The coffee here is excellent, smooth, rich, and expertly brewed. The menu has great variety, from daily brew to flat whites and chai, and everything is reasonably priced. The interior is full of charm with art, vintage café posters, and a welcoming, laid-back vibe. Friendly staff, fast service, and plenty of seating.

This cafe is one of few opened early. It was so nice to grab hot good coffee in early morning chilly day. It was great stop before long hiking. We had ham and cheese croissants with coffee, it was crispy warm as they served. Staff were friendly. I love entrance outside look.

We visited your coffee shop couple of months ago from NZ On our travels to the USA. After traveling 4 states, I still haven't found an double shot espresso that was as memorable. big thanks to your staff and delightful atmosphere.

An Ojai institution! Been coming here for more than 20 years and there's no better place in town to watchtower world roll by. If you like a bit of human noise while you work, like me, it's a great place to post up for an hour. The staff a friendly and won't make you feel like they're rushing to get you out and clear a table. The coffee is house roasted and top notch.

I’m so glad that Ojai Coffee can ship a variety of their specialty coffees so we can enjoy them at home. After relaxing with a mug at their place in Ojai and since we live a few hours away, I couldn’t sign up fast enough for delivery. Inside the box of coffees there is always a sweet personalized note written to us thanking us for our order and enjoy your coffee. Love it!!

Neighborhood coffee shop with lots of breakfast and lunch options. Fresh pastries, coffee drinks, smoothies, sandwiches, and more. They also sell their roasted coffee beans (many varieties). I ordered an acai bowl and my husband, a fresh bearpaw. (He had a choice of a fresh or day old). Everything we had was excellent. I really enjoyed the acai bowl, which was plenty to eat. Berries and granola on the top and bottom of the bowl with acai puree sandwiched in between. We both had a 16 oz cappuccino. Excellent coffee, and the foam was thick and had staying power through to the last sip. I opted for my coffee in a porcelain mug, which makes it more special. For whatever reason, hubby always gets a paper cup. Many people had their laptops and were working/surfing with their breakfast. Local art was hanging on the walls for sale. If you are looking for a cute local eatery/coffee joint, this is the place. Highly recommend.

An absolute gem. I’m admittedly very picky about matcha; and they make a perfect one. Coffee and pastries are great, too. Staff is incredibly helpful, nice. Very cute atmosphere. I mean, what’s not to love?

Great indoor spot to get work done. Not much or any outdoor seating, so not the most dog friendly, but it's super quiet from the busy street outdoors. Great bagels

Great spot located in the middle of town and walking distance to all the shops. They roast so many different types of organic coffee (the selection is amazing!) and have organic matcha. We enjoyed not only their drinks but were pleasantly surprised by how delicious and filling their food was too! We loved the veggie quiche, Greek salad, and veggie sandwich the most! They mostly have indoor seating available with two tables located outside by the sidewalk. The staff is extremely accommodating, friendly, and helpful! Thank you Anna for the great service and thank you Stacy for all the right recommendations! The ambiance is like a coffeehouse/cafe, perfect place to grab a delicious and quick bite while in Ojai! We will definitely be back!

Cute coffee place and seems like there are a lot of patrons that go here. We ended up with the lavender latte because we thought Ojai was known for lavender. It kinda tasted really sharp and syrupy. I'm unsure if they extracted the syrup from real lavender or if it was fake. It just didn't taste as good as I thought it would be. The coffee itself tasted decent, but the drink was not as good as I was expecting.

I was really hoping for better out of a coffee roaster. Ordered an espresso and the baristas were not knowledgable in the least about the beans they were pulling. The shot was super watery and bitter and it seemed like they just left it running for way too long. I would look elsewhere for better coffee in Ojai!

Tried their avocado toast yesterday; delicious! I appreciated the type of bread they use as well as the toppings. FYI, my picture only shows 2 of the 3 slices that they serve... not sure how that 3rd slice disappeared before I took my picture!

Stopped by on a Friday afternoon with my partner while visiting Ojai. It was very busy, and there was a line to order. The coffee shop is small but lovely. We got lucky and found a table. Great place to chat with friends or work/study if you don't mind the chatter. There is art along the walls for sale too. The cashier was extremely kind, friendly, and helpful. We ordered the Berry smoothie, Lox and Bagel Platter, and Broccoli Cheddar Quiche. We absolutely loved Lox and Bagel platter. It was a bit messy to make ourselves and eat but it was great to choose how much of everything we wanted on our bagel. Tasted delicious!! The smoothie tasted alright - pretty standard. We were very excited for the quiche since we are both big fans of broccoli cheddar but unfortunately we didn't love the taste. Overall, we had a good experience and enjoyed most of our food. I would recommend this place and visit again if I'm in town again. Parking: Plenty of free street parking nearby

Funny thing is when I looked them up on yelp and looked at her photos. It looked like they sold organic coffee, which is why I was really looking forward to have. When I got there to my surprise, I really didn't see anything organic beans wise or what they're selling for coffee wasn't clearly met so the reason why I'm giving it three stars is because I came I saw I left. The reason why I left is upon us walking in and they were semi busy not a single employee looked up and greeted at us. Now I don't know about you but even at Starbucks they say hello no matter how busy they are. Pete coffee always greet you with a smile regardless how slim they are. Place smell good and they were busy so it was a testament to their coffee shop and I'm being generous for three stars versus two. It's the holidays after all No management you were one of the few freshly ground coffee houses in Ojai I think your staff can be a little friendlier

It's been more than 5 years since I drank their coffee but never had a chance to post a review about Ojai Coffee Roasters. Today, we had the Sumatra Coffee and my salivary glands really went to full excretions, hahahahha! Ojai Roasters never fail to amaze me with whatever they roast for the day; be it Colombian, Sumatran or African, their coffee are really the best! They also bake fresh treats which goes well with any of the roasted coffee of the day. All of their coffee are sourced from the best and purest coffee farmers everywhere and they taste like freshly roasted beans. I always try to smell the aroma, snort (exaggerated) the smoke before I slowly and calmly gargle it to allow my taste bud and salivary glands to immerse myself to maximum enjoyment. So, when you're in the Ojai area, drop by Ojai Coffee Roasters and have a taste of Sumatra, Colombia, Africa or wherever they source them. Oh, let me get back to my cup!

Fantastic experience. Cute atmosphere, plenty of seating, myriad options, friendly cashier, great cold brew (not too strong or too weak - it is PERFECT). I don't know what more you could ask for in a coffee shop!

I ride my motorcycle all over the place, different near and far cities, in my free time. Ojai Coffee Roasters has the best Mocha I have found. It's perfect and the vibe here is unbeatable. Great staff. A+ across the board. Even the 3 different OCR shirts I've bought are super comfortable.

Enjoyable shop that usually has a decent crowd. Service is attentive and helpful. It's a great shop, but their roast could be a bit better in my opinion. Best coffee in the close area though for sure!

Living in Santa Barbara almost all my life I was nervous to move to Ojai because of my local coffee shop. But I can truly say this has been our go-to and our new weekend routine :) the staff are just as amazing as the coffee. Love to keep it local *update* After looking at the photos I realized my most recent trip the owner helped me. They had crumb cake which is my grandmas favorite, she's has been passed away for 8 years now, and little things like this make me smile. The owner said it's the best crumb cake and got a piece to take home. She told me I hope your grandma enjoys it! I said oh she will :) it brought me a teary smile but it really made my day.

Such a cute coffee in the most adorable town I've visited so far I ordered the vanilla latte with coconut milk and it was made perfectly. Service was great and vibe cozy. So glad I made a quick stop to grab my afternoon coffee from this spot.

**3.5 Cute little coffee shop in DT Ojai, one of the few ones that are open later in the weekend (3PM and beyond) Was looking for a late afternoon cafe boost and figured to try this spot out. Got myself a flat white ratio a little off, definitely more milk than espresso there. The pull was a little off, it was a little dry and a wee oxidized. It was over-extracted, so if you're a black coffee kinda person this place may not be it. Or maybe add flavoring to it :) Place is clean and has a rustic charm and I do super appreciate that the staff are nice :)

I had a chai latte, and it was meh. There was some grainy texture I didn't know what it was. The drink is kind of bland.

This place offers your standard coffee and pastries. It's easy to get to, nothing fancy but consistently good. The service has always been good and the ambience reminds me of a coffee Bean or Ground Works.

The coffee shop is just darling, and it smells INCREDIBLE. The line can be long, but service is fairly quick, and the line moves. I do wish there was more seating inside, but real estate is limited and it's expensive, so I get it. The coffee and tea are good. We did not try the food items because we had just eaten and couldn't stand the thought of eating anything more, so I can't comment on those.

Thank you OCR for providing a buy one get one offer just for checking in for the first time! My family was visiting Ojai and we stopped in to bring some fresh ground coffee to take home. Ojai Roasters looked welcoming from the outside and was also charming on the inside with some seating. Your friendly staff was happy to grind the whole beans. Your Topa Topa house blend was so pure in taste. Our house thoroughly enjoyed it. We used the buy one get one coffee which was great for an afternoon pick me up!

It was my first time ever visiting Ojai, CA so admist a day of strolling and shopping, we came across this coffee joint. When checking in through the YELP APP, I noticed a 50% off deal for any ONE drink. That's such a generous offering. We ordered their homemade chai and lavender iced latte. Both were quite delicious and tasty. I wish the chai was slightly stronger in flavor because it was rather light even when stirring the drink with the chai residue off the bottom cup. Friendly staff and cute space.

I'm not a coffee drinker but often times coffee shops are good for a quick bite and I usually get a tea or other non-coffee drink. I was feeling a little peckish so I picked the ham and cheese croissant and an iced green tea. The ham and cheese croissant had big chunks of ham in there but there were some parts that weren't toasted but burnt, which meant I picked some of the pastry was removed as collateral damage. My iced green tea was made fresh which was nice but the combination of very hot tea + some ice = a lukewarmish tea. I would have asked for more ice but the line started getting very long and it became a diminishing return kind of thing.

This was the best cafe in the area from the ones we tried. The coffee was good The food was delicious - we had the broccoli and cheddar quiche and the ham and cheese croissant. The croissant was fluffy and good. It had the right ratio of ham and cheese. I only wish they had some of the chocolate or almond croissants left. We were there at 9am so not sure if they had already run out or they just don't make them every day. My sparkling probiotic drink was surprisingly good as well and was a local brand

My favorite coffee shop to visit when in Ojai. Love the vibe of this place. I had a caramel macchiato and it was delicious. I grabbed the last piece of carrot cake ... took a bite of it before taking a picture! It was so moist & flavorful. One of the best carrot cakes I've ever had. The cream cheese frosting was rich & creamy ... topped with crunchy almonds. Great service from the barista!

A nice local coffee shop with a busy vibe in the mornings. Good location, multiple pastries with an on-site owner directing traffic inside the shop. Some nice conversations with locals and visitors alike - and a great location in Ojai. Neither Kevin or Reese were here ... but I did meet a local vet (retired) and a fantastic artist while here. Nice town. Nice big TREES !!! Good start to the day each morning ~

Chai tea is excellent with just right flavor and sweetness. Must try the lemon bar too.

Got a chai with almond milk, but they made it with regular milk. 1.5 hours later (and many trips to the restroom), I was able to go back to ask if they could make it for me. The barista was very rude, saying that since it was over an hour, she would have to ask her manager, and walked away from me as I was explaining why I wasn't about to return in that time frame, and refused to throw away my original cup, telling me I needed to go outside to throw it away. It was such a disappointing experience, will not be returning.

Cute coffee shop conveniently located right in the center of town. They have a good selection of tea (both iced and hot), coffee, and food/snacks. I ordered the lemon hibiscus and mango iced tea (both refreshing and good). Husband ordered americano, also good. Friends ordered lattes and matcha and enjoyed them. I also like that they have GF options and could probably modify a few of their vegetarian options to make them vegan (though I didn't confirm). Service was quick and friendly. Very attentive. We went here at least 3 times this past weekend at varying levels of busyness and had positive experiences each time.

After waiting for someone to take my order 6+ minutes a line formed behind me to the door. Once my order was placed I couldn't find a good place to stand to wait for my order. Who I can only assume was the owner started asking me aggressively what I was doing and I said waiting for my order. A seat opened up so I sat and Then she asked if I had paid. I answered yes and then a few moments later even more aggressively she asked me what I was doing again. I said yet again waiting for my order. Apparently she thought I ordered a carafe of coffee but never even asked me if that's what I was waiting for. She was aggressive from the beginning. All of the other staff was overwhelmed but kind, but I wouldn't take the chance of being harassed after spending 30+ dollars.

I stopped today for ice coffee and a pastry. I loved their vast selection of flavors for the coffee and all the pastries looked so good. The one I picked was amazing. Both gals working when I stopped in were so helpful and really made my visit so comfortable. They both seemed like they wanted to be there making each customers visit enjoyable.

We went after getting engaged for a good cup of coffee. The owner was so funny, sweet and very real. These are humans, not machines. You want a smile? You want a facade? Go to Starbucks. You want Ojai realness and human interaction? Go here. The coffee is great. The spiciness of the humans are awesome. The merch is lovely. The ambiance is Ojai to a tee. That "rude older lady" is a gem. The complaints on this page are ridiculous. You had to wait in line? Boo hoo. You get quality coffee. You get a cool Ojai experience. Take it or leave it.

I never buy coffee as much when going out. I usually make it at home. I decided to try this place when i went to visit Ojai. I was craving a coffee and i thought of giving the place a try. It was interesting to go inside and loved the smell of coffee. I had purchased a cup of two shots of espresso with oatmilk. I paid with my card and noticed the lady right away looked to see if i tipped. Her attitude changed real quick because i didnt, im not obligated to pay more for 2 shots and some oatmilk on it. You can criticize me all you want but im a paying customer, not a rich man to be donating money. When i got the coffee I realized there wasnt even any oatmilk in it It seemed as if there was only 2-3 drops of milk at all. Im sure if i would have tipped it would have been another story.

I had the most pleasant surprise this morning. I decided to try Ojai Coffee Roasters this morning. Pleasant, welcoming, I needed some coffee ground(I am working a camp up in Ojai Valley), no problem. My coffee was terrific, I had the spinach feta quiche which was fabulous, I must get the recipe!!! A really enjoyable experience that I will do again! Thank you OCR

Great coffee with an Ojai attitude. Baristas made sure to clarify the order with my specific desires, and the drink was delectable. From the first taste, I loved the blend. Knowledgeable staff, balanced beans, and bright and welcoming space. My go to whenever I'm in Ojai. Maybe I'll take some beans home too...

You can't go wrong with the Lavender Mocha Latte! I love it. And I enjoy seeing the local artists on display along the big wall. The wait can be a bit long, which I don't care for, and I never really see a gluten free option that's appealing (but that's just me). It's a nice place to stop when prowling the avenue.

Had the best experience here recently - ordered a macchiato and the server was so friendly. Then I tasted the coffee and it was SO good!! It was using their espresso blend. I kept thinking about it and a few days later back in LA I reached out on email to see if their espresso blend is ok to use in a French press. Stacey responded with the loveliest email and yes, it's fantastic in a French Press - I know as I ordered it and now I'm trying not to make several coffees a day because I'm enjoying it so much. Smooth, rich and beautiful flavor. Their customer service was just the best and I'm going to keep returning and ordering more of this Ojai magic in a cup!

In fairness, my girlfriend and I arrived on a Sunday morning on a long weekend, but this place was packed. The wait to order was long, but it went fairly fast. However, to receive our iced lattes too so long and I noticed the baristas couldn't remember what drinks were what when a few were left on the counter. Price seemed normal compared to other coffee shops and parking was found on the street. Coffee flavor was okay, noting profound.
