My favorite local coffee shop. The guy with the glasses in the back is always doing his laboratory experimentation wizardry to roast the perfect bean. They cycle different roasts every few days and there’s always a specialty roast available. I always look forward to going in there and seeing what roast is available. Today’s was a Costa Rican and it was delicious. The workers at this coffee shop are all kind. My espresso machine has been down this summer so I’ve...read full review
This is the best speciality shop in San Diego. You can tell they really want to serve you a great cup of coffee. A couple of espresso options and pour over options. The pour overs are at a fair price too. Definitely would recommend coming by here. The coffee in San Diego is all about the same but this shop is too notch. A little small on space but I’ve definitely seen way smaller. The key is they are making a great coffee.
Absolutely loved the coffee here. I got a pour over with the Burundi beans because I like light roast coffee and it tasted really good! Sitting spots are limited, but got lucky with a table which is great. Staff are friendly and would highly recommend

Coffee & Tea Collective is a cozy spot for a quick bite and a great drink, just a short walk from nearby residential areas. The friendly staff provides excellent service, and the menu offers a variety of drinks made to order by skilled baristas. Customers can try delicious lattes, such as the black salted caramel or strawberry chai tea latte, paired with a pastry to go. The space is small and minimalistic, creating a calming and soothing ambiance. The menu is short, featuring flavorful pastries like ham and cheese croissants, and some unique drinks like the orange cinnamon latte. Customers have praised the great quality of the coffee, especially the americanos and vanilla lattes, and the friendly, cozy atmosphere. However, the atmosphere can sometimes feel warm and stuffy since there is no AC, and loud music can make conversations difficult. The café opens late at 7:30 am and closes early, which can be inconvenient for those heading to work during rush hour. Limited seating and parking options, including paid parking on the main street and free nearby spots, make it worth a short walk to enjoy some of the best coffee in San Diego. Overall, it’s a great place to get a quick coffee, enjoy some quiet time, or work in a cozy environment.
