    Freedom coffee has the relaxed, communal, beachy vibes which embody the spirit of Ventura life. I stumbled upon Andy's coffee cart while enjoying a walk along the beach. I saw he uses Beacon coffee, a local Ventura coffee master IYKYK, so I was impressed. Parking is in a lot nextdoor within Aloha steakhouse. The service was quick and friendly. Andy is eager to make your drink exactly as you like it so don't be shy to ask about specialization for your drink. Like many Ventura locals he wants your return business. I ordered my usual oatmilk latte and I was pleasantly surprised it was not watered down or weak. I sat, sipped and watched the waves crash. It's an experience you should try. I highly recommend this coffee bar!!

    Freedom Coffee has the right offerings at the right location. It's a coffee stand on the boardwalk - it's that simple. They offer a few prepackaged food items. This is a super convenient place to get a quick drink to aid your sauntering down the boardwalk. The staff had the friendly beach vibe going on.

    Visiting Ventura for a quick little get away! Always looking to support local small businesses when I can. This little gem of a find was fantastic! Ordered the Hawaiian Latte with a poppy seed lemon muffin and my husband had a flat white with a cinnamon coffee cake muffin. I love coffee and savor every sip, picking up in the different flavors and aromas. I love love loved my Hawaiian Latte! Just the right amount of coconut and macadamia nut and I loved the fact that oat milk is their go to for this drink. My husband enjoyed his flat white with his pump of vanilla. Their pastries were extremely fresh and delicious! Customer service was great and the location couldn't be anymore perfect and great choice of music playing in the background! If you're ever in the Ventura area, you must try Freedom Coffee!

    I ordered the hot Hawaiian Latte, it coconut and macadamia. The service has fast, and friendly. Just a small coffee cart by the pier. Very chill California vibe, the coffee was delicious, with stopping for

    Checked out this adorable little mobile coffee kiosk yesterday morning and it was great! From our hotel balcony, I noticed Freedom Coffee had a consistent line of happy customers so I figured we'd walk down to get some drinks ourselves. Andy, the cart owner/operator was very cheerful and friendly. We were surprised by his sizable menu considering the size of his shop. As someone that can't drink coffee, I was delighted to see he could make any drink on the menu with decaf. For the first time in 10+ years I was able to enjoy a quality coffee drink. I had the iced Coco Mocha with Decaf and oatmilk; it was so good that I'm left wondering why the heck I didn't go back for a second. My husband had an iced coffee with coconut added and enjoyed the quality of his beverage as well. Andy also had a small offering of pastries to accompany your beverage if you choose. The tea selection was also a good variety. Absolutely recommend Freedom Coffee.

    Amazing! The iced California latte was heavenly. I ordered and when my coffee was ready she brought it to me. Excellent customer service. Right on the beach. I parked in the structure and he didn't charge me since I was only there a few mins. Just a great experience overall! I will be back (I wish everyday!)

    Love walking the beach and enjoy a nice cup of coffee so its perfect Freedom Coffee is on the boardwalk. You can't miss it. I love the signs they have on walks directing people to their stand. You'll find it in between the parking lot and Crowne Plaza. I enjoy drinking plain black coffee but signature drinks always intrigue me. I always have to see if I can taste all the flavors/reminds me of what they are calling it. I had to try their Hawaiian latte. I had my little one with me so I got him a stroopwafel. I had never had one and I figured he wasn't going to finish it. Owner was there and he's super sweet. Very nice. Very friendly with my son too. I was impressed at my latte. Even before I tasted it I could smell the coconut in it. Very delicious. I am glad the espresso didn't over power the flavors. Whenever I need an extra boost and I am on my morning walk, I will be stopping here.

    This coffee cart is excellent! The coffee is great, the location is beautiful, and the service is always very pleasant. I love all the rare flavor choices they have, and that oatmilk is the standard for their drinks. I usually get the Hawaiian Latte because the macademia nut flavor is heavenly and reminds me of my trips to Hawaii. The prices are pretty decent, too. It's so nice to grab a coffee and walk the beautiful promenade or pier. It's a must try if you are in the area.

    I never knew this little coffee stand was here - I stumbled across it while talking a walk off the boardwalk. This is literally the definition of a hidden gem. I would've never expected the coffee to be so good. The espresso had such good flavor and mixed so well with the mocha. One of the best mochas I have ever had. Love that there is now a great place to get coffee on the boardwalk. I always love talking a walk here, so my walks are now going to be even better with a good place to stop for coffee. Highly recommend stopping here for your caffeine fix.

    Love that the default milk is Oatmilk specially, for your favorite lactose intolerant girly. I ordered the honey chai latte, which only comes in a 12 ounce size. It's very tasty - warm and sweet. I like a little more foam in my lattes, but that's just me personally. The employee was really friendly and happy to be in my Yelp pictures. She was also very warm and welcoming at 8:20 on a foggy day - she brought the sunshine and made a great drink to warm me up before I got out in the water to surf. The coffee cart is stationed right near surfers point near C St. just outside the Crowne plaza hotel. It's very convenient to get your morning coffee before you hit the surf.

    The best. Staff is always sweet and so nice to grab and go on a walk at the beach. Very convenient! The California latte (oat milk, vanilla, cinnamon) is so so good. I get it half sweet and it's the actual perfect drink. Big fan.

    Beautiful location, diversity ot teas. Perfect way to start your morning! Make sure you stop by to get your tea or coffee fix.

    Love their cups !
    Siria F.

    Coffee was great! The coffee cart vibes were chill. The coffee cups were my favorite! I love the location. We walked over from our hotel, got our coffee and walked the pier afterwards. There was a line but they served everyone rather quickly. We didn't feel like we waited that long. They have a good variety of coffee and food (breakfast) options to choose from. Will definitely be back next time we're in town.

It was in the morning on a Saturday when I came so there was a bit of a line but not too long. After about five minutes, I got a chance to order. I opted for an iced mocha. I would've liked to try one of the yummy looking croissants they had available from Pinyon but the people in front of me got the last one! After a couple of minutes, my order came out. Once I swirled everything together, I thought there was a good balance of everything! The syrup, the coffee, and the milk. It was a nice pick me up for the hot day ahead.

Unfortunately I was unable to locate the WiFi password and I didn't want to bother the two employees that appeared to be pouring coffee with love. I had an iced coffee cold brew with almond milk. A cold coffee in a glass cup makes such a difference in how cold the drink gets and the presentation. The latte was amazing! Perfect temperature. I went for the chocolate croissant, it was amazing! Little hint of salt sent it over the top. Just wish there was a warming option

We had to pay extra $1 I think for the flavor which wasn't even there. when I went to ask to remake a drink. They just wanted to add extra honey, which was not the only problem. They didn't really want to remake the drink It was during the heat wave and it was unbearable to sit inside a coffee shop so we decided to sit outside. We also had their love knot pastry, which was really good I think service was just OK. They didn't seem they wanted to remake the drink. Even when the drink was remade, it was still OK. I'm not impressed by this coffee shop anymore. I am unsure if I will be returning for coffee however I will recommend their pastry though.

My boyfriend and I were making our way south after visiting Ojai and it was the perfect spot :) The coffee shop itself is not super large inside but there is a beautiful patio with shade to get some work done. The interior is so pleasing to the eye because everything feels thoughtfully chosen, including the blush pink, sage green, and butter yellow appliances. There is a small glass room where they bake their pastries! Their menu has a great variety of items- fizzy options, pour overs, matcha drinks, and lots of flavored, specialty lattes to choose from. I ordered the palm court (pandan) latte, and my boyfriend ordered the pineapple spro-jito and a cortado. The palm court (in my opinion) is a 10/10. It is sweet but the pandan cold foam top tasted like a not-overly sweet ice cream that melted into the espresso flavor smoothly. The pineapple spro-jito has an insane, deliciously light pineapple foam that suits the fizzy espresso. It was sweeter than I anticipated, so I actually ended up drinking more of it than my boyfriend did. I can't really speak on the cortado because I didn't taste it but I love being able to immerse myself in a curated coffee experience! The drinks are expensive but they are a great treat and often come with fun toppings.
