    ORDINARY PLEASURE  Mango Sticky rice flavored Matcha Latte with a Salted Coconut Foam
    Charel G.

    The mango sticky rice latte with salted coconut foam was by far the best I've had. It actually tastes like real mango sticky rice! The balance of flavors was spot on, and the matcha was perfectly blended with the milk for a smooth, not-too-sweet finish. The space is cute with an organic modern design and a soft color palette throughout their seating and cushions. Definitely planning to come back to try more from their menu!

    Morning Dew just became my new favorite spot for matcha! I ordered the Money Trees and absolutely loved it--the salted coconut cream on top was the perfect balance of rich and salty, and it paired so well with the banana profile running through the drink. Super refreshing, unique, and not overly sweet. Definitely a must-try if you're into creative matcha drinks. I'll be back to explore more of their menu!

    Morning Dew is a matcha cafe project by day that turns into a well-known bar at Jaguar Paw. They are located right in the heart of the Barrio Logan area. They do not have a parking lot here, but there is a lot of street parking all around the area. Inside, they have a nice and modern setup with about 5-6 tables for seating. For their menu, they have a unique concoction of different latte and matcha drinks to choose from. I ended up getting the Ordinary Pleasure which comes with pandan sticky rice, mango, ceremonial matcha, and coconut cold foam. Overall, I really liked the laid back vibes of the spot. All of the staff here are friendly and welcoming. I would definitely recommend checking them out if you are ever in the area.

    I love this place! The concept is p cool it's normally a bar called Jaguar Paw in the evening but during the day it's a cafe called Morning Dew! So if you're looking for Morning Dew look for the Jaguar Paw sign since they're the same place! Their menu has some unique options the "ordinary pleasure" is their take on a mango sticky rice matcha w a salted coconut foam. Their "money trees" is actually the first pandan, coconut, banana matcha I've ever had or seen offered at a cafe! It also comes w the salted coconut foam. The ordinary pleasure was a nice natural tasting mango it didn't taste artificial at all and I was surprised at how strong the mango flavor was even though there wasn't a huge amount of mango puree at the bottom! The money trees definitely leaned more on the pandan side with a strong pandan flavor with some slight hints of coconut and banana! The ordinary pleasure always definitely more sweet than the money trees as well but both were good and I would get them again! I'm also curious to try their coffee especially their Jasmine latte or guayaba latte since I haven't seen those commonly offered at cafes! They were pretty busy when we went on a Sunday but they were also hosting a pop up with a Korean cream puff business "Mon Chourie" so that probably contributed to how busy they were! We still got our drinks pretty fast though despite how busy they were and it did calm down by the time we left. I saw on their Instagram that they do little pop ups w businesses periodically and would definitely be interested to come back for those since Mon Chourie was SO GOOD, they literally filled the cream puffs in front of you after you ordered them and I'm still thinking about their choux au craquelin. Going when they had Mon Chourie there w their delicious pastries definitely added to my first experience with trying Morning Dew and I would want to come back again to try more drinks from them!

    As much as I'd like to keep this place a secret it would be doing them a disservice. This is absolutely without a doubt in my mind my favorite matcha spot in San Diego even possibly all of SoCal and at that maybe even all of California. I've been all over the place, tried many different spots but the consistency in flavor, and service is unmatched here. I can proudly say I've tried everything on the menu and loved just about everything except for warm bevs (not their fault I just don't like warm bevs lol). They have cool theming inside however make sure you check their hours because they share the space with a bar in the afternoon/evening. I make many matcha's at home but their quality is so good, that I go to them rather than drink my own sometimes because I simply love it.

    Cute interior

    I saw an IG reel about Morning Dew and made time on a weekend to go, as it's a bit out of the way for me. The road to Money Trees was somewhat chaotic for me, but I am glad I got to try this unique drink. Ultimately, I would rate this a 3.5ish for me, but I do tend to round up for small businesses. My tip for anyone reading this review is that the hours are not exact on any site I checked. Since Morning Dew is run by one person, I definitely understand that it's more difficult to start precisely on time. I would advise either clearer communication of daily hours on their IG, or to simply come by later to give them some cushion for set-up. I ended up waiting an hour from the listed opening time for the owner to finish setting up. Thankfully, there were plenty of things to do in the surrounding area, and I took a nice stroll, popping in and out of shops in the area. Morning Dew is located in Jaguar Paw, which is a bar at night. The space is super cute and the menu has many unique drinks that tempted me, but I ended up going with Money Trees, which has pandan and banana. I have never had a banana-flavored drink before but I saw a lot of hype around these types of drinks, so I wanted to give them a try myself. It was pretty pricy but as a sweet-treat advocate, I wanted to try something new. Upon first sip, I was hit with strong pandan and banana flavors. There was a slightly astringent aftertaste from the banana, so I do feel like the flavor is from real fruit and not artificial syrup. Unfortunately, it was not my favorite drink as I think I prefer more matcha-forward options. It was also a bit thinner than I prefer, so it felt like a banana juice. While I am intrigued by some of the other drinks on offer, I do not think Morning Dew will become part of my regular rotation. Between the prices, location, and hours, this is definitely a special occasion, friends-in-town type of spot for me.

    Strawberry Swing matcha
    Joniece H.

    Strawberry swing matcha. Whisked to perfection! A wonderful cafe in San Deigo. The drinks automatically come with oatmilk which is my preferred choice anyway, the service was quick and friendly and the matcha was delicious, not too sweet from the strawberry either. Will be back

    Morning Dew Libations Coffee in Barrio Logan was such a lovely stop. Their seasonal Noche Buena drink was outstanding. The aroma of the nutmeg, the clove syrup, and the mix of spices came together beautifully with the espresso. The shop was decorated for the holidays, which added to the cozy vibe, and the staff was friendly, helpful, and genuinely welcoming. I highly recommend checking it out.

    Jasmine Latte and Money Trees
    Chloe D.

    I ordered the Jasmine Latte and it ended up being one of my favorite lattes in San Diego! They use jasmine blossom infused honey and it ended up tasting like a mix between coffee and jasmine milk tea, while being the perfect balance of sweetness and strength. Super delicious and almost refreshing! My boyfriend ordered the Money Trees, which was also delicious. The matcha was pretty decent quality. The banana and pandan flavors were both pretty subtle but in a good way and the salted coconut foam was delicious! Highly recommend this place.

    Money tree latte
    Nina S.

    My friend recommended their Money Tree matcha latte. It did not disappoint! There's pandan and banana in it and I actually liked it! It's not too bitter or too sweet. They use oat milk which is great for those who are lactose intolerant (like my husband lol). It is a bit pricey though $8 but comparable (unfortunately) to other matcha/coffee places

    Menu 9/2025
    Amelea J.

    A hidden gem that everyone should try. I think ordinary pleasures is the best thing on the menu, but this is not to downplay the other things on the menu. The decor is dope - definitely a vibe !! I would come back again and recommend to others. Service is great - just gotta be patient.

    Seating area with "ordinary pleasure" matcha
    Casey P.

    Morning Dew at Jaguar Paw is such a vibe! The whole place is super cute and gives off a fun, cozy energy. Their matcha flavors are really creative -- I had Ordinary Pleasure, and it totally reminded me of mango sticky rice (in the best way possible). Pro tip: give it a good mix before sipping. Absolutely delicious. Can't wait to come back and try more!

    The ordinary
    Nick S.

    Not a super traditional matcha drink, but the "Ordinary" is def my favorite. If you like panda and mango sticky rice you will def enjoy it. The service could be a tad bit slow but the matcha is made to order.

The matcha was creamy, rich, and not overly sweet, which I really appreciated. One thing to know if you're ordering matcha or a latte--they only offer oat milk, not almond milk. My husband loved his coffee and said the espresso was smooth, flavorful, and let the coffee shine without being overcomplicated. The shop itself is really cool too. There's an art installation inside, an outdoor patio with additional seating, and I noticed quite a few people picking up bags of espresso beans while we were there. Overall, we really enjoyed our visit and would definitely come back.

Not greeted upon entering the business just gave me that stare with not asking if I had any questions. I dont recall his name but he was very skinny, curly hair or wavy and i believe he had braces, but not sure if he was having a bad day but something wasn't all there. I ordered 2 drinks, I forget the other but it had cinnamon on top. The drinks were just hand on the counter without saying which drinks is which, so i asked which one is which. Didn't hear me, so i kinda said again and he pointed them out not in a nice or rude way but the approach of how it was handled was not friendly. How can you have Mazapán without the Mazapán crumbles which are very iconic to the drink. I just found it super strange and did not care for it. The cinnamon based drink was good tho, which I'll give them that. Experience could have been better.

Monique and Danica were both amazing. They're warm, welcoming, and you can really see the passion behind what they do. Danica is also the DJ, and her eclectic playlist made the whole experience even better. One of my favorite parts was just sitting there watching our drinks being made. You can see the care and craft that goes into every cup...even the Kuramoto ice is beautiful. The Matcha Americano completely changed my perception of matcha. The Kyoto cold brew pour-over was fascinating to watch and incredibly smooth. We loved it so much that we came back the very next day.

If you're looking for a quick coffee run, this isn't it.
