I got their dirty chai latte and it was the best. They provide milk alternatives for free and so I got it with oat milk. I love the spices combined with their tea and espresso.

This is one of those spots I keep coming back to every time I'm in the area--and for good reason…read more Seven Seas Roasting is consistently solid. The coffee is smooth, clean, and never misses, and what really keeps me stopping in is their coffee bean selection. I usually grab a bag to take home, and they always have a great variety to choose from. Bonus: when you buy a bag of beans, they hook you up with a free coffee--which is a nice touch and honestly keeps me coming back even more. They also have a really nice front patio with tables, perfect for sitting outside and enjoying your coffee. On top of that, they carry merch too--really cool hats, cups, shirts, and jackets that actually look good, not the typical throwaway stuff. It's not just a quick caffeine stop, it's a legit quality coffee shop with a dialed-in vibe and products that actually deliver. Service is always friendly, and everything runs smooth and easy.

To address the entitled review that gave Seven Seas a 2 Star, I find it super difficult to give…read morethis place anything but 5 Stars. The people behind the counter we eloquent and efficient along with being kind and patient. My wife was pretty indecisive and they worked with us till she finally knew what she wanted. The food was delicious, we got the Lox Bagel and the Dirty Avocado toast. I'll admit it's very difficult to mess those two meals up, they elevated both of them. The whole reason we went though was for coffee and we were FAR from disappointed. We got the Blood Orange Basil Latte and the Blackberry Vanilla Latte and both tasted perfect, each sip of the Blood Orange Basil had a nice scent of basil with the leaf in there. You really can't go wrong here, the tables outside gave you a nice area to sit relax and enjoy the ocean breeze. A+ 10/10 no notes, excepts for the positive ones above. Not saying anyone's review is wrong but the 2 Star review definitely was incorrect

I visited Kini Koffee for the first time while spending time in Del Mar. Kini Koffee is located on…read morethe rooftop of The Plaza. Parking is available on the street or there's a parking structure that you have to pay for. Kini Koffee has a small menu but has all the common coffee drinks and a seasonal menu. I ordered from the seasonal menu and loved my drink. It was a great combination of espresso flavor and peppermint. The other seasonal drinks sounded great. There were a few breakfast items available and a few pastries. We had the chocolate muffin and although it was very good, I don't think I would pay $7.70 for it again. The employee was very friendly. I enjoyed our visit and would recommend Kini Koffee!

I like supporting the little single-server coffee cart and cafe places because they are the little guys, but this felt less welcoming neighborhood coffee spot and more like I was bothering someone by ordering coffee.

Not only is the location beautiful but my latte was perfectly balanced, beautifully made, and honestly one of the best I've had in a long time. The pastries were fresh, and everything felt thoughtfully curated. The barista, Malena, was warm, attentive, and genuinely kind in a way that feels rare these days. She took the time to make sure my order was exactly right and made the whole interaction feel welcoming rather than rushed. You can tell she truly cares about making people's day better, not just making coffee. It's the kind of place that elevates your morning and sets the tone for the rest of the day. Whether you're staying at the hotel or are lucky enough to live nearby, Lyric is absolutely worth stopping into. I'll definitely be back next time I'm here. Highly recommend!

As far as the cafe goes, the drinks and pastries were good, I love croissants and this one hit the spot.

The day I went they had some new black metal benches that were sturdy and very pretty. Some days the workers will bring your drink out to you and other times they will leave it on the cart while calling out the drink you ordered. Overall, the workers are very kind! A great place to stop by in the morning or early afternoon.

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. All in all, I would definitely come back for another afternoon tea experience!

The pastries and menu offerings looked good too! We'll be back! Highly recommend! We ended up going again today (Sunday) which was much more crowded and more people streaming in by the minute. We still managed to get a table. This time I ordered the matcha and mint, which was also soothing and not overly sweet. We shared a scone which was baked fresh from scratch daily.

I really enjoyed the cinnamon roll made with croissant dough and to be honest, the pain eu chocolate wasn't the freshest I've had, but I still enjoyed it OK. I wouldn't order that again, but I would definitely get the cinnamon roll again. That was one of the best ones I've had. I loved that it was made from croissant dough, which made it lighter and more flaky than most cinnamon rolls. I have high standards for croissants as I've been to France many times. :) The view that I got to enjoy these watching while sitting outside, made it such a great experience. I balanced my sweets with a cold refreshing iced Americano, and I would like to come back to try the Nutella danish. The service was great. There was a sweet girl working that helped me and allowed me to take my time looking.
