“e well, she is a managers. They’re very friendly and outspoken and really nice people. 😊“

“I had an absolutely delicious iced matcha latte at Blue Mug yesterday. The matcha flavor was superb and it was perfect for the heat wave. The bathroom was clean, and the staff was friendly. It was very nice inside and a great place to grab coffee, a pastry, or a sandwich. I cannot wait to go back.“

“I ordered a Vanilla Bean Latte and an almond croissant. They taste great, a little sweet.

I wish they close a bit later. 2pm feels too early to close. Very good ambiance and very friendly staff.

A lot of seating space and good place to work.“

“Best coffee in San Diego!“

“I told the blonde young lady that it was my first time going there and she really hooked me up she was very friendly and also were the rest of the co-workers and they made me one of the best drinks I've had in a long time she made my day by being so kind and making good drinks“

“Best local coffee! The lovely aroma of freshly roasted coffee is heavenly!“

“Best Gelato I have ever had!“

“If you’re looking for a cozy spot in Escondido with a laid-back vibe and great service, Kettle Coffee and Tea is the place to be. The atmosphere is super casual, making it perfect for hanging out or getting some work done. The staff is friendly and quick, which is always a plus. Their sandwiches are delicious! I had a BLT that they customized for me by adding sprouts, spinach, and cheese. I even added extra bacon—because, really, who doesn’t love more bacon? The sandwiches are always on point here. I did have a funny little mix-up during my visit. I went to the counter to check on my regular drip coffee with three shots of espresso (I love my coffee strong!) and the lady said, “Here’s your BLT!” Confused, I replied, “I’m already eating one but it wasn’t the one I had ordered but that’s ok because I was hungry.” Turns out they printed my ticket twice. I offered to pay for the extra sandwich, but they insisted it was on the house. I ended up giving the extra BLT to one of our local homeless residents, which felt good. Overall, Kettle Coffee and Tea is a fantastic spot with yummy food and a welcoming staff. Definitely recommend!“

“I recently had a fundraising event and Sunny Side was such a great choice for catering. After I sent an email, I got a call back and we walked through the order and right sized it. The guests really enjoyed an artichoke quiche, strawberry chicken salad and three types of mini cookies. Everyone raved about the food. It was all packaged up to be easy to serve. I would highly recommend working with Sunny Side on your next catering need!“

“The staff here is amazing! I received a Blondie on Veterans Day and it was absolutely delicious. The two ladies working were so kind and had such joyful energy. As a disabled veteran on a tight budget, your generosity truly meant a lot. Great Coffee and Wonderful customer service!“

“Incredible folks out here at James. Really a locals-only gem in Escondido. Pastries can't be beat; the cortado gives me hope. ☕️🥐“

“As someone with a soy and sesame allergy, it’s hard to find places to eat that can accommodate. Elmisa Cafe easily accommodated my allergens- their bread comes certified soy and sesame free from the baker- and their ingredients are fresh! Try the Rula, you won’t regret it!“

“I went to O’Brien’s for the first time today. My Mother-in-law highly recommended the restaurant so I could meet my friend. The food was delicious. The service was great- Thank You Sarah and team. I am so excited to try the different types of breads and pastries. O’ Brien’s is known for their delicious breads, especially sour dough. If you are in the San Diego area, differently check out this restaurant! Sit down and relax with your favorite cup of coffee or tea with a sweet pastry, great bread or something from their delicious menu.“

“Cute little place“

“Friendly people, quick service, good coffee, just okay matcha.
But it’s a good place to grab a quick drink or bite at the mall. There’s a decent seating area and everything is always clean and well-stocked. Prices high but again, it’s the mall.“

“I'm usually really scared to try Taro Milk Tea at boba places outside of my local ones, but this one was really great!!! The person who served me, Alexa, was also really nice and sweet, and was also really patient when I was hesitating on what to order lol. I hope to come back again whenever I'm in the area!!“

“I ordered an omelet with ground beef. It's enough for two breakfasts. I would season the ground beef, but theirs was plain. I enjoyed it with mushrooms and onions. I asked for no cheese and add green chilies. The egg was perfectly cooked. It came as ordered. I would go back for the exceptional service and well made food.“

“Good store. Missing some refuse containers outside the NEW building.“

“I LOVE ME SOME DUTCH BROS!!!!! Peeps are amazingly AWESOME!!!!

“Verdaderamente buenisimos....“

“Josh and the whole crew are great. It was Halloween and we got a good laugh. When the whole crew is there they rock. Some people would say only coffee. Its more than venri“

“Little hole in the wall deli I found on Google maps. Ordered a pastrami sandwich and was surprised with a bacon turkey club when I got back to my office. Was going to get upset until I took a bite and was amazed on how good the wrong sandwich tasted! I look forward to actually getting a pastrami next time to see how good that is! Good job ladies! You know how to make a mean sandwich!“

“Took Tulla for her first Pup Cup! Service was great at drive through!“
