White sage iced latte
James V.

Outstanding. Hats off plus sincere thanks to Jess and her colleagues for taking care of us. Barra D'Cafe is a charming spot located in the cute/hipster/awesome Plaza Santo Tomás. There's bench style seating on the inside or abundant seating outside in the shared grounds. it was the late afternoon, so I expressed my desire for just one shot of espresso. Jess recommended a classic cappuccino or an iced latte. Given that it was a warm-wish day, I opted for the latter. You have your choice of non-dairy milks if you so desire. I went in on oat milk. Then with flavor here's where things get really interesting - they have a white sage option! Very unique, with distinct notes of smoke and an overall earthiness. Absolutely delicious and memorable. Service was beyond friendly and warm. Thank you again!

We stopped by Barre De Café as part of a self-guided food & drink tour on a cruise visit to Ensenada. A 30 minute walk from the port, you'll be rewarded with a charming café offering authentic mexican beverages (we opted for the Mexican hot chocolate - great tasting with a spicy edge), from friendly, and attentive staff. To find, keep an eye out for the murial on the outside of the building.

Un latte

If you happen to be in Ensenada trying out wine for the day I think a quick coffee stop at Barra D'Cafe is required. I come to Ensenada two or three times a year for events and I almost always end up stopping for a latte at Barra D'Cafe. This café has the traditional coffee, teas and espresso drinks. I almost always get a latte or a cappuccino. The pastries and baked goods are great as well. I recommend the chocolate chip cookies. This complex also features other businesses as well. There is a mezcal tasting room, a restaurant on the top floor and of course Santo Tomas is nearby. The bathrooms are toward the back of the building. If you're in Ensenada and want a caffeine charge I recommend you try Barra D'Cafe.

Cold brew!!!  BEST COFFEE I HAVE HAD!!!

BEST. COFFEE. EVER. Very tasty and such a great mural on the wall. Excellent staff, too!

Hot Chocolate during a brief stay in Ensenada

I advise you to step off the beaten path and head to Barra D' Cafe if you find yourself in Ensenada. Several blocks away from the ocean lies this small, nicely decorated coffee shop with knowledgeable coffee baristas. Points added for being open on Sunday morning, offering fast WiFi & excellent hot chocolate.

Maple latte
JT N.

Excellent coffee. We ordered a pour over Nayarit and a maple latte. Highly recommended. I ended up buying some coffee to take back to San Diego. They roast the coffee is small batches on site. The best part is you are supporting a small family run business that cares about high quality coffee.

Lots of hype on this place for coffee - believe it. It's the top quality stuff that anyone from anywhere in the world will appreciate (even coffee snobs from Australia).

This is my favorite coffee shop. I visit each time I come to Ensenada. Latte con maple y sal is still our favorite

Vanilla oat milk latte
Doris M.

I read online that this place was great. So I had to check it out for myself. It was pretty amazing. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The coffee was amazing. You can tell they care about the quality of every shot of expression being pulled. I will for sure visit again and recommend to all my friends.

Coffee being roasted.
Ryan W.

Cute little coffee slightly off the beaten path. A quick walk and you are there. High quality, small batch coffee that is roasted on site. The staff was friendly, spoke English and very detailed oriented. After we got our drinks we sat outside in the courtyard and enjoyed watching the world go bye. Try something different and check this place out.

Extra seating area. Love the modern art and decor!

I took a couple of trips before writing this review and all I can say is WOW…read more For starters, their espresso is solid and consistent. The ambiance is killer. The staff is very friendly and helpful. It's very rare for a shop to have all three. I ordered four different drinks and two food items throughout the visits and was delighted by all of them. A cortado, blueberry pie matcha, pistachio cold brew, and strawberry shortcake latte. The menu is well crafted and filled with options for everyone. I tried a beef empanada and a bacon breakfast burrito. The burrito was a little small for the cost but still delicious nonetheless. Studying or working here is very calming with the warm lighting and greenery. I will definitely be back!

EDIT: I wanted to update my review to note that the owner personally reached out, apologized, and…read moreasked thoughtful questions about what I felt was off with the drink. I really appreciate businesses that take customer feedback seriously rather than dismissing it. Their response was professional and shows they care about the customer experience. -- Paid 7.50 for an iced black sesame latte, tasted watered down and I didn't even finish it. Was excited to try it because it has so many good reviews, it's possible I got the wrong coffee and should've ordered something different. Cool store otherwise, but I wasn't impressed with the iced latte.

So many Filipino flavors I love at this coffee shop! My favorite is the bibinka latte, so…read moreauthentic with the ingredients used. The turon latte is an easy second favorite. Inside is cute and love the seating areas. They have pick up/mobile order, makes for convenient ordering! I always recommend this place and love when I see their coffee at other restaurants like Common Theory!

First of all, I want to say this has been one of my favorite coffee spots in san diego for years…read more The campfire mocha is amazing and worth every penny. Ive brought friends here in the past and have always gotten positive feedback afterwards. Recently though, it feels like it's lost a little of its charm. The menu needs updating because with all the crossed out items on the board, it looks a little low end and like they're out of things. But they also always seem to be out of multiple items when I come these days. There's no food options any more most of the time, but the display cases remain. And seating... it feels like they got rid of 1-2 tables and the tables that were outside. There never seems to be enough seating so it's both cramped while also empty looking now. They have these side benches to sit on, but no one ever uses them because they're not super comfortable or good to chat with anyone with. Also, the bathroom. It's usually open, but twice now Ive been in there where there's zero toilet paper or the paper towel dispenser is out, but someone has just put a roll on top to tear at your own will. I loved this place so I hate saying more negative than good. The drinks remain amazing, but for a spot that is so popular, it's losing some of its own charm.
