    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.

    Freedom Coffee located between Crowne Plaza and Aloha Steakhouse!

    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!)

    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.

    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.

    Views with the drink, cute pink cups!

    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.

    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.

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

    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.

    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.

    Staff is friendly. Limited seating. We ordered and was told to pick up our drinks at the counter…read more Initially wanted the chicken and waffles but based on the pics on yelp, the waffle is very inconsistent (size, homemade vs eggo, etc). Due to that, we switched gears on what we ordered. Iced americano: phenomenal. Very smooth yet bold and refreshing Paneer dosa: a bit of a let down for me. I was not expecting it to be a plain dosa and chutney on the side. Masala dosa: this was better since it was filled with potato. Chicken sandwich: loved this, very juicy and balanced. Side of fries was excellent. The sandwich is small, just bigger than a slider. Finished in 4 bites. Fries with gunpowder: when we got this, it looks exactly like the regular fries. We figured they mustve forgot that we asked for gunpowder seasoning. We went back to ask for more seasoning, expecting them to just sprinkle it on. They were kind enough to remake it and bring it to us, which was very thoughtful. This time we could see the seasoning, but unfortunately they didn't taste any different. Don't get me wrong, the fries themselves were great- amazing crispy texture, but adding seasoning didn't do anything for them. Overall the hits were the Americano and Chicken Sandwich. Service here is fantastic, and the vibe is awesome as well. This is somewhere I'd stop for a small bite, but not the fill up.

Parking can be tricky since there are EV chargers and other locations at Gasworks. If parking lot is full, theres street parking around the area. This specific spot, they do have their busy times so be prepared to wait if you do come during one of those times. I have been lucky and have gotten there when there wasnt a line out the door. Anytime I go I have to get pie. Skylar Bryce's pies are delicious. I have tried their matcha latte can and vanilla latte can. They were both really good. First place I think my husband and I have found where we would go buy cans from. Have gotten their tiramisu latte and biscuit. Both so good. The biscuit was so fluffly. Jam and butter it came with so good with it. Overall, have loved my experience here even though its been mainly to go. Weve been meaning to go back to actually sit and enjoy food and drinks there.

    This cafe is sooo beautiful- I truly feel like I'm somewhere in Europe in a large open patisserie…read more It is typically super crowded her, so if you can find seating, count yourself lucky. I love their pastries, but the recent price increases do make them a luxury item. Kouign Amann are my fave, but any of their croissants are also great. I haven't really tried their drinks. Had a Hot chocolate at the Camarillo location, and they even had a little latte art in the milk foam. A beautiful space to enjoy, but pricey overall. Service is usually fine, not overly friendly but that is also due to being so busy that they need to move the lines quickly and efficiently.

She had the chicken salad. She said it was just chicken with mayo. The croissant was dry. The iced tea tasted like coffee unfortunately. The gentleman that delivered our food just plopped the plates down and walked away. No gluten free options only macaroons! First time at this location normally go to Camarillo and TO so I was expecting the same great food and service. There was a napkin on the ground directly under our table. The ledge by window was dirty! Just disappointing!
