I love this place! Great location at Telephone and Main, lots of parking and it's pretty big! Always very clean too! A group of 9 of us meet here every other week and they have a couple large tables that accommodate us perfectly! Of course their coffee drinks are so yummy and I just tried the no sugar added vanilla frappe which was excellent! Everyone in our group is always happy! The servers here are very nice! Thanks read more

Thursday at 3 pm. Tried the door and all doors were locked but employees inside. I verified the schedule posted on door showed they should be open. Knocked at the glass door for employees to find out if they're open. Employees (gangster girl Julia and flaming red haired Mexican guy) ignored my knocking. Continued to knock harder...still ignored. Knocked more with phone now and finally I get a look from Mexican guy when I finally got to gesture they were closed. Not so much the coffee, but these two employees who ignore customers. Very rude. Don't like your job?...quit and get another one you'd like. Customer service isn't for everyone. read more

I have had 1 fabulous experience here and 1 terrible experience here. Today was the terrible experience. Food tasted terrible. The grilled cheese sandwiches were old. When I went to complain, nothing changed. No suggestions. Nada. I will not return. read more

So I tried the Cereal Milk Iced Latte and it was absolutely delicious!!! Don't let the name throw you off because it's actually really good with the perfect hint of sweetness. I will definitely order this again but try it in a blended option. read more

Today's visit was just to pick up some whole beans. I saw on the website they have a new medium roast blend called L.A. Brew. It's my first whole bean bag purchase so I hope it's good! Not bad for $14.95 for a 10oz bag. I like that the bags have the manufactured date on the bottom. I am not sure if that is also the same day they were roasted or just the day they packaged them. Hoping it's good! read more

The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf - Inside - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Ventura, California

Absolute morons work here. Staff is completely out to lunch and incredibly rude. The place is filthy - tables dirty, trash cans overflowing. I honestly didn't feel comfortable walking in as there were 2 transients digging through the trash right outside the entrance. Go to Starbucks across the street. At least there you can use the drive thru and the staff is competent. read more

Solid experience every time. The employees can be a little hit and miss, but there are some really truly genuine people that work here that make for a solid environment. This location keeps pretty busy. I think what's super nice about this location is the consistency in the drinks. There's nothing incredibly special about them, except for the fact that they are made to order the exact same way every time. And I've really grown to appreciate the consistency. Their treats and pastries are OK, as long as you keep in mind that this is a franchise. All in all, it's a pretty solid experience experience. read more

Service was mediocre. Barista was indifferent. I request almond milk instead of regular milk. My drink had regular milk. Won't be returning to this location. read more

Service has greatly improved and I have been here multiple times in the last year. Big place but in need of a remodel. Love supporting small shops but will go to Coffee Bean more often than Starbucks. I have gotten sandwiches and they've been ok nothing amazing. It killed my hunger though :) read more

A little trivia for you.... Iced coffee drinks got their start in America in 1987, when a barista at the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf in Westwood, California invented the first ever Ice Blended! So to say they make the best Ice Blended Mocha around, is an understatement! They are hands down the best!! They have mouth watering flavors as well as their original mocha. Flavors such as Cookie Dough, Oreo Cookie, Brown Sugar, Matcha, Vanilla and more. They have Ice Tea, coffee, yummy hot chocolate and so much more. They also have really good pastries and bakery items. Sandwiches, cookies, and more. Staff is always welcoming and nice. Very clean store. *They offer first responder and military discount. read more

This is a very busy location, but the coffee and Matcha latte is so worth it! The prices are similar to Starbucks. Beware, the Wi-Fi sucks though. read more

The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf - Cold Brew CoffeeVietnamese Cold Brew Coffee with Boba - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Ventura, California

I've had a few issues with this location. Every time I order through the app I ask for straws and never get one? And I don't get ice coffees I get blended drinks that need straws. One time I went through the app to try to explain I was missing a drink with photos and wasn't refunded or emailed back. When we called they said to come in and get it again even though we went through a delivery service. I also had an incident after ordering decaf coffee (double checked it was decaf) and had to go to the ER for anxiety issues related to caffeine. The drinks are goods still, I just wished the little things got more attention. read more

Great place to grab a quick coffee and you need a break from the starbucks down the street. Service is great and the staff is really friendly. It's also nice location-wise and in a safer part of town. Minus 1 star because the internet isn't the strongest. A bit of a hinderance if I'm trying to get studying or a little bit of work done before I head home. Other than that, no complaints! Recommend checking this place out. read more

Stopped by this location this morning for a breakfast sandwich and coffee. Service was excellent starting off with being greeted Goodmorning as soon as I walked in with smiles from the whole staff. Everything tasted good and store was very clean. Will be returning back to this location very soon. read more

The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf - Salted Toffee Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Ventura, California

I love using this coffee bean for mobile orders because they are very busy during the day. They usually have my drink ready in minutes for mobile pick up. The staff is friendly and I love this location. They have lots of seating options and outlets! It is a great place to study and get lots of work done. They have lots of options in the morning for breakfast as well. I would suggest trying their spooky matcha cookies and cream blended drink for this season! It is really good! The pumpkin one was not for me but some may enjoy it. read more

The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Ventura, California

Usually love Coffee Bean but someone get Starr off cashier So rude and condescending she told my sister they don't have "brown sugar here" when I've ordered it before and it's CLEARLY on the menu Said they "didn't do blended chais here" with such and attitude when I've ordered it before . And when I took literally two seconds to decide what I wanted since she kept telling me I couldn't order what I wanted she asked" are you ready or not" like girllll there wasn't even I line I would have understood it if someone was waiting to order but no one was Not coming back to this location read more

I have been a long time customer at this Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf location. They have always been kind and accommodating. In the last several days I have been to the same location; on Main St. in Ventura, at the cross section right before you can get on the freeway going North. There were ants all over the window sills, coming in from the outside. I sat there trying to get rid of a bunch of them, but then I was over it pretty fast. I got up and I told the guy at the front and he said ok and he told the other guy working at the front. I thought that someone was actually taking care of it, or if they did not have a way to correct the problem that they would at least let me know. They did not. The ants stayed. The internet also did NOT work at all. I even heard many other customers talking about the fact that they could not get any internet as well. I sent feedback on the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf website, since they have no customer service phone number and no other way to reach them, days ago and they sent me a generic response simply from the feedback that I submitted. It said that they would get back to me. They never got back to me at all. So, a couple of days later I went back: today. The ants were still all over the window sill and I had to wipe away tons of them from going all over my things and my tea. I saw another guy wiping them away from going into his coffee as well. I went up to the front and I asked the girl if their internet was working. She said that it was definitely working and that it connected to their registers. She said to turn it off and on again. And then she apologized. That was it. The internet used to go on before, albeit you had to sit there for a little bit to get it up and running. Now, it flat out just DOES NOT go on at all, because it does not work anymore. There seems to be no management at this Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf location, on Main St. in Ventura. And obviously corporate, or whichever entity is running the establishment could care less about their customers because no one actually takes care of the issues. As a long time customer and one that hardly ever raises complaints, I do not take kindly to being flat out ignored. I will no longer be a customer at the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf. Rest assured that if you continue to ignore the rest of your customers, they will certainly follow. read more

The workers at night on 09/21/25 provided terrible service. To begging with, workers gave us a face as soon as we walked in. They did not want to warm up our hot food we ordered because the oven was cleaned already "allegedly". I felt discriminated and made me feel unwelcome. I will not come back here. Definitely avoid feeling rejected in this place. Coffee bean should do a better job hiring people that actually know how to deliver customer service. read more

Great service. Right before closing, the guy made me fresh coffee. Mariano is his name I think.

I was treated poorly by one of the baristas and some of them seem to be in bad moods. I don't want to come back here again. I was discriminated against saying I'm not a customer when I in fact bought something read more

I always feel bad for this Coffee Bean's weird parking lot situation. It's at an angle, so when you're in the shopping center you can't see this shop. Other than that though, it's great! The service is always friendly and my drinks get made fast. A few times I scored a free drink jus because. I do wish they had some more fresh food options that were vegan. I usually get oatmeal or chips. If they had a muffin or bagel that was vegan it would be 5 stars for sure. Handling covid well and it's always clean inside. Will continue to keep coming here and supporting them! read more

The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf - Beautiful Sunday morning in Ventura! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Ventura, California

The biggest and best of the chain, this location has the best seating, consistent wi-fi, and is well known as the best place in town to study, while drinking delicious teas and coffee. I am addicted to their tropical iced tea served with their perfect crunchy ice. Their breakfast sandwiches are tasty, too. There are outdoor tables if you bring your dog along after visiting the nearby Petco. It shares the parking lot with FedEx office center, but I can usually find a parking spot. read more

Wifi does not work here! Employees don't care and don't do anything about it. Please fix the wifi

The vanilla ice blended has been my favorite going on 20 years now. Always delicious.

I love this particular CBTL! Best in Ventura County! Most of the staff members extremely accommodating, & have a great attitude, even during the really busy days. Good vibes here. Lots of families & "regulars" come here to study & get together over a flavorful cup of coffee or one of their epic Iced Blended drinks. They even make their own whipped cream. I enjoy popping in to order in person & pick up my favorite drink. Also LOVE their rewards program & auto ordering through their app. Many special discounts & free drinks. Great location at Main St & Telephone in the "roundhouse" Treat yourself to a seasonal favorite. read more

This is a great neighborhood coffee shop, with friendly folks at the counter and really good coffee. During the lockdown I actually missed coming here. I've taken to using it as a meeting spot with friends or just a comfy place to get a bit of reading or work done. read more

I just got a hazelnut latte w oat milk and omg it made my week it was is just that good

It's been a long time since I have visited any Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf, but decided to visit here today just to give it another try and to find a quiet place. This location had ample parking although the parking situation was a little difficult because of of the angle. The employees were not personable, but were very helpful when you ask for a suggestion. The suggestion for tea was good. The location was filthy. Tables not wiped down, restroom nasty and overall worn down. It needs a good cleaning and possibly overhaul. read more

If you need a place to study, grab a bite to eat, or need caffeine, I definitely recommend this location of coffee bean. It's always so clean and the staff are so very welcoming. They offer first responder and nurse discounts which I appreciate. I wanted to try something new other than the famous iced blended mocha I always get. And I was recommended the hot chai latte and an iced matcha latte. I got both and I enjoyed them! For a picky person like myself, they we're definitely worth trying. read more

Was pleasantly surprised about the not artificial tasting Maple Ice Blended. I do wish the barista would have put the Carmel sauce around the cup as well as in top of the whip cream. Good holiday switch up! read more

The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf - Bar area - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Ventura, California

I haven't been to Coffee Bean in a while and decided to come here since we were in the area and my boyfriend wanted something other than Starbucks. I totally forgot about the new Friend's drink menu and was excited to try it! I love coffee so had to get the Monica (Midnight Mocha Cold Brew) and he got the Joey (Mango Cold Brew Tea). They were highly recommended by the really friendly woman at the counter. So glad we tried them! The Monica was so strong with a slightly sweet chocolatey taste at the end. The Joey was very sweet and refreshing! This location also has a lot of free parking in the plaza. So glad we stopped by! I would definitely be back at this location when we are in the area. read more

Ordered 2 lattes, one hot chocolate. And a burrito. Everything was way too hot to consume. Coffee tasted a bit burnt. It's not supposed to be that hot. I'm a bit disappointed. read more

I had the lemon brewed tea drink, it was very bland, just a hint of lemon and a hint of tea, then the full cup of ice diluted it, was not enough of the refreshments. The location is super for the drivers on 101s, service is good but the drink, I wish, had stronger flavor or have options of less ice for more the tea! read more

This CBTL is GREAT! The staff is very professional, and the management is superb! It is a comfortable place with a positive attitude. The staff is quick and very personable. Everyone should go to this CBTL! read more

My go to place for coffee! Everyone here is so friendly, especially Cynthia who always remembers my order. Definitely recommend!

Service has gone down significantly in the last 6-8 months. A lot of new faces working here (which could mean the lack of quality in drinks). Also, Wifi has been terrible for like two years? Can't even connect to wifi here so have to connect to the Starbucks across the street. What's up with that - make that make sense? read more
