What customers say

Fantastic local coffee shop with vegan brunch and lunch items! I’m a complete coffee snob and proud of it. I have my go-to spots and am usually a little nervous to try new spots because they often disappoint. The food and coffee at Switchback was perfect. I got the avocado toast with no egg.

Switchbacks delivers a solid coffee experience. The Ethiopian espresso had bright, fruity notes upfront, finishing slightly pasty but still enjoyable and well-prepared. On the food side, I tried their OG bagel sandwich:very fresh, nicely seasoned. The avocado toast, which was delicious and thoughtfully made.

Service was good. We ordered an espresso and a latte with oat milk. The latte was delicious, bright with chocolate undertones. The espresso lacked crema but tasted okay. The bacon and leek quiche was AMAZING -- I would go back just for that!

★★★★☆ — Charlene, 2022-08

What a gorgeous place! Such a nice atmosphere! The espresso is fantastic, the employees are the absolute sweetest. We come drive 8 hours just for the Avocado toast which is to die for! The plants are such a VIBE!!
