Cute little coffee drive thru. The iced chai I got was delicious and the barista was friendly. If I lived closer I would go more often. The seasonal drinks looked fun ( for April) such as a Peep Latte. read more

Absolutely delicious ! So glad I finally decided to give them a try . I'm hooked . Coffee is good and strong and customer service with a smile . read more

Employees are sooooooo nice, this is my go to coffee place, seasonal drinks are always amazing and all drinks are made with such great quality. read more

Stopped by this place while staying in town a couple days with my fiancé - always on the lookout for a good Americano! This spot did not disappoint. Extra points for the adorable heart sticker aka coffee stopper! Delicious :) read more

Caffe' Adesso - Fiancé and I found this little gem of a coffee shack - who doesn't love an Americano made with Love? ;) adorable! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Alpine, California

BEST DIRTY CHAI TEA LATTE IVE EVER HAD!!! I love supporting small coffee shops & this is one of my favorites. Way better than Starbucks. Worth the drive if it's out of your way & it's right off the freeway which is convenient. read more

I love the variety of drinks they have, the white mocha is awesome, we come here anytime we're heading to San Diego

Charming place. Both the americano and chai tea were delicious. Friendly service as well. Good value. read more

Caffe' Adesso - Chai tea - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Alpine, California

See all

I've been coming here for a couple of years. Things I can count on every time: a smile, courteous service, and my complicated order memorized(I pretty much get the same thing every time). Their coffee is SO MUCH BETTER than Starbucks, and they have yummy sugar-free flavors. Will be coming back. read more

Loved this place!! Dirty Iced Chai tea latte blended! I specifically stopped at this place again after our last trip. The women who work here are super nice and their drink menu is really big. Great afternoon pick me up! read more

Of course the best blended mocha that I have found in San Diego would be over 20 miles from my house. Now I will have to find reasons to drive up to Alpine! Lol! read more

Okay so I was super excited to find a drive-through in alpine to get coffee or tea! Being a small town you have a chance running into someone you know, and honestly the last thing I want to do in the morning before coffee or tea is getting stuck talking. I got my children hot apple cider on a rainy day and they loved it. I do say that their coffee could be a little more flavorful but it was still good. read more

I have been coming to this little spot for years and make sure to go out of my way before work to come since I moved from Alpine. So much better than chain coffee place that is on the other end of town. They have an assortment of goodies to go with your coffee. They even have a Mexican mocha that uses the Mexican hot chocolate. If you're getting coffee in Alpine, this is the place! read more

As Padres fans, we drove to Joe Musgroves parents coffee shop. It was well worth the drive, the smoothie and coffee we ordered were on point. It would have been nice if they would have t-shirts available, sticker or something/souvenir. Other than that drinks were good. We will return. read more

I have been coming here for years and have always loved the staff as well as the coffee. We have a family owned business up the street so trust me when I say buy local is so important and making your customers feel like part of you family is even more important! The short petite blonde is one of the rudest people I have encountered in a very long time. She acts as if you are a complete inconvenience and wasting her time. I haven't said anything till now but this morning was the last straw. I'll be taking my business up the street regardless if it is out of the way. read more

Every, single, time I order a coffee, the cup disintegrates. I can rarely finish my coffee! Friggin ripoff!

Tasty coffee, quick and kind service! Glad we stopped by to caffeinate on the way home from the local mountains.

Road Runner Transport/ Lift & Uber Driver Husband wanted coffee. I was driving, so we pulled in. Vanilla iced coffee, sweetner,milk. Brought his cup, handed it over. For $2.55 medium, he was happy. Now he's hooked. (he's got a smart wife, lucky him). read more

Yummy yummy! I stopped by this little gem on my way back home! I was getting gas for my trip back to AZ and figured I try this little coffee drive thru for some caffeine. I got one of the best iced chai teas I've ever had in my life! It was perfect! The lady working there was pretty sweet to! read more

I much prefer to solicit locally owned coffee joints to the large corporate chains. Having moved out to the country recently I discovered this place that just happens to be a quick stop off the freeway on my way to work or into town. They have a large selection of brews and yummy concoctions that I am still tasting my way thru. I love the fact that I can drive thru and be on my way in a jiffy with a yummy cup o joe to start my day. The gals that work here are all very friendly and great baristas. read more

This little joint is just literally a box on the side of the road but it's clean, fast and the girls behind the counter are generally very customer service oriented. It has always been my preference to spend my money at a "mom and pop" shop instead of a company chain and yes, Starbucks is down the street but it ain't drive thru and this coffee is better. The prices are a bit cheaper and the baked goods, although not homemade are still fresh and yummy. I always order a Soy Chai Latte, extra hot, no foam but have had regular lattes as well, always with an extra shot. I think the last time I was there they were still not taking CC/atm cards but if that ever changes, I bet your traffic will pick up immensely. Keep up the good work! read more

Super friendly staff and fast service for only two workers. This place is family and locally owned. I love bringing my business to them instead of the liberal Starbucks. All of their hot coffee's are amazing. Their ice coffee is good four out of five times I get it. Sometimes the ice coffee taste like dirt, but it is a rare occurrence. The only other complaint is the hot coffee cups will fall apart at the top and start leaking sometimes. read more

Went there this morning. They ran out of brewed coffee (on ALL their selections) at 7AM, they were in the process of making more. However, I had already been in line for five minutes and instead of someone coming out and telling customers it may be awhile due to needing to make more coffee, they let everyone wait. I had to ask when I got to the front and kept waiting for my coffee. In the morning, time and convenience are important for people that are going to work. Needless to say I left with no coffee. How does a coffee shop run out of ALL their selections of brewed coffee at 7AM anyway? You see it getting low, you make more. BEFORE it runs out. May not be giving them another try. read more

This place was perfect for what we wanted the coffee was evening balanced and the flavored were out of this world I'm so impressed it's this place I go there every time we head this way absolutely love it y'all rock!! read more

This is one of my favorite coffee places, if not my most favorite. My son and I have been here just a handful of times, and every time, the staff makes the most amazing beverages. There's an option to drive thru or walk up. We have done both. We have become addicted to the vanilla blended frap. Try it! Super friendly folks, and always smiling. We even got a treat for our pup. Alpine is definitely a dog-friendly neighborhood, including here. Thanks, Caffe' Adesso!! We'll see you again soon. read more

Coffee is great here , the best in town. This is a drive through, so out the door, pick up coffee, drive to where ever you are going. The staff is friendly and accommodating. read more

I love this place! Here in Alpine, we don't have many options as far as coffee shops are concerned but that doesn't matter because we have one great coffee stand! Having spent the majority of my working life in the coffee business, I can easily say that I am a coffee snob. So far, café Adesso has not let me down. They are fast, friendly, and know their way around an espresso machine. I only go out for coffee when I am out at home or want a special treat. Since my standards are pretty high, I usually order drinks that can't be messed up like an iced mocha. At Café Adesso, they use high quality coffee and know how to brew it. I don't have to stick to my "safe" drink, the iced mocha. I feel confident ordering brewed coffee, iced coffee, Americanos, and cappuccinos, because I know that they will be made the right way. My only complaint is a minor one. So minor that I can't take away a star but feel like I have to mention it. Whenever I go to Café Adesso, they are out of banana muffins!!! Like I said, I don't go out for coffee often but when I do, I like to order my coffee and a banana muffin. Luckily, they have a great selection of pastries so I can find something else that I like but I would be one happy camper if I could get my coffee and a banana muffin! read more

This review is long overdue! I LOVE this place! High quality coffee/espresso. Great flavor and Milk choices. Fast and friendly service. And you don't have to get out of your car! I am knocking off a star because they have no loyalty/punch card. It would be nice every once in awhile to get a free drink. Even Starbucks is doing that with their app. read more

I was in a hurry today and went threw thr drive up at Caffe Adesso in Alpine, I had my soy latte O my, it was the Best Latte I have ever had. The foam was perfect, They had my latte to me in less then 30 sec, The girl that help me ask my name and was so nice. Good by Starbuck Good Morning Caffe Adesso read more

Always amazing! Their coffee beans get me hyper, happy and motivated for the day! Love their Mexican Mocha!

I have been going to Adesso for several years now and I still Love them! The girls working in the morning know who my kids are and always ask them how they are and Q's based on past conversation. They are always trying to get you through as quick as possible by coming out and taking your order so it's ready by the time you get to the window. I have ordered several different drinks,which are all very good, but I always go back to my regular... White Chocolate Mocha, Iced, Non-fat, no whip. The only downfall is sometimes I REALLY want a coffee but I don't have any cash...they don't take debit/credit cards. As an upside, they have punch cards so after you fill one up you get a FREE coffee of your choice...however you want it and in the size you want!!!! read more

I stop by here after work a couple days a week after work for an italian soda. Therrisa is always there and is super nice and friendly. I have had a few different flavors now and the strawberry vanilla with half and half and whip cream is by far the best! Really refreshing after a long day in the heat. I will continue to come to cafe adesso and get drinks from here. Prices are fair and the staff is awesome!! I recommend this place to anyone looking for great service and tasty drinks! 5 stars for sure! read more

Caffe' Adesso - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Alpine, California

Best coffee ever. I had espresso shots with Equal, half and half and sugar free Hazelton. So good! Way better than Starbucks by far. My friend had Mexican mocha with add shots. Delicious. Will not hesitate to visit again while in the area. read more

Cute little coffee shop right off the freeway exit. It has a drive thru and a walk up window. There was a bit of a line but not too bad. Will definitely stop by again if im in the area. Staff was friendly and coffee was good. I'm happy. :) read more

I started going to this place for a few weeks before work but i stopped because the line of cars is so long. The older white lady with blonde hair takes forever she will see the line is like 5 cars down and she will still make long conversations with customers about her personal life. And after you deal with the long wait you tell her your order, which mine is not hard is always one small ice coffee. She asks me at least four other times if it was a plain coffee or an iced coffee and then she asks did you want cream then she opens the window again and says did you want sugar. She is so incompetent and talkative about personal stuff and is because of her incompetency that the line is so long. I will no longer go to this place read more

WOW...Accepts CREDIT CARDS! One more reason to love the fast, super efficient, fun drive thru! Alpine's best kept secret...CAFE ADESSO! Any drink you can dream up the friendly Barista's create! GO...GO...GO! read more

Always get a Chai which the girls always have ready. They know me by my car!!..Great service and great chai. It is always nice to see a friendly face before heading to work. Keep up the good work girls!! :-) read more

Love this place!! Such a cute little stop in Alpine where they have the best drinks in the cutest cups. They usually put a cute little sticker on the top to keep the drink warm which is an amazing little touch. I actually keep the stickers around my car lol I always go with my dogs on a day off and they love it too because they're given treats :p I will recommend this place not only for the coffee, but the nice little "alpine" feel you get driving though. read more
