I had High hopes for this place. I order a dirty chai and it had a fake taste to it. Not sure if it had an artificial sweetener but it was not good. My daughter's chai was mostly milk. Not sure I would give this place another go. read more

I am having a hard time choosing a star rating for this place. It's adorable and has so much potential but the wait was close to 20 mins just to get to the register. The girl who was ringing the drinks was also making them...then later the gal making the food came over to ring. All in all, cute place, incredible location, lackluster baristas. The coffee wasn't bad. Nothing too gourmet here but they do have plenty of breakfast options. Also I was reading previous 1 star reviews about no mask...and there is a posted pic of a sign that says "please wear a mask." Please, fellow yelpers, be gracious in your reviews as businesses are struggling to stay afloat. A few terrible reviews can truly tank a business and Nautical Bean deserves better. Cheers!

My daughter and I found this little coffee shop while in San Diego. We first like to find small local coffee shops before going to a franchise and this one was in walking distance to where we were staying! This coffee shop not only sells coffee, but they also have açaí bowls and smoothies! The coffee itself was very delicious and we came back to this coffee shop every day. If you live in the area, people brought their dogs with them too! read more

Last time I went here with my mobility service dog I was told my dog had to wait outside !!! Wait...what??? I need said dog to keep me standing upright. I was also told could not have dog in outside seating area. This has been going on for at least 16 years as I am on my third service dog. I thought things had changed so I tried again. Nope read more

Friendly staff first off, the place was clean and the menus were easy to read. The service was fast and the coffee was delicious. The bonus part is the seating area that was very clean and the glass to look out on the harbor was spotless. They have heaters for the winter which I think is super nice and thoughtful. Will have to come again! Lots of parking for a quick coffee or if you want to walk around the harbor. Will be going back, give it a try! read more

Got a vanilla cold brew, which was actually pretty good despite not cream or anything. The croissant sandwich was underwhelming, I wouldn't bother with the food again. Definitely a busy touristy spot, but there's nice views at least. read more

The worst latte I have ever had. At least it was hot. Terrible and expensive. Only game in the harbor

This spot is right in front of the water in the harbor and it's absolutely adorable. The coffee is divine! Definitely a vibe, 100% recommend. The staff is also so friendly!! read more

Very cute coffee stand located at the Oceanside Harbor. My coworker and I passed by while we were waiting for our table at Stratford. We thought it looked nice so we made a point to go back after we finished brunch. We both got the oreo blended drink which has espresso in it. I must say it tasted delicious! highly recommend! They have a cute outdoor setup where you can enjoy your drinks while looking onto the harbor! read more

First time here for coffee As well as ordered a wrap. Coffee was great and wrap had an amazing taste to it. Great customer service. Really cool owner was outside talking to customers Highly recommend read more

While documenting my trip in Oceanside, I was interrupted by the owner who asked accusatory questions about my work and purpose there. Upon learning I work in social media professionally, his demeanor lightened slightly as he proudly mentioned their 30 years in business. With that poor customer service, I can say I'm definitely shocked it's been that long. read more

I wish we had this coffee in Phoenix, AZ! This coffee was delicious and so were the food items. The views were beautiful and relaxing. I look forward to visiting again. read more

If you are at the Harbor and want coffee, it's a great location and they have coffee. I'd recommend a half dozen other spots before Nautical Bean truthfully if you want good coffee however. Service is usually decent when it is busy, but if it's slow and they don't know you, the vibe is more "inconvenienced" like you get the feeling they'd rather not have to serve you and go back to socializing with the people who either own it or live there. Cozy with killer views otherwise. read more

Two plain ice coffees...$16.36 (charges on my on-line banking: $13.20 & $3.16 Didn't have my reading glasses and pushed what I thought was the lowest tip price. The coffee was horrible. One star as the atmosphere was fabulous. read more

I LOVED my cold brew here. So glad I decided to stop in! Give it a try for yourself before you believe bad reviews. :)

Came in to an empty space. Waited for a bit, then was completely ignored by the person who "worked" there when they arrived.. in fact, she made her way in the opposite direction to speak to the "regulars". After standing there for a few more minutes, I ultimately got the hint.. no latte for me today.. I'll enjoy the beach thirsty. read more

Located down in the harbor with amazing views is hands down one of my favorite small coffee shops. The service is always polite and fast. The chocolate croissant heated is to die for and the ice lattes are unmatched. Definitely give this place a try. read more

My boyfriend and I arrived at Nautical Bean Coffee Co. on a Thursday around 10:30 AM. The shop is a walk away from the beach, and there is an outdoor seating area. Since this is a coffee / breakfast shop, there naturally would be more business in the morning. When we got there, there were a few people already in line or ordering. We did not have to wait too long to place our orders. The employee took our order swiftly and with good customer service. My boyfriend and I ordered a caramel latte blended drink, a Master's Blend coffee, a chile verde wrap, a croissant sandwich, and a coffee cake. We did not know have to wait too long until our food and drinks were ready. The caramel latte blended drink was super sweet, just how I wanted. If you do not like sweet drinks, the caramel latte blended drink is not for you. It tastes similar to a milkshake. The chili verde wrap was also good. It seemed to be lacking a bit of flavor, that kick of tanginess, but it was enjoyable nonetheless. The coffee cake was delicious! It was so soft and so crumbly and the perfect amount of sweetness. The coffee cake was my favorite food item from this meal. I give Nautical Bean Coffee Co. a solid 10 out of 10 and recommend this cute coffee shop to all coffee and pastry lovers! I will be visiting here again! read more

For as busy as they get they are quick!! The cold brew is always good I just tried their bacon breakfast burrito I would recommend it

I got a latte with Oat milk, and I barely tasted coffee. It tasted more like warmed up oat milk. Customer service wasn't that great either. The cashier wasn't friendly at all. It's just the location is nice and it's in the middle of the harbor and the beach. On weekend, free parking is hard to find. read more

Great little place right in OS harbor. Opens early which is perfect for grabbing a coffee and going for a walk down the beach. They also have a selection of food items. It's more of a grab and go type spot but they do have a mini outdoor dining area overlooking the harbor. Good friendly service and good coffee. read more

Yummy food! Great atmosphere and great coffee!!! We come here every time we go to the Harbor.

Came here this morning and got the coconut cream cold brew with sweet cream on top. The drink was perfectly creamy, smooth and not too sweet at all. One of my new favorite cold brew drinks in Oceanside! Quick, friendly service and of course great views of the water. read more

Great coffee stop in the marina. It's a great place to sit and gaze at the boats and the gulls. Unfortunately, it also makes me want to play hooky from work. The owner was washing the windows when I was there last, nice guy. It's apparent that he's active and takes pride in his establishment. read more

The reason I gave 2 stars and not 1 is because the ambiance is excellent. I sat with my son on the patio watching pelicans dive for food, pretty awesome. The branding is great and vibe was cool. The baristas were very nice. But the coffee was horrible. I got my normal latte and it's hard to describe. Just really bad. There's good lattes which are rare. there's decent lattes which almost all coffee shops fall in to. There's bad coffee which is pretty rare. And then there's "leave a 2 star review bad." I literally couldn't taste the coffee... just tasted like a cup of steamed milk. I even ordered it with extra shots. Not to mention $7 for a latte? Pretty crazy for the product received. I don't have a problem paying $7 for a bomb coffee. $4.50-$5 is almost always what we'll known and good coffee shops charge for excellent coffee. read more

Stumbled upon this place after surfing one morning. It's a cute neighborhood coffee shop, coffee and food are decent and baristas are super friendly! Only complaint is it's a little pricey for average coffee, however, happy to support this coffee shop as they are always so kind and even threw some bacon in my togo breakfast for my dog this last visit. Thanks Nautical Bean! read more

Just had coffee here while meeting a friend. It was at harbor and a sheltered area was provided which was nice by the docks. There were a couple tables and high top seating with atea reserved for vets only. read more

My friend wanted to meet up and we certainly picked the right time to stop in for coffee on a mid week morning. We were in the area to do some shopping, and were both starving, perfect for grabbing a bite to eat on the go... read more

A longtime coffee shop that has been at the Oceanside Harbor since the 90's. You get great views of the boats docked and paddle boarders going by at the harbor while you wait in line. They even have a small indoor seating area that faces the harbor that you can sit and drink your coffee at. I'm from out of town and stay in Oceanside a lot. I frequent the Nautical Bean because they are open early and their coffee is so much better than the crap in my hotel. I usually get a coffee and a pastry and sit and watch the boats go by. Nautical also serves espresso drinks, tea, juices, smoothies, breakfast sandwiches and lunch. The lines can get pretty long later in the day as all the beach traffic passes by this coffee shop. Their coffee has always been pretty good and the service is decent. They do get behind a lot on specialty drinks and food orders which is why I just order regular coffee now. It was also weird when they had an anti-mask sign up for some time and then put up a "wear a mask" sign later on during COVID-19 summer. Just stick to making good coffee. I like their Night Watch and Kona Extra Fancy coffee blends. You can order bags of the Night Watch on their website. read more

first of all, i went to get a yummy acai bowl and i was pretty excited but when they gave it to me they put 2 pieces of fruit, 2 pieces of granola and the acai was fully frozen. I paid $12 for about 5 bites of an acai bowl. Then, i decided to give them a second chance and get a bagel and it came out fully black burnt. they have been lacking. read more

Nautical Bean is a fun place for the location more than the coffee, but the vibe is that of a beach town hole in the wall coffee joint that provides a great cup of coffee for a morning stroll down the pier and beaches. I've been here twice when in town and both times have been fully satisfied! The only thing to know about it is that there's a chance you'll be waiting for awhile as it's popular and the line can get a bit long! Worth the wait though! :) read more

Friendly coffeeshop with dockside seating overlooking the harbor. Bagels and breakfast sandwiches. Dog friendly. Free parking.

Came here to get coffee while waiting to be seated at Stratford. Long line to get coffee, which is usually a good sign. We saw they had breakfast burritos for $6.50 and $7.50. Canceled Stratford and got two bacon burritos and one Chile Verde. See Photos for what we got. Apparently they are pre-made. But these burritos tasted like something you get out of the fridge at Circle K and have to heat in the microwave. WOW. Talk about harbor price gauging at it's finest! Coffee was below average at best. All of the restaurants on the harbor except Stratford are not worth the price. read more

I just purchased a hot chocolate 12 oz for $4.50, well my husband hands me the cup and it feels horrible light. I open the cup and is full of foam...I believe it was 3/4 down n where the foam started...and the foam was at least 2 inches..that means that she probably gave me 3 max 4 oz of hot Chocolate. I walk in to tell her my cup is almost empty n fool of foam, she does it again and again gives me a cup full of foam. Maybe she added another 2 oz of liquid. If you own a business show your bariatas or provide the tool needed to hold foam back. Not coming back anytime soon. If I pay for something I want something in return n is not foam... read more

Love this spot in the middle of oceanside harbor, they have great selections for coffee and tea with good quality. You also have a beautiful view to drink to! Customer service is also wonderful, there was one person taking orders and making drinks so it might take a few minutes but they are worth it! Also have a lot of snacks that's not on the menu that looks delicious. read more
