We love this coffee shop and try to come every weekend for a family breakfast. Their breakfast burritos are yummy. We get the veggie one and a muffin every time we come. The location is wonderful and right next to the Sunken Gardens so if we fancy a walk while sipping our drinks we can go on one. The patio is dog friendly and they have extra outdoor seating in the parking lot. Mr. Paul and his family are very kind and remember people who come often. I would definitely recommend this establishment. read more

I love coming here when I'm downtown. The owner, Paul, is very nice and has been a part of our community forever. It's so nice to see his whole family working here still from time to time. I love their muffins and bagels, the jalapeno cheese bagel and chocolate chip muffin being my favorites. They have Thai tea which is always amazing. I also love their black velvet latte. They have lots of parking and a nice seating selection indoors and outdoors. They get slammed during downtown events but still serve quickly and accurately. read more

Their honeydew smoothie is absolutely delicious and if you like honeydew, you'll love it! Nicest people ever own and run this shop. It's my family's favorite place in town read more

They have the best coffee and the nicest people. Their burritos are good too. My kid also really likes getting ice cream from there.

The absolute best coffee ever! Good service every single time. Large mocha for me please.

Good coffee and great prices! Haven't tried any of the food but the brew coffee perfect.

I have NEVER had this happen to me. I've been in there many times through the years and spent a good amount of money at their business thinking they were good people. This morning while I was waiting for a friend to pick me up and thought I can just hang out for a few minutes to charge my phone. (I was sitting for about 10 minutes) The owner came rushing at me and yelled at me making a huge scene in front of a bunch of people calling me names and kicked me out because I didn't buy a coffee. (I've spent hundreds of dollars here). I graduated high school in this town and they treat people like that? It was extremely embarrassing not only for myself but for him and how verbally abusive he was. It seems like everytime I've gone in there the past couple years the owner and his wife have a stick up their ass. (Sorry for my language). I'm not assuming they are always like that or if they were just having a bad day, but that is no way to talk or treat a person. Especially someone who WAS a customer. Do better guys! Sorry, not sorry. read more

This place is so much better than Starbucks. Their Chai in all forms is amazing. It is a local favorite and a family ran business.

The ladies are so kind, but however the gentleman seems like he doesn't want to be there. This is the second time I have had the same experience with him and I will not be returning. read more

This family owned business is fantastic! Coffee is amazingly delicious! They offer smoothies, ice cream, breakfast burritos & more.

I love this place more then anything, I can always rely on amazing coffee/tea/ice cream, it's my favorite place to get some school work or paperwork done or even to take my dog to and play in the park after read more

This has to be the best place to go for coffee. We have been going for a while now and every time it is consistently good. The owners are awesome!! Very sweet and accommodating. They are dog friendly for the outside tables and I have even seen the owner come out and give the dog a treat. Not sure if that's every time but very thoughtful. Its a small quaint place but perfect for coffee shop. They do have a drive thru, you just pull up and someone comes out to take your order. We always get their iced mocha which never comes out with the burnt taste like some other well known place does. If you are hungry, they serve bagels, muffins, pastries, and breakfast burritos. Have not had the food yet but it all looks good. Definitely love supporting this coffee shop and will be going here for a long time. read more

Best Chai Latte in Slo County! I was excited to find one! I will be coming back here time and time again. Then their fresh muffins are off the chart! They are all so fresh and melt in your mouth. Take it to-go and walk around the cute Atascadero park for a perfect morning. read more

My husband and I were staying in town with our two dogs so we were looking for a morning coffee place to enjoy. We were staying at the Carlton Hotel and after taking the dogs on a walk at Stadium Park we headed over to Malibu Brew Coffee. I love Chai Tea Latte and theirs was exceptional! My husband likes dark roast coffee and he was pleased with his drink too. We shared a bagel with cream cheese and a chocolate muffin. I'm not a big chocolate muffin fan but this one was really good! The bagel was good but with a little more cream cheese it would have been great! We loved the water bowls they had out for the dogs and one of the workers came by and gave our dogs each a biscuit. That was a really nice touch! We went back the next day mainly because I had to have another Chai Latte! So happy we found this lovely place! read more

Excellent spot! Outside seating was shaded and breezy. My coffee drink and cookie, super yummy. I loved the surprise of the flowers inside... and the kindness of the man who served me. Will definitely be back! read more

My boyfriend found this place while we were in town. And honestly...I loved what I got. I'm hesitant to try Chai Tea at new places because sometimes it just doesn't come out good. We walked in and were immediately welcomed in, the place was very cute. I order my chai tea and a breakfast burrito while the bf had Mocha with bagel. Great experience, service was great. The food was good ambit most importantly the drink. I honestly cannot wait to go back if I'm ever in the area again. read more

I cannot believe I have never been here before! This coffee place is right in the main square in Atascadero off of the park. The lady serving us was the owner; she was the sweetest woman and so helpful with choosing out my order. I got a chai latte with the peach muffin. The chai latte was PHENOMENAL. It had a hint of nutmeg in it which made it extra spicy and unique. I love a chai latte on a cold day, and Malibu Brew really exceeded my expectations with this drink. One of the best chai lattes I have had in a while. I ordered the peach muffin as a recommendation from the owner. This peach muffin was arguably the softest muffin I have ever had. It literally melted in my mouth in a sweet array of flavorful goodness. You could tell that they used real peaches in the recipe because it was tangy and sweet; just like a real peach! I am so happy I discovered this place! I will be returning back for sure! read more

Absolutely love this coffee shop and their new location. I have taken a large group here twice so far and they have been so helpful and accommodating to our group of 10+ ladies! I highly recommend the iced chai or getting some ice cream that they serve, it's all good! They have a lovely patio that fits large groups with a perfect view of the Sunken Gardens across the street. We love Malibu Brew!!! read more

Malibu Brew Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Atascadero, California

Super tiny and cute place to grab coffee and, if you're so inclined, a carb-licious snack. The owner and his wife were there when we (and a little morning rush) arrived. They have a "drive up" option, where the owner runs out, asks what you want (though he seemed to know nearly everyone and what they wanted to drink already) and then they run it out to your car when it's ready. We went inside to order our drinks. Two cappuccinos, but mine with heavy whipping cream. Well made, good tasting espresso, super friendly service. I love patronizing a local, family-owned business. When in the area, I'll certainly stop here again! read more

Can you go wrong with this place? Maybe but I don't know how. Solid joint. Has a breakfast burrito that ain't bad. Has a bagel that ain't bad either. Coffee ain't bad. Nothing bad. Just good stuff. read more

Absolutely wonderful place if you want to grab a quick coffee or a snack. i've been going here for about five years and this is where I choose just about every time read more

This was the cutest place! So friendly and down home... You can tell a family runs it. The ambiance is just old time comfortable... LIke a candy store atmosphere. You expect to see guys in there playing checkers or nowdays, on their laptops! When we arrived this cute young girl was running a Chai out to a car! Drive through service without the window! My friend got a Chai and I got a LITE Mocha... (who am I fooling??) The pastries all looked tempting but didn't dare go there! Anyway, the coffee was great the service was friendly and quick and I have to question anyone who one stars this place must not be a happy person! I thought it was great! I think it would be a great place for a writer to write! Hmmmmmm..... read more

This is the best coffee EVER! They just opened in a new location across the street from where it used to be and it's amazing! I am a totally coffee snob and I've had coffee in many different places and countries. This is my favorite. It's so smooth and flavorful. Try a vanilla-spice chai either by itself or with a shot of espresso. Also, the hazelnut latte is Sooooo goooood! This shop is in the heart of downtown atascadero and you will love it, the service you'll get and the views of the downtown sunken gardens. read more

I love Malibu Brew. We're here every weekend and I try to sneak in on weekdays any chance I can. The blends of coffee are personally selected by the owner and their specialty drinks are absolutely delicious and perfect everytime. The best part for us though is their pet friendly patio seating in the back with their beautiful rose garden. Where else can you go and drink your coffee in a rose garden, have a breakfast burrito or a bagel, and watch your dog play? read more

Amazing amazing amazing lil family-owned coffee shop! The parents and their daughter that work there are so nice and I love their doggie rocket!!! Lovely outdoor seating spaces, feels so comfortable and you feel at home! Their black velvet is crazy good and straight up feels and tastes like velvet, I wish I lived close to here, I would be here everyday read more

I just stopped by here this morning because it is close to our hotel. There seems to be lots of locals and the owner and his wife seem to be familiar with the patrons. It's the kind of place that I'd go back to as the service is great. Everyone is right on in that the coffee is delicious! read more

Oh man, this place goes in the worst of the worst. The espresso that is. I ordered a cappuccino. Poor little lady burnt the espresso as well as the milk. I couldn't hardly finish a quarter of it. If this was a take out breakfast burrito place then it would be a five star! (but it's not, it's a coffee house). I had the veggie burrito and it was great. It was perfect timing that I had just meandered upon this place looking for a quick breakfast while travelling to San Luis. read more

Malibu Brew Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Atascadero, California

Looking for coffee while driving up or down Hwy 101, stopped in Atascadero to see if maybe, just maybe there would be a Starbucks. But low and behold a 'mom and pop' coffee shop appeared! It was great. I've been there twice now, had plain coffee the first time and a latte the second. My husband had a great cappuccino both times with an extra shot . . . and we were soooo happy! It's good! And besides that, they have a great breakfast sort of burrito! Spicy, delicious and filling! The owner is Asian, very cool, very helpful and understands service. We'd go there instead of trying to drive down into San Luis from now on. Oh and must mention the funky and dog friendly 'back yard/patio'. read more

Malibu Brew Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Atascadero, California

I visited Atascadero this passed weekend with my friend and we decided to try Malibu Brew Coffee. The owners were so kind and helpful in our selection and took time to have conversations with their customers and talk to them after they got their coffee too. Super delicious drinks, bagels, and such kind people! read more

Not covid compliant at all. Customers were allowed to congregate inside store without masks or social distancing measures. I felt very uncomfortable and left because of this. Staff seemed nice but could have done much better at making customers feel safe. read more

So disappointed today to see this shop violating the social distancing order. No restaurants or cafes are supposed to be allowing customers to sit and loiter. There were at least 12 people on the patio posted up. Social distancing has been ordered for our own safety. read more

Quality local coffee shop . This family has provided the best service for years. There a staple In our community and enjoy everything they have to offer. read more

You want friendly, fast, tasty espresso drinks Malibu Brew is the place to be! The owner was super friendly when we walked in, even while he multitasked and ran outside to get orders from his "drive thru" in front of the store's door. They worked so fast and efficiently together that the wait seemed to very reasonable for everyone. Our cappuccinos were tasty with local care and love. We will be back next time we visit our friends in the area. read more

this is a cute place, a great place to hang out. don't order a cappuccino as it is brewed with realy bitter coffee. maybe we shouldn't expect it as we got used to them in Europe where they are nice and cream read more

Super friendly and helpful staff! Family owned, which is always nice to see. They make great drinks and I love their burritos! Great to grab a coffee and sit on the patio in the mornings. read more

My favorite coffee spot in the north county. I will even drive from paso on occasion. I love their iced Thai tea as well.

Cute little shop with drive in but horrible options and customer service. They don't make anything in house so no modifications possible even their burritos. If you ask any specific questions such as where they get the bagels or pastries and what's in them the guy who owns the shop will become very defensive saying it's just a bakery and that's it pushing you to order or leave. All these reviews of friendly owners must be their friend not real patrons. Absolutely would not support a place like this when there is the wonderful Back Porch Bakery right down the street which has fantastic bagels and much better customer service and coffee. read more

I love that the owners care so much that you are happy here! As a fellow downtown business I love sending my guests to other business where I know they will get great service and excellent quality on the items they purchase. I am so happy that the forced move to a new location has turned out to be a great improvement to customer access and the location seems much more appealing to me here! Hats off to you neighbor! read more

Love the new location. Now with 16 flavors of Doc Bernstein's ice cream! Best coffee and service in SLO county. read more

I used to be a frequent customer but now I am utmost disappointed. Went into the new building with friends, one friend had a service dog. We were approached by the owner of the cafe and was told she couldn't bring him in. She explained the circumstances and showed him the tag saying he was a service dog. He continues to make comments to my friend complaining about how her service dog was not allowed in. He violated multiple rights according to the state. I am HIGHLY disappointed and disgusted by the lack of respect that was presented. Until the owner can learn to respect people with medical needs I will no long be a customer read more
