    Wonderful service and drinks as always! :) This was our first time doing walk-up ordering. We usually go through the drive-thru on the other side of the shack. Overall, an easy and super quick process! [[HIGHLIGHT]]There are a few clean tables and seats outside, which we sat at briefly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Would definitely do the walk-up order or drive-thru again. I really recommend this place! :) P.S. They have stamp cards too. Once you order 9 drinks, you get your 10th one free! Yay!

    Iced Latte with Horchata Flavor

    The smoothest, creamiest cup of coffee I've ever gotten! Absolutely delicious. My mom is a big fan and she finally convinced me to come, but man it's some of the best coffee I've had in all of North County. The Iced Latte with Horchata flavoring is top tier.

    We were driving down El Norte Parkway on our way to the freeway, and as we crossed over Broadway, I remembered the new boba place where Del Taco is and I quickly changed lanes because we were very thirsty. I'm so glad the car was nimble enough to safely get us to Rise Coffee and Boba!!! It can be a challenge to find a "good" boba place, much less finding a one nearby. However, Rise Coffee and Boba fulfills this challenge and more. It is easy to find, easy to use the drive thru and easy to read the menu. We (my daughter and I) ordered the 24 oz passion fruit flavored tea with boba with eager anticipation. We were not disappointed!!! The boba was perfect and the tea not overly sweet. This satisfied our thirst and gave us a sense of accomplishment discovering a gem in our own neighborhood. Definitely want to try the other menu items in the future. As we were leaving, I decided to back up the car to ask the names of the proprietors, since they were so friendly and showed how much they want to share a little bit of sunshine to their patrons. Tyler and Karen were very hospitable, although I may have caused their hearts to skip a beat thinking that there was something wrong with order. We assured them all was well, and my daughter tried the boba and gave them 2 thumbs up for the properly prepared boba. This is definitely a friendly neighborhood place where you can get refreshed, energized and inspired with no pretentious flair, but, hard work and joy to share. Thanks for the experience!!! We will be back!!! PS: I noticed that the ice cubes have a special shape. They seem to last long and with it being clear, it must be well purified!!! Thanks for the special attention to help the drinks be the best it can be!!!

    The food/drink was great in taste.I however ordered a hot drink and was given a cold drink. The ambiance is clean and open so it's nice to just chill If you want to enjoy your drink outside. However, I was pretty disappointed to get a cold drink instead of the hot drink. When I ask the young lady why I was given a cold drink she said we don't make this hot. So suggestion would be ask and verify the order and make sure to say if it's hot or cold.

    Located next to our favorite donut shop, this little stand has assorted coffees and Boba Teas. Service is quick and with a smile. There is a small seating area in the back.

    Large Hazelnut Latte + add boba .. delish and a perfect work-from-home treat!!

    Quite dangerous as ALL their drinks are so delicious and they are only a few blocks from home...and have the convenience of a drive-thru window! Their coffee drinks are smooth, and their boba is soft, chewy, and fresh. The owners are so friendly, too. We are hooked!

    Ordered three different flavored iced bobas and all were superb. Drinks were rich in flavor and the boba was cooked to perfection not mention the flavor. Ordered the 16oz as we didn't know what to expect, will be ordering 24 oz next time. All forms of payment are accepted and it's DRIVE THRU!

    This is my 2nd time here and the I got the exact same coffee from last time. Let me just say, it tastes even better. I've constantly stopped by this place on my way to work or on my way home from work. I'm so glad I've finally tried it. Usually when I go to coffee shops their lattes are either too strong or not sweet enough but this place has found a balance between both. Plus they also serve coffee and boba together, like what???? P.s. I've tried it and it's delicious

    Chocolate & Strawberry  Milk Tea with Lychee Popping! Oh so savory. The pops really make the drink. Feel like a little kid again
    Erin D.

    So delish!! Love this place. Already been here twice. Super friendly and delish. An Esco gem. Boba-tastic!

    The good and coffee here are absolutely delicious. I'm not a coffee person really(tea's my thing)…read morebut I really enjoyed the mocha I had here. The turnover 11/10, and I will make special trips just to get great pastries. The service here is very kind, inviting and so helpful. They have some seating inside and a few tables outside as well for ample seating. The ONLY negative thing about this place they have no control over. The parking SUCKS OUT LOUD. I hate trying to park in downtown Escondido. I can't take anything away from them for this but-for me- the frustration in this keeps it from being my regular place. If you live in the area and like good coffee and food, 100% would recommend

    I love the ambience here, but always feel a little meh about the coffee, but let me explain: I'm a…read morebold coffee person. I love a rich roast. Their coffee tends towards a brighter, citric flavor that reminds me very much of cold brew. Which I don't care for. But others might! So if a brighter, lighter flavor is what you enjoy (what up tea people) then this might be the place you're looking for. And again, I adore the vibe here. Probably the chillest work/read spot in all of Escondido. Parking can be rough if downtown is busy, but only if you're adamant about needing to be very close for mobility reasons etc. Otherwise you can usually find something walkable. Beautiful, open cafe with a lovely view of the small park across the street and downtown Esco.

    The staff is great. The manager is awesome. David Taylor always takes care of us whenever we go…read moremaking sure we get the best quality espresso. We can Definitely a cool coffee shop in San Diego. The pastries here are pretty good. I heard they just changed the bagels only made by their sister Co.. I need to give those a try I got the coffee soda basically like an espresso tonic pretty good the glass that it comes i in his super cool and different to most of the places you get coffee at the side of the building is small, but still kind of spacious in a way gives us pretty cool atmosphere. I heard they're gonna do some more upgrades to the inside, making it feel a little more home like that's cool cause I like cozy spots with a manly touch concrete leather metals. It's just a vibe.

    I wanted to give this place another shot, I know people love. I was in the area and popped in…read more I ordered a large hot non fat mocha. Which is my standard order. And picked up an almost croissant. They do not shelve non fat milk, but have oat and almond. So I went with oat. Two customers that came after me go thier drinks first. And when mine came up, it was lovely but not right. It was a cold mocha. They remade it. It was just a wee annoying, especially since I was coming here with the hopes of a mind blowing experience. The coffee was fine. The staff seem to know the local regulars and chat them up appropriately. The seating it still hard and uncomfortable. I'll try again one more time to see if hey flip my bippy. So far two stars for they way they interacted with other. One star for the pastry and the coffee mis up and late service was a - of stars. And my picky pastry folks (she knows who she is) would say it's not a true croissant, as there are cuts across the pastry... but it's buttery and flaky..
