“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 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.“

“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!“

“I love this place. My kiddos love the play area and I love the childcare where I get to work while they are well taken care of. I've also tried the nail service about 6 times and I keep going back because the manicure lasts me so much longer than any other. I can't say enough great things about this place. It's a slice of heaven for both moms and dads.“

“This is a delightful coffee shop, where I enjoyed a morning date with my wife. We only drank the house coffee, but the coffee hit the spot. To add to the atmosphere, Lofty Coffee played music (contemporary soft rock/ jazz). The service was kind and thoughtful, but the crew was busy. Several customers had their laptops, and they appeared to appreciate the environment. Lofty Coffee has an interesting pledge (please see photo).

Yes, I would take my wife back to Lofty Coffee for another coffee date.“

“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 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.“

“We stopped by Lofty Coffee this morning because the Turkish latte on the menu sounded interesting, and after trying their drinks and food I am very surprised that they don’t have a 5 star rating. This coffee place is for you if you love flavorful coffee that has very balanced flavors of herb/spices and isn’t super sweet and syrupy. My husband got the seasonal peppermint latte and I got the Turkish latte and both were amazing.

Their made in-house pastries are also DELICIOUS! The matcha doughnut, which was topped with crushed pistachios and dried rose petals, is a must try! We also enjoyed their orange-cranberry rosemary scone so much that we grabbed an extra to go after we devoured the first one. You really can’t beat freshly made pastries and flavorful coffee.“

“I would say 4.5. The food entrees are high priced and a hit and miss. But lots of healthy and unhealthy options, cute memorabilia and location. They have junk food, soda, an ATM but also some healthy brand items like banana chips and chickpea Puffs. Coffee bar with some breakfast and lunch entrees. The chocolate croissant was great, the regular croissant was not that great. The everything twist with cream cheese. It was fantastic as well as the blueberry muffin.“
