Great coffee and a hidden gem! Tucked away next to a gas station, this little blue café is so easy to drive right past--but that would be a mistake. Thanks to a recommendation from a good friend, I stopped in, and I'm so glad I did. From the warm, welcoming greeting the moment I walked in to the spotless restroom, every detail made for a wonderful experience. The coffee was outstanding. I ordered a double cortadito (macchiato) with lavender, and it was smooth, perfectly balanced, and absolutely delicious. Yes, it's a little pricey for the size, but the quality and flavor make it well worth it. I'll definitely be stopping here again the next time I'm in Mammoth Lakes! read more

Why did we eat here? We were in town for mountain biking and Stellar Brew & Natural Cafe filled the mark for a brunch spot. 3% surcharge for credit cards. Menu is full of coffee drinks and health breakfast items like açaí bowls and breakfast burritos. Lots of options for those into healthy food. The food was very good, wish we had spots like this in San Francisco. Service was quick and knowledgeable. Food Review: Acai Bowl ($13.50) was huge and full of acai. Their version is not sweet, compared to Palmetto. Lots of toppings. 8.5/10 Basin Bowl ($14) with Avocado and Cilantro pesto ($2.50) is a hearty lunch dish filled with solid ingredients. Perfect for vegetarians. 10/10 Gluten free/Vegan Morning Glory muffin ($5.95) was not sandy. Pretty decent version. 10/10 Overall - Very Good Food - Very Good Decor - Very Good Service - Very Good Value - Good Would we return? - Yes read more

Friendly folks! Vegan options were great. Especially the huge chocolate chip cookie! Delicious and truly vegan. The iced banana latte was a huge disappointment. Very watered down. It's a cute little shop. read more

Stopped by Stellar Brew & Natural Cafe in Mammoth Lakes after an early morning swim at Wild Willy's Hot Springs, and it was exactly what I needed before making the long drive back to Southern California. I grabbed a breakfast burrito to go along with a maple latte. The burrito was filling and hit the spot, while the maple latte was really good without being overly sweet. Definitely a solid place to grab breakfast and coffee before hitting the road. Quick, convenient, and a great way to wrap up a morning in Mammoth Lakes before heading south! read more

We typically visit the other two coffee shops when we were in town but thought we'd give this one a try. I know our friend's daughter has loved these beans for 25+ years. We ordered a mocha and a carrot cake muffin. The mocha was pretty good, kind of a medium chocolate flavor to it. The muffin was quite dry. We took off the bottom 2/3 of the muffin and tossed it but enjoyed the top third because the cream cheese frosting was delicious! We heard their breakfast burritos are really good, we'll have to try that next time we are in town. read more

I hate to give a bad review, especially for a small business but what we received today was completely unacceptable. We were on our way out of town around 9:30am and stopped to get coffee and grabbed an everything bagel with eggs and bacon as well as a turkey egg burrito from the grab and go section. The coffee was fine. The bagel was so hard and burnt that I could barely bite into it. I tried a couple of different spots and it was inedible. Whatever the egg puck was inside the bagel was hard and tasteless. The "bacon" was literally stuck to the bagel, I tried to peel it off and eat some but it didn't taste like bacon and was like leather. I'm having a hard time understanding why they would serve this? The burrito was just brought out from the kitchen. We bit into it and it was cold. The tortilla tasted fake. Again, why put this out there to purchase. Had we not been in a time crunch we would have turned around to show them what they gave us and request a refund. I've never thrown out food before but these were inedible. I'm giving 2 stars instead of 1 as the cashier was very friendly. read more

We came here after staying the night in Mammoth lakes. It seemed like a cool little local coffee shop to try. The smoothies seemed to be really popular. It was pretty busy for a Monday morning and it took a while to get our food. The whole grain English muffin was made there and overall a pretty good sandwich. The burrito was just ok. Not really seasoned or anything. read more

I originally thought that the bomber bagel was a little pricy for what it is but this ended up being the most filling breakfast bagel I've ever had! I was so full I skipped lunch and had a light snack for dinner. This bagel is LOADED and the homemade pesto inside is amazing. I've also had a couple lattes from here- the turmeric one was not my jam (maybe an acquired taste) but I got the lavender one the day before which was solid. Also to note, I went here multiple days bc it's the coffee shop that opens earliest at 530am! So nice to grab a hot coffee before going out in the cold mountains read more

The coffee was good, the guy making the coffees was nice. The rest of the staff seemed stoned at work. The guy in the back offered to add red onion on my bagel and when came out he handed my sister and I two toasted bagels with red onion on them and a side of cream cheese in two cups on top of the bagels. He looked proud of himself like he went over the top by adding onion on it. As a chef, that was laughable to me. Why wouldn't you just add the cream cheese on it too? I definitely won't be going back to that coffee shop again. The food on top of it wasn't good either. The ready to go breakfast burrito was hard and tasted like nothing special. The salsas that they charge 50 cents each was so gross. I don't know how you can mess up salsa, maybe try opening an authentic Hispanic cookbook and do the culture some justice. read more

This place is a killer stop on your way into mammoth. Really cute inside with local artists featured and fun merch to buy.

5/5 stars. This is such a cute, cozy spot that's perfect for breakfast/coffee before a hike or ski day. The staff were so nice, the coffee was so good and reasonably priced, and it's a got great seating both inside and outside. I got a drip coffee for like $3, and they give a full $1 off if you bring your own thermos!! They also charge only 10 cents extra for oat milk. There are gluten free and vegan pastry options that were really good (we liked morning glory more than the banana muffin). They had made to order breakfast as well as multiple grab and go items in the fridge. We came two days in a row, and it will def be our go to spot anytime we ski in Mammoth from now on. read more

Decided to check this place out after comparing a few other smoothie spots. We stopped by about an hour before closing, so it wasn't busy at all. There's a good selection of snacks, merchandise, and even some warm food available. The menu is straightforward, and it's nice that you can substitute ingredients in your drink if you'd like. Service was super quick, and the atmosphere was cozy without feeling crowded. It's a great spot to hang out with friends, relax solo, or bring your laptop to get some work done. Smoothie was great, heavy on the banana flavor. Prices are pretty high but this seems like a town that relies heavily on tourism so it's understandable. read more

Our family loves Stellar Brew for their grab-and-go breakfast burritos and bagel sandwiches. They're piping hot and full of flavor, and if you have more time to wait they can make it fresh for you. Their coffees and teas always impress the fanatics in my family. They offer some specials before 7:30am, and at any hour you can bring in your own cup to save $1. We enjoy the cozy atmosphere and make a stop every time we're in town. read more

Cute little shop that is really adding to the small mountain-town vibe. There's a decent amount of seating, with plenty of outlets which was nice. Employees were friendly. Their coffee was not my favorite but still yummy and I had a good time. read more

My brother and I were looking for a place where we could sit with an evening coffee and have some real conversations -- somewhere calm, open a little later, and not rushed. We were really glad to find Stellar Brews. I ordered a chai latte and it honestly may be the best I've ever had in my life -- perfectly spiced, not too sweet, and just really comforting. The service from Carlos was great, too. He wasn't overbearing -- just genuinely kind, generous, and attentive in a low-key way that made the space feel welcoming. If you're deciding between the big coffee chains and this place, skip the chains and come here. We'll definitely be back. read more

Cute little cafe located in Mammoth!! My friends and I came here for breakfast on a Saturday morning. The line was out the door but it moved quickly! Workers were friendly & helpful. The inside is small, but there's also plenty of outdoor seating / benches. I got the Bomber Bagel, which was delicious! I chose the everything bagel for my bread. It came with a fried egg, tomato, spinach, cream cheese, and their homemade cilantro pesto. It was honestly the best breakfast sandwich I've ever had. I don't know what they put in their pesto sauce, but it was SO delicious! I noticed some fresh garlic pieces in there which added so much flavor! I also got the spiced chai latte. It had the perfect amount of spice. Would definitely get both of those again! This place is definitely a must - try on a trip to mammoth. read more

5 stars to this coffee shop for being open on Christmas Day and serving fresh food and amazing coffee! Breakfast was done right on a snowy, yet sunny day in Mammoth. The warm, generously sized breakfast burritos and the comforting lattes were exactly what we needed. They also offer breakfast sandwiches, which are just as satisfying. The cozy, homey atmosphere and excellent service made this spot stand out, especially when so many other places were closed. read more

Our group ordered three açaí bowls and two smoothies. The smoothies were good according to those who ordered them, but the açaí bowls were terrible. They were flavorless and full of large chunks of ice. The granola was stale with no crunch. One also ordered almond butter with his and it was a large glob on top and was dry. read more

Idk wtf happen to this place, sad.. went in for a burrito friday right before 12 pm.. grabbed my burrito and salsa by the hot case and proceeded to the register. Paid cash, and the women at the register proceeded to slam down the tip jar on the counter before giving me my change, all ones mind you. SHe could've just given me a 5 dollar bill.. that kinda attitude NOBODY is GETTING A TIP. ESPECIALLY if im grabbing my own burrito from a hot cabinet I wish i had accidentally left my go pro on and got that on video. It would've been hilarious. Anyways. I remember this place being so vibrant, happy, warm, and welcoming! Now... idk mammoth do better read more

Great ambiance. Fast service. Wide variety of options. Food and drinks are mid but it is one of the better places in Mammoth.

This is a tiny eclectic community space with super delicious coffee and friendly staff. Customers are locals for the most part and it's a beautiful mix of musicians, skiers and families. I ordered the honey latte and it was excellent. A must see if you're in the area! Sadly though, I must remove a star for the somewhat outrageous pricing. Food is super expensive. read more

I've been coming to Mammoth for many years and have actually met the owners of Stellar Brew--they are genuinely kind people. I also understand that the holidays can be challenging for any hospitality business. That said, I've visited twice recently, and both experiences were disappointing. There were very few customers in the shop, yet the service was slow and inattentive. On one visit, a refrigerated container had visible hair in it, which I pointed out to an employee. On another visit, it took over 45 minutes to receive just three items, while most of the staff appeared to be sitting on their phones, and there were no other orders being handled. If the place were packed, I'd completely understand. But there were only about four other customers at the time. That level of service simply isn't acceptable. It's unfortunate when great owners have to rely on employees who don't seem to take pride in their work. That's part of the challenge of the hospitality business--but it's also something that can and should be addressed. I share this feedback in hopes that it leads to improvement, because situations like this can quickly hurt an otherwise good reputation. read more

Lowkey these spaniards are clueless. As a spaniard i'm saying this btw. Took 3 of them to ring me up. Also food is expensive for no reason idk how a burrito a sammy and hot chocolate came out to $48 but whatever. Also what really set me off is when i went to use the bathroom after eating their sandwich my stomach basically dropped from what i just ate so nature called and I went to the bathroom, not even 2 minutes later I hear the loud ahh worker outside the bathroom, 2 minutes later so tries opening the door banging on it 3 times as if she didn't see the door lock saying occupied. sandwich and burrito were decent. read more

Purchased 7 burritos, some coffee and orange juices to go. 4 grab and go burritos. 3 custom order burritos to exclude things like bell pepper, onion and cheese. 2 of the 3 custom ordered burritos were correct. The third burrito had everything we requested it NOT to have, meaning it was a fully wasted $15. $15 for a burrito is crazy first of all but everything is expensive these days so won't judge it solely on the cost, but rather the quality. However the quality and taste of the burrito itself was not worth anything close to $15. It was below middle of the road for a breakfast burrito. Spend the extra bucks and grab a breakfast burrito up on the mountain, it will be bigger, hot and tasty. Definitely would NOT recommend or return. read more

Cute little coffee shop next to the gas station on a main street. The moment you walk in, you can feel that they were going for the homey and welcoming feel. There are board games and guitars that you are encouraged to play with. The staff greets you the moment you come in and are super helpful and kind. I came in to get some joe as I was about to head back home on a 6-hour trek and wanted some caffeine in me. I ordered the trail mix mocha - which, the best way I can describe it is rocky road flavored coffee. It's a bit sweet normally, so be sure to ask for it to be less sweet. read more

15.00 for a breakfast burrito, 20 minutes to make it. It better be worth it. And yes it was. I had turkey, bacon and cheddar. Left out the onions and bell pepper. My first time and I like the place. The lady taking my order had a very nice accent but unfortunately she didn't articulate her words or look at me when she spoke so I had to ask her to repeat herself each time she asked a question. Some folks just can't process. Maybe slow down and articulate. read more

I mapped out the local coffee/breakfast places in Mammoth and Stellar Brew kept coming up. I didn't realize that it was so close because it across the road from another spot that our group had been to. When we walked in I realized Stellar catered to backpackers-they had a rather large grab n go section where a lot of pre-made foods were available. It seemed like the only made to order items were the drinks. I'm not a coffee drinker so I went with one of their smoothies as a drink but then got one of their everything bagel breakfast sandwiches from their pre-made section. The smoothie seemed to follow the Jamba juice formula, juice with some fruits thrown in. While the breakfast sandwich was a little on the small side-kind of like their dine-in space. I ended up taking my food outside and finishing my semi-satiating food with the assist of a lot of their packaged Cholula sauces. Maybe the coffee here is good, but if you're looking for a breakfast option that ISN'T quick serve maybe go somewhere else. read more

Food - terrible Service- terrible Ambiance- very mid The breakfast burrito was cold, the eggs were questionable. In addition, we ordered a plain bagel with butter to wait 10 minutes for them to bring out a cold bagel wrapped in plastic. Then when we asked to have it toasted we waited another 15 minutes for them to forget about our bagel, the cashier touched it with his hands only to bring it around the corner to have us toast it ourselves. For the price you pay for food and drinks here I would highly recommend saving your money and going literally anywhere else. read more
