    Just tried this coffee shop after lunch and my hubby ordered mocha espresso which he liked. He is an avid coffee drinker and it is kind of difficult for him to last the day without coffee plus all the more to find a coffee shop that suits his taste. Service was fast and efficient despite of the line and price is reasonable. Cute and quaint coffee shop. Give this place a try if you are looking for coffee along State St., Santa Barbara.

    strawberry matcha

    Did i order a matcha at a place that has coffee in its name and was I surprised it wasn't great? yes-silly me. I ordered a strawberry matcha and what I did love about it was that the milk was a strawberry milk and it tasted like they used real strawberries and not an artificial strawberry flavor. the matcha tho is definitely not something to write home about. Beautiful drink but will definitely stick with coffee next time

    I went to Santa Barbara and while exploring downtown I stopped by Dune Coffee to try it out. The place is cute, very aesthetic, the mug as well, the staff were friendly but their coffee is not that good.

    (Overall: D) - I got a Vanilla Latte, and in addition to a very lengthy 20 minute wait for the drink, I found the quality to be quite poor. First, the syrup was not well incorporated into the drink, which is problematic when it is an iced drink. Second, the drink is too diluted and there is no coffee flavor. They are quite spacious, which can serve as a good study spot, but it would help if they had better drinks.

    Ice Strawberry Milk Matcha

    During my trip to Santa Barbara, I stumbled upon this coffee place. I tried it once and had to come back for another visit before leaving! The service was fast, and everyone was really friendly. I ordered the Iced Strawberry Milk Matcha it looked beautiful and tasted delicious. I can't wait to come back and try it again!

    We went to Dune Coffee Roasters on State Street during a weekend getaway with two other couples, and this place absolutely hit the mark. The day before, we stopped at Handlebar for matcha, but it was honestly really watered down and just not great. So the next day we gave Dune Coffee a try, and wow, this was exactly what we were anticipating in terms of flavor and quality. The ceremonial grade strawberry matcha was phenomenal. Hands down one of the best matchas we have ever had. They actually use real strawberries that are crushed into it, and it even had this strawberry dust sprinkled on top. The flavor was so smooth, not too bitter, not too sweet, just perfect. My wife and I are total matcha connoisseurs down in Orange County, and we were blown away by this one. The drinks were gone within seconds. Our friends that were with us own a coffee shop, and even they were super impressed with the espresso and how fresh and flavorful the beans were. You can tell this is a true coffee place where they care about the craft and the quality. We also grabbed a croissant and a chocolate croissant, both really flaky and delicious. Not sure if they were made in-house, but they tasted like they were. Everything from the drinks to the pastries was just on point. If you are visiting Santa Barbara and want a spot that actually takes pride in what they make, this is it. We will 100 percent be coming back every time we are in town! Thank you for the staff being super sweet and kind as well!

    Very busy place mid morning on a Saturday. A local farmers market was nearby too. Our coffee was great, just as we ordered it. They had these cool clay cups you could get your coffee in, if you choose, which is very eco-friendly.

    The Cocoa Puffs mocha was so good! I got it decaf and it was perfect, loved the flavors. The coffee shop is super cute and friendly staff and good vibes!

    Iced Tres Leche Latte
    Jonathon G.

    Stumbled upon this coffee roaster while exploring Santa Barbara and I'm glad we did. The iced tres leches latte was really good. I ordered it half sweet and it was perfect, not overpowering at all. The atmosphere is great too, super chill and a nice spot to grab a coffee and just sit back and relax. I also tried a croissant, which was okay but nothing special. That said, the coffee itself definitely stood out. I ended up buying a bag of beans to take home. Overall, a cool spot worth stopping by if you're in the area.

I did not visit during it's peak hours, though there still was a line out the door when I went mid-afternoon. The wait in line didn't seem too long and I was entertained / distracted by the merchandise that was out on display on the way to the register. I ended up pulling two coffee bags -- one for me (Brazil) and one as a gift for my sister (Gibraltar). I would love to be able to try the entire assortment of coffee beans. Love the packaging. The ambiance is open and spacious inside. Lots of space for seating indoors and there are places outside as well. I noticed a lot of students would come here to study or others who would go there to meet with friends or just a place to hang out. I would come back for sure next time I am back in the area and would like to try a food item next time and a matcha drink next time.

And this lovely cafe can get really busy. This is also the caje cafe where I tried their hot cocoa for the first time and aclaim it to be one of THE BEST HOT COCOAS EVER!!! It is really easy to swoon over the magical drink choices here, and not get something so plain like a coffee or cocoa. But everything caje does is excellent. And, wow, this is rich, pure, wonderful hot cocoa. Get with their house made almond milk. It is very low sugar and made with excellent quality chocolate, so actually close to a medicinal drink. Tip: For hot drinks here always ask for extra hot. Sit outside in their parked courtyard. Comfy seats perfect for people watching, reading, and friend chats. A few charming seats inside too. Always ask for extra hot

On June 5th between approximately 9:00 AM and 9:15 AM, I ordered a Strawberry Milk Matcha at the State Street location. The drink I received looked significantly different from the advertised product and appeared improperly prepared. When I politely asked about it, the employee immediately became defensive and repeatedly insisted that the drink was correct instead of taking a moment to understand the concern. Fortunately, another employee stepped in and offered to remake the drink, which I appreciated. What disappointed me most was the customer service. When I asked the employee for his name so I could provide feedback, he told me that I did not need to know his name and that it was irrelevant for me to know. I found that response surprisingly unprofessional. Mistakes happen. Drinks can be remade. What matters is how customers are treated when they raise concerns respectfully. I spoke with a manager afterward, who apologized for my experience, but I left feeling that the issue was minimized rather than truly addressed. I choose local businesses over large chains whenever possible. That's exactly why this experience was disappointing. I hope this feedback is taken constructively because Dune has built a strong reputation in our community and I would like to see that standard upheld.
