ABOUT US

We believe that specialty coffee is for everyone, and should be accessible, approachable and fun. It is our privilege to find beautiful coffees, roast them, and serve them in our hometown of Santa Barbara.

2009

HUMBLE BEGINNINGS

Using an espresso machine loaned to us by our friends at Verve Coffee, we built our company on the corner of State St and Figueroa. We were a barebones operation consisting of just Julia and Todd, but the foundation of quality and community was there: and so were you!

2012

ROASTING OUR OWN

We branched out and began sourcing and roasting our coffee on our own: we opened our full-scale roastery alongside our second shop on Anacapa Street.

2015

GROWING STORES & FAMILY

We expanded again, this time into Goleta. Our Storke shop opened 3 months after our second baby was born.

2022

OUR FOURTH RETAIL LOCATION

After the pandemic delayed opening by 2 years, we opened our 4th shop on Calle Real in Goleta. Serving our Goleta community is rad!
