Stopped by Captain + Stoker and really enjoyed it. The matcha latte was DELICIOUS, best matcha yet!…read moreI subbed oat milk and a little vanilla sweetener and it was perfect. Service was quick and friendly, and parking was super easy with plenty of open spots nearby. When I got there there was no line at all, but by the time I left there was a line out the door, which definitely says something. I didn't try the food this time, but everything coming out looked amazing. Looking forward to going back!

The pasties from Manresa bread are killer. I got a chocolate banana bread that was decadent. My son got a very flaky Kouign Amann that he really enjoyed. The coffee is also quite good.

San Juan Batista, what a cute town with a delicious roaster and cafe. We received a bag of coffee…read moreas a gift from here and I was sad when it was all gone. So happy we finally paid a visit. My husband and I both got our regular vanilla lattes and I got a chorizo burrito while he ordered a regular breakfast burrito. Everything was delicious!! (Highly recommend, but you don't have to take my word for it.) We came back a couple weeks later and this time I got the Spellbound (i believe it's a cappuccino with briwn sugar). Their coffee is so smooth and has a nice body. I'm so happy we have a café to go to that's local and flavorful. (It might just take the lead on my Taylor Lane...)

Way beyond coffee! It may not be obvious from the outside, but Vertigo offers a lot more than just…read moregreat coffee drinks. They have: * breakfast items like avocado toast & breakfast burritos * salads * great sandwiches * wood-fired pizza * dessert pastries * A nice selection of micro-brew beers on tap Service is fast, and they're happy to explain the menu or recommend things. The atmosphere is laid back and relaxed. There is indoor seating and a nice patio area (which is dog friendly). My favorite sandwich is the buratta - roasted cherry tomatoes, basil, pesto, and balsamic vinegar on a ciabatta roll. (I always split it with my dog.) By the way, the name is an homage to the classic Alfred Hitchcock film "Vertigo" (1958). The climactic scene in the movie was filmed at Mission San Juan Bautista.

We were in town for a street festival. We wanted to start the day with some coffees…read more This location is right on the main street. So there was a line. The barista s kept the line moving. Good thing I pre read the menu. When I got to the front, the barista said what do you want. Not the most polite greeting. But I truly understand that this was not a normal day. So I quickly explained what we wanted. The coffee was good. A nice smooth roast. Because of the crowds, I didn't get to look around. Is it just me, or has coffee really gotten expensive.

The flavors just meshed together and were so good I was super happy to see they had gluten free treats, in a separate space than the gluten ones, so I grabbed the cranberry polenta pastry - that was also heavenly!
