Really nice little shop in historic Old Town. I loved the Cubanito and the Americano. It has a light, relaxed atmosphere and the staff is very efficient and friendly.

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.

Great coffee and pastries, love this place. You can skip the burrito stand out back, $6-7 for a so-so burrito the size of a taco. But stay inside and you’ll be happy.

Coffee was average at best. The customer service was disgraceful. I did not see the main door since it was on the side and very near another store. So, I accidentally entered through the wrong door and was immediately reprimanded by the guy at the counter. I ignored his remarks and continued to order. After receiving my coffee, I heard him say something about napkins but it was not very clear. I responded that yes I would like some napkins. He rudely said “I just said that napkins are in the back”. Learn how to treat your customers with basic respectEdit- What do I possibly gain from lying about my experience? Multiple people have mentioned the bad service and that this place is not welcoming. Good luck.

Wanted to find some coffee in old town that was good and quality and that’s exactly what I found. I came in and was greeted with smiles, and the owner and the barista who worked there were very sweet and ready to answer any of my questions. I got the honey latte and my sister got the latte and I can say that this is probably some of the best coffee. I’ve had San Diego. I used to be a barista and a specialty coffee shop and I have latte of coffee this good and probably a year. The espresso was smooth and not bitter at all, and the milk was steamed to perfection, and was perfectly sweet. I can’t wait to try again is definitely going to be my go to spot. I’m not sure why some of the reviews are saying that this has bad customer service, but it was outstanding and I’m not sure why some of the people have said so.I guess it’s an attitude problem with them, and not the baristas, because I did not experience that at all, and neither did the other people around. Everybody was kind of friendly and very attentive to my needs. I would recommend if you’re visiting old town or San Diego in general!

Rude as hell. Acted like they are the kings of San Diego but guess what. Coffee shops are a dime a dozen now and with their attitudes, won’t last and will be happy to see another place here in the future. Oh and almost forgot, the coffee wasn’t even worth the money.They replied and the rudeness started from the time we walked in and asked about a drink. Please read their reply as it is immature and completely unprofessional…
