Coffee and plants! What’s not to love. The nitro cold brew hit the spot on a warm SD afternoon. A shop owner suggested this area as ‘locals corner’ in OB and I’m so glad they did!

Lovely little space. So good to see a spot with multiple coffees on bar, including some single origins.

There are few things I look for in a good shop - hospitality (being customer and neighborhood focused) and serving delicious coffee. This place nails both. Steve was great guiding me through the options available. I had a very good pour over (V60) and Kombucha (strawberry lemonade) from a local spot. Well worth the visit.

Finally a chai that isn’t too sweet and more on the spicy side. So hard to find these days even though it tastes so much better.

This coffee shop has such a great vibe. I love how they share the space with a florist so it all feels so alive and calm. Really good flat whites, and specials. Definitely ask the staff what they’re drinking lately!

These guys are great... such a sweet place to sit in calm and get some work done, surrounded by flowers and the smell of fresh brewed coffee. They're so sweet to my little dach too. Bathroom clean!

WOW! This coffee spot just made my morning! Asia was a lovely barista and greeted me with a smile and great energy. She made me the most delicious soy latte I’ve had in months. I can’t wait to go back:)

I loved this coffee shop in San Diego! I got the caramel latte, which was so delicious. The worker was so friendly and made sure we liked the drinks, and did make an adjustment when we requested one. The inside is really neat and is paired up with a flower shop. Check this out if you are looking for amazing coffee.
