“I had the pleasure of getting to hang out and chat with one of the owners, Dan, about coffee for some time, and ended up with one of the most delicious bags of beans I’ve had in a while, and a perfect iced almond matcha. Can’t wait to come back when I’m in San Diego again!“

“A serious hidden gem for all the coffee and espresso aficionados of the world. Wander over here if you want an exceptional, carefully crafted cuppa. Tucked next to the old Bookstar (now Barnes & Noble), you won’t see it from Rosecrans but it’s there. If they’re busy, be patient. It’s worth the wait. Can’t say enough good things about Acento.“

“Shell Yeah! 🐚 Im in San Diego at Trident Coffee on Mission Boulevard and it's been a phenomenal experience! From the food, the drink, the atmosphere and the staff! Sydney was an amazing representative of Tridents Coffee's core values and really went above and beyond to deliver the best possible service. She connected and greeted every customer that came in with a buzzing energy and served each and every customer with her full effort. I would highly recommend Trident Coffee on Mission Boulevard!

We really enjoyed our visit and would definitely recommend stopping by if you’re in the area.“

The staff member who was there today and helped me out was very nice, and super attentive to her service and craft. I definitely recommend this place!“

Please consider opening up a second location in the Washington, DC area!“

“We were in the area during the weekday farmers market and found ourselves in this super cute cafe to take a break.

We got their Pool Party matcha and I loved how they infused mango into a refreshing matcha drink. Bonus points that it wasn't overly sweet!

The staff was very friendly and pointed me in the right direction with their recommendations.

We had our baby with us in a stroller and it was nice that this cafe was fairly stroller-friendly. We found a spot to sit and chill in their cool stadium-style seating area.

Would return!“

“Best spot for coffee in Pacific Beach!“

“My favorite coffee ☕️. Great service 🥰“

“I want to say yes and recommend them. But I can't because I have a subscription to their coffee but they sent me the wrong coffee. it's been about a week, I've call a few times, left two voice mail messages, I've emailed as well and I have not gotten any response at all. The coffee I bought and subscribed to is good, but I can't continue to do business with a company that won't respond to their customers to fix their mistakes.“
