Montecito Coffee Company is a purpose-driven business that grew out of a little shop in Montecito. We kept our doors open against all odds to feed victims and first responders during the historic California Thomas Fire and Montecito Debris Flow.

In the days that followed, our shop became a gathering place for emergency personnel working throughout the disaster. We witnessed firsthand the extraordinary courage and humanity of the people who put themselves in harm’s way to protect our community.

That experience stayed with us and inspired Montecito Coffee Company. Today, we continue that commitment by giving back to the people and organizations that serve our community.

With Montecito Coffee Company,

Kindness is Simple.

Giving 1% back to those who serve our community.

When it comes to a delicious cup of coffee, roasting is the most important part of the process. Our roasting partner is internationally recognized as one of the top female roasters in the world, roasting 100% Arabica beans sourced from sustainable farms from all over the world.

We roast single-origin estate coffees, blends, and espressos in small batches to ensure peak flavor and the freshest quality with every sip.

Dedicated to the first responders who bravely defended our community throughout the Thomas Fire and Montecito 1/9 Debris Flow, the Montecito Coffee Company celebrates the steadfast vitality and spirit of Montecito.

Our logo tells our story. The flame represents the Thomas Fire. The heart surrounding it represents the recovery and resilience of our community. The lantern is drawn from the historic Montecito Fire Department and honors the first responders who brought leadership and light during our community’s darkest days.

Today, we are proud to carry that mission forward through our partnership with One805 and its support of Santa Barbara County’s first responders.
