Had a great impromptu late lunch at Alta. I live that they have seating inside, seating outside under a covering, and seating in the sun with umbrellas. The options for seating was great, the service was awesome and super friendly, and my decaf hot mocha was amazing!!!! 10/10 on that alone and I went to several different coffee shops during our stay in Newport.
Excellent breakfast/ coffee spot!! We loved the atmosphere and fantastic, fresh meal! Coffee was great too! Our kind of vibe!
Food drinks always delicious!!! But if your in a rush make sure you order ahead… it does take some time to get food, but it’s worth the wait. Staff are super friendly. The bathrooms are always well maintained. My personal favorite is the chai mix (vanilla/spice) and the lox. But… everything I have bought over the years is always been good. Street Parking is limited on the street (at the moment they are doing construction on a building across the street so they have 3-4 street parking a blocked), but there is a marking lot at the corner. Makes sure you pay for parking the bike patrol are pretty quick.
Today was our second time to Alta- we had come a couple years ago and it was such a cute, quaint, somewhat hidden coffee shop that had a sf wharf/garden vibes feel to it. Today we stopped by and it was a completely different experience- the staff was not welcoming, nor nice, the chai latte was disgusting and so so so sweet- seemed like a powder mix for $7 a drink. Overpriced and VERY sub-par- I recommend to everyone to go checkout a different coffee shop north or south from there. They seemed very “business minded” and dont care about customers coming back and for that price I can go elsewhere. Also merry day after christmas.
Love this place! Their Vanilla Chia is fire and we had lunch here for the first time and the food is great too! We had a salad, sandwich, and smoothie. Atmosphere was great, this will be one of our usual spots.
You would never know they were a hole an wall restaurant....
Really impressed with the food ( it was delicious 😋 ).
The only downside is there is no parking for the establishment, so you have to pay for parking on the street. It can be impossible to find a spot during certain times, but worth it!
Stopped here last week for breakfast while visiting family who was in town. What a cozy, charming place. Service was great and breakfast was healthy and delicious!
You have the best honey lattes you don’t get at Starbucks over here.☕️
Love the adorable seating area outside 🧂🍽️
Don’t overlook this venue if you need to grab breakfast or brunch.
Come give these folks a try! ‼️
Really good food and coffee (had the toffee latte - great flavor and not too sweet). Their chocolate chip cookies were also really good. Will definitely eat here again!
