Got in line at 8:15 to order what I had hoped would be a quick and easy breakfast and coffee. Midway through the longer-than-expected wait, I realized the time and decided to change my mind from a breakfast burrito to an Açai bowl to go. I hoped this would speed up any waiting time so as not to be late to my 9am obligation. Unfortunately I feel I made a poor decision, as I ended up getting out the door finally, at 9:01. The Açai bowl was much smaller than I had expected and I still ended up paying $15 with the tip (no matter the service I understand the importance of tipping, having worked in the service industry many years, and 15% is default for me at minimum.) The quality of the food was fine and the americano was perfect (albeit first coming out decaf and not having ordered it that way), but I was left wishing I had gotten that breakfast burrito since I waited just as long, for what I would consider to be a snack sized Açai bowl. The staff was very friendly and upbeat, despite what seemed to be a vaguely overwhelming morning rush. I still would go back for that breakfast burrito but Ill know next time I might need a full hour.

I came here while on vacation in San Diego looking for an acai bowl. They have acai and pitaya bowls with a variety of toppings. I got the classic acai bowl which had granola, bananas, and strawberries for toppings. The granola was delicious and I couldnt even finish it all! The bowl normally comes with apple juice in the base and they let me substitute it for almond milk and seemed very open to customization. The bowl was delicious and a very generous portion. The customer service was great, the 2 girls working were really nice and friendly. I forgot to specify which kind of milk I wanted in my latte and when I realized it was the wrong kind, they made me a new one right away! Definitely recommend this place for a fresh and healthy breakfast.

Some of the best coffee Ive had in all of Downtown San Diego. I really like this place because the environment is nice, plenty of room for me to work on my laptop, on Sundays I can have a mimosa with my breakfast and I can sit in the patio and enjoy the ocean breeze. I recommend this place to anyone that likes to have a really nice breakfast, best coffee in downtown and enjoys a mimosa from time to time.

We came here when the pancake house across the street was too busy for our taste. Not only were the breakfast sandwiches delicious and filling, but the service was some of the most excellent I have ever received. Extremely friendly, sweet staff who were very accommodating and happy to help us. All of the staff were excellent! What a wonderful breakfast experience.

We were walking around downtown San Diego and wanted to have a great dessert. We remember this place from about a year ago and decided to give it a try again. This time I think the dessert was better than the last time. Service was excellent too. Many thanks to the young man that helped us with our order. We will be back

One lady in front of me. Ordered a mocha to-go off the menu at 11:50am (time stamp on my receipt). Received my mocha at 12:07p. Mocha was good but not for a 17min wait. The guy behind me ordered a sandwich that arrived before my mocha. Nice people here but service is incredibly slow.

Loveee this place! A little pricey, but it was great food and good smoothies too, and a great environment which i could stay and study in for a couple of hours. The inside is super quiet and packed but outside is great and there are outlets outside! And Husband is always a plus.

The sandwiches are incredible and the French apple tart is one of the best desserts Ive had in a long time. The whole grain artisan sandwich bread has no added sugar, but that in no way takes away from the quality of the bread. Would highly recommend.

Good coffee, good bagel, and a very friendly staff. However I wont be coming back, it took over 20 minutes for a bagel and there was a lot of confusion between staff and customers. Probably would benefit from more people on shift.

I had a great customer service experience here. Its the end of the night and the barista is just as willing to serve as in the am! Great space for small meet ups where you need to talk/hear

Oh my gosh! A big bagel for $1.29 and coffee for $2.50 exists in this city? Amazing. Great little coffee shop with excellent baked goods and even better service. This place is lovely.

Cavin McCall

Great location, friendly staff and an awesome assortment of baked goods, pastries, and healthy options. A tad on the pricier side for a cafe, but well worth the walk in the morning.

Spent most of the day here while in town for a conference. Excellent organic coffee, good sandwiches, good work environment, good music, good smells, etc. Nothing to complain of.

Damian Samolej

I have been working with coffee for over two years, and I try new shops weekly. This is by far the best coffee I have had. This is what Ive been searching for. Superb.

A little tight for as crowded and small as it is. Coffee and smoothies were great. As wee were the breakfast sandwiches. Cute friendly staff makes it a solid 5 star.

The service was great and the strawberry limeade was the perfect drink to satisfy my quench. I finished it in a couple minutes and immediately wanted another one.

Great service, friendly staff and a great atmosphere you cant go wrong with this place ... Try going after 12 when its not so packed for a better experience

Their latte is AMAZING, Wait time is high, And attention to details low. I didnt get egg in my sandwich. Just edited my review from 5 to 2

The coffee here is some of the best Ive ever had, with plenty of gluten free options, tea, indoor and outdoor seating and wonderful staff.

John Revis

Half hour wait for two bagels with cream cheese. Cashier also spoke poorly about the pancake house across the street - not a good look

Matt Hendricks

Astonishing chai and espresso - 100% worth stopping in for some refreshment. Friendly and knowledgeable staff as well, total win!

Robert Martinez

Great sunrise sandwich, the acai bowl was delicious, and the ciabatta bread was soft yet crunchy! Great atmosphere.
