Lofty Coffee Encinitas Roasting Works

Good food, good coffee, knowledgeable and friendly staff. A bunch of bougie people go here, it is a bit pricey.

I had high expectations for this café, but my experience was average at best. The service was generally poor, and the açaí bowl I ordered was pretty disappointing. I also ordered a latte, but it wasn’t hot when it was handed to me. Overall, it just didn’t live up to what I was hoping for.

Top notch coffee shop. The barista was friendly and knowledgeable. Several varietal choices of coffee as well as different brew methods. The croissant was very fresh and the yogurt bowl was superb.
In addition everything was served by friendly servers.
I recommend Lofty and hope to return again.

Came here to have lunch, coffee and get some work done. The açaí bowl was good. However, this must be the only cafe in the world that very intentionally doesn’t have power outlets. Zero options to plug in. I’m giving 1-star because of that. Will never come here again or recommend the place to anyone. There are plenty of friendly and quality places to get coffee in the area. Funny how such a small detail can absolutely kill a place.

Airy with cafe menu standards that have a twist but still hit the mark. Note the Wi-Fi is mediocre enough to be considered unusable should you intend to accomplish Internet related work. An attitude of this is a gathering place for engagement over solo work is needed.

Hopefully they just ran out but they switched their almond Croissant with a store bought one, coffee still pretty good

Excellent teas. Love love ❤️ some gluten free things to try. However, didn't get the chance to experience the menu.
