GREAT COFFEE, GELATO, TREATS & GIFTS of all kinds... A local favorite and an americano to die for. Unique drinks, lavender lemonade and a great place to pick up a souvineer to remember your stay in Ventura. I love to go her on Saturdays before the farmers market! It is also my go to place for cards and gifts.
