    Purses, pins, plants and mugs for sale.
    Jessica V.

    Plants, caffeine, and only a 10min walk from the beach. This is a great spot for coffee and matcha. The staff is friendly, they offer pastries and botanical vibes! While waiting for my drink and I browsed their plants, stickers, coffee mugs, coin pouches, pins. They even sell a leaf-shaped purse with a pin display pouch! I snagged a few stickers for my water bottle and pins as souvenirs. There are 1-2 picnic tables outside in front of the cafe, so snag a table when you can.

    My favorite coffee shop I've been coming here since it first opened as a coffee shop, and it's still my absolute favorite. The owners are such a kind, welcoming family they always make my husband and me feel right at home. I love their seasonal drinks, we always stop by to try the newest items, and they it's never s miss. Every coffee I've had has been amazing! My go-to food favorites are the torta Oaxaqueña and the ham & cheese panini, and their pastries are just as delicious. It's not just great drinks and food, you get a cozy, homey vibe, friendly faces, and beautiful plants all around. There's truly no place like Plantology

    Hibiscus tea absolutely delicious Chocolate latte to die for Banana toast incredible These ladies really know what they're doing. It's on a busy street but once you're surrounded by the plants in the back you have no idea and you're just transported to a nice calm time Absolutely delicious and aesthetic and super nice people working here Will be back soooo good the hibiscus tea

    Pots and pots and more pots!

    Plantology has been on my list for a long time, so I was so happy to finally get to go! As soon as we walked in, we could place our order and explore their plants for sale while we wanted for coffee and baked goods/food. I ordered La Morena latte and a croissant and my husband had the mocha with an everything bagel and cream cheese. We both loved our drinks but I was obsessed with La Morena. So good! Just a perfect balance between brown sugar, cinnamon, and espresso. My croissant was fluffy, flaky, and delicious as well. My husband was in the mood for a bagel with cream cheese, so the everything bagel really hit the spot. Can't wait to go back for more coffee but also for some plants! They have a lovely selection of plants, pots, and accessories.

    You love plants and coffee, this place is your best friend! Delicious coffee, bagels, and a wide selection of plants to choose from. Ladies behind the counter were hustling and very attentive.

    Such a lovely place! Super happy with our visit Food and drinks Ambiance is cutesy with all the plants! I wanted to leave with so many! (You can buy) Parking and seating can quickly become limited if it were busy. Friendly, quick, patient service (we had questions). No real wait on a Saturday at 0900. Got the morena with oat milk and it was delicious, maintained a coffee flavor with the additional flavoring, not sweet! Really appreciate that. My friend enjoyed his as well. We all ordered the torta and really enjoyed it! Not a high tolerance for spice and it was not spicy even the child with us ate it. The donuts were different and interesting. More dense, flavor that's not overly sweet. I think it would be a preference. Worth a try. The kids enjoyed it. My friend felt the matcha said was okay, nothing special. But another friend got matcha with mushroom and she really enjoyed that. Another got the chagacinno and he loved it. I loved it and if I was in town again, I would go again

    Such a gem of a place that meets all my requirements for a shop- where plants and coffee come together, in one place. Delicious coffee and unique pastries are offered by this Latin owned establishment. They are friendly and helpful with descriptions of pastries and drinks. They have created a special drink menu for the summer with beverages such as MANGO MOONRISE REFRESHER which is Mango + Black Tea + Lemonade or perhaps you'd prefer a SALTED LADY with salted caramel + choice of milk + espresso + chocolate drizzle! They have all varieties of plants, pots, and other decor. Outside on the patio there is a quaint area to sit, pick up some succulents, and hear the gentle sounds of the water fountain.

    Very good

    Expensive but so cute inside! Plants everywhere, cute stickers, pins, and Keychains you can buy, and an overall theme of Latina/women/LGBT empowerment. I love that. I wish they would add a little more seating since there was nowhere for my family to sit, so we took our items to go. I will be back to try something new next time! I bought a mocha and loved it.

    So stinking cute! They have a broad coffee menu with so many fun seasonal latte flavors. I got the cookie butter latte and it was phenom! Sweet but not too sweet and well balanced. The mocha was also tasty and well balanced. There are tons of spots to sit inside and outside. You can also buy the plants or pot your own in a little potting room. So cute and the staff is sweet too. Definitely coming back!

    Love all the beautiful and inviting art!

    I'm an absolute sucker for a coffee shop that doubles as a plant haven. There's something extra special about sipping on your favorite beverage while surrounded by greenery. Am I right? Coffee and plants truly are a perfect pairing. There's plenty of seating and a few whimsical corners to explore. The menu includes bites to munch on as well but I'd just eaten so a refreshing matcha was exactly what I needed. I love supporting small businesses whenever I can. Thank you for creating such a beautiful space for everyone to enjoy. If I lived nearby, I'd be here daily. Bonus: loads of free street parking right out front.

    Looking for an instant vibes coffee shop? You're instantly drawn in with the plant mural located outside the shop. Once you're inside you are surrounded by hanging plants and a plant oasis. Great place to study, chill, or hang out with friends if you want a break from normal cafe atmospheres. They have free treats for your dogs, water and plants and pastries for sale. When I ordered the girl at counter was very friendly and she recommended me the chagacinno. I don't regret it! It was so delicious and made me feel alert. My first time drinking mushroom coffee. I cannot wait to come back. If you're in this area, it's definitely a place worth checking out.

    Lovely tropical plants and the pots selection is great!
    Tarabud J.

    Wow! What a find! Wonderful rare plant selection. Was able to find two beautiful house plants and pots with lovely glazes. A Hawaiian Pothos plant you don't see too often and Calathea. Love this shop. Staff was knowledgeable and friendly. Gave me watering tips! I will def go back to grab a Chaga coffee! Very pleased!

Mike and the entire team at Dreamwave are doing such an incredible job of making the experience worth every penny. The quality of the coffee, the work they do, and the service they provide is truly top tier. While they do have a lot of fun flavors, this is not the kind of place that drowns the palate with sweetness. They expertly balance the ratio of syrup, milk, and espresso to provide the best outcome. The nuttiness of their roast really shines, and they're always happy to adjust the sweetness if you need them to. Personally, I love the lower sweetness level being the default. These guys know what they're doing! We've been visiting for the past week and have stopped through Dreamwave four times this week. While I'm always in the need of a coffee fix, we've gone out of our way to visit multiple times because the people have been so beyond kind. We've sampled most of the house flavors and I can confidently say they have all been delicious. This would definitely be my go-to shop if I lived nearby.

This place has such a loyal following that people will happily walk a few blocks just to get their Revo fix. One of my favorite things is their seasonal menu. I've learned to fully embrace each special while it's here because once it's gone, it's gone. Right now, I'm completely obsessed with the Coconut Mango Sticky Rice Matcha. I'm pretty sure the baristas recognize me as "the Sticky Rice Matcha lady" at this point! I'm soaking up every sip while it's in season, and although I'll be sad when it's gone, I know they'll surprise me with something amazing next season. Their food is just as impressive. The toast is delicious, they use Prager Brothers bread, organic avocado, and fresh tomatoes, and you can really taste the difference that quality ingredients make. It's refreshing to find a café that clearly cares about food integrity. Another huge bonus for me is that they offer almond milk. So many coffee shops default to oat milk, but I appreciate having another option that fits my preferences. The only downside is the parking. My strategy is simple: go early if you can. Once it gets busy, finding a spot can be an adventure. But even with that minor inconvenience, Revolution Roasters is absolutely worth the trip. Incredible coffee, thoughtful seasonal drinks, quality ingredients, and a team that clearly cares about what they serve. Easy five stars.

When I'm craving a delicious breakfast made with high-quality, organic, whole-food ingredients, I can order online, swing by, and pick it up without dealing with the rush.

With both indoor and outdoor seating, plus a dog-friendly patio, it's an easy place to meet friends or enjoy a quiet morning. Parking can be a little hit or miss, but in my experience, it usually hits. Whether you're grabbing breakfast to go or staying to soak up the vibes, Communal Coffee is always a solid choice.

It's a great spot to meet up with friends or bring my mom when she arrives at the Oside train station from Grover Beach. It's a wonderful place to grab a flavored latte, seasonal drink, a glass of wine and a lunch bite, or all of the above! I also look forward to wandering through their gift area every time, where they stock unique jewelry, candles, fragrance rollerballs and 'clean' nail polish, plants and pots, kids' merchandise, t-shirts, and other cute stuff. I always buy something extra (and special) when I come. Their coffee bar is open, as is the general space, and there is plenty of seating outside in front and in back. You can watch the baristas make your drink and peep the beautiful Italian espresso machine and lovely bouquet of dried flowers by the bar while doing so. They bring their food out to you and when your espresso drink is ready they set it on the bar for you to pick up. Definitely a place to hang vs. grabbing a quick drink and rushing off about your day. I always want to stay and catch up with friends or bring my laptop to do some work, and they never make me feel rushed. Truly one of my favorite coffee shops in North County and in SD in general. (There is another high quality coffee shop in Oceanside that has incredible coffee and pastries--I won't mention the name--but I sometimes sense an attitude from the staff there, and that is a bit of a turnoff.) Go to Communal...you will not regret it!
