The breakfast sandwiches are exceptionally good. And the coffee...so good. So so good. They are actual artists. It's not just some machine mixing drinks. Really stellar environment and product.
It's also the first coffee shop I've ever been to where an employee came by and said, "if the coffee isn't how you want it, let me know and we can adjust it how you want it."

I came here multiple days in a row, and it was consistently great service and fantastic coffee. We would be back very often to get fresh coffee and awesome breakfast sandwiches. The beans they sold there were roasted within the week, with roast date written on the bottom of the bags.
The one oddity was that they put ice in the nitro cold brew.

An amazing coffee house in San Diego downtown!
Baristas are very friendly with a beautiful attitude. Great menu with sandwiches in addition to classical pastries. I recommend egg sandwich (with multi-grain toast).
Their cappucino is also really nice and strong!
The tables in front of the cafe are nice to sit and enjoy food and drinks.
Many locals come to this place, so vibe is almost always great!

Delish coffee roasted a few blocks away right in downtown SD. Nice outdoor space including umbrellas for those too-sunny days. Pets welcome.
Staff mostly pleasant. Waits can be long at peak times (mornings ....) They have a nice selection of pastries including my fave a gluten-free pistachio cakelette.
Smells like bacon when I walked over today tempting me .... a few breakfast and lunch options.
Fair prices. Nice place to sit and watch downtown walk by

Coffee was good, but the food was not. The meat in the sandwich was a bit dry and they put wayy too much jam in it to the point where it's basically a dessert and not a savory sandwich anymore. Employees were friendly though.
