Great coffee! The best one that I had in Santa Barbara! Definitely a must go for coffee lovers!

Absolutely the best Americano I've had since 1856. Highly recommended.

Great coffee, quality food & awesome atmosphere. The vegan almond butter is insanely delicious!

They have at the French press very nice coffee, and desserts. I don't drink coffee but I go there often with my children who love their coffee and say it's one of the best.

It's a cute shop. Their French press is a bit pricey in my opinion but it's really tasty and the staff is really friendly and helpful.

Excellent service. They serve Dune coffee in a lot of different blends. Vanilla latte is awesome.

This is a gorgeous space that maintains the classic neighborhood cafe vibe well. Outdoor seating on both sides of the block, plenty of indoor seating, good music, basic but fly decor, and outlets for a couple hours of work or studying. Although I didn't get to actually sample their coffee, I did purchase bottled Kombucha and some art from the currently displayed artist. The staff was very helpful, attentive, and friendly​, and I always appreciate that. Will definitely stop in for a drink the next time I'm in town!

Love this place. Employees are nice and coffee is delicious. Recommend stopping by here worth it. Price is same as Starbucks (but coffee is better here).

I had high expectations for The French Press, but it fell short. The coffee was disappointingly bitter, and the slow service at the 1101 State St, Santa Barbara, CA 93101, USA location left me frustrated. I'm uncertain if I'll return for another visit.
