Went on Mother's Day a little after 1:00 pm and I did not expect it to be as busy as it was…read more Located in Bressi Ranch by Sprouts and other small businesses, parking wasn't difficult. Walking up there was a bit of a line but it was moving at a fair pace. It gave us the opportunity to really read the menu above the register well. There's both outdoor and indoor seating. And both areas were pretty full with a bustling vibe. There were specialty drinks so I wanted to try the Pistachio latte but they were out so we ended up trying the Left Coast latte, Vanilla Bean latte, a plain bagel and Lil Dippers. The lattes were wonderful. Smooth and tasty. The Lil Dippers (mini burritos) were pretty substantial and the plain bagel surprisingly was the best we've ever had at any coffee place. SO good! Great taste and perfect texture. It was unfortunate though that the cream cheese cup that comes with it didn't suffice. It wasn't at all enough for a good ratio. And to think that at one point my bagel was forgotten by the employees. I would've missed out! Overall, we're so glad we went, it was worth it!

Definitely a fantastic place to grab a coffee. The staff is SUPER friendly. The vibe is so fun. The…read morecoffee is delicious, better than Starbucks, Black Rock & Better Buzz.

Solid coffee spot. Favorites are Iced Vanilla Latte and Hot LaVa (Lavender Vanilla). Another…read morego-to is the Sea Salt Iced Coffee. I order that when I want my coffee to be more of a sweet treat. Talitha Coffee is their brand of choice. I prefer to order in person instead of mobile. Their platform isn't for me. It feels cumbersome to navigate. At the register, I always make sure to check in to get Cash App stars and have used the 15% off reward (3 Stars) on numerous occasions. Skybound offer desserts too. It's in their name! Instead of ordering one from the restaurant, we'll stop by on the way home. Selection varies but there's always something that satisfies our sweet tooth. Skybound is perfect for a coffee meetup or dessert date. Plenty of parking. There are few outdoor tables if you want the al fresco experience. I've been a patron for over 10 years. They have been the only small business coffee spot in the area. Glad to support and have them in the neighborhood.

Unfortunately they don't have butter croissants. Chocolate croissants were meh!! Very chewy. Also, almost all bakery items were sweet (chocolate/almond croissants), pastries, tarts, cake slices etc. only item that I noticed which wasn't sweet was the bagel with cheese cream. I Would love to see a few more non-sweet items.

This is a different location for Pannikin as it is a lot smaller than their other locations, but it…read moreis very calm and inviting. Definitely a great space to work, study, meet up with a few friends or family. A few tables inside and outside for seating options. This is probably the easiest location to find parking though! The barista we recently experienced was kind but definitely needed help as it was just her taking orders and making drinks. It did take a while to get everything made and we even had to give our order multiple times for each item for her to process it in their POS system. If it was busier it would have been an even longer wait, thank goodness it was just us. I love the Jimi Hendrix as my usual, but I decided to switch it up once I saw they had brown sugar spice latte on their seasonal menu. It was as delicious as expected. Not as strong as the Jimi Hendrix, but just as flavorful. My husband has his regular latte and loved it as usual. We just love their specific coffee for espresso. Their baked goods here are as lovely as other locations. Everything is made in house too. I love their variety of options, especially their vegan/gluten free options. Something for everyone! I had the raspberry gluten free muffin and my husband had the jalapeño cheddar cheese croissant. Couldn't even tell the muffin was gluten free it was SO moist! I was lucky to get a bite of the croissant before my husband devoured it all. Definitely made in house and a real layered croissant. Love their theme at this location too due to being close to the Carlsbad McClellan-Palomar airport!

Excited that we found a Pannikin nearer to us in Carlsbad so we had to check it out…read more Located in a business park, it was a bit difficult to find but when we did, we saw that it was located right next door to the famous Prager Brothers bakery. It's a very small but cute place, a miniature of the bigger Pannikin off Highway 101 in Encinitas. There's a couple of small tables on its patio and more inside. It's a great place to meet a friend or two for coffee. I went 2 days in a row, Friday afternoon and mid-morning on Saturday and both times weren't busy at all. The baristas are warm & friendly, and gave us a choice of using ceramic cups and/or plates if dining in or to-go containers. Their coffee is one of the best around and they sell their coffee beans here. They also have various baked goods they make on site which I was excited for, because their scones are my absolute favorite, especially the raspberry. So happy to have found this place and recommended it to family and friends. We'll definitely be back!

I also have to mention their croissants, which are excellent. I love all of their locations. The Carlsbad spot has a slightly more extensive menu -- especially with the pizzas -- but the Encinitas location is just as good and always worth the stop. My personal favorites are the ham and gruyère baguette and the Pizza Florentine, and their cookies are dangerously good. And if you're a coffee person, you'll be happy here -- their espressos, lattes, and cappuccinos are consistently great. It's simply a gem of a local spot for really good bread, coffee, and casual bites.

This is such an amazing place! I was looking for a delicious bread for a long time and finally I…read morefound this place. The bread is fresh, tasty, simple, no preservatives. Great variety, stores well in the freezer. The viennoiseries are a combination of classic and unique, and amazing: you have to try their fig bar! Do not try their almond and chocolate croissant though, please. Otherwise they will ran out and I won't be able to get mine. I compared their regular butter croissant with other "French" ones, and this one wins by a huge margin: airy, fluffy, just enough sweetness. They recently expanded in their main location, now you can get a sandwich, coffee and pizza. They also collaborate with other local vendors and you can find some unique items in their fridge. The vibe is so cool too. Friendly, chill, California style. Highly recommend this place, or their other locations.

Okay, I saw this listing and it looked like something I really wanted to try and after doing so I…read morewish I had went back to the place I hit a couple months ago. So, we get there and see a pretty good and see a steady line coming out the door, okay cool. However in what we tried it's just an okay spot. I would say they have a great business model and have cool merch and crazy cool art and stuff but the drinks weren't anything special like what we expected. My wife got the matcha latte with honey and it was not well made. Seems like they feel more is better when it comes to putting matcha in the drink. More is not better. It just makes the matcha taste like grass. Ground powdered matcha is basically a concentrate and needs to be treated that way. Had my review been just on her drink it would be a one star. Her drink is exactly why a lot of people say matcha is not good. A well made matcha should be delicious. I got a vanilla latte and it was just okay. Tasted fine but wasn't anything that would have me wanted to come back for more. I do have to give it to them for the latte artwork as they do great on that. But the drink was just okay. We also got an heirloom blueberry and corn scone which was good but the corn makes it a bit gritty like corn bread, which I like although it could throw someone off if they are not expecting it. The other pastries all looked pretty good and we saw some breakfast sandwiches coming out that did look good too.

We ordered a latte, a matcha latte with oat milk, and a chocolate croissant. Milk texture and temperature were right on point for both drinks! Nice strong coffee flavor in the latte. My husband thought the latte was a tiny bit runny/watery (if that makes sense) but I thought it was fine. I'm not an oat milk drinker, but I enjoyed the flavor of the oat milk. The tiny downside is that the oat milk kinda overpowers the matcha flavor. It was a nice smooth drink. We also ordered a chocolate croissant and it was good too. I was happily surprised to find this coffee shop and will definitely go back and even get coffee beans there.

Entering: Never greeted let alone not acknowledged until it became barely. As someone who has worked all types of jobs, going as far back as when I was a teen myself - this is important. The two youngest ladies, at the register, were deep in their gossip that I doubt they noticed we walked in; only customers. I tried to get their attention but to no avail until I walked over and stood in front on them where their conversation had to be cut short. One of the young girls look a smidgen annoyed while the other was trying to rush to get my order. Quality of goods: I ordered a chocolate chip cookie, to share later with my girls and orders sometime raspberry for my teen son that he could enjoy later on break. The cookie was huge, yes, but nothing that beats the moist and chewy cookies I make myself at home, which I can't currently do since my kitchen is beinf remodeled. I asked my son on his bougie donut, later in the day, and he did the so-so hand and gave it an ok and dry. At end: we will stick to SK for service and quality.
