Our story

Born from a love of good coffee and slower evenings

How Sweet It Is started with a simple idea: a place where the coffee is as thoughtfully made as the cocktails, and where the view is part of the experience. Located right on Shoreline Drive, we've become a gathering spot for locals and visitors who want something real — no rush, no pretense, just great drinks and easy conversation.

Whether you're catching the sunrise with a latte in hand or watching the sky turn gold with a cocktail at sunset, this is your spot on the beach.
