Came here over the weekend and really enjoyed it here! The drinks were good and not too sweet and it was a great place to sit down and relax. They had plenty of open seating and the service was pretty quick. I can't wait to try out more of their menu options, including their food! read more

Quick stop to get caffeinated at CASA DE OTAY in Chula Vista! We tried to visit the casa location, but couldn't find parking. So, we drove by the casita off of Optima/Metro Park, and easily found a parking spot and walked right up to the counter. This neighborhood location is so cute!! I was immediately envisioning myself living in the surrounding condos and would most definitely make this a weekly excursion with my dogs. The Brown Sugar Rosemary Matcha off of the fall menu was delightful!! I requested 25% sweetness and it was perfect. After a quick stir and a sip, the hint of rosemary was a pleasant surprise. It was different, subtle, aromatic, and beautifully balanced with the earthy matcha. My brother ordered the iced Vanila Latte and finished it before I could ask if I could try it! Love the casita location in the park. We enjoyed our drinks at the red bistro tables under the San Diego sun. It was perfect! read more

Mid coffee with a big side of attitude. The options Eastlake has for coffee are slim pickings. As an iced latte drinker, the drinks are just ok. Nothing to ride home about. My problem is with the stanky faces the male workers give. Thankfully I'm not alone as other reviewers have mentioned this too. Unnecessary attitude when WE are giving YOU money. That alone is enough for me to choose Paris baguette 30 seconds down. read more

Came for the first time on a weekday before noon to grab a coffee and food with my mom. The place is super spacious and it has the modern decor, but it was packed in there with people studying or hanging out. It was really loud and overstimulating when we tried to sit at the stools near the bar. We ordered a drip coffee, ice salted maple and a couple of chicken empanadas. They had already sold out of the burrito and beef empanada which I really wanted to order. Maybe next time. The coffee was great, not too sweet. Empanadas were standard nothing too special. We ended up sitting outside which was super nice and way quieter. I think this is a nice coffee shop for the neighborhood. Maybe there other days where it's more calm & we can enjoy the inside. Hopefully they can be stocked with their popular food items past noon. It would great to have during lunch. read more

I absolutely love the Casita located in the Millennia community. The little Casita is so easy and convenient to get to. I feel like the parking and accessibility is perfect. I love the coffee. The vanilla bourbon latte is chef's kiss! The service is always great. They sometimes have pastries at the Casita, but if you want more breakfast options, you can go over to the big Casa right down the block. The Casita is perfect. It also has that cool machine that they can put fancy decorations on your lattes, so give it a try! Locally owned, Black woman owned in our community, and they're making great coffee at a better price, so it's just a no-brainer to support this business. Great coffee, great flavor, great experience.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ read more

I have to say that their bourbon vanilla latte is pretty special. It has assertive flavor from the bourbon vanilla, which imparts sweet and smoky flavors to the latte. Great option in Chula Vista for a latte! read more

My husband and I came here on Friday morning while we walked our dog. This shop is quite hidden from the main street, as it is located within the neighborhood. If you are driving, I would recommend parking in the lot near Common Theory and Sura BBQ. There are photos in the reviews for both locations, and this location is outdoors in a shipping crate on Optima St. If you're looking for the location with indoor seating with more coffee shop vibes, you'll need to visit their location on Metro Ave. I ordered the Café de Olla which was described to me as a brown sugar latte. This latte was definitely on the sweet side so if you like sweet drinks, this one is for you. However, I definitely underestimated how sweet it would be. The coffee itself was good and I liked that there was a strong coffee flavor. Though I don't think this is something I would order again due to it being extremely sweet. I had to water my drink down with ice to dilute the sweetness. For my next visit, I plan to order a latte without any sweetener. My husband ordered the cold brew but unfortunately they were out. The barista recommended the iced americano which was a great alternative. Prices are on par with the current prices around San Diego. There's a ton of seating so you can sit down and enjoy your coffee. I also saw they had some pastries but I didn't get a chance to try them. Overall a great shop and I love that it's located in the neighborhood. read more

I came here because I had seen it on social media. I wanted to get drinks with designer on it. I wonder if you have to ask for that- I don't mind paying extra for it. It was a very busy and there was a line. I came and grabbed drinks to try. I got the bourbon vanilla and the banana matcha. I really enjoyed the banana matcha- lots of flavor and loved the banana flavor. Actually now that I remember for the coffee I got the salted maple but it honestly kind of just tasted like vanilla. It was really good tho. Cute aesthetic. Good spot but limited parking. I parked by a park and walked a block and there was lots of parking there so not bad. In the pics I see a lot of photos of a blue like trailer- it's an actual building not a trailer. My mom really enjoyed it and she's not a big fan of coffee from coffee shops she prefers to make her own. read more

I haven't ordered a coffee from a cafe in years because of my tree nut allergy, but I decided to change that today! I called ahead and the lady I spoke to reassured me their coffees would be safe for me to drink. When I arrived, the person I spoke to was not there, but the three people inside were kind and patient. They allowed me to read the ingredients of their oat milk, and were careful to not use the stirrer they use in all drinks in my coffee. I safely enjoyed a delicious iced vanilla latte with oat milk! read more

Casa De Otay - Iced vanilla latte with oat milk - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Chula Vista, California

The place is clean and big, contemporary design. I'm very particular with my coffee. I ordered large hot mocha with whole milk. It was served hot (. The chocolate in it was dark . The coffee was served with foamy design . In short, i'll definitely come back. My daughter ordered cinnamon roll and iced chocolate drink, she loves it. The staff are friendly and it was a fast service considering it was packed. My only issue is the parking. Very limited parking for a business area. But i will still come back cuz of the ambiance and the coffee itself. Support local non-comercialized coffee place. read more

This is the best coffee shop in Eastlake! This place is amazing! They just opened a new location with plenty of space and room. It has so many tables and chairs to sit and enjoy your coffee and food. It has inside seating and outside seating. They also sale merchandise! Beautiful flower bouquets. My fav drink so their vanilla bourbon iced lattee. It's delicious! Very unique flavor! Never had it before anywhere else. My another favorite drink is their matcha is very tasty and delicious. They also have hot food available. The avocado toast is to die for! And their casa de otay toast is even better. Customer service is amazing! Very friendly and polite employees! You have to try this place is a 10/10! Highly recommend it! read more

Theres plenty of seating, making it the perfect spot to work or catch up with friend. There's also seating outside. Their menu is simple, featuring a variety of unique drinks. They offer seasonal specials like the lavender matcha! Favorite new place! read more

I'm happy that there is a little specialty type of coffee place in the area because I would much rather support small and local. I love the concept of a cargo container in the middle of the neighborhood! I got an iced matcha latte with soy milk and vanilla, and my boyfriend got the iced latte with oat milk and a little bit of honey. We went twice and the drinks were consistent and pretty good. We've had better coffee and matcha elsewhere, but this place definitely has some quality to it. I would like to try their special drinks and pastries, as well! I understand that during the summer it is hot and there is no A/C (but I'm hoping they have a fan in there), but the workers that I have encountered have been pleasant. I definitely plan to keep visiting! read more

I had to shout out a new coffee shop on the east side of Chula Vista. Tucked away in the Millenia neighborhood in Otay Ranch is this cute coffee shop housed in a shipping container. They have a simple menu with coffees full of flavor and amazing art! Faves: Cafe De Olla - Sweet, creamy, and smooth. Pairs well with the vegan Empanada that I had. If you want spicy, try the Casa Latte, it has Cayenne pepper to give it some kick! Amazing area to walk around, and it's right next to the new Common Theory. read more

The coffee shop itself is great -- the coffee is always amazing and consistently good quality. I also really enjoy the empanadas and the other pastries they sell; they're fresh and very tasty. The staff is okay -- not overly friendly, but not terrible either. Overall, I mainly keep coming back for the coffee and the food. read more

Super happy there's something else other than Starbucks in the area. Discovered this on yelp and had to try it out. I can definitely see myself coming back :) It's tucked away in the back of Millenia in a part that's still developing. It's not in a building, its like a blue container shed in a park area in Millenia. Its by the Common Theory and soon to be Sura BBQ. The area itself is really clean and cute. Parking will either be really good or tough. But as the area continues to develop and become more busy and full, I can see it starting to become a challenge. They have a small strip of parking but its shared with Common Theory and the soon to be Sura BBQ so that little strip of parking will be a challenge. There's street parking and other parking nearby but like I said, as the area grows it will be more challenging to park. Service itself was great. I like when I go to places, that I'm greeted with a smile. Staff was also friendly and very patient. They did great at explaining things on the menu for me and I like that I saw them hustling and working hard. The matcha latte was pretty dang good. I like that it wasn't overwhelming. Also, when I'd get Matcha at Starbucks it would leave a weird aftertaste, this one doesn't. It's a good Matcha and I would much rather get it here and support a local business. The cafe de olla was pretty good too. It was just the right amount of sweetness and warmth and it hit the spot just right. I 100% say you should come here. I'm all for supporting local businesses and this one definitely deserves your support. A bonus, outdoor seating and dog friendly! So its a great place for coffee either with a friend or a pup! go check it out read more

Casa De Otay is really cute and simple. I came on a Sunday morning and hung out at the outdoor patio. The baristas were really nice and gave good customer service. The only downside is that the drinks are a bit pricey especially if you want a non-dairy alternative. I tried an iced matcha oat milk latte with lavender sweetener and an iced de olla oat milk latte. Both drinks were delicious and not too sweet. I would come back again! read more

This place is cute! Tiny cargo container in the middle of the suburbs. It's a vibe. It's perfect if you want to grab a coffee during your hot girl walk. Employees weren't super joyful, but the coffee is decent. I ordered a hot casa latte. It had honey and cinnamon. Probably wouldn't order it again. It had an earthy spice to it that wasn't for me. I'd like to try their iced coffee next time! read more

Quick service, great food options (the empanadas!!) and they didn't scoff when I asked for decaf like most coffee shops that look this cute.

This is my go to place when I want to treat myself to the best coffee ever. They have a wonderful selection of drinks as well as a very friendly staff. I wish they had a few more food offerings, but that is also not the hill I die on. Finally, East Chula has a coffee shop that is absolutely worth it! read more

Casa De Otay is exactly what we needed in this area. A local spot for great coffee and community. The drink menu was wonderfully created & the products used are top notch. But most Importantly the execution is perfected, thanks to the barista, Marcos. The cashier Helen is a gem and super personable! I love that they made the investment in the foam imprint machine (dont recall name) What a great way to stand out from the rest! It's fun, unique and good for every holiday & occasion. Kids love it too! This place is fun for the whole family & even caters to furry family members with their pup cups!! Cant wait to see the additional location coming soon!! read more

We stopped by this coffee shop to meet for a group event and I'm so glad I experienced a great new coffee shop! The last few places I have been to have either been out of stock of, or just don't carry, coconut milk so I was relieved to get a matcha exactly how I like it! The concha was also scrumptious! Maps may try and take you to the brick and mortar Casa De Otay that is still undergoing renovations so if you have trouble finding this shipping crate, it's in Metro Park by Common Theory and HotWorx. Casa De Otay also has detailed directions on its instagram! read more

Super cute shipping container coffee spot! Walk up and order then pick you your coffee and pastries. The menu had so many yummy looking flavors like salted caramel, cafe de olla, and vanilla bourbon. As well as seasonal flavors! Service was very friendly and our coffees came out quick, lots of seating around the coffee shop to sit and enjoy. I got the casa latte half sweet and it was perfect if you don't like your coffee very sweet! The cinnamon flavor is spicy and SO YUMMY! Can't wait to come back and try more flavors. read more

Very yummy coffee, I got a salted maple latte and it was delicious, the store was also very clean and has the cutest aesthetic , I definitely would like to come here again to try many more drinks and pastries read more

1 star rating since nothing less was a option. Tried this place since more than a couple friends recommended it. To start parking is horrible for this location. Then walked in so crowded so loud music was blasting. So much when I go up to order at the counter the guy couldn't hear me. The person who helped me seemed annoyed and not happy. He said yes too loud I suggested turning down music. Gave order then waited. Ordered a banana matcha. Was very pricey and small and had store bought dried banana chips on top. Didn't go and tasted old and stale. Drink and flavor of matcha wasn't good either. Won't be returning. It's all hype don't trust it or waste your money! read more

So I just went to their new location at 1665 Metro Ave in Otay Ranch, and the new coffee shop was so cute and spacious with plenty of seating. I had their Salted Maple Latte and it was so delicious, and they also added a cute little design to my latte. It was quite creative and nice surprise. The staff were very friendly and quick to get my drink out. Can't wait to go back to try another one of their lattes. The only downside is the parking situation. It's hard to find parking due to its location being at the Millenia Apartments/condos that's the only reason I gave it a 4-star, if there was a 4.5 I'd give it a 4.5 because of parking. read more

They do have a really nice outdoor seating area! read more

I wanted to give this place a chance since its really popular on social media. I ordered an Iced Banana Matcha. I love matcha and I can say this is the WORST matcha I've ever tried. I thought since its a small business they would make it fresh to order. But they do not. When i paid I went and sit down and saw the baristas taking a giant pitcher. The Banana has a STRONG artificial flavor and the after taste of the matcha combined with the banana its nasty. I also order two empanadas which were kinda pricey for 5 dllrs they ain't worth it. They lack of flavor and they were too small. The matcha is pricey as well for the quality i do not recommend it. I paid 8 dllrs and like i've said it the matcha was really disgusting. I had really high hopes for this place but i came to the conclusion is just over rated. I won't be coming back. The staff is not friendly, if you ask them something they seem like not wanting to help. The ambiance is cute, and bright. Parking for me was not an issue. I parked a block away and walked which was not a problem for me. Overall i do not recommend this coffee shop there are better coffee shops in chula vista with better quality matcha and better food. read more
