Best Pit Stop When Leaving or Returning to Monterey County

The Power Plant Coffee

7990 Highway 1, Moss Landing

(831) 453-0022

You’re on your way to Santa Cruz or points north on Highway 1 and it’s time for another cup of joe or a hearty snack. Or maybe you’re headed back to Monterey County and need a little pick-me-up for the rest of the ride home. The Power Plant is just the right pit stop to refuel. In addition to an impressive coffee menu, there’s “Not Coffee” on the menu including matcha, chai latte, hot cocoa and a steamer, plus smoothies and tea and an all-day breakfast sandwich and toast menu. Attached to The Power Plant, The Landing opened in July offering beer and wine and a rotation of gourmet food trucks every weekend. Live music adds to the ambience.
