Riptide Cafe

7 reasons to get your coffee here (instead of at the chain outlet across the road):

1. The coffee is tastier 😋
2. It’s locally owned and run!
3. You can **use your own cup**
4. The baristas care about you & remember personal details 💙
5. The business name is hella cool
6. It’s been here longer
7. This place adds to the community in ways that a chain outlet never will 🙏🏽

My husband and I visited Riptide Cafe at the end of August. Very friendly and timely service! I ordered a coconut and caramel iced latte. It was AMAZING! Presentation 1/5 stars - - - my cup started getting soggy and I had to switch it out to a glass when we got back to our Airbnb. I'm sure that they had JUST ran out of plastic cups or something and that it was a random occasion! I would drink it out of the same cup again if necessary - - - it was THAT good! Thank you, Riptide Cafe! It was the best iced latte I had on our trip!

Customer service and public relations are at an all time high. Molly runs the show so there’s that. She’s my fav hands down. Stay away from Dutch Bros, she can see ya! But seriously, Riptide and the personnel are my go to coffee drive thru peoples. Love n aloha always!!!

Good convenient drive thru coffeehouse. Great service. Best barista in the known universe.

Soooooo good the person who made my coconut milk cinnamon matcha knows what they’re doing it was the best matcha i’ve ever had!

Cute little drive thru, walk up coffee spot.
Line takes awhile but so does quality coffee ☺

Good coffee & tasty scones. Molly the general manager is very customer service oriented & really cares about this great stop for a cup o' joe.

We were so pleasantly surprised by this little cafe! Our Mexican mocha and Chai Latte were some of the best we’ve ever had. Lovely service! This is now our MUST STOP when visiting the coast.

Great drive-thru for a quick breakfast. Coffee was great and so was my bagel. The service with a smile started my day out wonderful

Good local coffee and good prices

Love this place! Great food and coffee. And amazing service!

I love this place! :) perfect pick-me-up with the blended mocha drink. I get mine with almond milk and it’s delicious. They always ask me if I want a straw. So appreciate this since I prefer not to waste single use plastics. They have a loyalty card and fresh bagels for a delicious breakfast or snack :) so friendly but not overly talkative like Dutch Bro’s haha <3

Ripetide has delicious espresso! Heads up you can wait a long time for coffee as they are helping a lot of people, making coffee and food, all at once. The manager there is super nice and always remembers my drink, even after just once visit. I was impressed. Thank you for best Americano with a dash of cream. Always stop here on my way to the river. Iced Americano! Yum!

Cute drive through coffee shop. They have great lates and other drinks. Vegan friendly. They also have some tasty food options.

Use to hit this spot all the time when I worked in northern Cali. Great coffee and great croissant sandwiches. Workers are awesome, too. Highly recommend pulling through.

Amazing grilled butter croissants with flavorful pesto! Good selection of coffee-based drinks. They even had ice cream and milk shakes which we'll try next time. All this in a tiny but cute drive-thru with warm service.

Want breakfast? Come here.

Lively, patient, and welcoming staff. The slug bagel with ham and cheese was better than I expected. The everything bagel seasoning really tops it off. The dirty chai is also very satisfactory here. 😊

Was amazing and quick. Asked for a recommendation and enjoyed the London Fog with Honey and Vanilla with regular milk.

Riptide straight kills it in the best way!! Got a dirty chai with a hummus bagel and it is fueling me for the day ahead. They're also really friendly. Dank food and coffee, 11/10 would recommend.

Great coffee and great service. These folks remember my drink whenever I walk up, can’t beat that. Big shout out to Molly-Joe and the amazing Riptide team!
