What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"Tucked into the quiet charm of Rancho Santa Fe, this little coffee spot feels like it was made for slow mornings and easy afternoons. The setup is simple — white tile, wood accents, a few outdoor tables under umbrellas — but it’s exactly the kind of vibe that makes you want to linger with a good cup in hand. I went with a caramel latte and a breakfast burrito, and honestly, the flavors delivered. The latte was smooth, balanced, and just sweet enough — no sugar bomb here, just that nice caramel note that rounds it out. The burrito came out warm and hearty, filled generously and perfect alongside the coffee. My only pause? At $18 for both, it leans pricey, especially given the casual setting. But in a place like Rancho Santa Fe, you kind of expect that. What I loved most was the energy — the barista was cool, service felt unhurried, and the outdoor patio let me just sit back and soak in the quiet. Sometimes that’s worth the extra few bucks. Final take: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ for quality, setting, and the kind of morning reset I’d come back for. Rancho Roasters isn’t about rushing in and out — it’s about slowing down, sipping good coffee, and enjoying the moment."
"A hidden gem. I stopped here to grab a quick cup of latte. The service was very friendly, and the coffee was perfect. It could have been a bit hotter. I also had a muffin, and it was delicious. They have outside tables to sit at and take care of business or relax."
"Would highly recommend checking the front for their specials first! Really awesome place and vibes. Especially Saturday morning!"
"Quaint little place. Outdoor seating only. They have vegan and I think gluten free options for food. Milk alternatives. The coffee is great. Great for a hangout or on the go."
"Dark Horse Coffee! The cold brew was by far one of the best I’ve found in the area. Service was quick. No indoor seating because it’s a coffee stand but there is a nice patio area. The barista was super friendly and warm and very nice. Definitely worth a stop and an A+ experience!! Easy parking. Prices were normal."
