Best coffee I've had here. The almond-milk vanilla latte is to die for.

Best coffee in Isla Vista and probably Goleta. Cortado/Gibraltar is my go to. Half steamed milk half espresso. Super smooth. I don't get the food as it seems overpriced, but that is the case in all coffee shops.
Christian Gutierrez
Love the drinks here. Both times that I have been here, I have been extremely pleased with my drink and I think I will continue to come here in the future!
Rebecca Lindholm Webb
Good coffee (Handlebar), tea, smoothies, bowls and bagels. Usually pretty busy, sometimes hard to find seating. Nice staff. No bathroom.
Alex Monroy

Best coffee shop in IV
Trish Raco
This place has an amazing atmosphere that makes it challenging to leave. The staff is both friendly and knowledgeable with their drinks. The Bela Rose is one of the best matcha teas I've had. This drink was not only beautifully presented, but tasted fantastic. Highly recommend this place.

Love this place, great acai bowls. Mine had hemp seeds and honey granola. Also had a works breakfast bagel which was decent, not as good as bagels from IV Bagel. Latte had oat milk, which is rare. Love the little touches and unique flavors here.

the Bowl #7 açaà bowl is the most amazing breakfast I’ve had in my life. PB on top changes the game â¤ï¸ðŸ™ŒðŸ»

The breakfast bagels are simply delicious. The wait in line is way too long though and you will need to be patient.

Gourmet coffee roasters & coffee. Friendly setting in a college town.
Sam Spurling
Nice location, decent seating and good food for a rather fair price.
Manuel Quiroz
Great coffee and bagel sandwiches. Had an espresso that was delicious and a tasty mushroom cheese bagel sandwich with tomato and avocado. Nice outdoor patio for me and my dog.

Just finished a monster of a meal at Caje and loved every mouthful. I had the avocado toast to start followed by an Açaà bowl. The avocado toast was amazing, a thick piece of bread with a hearty spread of smashed avo drizzled with tangy balsamic. I didn’t have much room left but had to try the Açaà bowl which was a generous serving of fresh berries and bananas atop granola and AçaÃ, honey and chia seeds. Wow. So delicious I finished every morsel. I might need help walking out of here but I’m happy:)

Great little spot! Friendly cashiers, good coffee and teas, good food, and minimal wait times. They also have a ton of seating inside and out.
Jenny Christensen
Delicious beverage and food offerings with friendly and helpful staff. Good vegan offerings both with beverages and food.
Cathy Miller
I always stop at this coffee shop when I'm in town. They know how to make the best coffee around. Some people don't know how to make a macchiato, or it tastes horrible, but this shop has me dreaming about theirs. The milk is perfectly steamed and just the right amount is put into each cup. They obviously use very high quality coffee.Every time I come in, the staff is very friendly and happy to see me. They are also very quick so you can stop in quickly. If you're looking for great coffee, this place is amazing.

Great place to sit, study and have a peaceful time.
Morgan Ingle
Best staff in IV with good coffee, great latte art, and bomb bagels.
Daniel Freed
Amazing everything! Just go

The place can be busy at times. I liked their cappuccino.
MrDevanWright
Best drinks anywhere, no doubts. We got the caramel blended with two add shots and it was perfect. It wasn't too sweet, wasn't too watered, perfectly blended throughout. Additionally, the espresso shots were pulled perfectly, and tasted phenomenal. We also got the strawberry lemonade smoothie and it tasted amazing as well. It wasn't too sweet, it didn't taste artificial, and it had a swell aftertaste. The prices are competitive, and I'm hoping my drinks are just as good next time, whenever that may be.
Javier Lopez
Great place for coffee, tea, smoothies, and acai bowls. Would be 5 stars but no bathroom.
Nithesh Perumal
Overpriced, but definitely a nice place to sit down and study.

The absolute best matcha in the world - get the Bella rose with almond milk, you won’t regret it! And make sure to come by the Lab Social at night. Cajé becomes a bar that makes great cocktails, happy hour from 5:30-7:30. I have yet to have a bad experience here.
Lucia Reynoso
The smoothies here are breakfast in a cup. They have bagels, tea, and coffee too, but I go here so I can get a bunch of fruit blended with something like kale or avocado or peanut butter and attach it to my mouth like a feeding tube and slurp it up. There’s never enough seats indoors but the outdoor seats on the side have heaters for chilly weather.

The food in this place FILLS you. Those acai bowls are just a huge healthy meal. Also the matcha latteis by far the best I have had, very well mixed and not bitter. Seating is hard though, so if you can find a spot, great but you likely won't.
Laurent Montesi
Great place! Coffee is excellent (and not expensive!), the açai bowls are amazing, and the staff makes an effort to remember you even after just a couple days! I just wished there wasn't a surcharge (20 ct) for credit card but that won't stop me from returning there whenever I'm in IV.
Zephyr McIntyre
Hmmm, this place is the same as 8 years ago when it opened. I had one summer with Caje before graduating. Came back and it's still the same. So weird for IV.
Gary Eser
Friendly staff good coffee putdoor seating
alex kohanim
Great atmosphere. Great coffee. Nice place to get some studying in.
Justin Kelp
The coffee beans themselves are from handlebar (a local coffee roaster) and can be exceptional. The standard brewing can leave something to be desired in terms of bringing out the best. No pour over options, and a generally over packed by students location makes Cajé a place I won't go out of my way for.The staff are always polite, and always make your drink to order. The sandwiches are good, and the location when it isn't crowded can be very cozy. There aren't great options around IV, but within a few miles there are far, far better choices.

really good but pricy

If god had to eat, he would eat right here
Balakrishnan Vasudevan
Love their coffee!! Good ambience
David Riccardo
good acai
Joshua Martin
The great coffee was worth the wait! Laid back atmosphere and I'll have to try the food next time!
Madison Dixson
On the off chance that I get to work from home, I work from Caje! I'm obsessed with their Carmel latte. It's not too sweet and you still get a hint of espresso. I cannot comment on their food but the atmosphere and staff are wonderful. Love the free WiFi. Only disappointment is their outside seating- the table is too high for the seats making it really weird to work at // however inside is comfy.
Gavin Yancey
The lavender honey latte is truly delicious.
Angel Hernandez
Latte on point!Smoothie delicious!Acia bowl, YUMMM!Fast service!
Emil Redner
I stopped here during my first time at UCSB. I was wanting something before headed to the beach. The woman were so patient and answered all my questions. The blended Mocha latte was delicious and easily dairy free accomodating. I def recommend.
