Pretty cool Coffee Place. It has an outdoor ordering place plus a drive thru area. There are some tables outdoors to enjoy your coffee. Pretty fringe style decor, industrial streetlike. Parking is only street parking so in busy mornings it must be a bit of a challenge. Interesting coffee options including a Cubano Cortado which I have not seen in any other place. We ordered a Latte and a Cubano Cortado. Great coffee quality. Service was super fast and cordial. read more

If you're a coffee snob or connoisseur looking for high‑quality beans, this spot is worth checking out. My coffee‑loving friends rave about it, so I finally stopped by -- and it's such a cool setup. There's an indoor café area, a drive‑thru line, and a walk‑up counter, which makes it super convenient no matter what you're in the mood for. They offer a great selection of pastries and the service is consistently excellent. Every time I've visited, they've been pretty busy, so street parking can be a little tricky depending on the time of day. Overall, it's a great spot for anyone who truly appreciates good coffee. The vibe, the quality, and the variety make it a standout in the area. read more

Slipping around the corners of your thoughts? Caffeine gauge moving closer towards empty? Want a little turbo boost? I was three for three of the aforementioned yesterday when I pulled in for the pit stop at this mechanic themed coffee shop. I was in P6, but fortunately cafe Moto must be taking notes from Formula 1 because the entire corral was cleared in minutes ready to hot lap the day. Foot powered coffee drinkers rest easy: there is a walk up section and outdoor seating insulated from the vehicular traffic. The Cubano was excellent and the cold brew is always strong and tasty! read more

First and foremost Cafe Moto has the best beans in California, and I have fond memories of dining in and enjoying a great cappuccino sitting at their counter with friends a few days a week prior to COVID19. These days my visit is lackluster and failing to meet up to the hype of my memories. They only offer walk-up or drive through service and either way you wait 15-20 minutes for a beverage and it's lukewarm accompanied by a cold dry pastry. Depressing! Ambiance non-existent, but Lili is friendly and customer service oriented. read more

Best coffee say the locals...I think I can agree with that. Busy with walk up window and drive through, yet the system seems to be on point. Ordered a lavender vanilla latte with almond milk. Loved it! What i loved even more though was the Chai Latte. Wow, was that a perfect blend. I only took a few sips from my husband's, but it was delicious. I get it! Hype is real with this one read more

Cafe Moto is a unique and car-themed coffee shop in Barrio Logan. They have a drive-thru and walk-in counter to order. There are few outdoor seating but the indoor seating is not available now. The staff is nice, welcoming, and friendly. I've tried several different coffees, lattes, and matchatte and they were all great in flavour without being overly bold or sweet. The parking may be limited but you can park on the streets around Cafe Moto while ordering and picking up your drink. I believe it is one of the best and unique coffee shops in San Diego. read more

Delicious coffee. Mostly consistent. I used to visit this place when they had blended options i miss those sm!!!. Our drinks were delivered by Ben the manager. He was so professional and resolving after a small inconvenience. He even went as far as offering a discount but his kind attention was more than enough. Thank you ben for your cool personality. read more

Llegamos casi al cerrar...yo entiendo cuando me dicen no hay servicio y me voy...pero la mesera dijo si pasen al patio...llegando a la registradora su actitud cambio y fue super grosera y cero interes en atendernos. Era mejor decirnos " casi cerramos o ya no podemos atenderte" y con gusto me voy. Super pesada y grosera. Si Lees esto se honesta y mejor di "ya cerramos" y no atiendas de mala gana al cliente. Por gente como tu nos ganamos mala reputation la gente de servicio. read more

I'm completely disappointed that this place will serve you only half a cup of coffee for an iced coffee and fill up the rest with ice. I asked for a cold coffee with no ice since I wanted to drink it later and didn't want to compromise the flavor once the ice melted and they literally gave me half cup of coffee! What a joke! read more

I had seen moto coffee being served in other establishments but this was my first time trying it straight from the source! I love that they have a drive thru and the red cones they put for your order really keeps the atmosphere in theme to the car shop vibes, I tried a season white mocha with cranberry and almond milk I didn't really taste much cranberry but the drink was delicious, I love the flavor of the coffee and how it mixed well with the white mocha and didn't overpower it read more

If you can drink their coffee black, and it's delicious, you'll want to share the location with friends. Cafe Moto's coffee is that delicious. To be fair, this roaster/importer/coffee shop is off my beaten path. My cousin (from LA) has been raving about this place for the last couple of months though, so since the holidays are here, I figured I should go get him some coffee. One of the best things about Cafe Moto is how knowledgeable their baristas are. When I looked online I realized they have a full range of single origin coffees and roasts. They also have their Blue Sky blend. So much happy coffee beans it could make your head spin. Here's where the baristas come in - they can tell you all about the different flavor notes, how deeply the coffee's been roasted, etc. so that you come away with a couple of bags of beans that are bound to please. Be prepared for the teeny tiny parking lot in back, adjacent to the drive through, or the on street parking up front. The coffee is worth the effort! read more

The coffee is always a 10/10! Strong coffee yet so flavorful. Definitely my favorite coffee shop in all of SD! Not to mention the great customer service provided by the workers, especially Esther! She always makes me feel welcomed and brightens up my day with her positive attitude! Definitely recommend if you're in the area, even if you're not, it's worth the drive! read more

Cafe Moto, a city coffee shop in Barrio Logan, launched Cafe Moto in 1990 but has been roasting coffee in San Diego since the 1960s . However, I first recently tried Moto Coffee while dining at a local eatery in San Diego. From my first sip to the end of the cup, I enjoyed the rich flavors and high-quality taste. The next weekend, wanting more Moto Coffee, I drove down the freeway to Barrio Logan to purchase a bag for home brewing. Cafe Moto offers a wide variety of coffees and prepares each cup to perfection. Beyond their excellent coffee, their culture, vision, and values are impressive, and I was happy to support this local San Diego business. If you want delicious coffee, give Cafe Moto a try, or order from them online if you can't visit in person. It's that good. https://cafemoto.com/about/culture/ read more

We come here weekly and LOVE the coffee! Undoubtedly the best coffee in San Diego. I've gotten their flat white, macchiato, iced vanilla latte with oat milk (my go-to) and most recently their seasonal drink Berrykin which is white chocolate and cranberry. Today I stopped by their pop-up shop and met a quality control staff Michelle who was so friendly and an absolute delight. She recommended the Moto espresso beans so I ended up buying one for home. She's very knowledgeable and we appreciated her friendliness and enthusiasm. Also my pup recommends their pup cup. She says it's the best! Highly recommend, from a forever customer read more

Thank you Lili and Cafe Moto! read more

Stopped by a little after 2 pm to pick up some beans and to try their holiday drinks. The berrykins has a nice subtle cranberry taste and the butter not cry drink is sooo good! It's not too sweet. As always, our drinks came out within 10 minutes of ordering. Chill vibes and chill staff. read more

The drive thru is adorable and so sweet. I didn't expect to have everything delivered to me by hand -- quite a pleasant surprise. The menu was easy to read and the apparel/merch was super cute. I ended up getting a scone, brown sugar latte, and one of the Cafe Moto canvas hats. Delicious! Hat was adorable. Contrary to the cold and rainy weather, the service I received was so warm and nice. I can't wait to stop by here and head over to Libélula with my friends. read more

While we were deciding what to do today, coming here after taking grandpup to Del Mar was a good idea. It's a walk up or drive thru. We entered the drive through line and an employee came up to the car to take our order. He placed a red numbered marker on the hood. Doc ordered 3 Custom sweeties for us to drink and we each had a different snack; chocolate chip cookie(sugar over load), lemon ginger scone and cinnamon apple muffin. We pulled on the side of Chicano Park to admire the art work til we finished our pastries. Much faster than a competitor's drive through. read more

This has got to be the most confusing and frustrating drive thru line ever. But dang wasn't the coffee worth it! We ordered a Dutch espresso mocha and the dulce latte and they were both soooo good.

We had wonderful service at Motos today. At first we only thought of getting a pour over and then saw the menu & had great drive thru service where the waiter walks up to your car. I had an earl grey with whole milk & lavender which was so refreshingly good. Perfectly made, not too sweet. We also saw people at the patio & swag stand so next time I hope to pop in the store. Great job folks! read more

I tried Cafe Moto for the first time today at Sand Diego's 2023 Brunch Bash and it was so good. I was able to try a new drink that isn't currently on the menu, and it did not disappoint. It was so satisfying (smooth and creamy) and it was my favorite item to try at Brunch Bash. Pros: -quality beverages -friendly staff Cons: -n/a I definitely want to try their other menu options. Overall, excellent place for coffee. read more

I've been coming here for years, long enough to remember when the drinks were priced cheaper than other places because as I recall being told, it was a service to the community. Times have changed! Today I paid over $6 for a 12 oz espresso drink. The prices were not even posted just a not updated QR code which showed a price of $4. I miss the old prices, the ability to sit inside, and the shop they used to have. I do love their ground Mexican chocolate. That will keep me coming back. read more

We spent way too much money on coffee and pastries to be unhappy with both. Vanilla latte with oat milk taste like they forgot a few ingredients and burnt the coffee beans. Cold ham and cheese croissant unaware they DO NOT HEAT UP FOOD. Cold meat will lead to sick customers. So unhappy. Rude employees as well read more

If you don't like them, bring them back and they'll make it right! read more

Visited Café Moto on an early Saturday morning for coffee. Not realizing they were only serving coffee out of a window I tried to go inside. The service is slow. Be prepared to wait. They also service a drive thru- which appears to truly slow them down. They don't serve food. The coffee was good but likely not worth the wait. The vibe is whatevs. Sorry I wouldn't go out of my way to visit again. Definitely not the targeted demographic- and that is ok. Not everyone fits in everywhere- and that is ok. read more
