Great place, nice quiet outdoor seating with a waterfall and wifi. They have a restroom and Kohl's is less than 1 minute around the way. If you want to try and compare to Starbucks in the Pavilions right next door, there is no comparison. CB&Tea has much richer flavors. Their coffee and teas are much higher quality and their pricing has not made any significant changes since The "Biden-Flation". You may notice at Starbucks what use to cost $3.50 is now $5.30. Why? Nothing has changed for them except gas prices which affects the cost but by $2.00. That is gauging. At CB&Tea there has been a $0.50 price change since Biden took office. CB&Tea has much better ice too. They always have one person taking orders while another is pumping out orders. If nobody is standing in line they, at a minimum have two, sometimes three people making drinks and filling food orders. Much better in my opinion. Keep in mind they have small, medium, large, and extra large. Not tall, grande, Vente or Trente. Also their fraps are called ice blended. But their chocolate tastes so much better than Starbucks. Staff here is friendly and leave their personal issues at the door before coming to work. Just an all around better place in that area. In my opinion. Obviously Starbucks has their die-hard fans. CB&TEA has an off menu tea called the Mojito alcohol free of course - it is so fresh and thirst quenching you can imagine sitting on a beach collecting 30% on your crypto while drinking a refreshing healthy Mojito. Side note, The Habit, Jersey Mike's and a Sushi bar are just across the parking lot. The sushi bar is probably the best quality in Simi. 02 Sushi, very nice and clean. Compliments maybe a desert drink at CB&Tea.
They specialize in ice cream sandwiches. You choose your cookie type and ice cream flavor. The cookies include sugar, oatmeal raisins and chocolate chips. They have several flavors of ice cream like vanilla, mint, chip chip, chocolate and so on. The sandwiches are huge and one sandwich is enough for two people unless you are really hungry.
Good people, nice service, absolutely would come here again, thanks for the drink :*
My partner and I are traveling to see family from Dallas! Always love to come to the Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf on my California visits!! Madison made our experience so wonderful. She was really helpful to us and made our long drive possible! ☕️?
This location is a homeless camp. Sad. Used to be a great spot
The customer service and vibe is always OK, or slightly below okay. Not sure if it's the number of guests, type of guests, or what - but I never want to stay for very long.
