    First couple of sips of a latte and you know whether it's good or bad.  This honey cinnamon latte is great!  Quiet, peaceful atmosphere.

    You can tell a lot by the first couple of sips of a latte. The honey cinnamon latte is great! Quiet and peaceful atmosphere. Very clean and updated.

    Definitely not. It's at a church. I will not be going there again. Pretty sure they're closed everyday of the week except Sunday.

    The hours are wrong. It's not open to the public. It's a church with a coffee place for members??

    Unique Mexican Flavors! They're DELICIOUS…read more A Must Try if you're looking for unique fun flavors that you won't find in traditional coffee shops. Coffee - They have a variety of traditional Mexican drink flavors such as Horcata, Mazapán, Tres leches and more!

Recently, I found myself in San Marcos and decided to give it another shot at this location and I'm so glad I did! I've been back a few times now, and every visit has been great. The shop is in a convenient shopping center with plenty of parking, which is always a plus. It's a small, cozy spot with a really cute setup. Each time I've gone, it's been the same person working, and he's always incredibly friendly and welcoming, which makes a big difference. I've tried a few different coffee drinks, and every single one has been delicious although the Mazapan Latte is my absolute favorite! Definitely a must try. The combination of great service and consistently amazing coffee is exactly why I keep coming back. Definitely worth checking out and making the drive since I'm in Carlsbad.

I really appreciated the professionalism, responsiveness, and effort to make things right. While my recent visits have been disappointing, their follow-up showed they genuinely care about their customers and feedback, and that deserves recognition. for the customer service at BobaPop. ORIGINAL POST: I'm noticing some changes over the last few weeks- different cups no longer BobaPop branded. I get the same service, I'm greeted by the same kindness. I can live with new cups/branding. A huge change to me is the boba. Boba texture and flavor is important to me. It's been very different... Not the same texture I've come to know and love. At first I thought it was just old boba that had been sitting all day but even when I come first thing, it's still the same. I don't like the new stuff.

Service is also amazing with the owner being very communicative and friendly. I come here often to study since the ambience is really nice and clean.

One note is that their syrups are pretty sweet, so I recommend trying 70/50% sweetness. Love this place

Both drinks come with an actual slice of tiramisu on top, which surprised me, l thought it would be more like a tiramisu flavored drink with hojicha or matcha mixed in. The tiramisu itself is really good, but personally I don't think it goes well with the drink. The texture of the cake while sipping the latte feels a little off. I also tried the nitro Vietnamese coffee. It was unusual because when you hear "Vietnamese coffee" you expect something strong, but this one was light and you can really taste the milk. I really enjoyed the bubble waffle series-especially the Oreo one. It's really good. The honey toast series was okay, nothing special. I got the honey toast with ice cream, and I remember honey toast being crispy but still easy to eat. This one wasn't crispy at all and the bread was tough. Overall, this place is reall good for matcha drinks.

Try their cortado, "youniverse" cold brew, or cappuccino. They also serve a bunch of single serve clever drip coffees, loose-leaf teas, and even kombucha! Whether you're a coffee lover or just interested in cool spaces, be sure to check out this shop while you're out and about in Vista! Update: Been back several times since my original review. Still love this place's vibe, aesthetic, and attention to quality. Every drink is really good, and they are serious about their coffee and brewing. I've bought a couple bags of beans from here and they were great as both hot espresso and cold brew. Come by and support Vista local!

First of all the cafe is clean and have items on the shelf which you can buy such as mosaics and bath salts. They had such a great assortment of delicious looking treats and since we visited in March, there were some special coffees for the month such as a Dubai chocolate mocha and pistachio cold brew. We only ordered the drip coffee. We ordered the trio of street tacos and traditional 2 egg breakfast I didn't look, but I'm going to assume they have their own garden and they make fresh ingredient because you can taste the good quality in the food. The salsa and cilantro...Yum. The service was great:-) I will return when staying in the area
