Caffe Bene - Santa Cruz

The best coffee in town made on a beautiful, copper-accented, espresso maker from Italy. Great scones, biscotti and croissants. Ken has an eclectic taste in music which somehow always fits the mood of the moment. Great place to meet, or just enjoy a quiet cuppa.

Best Coffee house in town full of good coffee houses. Mom and Pop place with great staff. Coffee is amazing. Get the mocha with a shot of almond. Whip cream is to die for. Pour over's are also very good. Great, fresh pastries.

Cute little home-owned cafe by an affable old man who makes you yummy cappucinos, delicious cheese omelettes (made in about a minute) and a very interesting vintage phone collection, all of which are perfectly in order. The croissants here are a guilty buttery delight.

Friendly barista made a Chai latte that my friend really enjoyed and my coffee had quite a kick to it. Would definitely come back! Also seems to have loyal clientele. *Cash only*

This is a great space to meet up with friends, enjoy each other and the friendliness of Ken as he serves you. Our Rotary group meets there every week and love it. A real local spot to share and enjoy. Plan on it.
