50 Best Coffee Shops near Cardiff

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

“Rose Hill Café in Cardiff is fantastic. The coffee is excellent every time. Rich, smooth, and clearly made by people who care about the craft. You can tell they use quality beans and know how to brew them right — no bitterness, no shortcuts.

The food is just as great. Everything we’ve ordered has been fresh, well-prepared, and full of flavor. You can taste that it’s made with good ingredients and real attention to detail, not just thrown together. Portions are generous and it always hits the spot.

The café itself has a cozy, welcoming feel. Service is friendly without being overbearing, and you’re made to feel at home whether you’re grabbing a quick coffee or settling in for brunch.

If you’re in Cardiff and want a place that does both coffee and food really well, Rose Hill Café is it. Already planning our next visit.“

“I love the coffee here!! 🤤“

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

“They didn’t have much to eat besides sweets. Coffee was good. Some seating inside. It was a busy place. Okay seating outside but there were some loud people. I had to be on a meeting and I had to move tables because there were so many people and a single Loud Talker. If the outdoor seating had been better I would have stayed longer“

“Delicious fresh and hot handmade donuts! They even have Gluten free!“

“Genuinely the best latte I’ve had in a long time! Espresso was delicious and milk was steamed to perfection. It’s been over a week and I’m still thinking about that latte. Morning bun was the perfect pairing too!“

“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!“

“Just went here for the first time! I got a vanilla orange latte and it’s suuuuper good. The owners are both super nice and even gave me advice when it came to starting up my own business :) highly recommend this spot and will be back soon“

“Been here twice in the past week already and the gentleman working the counter is so nice! Got the Talavera Latte hot today and it was delicious. They also serve matcha which is nice.

Definitely recommend for anyone who is in or has business in the area. A sandwich shop is conveniently located in the same building that seems to be quite popular too.“

“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!“

“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!“

“Sasha and the entire crew at Dot Cafe are absolutely amazing, and I am so incredibly grateful for everything they did! I’d driven by Dot Cafe countless times on my way to work, always admiring that adorable outside patio, but I’d never actually been inside until I reached out to host a baby shower for our team’s new practice owner — and wow, am I glad I did!

From the very first conversation, Sasha went above and beyond. She patiently walked me through everything, sending photos of the indoor and outdoor spaces along with a menu, all while being so mindful of our budget. She even offered to decorate with fresh flowers, which was such a sweet and generous touch! The entire planning process was seamless from start to finish.“

“great coffee nice girl behind counter. and we had our own personal ghost moment !! 😉 things falling for no reason“

“An amazing roaster with a great selection of baked goods. Highly recommend the Cortado, chocolatey, smooth and made by an excellent staff! We always look forward to our visit! Excellent coffee“

“I work in the area and love walking over during breaks to get coffee, snacks, or their AMAZING paninis! The owner is incredibly sweet and is always happy to customize your drinks to your liking. She’s also always tinkering with new menu items, and I was lucky enough to stop by at the right time and try some experiments :) yum!“

“I drove past this place a million times thinking it was the cutest and finally looked up what it was and saw it was a non tox nail place! I rarely get my nails done because it’s never worth it but OMG!!!!! This place is unlike anything I’ve experienced. Sherlyn was incredibly meticulous and precise. My nails have never looked so good. They were my engagement nails as well which is very special. They also gave me a free coffee for next time since I came in for a special occasion. I got the gel structured and it’s been almost a week and I still see no flaws. The front desk girl was also so so kind and genuinely excited for me. Thank you Lullabar!!!!“

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

“Good breakfast and coffee“

“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“

“The best coffee I’ve had in a long time!! I had an oat milk cinnamon latte and we tried some Mexican pastries! So delicious!!“

“I've been on the hunt for a local roaster all up and down San Diego county, and this little place just a couple miles away from me managed to slip under my radar until today, well, two weeks ago, but I went again today to stock up on beans, so I'm writing a review now. The gentleman running the establishment has conducted some serious scholarship about coffee, and that I knew I found the right roaster within moments of the initial greeting. This place rocks, I'll be getting my beans here from now on. The Koi pond is cool too“

“I loved the cozy design of the cafe, very unique. The food is great I tried both Avocado Toast and the lentil soup both exceeded expectations. The latte was super tasty - just ask for extra-hot beverage because for some reason (liability, etc?) they don’t make the beverages too hot. Love the food, place, and the service (polite employees).“

“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 ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Loved their lattes! Quick service and great food“

“We arrived at 9:30 and were seated in the patio right away. It was a beautiful morning perfect for eating outside. Plenty of shade so it was very comfortable. My quinoa Benedict was delicious, my wife enjoyed her avocado toast (superb). We love coming to Claire’s.“

“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 have had several treats from this cafe and, without exception, they have all been superb! Obviously made from the finest ingredients and always fresh. The team leader, Stephanie, is such a delight and is so thoughtful and kind. Thanks for the delicious goodies!“

“Great coffee and convenient. Always pleasant staff. ☕️🌈“

“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.“

“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.“

“It is a fun place to be! variety of foods available.“

“My husband, daughter and I stumbled upon this coffee shop one morning while taking a stroll. The barista working was as sweet as pie. She made my toddlers day! She created a strawberry sprinkle drink for my three year old, helped me curate a low caffeine drink for myself and made my husband a delicious iced americano! Coffee was great! Drinks were great! Almond croissant was amazing! Service was impeccable. Must stop by when you’re at the Del Mar Plaza!“

“The gelato was just like what we had in Florence,Italy!“

“This place serves the best iced caramel macchiato I’ve ever had! The staff are always kind and welcoming, and the atmosphere is perfect for relaxing or catching up with friends. All their beverages and pastries are absolutely delicious — highly recommend!“

“I love this place! You can stop by and get everything always with all the attention of the employees and taste the best things 😋♥️“

“Coffee and food were delicious! My wife's chai latte wasn't quite up to her standards but they happily made her a different drink. Great vibes and amazing customer service. And the salmon toast was honestly one of the best dishes we had on our trip. Highly recommend.“

“Something just very special its a vibe and you can feel.it as soon as you get in line .Best Macha by far and the most fresh pastry you can find .Cheers to the owner its a truly great find and we go often. I hear they have another location in lj village on girard. We cant wait to visit them.“

“A very cozy place! The coffee is sometimes delicious—it probably depends on the barista; I wish every barista working for the company were properly qualified. I ordered one shot of espresso and two shots of water online, but when I received the order, the 300ml cup was completely full. I pointed out that I had asked for only half a cup, but the barista simply poured out half of it instead of remaking the drink. It doesn't take a genius to realize that pouring out half the cup means the coffee concentration won't be what I asked for.“

“I love getting my coffee from here at the staff is extremely kind and the coffee is amazing. They also have a very variety of food for breakfast even some desserts as well“

“I always make a stop here whenever I'm in Carlsbad! The coffee is excellent, and the sandwiches are always fresh and delicious.

The girls working there are amazing—so sweet, welcoming, and helpful every time I visit. They truly make you feel welcome.

The cafe is very clean, beautifully decorated, and has such a cute, relaxing atmosphere. It's the perfect spot to enjoy a coffee and unwind.

Highly recommend if you're in the area! ☕💕“

“Came in later in the evening and had the best service ever. Such great recommendations from John, Jae and Lily!!! We aren't from the area and they were so kind! Also first time having Better Buzz, will definitely stop by again before we leave the area“

“Everything is CLEAN AND ORGANIC!!!“
