The decor in here is cute and inviting, but it was super hot inside. I was greeted and stood for a bit looking at the menu. I decided on a regular iced latte. The pastries sounded good but it was the late afternoon and they looked like they had been sitting for a while. My latte was done quickly and I was on my way. I would have sat inside but it was much too hot. I would definitely come back in the morning for a future visit to try some of the fresh breakfast offerings and beat the heat.

A couple of bench seats inside but for the most part not a great place to hang out since it's next to a busy road anyways. The cappuccino and flat white we ordered was okay but the milk foam was very flaccid and didn't have that much texture to it. Coffee flavor was okay but couldn't make up for the mid drinks. Wouldn't come back tbh.

We…read morebooked online with no issues, and the hostess who checked us in was friendly and had us feeling welcome from the start. The open dining area strikes a great balance. It mixes industrial and classic touches with cozy leather booths, stylish décor, and an open, lively energy that still feels relaxed. It's polished enough for a special occasion but comfortable enough to linger over one more coffee, think business casual vibes. If the weather's nice, the patio is a great option too. The real MVP was our server, Katelynn. She handled all 8 of us by herself the entire time and never missed a beat. Our drinks were always fresh, and she stayed a step ahead of the table. Great solo performance. I split two entrées with my bro, which I highly recommend if you can't decide: California Burrito: Very savory, with creative sauces that set it apart from the usual breakfast burrito. Eggs Benedict: Well put together with quality ingredients. It's a classic done right. Potatoes: Fresh and delicious. I don't normally care for breakfast potatoes, and these still won me over. We left full, happy, and already planning a return trip. Bonus: The Forum Carlsbad shops are right nearby if you want to walk it off afterward, which we did. Cheers!

The seating was spacious and comfortable, and the service was great throughout. We tried the goat cheese & spinach quiche, summer salad, crème brûlée, and lemon meringue tart. The quiche was probably my favorite savory item -- super thick and fluffy with a generous piece of goat cheese on top, and the roasted potatoes on the side were really good too. The summer salad was fresh and loaded with smoked salmon, avocado, mango, and pistachios. Definitely save room for dessert. The crème brûlée had that perfect crunchy caramelized top, and the lemon meringue tart was really cute and had a nice balance of tart and sweet. I love the wide variety pastry selection and how pretty everything looks in the display case. Overall, a really nice breakfast spot -- good food, lots of space, great service, and no crazy Sunday morning wait when we went

I am always on the hunt for the best pastries around because after visiting Europe and having pastries there, nothing here in the US compares!

I'm pretty sure the owner was helping us out, and both ladies working were super nice and welcoming. Since it was our first time there, they actually gave us our drinks on the house, which was really cool and definitely not something you expect. We got the iced banana bread latte and it was really good. What I liked most was just the vibe of the place. It feels like a legit local small business with a lot of charm, and you can tell they actually care about their customers. Everyone was just genuinely friendly, which is refreshing. We live nearby and will definitely be coming back and supporting this place. Great coffee, great people, and a cool little local spot. Glad we found it!

Staff weren't that happy to be there , they dotn smile. Music? Bare minimum..you can barely hear it maybe. The place? Feels like an abandoned taco shop. No decoration, their deli is empty..their pastry looks old . Ok time to order some coffee. I only see one menu on the wall. Super minimalist. So ordered, then I looked down at the counter..there is another menu for specialty..so I gave it a tried. The menu sounded very cocktail type of descriptions...well give it a try! Received my tiny hot little coffee for over $7 drink. My hand is actually bigger than the cup. Ok I took a first sip.. not good. No bueno. It has an after taste of bitterness and is not blending well with the cherry flavor. The golden hour ice drink was so bad, my friend ended up throwing it. I would definitely not recommend anyone to come here if you are a truly coffee drinker.

Don't come here if you are looking for an espresso, latte, or any other specialty coffee that you usually get at a coffee shop. Come here for one thing which is the MOJITO coffee.

We have ordered a few different lattes from the menu and we can't choose the favorite one, because they are all delicious. We recommend: Hazelnut divinity Latte and Honey Latte- it's a MUST TRY! It's a perfect blend of flavors , not too sweet and not too bitter either. They roast their beans to perfection in a small batches and I think that is a secret recipe to get that perfect coffee! We have also tried their food : Bacon Ciabatta sandwich. The food was delicious, fresh and a ciabatta bread was soft. Highly recommend it!!! The shop is not that big inside and it can get quite busy with long lines . But surprisingly we did not wait too long and the staff were fantastic and they were quick and efficient. The outside seating area is a very nice place to sit and enjoy your latte in a beautiful Encinitas weather. Overall: it's a cute little coffee shop, the staff were very friendly and welcoming and their lattes are just pure perfection!!! Can't wait to go back!!!
