Visiting from Memphis, and this place was cute from the outside I had to stop and try it. The coffee was amazing, the sandwiches we ordered were great- just huge so I got full really fast. Ganon was the guy behind the counter who took out order and he was adorable in every way. Such a cute vibe here. It's probably my favorite place I have been to so far on our trip

It’s such a cute spot and the coffee is amazing. They also gave free bakeries at the end of the day 🥹🥹

Exquisite atmosphere, chill & inviting. Raspberry bran muffin was delicious & flat white was perfectly smooth.

Met up with friends here to catch up — and this place is really well suited for that. I liked that there’s plenty of space, especially outdoors: big tables, lots of seating, and enough room to comfortably gather even with a larger group. There are also quiet spots where you can work or just relax on your own.

We had coffee, but to be honest, I didn’t like it — just not my taste. Still, the overall atmosphere is nice, so it’s a good spot for friendly meetups.

Lovely coffee shop. Delicious coffee. Friendly, relaxing atmosphere. Everything I look for in a good coffee shop/cafe.

I ordered a Guatemala pour-over and 2 pastries. It was $19.76 without the tip. The blueberry bran muffin wasn't very sweet, which was good. The banana nut bread was also good. I was told that the Guatemala was a lighter roast, which was not the case at all. It was leaning more towards a dark roast and I didn't find it particularly good at all. I actually couldn't drink it. I love good coffee and good atmosphere. The atmosphere is good, but the coffee didn't match up.

An eclectically furnished coffee and breakfast spot in La Jolla. Massive amount of seating outside, great for morning coffee and people watching. Friendly staff. Lots of flavor syrups available, my vanilla latte was perfectly sweetened. Free wifi for remote workers :)

There is this guy here with kind of a Rastafarian hairstyle - cool as he'll every time. The others are kind of moody but it's worth coming here for this guy and the coffee. He is super chill. I got a Jimi Hendrix with caramel added.

FINALLY an excellent cappuccino in San Diego ? I was a barista for 8 years and this is my new favorite spot to get a coffee and read. It seems like most places here have a really sour espresso but the Flower Pot does it right! They roast their beans in-house and they really know what they’re doing. Plus all the staff is super sweet ? And it’s woman-owned ✊? AND there’s plenty of comfy seating! Come support this business!
