Urth Caffè Santa Monica

Urth Caffè is the America’s first only organic coffee company with six different locations in Southern California each with their own ambiance and architecture. The peculiar name of the cafe comes from two words: Urth is an old Welsh root spelling of Earth and Caffè is Italian for coffee. So with combination they want a name that embodies the natural richness of the Earth and the delicious organic coffee.

While we were in Santa Monica, my girlfriend @ninamclernon and I went to Urth Caffe thanks to our friend’s recommendations. We did really enjoyed the place and here’s our feedback about it.

First of all, we loved the little patio outside where you can sit in the midst of a warm sunny day. The cafe is located in a hopping part of town and resides within one of the more unique buildings I’ve seen in Santa Monica.. Not only is the architecture kind of funky, but a good portion extends into a wall-less porch that takes in the California sun wonderfully. All together, the place really pleases the eyes and the amount of people packed into the place really spoke to it’s popularity!

As far as their coffee and tea, Urth Caffè serves only organic and roasts their own coffee! They have a great selection of black, green, white, and oolong teas from the most famous tea gardens of the world.

We came here even though we already had an early breakfast but the temptation of checking out the place and try their sweets was too much! I ordered a banana pastry with chocolate chips on top. It came with a beautiful orchid flower next to it! I had also a fresh juice from the bar squeezed from seasonal fruits. I finished it before even realizing! On the other hand, my girlfriend ordered a slice of lemon poppyseed cake and a smoothie.

If you’re in Santa Monica and looking for a good and healthy coffee, dessert or a fresh juice in a really nice cafe, stop by Urth Caffè. It’s a must! 😉

I’m giving Urth Caffè 4.5 hearts our of 5!
