I arrived at 11:38AM on a Saturday morning, and the place was quite packed, but we were still able…read moreto find a table for five indoors. I placed my order on the kiosk, which I found very easy to use. I ordered Smoothie 5 and Panini 6. This came out to $36.97. For the smoothie, I subbed out strawberries (because I'm allergic) and added bananas. I found that to be a really great option that they have at no extra charge. For the panini, I didn't realize they had half and full orders until I got up to the kiosk. I opted for the full order, and then realized once I sat down that I probably would have been better off with the half option. My smoothie arrived at the table at 11:49, whereas my panini arrived at 11:53, so the wait in total was about 15 minutes which is not bad at all for how busy it was. My friends ordered the Greens 5 with prosciutto, Toast 4, Bowl 1, Bowl 6, and everyone agreed that we would definitely come back. One thing that was funny to us is that we felt like the photos on the menu looked smaller than the portions that actually arrived. My friend ordered the Greens and a Bowl thinking it would be small, and she realized very quickly that she was going to need a takeout box for her salad. (This is a good problem to have, rather than the other way around!). The service was also top notch. Even though I ordered on the kiosk, I was still able to interact with the employees, as they frequently came around to ask if they could clear off plates from our table. I also went up to the front to ask for a box, and she kindly directed me to where the boxes were located that I could just grab. Next time, I would definitely mentally prepare myself for how busy it is, but for the quality of ingredients, and the portion size, I think it is great and would definitely come back.

I get why it cost a little bit more for this because of the healthiness of these items. I like that they had a self service machine near the door, some nice seating outside and inside which we sat outside and then we had to catch a train, but It was pretty chill. Got some like bees I think nearby investigating my friends bowl.

We live nearby, so we have been to the SLO public market many times, but this was my first time trying the açai bowl. The SLO bowl (acai bowl with three fruits) I ordered was fantastic! It was packed with fresh fruit and was a very generous portion. I saved the other half for dinner. I put the rest in the freezer. Later, I put it under hot water to melt it before eating. It tasted just as good as if it were freshly made. Overall, it's a great place to recharge without feeling rushed. The atmosphere is very relaxed and casual. The food is excellent, the staff is friendly, and the location is convenient with ample parking.

For some reason, we were rung up for a regular sized bowl despite asking for the larger size and I think they had to remake it after it came out in 16oz. I asked for extra almond butter, but it still didn't fee like enough for me, but oh well. The charcoal lavender lemonade was also on point.

Caveman | Good menu…read more I dropped by here after seeing they have acai bowls. It's located in the Crossfit business. I ordered the Caveman but had them hold the blueberries and chia seeds because I'm allergic to those ingredients. The bowl was delicious. Regular was a perfect size for those looking for a quick snack. Fresh ingredients, good combo. First time for me to have a bowl with walnuts! Good location with parking in the lot out front.

And it's not just my opinion as they were recently recognized in SLO Times. With a new menu monthly--offering locally sourced ingredients--everything is always a win! I'm constantly ordering something new to try but my go to is the amazing spicy chai latte. The way they make it cannot be beat by anyone in the area! Ok that may just be my opinion but I dare you to tell me otherwise. This day I ordered the strawberry basil waffle with whipped mascarpone and olive oil with of course my favorite: the spicy chai latte!!! They're so good that it's just one of those dishes that you wished stayed on the menu permanently. They have something for everyone and I recommend everything here!!! Also don't be surprised if there is a long queue in the morning. The wait is worth it!!!

A big Ol' Coffee win for Gen-X!!…read more What a cool coffee spot. Visiting our friends from Long Beach, they recommended we go to Nautical Bean over by Trader Joe's on the south end of the San Luis Obispo city area. They have a great menu, good music plan, diverse customers on the Sunday morning we went in. Super friendly cashier who walked me through a very diverse and fun coffee menu. Love the classic 80s feel of this location. Everything from Farra Fawcett, Johnny Cash, Depeche Mode, the classic clash poster, Darth Vader, a beautiful Bowie wall mural, and a Sesame Street skateboard collection. Not to mention some awesome Star Wars lunch pails on the high shelves. Don't miss those! And, there's a millennium falcon, staring down at you as you get your refill for coffee, Long live the rebellion! And nice clean spacious restroom as well. Great job. My only invitation is to have a low-carb/no-carb food option. We can't eat like we did in the 80's and 90's!! Definitely a coffee shop that is a Force for good. Well done Gen X'er!

The menu however was a bit unclear and not as healthy as I would have imagined. The peanut butter bowl is topped with Oreos and chocolate chips... the smoothies were huge and tasted like I was drinking protein powder. It wasn't as flavorful as I would have expected. I think they would do really well with making a protein coffee/mocha smoothie or something.

When I travel, I love finding a café that has an alternative vibe, friendly staff, really good coffee, really good food, and a vibe that says, "Hey--you bought an espresso like 5 hours ago. Stay as long as you want!" In other words, it's not a snobby café. It's real. It's authentic. I love it. But it's almost impossible to just get an espresso and leave it at that. The breakfast burritos here are just that good. I strongly recommend the soyrizo breakfast burrito with avocado. They have the recipe down to perfection. You have to travel 20 minutes out of town for anything that comes close. I will be honest here: they do charge a lot for their breakfast burrito... they know what it's worth, unfortunately, and they're going to charge you for it (and the prime downtown location). They also charge a very high credit card processing fee--it's more than any kickback a credit card rewards program would give back--so if you have cash, use that. It's cheaper. Their coffee is very good. You're splitting hairs here when trying to find better coffee, but if you're looking for the best breakfast burrito in San Luis Obispo, this is it. Trust me now, thank me later.
