10 Best Coffee Shops in Pismo Beach

“Great place to stop by for a coffee. I ordered iced latte with almond milk and pumpkin bread. Bread was nice but they use chai powder for the latter and they didn’t even mix it properly. It was ok for the taste but just something to keep in mind. It was so weird to literally have powder getting in your drink while you sip.“

“It's the first time I visit a coffee shop inside a surf shop. Initially I thought I was at the wrong place and looked around a little confused. The barista is probably used to it and was very nice and patiently waited for me to figure out it was the right place.

The menu has the classic coffee shop offerings but also offers a which was very intriguing. There were lots of good choices and I'll definitely be back to try the Smoked Iced Americano some other day.

I ordered the Salted Caramel Latte. It was a perfectly balanced drink and the bruleed sugar at the top was so good. The sweetness was just enough and didn't cover the taste of the coffee.

The service took the experience to another level. The barista was friendly and welcoming. He showed great attention to detail and had that beautiful latte art on top before he finished the drink off with the bruleed sugar.

I highly recommend this place and it will be my go to spot for coffee anytime I'm in the area.“

“I've been to Breezeway Cafe once, and the folks who run the place are sweethearts. My partner spilled his Americano, and they remade it for him, which they didn't have to do. Their portions are enormous. A side of bacon and biscuits with gravy will last you, or at least me, two meals. The Strawberry Dream was great, perfect amount of ice cream, strawberries, and breading. My only feedback is both the gravy and breading could use a little more salt, but I'm sure I could ask for that next time. I wish they weren't 300 miles away from where I live“

“Recommend by a friend, this is by far the best coffee I've had while visiting the US. I might even say the best coffee I've ever had. Killer Scorpion latte, smashed it. The cinnamon bun was pretty good too. From a proud Yorkshireman, admitting to liking coffee this much isn't easy!“

“Love this coffee shop! I was very impressed with their customer service direct from the owner herself when I was in there today. Thank you for being an amazing local spot I can take my little family to 🤍“

“I stopped by Surfside Donuts in Pismo Beach on a Friday to try their vegan donuts, and they were so good. They were soft, fresh, and flavorful, and you'd never guess they were vegan. It's wonderful to have a true vegan option at a classic donut shop, and the staff was friendly and welcoming.

My one wish is that they offered vegan donuts every day, not just Fridays. It would be great for plant-based customers, and it would also help anyone who's lactose intolerant or allergic to eggs. Even so, I'm so glad they offer them. Thank you, Surfside Donuts!“

“Their lattes are superior unfortunately their espresso machine appears to always be broken :/“

“The Banana bread is good. I go there everytime Im in Pismo“

“Hotlix Jumbo Black Licorice is my new favorite!

It’s the perfect firmness; not soft and gooey. I grew up with real black licorice that was on the firm side and even chewed on licorice root!

This is very familiar 💛

And the flavor is awesome ✌🏽“

“I had a small issue with my previous order, but Wendy, the manager, personally reached out to apologize and quickly resolved it. She was incredibly kind and helpful, and the corrected order exceeded my expectations. I really appreciated the great customer service and will definitely be returning to this McDonald’s. This establishment truly showed that they care about their customers. 🍟😊“
