    Great spot for a quick bite and coffee. Met a colleague here before a day of training. This place stayed consistently busy and plenty of parking. Also, dog friendly as well. The staff was friendly and efficient. Our order was correctly made and delicious. There are limited spots to sit. Heads up, the restroom is in a separate place within the complex (not accessible bc so many people needed to use it).

    This is a great coffee shop to stop by for a quick bite! There is plenty of seating outside & on the roof of the shop. The server was kind enough to answer questions & give us yummy recommendations. * Park Blvd Smoothie - 7/10 (you can taste the freshness of the fruits & veggies in this smoothie. however, the flavor is very light & lacking the sweetness from the fruits inside. i feel like i only tasted the greens in the drink) * The Cove - 8/10 (the salmon was very fresh & had a yummy smoked flavor. the pickled onion & capers added a nice acidity to the salmon in addition to the lemon. the bagel itself had a nice crunch, but it was slightly over toasted. overall, a solid lox bagel) * Banker's Hill - 7.8/10 (the fig jam was very delicious & added a nice sweetness. the egg & bacon were cooked well & came out hot, but i would prefer if the spinach was cooked with the eggs. the pretzel bun was a bit hard for my liking, as i would've preferred a brioche bun instead. a yummy breakfast sandwich nonetheless)

    Stopped in for breakfast and was blown away by the Solano Beach Bagel sandwich, honestly the best bagel sanwich ever! It features ham, egg, havarti, avocado and aioli in a mouth-watering combo. Seriously, the sandwich was better then the over-priced Ethiopian drip coffee. The coffees take a while to come out and the flavor was a bit bitter rather than rich in my opinion. Clearly a popular spot with the locals. Free parking in the lot.

    Windnsea cold brew concoction
    Josh W.

    *tasty cold brew *fresh food *killer vibes Stopped in here after a long hike with three kiddos and it hit the spot! I'll be thinking about the windnsea cold brew concoction for a long time. My kids feasted on the açaí bowl and smoothie (which tasted extraordinarily fresh). The cafe is mostly outdoors - great for kids - and they loved the pond next to the shop. If you're looking for tasty baked goods, there is also a health food shop next door to add to the stop.

    Unsweetened matcha Latte with soy
    Dawn A.

    Matcha fan here. They have options for something more sweet with lavender, strawberry, taro, and other syrups. They have all the milks (yes soy too) and you can get it unsweetened. Little hit like set up in a plaza. There is parking and a few tables outside to sit down. There isn't much room to stand inside and no inside seating. Good experience. Will be back when I'm in town

    Such a quaint, cute coffee spot. They were friendly and welcoming. They didn't make us feel rushed as we decided what coffee to order. Their cold foam was thick and rich and delicious! The cold brew was really tasty and smooth. Definitely would be back.

    Cute small coffee shop. Has wifi, decent setting in front of the shop. There is a sign saying there are additional seating upstairs. On lot parking is limited, there are additional parking on the street before turning in. The Broadway smoothie size is generous. Has a very strong taste of peanut butter. But still refreshing. Coffee is normal.

    Drank it too quick to get a good shot of cold brew and cream on top

    Very good spot with a lot of parking and Tesla charger down below. Had some good unique flavors and the quality is great. Will come here again on San Diego trips to charge and get coffee

The cappuccino had beautiful coffee art with a swan. My matcha tasted good. And more than anything it was colorful. The views from the patio were beautiful and we had a great time!

The store itself is modern, sleek with lots of seating available. So, sit down and stay for a while or take one to go. They are passionate about what they do. So, get ready for a tasty treat. I got an iced decaf latte decaf and a drip coffee. My favorite was the iced decaf latte. From the first sip to the last drip. I savored every last sip of that delicious drink. It's creamy, dreamy, and delicious. With a bold perfect coffee flavor. Pure perfection! Also, I love taking home a cup of coffee for the next day. And, a pound of coffee to share. Trust me when I say that this coffee is incredible! You'll want that extra coffee. So, next time you see a Bird Rock. Stop by for a tasty treat! You won't regret it.

This would have been an average San Diego coffee shop experience for me, except for the fact that I absolutely LOVED the cherry bomb! It's a cherry mocha and essentially a perfect drink for me. Back in 2019, Starbucks had a seasonal cherry mocha for Valentine's Day that I was obsessed with. Apparently I was the only one, because they haven't brought it back since. Cherry mochas are hard to come by, and I haven't really encountered another one. This one was delicious! The espresso was bold, the milk perfectly creamy, and the overall taste not too sweet (unlike Starbucks'). Wow!! I can already tell this will be a drink I daydream about. Unfortunately it was $7.50, which will prevent me from indulging very regularly. The rest of the menu is pricey too, with avocado toasts nearly reaching $20. (I may be a millennial, but I can certainly understand the negative stereotype when I see coffee shop prices like these.) Besides pricing, the other downside of this place is the limited seating. There were only 4 small outdoor tables, so unless you're with just one other person and you arrive before 10am, I'd suggest grabbing your coffee to go and taking a walk. My friend and I sat down, since there were open tables when we arrived. She enjoyed her iced honey cinnamon latte. If you love a cherry mocha or are looking for coffee in the design district, definitely come through!

I enjoyed the coastal breeze. While you sip and enjoy a treat you can perhaps play tic tac toe and or other games on the front patio/ picket fenced in yard. Super cute place! The Lattes I go for are The Gardener (lavender, honey, vanilla) and The Farmer(vanilla and brown sugar). Made with organic espresso and love. We've even enjoyed visiting the bunnies for 22$ per person (plus tip if you'd like too) gives you about 20-30 minutes of interaction with the bunnies. You sign a waiver with the host and they'll give you instructions on the rules. You might even get to feed them too. I loved it so much!

Apparently this was a deeply offensive request, because I was immediately informed, "So really you just want a short latte," followed by a staff discussion about how people don't know how to order coffee. Then, while I was simply standing there waiting for the drink I had paid for, they started making comments about me waiting. Truly fascinating. I didn't realize there was also a correct and incorrect way to stand near a coffee counter. Eventually they wrote "cap" on my cup and called it out, so I grabbed it and said, "Thanks for my short latte." For a place serving coffee, they somehow managed to make ordering one feel like an oral exam I had failed. If you enjoy being lightly bullied by your barista over espresso terminology, this may be your spot. I personally will be getting my incorrectly named beverages elsewhere.

We each got to order a pot of tea, so we decided to order 5 different ones to try out more flavors together. The ones we picked were: -Jasmine orange oolong - Coconut milk green tea - Earl grey lavender - Vanilla cream -Strawberry rose champagne oolong tea My top two favorites were the jasmine orange oolong and the coconut milk green tea. The only flavor that none of us enjoyed was the strawberry rose champagne oolong tea, so when it came time for refills, we switched it to the rouge provence. For the food, there were four finger sandwiches: chicken breast, smoked salmon, cucumbers, and chopped spinach. We all liked the chicken breast one the most, and felt like the cucumbers and chopped spinach could have been combined into one sandwich for a more balanced flavor. For sweets, there was the seasonal scone, fruit tart, macaron, and donut. I loved the scone with the butter and fruit preserves, as well as the fruit tart. The service was polite, but a bit slow and we waited a while before our food arrived. There was only one person who was serving the entire afternoon tea area, so it's understandable that there's a longer wait.

I had higher expectations as it came highly recommended. Edit: Hi Alex, you replied to a review below mine about a Kyoto cold brew so I'm not sure where the confusion is. Perhaps my wording was incorrect but it was indeed labeled as Kyoto. Comparable pricing does not mean something can't still be overpriced. I find your reply incredibly dismissive.
