It seems this place is hit or miss, but the time I went to it was definitely a mess. I ordered a chai tea latte and it came out both lukewarm and with entirely too much milk and no chai taste. For a $6 drink, I'm not going back for a second chance.

I ordered a blueberry muffin and they took 20 minutes to pull it out of the case up front and give it to me despite fully serving 5+ customers ahead of me and perfectly remembering the "regulars" order ahead of me who was also served first and left before me, despite me showing up with one customer ahead of me. 20 minutes for a blueberry muffin that they didn't even warm up is pretty insulting. I should also add the workers with the exception of one guy, RARELY smile like they are eternally trapped in there to work forever and they know it so they act like it.

Some of the worst coffee I’ve ever had. The girl working seemed like she did not care at all and was irritated we were there. Then gave us most watered down drinks with burnt espresso. I am not one to leave reviews especially after working in the coffee business for a long time (I know it’s hard work) but this was so disappointing. We spent $40 just to literally not be able to drink our coffee.

Staff is friendly, service is fast, and they have a nice seating area next to the sidewalk, but the coffee is terrible. Over-roasted, far too acidic for my taste. Ordered an Americano, it was so sour I couldn't even finish it.

Killer acai bowls. Part of the reason why we drive down to San Diego from the San Jose area. Best acai bowls I've had to date.

Came to this drive thru to try some coffee, my favorite part is that you can park at the target and sit outside or you can just pull up with your car. The baristas were nice and helpful. The drinks we got were a bit slow to come out, which is something you should consider coming here, despite the drive thru (greater than 10min for 2 drinks). Also the drinks we got were pretty sweet so make sure you ask for less sugar if you don't want it to be too sweet. The outdoor seating is cute and not a bad first date spot if the weather is nice!

I love their acai bowls. Friendly, conveniently by the neighborhood target, and they accept Apple Pay!

super cool spot and friendly staff. I do have to raise a painful issue however. It seems that the previously made to order acai, with fresh fruit etc. has now gone to a pre-packaged and semi-frozen version, which causes the fruit and granola to become mushy. That fresh healthy taste just isnt the same. Maybe it is a matter of convenience, but I am leaning toward taking my acai business elsewhere to get made to order bowls.

Great little local spot to get Acai bowls in South Park. They have a few different ones to choose. I went with the Unicorn Pitaya bowl. Fruit was fresh and portions were perfect. I was able to mix the fruit and get some fruit in every bite. The coconut topping had a little crunch to it and was great for adding texture. The only food I would not try are the muffins/pastries sitting in clear container on counter. They looked very dried out and unappetizing. They have outside seating but it's right next to the road and not my favorite place to eat outside so I take my order to go.

Great mini coffee spot in South Park. After you get your groceries done pop over to get a quick açaí bowl or coffee. A bit overpriced for coffee but to be expected in this area. Support local

This is a great local place to try. I love this place. Small and cozy. There is a table to sit or drive thru which is perfect. The waitress are so nice.I for the ice lavender latte is very good. Açaí bowl is also good and it's bigger than other place. Great place to try

First time at this location of Suberranean Coffee today and it was super cute. Love the little yellow building and the fact that they have drive thru and walk up here. Plenty of outdoor seating on both sides.We ordered two Iced Brown Sugar Latte's on this visit and both of us absolutely loved them. They come with brown sugar and cinnamon and weren't overly sweet at all. Extremely easy to drink and we would definitely recommend them. We also saw someone walk away with an amazing looking Açaí Bowl. We will be back to try one of those when we haven’t already had breakfast.There were two super kind employees working and they seemed a bit backed up on orders when we arrived but apologized for the long wait once the drinks were ready. The long wait was really the only reason for 4 vs 5 stars because the drinks were amazing.

Cute spot in a little hur. You can drive up if you want or sit and enjoy in the chairs and tables outside. Really nice peeps working here and the coffee is delicious. I had the Coconut Explosion and it was nutty and helped quench my coconut craving. Hubs had the Chocolate Hazelnut Mocha and said it was the best he's ever had. Definitely drop by and grab something if you're nearby.
