46 Best Coffee Shops in Ventura

“Love ❤️ les meilleurs CroiSSants de Ventura 🥰“

“Great coffee and amazing location“

“Having locally made Indian food for a late breakfast is one of my favorite things in the world. So grateful to have this cafe downtown. Best to text their number during June and July 2026 to confirm their hours. Please support this local business!“

“Delicious espresso and delightfully foamed milk - made to perfection, Mocha and Americano. The baristas were so wonderful. Loved our conversations while the drinks were getting prepared. Didn’t get to try the wine today but the vibe is great and we will be back!“

“Coffee, scones, service are great“

“Beacon Coffee is a reminder that great coffee doesn’t need to be complicated. The menu is simple, the atmosphere is clean and welcoming, and the focus is exactly where it should be: on making an excellent cup of coffee.

Every drink feels thoughtfully crafted, letting the quality of the beans speak for themselves instead of covering them up with endless flavors and toppings. If you appreciate coffee for what it is, this place is absolutely worth a visit.

As a bonus, my son absolutely loved the blueberry muffin. It was fresh, delicious, and the perfect pairing with an already great coffee experience. Sometimes the simplest approach creates the best experience, and Beacon Coffee does that beautifully.“

“I got a juice from here at the farmers market it was a large blue drink. That was Sunday it’s now Wednesday night, I can’t stop thinking about it. It was so good and made me feel healthy too , I drank it all that day. Only reason I give 4 instead of 5 stars is bc it’s really expensive . They told me the large was 15, then they said with tax that’s 17.50$ . This is the first time I’ve paid tax at the farmers market anything else is a solid price, corn is 5.00 flat, nuts are 5$ flat, huge agua Fresca is 10$ flat you get where I’m going with this. It’s delicious however paying 17$ for a drink did hurt. I mean that’s the price of a meal these days. Drink flavor taste etc 5/5 price 2/5.“

“Best açaí bowl, hands down, especially their butter bowl! Excellent coffee and matcha 😋 🍵“

“So good, a hidden gem! I’m not usually a big fan of bagels, but the bagel was absolutely the star of the show when it came to our sandwiches. And they didn’t skimp on any ingredients (plenty of avocado, meat, and cheese). The lox sandwich was great and came with a house dill mustard sauce. The bagels were big and almost fluffy. Thanks Patricia!“

“Coffee, scones, service are great“

“Excellent Havana cappuccino and customer service, Peet’s never disappoints!!!“

“Excellent latte. Lovely little place off the beaten path“

“They are the best. Very light and delicious. The ownerd are great. friendly and will give you tge best offer. I have bought the 12 jam donuts once since i usually end with the better bigger box for all.Have even turned my detist into a customer. They will be at the Fair this.“

“I had jury duty at the Ventura courthouse and when I was through, I was starving so I decided to go to eggs and things I ordered the chorizo, scrambled eggs, and English muffin with strawberry raspberry preserves and then of course you get the Swedish pancake, which is exactly why I’m so obsessed with this place. The service was spectacular. I got iced tea to drink. I never waited for anything. Everything was always there. The owner of the of the restaurant was so nice. Make sure everything was good. I can’t wait to go back. I’ll actually make a special trip to go to that exit and things particularly cause the service was so great and the honor was so nice.“

“I always drive past this coffee shop and never stop, but I finally had time and decided to stop in and was pleasantly surprised. I love how prospect positions itself as a coffee shop for the people and for the community. The coffee is great the staff is nice and the space is great for meeting up with friends or working solo.
We got a vanilla latte, vanilla matcha and the espresso tonic which was surprisingly mild.“

“Great breakfast, bloody Mary's and staff!“

“Shout out to Maggie helping out on a last minute coffee order for Eater Sunday at our church! Maggie and her team always come through for everyone. We appreciate their love and support. Thank you!“

“I work nights in Ventura Russell's 🍩 saved my life sooooo many times with that Breakfast sandwich Mmmmmm.“

“Best Bagels around hands down!👍“

“Delicious chewy boba! I had ordered the jasmine milk tea with sugar boba and pudding. It is my go-to at every boba shop I go to. I ordered it with 25% sweetness. It was perfect!!! Not too sweet but enough
For a light dessert drink. I love working in different coffee and tea shops and there are plenty of seating here. They also have free WiFi available.“

“Nomnom nom!! Best sweet selection in town and have to try their other items since I've been hooked on their tarts since moving here 4yrs ago.

Friendly staff, clean eatery. Visit if you're hungry for some delicious, decadent sweets. Or try their breakfast burritos, breakfast quiche, or salads and pizzas!“

“friendly staff, great coffee, easy access“

“One Black Espresso is my go-to. I always receive my order within a few days of ordering. Love the subscription service 😊“

“Such a chill place to get coffee (best in town) and work. Amazing food and even more amazing people ❤️“

“These folks seriously make the best chai latte I’ve ever had in my life. No sugar-loaded mixes, but rather a strong, spicy chai tea brewed in-house. And their baked goods are delectable, even featuring a selection of gluten free and vegan delights. Their customer service is stellar, too. Singing Sun is in a convenient midtown location - at the corner of Main St and Santa Cruz - and is not to be missed. But please leave me a vegan scone.“

“Excellent service from the young men who were there working. They were very friendly and my drink was perfect“

“Compliments to Gayla, the mixers and roasters at Moore Coffee. I thought the Classic Espresso was the best. Surprisingly I find the 805 with an even more complex and rich flavor. My espresso machine labors thru the finely ground mixture and takes an eternal 30-40 seconds producing a thick crema that is almost half the shot. Good work guys!I've never been to the brick and tin but I suspect great service and atmosphere. What could be bad about the aroma of fresh roasted coffee.Fabulous!Urban Cowgill April 2024“

“Another weekend, another coffee review ✨

For this spot… I had mixed feelings.

Walking in, I loved the vibe—super cozy couches where you can sit while waiting, plus tables if you want to dine in. They also had beautiful paintings displayed (I believe for sale), which made the space feel really unique and fun to look around.

I started with my usual: a sugar-free vanilla oat latte. Unfortunately, it was pretty bland and lacked flavor, so I had to go back and get a side of cold foam to make it better.

BUT their açaí smoothie?? SO good. Super fresh, not overly sweet—honestly perfect. I’d definitely come back just for the smoothies over the coffee.

For food:• The #2 avocado toast was AMAZING. The spicy honey drizzle with fresh bacon took it to another level.• The Seward sandwich was just okay—very plain (egg, ham, tomato, onion), nothing special.• The breakfast burrito though… sooo good. Paired with their serrano sauce, it hit every time. I’d 100% order that again.

Service-wise, they only had one girl working the front—taking orders and making drinks—and she handled it so well. Super sweet and did an amazing job.

Overall, not a bad experience at all—but I’d come back for the food and smoothies, not the coffee. 🤍“

“Our new favorite breakfast place“

“FANTASTIC!!!!!! What a great find - I had a chorizo, onion and cheese, omelette, house, potatoes, and homemade biscuits, and everything was absolutely delicious! Great service too!“

“A nice place to chill on a Saturday afternoon at Main St in downtown“

“First off, I absolutely LOVED my shaken brown sugar cinnamon oat milk with Maui milk!! The atmosphere was awesome, I enjoyed the sitting area, and it was such a good versatile space to meet with clients, hang out, get some work done and enjoy a sweet treat as well! I can't wait to go back and try some of their baked goods!“

“Your usual donut place that also serves breakfast croissant sandwiches. Easy free parking lot. Friendly staff. We ordered a half dozen donuts. They even gave us a free twist! TY! The buttermilk donut was perfect. Dense and soft at the same time. Perfect sweetness.“

“I went to Mai's for Pho on a rainy day. It was very warm and comforting, flavors were great and size was generous. The meat wasn't my favorite, I wish I got chicken. Atmosphere is very casual. The kpop demon hunters music played 5 times in a row before they finally changed it. Loved the food, good spot in a strange neighborhood.“

“1. Employees are friendly. 2. Chocolate croissants have barely a thin layer of chocolate. I was disappointed!!! Resembled a plain croissant. actually the chocolate was in one corner only of the croissant. 3. Good lattes.“

“It was an amazing experience. Customer service was amazing. We took a two year old and a 12 year old and they were so good with them. The decor was beautiful and we got some beautiful flowers to bring home.“

“Wow Hit me with your Best shot I haven't had Starbucks in almost 2 months I had just a regular coffee with extra creamy milk and one little thing of sugar and man that cleaned me out and jumped me and I had to go do a deposition and I was like jumping up and down and wiggling and I couldn't even hold still yeah it was good coffee“
