To be clear, I hate coffees, but that is where DB shines, their variety of rebel drinks offer an endless selection of flavors and are perfect for that much needed bump of energy. They also have smoothie options with kids cups that are great for toddlers. And for those who love cold or hot coffees they have a diverse selection. Their prices are on par with other competitors. you can also park in the nearby parking and walk to the counter if you think that might speed your purchase on a busy day. It will continue to be my choice for an energy bump.

This is definitely not a place you'd go to for simple espresso drinks. We were content with our drinks: Curious George (mocha with banana cold foam), For the Girls (cold brew with strawberry cold foam), and Brown Sugar Shaken Espresso. The flavors came out as expected, but it is was on the sweeter side. The drinks here are on the pricier side. Each of our 16 oz drinks were over $10 after tax and tip. They offer larger cups too around 24oz, similar to a Venti from Starbucks. Given the price only, it's hard for me to justify repeat visits. The store itself is tiny. There is no room for you to sit down and enjoy your drink. The staff were great. They were kind and very attentive despite being very busy when we went. I'd only come if I'm craving their specialty drinks.

Oh my goodness! BREWJEE! If you are ever in salinas, and need your coffee/ matcha/ pastry + drink…read morefix definitely check this tiny but mighty cafe place out! Drink thoughts: I'm a matcha fanatic and those around me are coffee connoisseurs and every time I go here I legit get a different drink. If you realllyyyy want my opinion though and want a matcha drink- get the King Kong Matcha or the Matcha with Cookie Butter! (But seriously, any drink you get is gucci.) For the holidays, you know they had to give us something good! I tried both the Grinch Matcha and Santa Cookie drink and it tastes like Christmas holiday cosy vibes but iced lol. Parking: There is a parking site close by but it can be tight! (Per usual in downtown salinas) Vibes: Immaculate (I need a brewjee sweater / t-shirt now.

He took his name tag off but he has mid length brown hair. He gets frustrated when we simply asked for the açaí primo and thought we asked for something else. I asked to not have honey put on the bowl be my partner is allergic. We get the bowls and there's a ton of honey on top like it was drowned in honey. I go back to tell them we had asked for no honey and he corrects me and says " i'm pretty sure you didn't" and threw a fit and slammed the bowl in the back and walked away and i had reassured him and reminded him about how i had asked the first time and he tried to ring us up for a different bowl with nutella and peanut butter. All and all. A simple miscommunication lead into him throwing a fit when we responded so nicely and was genuinely confused as to why he got so upset. if you com her make sure you're clear about your order and allergens because he won't hear you the first time and try and say you didn't let them know about removing or substituting anything.

They don't have fresh produce to juice which is what I was hoping for but they can fresh squeeze carrot and orange juice. I don't drink the smoothies but they look delicious. They have some kids options for smoothies, my kid got the strawberry one, she loved it. They have wheat grass and supplements you can add to your smoothies or drinks. They have other packaged foods for purchase such as pirate booties. They have gift cards for purchase and other Jamba Juice souvenirs. The restaurant is small with limited seating.

I'm not a fan of the matcha since it comes sweetened, but the drinks that are flavored here tend to be on the sweeter side. If I want to throw a few extra miles on my gym runs I will have the Mexican mocha frappe, but I don't even want to know the calories on that one. Good local spot you have to try.

OVERALL: Kind of reminds me of the local Suju's in Fremont (where I'm from), as their local go to coffee in Salinas that's more concentrated in espresso complexity. CUBANITO: Their specialty! Only 8oz with 3 shots of espresso, turbinado sugar, and milk...can modify level of sweetness. However person for which this drink was for states it's still overly sweet. CARAMEL Macchiato: Made me sad that it wasn't authentic as milk should be first then the shots of espresso so there's two layers (that's why I secretly wanted this drink). Then a drizzle of caramel. Tastes like a caramel macchiato, nonetheless. ***overall, their coffee is good with a smooth flavor profile and no bitter undertones or after taste, equating to high quality beans*** SERVICE: They are so sweet, kind, and patient, willing to answer any and all questions. Very splendid seeing a group of Spanish speaking ladies going strong at it! AMBIANCE: Casual, local coffee joint that's mainly enjoyed by the Hispanic community. Bathroom available. WiFi available. Very clean. Very modern decor. Two outdoor tables. Multiple indoor seating options. Located in the Safeway plaza with a multitude of establishments, stores, Jamba Juice, services, etc. Very large private parking lot. In the suburbs. Would I come back? Probably not.
