My wife and I received passes to the Ibrik/Cezve (Turkish) coffee workshop and had such a wonderful experience. Memet has an incredible depth of knowledge and you can tell he truly loves what he does. We had wonderful conversations and learned a great deal about Ibrik/Cezve process. And, although I claim to know my fair share about coffee, Memet taught me a thing or 2. The workshop was intimate and well laid out. All the information was clear, concise and easy to follow and went far beyond 'this is how you make coffee'. We talked about every factor of making a good cup and experimented with different variables to achieve different results. I've already recommended Memli to several people and plan to come back for another workshop with some other coffee lovers. If you want to take your knowledge beyond just drinking coffee this is the place to go.

Twenty minutes before closing, they start cleaning the restroom and you cannot use it. Then, 15 minutes before closing, they lock you out onto the patio. It's clear these people want to leave as soon as it's 5pm. Aside from that, the girl working the counter is very abrupt in her responses. Coffee is good but customer service is very poor. If you like Ryan Bros coffee AND want great service, go to the Barrio Logan location.

We had breakfast at a different place that morning and instantly regretted not getting food here. They have pastries, empanadas and their seasonal pumpkin bagel that's shaped like a pumpkin. Super cute. We'll have to get it next time. We were told, by a customer who ordered it, that the filling was a flavored butter, not cream cheese. Saw a fruit parfait there as well and it looked legit. We can't wait to come back and try other drinks and their food options. Street parking in front. There's a constant line but it moves quick so the flow of people coming in and out is pretty quick. Cute decor inside and plenty of tables for people who like to set up camp.

Everything tasted fresh and was packed with the amazing, rich flavor of pumpkin spice. If you love pumpkin season and all things fall, this is the perfect spot to go! Just make sure to get there early to enjoy these delicious lattes before they sell out for the day!

I actually came across this place a…read morewhile back but thr Vista location, it's a small drive-through hut, and at the time, I wasn't too impressed. Recently, I found myself in San Marcos and decided to give it another shot at this location and I'm so glad I did! I've been back a few times now, and every visit has been great. The shop is in a convenient shopping center with plenty of parking, which is always a plus. It's a small, cozy spot with a really cute setup. Each time I've gone, it's been the same person working, and he's always incredibly friendly and welcoming, which makes a big difference. I've tried a few different coffee drinks, and every single one has been delicious although the Mazapan Latte is my absolute favorite! Definitely a must try. The combination of great service and consistently amazing coffee is exactly why I keep coming back. Definitely worth checking out and making the drive since I'm in Carlsbad.

We got the cookies n' cream bingsoo!! I love bingsoo!! It was so good!!! I need to try all the flavors!! I need a second person tho, it's a lot! I should've stopped there, but then I got macarons and a slice of cake. The macarons I got were the Nutella boba and caramel monkey. The caramel monkey was my favorite because it was super soft, fresh, and the cookie had great flavor. The Dubai cake was good but really rich. I definitely need milk or tea with this one. Service is good. It was pretty empty when we came here. I love this place, but I waste a lot of money here and I'm on a diet. That's the only reason why I haven't been here in a long time. I'm pretty addicted to this place.

My…read morewife, children, and I stopped in last Thursday evening to try the bubble tea, and unfortunately the customer service was very poor. The fried chicken itself was good, and the drinks were decent, but the overall experience was overshadowed by the staff's attitude. We asked one girl what she recommend to which she simply replied I don't know and the other one seemed irritated by our questions. This was our first visit, yet they didn't seem interested in helping us! Neither was particularly welcoming or friendly. To make matters worse, we overheard the employees' conversations which included lots of profanity and complaining about work, not a family friendly experience! It's disappointing because the products themselves were enjoyable, but the poor customer service made it difficult to enjoy the overall experience. 2 stars, completely unprofessional.

I was visiting San Diego and came across Matcha Maiko, so l decided to stop by because I'd been…read morewanting to try their matcha. When I walked in, the kiosks weren't working, so ! waited at the front for someone to take my order. Instead, all I could hear was an older lady loudly screaming at one of the employees. It was loud enough that I could hear everything from the front counter, and it honestly gave me secondhand embarrassment. The employee was being embarrassed in front of everyone in the store, which made for a really uncomfortable atmosphere. Because of the confusion, I ended up ordering through their website instead. Unfortunately, the drink was disappointing. They added a huge scoop of strawberry syrup that completely overpowered the drink. I went there to try Matcha Maiko's matcha, not a cup full of strawberry syrup. On top of that, the syrup wasn't even mixed in properly, so l kept getting mouthfuls of syrup at the bottom I was really looking forward to trying this place, but between the uncomfortable experience in the store and the poorly made drink, it wasn't the experience I had hoped for.

I treated myself to a lavender latte during my visit to power me through a few hours of work while waiting for my car to be serviced nearby.

If you like the taste of coffee to come out more when enjoying an espresso drink, the lavender latte may be too sweet to your liking. The ambiance is perfect for a work day or even a intimate conversation with a friend.
