17 Best Coffee Shops in Vista

“Dang! This coffee is good. Tried a latte, espresso, and a slice of sourdough with natural peanut butter, sliced banana, and honey drizzle. It was all delicious. Rich bold coffee flavor. There is only one size for hot drinks and one size for cold drinks - which i think makes this place even better. There were a few places to sit and enjoy your coffee. Folks inside are very nice and helpful.“

“Literally ordered coffee 3 days in a row from El Kafecito. I was in Escondido visiting family and one of the things I enjoy doing is trying little coffee shops in the general area and one look at El Kafecito's menu and I was SOLD! I tried the horchata late which was delicious but not mind blowing... It reminded me of a vanilla latte. I'm not usually a mocha girl but their iced Mexican mocha was tasty! The winner for me was the dulce de leche latte. Oh my gosh. I am partial to caramel coffee flavors so I'm not surprised I loved it. All in all I wish I had an El Kafecito in my hometown, I feel like I'm already going through withdrawals lol. Beats out any big brand coffee company by far. Please give this wonderful place your business. You won't regret it!“

“I was visiting for the weekend and was recommended to try Better Buzz Coffee by several people and I am happy to say that I was pleasantly surprised. I'm not usually a huge coffee drinker but I'm happy to say that Better Buzz Coffee was the perfect addition to my day. My friend and I ordered the Snickerdoodle Latte and the Chai Tea Latte and they were some of the best drinks we've had in a while. The service was excellent and the staff was very helpful with their recommendations when asked. I plan on making a return visit in the future!“

“"Cat & Craft - Cafe" good“

“A hidden gem for ☕ coffee in Vista Village!! Warm greeting from Barista & they have great coffee for those that appreciate a high quality cup of coffee!! Mostly expresso drinks, not a hugh menu but quality over quantity Is evident since they roast their own beans!! Cozy place to sit indoors w/ games & books. They offer a rewards program too👍!! My new fav spot!!🥰“

“I've come here many times and received stellar service. I came one day and Elias was exceptionally professional. His enthusiasm, knowledge, and skill helped solve a tall, complex order for me and my family. His service was so awesome I just had to write a review so that his excellence may be properly recognized. I will definitely be returning.“

“Skybound Coffee – Best Boba + Pastries(probably…yet to try) in Town

Skybound Coffee is hands-down the best (and cheapest!) place for boba in town. I grabbed three boba teas for under $25, which is almost unheard of. The Thai Tea boba was absolutely delicious—perfect sweetness, great texture, super refreshing.

They also have an amazing selection of pastries, including some really beautiful, elevated French-style creations that I’m excited to try on my next visit. The overall vibe is warm, welcoming, and high-quality without the high price tag.

If you love good boba, great coffee, or standout pastries, Skybound Coffee is a must-try.“

“Best coffee in town. I order every day when I come home!!“

“Great service.“

“My friend and I have been here several times and for the most part like it. My only pick at is the potatoes either hash browns or home fries. Both of which are considered a breakfast staple. First, the hash browns… they are too soft and no flavor. Like they are boiled first. Not sure, but there’s a certain expectation with hash browns, like crispy on the outside and just done on the inside. Asking for extra crispy still doesn’t do it.
Okay, for the home fries, they are always usually precooked. That’s fine, but these are boiled not baked which makes them too watery… yes it’s a thing. And the pieces are way too big, not crispy at all and no flavor again. So eating them isn’t pleasant especially when having to use ketchup. In my opinion should never happen with a good home fry. All home fries should be fried with some oil, crispy on at least two sides and nicely bite sized with bell pepper and onion. The flavor bursts. I love potatoes and hope this post helps with making them better. Otherwise, we always loved the atmosphere, most of the food, and coffee is decent.“

“MY Starbucks!!! The baristas are wonderful! Tasty drinks (and food), friendly and quick service make this my preferred Starbucks! It is a PLEASURE to come here. A stop at this Starbucks has become a pleasant addition to my morning routine! Thanks to you all!“

“Absolutely loved the service I had tonight from Dakota ❤️. You really made me smile 😊“

“Very friendly and helpful!“

“This place right down the street from my home. I have been going here for years now & will continue to do so. Everyone is very friendly & the donuts are delicious. Yesterday my husband and I stopped by at noon to pick up 3 dozens of donuts to take to our cousins viewing in Tj. We told this to the lady helping us, then she said "wait, let me give you something!" And she gave us 1 dozen donuts for FREE! Her kindness just brought joy to my heart & we thank her for her beautiful action. You all have a blessed weekend.“

“Order: venti dark roast black & venti cup of ice The young lady in the drive through offers me an extra pastry that was an error. She said...thank you for being so nice to me when I asked you to repeat your order! Most are not... That blew me away! Why on gods green earth would anyone be mean to anyone in service industry.“

“You guys ROCK! Very helpful and friendly staff. Going out of their way to help a customer in need. You guys are wonderful! Thanks a million! 😀😎😊“
