9 Best Cafes in San Marcos

“Caffe Caffe is a fantastic spot that truly exceeded my expectations! I had the pleasure of trying their latte macchiato and cortado, both of which were superbly crafted—rich, creamy, and bursting with flavor.

The pastries were the real highlight of my visit. The beef burek was delicious, with a perfect balance of flaky pastry and savory filling. The crème brûlée croissant was hands down the best pastry I’ve ever had—flaky, decadent, and filled with rich custard that was simply divine.

The café itself is beautifully designed, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that’s perfect for enjoying a leisurely coffee or catching up with friends. The service was excellent, with friendly staff who were attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. I can’t wait to return to indulge in more of their offerings!“

“Amazing Breakfast and coffee!!! The bacon, egg, potato and cheese burrito was fantastic!!! My wife’s salad was super fresh and delicious!! Very friendly staff!!! Will definitely come here again the next time we are in town. Close to the Welk Resorts!!!“

“I ordered the Tuna Melt and it was yummy! I love how evenly they cooked the sandwich and it’s not overly oily for my taste. The tuna tastes very fresh and I can tell the whole sandwich was made with love.

There is a bit of a wait but trust me it’s worth it!“

“This place is so good. I wouldn't necessarily hang to work or study, but the drinks are the best. My favorite is the monster boba latte. It's an iced latte worth boba, then they drizzle brown sugar molasses down the sides. The windows are a bummer, you can hardly see out of them, but I'm a window cleaner so i notice these things.“

“I've lived in San Marcos for almost 10 yrs. Never saw this place since it's away from everything and I'm not sure when they opened. Today was my first time and I can say I'm very happy with having a new coffee place to go to besides better buzz. The service is awesome. They recommended something since I wanted to taste something new but unfortunately I didn't like it but they made me a new without hesitation. We also got crepes. Boy, I love them crepes. This will be one of my top places to go for sweets from now on!“

“New location and it's nice inside. Improvement over the last location. Not a lot of seating. We got a breakfast sandwich, bagel with cream cheese and two small coffee's and it was over $22.00 and that's without table service. The bagel was nothing special and didn't give much cream cheese. Husband said his sandwich was ok but not worth the money. At least we could refill the coffee. Winco has much better bagels and bigger and more fresh. The bagel I received was the one in their display when you walk up to the counter. No clue when it was baked.

Parking: No street parking and parking lot very small.“

“I think this location takes a lot of heat because they have strict hours. However, it's largely run by college students so I totally get it. Hours aside, the coffee is fantastic, the food is good, and the space is nice.If you're around when they're open, I'd definitely recommend it!“
