Mad Dogs & Englishmen Coffee Bar

Known For

British-inflected warmth in a sun-bright vintage-accented room

Mad Dogs & Englishmen Coffee Bar leans into its local favorite identity with a bright and airy room and a vintage interior that feels more Notting Hill than Northern California. The name promises character, and the space delivers.

🕐Best time to visit: Morning service on a clear day before the village wakes up

SW Ocean and, Mission St #204, Carmel-By-The-Sea, CA 93921, USA

Our Take

Mad Dogs & Englishmen Coffee Bar has a name that sets a personality bar, and the vintage interior and bright space deliver enough character to make a solo morning coffee feel like a small adventure. It's worth a visit if you're nearby — a fun find that earns its score through charm and consistency rather than destination-level pull.
