Dune Coffee Roasters - Santa Barbara

Great location! And good coffee and an even better service.

One of several locations in the area. I often find Dune’s coffees more interesting than traditional coffee shops. Not only do they offer a wide variety of packaged coffee, but they also brew many of their varieties in both espresso and non-espresso drinks. If you want to mix up your coffee game a little, and are willing to try something different this is probably a good choice. Of course, they also have your traditional dark roast espresso coffee as well; ZipZinger is a great option along those lines. As with most other coffee shops in the area, there are selection of baked items available as well as some other food options.

Best coffee in Santa Barbara. vibes are always immaculate and everyone working there are super friendly, kind and great at what they do.

Why do coffee shops need to play loud music? It's not a rhetorical question. My take is that they want to move customers in, through, and on. This is the reason for the 2 stars on the atmosphere. The drink was good, the staff was very engaging. Then why push us on? Why not let us have a conversation with friends? Go there and see for yourself. Maybe that was a one-off, and they usually play their music at a low level. On the other hand, I encourage them to go to Europe and discover how music is nearly non-existent in restaurants and coffee shops. They understand the purpose of gathering. Once again, Santa Barbara fails.

Such a lovely shop. Great latte and toast. And super warm staff.
