2 sisters, 1 dream
We could not be more proud to be a women owned, Hispanic business in Santa Monica, CA.
The dream started a few years ago, when we decided that we wanted to make the world a better place, somehow and someday, and if we could do it all while serving the best Coffee and the best Tea in town, even BETTER!
So we decided to go for the dream, and open a Coffee Shop, but we had to find the perfect location.
In late 2018 we found it! The corner of 15th and Broadway in Santa Monica. The space used to be the leasing office, but we saw the potential, and so the adventure started, and we transformed the place into what now is Cafe de Mundo.
The journey to open was rough, took us a whole year, and countless of challenges. Finally, mid December 2019 we opened our doors to the public with our soft launch, and we celebrated our Grand Opening on February 22, 2020.
OUR INSPIRATION: Coffee shops, Love for Coffee, Cultures around the World
Coffee shops have a subtle yet powerful impact in their local communities. They are the place you go every day to start your day, meet with a friend to catch up, conduct business, have space and inspiration to write a book or to take a moment for yourself and read a book. Whatever the reason is, coffee shops are a beautiful place to feel at home away from home, which inspires and connects people.
On top of that coffee is delicious, and it has been cherished throughout the world by so many cultures, each giving it a special touch that makes it their own. At Cafe de Mundo, we honor that love for coffee from the many cultures around the world and throughout history by having fun with our drinks, and using only the best ingredients. When you have one of our coffee drinks, we want to give our customers the feeling of traveling to a new and fun adventure even for a few minutes while they enjoy their cup of coffee.
Through our crafted coffee drinks (traveled-inspired) we aim to invite our coffee-lover customers to a new way of experiencing coffee, and give them a chance to taste and fall in love with coffee all over again. The way to enjoy a cup of coffee varies from the method of brewing the coffee, to the type of roast, to the origin of the coffee and the soil the coffee grows in. Each element brings uniqueness to that delicious cup of coffee.
At Cafe de Mundo we want to celebrate Coffee every single day and share this celebration with our community!
Even though our main focus is Coffee, we LOVE tea as well. Tea has amazing healing properties, and it has a very rich history around the world. Every culture uses local herbs, roots, and flowers to make different teas that benefit their health, and they are part of their lifestyle.
