I’ve been here twice now, and every time has been such a pleasant experience. The atmosphere is warm, cozy, and welcoming. The owner’s mother is absolutely wonderful—very kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful when it comes to choosing substitutes or making recommendations. They offer several vegan-friendly options, which I really appreciate.
They also have cute merch like postcards, t-shirts, mugs, and even sunglasses. It gives the shop a fun, personal touch. Online ordering is available as well, which is super convenient.
I tried their iced mango matcha and it was so good. I brought my two small children with me, and the staff was very accommodating. The kids loved the decorations (they have adorable seasonal/Halloween displays right now), and it made the visit enjoyable for all of us.
We also picked up some baked goods to go—the carrot cake and the chocolate cake bread. Both were a hit with my kids, and they are VERY picky eaters, so that says a lot!

Read moreI like to support local businesses and leave reviews to help others and the owners. I tried Crave Kaffee Haus in Barstow, right off Route 66. I appreciate its local charm and style and extensive menu, however they need to work on their customer service, cashier didnt greet me and i had to creep up closer to register to be acknowledged. They need a more welcoming and hospitable service to be honest. I ordered the Blood Orange Bath Iced Coffee — intially strong coffee with a very faint hint of orange peel, nothing special. The cup quantity was misleading: wide at the top but narrow at the bottom, making it look full-sized small, when it wasn’t. For nearly $8, it wasn’t worth the price in terms of taste of coffee or quantity. Unfortunately, with rising costs, normal priced items are becoming expensive, like this. Also, their Everything bagel is $4.00. I want this business to succeed, but especially in Barstow, prices would need to be more...
Read moreGotta say, there is finally a fantastic coffee spot in the HD, near the I-15 &40 split. This makes it perfect for travelers needing a stretch break, as well as for Locals who just need quality coffee. The front of the business is unassuming and the easiest parking is in front of in the dirt lot to the side. Inside it's warm and comfy and smells simply divine. The menu board is varied and there are lots of unique suggestions. I had the caramel pecan latté. Yummy! The cookies, muffins, and bagels are fresh and will serve as a great road snack. Owner/Barista Yvonne has done an amazing job of creating a sanctuary for coffee afficianados. This place is a "must go" for...
