“Congrats on the new place, it,'s very comfortable and very chic... Always enjoy your great coffee, just one suggestion, bring more beef empanadas, they go too fast, by the time I get there they are gone most of the time... Congratulations again and keep the good work...“
“This is a cool little shop that is next to a butcher shop and an empanada place. The owners are a brother - sister duo that has taken their love and passion of brewing coffee and have turned it into a business. Even though they are a newer coffee shop, they have built a community that connects dog lovers and motorcycle enthusiasts. Midnight Animal Coffee is a chill shop that is all about bringing people together and centering them around coffee. You can tell that the team knows their craft with coffee and even though their menu isn't too big, the products they have are special and have a unique taste. I had an event there for a photography meet and there were a lot of nooks in this coffee shop that were so cool to take pics - like the motorcycle out in front and the cool bathroom inside. The shop is located in a strip mall and there is a parking lot with free parking, but since it is shared with other businesses around the area - the lot gets full pretty fast. You may have to park along the streets of North Park, but it's not too far of a walk. If you're looking for a place to chill, this is definitely a cool place to visit!“
“Ahh lovesong. This reminds me of LA. The coffee shop is so cute inside, I love all the decor and design, very open concept with lots of natural light and plants. Just a really nice place to be in and to take friends to. I really enjoy the creativity and presentation of the drinks. Most drinks come with a floral decor. The menu has a lot of variety for coffee drinks. I also like how there's lots of drinks with savory elements that you would not typically associate with coffee drinks (think rosemary, thyme, salt, habanero pepper) as well as other sweet ingredients (maple syrup, coconut flakes, fig, banana). For food they have a few items in their fridge, like yogurts or chia bowls. I Wish they offered more food options or pastry options. Their pastry display is pretty small. But I get that the specialty here is the coffee. The service has been good. The times I've gone the orders take a while but that's because there's a huge line/wait. But when we get our drinks they taste great.“
“Okay YUM! Have been eyeing this place for a while and finally decided to pop in- so glad I did! As a gluten free girlie this place was quite a pleasant surprise as almost their entire case of pastries is gluten free. And they were so yummy! I haven’t had a lemon meringue in years and wow was it delicious. Even my gluten-eating boyfriend was impressed. The espresso / coffee is also great quality and very smooth. Very cute interior decorations with natural lighting. Will be coming back :)“
“Will probably need to find a new place even though I love! There’s never any seats and even though i myself get some work done there occasionally, last time one small table had 4 laptops and it felt like it’s gotten a lot crazier. I’m so so glad to see the success but now with folks driving over from other areas, us folks who live next door can’t really enjoy.Perhaps they can expand into the old Twiggs spot! ??“
“Finally got to try this place out. My son is always dancing upstairs when this place is usually closed. Great coffee! I had the Salted Caramel Latte and he gave me an expresso since I told him I had a kickboxing match later. There's a wide selection if flavors to choose so it might be hard trying to pick what you want. Mark is such a great guy and the service was exceptional. I highly recommend grabbing a drink or snack if you pass by!“
“When work brings me to the San Diego Convention Center, one of my favorite perks is getting to swing by Achilles Coffee in the Gaslamp District. This spot has quickly become my go-to for breakfast and a much-needed caffeine fix to kickstart the day. In fact, I just stopped by today and got The Warrior Breakfast, which comes with fluffy scrambled eggs mixed with cheese, a stack of three mini pancakes drizzled with a syrup that's absolutely delicious, creamy smashed avocado, and a choice between bacon or cranberry sausage. The perfect fuel for a busy day I had ahead, complemented of course by a beautifully crafted latte. I'm already looking forward to my visit tomorrow to try their breakfast burrito. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area!“
“Ordered a “large” oat milk cappuccino for a coworker and was told they only have one size of a cappuccino, but they could make me a latte. This was the first good sign!We had a large order, and it got a little busy. Wound up waiting a bit for our pour overs. One of the pour overs stalled while the barista helped other patrons. It was dumped and started again. This was the second good sign!Every drink we ordered was enjoyed. My pour over was fantastic. Highly recommend Bird Rock for their dedication to crafting quality beverages.“
“Cute, trendy coffee shop in South Park. Street parking only but I didn’t have trouble finding a spot at 2pm on a Wednesday. There’s indoor seating, a long table at the window where you can choose to sit inside or out, and a handful of outdoor seating that seat 2-3.My friend and I told the barista that it was our visit here and he gave us a rundown of what to try. He was very friendly and patient!There’s a big menu on the wall by the register and a small menu for their seasonal flavors.I got the Marigold Mocha Latte with almond milk— loved the shaved pistachios on top. They stopped serving food at 2pm so unfortunately, I didn’t get to try the bagels that I see raving reviews about!My first time here but won’t be my last. I’d love to come back and try out other coffee flavors and their food!“
“Friendly people and fantastic coffee bundled up into an industrial-style cafe.Things you should know:I. PARKINGYou'll have to rely on good ol' street parking for this place. Can be difficult depending on the time of day.II. SERVICESociable and masters at their craft. Shout out to Eric for getting to know my name ~ it wasn't even needed for my order and just simply personalized the experience.On a side note, I noticed they also have merchandise here and a self-serve water station.III. QUALITYTheir cortado is pretty spot on ~ you should give it a try..!IV. CAPACITYFair amount of available indoor and outdoor seating for the late afternoon on a weekend.“
“Coffee was pretty good, but the service was really average. Almost no acknowledgement that your drinks are ready, in general didn’t seem like they wanted us there (maybe it was just early in the morning, but that’s the coffee business right?). Atmosphere was industrial / metallic / warehouse which is different for little Italy / downtown area.“
“Oh my gosh. This coffee shop is the best coffee shop I’ve ever been to. First off the vibes are immaculate. Good coffee, dogs, beer, and everything you can imagine. They even play planet earth on the TV which brings me serious nostalgia. The service was superb. The one barista, Maiya, treated me like a literal queen and made my coffee taste scrumptious. Would go back immediately.“
“The coffee here is so good. The first time I came here I got an iced white mocha, that was seriously the best white mocha I’ve ever had. Today I got the classic açaí bowl (my first time ever having acai!) and an iced pistachio honey latte I think. The açaí was really good, I loved how simple and yummy it was.I really like trying different flavors of coffee, especially lattes, so I was excited to try the pistachio honey. It was pretty interesting, I would definitely buy it again.I think any coffee you get from here is gonna be great, it just always has this particular flavor that is SO GOOD. Also every time I come here it’s usually before class so I have to get my food to go, but the baristas always provide quick and friendly service. The atmosphere is really cozy, with indoor and outdoor seating and pretty decorations. I wish I had time to sit in and eat here!!Overall, this is a pretty great coffee shop. In my opinion, probably the best place in San Diego. Although I have yet to try the sandwiches or omelettes. But I still highly recommend it!!“
“I came here because I saw they had coffee flights and I’ve been wanting to try one since I saw that idea awhile back!The atmosphere is so cute it’s small inside which I didn’t mind, the food was really good I ordered the El Chorizo and it reminded me of how my mom would make it and I enjoyed it very much. The love flight was really good! It wasn’t overly sweet at all which I enjoyed as well.“
“A great gem of a coffee shop in the Poway area! Love the ambiance on a rainy day. They have very unique latte creations which you'll definitely be paying for in the price but it's good. For a fast pick me up get the Vietnamese Coffee.“
“Good coffee and vibes. I wish they would put in more tables because it's always full of people working and there's tons of space for more seating. Myself and many people I know try to come here often and then leave because there's no open “
“I had a fantastic experience at this coffee place. The location couldn't have been better, and the atmosphere was truly enjoyable. However, due to its popularity, seating was consistently full, which might be something to consider during peak hours. Nonetheless, the quality of the coffee was commendable, and the staff members were exceptional, providing top-notch service throughout my visit.“
“By far my favorite coffee roaster in San Diego. Located right across from Petco Park. We've visited during off season so it was easy to drop in without any huge ball crowds. The star of the shop that I really enjoyed was the nitro cold brew. Incredibly smooth and great tasting. As soon as the brew was poured out of the tap, you can immediately tell it's gonna be a good day. By far one of the best nitro cold brews I've ever had. Staff was welcoming and service was quick. Skip Starbucks and support local. Cheers to a good brew.“
“I was worried the vanilla bean latte would be too sweet but it wasn’t. It has just a hint of sweetness. Came out at a temperature you could immediately start drinking which is slightly too cold for me. The macchiato came out about the same temperature. Everything came out super fast.“
“Great experience at Modern Times Flavordome. Tron poured us drinks and was super knowledgeable about the entire menu. I tried all the hazy IPAs in a flight which was pretty good. I then had a pint of orderville which is my favorite. We were able to bring in our pizza from across the street and eat it inside.“
“we ate a bagel and a sandwich which was very fulfilling and extremely delicious! what impressed us the most was their coffee, more specifically the mocha it was so rich and creamy we fell in love with it. The baristas were very kind as well. Definitely recommend :)“
“Great for little kids, there is an outdoor area pretty contained right outside with tables and places to climb. This is the main reason I frequently go here.I like the coffee, but the price is steep. Follow @sdcoffeetours for more. The Vietnamese iced coffee is my fav thing here. Everything else is good about it.Kid-friendliness: Love the outdoor area! Excellent for little kids. No changing table in bathroom, but there are lots of local places that might.“
“Westbean on Morena is by far the best of their locations. My go to is the salted caramel with oat. It has a creamy texture and is amazing iced and hot. When served hot the drink has thick velvety foam (even w/oat milk) so nice to sip on a cold day. The breakfast sandwich is so good too, try the chipotle mayo! Parking is never an issue and I have never waited in a line of more than a couple people. The inside is clean, modern and quiet. Great place to study.“
“Nice coffee from a nice brand: the only problem is that it's one of a few coffee locations in this nice mall, the line is LONG, and you will have to wait on a busy weekend/holiday for quite some time to get the great stuff in your hands. I almost walked away but there was no better option at the time and in the end ti is worth waiting for, took about 20+ minutes to get our goods. They very much need to increase the demand for capacity at peak times.“
“Excellent neighborhood coffee shop. Got a Brownie, Red Velvet cookie, Blueberry Muffin, and an Almond Pastry. The muffin had lots of blueberries. Everything was freshly made and very tasty. Nothing was over the top too sweet like at other coffee shops.Parking: Plenty of parking in the parking lot and street.Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible parking, entrance, and seating.“
“I have been here 30+ times. Fantastic local coffee spot for a number of reasons. Always prompt. Always delicious. Vastly superior to chain locations nearby. The coffee itself is balanced perfectly in taste/flavor. Rewards program is fantastic too. Staff is on point.“
“Came back from getting my smog check (passed). My friend recommended this spot and this is how I figured to celebrate. AMBIANCE: Parking: Street parking, it gets pretty busy. Seating: Inside seating and seating. Room for about 40 people. Good for groups or individual study. Vibes: Welcome to Logan Heights, it's a grit and grind area with plenty of culture. The spot itself is eclectic. They got a nice brewery area too! You have a nice study and social area for small private events. I dig the local art and the hip-hop/R&B music. FOOD: Buko Pandan Special (Recommend) For those not familiar with pandan, it's similar to vanilla. A lovely sweet milky mix of coconut and vanilla that complements the coffee pretty well. CUSTOMER SERVICE: Nikki was my barista and she was great! Friendly and knowledge about the company. TL; DR OVERALL: 4.5 Stars. I'm a fan! The prices are reasonable; there's a wide range of delicious selections and a pleasant ambiance. Logan Heights is lucky to have a social spot like this. Great place to study, get work done, for small groups or large. TIPS: * Great range from morning drinks, alcoholic beverages, and pastries.“
“Stumbled across this wonderful coffee shop while visiting old town San Diego. A gem of a place, wonderful service and the coffee was delicious, there were 6 people in my party and we all enjoyed our drinks. I highly recommended stopping by and having a delicious cup of coffee or espresso.“
