Some special cafecito to start our day. Hawaiian style!!…read more You know it's good when you sip your drink and it takes you back to Hawaii.... * Hawaiian Host (Level 3) * Dirty Taro Latte (Level 2) This place has been here since 2016. I cant believe we just heard about them now..... We're most definitely coming back. They also have a location in Mira Mesa that we want to try (larger menu).

A weird experience but the effort is appreciated…read more Came in one weekend out of convenience, we were driving around the area and my gf highly recommended it. We parked and noticed nearly all the lights were off. The pastry cabinet was empty, the tables were taped off. But people were inside and customers were in line. Emotions and energy were low, it was quiet and dim vibes all around. We walk in and see just one man working the cashier and making the drinks. He looked puzzled, a bit lost. We get in line behind someone ordering 4+ drinks and see that this guy didn't really know how to make the drinks. He was misplacing the ingredients and wasn't fully confident operating the payment system. The back counter was cluttered with miscellaneous gadgets, appliances, and syrups. It took nearly 20 minutes for the customer in front of us to get from ordering to receiving their drinks and we just watched in slight awe. The guy was apologetic and upfront, he was trying his best in a bad situation. They made some small talk and hinted that they were closing due to supply chain disruptions in Hawaii. I feel for them and wish them well. The coffee itself was ok. Flavor was decent but somewhat unremarkable. They offer different caffeine levels, up to I think 400mg in a drink. I just got the 200mg coffee. Don't know if I just built a tolerance but I fell asleep right after. We did want a pastry but with the baked goods cabinet empty, we weren't sure what they had left to offer. There was a long sign listing everything sold out between the pastries and coffee flavors. Overall the experience was odd and left a slightly bitter emotional taste in my mouth. They've acknowledged that they weren't in the best condition at that point and I do feel unfair to judge them at their worst. If they turn it around, I'm opening to revisiting. But for now, I don't feel compelled to go out of my way for it.

Everything went well at 6 Grados Coffee!…read more My interaction with the barista was pleasant, and the ambiance was cool, eccentric, and unique. I ordered the Oaxaca Moka and was impressed by the flavors of the coffee. I got a touch of sweetness and bitterness from the Oaxacan chocolate and dark chocolate. The nutty crunch of the pecans was a nice addition as well.

This last trip I decided to try something different and got a hot Cajeta Brûlée. I wish I would have tasted the cajeta a little more, but the coffee was still so yummy.

I've only been to JETS about 2-3 times and have had a good experience. The shop's set up is really…read morecute, there's one table outside and it kind of feels like you're pulling up to someone's homey shack. Based on what I've seen it looks like it's just run by one very nice lady -- the service time was fair and luckily I was the only person in the drive thru at the time. But I would maybe take that into account if you are going during rush hour. I would highly recommend the Chunky Monkey frappe especially if you are a fan of banana coffee. It's a little chocolatey with coffee and real banana flavor. The Mexican mocha was also divine!

I asked for oat milk in my latte and it was a $1.50 upcharge, however I can taste the cardboardy type of aftertaste from it that I dislike from some oat milks. I can see the convenience of this drive through spot but not a place for me.

This is a solid cafe! Being in a large shopping plaza, there is ample parking. Theres large windows…read moreand lots of space to work. It's very cooling with lots of plants and an "earthy" vibe. The benches are quite uncomfortable, but the padded chairs are great and cushy. The drinks were a hit/miss. The coffee was actually quite good and my Galactic Cold Brew kept me energized. I especially liked the cold foam on top. My bf got the Strawberry Dragonfruit Citrus Tea, which was quite disappointing. It tasted very watered down and lacked flavor, which is a bit ridiculous because saw them making it with Simply Lemonade :/. That's usually fine but...what am I paying close to $6 for if there was no flavor? :/ I'm also quite annoyed with the fact that there's no power outlets inside. It's set up as a working cafe (with large tables and an elongated large coworking area right in the middle), so...what are folks supposed to do when their devices die? It kinda feels like false advertising lol. Otherwise, service was great. I would come back for the coffee but probably not stay long. Please install some outlets, I beg you

Five stars!

The staff is friendly, the service is fast, and I appreciate that I'm not sitting around forever waiting for my coffee. I know I should probably branch out and try some of their other drinks, but I have a picky stomach, and when I find something I love, I stick with it. Their Café de Olla with honey is definitely my favorite. Most importantly, I wanted to acknowledge the consistently friendly service. A great cup of coffee combined with kind, efficient customer service makes all the difference. Five stars from me!

I ordered a coconut Irish cream iced latte…read morewith oat milk, vanilla cloud foam, and caramel drizzle, flavor-wise, it was really good and hit that sweet, creamy vibe perfectly. The space itself is very minimal with not much going on inside, and it's located right across from the trolley. That said, I wasn't greeted when I walked in, which kind of set the tone. Customer service felt pretty meh, and with construction making the parking lot a bit of a hassle, it just didn't feel like the easiest stop. The liquor store owner was also standing outside checking where people were parking which felt a little bizarre being that there's not many parking spots. Glad I gave it a try, but probably wouldn't go back.

A must try spot if you're in the area!…read more Visited on a weekday and it was fairly busy. Lots of seating around the space though, so you didn't feel crowded. Very welcoming and fun ambiance here. Really friendly staff that was patient while we asked questions about the menu. Unique drinks on their signature bev menu, and tasty looking bites as well. We ordered an iced buko pandan with oat and an iced IPA latte with oat. Drinks came out in glasses since we were hanging out for a bit, and they were killer! Really great flavor profiles in each respective drink that showcased the subtle nutty-sweet flavors in pandan and the complex layers in an IPA. Highly recommend giving these drinks a try! Look forward to visiting again soon to try out more of the menu!

They have a few tables for indoor seating. We ordered at the front counter. The girl at the register was nice. We got the taro smoothie, the honeydew smoothie and a lychee bliss fruit tea. Our drinks came out in a timely manner and each was delicious! The smoothies were of perfect consistency, not icy and flavorful to the end. The boba was warm, nice and chewy. The lychee bliss was good too, just the right amount of sweetness. Refreshing. It's definitely a great place for boba and highly recommend!

That's what brought me to Bee & Tea -- and I'm so glad I stopped by. I had no idea they offered waffles, and let me just say... they're delicious. The pandan waffle especially stood out: not too sweet, lightly aromatic, and the texture was on point -- crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. Such a comforting treat. They also started offering green Thai tea, which I actually prefer over the classic Thai tea. it's smoother and has a lighter, more refreshing flavor. And now they ask if you'd like boba added, which I truly appreciate because not everyone automatically wants it. It's a small detail, but it makes the experience feel more personalized. Overall, it was a great visit and a nice break in the middle of a tough year. I'll definitely be back to try their signature drinks next time!
