This place is AWESOME! Visiting from out of town and found this hidden gem across from my work…read moremeeting. I tried the seasonal Basbousa latte and Bastirma & Cheese croissant. The Basbousa latte tastes like vacation in a cup with undertones of coconut cutting through the caffeine. I paired it with a Bastirma & Cheese croissant, which was the perfect savory to my sweet coffee. Bastirma is like prosciutto and the cheese was a bit of smoky flavor -- mix it into a flaky buttery croissant, and it's almost like you're in heaven.

Finjan is such a beautiful Turkish coffee spot and easily one of my favorites…read more I love their drinks, they are incredibly flavorful, high quality, and always presented so beautifully. I'm honestly obsessed with their ceramic plates and cups, they add so much to the whole experience. They serve great coffee, and you can also try traditionally made Turkish coffee here, which makes it feel even more special and authentic. Their baklava is top notch, and the food is just as good. My favorite is the fava bean toast.. so delicious and unique. Overall, such a lovely spot with amazing drinks, great food, and a really thoughtful presentation.

Very cute shop. Perfect for meet up, study, work, or just chill with a nice cup of matcha latte!…read more Staff/baristas are super friendly and helpful. All their lattes are amazing but my personal fav is the matcha. Excellent quality matcha and you can definitely taste it! Been here a few times just to grab some lattes and pastries to go but love the vibes. Will be back someday to just chill and enjoy the environment.

This rating is solely for the matcha, because I am a matcha snob. I got the Mia-More Matcha, which…read moreis a honey earl grey lavender matcha, and the syrup was SO good! It was floral and sweet without being so overpowering that you couldn't taste the matcha. The matcha itself seemed to be really good quality, too. It was a beautiful, bright green, and they definitely didn't skimp on the matcha. However, it was grainy and lots of matcha would settle to the bottom even after I stirred it. It just needed more whisking because I was hoping for a smooth, creamy matcha, and this just wasn't it. Also, they only offer one size for their drinks, so if you're a thirsty hoe like me, you're out of luck. Overall, I was impressed with the quality of the matcha but not the preparation. Maybe it was just an off day, though! I promise I'll be back to give it another try. As for everything else, this is such a cute, quiet cafe with a bigger seating area in the back. They have a variety of pastries, savory empanadas, and drinks ranging from matcha and hojicha to coffee and fun options like tonics. My coworkers got the honey cinnamon latte and hojicha cloud, and they both enjoyed their drinks! I got the ham and cheese croissant, which was really good, but I wish it had more ham and cheese. My coworker got the lox bagel, which was gorgeous and loaded with toppings, but it was a little bland. Overall, I really like the vibe of this place, and I'll definitely be back to give the matcha another shot!

Need more info up front so you don't blow $8 on a drink you do don't like. Really nice decor though! And every one in my family (besides me) liked their drink. So I ordered 3 tasty drinks enjoyed besides mine, which I didn't like. Recommended ordering tea instead of coffee. I think the drinks are intended to be ordered as designed, rather than modifying sugar levels.

I have been coming to Park Social for years and have enjoyed everything I have ordered here,…read morewithout exception! I typically go for the French Toast, but felt a bit adventurous and ordered a plate of Chilaquiles with red sauce! First off: BEAUTIFUL presentation! The plates here always excite me for the meal to come, and the Chilaquiles were no exception. Everything was perfect for me: the amount of tortilla chips, sour cream, and cheese, and the egg was cooked perfectly. I wasn't expecting such a large portion size, but I wasn't complaining at all! Pictured next to my plate is a Mexican Mocha. I get one with every meal here. They aren't too spicy or sweet, which is just how I like them. At this time, their display showing the coffee menu is broken, but do know that they serve coffee, and even have seasonal drinks for the Fall!

Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. It's open and bright. It's very hard to not miss it. Lots of food options and beverage options. The service was cool. Our food and coffee did not take long to come out which was nice. I ordered a Bacon Breakfast Burrito and an Espresso Coffee. This was delicious and I did not take home leftovers. We had a nice breakfast date here and want to try some wine on our next outing here.

Saw a boba shop on Yelp I had yet to visit and was nearby so I had to come and try their drinks!…read moreThe shop is in a small but busy strip mall, and parking can be tricky. I ordered the einspanner latte and my husband the gotcha fruit tea. The fruit tea was delicious and refreshing for a summer day. The einspanner latte was strong but not as sweet as I thought it would have been for a latte like drink, could be my misunderstanding of the drink itself. It was still good and gave me the extra kick I needed to keep going for the rest of the day. There are still a ton of drinks to try and I definitely will be back again

Both times I've had to remind them about the macaron or the flavor I chose ran out. The second time we waited an additional 20-30 mins for our drinks after placing an order and arriving. However, their drinks are really good! My favorite is the Hojicha latte with the cream top and their Ubelicious is also amazing as well. I would come back again and hopefully the online ordering process will be smoother!

The café has a nice little setup with cute spots to take pictures and music playing in the background. The workers seemed busy but I understand--it's a popular place that always seems to have a lot going on! You can enjoy your bagel there or take it to go. I took mine to go, and they packed it in a sturdy container that I've actually kept reusing! They also included the pretzel stick and pumpkin cream cheese. Such a fun fall treat!

I was really excited to visit S3 Coffee because of all the pumpkin options they have, but…read moreunfortunately, the experience didn't quite live up to the hype. I ordered the pumpkin bagel with light cream cheese, but they don't offer light cream cheese, so they offered to put the regular cream cheese on the side. I also tried the pumpkin latte, which had a very subtle pumpkin flavor. I was hoping for a little more of that fall flavor. One thing that also took away from the experience was the service. They didn't ask whether I wanted my order to-go or to eat at the café--they simply prepared to-go. I would have preferred to have the option, especially since the café has such a nice atmosphere. The decoration is really cute, and the space has lots of natural light, which makes it a beautiful place to sit and enjoy a coffee. The service was just okay. Overall, I'm glad I tried it, but for me, it was more of a case of "just the hype."

Came for BOGO half off special for the back to school event~…read moreThe mango sticky rice is so good. The sticky rice is such a unique topping and the mango is very soft, smooth and sweet. No fibers. I also like the coconut milk base which adds to a really smooth drink. 10/10! I Totally recommend this drink, even though I heard 3Cat is known for their tea drinks. Many small tables and mostly booth seating. The booth seating has some comfy pads and you can grab some stackable chairs to sit. The seating area could be more clean. I think it's better in smaller groups for the seating area (2-3 people). Most people ordered for takeout, but it's nice to sit and enjoy the playlist.

She had tried their mochi matcha smoothie before and said it was delicious, so we decided to stop by and give it a try. You order electronically from the screens on the wall by the entrance, and the staff starts making your drinks. I tried the mochi matcha smoothie and it was really good! My friends ordered the mango smoothie, which was delicious too. I think they serve a variety of teas as well, but we were there mainly for the blended drinks. I usually like my teas with grass jelly, and since they didn't have grass jelly as an add-on, I decided to stick with a smoothie instead. Overall, definitely worth giving 3Cat a try if you're on Convoy and in the mood for something cold and blended!

Camellia is still one of my favorite boba places in San Diego! I appreciate how there are regular…read moreflavors that stay on the menu, as well as seasonal flavors which rotate monthly. My husband and I usually get a jasmine milk tea and oolong milk tea. For both drinks, we get full sweetness, light ice, and add boba. This time we tried a seasonal drink, the banana milk matcha, which was well balanced. The banana flavor didn't overpower the matcha, and I can really taste the quality of the matcha. Another seasonal favorite that I often get is the strawberry hojicha fresca. The service is quick and efficient. They always have our drinks ready soon after we place the order. You can also order online, and then pick up in store. The inside is always clean and well lit. It's a great place to catch up with friends, work/study, or just do a quick grab and go! I'd recommend checking out Camellia the next time that you have a boba craving.

The peach flavor was really good, although I wish I could control the sweetness. I liked that the oolong flavor was still decently strong and didn't get overpowered by the peach. There were also peach bits in the drink, which I enjoyed, although I think they might have been canned peaches. We also added chrysanthemum jelly, which was really good and complemented the drink nicely! Overall, a really refreshing drink, and I'd definitely be interested in trying their other tea fresca flavors!
