Super inventive drinks and a very cute cyber/motorbike aesthetic. I thought the service was excellent and that the barista was very friendly. The latte I got was tres leches and it was really subtle and not too sweet. read more

Swung by here for a coffee fix as it was nearby our lunch spot. It's got a clean modern interior with a motorcycle propped up nearby which is pretty cool. Ended up ordering a lavender vanilla and a tres leches latte. Both lattes had a prominent espresso taste and were not overly sweet which was nice. The tres leches was the sweeter of the two drinks but was not overbearing at all. Both drinks were priced lower than what you might normally see nowadays (6.50) and were quite tasty. Definitely worth a visit if you need some coffee! read more

I was looking for a coffee shop in this neighborhood and was happy to come across this place. It's located in a small shopping plaza with a limited-time parking lot, which is really convenient since parking around here can be a bit of a challenge. I stopped by around 10:30 on a weekday, and it wasn't too busy. They have a few small indoor tables along with some high-top seating, making it a great spot to study or get some work done. It ended up being a really productive place for me.The barista was very friendly, and I ordered a latte to enjoy there. It was delicious, although I was a little disappointed that they don't offer "for here" cups. read more

Midnight Animal Coffee - Tres leches latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Diego, California

NEW LOCAL COFFEE SHOP IN NORTH PARK! Do not miss this one! The coffee is smooth and the tres leches latte has a subtle flavor that isn't too sweet or overpowering. Extremely tasty and not overpriced like some of the nearby coffee shops. I paid $7 for a regular tres leches latte with oat milk and an added shot (4 shots total -- pro tip: it's the same price to add 1 and 2 shots so why not go big?) The barista was really chill and friendly and we got our drinks super fast! Small shop but they were playing good music and have some pretty rad merch. Would definitely check this place out! read more

Got the M.A. (Midnight Animal) Tonic with ginger syrup and it was delicious! You can taste the espresso even with the syrup. And it wasn't acidic! Staff was friendly and helpful. Decent amount of seating. Parking lot is small. Would come back for the M.A. Tonic with a different syrup. read more

Midnight Animal Coffee has been on my list for a while now and I finally got the chance to come try them out! Sadly they didn't have the non dairy cold foam that you can top on different drinks. And they came out with new seasonal flavors. That I personally like, but I know they weren't for my family. The space was good! You could fit probably +16 people in this space. Near the end of the espresso bar against the newspaper wall, there's a table for 2! Even in-front there was seating. The parking lot is shared, but the time we went there was lots of parking. As well as street parking. The worker was really kind and chill! The prices did go slightly up as mentioned on their Instagram post. To compare flavors to 7 Seas Iced Brown Sugar Rosemary Latte, I happily ordered Midnight Animal's seasonal special: Iced Rosemary Latte. It's a house made syrup of organic brown sugar and rosemary. This flavor is perfect for spring! I loved that there was more of a Rosemary oomph! The coffee was strong and had the perfect milk ratio. My brother had the ~$6.50 Iced Lavender Vanilla with Oat Milk. He enjoyed it and as a lavender lover it had a unique taste to it. This was a different kind of lavender that I'm used to. Overall, I had an enjoyable time here and I love their theme of motorcycles and coffee. Too bad it's a small lot because having a cars n coffee here would be so cool! They also have coffee beans, honey, tea, T Shirts, & long sleeves. A nice spot to stop for Coffee. read more

I was in the area and stopped by to try a coffee. I ordered the pumpkin spice because I didn't see many other options on the menu, flavor wise. It was a very simple menu, and I like to try new flavors. It was pretty tasty but not my favorite. It's a very aesthetic place, the owners did a good job with the decor. read more

Walked in on a quiet afternoon. Luckily there was a parking spot open, which is a win in that smaller lot. The man working was very friendly and open to questions. They have housemade syrups, which is always a bonus in my book. Makes flavored drinks so much better than Torani or something like that. And they have unique flavors too like tres leches and cafe de olla in addition to more traditional ones. I ordered a latte with the cafe de olla. It was really good. The syrup added the perfect amount of flavor without being too sweet or drowning the taste of the espresso. They don't charge exta for alternative milks anymore, which is much appreciated! I will definitely return. It's not super close to me, but when in North Park, it's definitely worth a visit. Love the theme as well! read more

Match Latte with the sugar and spice was amazing! This matcha tasted like the milk from Cinnamon Toast Crunch and was served at the correct temperature. The barista was so kind and made me feel so valued. I definitely recommend you come visit for the coffee and Matcha. 5 stars read more

Really great coffee with a really cool space and chill vibes. The place itself is not huge and it's located in a smaller strip mall in the Northpark area. The person helping us was really friendly. Oh, there's also really cool Ducati sitting in the store lol. The strip mall is small so parking could be be a little challenging. But I was able to find parking about two blocks away, which was great since I was visiting a few spots in the area. It truly is a walkable area so finding parking this particular space is not a huge deal. read more

Was excited to visit this location. The name sounded enticing. The location seemed ideal. But the place and the coffee fell a little flat. Everything just was mediocre here unfortunately. Place could seat maybe 8 people inside and about 6ish people outside. It's a small place that is motorcycle themed. Theres a motorcycle inside. There are newspaper clippings of it inside on the wall near the merch and (maybe just on this day) the barista gave "bad boy" vibes. The menu is pretty straightforward. There are seasonals. Today they offered a matcha tres leche and a rosemary latte. They also offer cortado, americanos etc. they have regular drip as well and you can add different syrups to the coffee. I ordered the two seasons. The tres leche with oat milks cold and the rosemary hot with whole milk. The rosemary won. The matcha tasted more like matcha than tres leche and so the flavor profile wasn't really there. The rosemary sorta won by default. Both were okay. The barista was doing it all. He was chill. They also sell merchandise, oatmeal, and coffee ground. Parking was tough. It has a small lot. I had to find parking on the street. read more

It's a small cafe, but still has a couple of seats if you want to hang out and chat. It's not too crowded the two times I've been, and the seats are actually more comfortable than they look. I've had the tres leches cafe both iced and hot, and I like this latte quite a bit. I am more sensitive to caffeine than the average person, and I found this coffee to be quite strong. The barista was friendly to everyone and had great vibes. read more

Midnight Animal Coffee - cold brew with tres leches - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Diego, California

Coffee: Pretty good! Anything from a simple iced/hot coffee to non-standard lattes. Seats: A couple individual seats. Viable to chill inside, but feels more catered for to-go orders and solo travelers. Service: The barista was cool and expeditious with our order. Military discount offered. Parking: Tiny shared lot. Likely will be packed unless you get lucky, recommend street parking around the corner. Vibe: Fits right in to the North Park vibes. read more

Great little coffee shop. I went with a friend who ordered the tres leches matcha. I had the tres leches latte with oat milk. It was so good!! Not overly sweet and I could still taste the coffee which sometimes is a miss with lattes at other coffee places. I love the edgy decor and the service was good. I will definitely return and I highly recommend it. read more

To start with what I enjoyed -- the interior of the location was very nice, and I enjoyed the motorcycle theme they had going on. The cashier was friendly and attentive. However, I got the Matcha Sugar and Spice latte, and it was severely underwhelming. The ratio of matcha to milk was off, and I could hardly taste the matcha flavor. The sugar and spice flavoring was good, but it tasted like I was drinking straight milk, which was not what I intended. I decided on my rating because I would like to give benefit of the doubt that their coffee is much better than their matcha. But for the prices customers are paying, I hope they can improve their matcha recipe as well. read more

It is a cozy cafe with a simple menu and unique motorcycle-themed decoration. It's similar to Moto Cafe. I'ved had their iced tres leche latte and iced matcha latte and both were very rich in flavour without being overly sweet. There are few seatings and small tables inside. The server was very friendly, nice, and skilled with making drinks. There are many good coffee shop in North Park area but definitely try this place. read more

Glad i decided to try this spot again and the tres leches was on point. The barista suggested I add cinnamon and I loved the addition. read more

Midnight Animal Coffee is right near my sister's apartment (which she quickly became a regular at), so we swung by for a drink before heading out to the San Diego Zoo. The barista behind the counter even knew my sister plus her order when we walked in. She was super sweet to our 1 year old who is very much in her stranger-danger and shake-my-head-no era. My sister loves sugar and spice latter with extra syrup (she loves sweet drinks). I enjoyed the tres leche latte I ordered (not too sweet at all) and my partner ordered a cappuccino. We liked the drinks and enjoyed hanging out inside while we waited. We'd order coffee from here again! read more

Cute, open spaced coffee shop in a small business corner. Stopped in to try their seasonal flavors and ordered a matcha tres leches and Irish cream. The tres leches was a little hard to discern the flavor over the matcha, but it was still very good. The Irish cream was probably our favorite though. Would def stop on to see what other seasonal options come up over the year. read more

This place was a okay. Staff was friendly. Seemed like they have lots of regulars as many people came in and the barista already knew their order. They were busy! Parking - tiny tiny parking lot that was completely full. Really hard to get out of this lot as it's one way in and out. Very little street parking. You will definitely be walking a few blocks. They are pet friendly and even have treats for dogs. Tried: Strawberry Matcha - it was okay. Needed a bit more matcha, too milky. The strawberry was very faint. Pumpkin spice - a little too sweet but good flavor. The prices are on point! I would recommend this shop for coffee as their drinks are less than $6 each. The only reason I won't be back is due to parking. read more

Great local coffee shop. I appreciate Midnight Animal's attention to detail when it comes to their coffee. They use higher quality syrup, nicely foam their milk, roast their own beans, and answer any questions you may have about their drinks. I got the Tres Leches Latte half sweetened during my last visit and enjoyed it. There's usually only one person taking orders and making drinks, so be patient. read more

Midnight Animal Coffee has quickly become one of my favorite shops in San Diego. As soon as you walk in, the baristas greet you, and I appreciate that they often know my drink order before I even pay. This shows they genuinely care about their customers. The service is quick, friendly, and helpful. There is indoor seating to catch up with friends or study/work. I usually order the flat white or the iced Tres Leches (quad shot) when I'm craving something sweet. The prices are fair and standard for today's market. Parking can be challenging, but overall, I highly recommend this place! read more

COFFEE FOR CHAMPIONS (5 stars) - DRINK: yums - PRICE: afforable - SERVICE: excellent - AMBIANCE: modern Good coffee with "affordable" prices! Clever name for a coffee shop. This place is my kind of spot. It's a place for coffee lovers and motorcycle loves - that I be both!!! Quite exciting to see the passion of coffee and motorcycles in one small space. I am a two wheel enthusiast with an accident that nearly killed me and alot of injuries and scars to prove it. :: ORDER :: HOT VANILLA (DECAF) LATTE ($5.50) - I am team decaf! Their decaf beans are from Columbia (different region from their regular espresso beans). The decaf beans are NOT SWP but rather ethyl acetate (which i learned from the barista is best way of decaffing when using chemicals). At first I couldn't tell if it was a medium or dark roast but after chatting with the barista we both felt it was more medium. In their decaf beans, I personally couldn't find any fruity notes in the profile of the bean nor did I find a deep rich profile either and leaned to medium. Many decaf beans I've enjoyed sipping usually have a chocolatey nutty profile although I didn't taste any fruity or acidity or boldness in these beans, I was searching for that chocolatey nutty and found a round smooth light body taste which I very much enjoyed on every sip. And they use their own house made syrups - love a place that makes their own. HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIBISCUS BERRY ICED TEA ($5) - love me some berry ice tea. It's not sweetened but you can ask for it to be sweetened with simple syrup. Barista made this perfect, not too sweet but sweet enough where you can still taste the berry and a little tart. HIGHLY RECOMMEND :: SERVICE :: Excellent! There wasn't anyone when I came in. Super surprised by that, more people should be be here! The barista was well knowledge of their roasted beans - she knew exactly what my asks were. I appreciate baristas like that! There is a dog employee too! Haha so cute, she just people/customer watch. I also love that. My drink came out quickly and well executed with nice foam art. :: AMBIANCE :: Modern coffee shop. Areas to sit and sip but no tables to setup your laptop and office (I'm also ok with that) because sometimes customers like me just want to sit and sip but can't because tables are occupied by people working/studying for hours. This is not a place for that.. tables are small. Good place for sit and sip! I think I need to add this to my regular places of visit. The experience did not disappoint. Until the next sip... read more

When I'm looking to get coffee to-go in this area, Midnight Animal is always a possibility on my list! I've tried multiple latte flavors here, and the Lavender Vanilla (hot, with oat milk) is one of my favorites. Give this place a try! read more

This where the cool cats of North Park come to hang out. It's a very cool down to earth coffee shop. I had an iced matcha latte with whole milk and touch of honey. You can also go with vanilla syrup or no sweetener at all. The young lady who made the matcha latter was very nice and had a positive energy about her. She did a very good job with the matcha latte. I liked it because it offered that very good matcha flavor up front and smooth easy finish via the honey and milk. Nicely done. The place offers inside and outside seating, and dubs as a motorcycle aficionado spot. It's a very cool place. You can't miss the Ducati as you walk in. read more

Midnight animal is one of my top choices for local coffee shops. Service is friendly and quick, especially for the mornings I'm rushing to work. I love the tres leche iced coffee!

After months of wanting to stop by, I finally went here. Let me just say: the tres leches latte, half sweetened, iced? Incredible.

The barista was kind and the service was great even through a busy rush. Check out this nice coffee spot if you get the chance. read more

Friendly (which is rare for North Park) artisanal coffee shop tucked in by Wise Ox and the Empanada place. Note that there is NOT space to work/study at. (There are stools and tiny tables to sit at) My favorite thing so far would have to be the cold brew! I tasted notes that blew my mind! Iced latte was good too, flat white was a bit of a miss. I like how the prices are more reasonable compared to some other shops in the area. ($4 - $5 range) It's also very clean and minimal, with a cool futuristic motorbike aesthetic, but I wouldn't spend an exorbitant amount of time here. read more
