Really sorry that I didn't stay for breakfast this morning............I was hoping to make you my breakfast stop.............but this morning I noticed that you were at least one person short and almost a full house...........sorry I usually don't have the time to wait in a big line............if you have the time to wait the food and drinks are very good............but if you're looking for a quick grab and go spot............this one isn't it.........it can be a good hang out or date spot...........but plan to be stuck in line and wait for awhile

Nice little indie coffee shop where the locals go. Staff are friendly. Prices are mid. Gorgeous mural in the bathroom. I recommend the acai bowl.

If I could give this spot 4.5 stars I would. I’m visiting San Diego and hanging out with family in IB. This has become a go-to spot for starting my mornings. Standard coffee and breakfast fare that tastes really good.The best part is the people, both behind the counter and the other patrons. All friendly in a laid back way. Perfect for starting your day on a positive note… all while you’re still waking up.

It was ok. I can make a better breakfast sandwich at home (for the price) and the girls running the counter were not on their A game for customer service. Might have just been one of those days.
Stopped here for a light breakfast before a little beach walk. Ended up being very filled. We both got sandwiches and shared a açaí fruit bowl which was HUGE. unfortunately they were out of granola but it was still yummy and I was shocked with how much fresh fruit was in it. Nice little shop, they give a great military discount (I think 20%) which was great! Shop is small and relaxed, nothing fancy. They also accommodated some changes on both our sandwiches without any hesitation. Food came quick, yummy. Cant complain!

This is my favorite coffee shop in IB! The service is good and the coffee is even better! I get a vanilla breve and occasionally a dirty chi at least 3 times a week and it's always like sipping on heaven Their food is pretty dang good as well :) they have many options to choose from!

I got a sandwich and a chai latte, coffee wasn’t horrible but kinda hard to mess up to be honest. The sandwich tasted like it just came out of the microwave and the guacamole was bland like it came out of a bag. Service was not good either, she/they at the counter was extremely rude and not very helpful with the

Really surprised this place has 4.6 stars. To start out, the server at the register was super rude. I ordered a breakfast sandwich, açaí bowl, a dirty chai and an ice coffee. The açaí bowl was by far the worst one I’ve ever had. It had some frozen fruit and a little granola at the bottom and literally a frozen round ball of açaí on top. Couldn’t take more than 2 bites. The breakfast sandwich just had nothing to it. No spice, salt or what have you. Just super plane. No spread or sauce. You can make a better breakfast sandwich at home. Coffee tasted like butt and the chai was too spicy to drink.
