    Chia Latte and a Raw Dog !

    The most memorable coffee shop in Morro Bay (: hospitality is like no other !! And the drinks are just a bonus !! I recommend 1000 percent !

    Store front

    I ordered the chocolate razzberry cheesecake Mocha. Wow. Sunday is my cheat day so I also ordered a (gluten free) coffee cake, lemon bar, and (smelled so delicious) also ordered the breakfast burrito! I'll WALK to church today to burn these calories. All delicious! Very coastal cafe vibe. The barista was very friendly. There were regular customers who were bantering away about the Tesla they test drove and how they ended up in Morrow Bay 20 years ago. They fell in love with Californa and the hidden gem on this secluded coast... and so will you.

    Quiche
    Brooke A.

    This café was a wonderful experience all around. The staff were so friendly, even bringing out the food to the dining area rather than I'm just calling my name to grab it. I got a quiche, which looked delicious in the pastry case, and looked even more delicious once they plated and warmed it up for me, adding both avocado and salsa to it. They really care about the food they make here, and it shows through the care with which it is served, even a to go order, as well as the quality and taste. I love the location as well as the ambience of this place. It is absolutely the perfect beach, town, coffee bar, with an amazing little dining patio, where the sunshine is just right in the morning.

    Very yummy breakfast bagel and great coffee this morning at Rock Espresso Bar! Friendly service and nice ambiance in and outside.

    Rock Burrito with bacon

    The cashier and barrista were great, so friendly and personable. I got a chai and a rock burrito. The chai really impressed me. I'm kinda picky when it comes to tea, especially with chai since I make it at home with fresh spices. This one is great. The burrito was good. The ingredients were well blended and the salsa had a nice spicy kick.

    Our go to spot every time we come to Morro Bay. Customer service is great, Rudy and staff make you feel welcome and the quiche go get you one. I mean run, this was a veggie quiche and salsa was tasty too!

    Amazing savory danish!

    Amazing savory Danish! Good coffee and reasonable prices. Lovely back patio for those looking for morning cup this is the place.

    The menu

    This place was so quick and easy from our hotel. And the server was a funky dude that added a ton of humor and joked with everyone. We ordered the breakfast sandwiches and even my 7 year old said they were amazing!

    Iced latte and blueberry muffin was just perfect. The outside gazebo was the right location for our pittstop.

The bean is typically too busy and Rudi's Rock was closed today so...Large mocha no whip, chocolate muffin and a mini breakfast burrito. I have 15 minutes till my appointment. okay coffee and muffin up PDQ, My burrito wasn't made, she explained why...I told them I'd be back so went for my "Mike's" #2 buzz hair cut, perfect. I missed that 1030 appointment because the blood draw place was really busy (75 minutes). So Mikes was pushed to 1130 and I went and took care of that. So back at the dog for breakfast...waiting for my mini breakfast burrito for $10, will she give me a free black coffee for my troubles earlier? Yes, easy enough and a few minutes later my burrito was up, good and hot. I really like the process of an actually "cooked" not micro warmed food/breakfast. With that of course are other issues that are avoided with micro warmed stuff. Take your pick, roll the dice, hope for the best...all went towards 3 or 4 stars. I got to my nooner lunch meeting a bit early and enjoyed my brunch. Good enough. The fourth star was missed because my experience could have been avoided with better training in processes and procedures. I understand good help is difficult to find today but regular training and better pay keep the good ones...mr.owner. Thanks for the coffee, Martin - foodguy

We were lucky enough to snag the last almond croissant, and what a treat it was. The exterior had a sweet, delicate crunch, and with each bite, rich almond filling oozed out for the perfect balance of texture and flavor. It wasn't overloaded with powdered sugar, and the sweetness was just right--indulgent without being overwhelming. I also tried a slice of the salmon and leek quiche. It was light and fluffy while still feeling substantial and satisfying. The combination of savory salmon and sweet leek worked beautifully together. Whether you're starting your morning or looking for a midday pick-me-up, the quiche is a must-try. I was excited to try the house made mango-infused black iced tea, but unfortunately, there was nothing mango flavored about it That said, this bakery is still well worth a visit. Between the pastries and quiche, it is an easy stop to recommend when you're in Morro Bay.

The person working there (owner?) Was hustling hard. She was working the register. Cleaning the tables. Handing out the food. Making the food and drinks in the back. She was a 1 woman wrecking crew. But still was able to get everyone's stuff out in a timely manner. Without sacrificing customer service. We ordered their chai latte and a black medium roast coffee. As well as a breakfast burrito and a rock harburrito. We forgot to tell her it was to go as we were trying to get back home before the LA traffic started. Imagine to my surprise when she came out with the food and it was to go!! The chai latte was really good. I loved it. And my wife really enjoyed it. Black coffee was good too. No frills. No fluff. But it kept me awake for the 4.5 hour drive home. So that works. The breakfast burrito was really good. My wife enjoyed hers. And mines was good too. Packaged really well. Ate it while driving so that really facilitated us getting home before the traffic. It was a very hearty burrito the rock harburrito. Gave us some green sauce to go with it. And it was just amazing. The inside is somewhat cramped with many tables and chairs. She also sells baked goods. And some random things. Like coffee mugs and other things. Nice signs all over the place as well as in the parking lot about the importance of coffee!! I really loved the hustle. And the food and drink was amazing. Not more you can ask for.
