Nautical Bean is a local coffee shop that has a extensive menu for drinks and breakfast items. They have three locations across SLO now with this being the original location
They are known for being a hip coffee shop with drinks featuring their drip coffee that you can choose variations from.
My favorite is usually the black and white which is a mocha coffee with both black and white chocolate in it.
You also can just get the drip coffee and do you own drinks.
The atmosphere is very friendly and lots of table space for people to do work or students to study. (Plugs are available at the seats near the walls)
Parking is plenty as its in the same plaza as CVS, grocery outlet, and 99c only stores

PROS:
+ Great for working!
+ Plenty of outlets available for charging devices
+ Friendly and welcoming service!
+ The patrons seem to be made up of regulars who frequent this place often
+ Fun and colorful decor — hammerhead shark, Elvis portrait, skateboards, and local art.
+ Laidback, chill vibe
+ Good playlist
+ Fun menu with lots of drink options and healthy food options. Their “House Drink” menu looks interesting and unique
+ Cabbage & Chicken Salad is fresh and large, but the dressing is a little bland. Also, the ramen noodles are an odd touch
+ Tuna Melt tastes fresh and healthy. Not greasy like most melts I’ve tried. The side of cabbage slaw is very underwhelming. Overall, the food is just okay.
+ Super easy parking
+ Convenient location by lots of shopping and eateries.
+ Nice outdoor seating
+ Good wifi
+ They offer “sippy” lids now to replace the use of straws
CONS:
– A little on the dim side. Other than that, everything else is perfect. Love this spot!

A local coffee gem! The coffee selections, friendly service and yummy food make this a regular stop for me. Lots of seating indoors and outside patios. Did I say free refills? Oh yeah!

I absolutely love nautical bean. Always delicious, fresh, hot and aromatic. Whether food or drinks, you can’t lose here. Kids love it, I love it. A lot to choose from, good prices, fast service, and outdoor seating. Support the local business, go here if you have not. Large parking lot, easy to find.

We were a group of 4 on Thursday 10/02/25. We are baby boomers but pretty cool if I say so myself. I had a Mediterranean bagel with pesto, cream cheese, tomato etc. very bland.
Very few people in @ that time. Music was good but a little loud, after eating we were just talking & barely other people. My friend is hard of hearing , went to the counter to ask about music being a little lower. They were in the back & she called a couple of times but no response , she did not yell, just made her voice louder & they came out, they lowered the music, a young lady employee
came to our table very aggressively & got in my friends face & told her next time don’t yell @: us & when she tried to explain she just huffed off, seriously in our face, I could describe her but I won’t.
My friend felt bad,tried to explain she’s hard of hearing but to no avail. So we just won’t,go there anymore which is too bad.

I understand why this place has such good reviews. Great coffee and baked goods. Using cornbread for the blueberry muffin works amazingly and the vanilla latte is perfect. Hoping to come back this week to try some sandwiches or breakfast. 4.9/5.
