    LUNA TARO LATTE Whiskey latte

    I got the taro latte and it was delicious. We got the brown sugar shaken espresso, whiskey latte, and sakura matcha and seriously everyone liked their drinks. I love how they have unique flavors. The service was good and friendly. Also the cafe is split between a flower shop as well. It has a nice ambiance inside with an industrial feel. It's a nice place to hang out with friends.

    Adore coffee house is the first place to convert me to matcha ever since I tried their banana matcha. Their matcha is delicious, balanced, and the banana flavoring was just right. There's also a flower shop inside so really you can't go wrong with enjoying some matcha or coffee while browsing for some flowers or plants

    Passed by this coffee house on my way to an appointment and it caught my eye that I had to go in, especially after the folks at my appointment raved about the space. It's an absolutely adorable floral boutique and cafe that feels like a mini getaway. (I got my order to go, but seems like such a perfect place to say in and savor your pastries/food and drink). The owner helped me out and she was so sweet and welcoming. There is a very generous menu with things I think many people could enjoy. I ordered the chocolate croissant (my guilty pleasure) and a oat milk caramel flat white. The croissant was divine, so much as that when I got home with it, my cat pounced (and she's very picky about her pastries haha). The flat white tasted more like a latte, with a too much milk and not enough espresso, so I think I'd get it again with an extra shot or just a note to reduce the milk. All in all though, a really great spot for a girls' brunch or coffee date!

    We decided to try out Adore Coffee House because it was within walking range from our hotel. The coffee shop looks new with less than 100 reviews on Yelp and most reviews are positive. First thing you notice when you step in to the shop is that they share the space with a floral company. Half the space is for the coffee shop and the other half is occupied by the floral shop. At around 10:30 am on a Monday there's around 4 people sitting around waiting for their order. The downside of this small coffee shop is that one person is in charge of everything. There was only 1 gentleman working behind the counter. He was the barista, cook and the cashier. Not ideal if you're in a rush. We ordered the fig & cheese toast, flat white and a iced match. The total came out to around $30 with tips. Service was a bit slow since it's one guy doing everything. It took around 15 minutes or so for our order. The flat white was perfect. The toast was a bit too sweet for my palette and the matcha had a little bit too much syrup. The shop seems like a great place to bring your laptop to work or study. It doesn't seem like they get a heavy amount of foot traffic which is probably why there's only 1 barista. But when there is a small rush there might be a little delay in service.

    I got the blue moon signature drink which consists of espresso, spirulina, regular milk, and vanilla cold foam. I got oat milk to replace the standard regular milk although the vanilla cold foam does still have dairy in it. The drink is definitely aesthetically pleasing with the blue spirulina swirls on the bottom. But the taste is more mild than how it looks- I couldn't taste too much of the vanilla cold foam and tasted hints of the spirulina and espresso. If you are looking for more mild-tasting latte with no crazy flavors, this is your drink. They have 2 high top tables with a couple of chairs and one bigger table off to the side to sit at as well as some outside seating. I was able to find parking pretty easily just across the street at metered parking. It is also a shared space with a florist shop so there are pretty flower bouquets to look at/shop for.

    DIDN'T ADORE THE PLACE (3 stars) My go to coffee shop was closed Christmas Eve. Another favorite coffee shop had relocated their shops in a further location from Cortez Hill - saw this place on the way home and said why not. Let me tell you why... not. :: ORDER :: BANANA LATTE ($7) - this item was on their Speciality Drink and I chose this particular one because I love banana flavor anything. Decaf, hot, whole milk. It was served in a generic with no branding of the cafe. First sip was strong of espresso flavor. It took a couple sips to begin to taste the banana flavor but the overall sip lacked sweetness and bitter - reminded me of a non ripe banana. After adding a half of sweetener, it was ok but still reminisce of bitter in the aftertaste. This is what I got for $7 (plus a dollar tip). No latte should be $7 and this drink has no justifiable reason to be that expensive to taste "just ok". :: SERVICE/AMBIANCE :: Service was average, barista was very nice. Ambiance was a little weird. It's in the corner in downtown and a very busy corner close to the exit of the 5 south bound. Inside is a lot smaller as the space is shared with a floral shop. Very limited tables and seating but not a comfy place to sit and work/study, didn't give off that vibe. As much as I wanted to adore the place, I didn't have an excitement reason to. Until the next review...

    Goat cheese fig toast

    Food: toast was delicious! Drink: friend and I got the Luna taro latte with coconut milk and it was pretty good something unique but I love taro so it was good! Service: lady was so kind did not meet owner but she was there. Ambiance: went on a cloudy day kinda dull inside. Definitely small but good study spot

    Sarku matcha

    The lady was register was so nice and helpful in deciding what drink to get. It was good, not too sweet but i wish the cold foam was a little thicker. Overall really good

    Whiskey Latte (non-alc) + Tiramisu in a can
    N D.

    Adore Coffeehouse in downtown San Diego is an absolute gem. My boss and I decided to stop by after hearing great things, and it completely lived up to the hype--actually, it exceeded it. This is hands-down the best coffee I've had in the U.S. It's smooth, flavorful, and doesn't have that burnt or stale taste you find at the big chains. You can immediately tell they take their coffee seriously here. My boss got the Sakura coffee and the banana cream/bread dessert in a can (yes, in a can--super unique and delicious). I went with the shaken espresso and the tiramisu dessert in a can, both of which were incredible. One of the employees--super friendly guy with blue hair--recommended I also try the Whiskey coffee (non-alcoholic), and wow... I would come back just for that. The depth of flavor was unreal. The space itself is beautifully curated, with a shared layout that includes a flower shop and pottery area. It's got a chill, creative vibe that makes it a great spot for a mid-day break or casual meeting. Major shoutout to the blue-haired barista--super knowledgeable and clearly passionate about what he does. Can't wait to come back for another one of his recommendations.

    Their strawberry croissant was so good! I thought it was going to be sweet but it wasn't everything came together perfectly. The bread was soft and delicious! And the coffee was so good I went the following day for round 2 ! Service was amazing. Staff was very friendly especially when it was my first time there. And inside there is a flower boutique Incase you want to get someone flowers on the way home. Highly recommend

    Can't get enough of their salmon toast and bagels! The flavor balance is perfect, the coffee is always spot on, and the woman who owns the place is the nicest!

    I had the Blue Spirulina Coffee. I stuck to what I saw on IG. It was very good! I definitely would recommend. The barista was polite and nice. The coffee was tasty and the shop itself was very cute. I loved the decorative bike on top of the refrigerator flowers. Parking is a little hard to find; I recommend going during the week as soon as it opens. It wasn't busy and there were two spots facing west and right in-front of the coffee shop.

    Breakfast croissant, prosciutto toast, sakura matcha, banana matcha
    Francesca C.

    My boyfriend and I were looking to pick up some coffee and a quick breakfast and stumbled upon this place. Appropriately named, Adore Coffee House is an adorable little coffee spot with specialty lattes and pastries + they also share the space with a floral shop! We tried the banana matcha and Sakura matcha lattes as well as the breakfast croissant and prosciutto toast. Lattes were both yummy and the food was surprisingly filling. Great if you're in downtown and need a quick pick-me-up!

I was originally pretty skeptical of the Smooth Operator... like matcha with mocha (chocolate) AND blackberry AND oat milk? No way that it works. But it did? And it was really good?? I got it half sweet with light ice. It had a solid base of matcha with a tangy blackberry burst and a rounded chocolate finish. The flavors are all individually so strong, idk how they got it to go well together. My friend LOVED the shop, esp the little tie bits and goodies that they sell on the way to the cashier. The disco balls and decor were such a hit.

Eating "here" out of a cold-salad plastic deli container (reheated), pre-made three days prior, was a bad first impression. Because no milk or water was added before reheating, the oats were thick, dense, and gluey. ​Order at the counter and hang out until your name is called. The service was spartan, order and pickup at the counter, though the cashier was pleasant. The shop is clean and they open the property next door for seating. ​ A buddy ordered the San Dieggo. He said it rocked. It looked good. See photos. A note on pricing (not included in the rating): ​Price the food, don't fee the customer! Seeing a 4% surcharge for basic operational costs, wages, benefits, overhead -- is unnecessary. Why use a percentage-based sliding scale instead of simply factoring overhead into menu prices? A business's operating costs belong in the food price, not in fine-print menu line items. Stop the pricing shenanigans and just display what things actually cost upfront.
