    We needed a spot to do a little work and wait for our car to get fixed in down the street. This place isn't huge but definitely has a good amount of seating to get some work done. I also appreciate they have outlets to charge at certain tables. The coffee itself was pretty good, we both enjoyed our lattes. Their desserts looked really good but didn't give them a try. Next time!

    Very cute little coffee shop. They have an inside area that it's multilevel with multi tables. They also have an outdoor space. The seating is a mix of chairs and benches, which I like. They also had a swing at our table. I was not brave enough to try it, but it looked super fun. They have a very wide selection of teas. Which I appreciate.. The staff were friendly, but reserved. Typical of San Diego coffee shops. They have lots of cute little pastries, gelato, and some small eats. Street parking Definitely worth a visit.

    One of my favorite cafes in PB! The coffee is delicious and they serve it to you in mugs in you ask, which automatically ups the taste of any coffee. Great lattes! The food is also incredible. They have gelato and a range of really fun deserts. The workers are really awesome and go out of their way to make your experience worth it. Lastly, the aesthetic of the place is stunning. There's buyable art on the walls and a whole little patio area. There's also outlets so it's a great location to work from!

    Umph wow super disappointed at this location. I've been to one in utc and love loved it but the location at pb was bad. I ordered a Cortado and turkey toast... the Cortado taste was just ok and for 13 dollar turkey toast.... Look at the picture... doesn't even look worth a dollar. The place is super cute though. The service was ok debating should come back or not

    The interior is bright and airy, with stylish artwork adorning the walls.

    Just found my new favorite coffee spot! The espresso packs a perfect punch, and the service is impressively quick. The place is spotless, including the bathroom--I'm genuinely impressed. Love the chill music and watching the staff keep everything tidy. A fresh and clean haven!

    The place is super cute with lots of seating. There's indoor and outdoor and it has a lovely vibe to it. The place is very unassuming from the outside. I got the raspberry mocha iced latte and it was absolutely heaven. It was on the sweet side and I normally don't like drinks that are too sweet but this was so good. I also got the Nutella and banana crepe and it is huge. I could only eat half of it and brought the other half home. And they do not skimp on the banana or nutella. My friend has a vegetarian got the egg toast and she was very disappointed. The bread is dry. They don't even butter the bread. No sauce or anything. On the top of the egg is some arugula and then a little bit of a balsamic drizzle but she said it was very dry and bland. For about $14 she said she will never get that again. At least they butter the bread come on it's not that hard. It is street parking only on garnett. Since we're far enough away from the beach parking is not difficult. It's also free parking as there are no meters in this area. You should be able to find parking relatively easy. The service was just okay.

    Love this place. An amazing array of fresh pastries, either sweet or savory. A diverse menu otherwise with lots of great breakfast choices. The service was super friendly and knowledgeable. Sophie made me feel very welcome. The floor plan is bright and open, with a wonderful back patio. I also noticed that they have gelato which looked amazing. I plan to come back later for that.

    I ordered a raspberry mocha. Normally it comes with white mocha, but I asked for regular mocha. It was tasty, it wasn't too sweet which I loved. I just think the coffee flavor didn't shine through, it was more of an after taste. To be fair I did get a latte. They had these cute fruit shaped pastries! The employee taking my order seemed tired, which I assumed because it was near closing time. Although she seemed tired, that did not take anything away from her customer service. She was very patient with us deciding what to order. I didn't feel rushed or judged for anything. She even walked up to us to let us know that our drinks were ready. It's got a small selection of seating, but the place itself isn't too big. They had a big couch though. There is no parking, just street parking. {05/23/26-7:15PM}

    This was recommended to me by someone I know, and I'm so glad I got to try it out!! The cafe interior makes you feel like you've transported somewhere completely different once stepping inside because it's sooo different from the vibes of the actual area it is in. The drinks were super yummy, and I felt like they def know their coffee. I've never had gf donuts before but they were unique and interesting as well! Their desserts looked super cool, and I hope to try more soon! Seating: there's a good amount of seating both indoor and outdoor. I had no problem getting a spot Saturday morning. There's also a swing seat I was obsessed with... Parking: the street parking is hit or miss but there's a plaza across the street to park if u want as well Overall was a great place to enjoy the weather and chat with a silly drink!

    Mexican Mocha

    This Place is amazing! Recommend. Coffee is really good. Expreso, Mexican Mocha , vanilla late ! Fantastic . The service is super impressive good. Another impressive thing is watching the Barista.(Laura) Making 20 coffees in a row one after the other one in less than 10 mins. Multitasking all the time. I probably expend 1 hour having my coffee and watch her easy make 50+ coffees in that Hour. The vibes in the bar is really good and relaxing. Peace full. And great music. Definitely coming back. And to the owners of this place. U should give a raise to ur barista. Because she's really good at what she doing. 5

    Heard great things about this place and finally stopped by -- it didn't disappoint! There's plenty of indoor seating, which is perfect for relaxing or catching up with friends. Street parking is a bit limited, so plan ahead if you're driving. We ordered the iced caramel and vanilla lattes -- both were smooth and refreshing. Also tried the Velvet Knot (red velvet cheesecake mousse) and chocolate mousse pastries. Not only were they beautifully presented, but they tasted just as amazing as they looked. A lovely spot for coffee and dessert!

    Espresso is gooooood

    A truly professional place for espresso hook ups. They also got some tasty eats. I can see myself spending a nice long Christmas season morning here getting fat from all the treats. ;)

    I treated myself to one of these - so yummy!

    Chocolate Factory & Coffee Shop - A Sweet Little Find…read more Walking by on a hot day and needing a coffee, I stumbled upon this adorable spot -- a chocolate factory + coffee shop combo. They make all their chocolate in‑house, and it's 100% vegan, which is amazing. They offer truffles, "nibbles," chocolate‑covered nuts, and tons of different flavors. They even have little samples of each, which is such a nice touch. I went with the strawberry cream chocolate, and it was so tasty -- creamy, flavorful, and made with oat milk. Many of the chocolates you can sample are also available as truffle flavors, so it's fun to try a few before choosing. Sadly, I arrived about 30 minutes before closing, and the espresso machine had just been cleaned, so they couldn't make espresso‑based drinks. I opted for an iced tea instead. They offer matcha, coffee, tea, and chocolate drinks, so there's plenty to choose from. I'd definitely come back for sweet treats or gifts. The wrapping is adorable, the name is intentional and memorable, and I love the story behind the brand. A charming little spot worth revisiting.

    Omg. We walk in handicapped parking was great. Then the attitude. "I'm closing in 4 minutes or…read moredid she say 6 minutes. Ok someone is having a bad day. !!!! . If you're the owner or employee of this place then shut it down. So sad when u do this to potential customers and we are true chocolacholics. Management listen up. Your vibes that this employee gave us was just too terrible and very un -California attitude. Well the figs are ok. Not amazing.

I got the most delicious, freshest açai bowl and loved that I could choose my own five ingredients (or more!). The blueberries were SO fresh! I also really, really enjoyed the Nutella beignets and the chocolate muffin. Everything was absolutely delicious! As someone who has lived in PB and now lives in East County, I love discovering spots like this that have such a great atmosphere and such kind people. And bonding with the owner about remembering: every day is a great day to have a great day! Thank you so much for the delicious treats and the amazing vibes! Anytime I'm in PB I'll now make sure I give him a visit.

    Cafe Matinal is such a fun little coffee truck near Crown Point!…read more I had tried to come here once before but the line was crazy, so I gave up. This time I came early on a Sunday and it was SO worth it. I got the Turkish rose & pistachio latte, and it was exactly how I like my coffee - not overly sweet, with really subtle pistachio and rose flavors. They even add dried rose petals on top. The coffee itself is strong, which I actually loved because you can still taste the coffee through all the flavors. Definitely my cup of tea... I mean coffee hehe. We also got a bagel with cream cheese, which was simple, good, and filling, and a warmed-up pistachio croissant that was SO good. Perfect little stop to grab something before walking around Crown Point Park, which is super close. They have a table and a couple benches on the side if you want to sit too. Definitely coming back!
