8 Best Coffee Roasters in Santa Cruz

“11th hour coffee is the best in town! Small batch quality direct trade coffee roasted with love. Happy to support a local growing business in the community.“

“I have been here a few times. There's always a line (because it's popular!) but the service is quick. Even though there are several varied options on the menu, my choice is Americano, which comes by default with four shots of espresso, exactly as I like it. The staff are friendly and helpful. There is adequate seating outside, or just walk and sip.“

“(Check Auntie Mame's for part 1)

Okay so I was put onto these coffee beans by the employees over at Auntie Mame's because we had gotten breakfast and I had to know where they got the beans from and I'm so glad I stopped by before I had to end my vacation and head home. I ended up leaving with at least 2 and a half pounds of coffee grounds. As soon as you walk in your hot with the most amazing aroma of coffee beans mixing together. Murphy was there at the store when my girlfriend and I came by and he was happy to talk and tell us all bout the different kinds of beans they had and a little bit about the shop itself. He was such a dope dude to sit and chat with and he really seems passionate about what he does and you can tell he enjoys it. Honestly, I'm glad I met him and I hope more people stop by and try the coffee. I promise you won't be disappointed. I'm excited to get home and try some of the redrood spice coffee I picked up.“

“Good place to grab a coffee only steps away from the beach. They offer fun and inventive coffees, such as thin mint and raspberry truffle mochas, alongside everything else you'd expect. In addition to coffee, they offer bagels, pastries, and other snacks. The staff are friendly, and the drinks are good, but I did have an issue when my mocha wasn't stirred, as well as my friend's on one of the visits. Overall, it's a good place to grab a coffee, and the location is unbeatable.“
