This was my first time here and I really like it. It's clean and the service is super friendly. I wanted to bring in some pastries from somewhere else as we were celebrating Father's Day and they were very gracious about it. The coffee was excellent and the seating was comfy. I really hope this is the norm because I live close by and will be back often. read more

I love this place! Small and cozy....with chairs and tables I like....and I am picky. WiFi is not a hasstle.....food and drinks are excellent. Love ti! (Very close to Trader Joe's in Capitola.) read more

I love Love LOVE Zizzo's! The owners will greet you by name and with a smile every morning, and offer-up the best Mocha Chai on Earth. Do yourself a favor, and drive right by Bux and go a couple driveways up to the Brown Bulb and support an independent, local business that offers a wide variety of very good beverages - from the menu or custom-made. It's a great place to relax a bit and smell the beans =) read more

Had our drinks made with almond milk and extra shot of espresso. Pretty standard tuxedo and regular mochas. Not too sweet! Wasn't very crowded either, so the wait was minimal. A cute caffeine pick me up spot on the way to Monterey, CA. They have a bunch of interesting drinks so if you're in the mood from something different, I'd check it out! read more

This one of my favorite spots for coffee and food on my way to work! The staff is quick, kind and always happy to see me! I love their "wake up call" coffee and their breakfast wraps are delicious! I have yet to try the wine bar, but I can tell it has a great variety and the ambiance is great! I also love the small section of local jewelry and gifts! Came in handy around Christmas time!! read more

I like this coffe house becaue they make a Cafe Valencia that's yummy on ice! When I was away recently, I so looked forward to having this beverage again. I don't do hot coffee, i've never had a cup of coffee in my life, but put some ice and sugar in it and I LOVE it. And Zizzo's is one of the only two coffee houses in the area that I know of that stocks Almond Milk. Plus, the place is tidy and the decor has special fun and funky touches like the surfer inlaid wood tables. The staff has always been pleasant. ~AM read more

Good alternative to Buckies Coffee. But sometimes the coffe isn't smooth tasting. Recent turnover in ownership and it seems to be working. read more

Great coffee! Friendly service. Maybe not as good as the baristas at Verve but still quite good. I get their Kona blend whole bean to make at home. I prefer it to all other coffee I have made in my home. Their Valencia Mocha is awesome. It might be too sweet for some, but if you like oranges get it! read more

Must try the butter croissant and a white mocha i would recommend an extra shot. Particularly if you like the Coffee taste with a bit of sweet. Otherwise if sweet and creamy coffee is what you love don't add a thing. read more

Zizzo's Coffeehouse - Coffee.yumm!! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Capitola, California

Really unique place. I'm not sure there is anything like it in Santa Cruz. A true piano bar with good wine, beer and food accommodations. Owners are. A sound technician and a singer, so the place is set up perfect for the venue. Great relaxed place and intimate setting. read more

Zizzo's Coffeehouse - Yugi killing it on guitar - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Capitola, California

Coffee is good but the food is very generic and a small selection. Serve was horrible, rude baristas which definitely didn't make us want to stay and enjoy the atmosphere. read more

Stopped by here in between appointments. Cute little spot that serves coffee and wine. I only wished they had a bigger selection of things to eat or snack on. Well, spent sometime here working and the staff was extremely friendly. I'd definitely go back if I were in the area. read more

Stopped in for coffee and went with the iced Mexican Mocha with whipped cream. It was delicious! They've added a wine bar to the shop and have plans to expand and have live music. If I lived in the area, I'd be here all the time! read more

Zizzo's Coffeehouse - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Capitola, California

Reviewing the coffeehouse - Ample selection of coffee brews/beans, drinks, and flavors to choose from. Zizzou's is slightly overpriced. I had the Bakhti chai, iced over almond milk - a tasty, ginger twist on traditional Indian chai. Worthwhile if you like chai/ginger. She had an americano, two pumps of sugar free caramel, with room for cream - my gf's feelings in one word, in her words, "basic". She found the espresso to subdued and not sufficiently robust. Zizzou's features house-made whipped cream, thicker than store bought but not as sweet; a tasty add-on to your beverage. Comfy interior seating with select exterior seating. Situated in strip mall, ample parking. read more

Great products, friendly faces, clean and inviting interior. We've enjoyed getting an occasional espresso and pastries while Camp Hosting at New Brighton State Beach Campground here in Capitola for 3 months. We'll miss you all and your espresso's. read more

Honestly I've been working in the Brown Ranch plaza for 3 years now and every time I go in Zizzo's before work I don't know if it's an off day for them but their dark roast and medium roast coffees have never set well with my stomach after I drank it and today the coffee I got was Very watered down? I am a coffee shop addict and I've been to so many around town that I know what good coffee is. Such a bummer cause I love the staff, seriously so sweet and the environment is beautiful just not the best coffee. read more

Like to support local businesses but this one is not on my list. I've given it several chances and everytime greeted by a very rude, grumpy unhappy owner. I really like to give people chances but not again. My last visit I was given lukewarm coffee. Kind of like the service I get but the coffee was a little warmer.. read more

I work in the same plaza as Zizzo's and frequently (if not daily) visit. Everything I have gotten has been excellent. I love the ham and cheese croissant, and their spinach and feta croissant is to die for! As for drinks, you can't go wrong with a chocolate tuxedo. Everyone I've ever encountered has been very friendly and kind. Excellent experience every time. Very satisfied. read more

Getting morning started with Zizzo's. Tasty breakfast burrito-eggs, potatoes, and bacon. Mmm... read more

Zizzo's Coffeehouse - Mmm...bacon, eggs, and potatoes at Zizzo's too good. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Capitola, California

The girl who works in the morning is the best. The second time I went there I forgot to ask for soy and she had remembered from the day before. She makes such good drinks! I commute all the way from Hollister and wait to get my coffee from her. Hands down the best drink I've ever had. read more

Oh, Zizzos Coffee... words cannot describe my love for your decadent beverages. Amazing service, extraordinary drinks and awesome atmosphere all at one place! Didn't think it was possible? Neither did I. Seriously, the best Coffee place in California (Trust me, I've been to a lot of them) if not more! The Blackberry White Mocha, Italian Sodas and the Jumpstart with shots of Raspberry and Blackberry is to die for... in a very good way. read more

Dear Zizzo's, Do you or do you not allow dogs in your coffee shop? I saw a man with his dog inside the shop for a very long time the other day. No one, not one worker mentioned to this man that his dog was not allowed inside (and it wasn't a small chiwawa or something, this was a huge Labrador). Today, I bring my dog (a small guy) in with me to quickly buy a drink and sit outside when the worker tells me I'm not allowed to bring my dog in. Sure, health code, I get it. But why enforce with some and not others? I'm just saying some consistency would be nice with your pet policy. read more

With all the coffee shop options in Santa Cruz,I was thrilled to discover a beautiful shop with a cozy yet classy setting. The atmosphere is calm with soft lighting (if you're in a privacy kinda mood). The staff is great and the coffee is excellent. The Bhakti chai lattes are amazing. There's also a wine bar, local art hanging and live music during the week. Pretty cool little spot indeed. read more

This is the cutest place ever. A friend of mine told me about the place so I brought one of my good friends for a glass of wine. It's not just a coffee house although it has a wonderful breakfast/lunch menu. Christine the owner is a lovely woman who has really put some time a effort into decorating this place to be classy but casual. We will definitely be back. read more

My favorite coffee shop in Capitola!! Great atmosphere and killer mochas! One of the few beer and wine bar and coffee shops in SC

I have to come here every time i go to Santa Cruz. The white mocha is the best- not sure how it's so different than most places but it's smooth and creamy and light (I hate when it's too Syrup-y). It's super cute venue and I've been meaning to try and come in the evening for a nice wine date with the piano and all. I love this place so much i'd want to be a franchise owner one day! read more

This is one of my favorite coffeehouses. Everytime our family goes here, it's perfect and we are in the 1% we don't spend our money just anywhere. I know some people don't like the coffee here and that's ok. Just like having a limited palate is ok. read more

This is my favorite coffee stop! I love it here so much I drive all the way from San Jose to come for great coffee and the best of friends. I fell in love with Zizzo's in Campbell...see my review for more! read more

The staff and service at Zizzos is top notch! They have the best Mexican Mocha and an ice tea that is to die for. I'd recommend that everyone should checkout Zizzos. read more

Great coffee & atmosphere, just overpriced. Easy to get to lots of parking. A bit small but they have seating outside as well.

Wow! Hidden gem! Great wine, great music, great chicken and artichoke appetizer! Mini bar area around piano! Great find! read more

Great Coffee and Service. Very friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend, picking up a coffee and a breakfast burrito. Rob Ross

This is a lovely little coffee house. The service is great and the ambiance is very classy. I liked the food options as well. On a Friday I went in with a girlfriend to enjoy a nice glass of red and listen to the guitarist playing mellow music. I Definitely recommend it! read more

This coffee shop has recently been revamped into include a wine and piano bar. It beautiful in here! Just having a coffee now, but I'll be back in the future for a glass of wine amd a bite off their new menu. The atmosphere in here is so warm and inviting. read more

We had a really nice time here. Food is great, music is amazing and the have great customer service. Very relaxing.

I adore Zizzo's. I always come here on my lunch breaks at work, and lately I've started coming early to my shifts so I can enjoy a mocha and a cheese bagel here as an energizing snack. The drinks are fairly priced and really tasty. The mocha is my favorite, but the tux (dark and white chocolate) is great as well, and the blackberry white chocolate mocha just tastes like cake... yum! The owners are the most friendly couple ever, and the place is always well-kept and peaceful. Yes yes yes! :) read more

I felt I needed to update my review of this place. Unfortunately, the original owners of Zizzo's sold the business a few years ago and it hasn't been the same since. The staff seem to be just going about their business and just doing what they have to do. Kiss the friendly atmosphere goodbye. Even their hot chocolate has gone downhill. Makes me sad. read more

I found the best place to get your joe! The staff is great. They're Friendly, pleasant, thoughtful and quick. They are happy to talk to customers- not just their friends. I love the atmosphere! There are many places to sit, they have some very comfy chairs and a sofa. THis place even has a wine bar AND a piano! It's got this jazzy/ mellow/ welcoming feeling to it. They keep it clean and tidy too. Did I mention, they also have a customer card, where you get a free one when its filled up?! They make a great green tea blended drink too. Thanks coffee people! read more

This is the best coffee in town! The people are incredibly friendly, the location is fairly convenient but you wont walk out of there without a smile :) they are as local as they come, service is excellent, and their coffee is amazing! read more

Best coffee i've had in a long time!!!!! Got the Cafe Mona Zizzo with Soy (Espresso, milk chocolate, hazelnut & vanilla). Amazing!! Little drive out of town for it but well worth it! read more
