A cool little cafe at UCSD. There's enough room and the coffee does the trick. I will say the view is not as great as some others think it is (blocked by lots of trees and there's a road in between. Still, if you're in the area it's a good place to get coffee.

Excellent local coffee kiosk with good coffee and pretty good food. It's nothing original, but it does what it does do with amazing proficiency.Parking: It is La Jolla, be mindful of where you park and the time limits associated. Street parking for 30 minutes is nearby.Dietary restrictions: Has a plethora of milk alternative options.

Its a small stall near la Jolla cove. We ordered a double cupuccino and it was super milky. The coffee beans they use are not great. We had to throw the coffee.

Pinpoint cafe has been my go to coffee place in the village for several years for their excellent coffee. The baristas are also awesome. My dog loves them too, and not just for the treats.

I come to pinpoint every day for coffee and breakfast. I liked it so much that I ended up bringing my coworkers from the job site and now they too are regulars. The food and coffee are really good, but I think what keeps us coming back is the customer service and they way the girls who works there take the time to get to know you and remember your order.

Caitlin and Isa are wonderful and definitely make a cup of coffee that's worth waiting for. They do such a great job that the regulars always come by around the same times and they are always friendly enough to chat and make you feel like you're a regular in no time. Definitely my go to for coffee in la jolla as they make the mexican mocha better than every other place I've been to in san diego. Worth the wait, prices are pretty good too

Small kiosk that serves up coffee staples (flat white, latte, etc) with some baked goods. Peep their hours before heading over as they close early. They have lots of outdoor seating to enjoy your coffee. If you're an early riser, this place is perfect to just grab good coffee with no frills. The person who made our drink was super kind. She asked if we wanted sugar in our flat white because they brew strong coffee. She wasn't kidding! The flat white was delicious. Definitely strong but not bitter at all. They do have oat milk which was not burned. Will be pack when I'm in the area for my caffeine pick me up!

We came here for an açai bowl and were pleasantly surprised! The food was fresh and well put together. There was a little place to eat right there, so we enjoyed our food at the picnic table. The person was very friendly and was even tolerant of rowdy children who needed a smoothie (which they enjoyed). By sitting there we could tell most people coming up for food/drinks were regulars, which is always a great sign.

Awesome shop to stop by before work. The employees are always friendly, and there's rarely a wait.

Basically obsessed with this coffee stand. I love how unassuming they are tucked away looking like a coffee cart, but their little custom touches with homemade granola, homemade snacks and eats, and great service really sets Pinpoint Cafe apart. There are several cafes in downtown La Jolla. But I find myself looking forward to coming here the most. Lucky me I work very close to here!
