The concept and flavor of this coffee truck is amazing. We found it right outside the Santa Barbara Mission, like right when you needed a pick me up, bam! Your prayers are answered. (get it?!) No complaints for the lattes, I can definitely see myself picking this up while out at the garden across the way as well. Who doesn't like a coffee with a view of a pink mission?

Nice and spot to grab some coffee! Stumbled upon it by chance and was really happy to find it!

I never leave reviews on anything but I had to with this. I have tried to reach out multiple times to have this truck at a wedding venue, but I am constantly left on read. This is extremely unprofessional on the owners behalf as I always see the trucks parked with no customers.

I had a highly disappointing experience with this coffee truck. I reached out to them twice, expressing my interest in renting their truck, but both times, my direct messages were left on read. This level of unresponsiveness is extremely unprofessional and suggests they have no interest in engaging with their community. I would not recommend this company to anyone looking for a reliable and community-oriented business. Even if they respond and declined my business that would have been okay; however, they made me feel like they were above my business.

Very much enjoy this coffee truck.Enjoy their oat caps and avo toast. Service is good, friendly.Giving 4 stars because the burritos are not adjustable, pre-made only and the seving containers could be a little better. No bags or handles if you're walking which can be a balancing act. Have spilled my toast and cap more than once esp since I have my dogs with me.Maybe more food choices coming? Would like to see something unique, maybe dog biscuits too. Just saying, since they right on the beach.

Super fast, tasty, friendly & convenient I stop by regularly when I'm passing a , which is often Espresso drinks made well. Most can be had both hot and cold, and with our weather I appreciate the flexibility They now have $11 breakfast and lunch burritos that they heat and serve in about five minutes- super yum They even have dog treats for my dogs!

Spotted the truck at the I madonnari festival and loved the taste of their coffee (I got an oat milk latte). I found them again by the mission in the middle of the week and was told that they actually have 2 trucks! One that stays at the mission and one that moves around and can be spotted by the water front, etc. I also got the blueberry muffin which was also delicious! I'll be coming back, definitely recommend:)
CUTE coffee truck. Was able to enjoy their drinks while shopping the local street market by the pier. Loved the fact that they have a separate table to enhance your beverage. It eliminates the chaos of adding sugar or grabbing a cup sleeve while others are receiving their beverages as well. Recommend: cold brew!

We found The United States of Espresso while we were visiting the Santa Barbara old Mission. Where they were parking the truck. They accept credit only. We ordered Macchiato. I asked the barista if it is possible to have iced Macchiato Since the menu didn't say if they serve it hot or iced. She was very nice , friendly and cooperative. She told us that she can serve both. The service was very fast and the price was cheap compared to other places. Their Macchiato was perfect! Not sweet, light ice and rich taste, in addition to the cheap price.

So glad that we stopped and tried their Sunkissed Latte. An ingenious and super delicious blend of turmeric, vanilla, white pepper, and ginger. Milk froth was very silky and stood out as well.

Found this coffee truck while walking along the Sunday Beach Art walk! Very friendly gentleman who made our coffee and he has THE BEST espresso setup that we've seen anywhere in town. Please check him out the next time you're walking down at the beach. His perfect coffee gives your step the pep it needs.
