Coffee Shops near Cardiff

“The MOST magical coffee shop in San Diego. The staff and owners are the sweetest people ever. Always the best community vibes, amazing matcha, and wonderful pastries. Every time I wear my Rosehill hoodie I get endless compliments. Thank you for making our neighborhood coffee shop feel like stopping by a friend’s house 💗☕️“

“Always great coffee and the empanadas are great 🔥🔥“

“Visiting from out of town & Dog 🐶 Friendly.“

“I love the coffee here!! 🤤“

“This is the best coffee I’ve ever had, and I’m from Seattle! I’ve been looking for good coffee for months on the San Diego area, now this is my favorite coffee place in the world!
Naturally sweet beans, chocolate forward so the sweetness comes from the bean and not a burned bitter flavor. Perfect! Shop has eclectic vibe and fun stuff for sale, like cassette tapes and a view master! I recommend no other place for coffee!“

“The best specialty coffee roaster in San Diego! You can tell they have great relationships with their farmers and care about their products. Coffee always tastes great in the shop and when I bring bags of beans home. I’m always taking friends here to try some good coffee. 😊“

“Delicious chai tea, lemonade, and pastry. Comfortable seating. Friendly staff.“

“Shout out to Mac Williamson for his help in updating my logo and hooking me up with a company that provided a table runner quickly and inexpensively. Now I'm ready to exhibit at the SD Festival of Books!“

“I had tried other places where the service was generally very bad and I felt like they only wanted my money, but here I was very happy. Chelsea was the best, she made my afternoon very pleasant and was extremely kind to me. I loved the whole experience and it was an afternoon that I truly enjoyed where I was able to talk and relax, and my nails turned out beautiful! Highly recommended and I will definitely be back!“

“Not only does Drew knowledge of coffee exceed your expectations, but the service is always friendly and the product is on point! Not to mention the merchandise is well priced and the t-shirts are super soft. He even delivers so there’s no need to worry about when you’re going to get it! A little joy is exactly what you feel when you’re doing business here!“

“This morning, I enjoyed a cup of coffee, with my wife, at Steady State Roasting. The first thing I noticed was the open and airy atmosphere. The hanging plants only added to the ambiance. My wife delightfully sipped from a latte, while I had a house coffee. The house coffee was uniquely flavored, a bit bitter. Steady State Roasting has reusable stirring spoons, which is eco-friendly. Finally, they offer indoor and outdoor seating, to optimize the moment. Yes, this experience was worthy of a return visit.“

“I LOVE this place especially for their matcha lattes. Best that I've tasted! I've taken great effort to try matches in every city I've traveled. These are the best! I also love their delicious gluten-free products, BIG plus for me. The outdoor patio is comfortable and charming. The staff has always been congenial, accommodating and happy. Excellent place all around!“

“I met Marcela and Amina at an industry event recently and they were AWESOME! They have the cutest cart, the most delicious drinks, and best of all - they are just incredibly fun to hang out with! Highly highly recommend for a holiday party, wedding, industry event... seriously anything. Love them!“

“The location is excellent and the food is beyond fantastic. I can't get enough of this place. the experience so far is TOP!!!! It really is that good. It's a must try. You will not be disappointed. love it.“

“Love Broad st Dough. Many varieties of donuts all made to order.“

“Best Coffe shop in San Diego Is really good quality Coffe and their baristas are very good“

“The food is so delicious and everything is so beautiful. You feel so fancy sipping her delicious mango tea. I hosted a birthday party for my mom and my family loved it. Great customer service! This was my second time there and we plan on going back again! Thank you!“

“I love exploring new coffee shops, and this one has a delightful charm that instantly caught my attention. The cozy ambiance, with its soft lighting and inviting decor, makes it the perfect spot to unwind. Today, I decided to try the Hammer Head Coffee, known for its bold flavor and invigorating strength—just what I needed after a restless night. The aroma is rich and captivating, providing an immediate boost. In addition to the coffee, they offer an enticing selection of pastries, each one more tempting than the last, making it difficult to choose just one.“

“Claire's Too is a convenient to-go coffee shop and more, located right next door to Claire's on Cedros in Solana Beach, California. Both establishments are charming and situated just a couple of blocks from Fletcher's Cove, making it a great spot to grab a coffee or snack before heading to the beach, which is exactly what I did.

I decided to get a turkey panini, although I was very tempted by the delicious-looking pastries. The menu mentioned that the turkey panini included cranberries and deli mustard, but neither was on my sandwich. When I inquired about it, the lady at the counter seemed a bit annoyed but did go to the main restaurant to get me a side. Unfortunately, she only returned with cranberry sauce and no deli mustard, which was disappointing. Additionally, the turkey did not fully cover the bread, leaving a quarter of it as plain toasted bread. Despite these issues, the sandwich was tasty enough.

Overall, Claire's Too is a good spot for a quick bite or coffee, but be mindful of potential discrepancies with menu descriptions. The staff's response could have been more accommodating, but the quality of the food was satisfactory. I would still recommend giving it a try, especially for their beverages and pastries.

Additional Information:

Great location near Fletcher's Cove for a beach day.
Offers a small picnic area for a quick outdoor snack.
Variety of specialty coffees, snacks, and pastries available.
Check your order for accuracy, as some ingredients might be missing.
The main restaurant next door, Claire's on Cedros, is also worth a visit for a more extensive dining experience.

“I want to say yes and recommend them. But I can't because I have a subscription to their coffee but they sent me the wrong coffee. it's been about a week, I've call a few times, left two voice mail messages, I've emailed as well and I have not gotten any response at all. The coffee I bought and subscribed to is good, but I can't continue to do business with a company that won't respond to their customers to fix their mistakes.“

“Wonderful espresso macchiato! I asked for an espresso with a teeny bit of steamed milk. Cafe Mexicana was divine! Love the plants and the artwork inside. Also has outdoor seating. Staff are very nice. Just found this place yesterday. We will definitely be back. ❤️“

“We visited about eight different coffee shops in the area within the last week. Hands-down, this was by far our favorite. It had really great flavor, the coffee was nice and strong and homemade flavors were amazing. The ice lattes had a little foam on top which was refreshing and so good. They are across the Parking lot from In-N-Out. They have a great unique fun menu and some unique cold brew options that were really great!“

“My husband and I love INVITA!!! Don’t miss the avocado toast! It is absolutely delicious! Toasted sourdough bread covered with avocado, salted tomato, drizzled with olive oil and fresh cracked red pepper! The green ice tea is refreshingly good. Thank you for being open! Please support this local business! Super friendly staff.“

“love ❤love.... only get out this way once a year but we have fallen in love w Encinitas and we come back here every time“

“Absolutely the Best and most welcoming Coffee shop Ive enjoyed! To know that it's Mission oriented is so pleasing to the Lord♡! Great salads and of course coffee too!“

“So beautiful and just like the reviews! It was so serene and nice. The man working was so kind and made sure the food and latte were perfect 👌. The iced latte I ordered was so creamy and not super sweet, and paired wonderfully with the butter croissant. 10/10, absolutely amazing and would recommend.“

“Always great coffee and the empanadas are great 🔥🔥“

“Ngl I thought price is expensive considering their 20oz iced latte is more expensive than Venti iced latte from Starbucks. I just gave it a shot anyway and it tasted GOOD. Kind of worried because their working speed doesn't seems to be good at working many people at the same time, but they do have good coffee.“

“Excellent pistachio gelato!“

“We have been looking for a place that served tasty Acai Bowls…Our favorite Acai bowl places either, closed down, burned down or changed the way they made their Acai bowls…We found Liquid Bean Café on the internet and decided to give it a try…Well, we both had the Acai bowls but I added an Egg Salad Sandwich pressed in a Panini press to our order…The Acai Bowls were fresh and totally delicious!!!…I really liked the Egg Salad Sandwich and loved the way it was pressed and toasted in the Panini press…We highly recommend Liquid Bean Café if you are ever in the Del Mar area…We will definitely be back again!!!…Five Stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“By far my favorite coffee in all North County, was surprised they are actually using Lofty beans because I like their coffee more than lofty.The coffee there is always top notch, and is perfectly balanced.Staff is super friendly, and you can’t beat that view when getting your caffeine fix.The actual shop itself is also super cute with lots of local goods to pick a gift from.I always try to stop there whenever I am on the 101 as I know I will get quality coffee, great service and won’t have to wait at all.“

“This is family’s favorite coffee spot in Del Mar! The drinks are perfection! We particularly love the golden girl and matcha. My son is always asking for strawberry milk. The service is outstanding-everyone is welcoming and knowledgeable. Gemma is our favorite!“

“"Cat & Craft - Cafe" good“

“Amazing customer service and the WiFi is fast! My coffee was out quick and was made perfect! The barista Sky was very helpful when it came to my questions about sugar free and healthy options. He took the time to care for me and answer all my questions. I will be coming back soon!“

“Very cute coffee shop, all the baristas are friendly and efficient! It's in a convenient location in la costa, near Carlsbad, Encinitas, and san marcos.
My girlfriend and i love happy hour which is at 3-5pm on weekdays, and you get specialty coffee drinks 50% off and bogo 50% off.
Our favorite things to get are the torched latte, midnight mocha, and an everything bagel, where they put the cream cheese on too!“

“We live to combine a home at Annie's canyon down the street with a visit to Claire's before or after.

I joined the wait-list on Google maps as I was driving there. Checked into the hostess stand after I was able to score the last spot in their small parking lot behind the restaurant. There is plenty of parking across the street.

Service was good and we were there at noon for lunch. It was busy but there were still plenty of empty tables out on their back patio. We had a little wait for our food orders and they came out at different times.
We ordered the salmon and peach salad and the veggie sandwich. The salad was very fresh and delicious. The veggie sandwich wasn't a hit so we don't recommend that dish. High stack of fresh vegetables but tasteless.“

“philtered soul is my favorite, hot or iced!“

“Love this place the staff is beyond nice and always happy to see you and they always getvmy order right 💕💕💋“

“super friendly and the coffee was great“

“Good coffee. Really good. ♥️👍“

“I was visiting the area for a work trip and looking for coffee/ pastries to bring to the office. MUCH better than going the Panera / Starbucks route plus the added benefit of supporting local. Convenient online ordering to make your morning pickup even faster. Delicious pastries and scones from a local bakery - light and flakey. Favorite (so far!) is the white chocolate cranberry. Also on my list to try - brownies, muffins, bagels, paninis. The Acai bowl a delicious and will be part of my morning fix for breakfast when I am visiting. Quick in and out plus delicious!

Vegetarian options: high protein options

Dietary restrictions: almond or cow's milk options“

“Avocado toast yummy but needs a little something....balsamic drizzle, lime( browns quickly) especially if you are delivering to someone else. Himalayan sea salt on top. Good dirty chai! Cute vibe!“

“Excellent poached eggs, gluten free bread/biscuit💚alternative dairy choices, oatmilk & kitchen-made almond milk served warm with very tasty coffee💜excellent service with friendly staff😀pleasant, modern atmosphere😍love this place❣️highly recommend👍🏼“

“Stephanie and team were amazing! We ordered/catered multiple treats, including macarons, for our daughter’s French themed birthday party. Every item was delicious and all of the guest raved about the food! Can’t wait to visit again!“

“Really good coffee & tea creations here. if you're looking for a better option instead of the big chain coffee joints (⭐🦌) this is one of the best.“

“It provides the best coffee, which has let me realize what's the point to order Starbucks!“

“Amazing coffee spot, but beware if you're taking your laptop to work, almost every time I've gone their wifi is down. Not sure if it's just coincidence that that's happened each time to me but still a bummer. I love the views though and the coffee is delicious. Just not a great working spot.“
