Local Roots, Endless Inspiration Ashley and Travis, Yuma natives, met in sixth grade and have shared a lifelong love for adventure, epic meals and meaningful connections. Their careers began with both working in hospitality roles — mostly bartending at various locales along Main Street. Ashley's passion for coffee sparked as a young single mom, leading them to envision a coffee shop that would bring people together. From its start as a homebased cold brew delivery service, the business evolved into selling coffee from a trailer at the local farmers market to now an always buzzing 10,000-square-foot space with indoor and outdoor seating. The Cafecito Experience Stepping into Cafecito, visitors are encouraged to relax and connect. Whether you read a book on a corner couch or perform on the garden stage, the community seating and funky decor invite patrons to put down their phones, engage in conversation and savor the moment. "People tell us all the time how they put their phones down and talk to strangers when they visit Cafecito. They disconnect. Life slows down here," Ashley explains. This sense of community is at the heart of Cafecito, where the customer experience is paramount. The Heart of Cafecito Nestled in Historic Downtown Yuma, Cafecito isn't just a coffee shop — it's a testament to the resilience and spirit of its founders, Travis and Ashley Simms. With its eclectic vintage décor, lush outdoor seating area and community-focused atmosphere, this radiant retreat is a beacon of warmth and welcome in the desert landscape. 36 EXPERIENCE
