The owner is an incredible chef and he brings his culinary instincts to this cafe to make unique and tasty coffee drinks. A real treat.

This place is consistently good. The cookies they sell there are good. I'm happy I found a coffee shop close to my house that isn't a chain. 5 stars for house made syrups. Cafe de olla is aromatic and tasty.

This place is awesome. I picked up a hot Noisette which had hazelnut syrup, nutmeg and clove. The milk was steamed to the right temperature and it was not too sweet. Service was quick, friendly and welcoming. The place is tiny, dark and eclectic. I sat in one of the lounge chairs which was comfortable and relaxing. I drove by two Starbucks in National City to come here and it was worth driving the extra two to three miles to get here. The only downside was no public restroom.

What a cool place! The shop itself has so much to look at and such a cool vibe. The coffee was VERY good and we have been back a few times since. Service was very friendly, quick, and helpful. We loved it!

Delicious coffee drinks and handmade baked goods. Check out the stan of Anthony Bourdain in all aspects of this charming spot.

This is a great little hidden coffee shop on the outskirts of the community of Paradise Hills. The gentleman who runs the coffee shop is very friendly and welcoming, and his wife is a terrific baker and owner of D Sweets D.That being said, I had a cortado and oat, raisins, cranberries, and walnut D Sweets D cookie. Both cost $4. The cortado was robust yet smooth and rich. It was well balanced and delicious. The cookie I paired with it was amazing. So much so that I told the owner to make sure he gives his wife a big hug the next time he sees her.The coffee shop offers an eclectic collection of furniture and decorations. They offer inside and outside seating. I can see how this place is a neighborhood favorite. When in the area, you know what to do.

First time here and had a dirty chai. Their dirty chai is made with a steeped tea bag, which is not my favorite. Felt a little overpriced for what I got, but okay overall.
A nice surprise to find this place.Visually stimulating from the moment you enter. I like that these cafes are not limited to good coffee but also create a cool and attractive atmosphere, just visiting is an experience.My favorites are Bourdain and Zapata punk.For coffee I ordered what was recommended by other reviewers, the Hot Cream Pot, it was delicious. I'll have to come back later at night to see the place at night and try different cafes.

Love the place. Coffee is delicious, a lot better than Starbucks and the set up is great. They have tables outside and a small space to seat inside

One of my favorite spots to go to in National City. Always recommend it to my family and friends. Delicious drinks and baked goods! Especially enjoy the matcha, the macarons, and the hot sandwiches when they're available. I love how community based everything is, the donation box for Christmas and all the neat events done to gather people! Vendors, live music outside sometimes, etc. The space itself is filled with artwork (zines, the graphic art stickers on the cups, the mural, etc.) and there's cool decor everywhere, some I believe were even donated from the people in the neighborhood! A lovely gem of a place and the family who run it are such nice people :)
