    10/2023 update: Changing this star rating from my original rating to five stars. I’m so glad I went back here because it must have been an off day the first time I had visited. I haven’t tried the Vietnamese Iced Coffee again but their signature drink, The Kingslayer, is A-MAY-ZING. I get it iced and it’s super refreshing and tasty. Also, since I’ve returned I’ve found that the service level here is much better and there are typically two employees which helps matters immensely. One of my favorite coffee shops now. First time trying Hob Coffee East Village which is a super cute coffee shop on the corner of K and 11th near Petco Park. They only had one employee working which made wait times a bit long since she had to take orders and then make drinks but she was doing her best. Thankfully it wasn’t super busy or I don’t think we would have waited. Inside they have plenty of seating and sell various items related to Hob Coffee with City Connect Padres colors. We ordered the Vietnamese Iced Coffees today which, according to their menu, is four espresso shots poured over ice and condensed milk in a 16oz cup. Unfortunately the sweetness of the condensed milk couldn’t overcome the burnt taste of the espresso in these drinks. I really wanted to like them. I don’t know if the fact that there was only one person working contributed to poor espresso making because she felt rushed or if the beans were just not of good quality but we couldn’t even drink all of it. I’m giving three stars based on the cute location and vibe as well as the kindness of the barista but I don’t think that I would order an espresso here again. If we hadn’t take the drinks to go we might have asked them to make us something else.

    Small coffee shop that has interesting flavored coffee. Being a nerd I just got a standard dark roast with 2 shots and it was STRONG. The PB Banana Honey toast was good and definitely recommend it if you like a sweet breakfast that isn’t chocolate-related. Right up the road from the San Diego Convention Center and next to the Padres’ stadium so easy walking distance from those spots.

    Terrific neighborhood coffee shop. The Vietnamese iced coffee was fantastic! I also ordered the avocado toast which was fantastic. The avocado was fresh and ripe. The goat cheese and pickled onion are a perfect compliment and pairing. The staff was very helpful. Nice space to do some work on my laptop. I wish I could give more stars!

    The employees here are literal angels on earth. They’re so sweet every day, remember my order, and always make sure to give my pups a pupcup. They make a phenomenal iced dirty chai!! I love this coffee spot so much!!!
