Service was friendly and quick. The cafe is cute and clean. I built my own toast. You choose the bread (wheat or sourdough), base (avocado, cream cheese, or peanut butter) and three toppings. I chose sourdough, avocado, cucumber, pickled red onions, and glaze balsamic vinegar. It also comes with an egg on top and a salad. I got my egg over hard. It was cooked perfectly. It was a good breakfast.

If you don't know by now, Maya's Cookies are the YUMMIEST and the BESTEST. I couldn't believe…read morethey're VEGAN! Say what...was my mouth playing tricks on me?! Okay so...the founder, Maya Madsen, is a Vegan herself which says it all. You can tell these cookies were baked with loving care and with good health in mind. For some time now, I've been hooked on Maya's soft-baked gourmet vegan cookies and definitely wanted to post this legit 5-stars review. Every time I enter this cuuute cookie shop to treat myself, it's brightness and vibrant pink color scheme elevates my mood...sooo cheerful inside. I blame it on the aroma of the cookies too (lol). The staff is always super welcoming and friendly while providing terrific service. And let me tell ya'll, her Black History Collection is the BOMB.COM. It's very creative...the backstory of the theme, the artist behind the design and naming the cookies according to the theme. I highly highly recommend Maya's Cookies to the Yelp Community and beyond :-)

I had this place bookmarked for quite some time and finally got the chance to stop by for dinner…read morethis past Friday! Tucked away in a remote location and surrounded by lovely open land, TERI Common Grounds feels like a hidden little escape. The grounds are beautifully maintained and honestly, I felt like I was in Big Bear or Idyllwild rather than San Marcos! They have both indoor and outdoor seating, and there was live music playing outside when we visited. The woman who took our order at the counter was also so pleasant and kind. Loved her! The pricing was very reasonable, and the Hawaiian bowl was really tasty with lots of flavor. I also tried the Orange Dream smoothie with protein, which was such a nice treat. I was especially impressed that it didn't have the odd texture or aftertaste that protein drinks often have. There was plenty of parking in the adjacent lots, which made visiting easy. I would definitely come back for the food and to enjoy some more live music. I also have my eye on some of the decadent looking sweets I saw in the display counter! Such a lovely spot, and definitely one I am happy I finally got around to trying!

The café was very busy because we were there to eat before a concert. They had a band playing in the café as well. There was plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors. The selection on the menu was very good. They serve coffee drinks in addition to smoothies, sodas, beer, and wine. There is something for everyone at Common Grounds Café. The service was great! At our table, we tried the following food: fish and chips, Caesar salad, grilled Italian Panini, chicken wings, and a common ground burger. No complaints! Everyone was satisfied and we left with full bellies.

There was an early Sunday morning and they had plenty of options in stock. I chose a jelly filled doughnut, and my hubby picked two cake, donuts, one vanilla, and one chocolate both with sprinkles. Well, we ate them so fast and they were so delicious that I failed to take a picture We will definitely be back and try other varieties. Pricing was very reasonable.

Horrible Experience!…read more I drove 45 minutes each way to try this place. Based on the reviews I've seen, a lot of people rave about the dulce de leche croffin, so I was excited to try it. I came into the bakery. It felt a bit dark and cold. Even though the chef was standing right there in the middle of the dining room, he did not look up to say hello or welcome a new customer. I ordered my food to go because I came specifically to try it and experience this place for myself. I asked if the cashier could hold my purchase at the register while I went to wash my hands in the bathroom. He said, "Sure," and that he would package it and hold it for me until I came back. I paid and went to the bathroom. I came back, stood by the register, and waited until the same person who had served me was done chatting with another employee. I waited and waited, and he didn't bother to look up or assist me, so I finally asked if I could have my pastry bag. He handed it to me as if I had bothered him. I left with my pastry and was excited to try it. I drove off, and when I finally tried the pastry, I could not figure out the flavor. I quickly realized that it was not what I had ordered at all. It was a dry, tasteless croffin with peanut butter, which I can't stand the smell or taste of, and luckily, in this case, I'm not allergic to it. I took another bite just to make sure that I wasn't imagining it. But no, it was indeed a dry pastry with peanut butter. Imagine my disappointment when I was already a 25-minute drive away from the bakery. I called them, and the person who answered was the same guy who had served me. I told him my name and said that I had just purchased a dulce de leche croffin to go and was trying it for the first time. I told him, "It does not taste like dulce de leche. It should taste like caramel. Why does it taste like something else?" He said, "Oh, we were out of dulce de leche, so we decided to make a different one, peanut butter." But keep in mind that the label said "dulce de leche croffin." The guy did not tell me anything else at the front. He did not say that they didn't have it anymore. He did not say, "Oh, I'm sorry, the label was wrong." He did not say anything. He just said, "Yes, I remember you. I remember what you ordered." That's it. Beyond disappointing. I will never go there again. Despite the fact that I cannot stand peanut butter, the pastry itself was also dry and tasteless. The design was cold and unwelcoming, the chef was unwelcoming, and the customer service was simply not customer service. If they change something, they should tell the customer. This is a liability. If I had been allergic to peanut butter and had an allergic reaction, this could have been a legal case!
