Urth Caffé is a California-based restaurant operator known for its organic, heirloom coffee and accompanying light meals. It began in 1989 as a mail-order business selling non-toxic home products, and after meeting an organic Peruvian coffee farmer, the founders pursued a health-conscious coffee path and launched what they describe as the nation's first exclusively organic, heirloom coffee company. The first Urth Caffé opened in Manhattan Beach in 1991, followed by a West Hollywood location on Melrose Avenue in 1994, with subsequent openings in Beverly Hills (2002), Santa Monica (2004), Downtown Los Angeles (2008), and Pasadena (2012). Today the company operates a central kitchen and corporate offices, along with five cafes, supported by a sizable team.

Its position is within the restaurant and specialty coffee segment, serving customers who seek organic, heirloom coffee and related beverages alongside healthy light fare. The business emphasizes organic, heirloom coffee and a network of cafes across California, and in 2025 opened a location in Oceanside to extend its reach into the San Diego area.
