BEST COFFEE IN SB, 2/7/2010
Reviewer: george from Santa Barbara, CA
ITs an amazing place. GO


Good Drink, Ok food/service, 3/3/2009
Reviewer: Glenn from Buellton
Chai Latte was really good. Sandwich was Ok. A bit pricey there. I could see how it could back up with a lot of people but no more than a Starbucks would. Interesting Decor, ample parking.


this place is PERFECT!
Reviewer: Ari Rogers from Santa Barbara, CA
Great atmosphere, Great coffee, Great people, Great music, Great service, Great LATTE ART! This is the only place in town where I can find some good rosettas and hearts <3 The baristas always seen so happy, and are always working so hard! It's fun to watch the roaster roast his beans all day, so neat in that antique roaster! Every year around Christmas, they make the most BEAUTIFUL gift baskets... and they get better and better every year! I've been a regular since forever it seems, and they've been open every day of the year for us dedicated customers :) Love the free wi-fi and comfortable chairs! And now, on the 1st and 3rd thursday of every month, they have an open mic night hosted by the Independent. It's so chill, so relaxed. What can I say? This is my favorite hang out spot *winks*


LOVE IT!!!

BARISTAS KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING. THEY FOAM TO PERFECTION, AND PULL PERFECT ESPRESSO SHOTS! MACCHIATOS KICK BUTT!

Relaxed, warm atmosphere. Very good, smooth coffee. Nice, big windows that let in lots of natural light. Comfortable chairs, tables, etc. Free Wi-Fi. hooray


Great place, good espresso
Reviewer: Markus from Newbury Park, CA
My wife and I were in SB on 3/30/07. I had a double shot which was stronger than expected but with a pleasant flavor. The atmosphere is great - they roast the coffee in the shop. Stuff was friendly and answered my questions about their espresso blends. Will go there again when in SB.


Disappointed AGAIN
Reviewer: Sam from Santa Barbara
Was in there on Sat. 3/24/07. What a mistake! There were three behind the counter..two of the girls were more interested in counting out their lunch money, and the lone young man was SLOWLY making coffee etc. There was a line of at least 9 people and we had quite a wait while the girls counted, recounted and recounted and recounted (well, you get the picture) out their money. What bothered me most was that all three were aware that the was a line building and still milled around sorting out their personal business. About 25 min. later, my daughter and I FINALLY recieved our coffee. I've learned my lesson and won't go there again. A disappointed Local


Love the location, Like the staff
Reviewer: Bruce from Santa Barbara, ca
...but the coffee too often is over roasted and always is overextracted. And in the end, that's really what it's all about.


Best coffee so far....
Reviewer: New local in town from seattle so it's legit
Every time I get coffee at Santa Barbara Roasting Company, it is made to perfection with a warm smile from the barista!!!! Outstanding shots of espresso, sweet frothy foam, an assortment of delicious teas, and a friendly atmosphere with fun music! I Love it!!! I'm a lifer!


Best Coffee Ever...
Reviewer: Awesome Person from Isla Vista, CA
The coffee is so rich with no sour/nasty aftertaste. The best part is the coffee beans are grown locally and organically...hence the farmers are paid what they deserve. Very reasonable price with the best tasting, freshest coffee.


Yum
Reviewer: Jen from Santa Barbara, CA
Amazing coffee, fun and friendly service, relaxed locals environment. I've been a returning customer for about a year, ever since moving back into town. Highly recommended!


Low Key, Locals Rule Espresso Bar

This is always consistent, great service, well brewed espresso, no frills, just the basics.
