100% recommendation! For me, THE INVIGATORIUM serves the best coffee in downtown San Diego, and the breakfast options on the creative menu are also delicious. The quality has been top notch for years and the prices are reasonable! The team behind the bar(s) and the kitchen crew are extremely friendly. I love the concept of the place "changing" from a coffee spot to a cocktail bar in the afternoon. I'm sure you'll be taking pics of the interior!

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Food,service, quality, and ambience are A+. Staff is super friendly and helpful. We stopped by for coffee and ended ordering food. Totally worth it! My son got the breakfast sandwich. He ate it so fast! It was delicious. Wife and I shared the muffuletta. We couldn’t put it down. It was so good! Breading was so hard on the outside but soft and fluffy in the inside. The spread inside was so good. Everything had great flavor. I ordered the Americano and my wife got the lavender vanilla matcha. We decided to sit outside cuz the weather was perfect! They also have indoor seating with a bar inside. Definitely a spot to hit up! We will definitely be back!

It’s bold, it’s different, it’s fun! The Invigatorium is a fun clash of aesthetics, from dino decor, to a mish mash of patterned chairs and tables, to the random ronald mcdonald statue. Similar to it’s decor, the shop itself has a wide variety to offer, from coffee, to alcohol, to food as well!
Alas, my friend and I were only here to get breakfast (and not alcohol), but we enjoyed what we got! I ordered the poached eggs, which were just runny enough and had a nice chili oil crunch that really brought the dish together. It also came with some perfectly toasted bread to munch on. My friend got the vegan breakfast sandwich, which she said was also tasty!
I also got a lavender iced latte which hit the spot.
If you’re looking for a unique place to grab a bite, definitely check this place out!

Food is great! Healthy, not sweet at all. I had the Breakfast Sandwich and the Strawberry Toast and they were both fresh and healthy. Perfect portion. Beautiful vibe with outside seating. Recommend for sure if you are in the area!

This place is awesome! Coffee and tea are fresh and super reasonably priced. A very interesting decor and great vibe. I did not order and food but it looked great. At 3PM, this place turns into a full bar until 10PM (under the name J & Tony’s).
Want a huge bonus for coming here for coffee? They have a super-automated toilet (Toto Washlet) that I haven’t experienced since Japan! Heated seat, bidet with heated water, and a drying fan. Perfect for the post-coffee #2!
The baristas and servers were all super nice and the food was delicious!
We got the chia pudding and the avocado toast. Their kitchen closes at 2 so the full food menu isn't available.
Whoever decided to make a dinosaur themed cafe is a genius ?

This place is incredible. The coffees were delicious. We got a cardamom cortado and a honey cinnamon latte. Both of which were delicious! The only con I would say is that there is no skim milk. Only oat and whole are offered. Regardless, the coffees were delicious!! We also ordered poached eggs and breakfast sandwiches. Though not pictured, they were delicious. The ambience is quirky but definitely interesting, fun, and unique!

A delightful spot that offers a wide range of breakfast options and amazing coffee. Their espresso is perfect on acidity and bold. My favorite! And well, do I really have to mention how decorative this ambiance is? Super swaggy and fun place
