Wonderful atmosphere with skylights and natural lighting, superb coffee and desserts, amazing crêpes, reasonably priced, friendly and efficient service. Crêpes are served on sushi roll plates and are filling and delicious. We tried both the chicken pesto (with fresh basil leaves inside as well - a nice touch) and turkey crêpes, and the Mexican mocha made with fresh ground Mexican chocolate. The Turmeric Latte was also excellent as was the cappuccino, all made with their own blended Screaming Goat coffee. And, there is a dessert case to die for with a huge variety of exquisitely presented treats. Staff were friendly, extremely efficient and communicative.There are three different separate spaces to sit: the main dining area near the bar, a narrow side nook, and a back open air porch away from the street. There is a very comfortable sofa, and quite wonderfully and whimsically, one of the tables has a swing :-) And, it's all wonderfully clean and airy.

This place is awesome. This is a Espresso, gelato. Coffee bar. The place is small with tables on the inside and out. Or you can sit in the courtyard and just relax and enjoy your drink. They serve crepes. There are open face sandwiches as well. We had an Afrogato and a open faced sandwich with arugula and egg.This was our second visit and we are looking forward to our third.

Great option, I love crepes so I got here and I totally loved it, expressos are amazing too.Highly recommended!

Nice staff, but if you are going to charge me $9.75 for AVOCADO TOAST! I expect there to more than a smear or avocado on the thick cut dry multi grain bread. It also says feta cheese in the description, the cheese I got is like mozzarella or something?? Ummm I just want what is described to me. I have been to this location plenty of times and have never had a problem before, the ratio of avocado to bread was more reasonable!!

Great coffee (get a pour over! It's worth the wait and they know how to do it properly) and delicious breakfast sandwiches. The service is always fast and friendly.

They have some of the best croissants I've ever had but the only thing I really don't like is they never open at the time they're supposed to open

Another local roastery popping up in San Diego! Prices are comparable to blue bottle. Coffee isn't burnt at all and is really smooth. I love the space too, it's so open and full of light.
