We love the customization of their caffeine level from 1,2,3. We picked level 2. Coffee is so smooth, and the amount of sugar is low which we like. Their coffee comes from Maui and Big Island. Although it was pretty much resemble from the Green world coffee in North Shore in Oahu Hawaii. Highly recommended! Employee is helpful and friendly. Few chairs and tables inside. Shared parking with other business.

I ordered a Spanish Latte which has condensed milk and milk foam in it. The coffee has the typical dark bitterness found in Vietnamese coffee. The bitterness is balanced out by the sweetness of the condensed milk. The oat milk adds a dimension of oat-y goodness on top of everything. Overall, an enjoyable and palatable drink.

There were a lot of seats available but they were all dirty unfortunately.

So I ordered the Golden…read moreSaffron Latte, asking him for his recs on the sweetness adjustment since I usually get 0% sugar in East Asian milk teas. He suggested getting 100% but said that I could try 75% and then see if I liked it. It was SO SAFFRONY and full of spice, with a bitter aftertaste, I really wish I liked it. It was so unique because the drink doesn't rely on sugar to give it taste, unlike so many drink places in SD. The flavor wasn't up my alley, so he replaced my drink with an iced Signature Karak Chai (which he'd given me a sample before). :) And before he left his shift, he even asked me if I wanted any adjustments to my chai! I appreciated that especially as a non-coffee drinker. 11/10 service. I also ordered the Ras Malai Milk Cake. Keep in mind I really don't like tres leches so I had really low expectations for the soaked cake lol. It was actually really good! The cream wasn't super sweet, and it was topped with sliced nuts. The soaked milk in the cake actually paired well with the cake. There's both outside and inside seating, a few outlets next to the booths, and plenty of parking in the plaza. I'll def be back!

This place is AWESOME! Visiting from out of town and found this hidden gem across from my work…read moremeeting. I tried the seasonal Basbousa latte and Bastirma & Cheese croissant. The Basbousa latte tastes like vacation in a cup with undertones of coconut cutting through the caffeine. I paired it with a Bastirma & Cheese croissant, which was the perfect savory to my sweet coffee. Bastirma is like prosciutto and the cheese was a bit of smoky flavor -- mix it into a flaky buttery croissant, and it's almost like you're in heaven.

Finjan is such a beautiful Turkish coffee spot and easily one of my favorites…read more I love their drinks, they are incredibly flavorful, high quality, and always presented so beautifully. I'm honestly obsessed with their ceramic plates and cups, they add so much to the whole experience. They serve great coffee, and you can also try traditionally made Turkish coffee here, which makes it feel even more special and authentic. Their baklava is top notch, and the food is just as good. My favorite is the fava bean toast.. so delicious and unique. Overall, such a lovely spot with amazing drinks, great food, and a really thoughtful presentation.

I ordered the Peachy Green (apple, peaches, banana, spinach). It was blended perfectly with crushed ice -- so smooth it took a moment to identify all the ingredients. We also tried the Chicken Pesto Panini, and it was honestly one of the best we've had. Fresh, flavorful, and the bread was warm and not overly thick. The chicken, mozzarella, pesto, and tomatoes were balanced perfectly. Israel provided excellent service and made everything with genuine care. We'll definitely be back.

That said, this is some of the best coffee in San Diego. It's worth the parking situation. I ordered an oat milk cortado and a whole milk latte. Both were delicious--balanced, flavorful, and showcasing serious attention to detail. My mom said the latte was one of the best she has ever had. The store itself has a cute and fun interior that's welcoming. They have tons of seating, including booths, high-tables, and even a big wrap lounge chair. The staff are really friendly and helpful people who smile, offer suggestions, and engage you authentically. Overall, highly recommend Jaunt to all coffee lovers (and even the casual dabblers).

Both were refreshing and very tasty. Highly recommend both. The service was fantastic. Everyone that worked there was kind and lovely but special shout out to John who excitedly explained all of the different beans (we wanted to take a bag home) and their specialty drink options. He was patient with all of our questions and very knowledgeable about where to steer us. It looked like they had empanadas but they also have cheesecake! We got a slice of the biscoff cheesecake and it was hella tasty. A lot of people were in here working which was nice. There are a lot of seating options and the AC was on which was ALSO very nice. They also have outdoor seating as well. It's in an unassuming industrial building but because of that parking is plentiful!

They have some seasonal pumpkin drinks right now, so I tried the pumpkin cold brew and my friend got the pumpkin matcha. We actually came mainly for the pumpkin bagel, but unfortunately it was already sold out when we got there around 9:30 AM. So if that's what you're coming for, I'd definitely recommend getting there early! I'll have to come back and try it next time. Overall, such a cute spot for a coffee run and definitely worth checking out if you're in the area.

Love this place…read more Got the pumpkin bagel with pumpkin cream cheese and it didn't disappoint. Alot of pumpkin flavor and the pumpkin cream cheese perfectly flavored and not overly sweet.

The mocha latte is always a good option I don't like mushrooms so I didn't like the mushroom empanada but the crust was flaky and delicious. Boy friend really liked it Service is always fast and friendly here. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Dogs are welcomed on the patio. (Some had them inside and was ok)
