Great coffee and safe place. LGBTQ friendly. ‍Also dog friendly. Could bring doggies inside and they got treats.

This place was amazing! The service was outstanding! The drinks were the best in town! Defiantly recommend going here. That atmosphere was very neat as well. So many little decorations makes it super fun and awesome! Been here every morning on my vacation. read more

Friendly service and great coffee. Lots of options for caffeine intake and some good light breakfast choices plus super dog friendly.

Small place, full with love, and the best coffee I had in Oregon!!! If you seek for good coffee, go in. read more

They serve sleepy monk coffee and the staff are warm and friendly. Say no more. If you're driving it can be hard to see from the road because they are not on the street front but by foot you will see them tucked in the back, just look for the sign and arrow. Their lattes are great and we found their fruit smoothies to be an extra tasty treat with tons of flavor options to choose from. When I'm in town this will be my go-to coffee shop. read more

ummmmm....YES!! this place was INCREDIBLE! the decorations were adorable, and the animal crossing specials they had were so creative! i ordered an iced caramel oat milk latte, it wasn't cheap, but that didn't even bother me with the ambiance of this shop. it came out quickly, and was simply delicious. not only coffee, but the shirts and stickers they had here were also so much fun! would love to come back here again, nice servers, quick service, great coffee. read more

The Chai látte was delicious worth going a bit out of our way to find this coffee shop down near the beach in Seaside. My wife had a whole milk látte that was great too. We will definitely go back next time in Seaside read more

Really good coffee and the staff were so friendly and pleasant. It's an easy to miss shop, it's tucked inside a doorway to the side. Prices were reasonable. I'd go back! read more

Absolute FAVORITE coffee place. I'm a huge coffee fanatic and am very particular with my coffee. I asked for something kinda specific and they did it easily. Starbucks could NEVER! Tried other places in the area and this one was by far my favorite. Been going every day since I found it read more

Good coffee, dirty chai latte was super amazing and they have all the alternative milks. Everybody working was really sweet and friendly. Vibes are great too read more

My coffee was so good!! Definitely recommend. The barista was AMAZING and so helpful with drink recommendations. The only thing is I went back the next morning to get something else around 10am and on the door it said they open at 8pm but the whole building was locked up :( I checked social media to see if they were closed for the day but didn't see any updates there. read more

After reading all of the great reviews, I was excited to try this place. I didn't actually get a coffee here though because they pre-grind their decaf rather than grinding fresh per order. Some of us love the smell and taste of coffee, but dislike the heart palpitations and sweats they get from caffeinated coffee. We still deserve a good beverage. So many places in this town, like Seaside Coffee Roasters, use this practice. Ugh. Burly and the Bean and Brew 22 treat their decaf drinkers with the same respect as their caffeinated customers. read more

Not only was the coffee here amazing, but the barista was so nice and helpful when we weren't quite sure what to order. My boyfriend got the "pacific pearl", a salted caramel mocha made with Himalayan pink salt, culinary caramel, and Ghirardelli chocolate. I ordered the Polar Bear from their "bear" menu, which are coffees made with espresso infused with cinnamon and honey. It was amazing! Tasted like cinnamon sugar toast, but not too sweet at all which I prefer! The barista was kind and patient, and the location is less than a block from the beach so we got our coffees and enjoyed them on the beach! read more

Went here this afternoon and could not have had a better experience. Fantastic vibe and incredibly friendly staff. Their gifts and other non-coffee items were so cute and we loved that they focused on local queer artists. We got specialty drinks and they were delicious. Anytime we're in the are we're going to go here again for sure. read more

Controversial Coffee - Pacific Pearl Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Seaside, Oregon

Y'all. Controversial Coffee is the best thing to happen to my mouth since I first kissed my partner! I have been here 7 times and always stupidly convince myself that I'm too busy to leave a review but I am delaying no longer! I have had it with myself! I've made it a point to try a different drink every time, and EVERY SINGLE ONE has been PHENOMENAL. They always decorate the chalkboard in super cute ways too!! I'm just so thankful to find such a badass gem on the shore! Really was not expecting a place that is so open and doesn't care about conforming to any status quo. I don't think they've added themselves to the Slingshot Zine list of anarchist bookstores, but they really should so people know an amazing place like this exists here. Everyone is always super nice and I just. I can't say enough good things about this place. Okay thank you goodbye! read more

2 stars for serving the sleepy monk coffee and one start for convenient location near seaside beach-walk. Service was terrible, the place looks like it needs to have some maintenance done. Coffee was okay but the barista put way too much milk in my latte. read more

Great coffee, smoothies and other drinks. Funky coffee shop with some personality. Love it.

Great discovery and since it's new few were here while the other longtime coffee shops were too busy and slow. Try the grizzly bear, lovely! read more

Cute little coffee shop, nice to have a queer owned space! I got the Orkos spell. It was a little sweet for me, I still enjoyed it. My partner had the Chai, and liked it as well. read more

The Naked Bear was an iced coffee cinnamon concoction and it was amazing! Not too sweet, not at all bitter. read more

Controversial Coffee - Iced naked bear - cinnamony sweet and delicious !!! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Seaside, Oregon

Cute coffee shop right by the beach full of local crafts / arts. Wall decor also signaled they are LGBT friendly.

Best chai latte I've ever had. They make their drinks at drinking temperature which I thoroughly enjoyed. They were also so nice and seemed like a very fun coffee shop. read more

This is a hidden gem. We almost walked right past, but I'm so glad we didn't. The brown sugar cinnamon oat milk latte I got was delicious. My pup got a treat from the woman at the register and was very happy too. Great service and coffee! read more

The great white was awful. Not sure if the rest of the menu is as bad, but the white coffee was terrible.

More of a local spot than a tourist trap. Awesome options, awesomely made. Super nice people, too.

Really good coffee!! Great service, good vibes and a lot of good options. Kinda tucked away. The toffee mocha was bomb

Had high hopes. The menu looked good, friendly service, great location. We got a coffee and a latte and both took one sip, then threw away the $8 purchase. Coffee tasted like water and the latte tasted spoiled. Maybe it was a fluke since I saw good reviews. We threw away and went to a different coffee shop for our caffeine fix. read more

This is a fantastic gem in the streets back of the Seaside Prom. The coffee is fundamentally excellent, and the barist(x) skills outstanding. We had our breakfast here 3 days in a row this week - a different order each time (latte, cappuccino, macchiato, all superb). The croissant breakfast sandwich hit the spot. And there is no lack of conversation, or diversions to browse in store, while waiting fro your order Loved it. read more

Got a decaf Americano here in the afternoon, but ended up throwing it away after a few sips. It had a strange taste. I did not like the beans. The service was very friendly, and the coffee was prepared well. I just didn't care for the bean flavor. read more

My favorite coffee spot here in Seaside, family owned and very friendly, they have great coffee and an enormous selection. I would recommend one of their "bear" coffee drinks...cinnamon infused shots pulled over honey with flavoring...very good. To top it off, the music choice is on point! If you are in Seaside, definitely drop by. read more

Absolutely amazing place. I love the whole vibe and I adore that they are queer owned by a sweet and kind couple. A very accepting environment and delicious drinks. Their seasonal specials are always fun and different. My go to place whenever I'm in town. read more

Staff was fairly friendly but the coffee was awful. I got a mocha and I am certain there is no chocolate in it. There's really no flavor at all. I honestly hate leaving bad reviews but I was extremely disappointed and won't finish my drink. I came here because they got good reviews but I am super bummed read more

awesome. wonderful. pleasant. wow i love this coffee shop i came here on vacation and loved it so much i moved here!!! the baristas also helped me when i broke my foot on vacation. they are the kindest little souls. read more

The sweetest and most amazing people I've met in town work here. I cannot recommend this place enough. And the fun inverted experience attached! read more

This place is cool! Come join the fun and have some great coffee! It's at a great location and the staff are wonderful!

We won't speak of the S place when coming here :) all of the ladies that work here the 2 times we have come in were absolutely wonderful. Stopping back in on our way back to Seattle tomorrow because they were that great. Dirty Chai made from fresh spices and not a mix and my husbands vanilla latte were yummy and perfect. I love my chai and this was perfect especially with that shot of espresso. Ladies you are wonderful and when we come back to Seaside, you will always be a stop for us. Prices great, cute shop, friendly staff, wonderful coffees and teas. read more

I'm local and swing by Pacific Pearl for iced tea and a muffin every time I head downtown or the beach. Every once in awhile, I'll try some random drink off the coffee menu and, without fail, that's my "thing" for the next few weeks. Is it OK to put in a review that if one is battling a coffee addiction, Pacific Pearl is contra-indicated? lol And if the temps get too warm, everything above, but about smoothies. read more

After two days of mediocre hotel coffee, we decided to get up and go out for coffee. What a disappointment. The coffee here was gross - we ended up throwing ours away. I got one of the Bear drinks and the flavor was OK but I was just not a fan of the beans or the roast, they had a weird flavor. My husband's regular brew was pretty nasty and when he poured the creamer from the bell creamer they gave him it was curdled and gross so he had to throw away the first cup. Their excuse was that it just happens. If you're bothering with the show of a bell creamer how could it not be poured fresh?! They made him a fresh cup in a quarter of the time it took to make the first cup. So not sure if they cut corners or they just took their time the first time. (We were only people in the place the entire time we were there) The new cup was pretty nasty too. We should've asked for money back but we had already walked back to our hotel. I'd recommend finding another coffee spot! read more

Great Coffee and perfect flavors; they know their proportions and the mocha is neither too sweet or too chocolate. I am a fan of quality coffee so I get a 12 ounce quad to make sure I get the most of the coffee flavor and this was a winner. My wife loved her chai latte too. read more
