Ascendo - Los Osos

Visiting from out of town for a wedding. Stumbled in here and ended up coming back three more times during my short visit. Great service, charming patrons, delicious pastries made in-house and the coffee is excellent. I highly recommend. You will only be disappointed if you arrive too late in the day and there are no more chocolate chip cookies!

Great drinks and snacks, bright clean shop, clean bathroom.Overall a very nice independent coffee shop!Food: 5/5

I made a quick stop passing by. Easy to find parking in the lot on a Monday- not sure what the weekends look like.I appreciate the house brewed chai and house made almond milk! Such a nice treat and peace of mind knowing these ingredients aren't just coming from a box!

So Ascendo coffee moved into the old location where Starbucks was located in Los Osos before it moved. Their coffee tastes great in their signature green coffee press. The good news is that there's never a line to get your caffeine fix, try this little coffee house in Los Osos you won't be disappointed. Oh! They have bakery goods too!

I used to really like it here. One staff member was nice and always remembered me, but one day I came in and he was very very rude as in What can I get you? No hello no thank you, which took me by surprise because I had been buying coffee from there for at least 2 years, I had developed an expectancy of friendly staff. Anyways i just thought he had a bad day, but I 've heard similar complaints from my friends and classmates. I also went in about two weeks ago to get a double shot and it took 10 minutes for me to get it, and there were only two other customers in the store, already with their drinks. I like how they support local artists, they keep the back area clean, and they use fair trade coffee and espresso. Other than that, I feel like the management is going downhill
