Scone from Cafe Iveta
Santa Cruz’s Café Iveta has announced a St. Patrick’s Day sale on many of its products – plus a free beverage offer — and is donating a portion of proceeds to the American Red Cross in the wake of Japan’s recent devastating earthquake and tsunami.
The details: Through March 18, 2011, save 20% on purchases of Iveta’s yummy vanilla, golden raisin, and currant scone mixes in addition to its clotted cream and handmade lemon or key lime curd. You can order online (free shipping if you spend $50) or go to the lovely café itself in Westside Santa Cruz. BONUS: if you go in person and buy any of the retail products that are on sale, you receive a free beverage!
20% of all purchases of St. Patrick sale items from last Saturday (March 12, 2011) through the end of the sale (March 18, 2011) will be donated to the American Red Cross for relief efforts in Japan.
Café Iveta opened in Summer 2010 and has great coffee and espresso drinks (made with Italy’s Lavazza), tea (Harney & Sons), and breakfast and lunch items including pastries, sandwiches (some vegetarian), soups, and salads. It also has a nice array of retail products, including the sale ones mentioned above. You can read more about Café Iveta and its local owners, the Bilanko Family, in this article. A couple changes since the article was published, in addition to a new phone #: the café is now closed on Sundays, and the hours from Mon-Sat are now 7am-4pm instead of 8am-4pm (customers requested an earlier opening time, and their voices were heard).
Location: 2125 Delaware Ave Suite F, Santa Cruz 95060, (831) 713-0320
