When driving South (from the Bay Area) Kreuzberg has become a MUST stop. Their Breakfast Burrito and Coffee Cake are wonderful. Together with an Americano it is always great to interrupt your trip in such a pleasant café. In addition it is worthwhile to explore San Luis Obispo.

The chai is not super sweet and delicious. Lots of students here are diligently studying and working hard! You can bring dogs too since it’s outdoors. Plenty of outdoor seating.

There was a limited menu when we visited however we thought the breakfast burrito was delicious! You order the counter before you take a seat. The line was out the door by the time we got there around 11:00 a.m. There was a QR code for the menu outside for us to look at, but it took us to the wrong website... so Im not sure what that was about. Overall, the staff was courteous, the food was good, and the ambiance was nice. Id recommend going if you have been to San Luis Obispo before, but if its your first time visiting there are better places to go to.

Breakfast burrito is a good size at a good price of $10. Their coffee and tea however is pretty pricey for the size/quality

Kreuzbergs is a GREAT shop!! The atmosphere is very hip, warm and all around enjoyable. Their design is super cool in an eclectic way. They have inside and outside spaces that provide little nooks, corners and rooms for privacy as well as providing a unique surrounding making each visit feel like youre in a different little coffee shop of in some cool foreign country.The staff are always cheerful and on it, definitely worth a tip for great service! And, the reason you go, the product is top notch!! All the drinks as well as the eats, high quality flavor and ingredients.

Love the atmosphere and the whole coffee shop design! The ice latte isn’t too milky, and you can actually taste the slight sweetness (and no bitter at all) from the coffee.

A place for anyone and everyone. Lots of room to find your own niche, have some great coffee, or a bite to eat (breakfast, lunch, or pastry), 4 beers on tap $6, or a nice glass of wine. Sit outside and enjoy the people watching with dog in tow, or find any of numerous places inside and do some studying with the local college crowd. One of my very favorite places!

My fave coffeeshop in San Luis obispo. Friendly staff and a cozy place to relax and just chat. I wish they still serve the chocolate cake though.

Coolest little coffee shop/cafe/bar. wide range of high quality items from specialty coffee to breakfast and lunch items to kombucha on tap. think of every trend and this place has it. I got the Mexican mocha with almond milk and it was really good, not too spicy or sweet. everything bagel with cream cheese was a bit lame but they have way more to offer. tots were delicious, and the acai bowl is also a must. employees were also knowledgeable and very nice. a must go to place here in SLO, stands above the other coffee shops.

Grabbing an early morning coffee is like entering into a little fantasy world. The ambiance, the music and the decor all lend themselves to a relaxing place to enjoy some really good coffee

Review №16

Great coffee, some of my favorite because the cafe doesnt have sharp acidic flavor to it. a great place to study as there is a lot of seating and some outlets. the staff are cool and friendly. the food is pretty good at decent prices. I ordered a latte and an afogato (ice cream in an espresso shot)

Re
Review №17

One of my favorite places in SLO! They have incredible food and drinks, and quick service. Might be a challenge to grab a table during the day, but definatepy worth it. Its also open relatively late, which is nice if you need a place to hang out for a while and get some work done. Would definately reccomend!

Review №18

This is an amazing cafe, and really just soothing. Its a kind of hip/retro/alternative. The music is calming and the environment and the energy is just very peaceful and puts you in a sense of ease. The coffee here is amazing 💕😍. The food is good, a little tip is dont get the broccoli soup 😂. The turkey pesto is a flavorful sandwich that I encourage you guys to try, I assure you it will not disappoint. Enjoy!!! 😘

The food, atmosphere and coffee are all excellent. It can get a bit loud so keep that in mind when deciding if this is where you’d like to have a meal or sit down to work for a bit. Like many spots in the area, they have large garage door windows they will open on a nice day.

Review №27

We came on Thanksgiving morning so not the most amazing timing. This was almost the only place that was open so it was packed... They ran out of the waffle and it took us 25 minutes to get our food :/ However we did like the place and it seems like it should be great on normal days... About 1/3 of the menu was vegan ❤️ They had a nice outdoors area and the food was not the healthiest but yummy.

Review №28

No praise will ever do the service and foods of this fine establishment justice. The decor is thru the roof out there with service that is productive yet warming. Everything is served with a level quality and care that is a tremendous notch up from anything else youll find in SLO, and though youll pay a little more, the experience remains greater than the price you pay.From fresh Acai Bowls to Mochas laced with chocolate to chicken sandwiches flavored with taste to fries done in another dimension, God Bless Kreuzberg

Great little spot for hanging out and having some excellent coffee. They have a super cool vibe and everything seems to have some kind of meaning in the down low. I am not a local so it’s a bit confusing. But nothing a few questions can’t answer. I wouldn’t go here to find a quiet atmosphere. But overall a great spot

Had a pickup order that was 5 minutes late. Barista then was extremely rude telling us that we couldn’t have any lids even if I needed to drive. Asked another barista and he gave me a lid by splitting my drink. Coffee was actually pretty good though. Go for drinks! Don’t expect any service.

This is my go-to place when in SLO. Enjoy great coffee while I work, & always take home a pound of Poor but Sexy beans. Food is good too. Quiet spot are the side pod areas, if you need to have a meeting (also seem to be most popular spot). Otherwise, lots of seating inside and out.

What an amazing gem in downtown slo. This place has some of the best coffee in town and the ambiance inside is truly exceptional. I had the breakfast burrito which was delicious and filling with a cafe au le. The coffee was tasty and fresh and the staff had it all made in under 10 minutes. When I am back in slo again I will be coming back no question.

I havent been in about 5 years but wow! What a change. My wife and I met a friend here for evening coffee and the place was very cozy and relaxing. We both truly enjoyed our evening out and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who enjoys coffee, and having a quiet social experience.

Review №55

Their pour overs are always the best. They roast their coffee really well and you can tell that they train their baristas well also.I don’t know why, but most third wave coffee shops feel so sterile. You can almost predict what they’ll look like; white walls, minimalistic furniture and artwork, probably some cactus or other odd greenery. Kreuzberg doesn’t do that. They actually have some character and unique qualities and I love that about this shop. It’s always a stop when I come into town.

This is the best coffee shop I have ever been to in the whole world. Truly! Great hipster, chill, and non-judgmental vibe. Great drinks and great food! I personally love the John Locke sandwich. You can do work in peace or have a group outing. I love to sit in the front in the window and watch the activity ok the street as I do my work. Kreuzberg is the coolest!!!🥇

Great lattes and snacks and during the day there is almost always at least one chair open to sit and enjoy your drink or to study/work. Great location and friendly staff. The breakfast burrito is certainly filling!

Review №67

This coffee shop is really cool and definitely had lasted longer than I thought it would. They roast the coffee on site And make the breakfast foods there as well. The coffee is well made and tastes great. The staff is hit or miss (thus the 4/5) and sometimes can be amazing and other times can be snobby, hipster kids. This is a great place to come to get a delicious cup of coffee or latte and sit and read a good book or study for a few hours. I would recommend it for its atmosphere and ambiance if not for the staff.

Review №68

Very popular coffee/lunch/cocktail lounge spot. Be sure to look at the paper menus next to the cashier. Large selection of food, drinks, from coffee, tea to Beer and cocktails. Lots of seating options including outside for people watching on the sidewalk to upstairs rooms. Order at the bar and food will be brought to you by the number tag you will be provided. A bit of metal music. Lots of University aged people, lots of laptops.

Delicious coffee (especially the lattes)! The baked goods are also really tasty, and staff was patient in suggesting their personal favorites and also kind when I needed a bag to carry my purchased items. The ambience of this place is the best around! Adorable window seats, spacious tables, and the room upstairs has great views of downtown as well as being a bit more secluded and quieter.

Review №72

They toast their coffee beans in house. The atmosphere is somewhat of a deluge of college archetypes. Very warm, very welcoming. Food is amazingly sweet and savory. Baked type goods not meals. Unless you have the munchies, after all it is San Luis Obispo

Review №77

Positive atmosphere, good food and a fun place to hangout or catch up on some work. The place looks nice but theyve removed a lot if the seating during remodelling so be aware that finding group seating is tricky. It can also get a bit loud in the busy hours.

Review №78

The place has potential. But the potential is completely unfulfilled. I had avocado toast. The toast wasn’t toasted. The avo and tomato were cold. Straight out of the refrigerator cold. My double shot espresso was delivered as a barely warm single shot. My wife’s strong latte was weak and barely warm. It wasn’t busy. Maybe 10 other customers. And 4 staff. The counter server messed up not one or two, but three parts of my order. Wow! So bad.

Huge and very cool space. I grabbed a hot chocolate here but will definitely go back for a coffee sometime. I enjoyed the fact that they gave me a tiny cookie for my hot chocolate. The internet is fast and there are ample tables and even these two cool corner rooms that face the street. The place was a bit loud. The day I went they had live music which was pretty cool.

We didn’t know what to expect, since this was our first time here. The chai latte was yummy. My partner had the classic brekky, and he was very happy with it. Everything was hot and tasty. I had the breakfast sando, and I was disappointed. The toast was cold and dry when I got the sandwich. The eggs were cold. The tomato was mushy. I looked at other orders coming out of the kitchen, and they looked good, so I think my sandwich may have been one-time mistake. We’ll try it again, and I’ll order something else.

Was asked to leave(in an unprofessional way)because I hadnt purchased anything yet. Even others near were making comments about it. As much as Ive purchased there before, this makes me not want to go back. I dont blame the employee(the messenger), but I do blame the management. I will recommend people NOT to go there until I receive an apology and further explanation.

Bro. Gross. Nitro was sour and watery. And an iced oat milk mocha that was also sour and so so thick with minimal mocha flavor. Like. 😕 how was it all so bad?Throw in some extra hipster smugness and ya got your place a real winner here. Not.The place itself looked cool though. So I guess if you’re doing it for the gram this is the place for you.

They have a great cup of coffee but the closest I have found to a real cappuccino like I discovered in Italy. It seems to be a great study spot but there are a lot of sounds and a lot of people meeting for food. There are all types of seating which is nice for if you go alone or a bigger group. I love all the nooks in this place too. Its a must see place if you go to SLO
