“ What? 5 stars and 300 reviews? Are these guys juicing? Not a chance pal, Surf Lounge is legit. Vibes? Immaculate. Coffee? On point. Theyve got their own proprietary flavored syrups to mix into lattes and other drinks that will make your taste buds dance. Sweet merch and local art on the inside, plenty of space for a larger group hang out in the back. Also, did you know theyre making surfboards there? You can sip your tasty beverage and watch a master at work. Everyone who works there is awesome. If you hate good coffee and good people this probably isnt your scene. Otherwise, surf, lounge, repeat. ”
“ Youre getting more than coffee here. After relocating alone out here, its a spot I feel welcomed comfortable. Every time. The flavors are craft from their personal syrups and concoctions. I love a chai and theirs exceeds any run of the mill powder youll land at most shops. I recommend this to any community members who enjoy supporting a positive welcoming environment. ”
“ To this day, this coffee is still some of the best Ive ever had. Definitely hard to beat a coffee on the way down to the beach. It was a cute small cart outside a surf shop and they even give discounts for walking! I was just visiting, but I dream about going back on a regular basis. Awesome coffee with house made syrups and they even have raw milk! ”
“ great coffee, great vibes, and amazing boards. I was stoked when co owner Derek shaped a board for me. Its so beautiful but its also incredible in the water. So easy to turn with it for a fish. Thanks Surf lounge team ”
