Very good coffee, very nice place and good service. Too bad they took out the porcelain tableware! That distinguished them from the average.

Just ordered Avocado toast, crispy no salt. Told the lady I can not have salt for medical reasons and I wanted pepper only, so I asked for a side of pepper. They gave me one and I poured it on only to find its a mix of salt and pepper so I had to throw it all out. On top of it the bread was not even toasted. Hard pass, Manzanita is far better.

I had yogurt bowl which is amazing and never tasted this kind of bowl ever. The people are amazing. Asked them where they get the yogurt and granola bar and they gave me full cup of granola for free. I will be stopping there next time when I go to sandiago every other week. My fav place. Finger crossed

It’s hard to give this place a bad rating because when the drinks come out on time and correct, they’re delicious however, since I frequent this location one thing I’ve picked up on is if they get busy it becomes exceedingly messy. Idk what’s going on at an operational level during coffee rushes but they need to clean it up. Today was probably the 5th or 6th time I’ve been where my online order wasn’t ready for pick up, I waited 20 minutes before heading over to the location & it still wasn’t ready. Needed to wait an additional 15 mins. Then once I got my order, it was incorrect. People do online orders for the convenience of not having to wait for their coffee, this location sucks at making that be the case. I won’t be coming here anymore, plenty of coffee places around here that can honor their ETA for an order being ready & correct. Not only that they don’t watch their drink. There have been various occasions where our drinks were stolen and they had to remake us new drinks which is just another case of waiting. When It comes down to is the product being on par with the experience. For the better buzz in Escondido, this is not happening.
Idk what is going on with this location lately but this used to be my go to matcha spot. The last couple of times l've been here they have made the worst drinks. I keep going back to give them the benefit of the doubt, thinking maybe they just got new staff and are training but I'm over it. My matcha tastes like straight milk i can always tell by the color when it's gonna be wrong and i kid you not the last 5 times I've been it's gotten messed up. One time I ordered a Carmel blended buzz and i watched the girl making it run out of the powder and instead of just grabbing a new powder she just gave me the drink and as you can assume it tastes like straight milk. The other day i got a Carmel blended BUZZ and i knew as soon as she handed it to me something was wrong, there was no Carmel in the cup which there always is and the drink was literally white! Idk if it's lack of training or if they just don't like to make those drinks and I'm literally a barista so i get that but like cmon now it's been messed up over and over again. So disappointing because i used to love this place :(It's so disappointing.

I had a rough morning and needed a pick me up, so I popped in earlier for a quick cup of coffee. I appreciated the menu, that was completely new to me. The milk choices are whole, soy or oat, with the sizes being 16oz or 20oz. I selected the sea salt caramel latte, 16oz. It was divine! I would so order this again, and I would also recommend it to a friend! I am curious about the rest of their menu, so I am likely to stop by again and check out their offerings. I had drive thru service, which was very prompt! I can't speak to the interior or cleanliness. But the drive thru service was very nice.

Went and got the iced vanilla caramel latte and a bacon ciabatta sandwich. My drink was good, lacking in ice so it was a little warm but the flavor was good at least. My "bacon" ciabatta sandwich was stale it hurt the roof of my mouth and half of it had absolutely zero bacon and minimal sauce. It was mostly stale bread that they toasted for a couple seconds. My boyfriend got the avocado toast and loved it but it was just on a piece of bread when I tried it and was cold, could be just my expectation of toast is different but I was just expecting something warm, the bread at least. There was no line of cars or anything in front of us so that's the only reason I'm a little dissatisfied. Overall meh, good place to stop if you're in a rush and on the go I guess.
