I love that there's always a nice chill vibe here. My partner loves their coffee and I love the way they make their matcha. Recently ordered the spinach feta wrap and it's my new favorite too. read more

Got the americano and cinnamon latte drink! Both pretty good. Nice spot to study, chill, and talk with friends. Service was pretty quick as well with options for indoor (reusable) cups or to go (regular plastic cups). read more

Just a heads up, they turn their WiFi off on the weekends, which might matter if you're planning to work there. They also offer paper straws which is not my personal preference. I tried the classic açaí bowl, but it just wasn't for me. Overall, it seems like a solid spot with a good vibe, just not my favorite this time around. read more

Nice airy cafe with really nice family vibes. Lots of babies, dogs and people working. They have plenty of seating space. The workers were kind Creamy earthy matcha, not mind blowing in flavor, this matcha definitely needs a sweetener because the matcha alone wasn't crazy amazing like I've had before. The avocado toast was good, the bread was the vocal point for me. I could of done without the microgreens but that's okay. read more

My search for work-friendly cafes continues and Vigilante is perfect! Not only is there ample seating, free available parking and long hours but they also have WiFi and outlets! One thing to note is the WiFi is only available during the work week, not the weekends. The coffee had a good flavor and they did not miss with the classic vanilla latte. I tried their blueberry lemon scone and was told it was a customer favorite but I did not enjoy it. It was dry and cake-like. Not moist/fluffy enough (was more like bread). My friend tried their avocado toast and felt it was pretty filling. Overall, great work space! read more

Great coffee shop located right off the 101 in south O. This place is pretty huge and has a ton of seating options indoors with a couple outdoor tables. They have excellent options for both coffee and pastries but what stand out the most for me is their beans! This place roasts exceptionally, take a bag of "tin lizzie" home and thank me later.., read more

Vigilante Coffee - Latte & ham/cheese croissant - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Oceanside, California

Vigilante is quickly becoming one of my favorite coffee spots in San Diego. It's located in South Oceanside, just about 10 minutes from the pier, and the space itself is big, bright, and airy with plenty of seating including outdoor options. It's the perfect place to hang out or get some work done. Most importantly, their lattes and service are amazing. My go-to orders are an iced latte with iced vanilla latte and a salted caramel latte with breve, and both were excellent. read more

Convenient coffee shot not far off the highway if you're in need of a pick me up while sitting in that awful traffic. The amount of time it took to get the coffee was surprising considering no one was there to order in front of me, but I was able to walk around and check out some of the things they have for sale and cute wall art. read more

Great warehouse open door atmosphere vibe, chill, dog friendly, lots of places to sit and work, lots of plugs available for charging, they have matcha, coffee, acai bowls, and cafe food! They even sell dog pup cups for $2.50 with yogurt, peanut butter, blue berry and honey. Loved working here. WiFi is great on weekdays but it might be shut off on weekends to encourage people to socialize instead of working. Overall good vibes, great ocean breeze. read more

This place was so nice and I'm very happy to have found it. The coffee was really good and I'm so happy with the avocado toast that I ordered. The bread was good and the seasoning was delicious. The coffee was good in a way where you can tell the beans were roasted nicely. Th staff were super friendly and I liked their water station they had. It's a very spacious area with a lot of seating and outlets available for charging. They do only have Free WiFi Monday- Friday though which was weird but this is a place worth visiting. read more

I've only been here once but I love it! Everything's is very affordable, there's one size on all drinks. Simple menu, the service is great. And they have dog treats for your pups when you bring them! They sell nice merch also. I ordered a matcha latte with peppermint in it and it was so yummy, I love my drink! What a great suggestion from the guy up front. I also love their home made pop tart.thanks vigilante coffee! read more

Vigilante is my new go-to coffee spot in North County! This place is packed every time I go, but the line moves quick. Getting your drink can take some time but it's soooo worth it. Lots of seating inside and outside, though, I usually opt for outside since the weather is always gorgeous. Do yourself a favor and get a large latte, it comes with 4 shots which makes it beyond worth the price -- which isn't unreasonable for craft coffee in Oceanside. Will always recommend this spot to people looking for a good coffee place! read more

Vigilante Coffee - Large Vanilla Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Oceanside, California

It is VERY RARE that I write a review while at the business that I am writing the review about. But this coffee shop deserves all the rave. The ambiance is super cool and chill. Located super close to the ocean, it has the benefit of having its own parking which is a SUPER +++ The nice tall barista helped to figure out what is good to order. He suggested the vanilla latte (half sweet) which really hit the spot. They know their stuff for sure. Some places the baristas don't even want to say hello, letalone help you to choose what drink to get. I always like to see what they recommend and what their specialty is. Their ceramic mugs are HUGE and they fill it up! I HATE when some coffee shops don't offer ceramic cups. Some of them don't even have large size drink cups which is super LAME! Not this place! If you are ever in the area or heading to SD, this is a great charging station! Triple bookmark it! read more

Solid pastries, açaí bowls, and coffee. The issue is that I used to go here to work but the music has been really loud lately. This location isn't that walkable so it doesn't cross my radar to swing by to grab coffee if I don't plan on working there anymore. read more

Vigilante Coffee is a must stop. I went yesterday and ordered the GOAT bagel and a flat white, and both were absolutely delicious. The bagel was perfectly done and the flat white was rich and bold. The coffee is strong in the best way, which I really appreciate. Great spot for high quality coffee and a solid bite. I will definitely be back. read more

This is a $28 bag of whole beans & it was SOO INCREDIBLY disappointing!!! $28!!! It does not really brew /steep like regular coffee at all. It also smells & tastes like... well, it's namesake. Super overpriced & totally not worth $28!! I'm so disappointed. read more

Been here twice and both times my matcha was delicious. Ordered it hot and sweetened with honey . I tried their dirty chai and it was good as well. Look forward to trying other drinks in the future. Also loved the industrial interior but beachy vibe of this place. Idk if that made sense. Service was good too, Batista was really sweet. read more

"Man, I wish we had a place like this in Denver." These were my words to the group as we walked in. Unanimous agreement. On a recent trip to the area, we stayed nearby and Vigilante was the stop every morning (and one bonus afternoon) for coffee. The horchata latte rules. I upgraded to a large on days 2-3 because it's simply that good. I have not found one like it since. The pastry case gave us delicious chocolate croissants and various donuts & cookies that hit the spot. More than anything we liked the vibe here. Staff were smiling. So were the people chilling all around the large, open, airy space. I had never considered buying swag at a coffee shop, but left here with a rolling tray and some sweet stickers. Amsterdam taught us how well some things go with coffee. Vigilante seems to have caught on. Next time we're in Oceanside, we'll be back. Five stars. read more

Very popular place, but was just so so for me. No internet on the weekend so people have time to be social. That's fine. Not my thing, but fine. But came back the next day and the internet kept going in and out, so couldn't work. And the Americano coffee felt pretty watered down also. Not great. read more

I have to come back for the coffee but the vegan cinnamon roll was so insanely good never had a cinnamon roll that amazing. The açaí bowl was okay, and the vibes were decent. Big warehouse with lots of seating and not bad decorations. Baristas nice tho and recommended the roll so yea read more

I've posted once before, but this time I ordered something different. I ordered a small fruit bowl and it was delicious! And I feel like I got a lot for the price! Love coming here because how roomie it is and how there's eating both inside and outside. Service, as always, was amazing! read more

Got the $9 pour over again because it was so great before. Not worth a dollar this time. The large acai bowl is somehow smaller than the small, and melted. $30 mistakes these days don't make me want to come back read more

Two big thumbs up for Vigilante Coffee. Set in the kind of open and comfortable industrial space that is now a signature of San Diego venues, VC delivers both good vibes and first rate espresso drinks. The baristas seem to know their craft and they are working with good product. In sum, it is the kind of coffee spot that I love to find, patronize, and hang out in. Their food menu is next on my list to try. Regardless of the edibles, whenever I am along the 101 in Oceanside and am in need of a cortado or latte, this is going to be my new and first port of call. Highly recommended. read more

Obsessed with vigilante. I tell everyone about it. I'd drive here every day from south San Diego if it weren't for the traffic. The vibe inside is amazing, I tell all my north county friends to get their work done in this cute little shop. I am yet to try something I haven't loved. Honestly, nothing bad to say. Please open a location down south! read more

I've been here a few times and have ordered a variety of drinks, but they've all been great although in my opinion, they tend to be on the bitter side or "strong", but I don't mind. The staff is always friendly and efficient. The wait is usually between 3-9 mins depending on how busy they are. The seating area can be a bit tricky, but they do have many options. read more

I wrote a review a few months back when they changed croissant suppliers from Petite Madeline. The new one was not good. PM just closed so I went by to see what the current situation was, and they are now carrying croissants from a company in Vista. They looked good so I ordered the turkey havarti and a plain. I was very pleasently surprised that the new supplier is even better than PM!!! Way to go guys. Whoever sourced those for you deserves a raise!!! Deserves more than 5 stars actually. read more

Great coffee and pastries! Had a delicious ham and cheese croissant and a maple spice latte. The croissant was light and fluffy, and the ham and cheese were distributed fairly evenly. The latte was nicely balanced, not too sweet. The space is also really nice. It's huge, and has tons of seating. They a lot of cute merch too and tons of flyers for local events.

First impression of my first visit... Fantastic chill space to work from or hang with friends at. And GREAT coffee. I stopped here when driving to eat dinner at OSide Harbor, and needing a caffeine boost. So I look forward to coming back and sampling more of their goods.

Got a pour-over that was way over-extracted and bitter. The barista was helping other customers the whole time, so each pour took more than 2 min and the total brew dragged on past 6 minutes. Fruit notes were there but drowned in a sour-bitter mess instead of being bright and clean. Good beans, shame about the distracted execution. Pour-overs need focus, hope it's better on a quieter visit. read more

just wanted to add that this place is still awesome and the lady who made my matcha deserves a kiss on the forehead thank you read more
