I'm a long time fan of Urmomashley (YT/IG) and I've never seen her matcha products set up in person so when I heard they were using her new Kana matcha we had to go. Lots of college students here there's definitely a cool vibe - servers were very kind and super efficient :) Only thing is that we went mid-day on a Sunday, and there was extremely limited parking. There are lots of business located in the same complex that are mostly food and services, so they were pretty packed as well. We ended up parking on the back street behind the store and walked through a side alley to reach the cafe. Matcha was rich, flavorful, and had a great ratio of matcha to milk -- we enjoyed our drinks on the camping chairs they have setup right outside of the cafe.

I have to say this is a really great bagel spot! I've been here several times since discovering the…read moreplace and it's now my go to when I'm in the area. Parking is a bit of a pain bit of you are in waking distance or come early enough it shouldn't be an issue. Sometimes they run out of items if you come later in the day. They have a special Bagel of the month, so make sure to ask what it is. They have several bagel flavors, and different flavor cream cheese spreads. I love the habanero bagel, it's one of my favorites, but just be warned it is very hot. Definitely don't eat it without something cold to drink. They also have a breakfast sandwich called the San Diego which is a favorite of several people I know. You chose the bagel you want it with and they add fried eggs, bacon, cheese and aioli. I highly reccomend it. I've not had a lot of their deinis, but i did order the cinna-bee which has honey, cinnamon, espresso and milk. I thought it was good and would order it again. Definitely check them out and try some of their bagels, or perhaps one of their sandwiches.

The award for BEST coffee during my recent trip to San Diego easily goes to Spill the Beans Coffee…read moreand Bagels. I tried several coffee shops along Seaport Village--some stood out for creative flavors, others for strong espresso--but Spill the Beans nailed the perfect balance every single time. We went back multiple times, and the consistency was impressive. My go-to was an iced "Basic Sitch" with oat milk, while my husband loved the warm "Cinna-bee." Both were incredible. The espresso quality was top-tier, and the drinks were made quickly without sacrificing flavor. Our only regret? Discovering this place halfway through the trip. Had we found it sooner, we would've been there every single day. This review is solely based on the coffee, as we didn't get a chance to try their breakfast sandwiches, though the options looked appetizing. This particular location isn't a fully built-out coffee shop, but it's perfect for grabbing your drink and taking a stroll along Seaport Village or, enjoying it at a nearby bench or outdoor seating area.

Was in the area and saw this coffee shop online so I went in to try. I was very pleased with the…read moreexperience overall! The baristas were very friendly with helping me choose my drink and made sure my first experience was the best it could have been. I tried both the banana matcha and hot chocolate marshmallow drink. Both were fantastic, but I liked the matcha more personally. It had a clean aftertaste, with mellow notes of sweetness and creaminess. One of the better matcha I have had in the city for sure. Definitely worth a try if you are nearby.

Em coffee house, I had high expectations from seeing the instagram posts. I tried the banana matcha…read moreand I noticed that the drink provides no balance. The sweetness of drink over powers the matcha, the matcha tasted very watery and grassy. Overall I wished the drink was more smooth, I did get oat milk and I tasted that more than the overall drink. I would say maybe switching the oat milk for a more smooth consistency like chobani oat. Maybe lowering the sweetness on the banana pudding would provide a balance with the flavors. The atmosphere of the place was nice but dining area was tight and there wasn't much walking space. Overall, I was a little disappointed for the price since it wasn't what I anticipated.

In the heart of North Park. A lovely aesthetically pleasing high quality coffee shop. If I was…read morecloser I would frequent this place on my mama. Anyway my friend Ebony is finally back on the West Coast!! So we got coffee and matcha and celebrated. Lots of indoor and outdoor seating. Street parking is better on the weekdays. We throughly enjoyed our drinks period! Ebony got the Golden Girl latte (brown sugar, molasses, good honey, pink salt, golden grahams, espresso + milk). Her go-to is the Bees Kneez (honey, vanilla, cinnamon, smoked salt, espresso + milk). I got the WildChild (lavender, mint, rosemary, thyme, organic matcha + milk) and it was wild like out of this world wild. So fresh and there were subtle hints of mint and rosemary. Ebony ordered with almond milk and I ordered with oat milk. Winning all around. Next time I would like to try Bodhi Boy (lavender, vanilla, organic matcha + milk) for more of a lavendar vibe. I also throughly enjoyed the minty matcha: Evergreen Parke (fresh mint, vanilla, organic matcha + milk). The baristas are flawless, friendly, and full of recommendations. Great service. Love to see it! Enjoy!!

I go to Lovesong occasionally when I get the time to drive to North Park. I live 25ish minutes away…read morehere but I still drive here just to get coffee! Inside has a good amount of indoor seating to do work on your laptop or just to hang out. There is a pretty good amount of outdoor seating too. The service is great and if you need any changes or additions to your drinks, the staff is happy to help with it. Parking is kind of bad but that is honestly everywhere in North Park. I recommend going here! What I usually order: I frequently order this iced coffee called the Flower Child. I like coconut so I like to order it and add the salted coconut cream top. If you don't, you can leave it plain or add other cream tops. The breakfast sandwiches are also so good. This past visit, I ordered a different drink to try things up and it was also so good! I ordered The Jack Johnson (and added salted coconut cream top). NOTE: Okay so one time I found a hair in the coffee and asked them to remake it and they remade it. Also, sometimes my breakfast sando isn't warmed through all the way and I hope that is something that they fix. The sandwiches seem to be cold before they heat it in their toaster oven and sometimes the center is cold. I don't really know how to ask them to fix that, since by the time I get there, I had already bit into it and I am not sure if they can reheat it after that. Maybe they should toast it slightly longer. No shade! Love this place and I keep coming back.

It gives off a similar taste to drinking a latte with oat milk. In my search for new study spots, this will definitely be on my return list. There are many seats with outlets as well as complementary wifi. It's also very cozy with cushioned seats or big tables to work at. Parking is also very easy with a lot in the front and back, which is rare for a place near Convoy.

Finally got to try this cute Japanese cafe we saw on TikTok, and it did not disappoint!…read more Service: [5/5] The two girls who helped us were so sweet and made the whole experience. We were seated at the bar, which ended up being such a vibe--we got to chat with the girl behind the bar and watch her make lattes and desserts right in front of us. That kind of interaction really sets this place apart. Price: [4.5/5] It's on the pricier side, but honestly it feels fair given the quality of food you're getting. You can taste where your money is going. Food/Drinks: [5/5] Matcha Latte -- We shared one, extra sweet at my request, and it was perfect. Exactly what I was hoping for. Chef Soichi's Karaage -- We had this as an appetizer and my boyfriend made a point to say this is the closest he's had to traditional Japanese karaage. High praise from someone who's passionate about his Japanese culture. Hayashi Omurice -- This is their most popular dish and it's easy to see why. The demi-glaze has a really unique flavor that ties the whole dish together beautifully. This was my pick and I'd order it again without hesitation. Guratan -- My boyfriend's order, and it was incredibly creamy and delicious. We were both too stuffed for dessert by the end, which says a lot about the portion sizes. Ambience: [5/5] The restaurant is small, but honestly that's part of what makes it so charming. Pink everywhere with wooden accents and cherry blossoms throughout (very fitting)--it's cozy, homey, and just really well put together. The intimate size adds to the appeal rather than taking away from it. Overall Experience: [5/5] Hatsuzakara was such a wonderful first experience. Yes, we waited about 30 minutes to be seated arriving at 7:30 on a Friday night but for a waitlist-only spot this small, that's actually a pretty reasonable wait by San Diego standards. The food, the atmosphere, and the staff more than made up for it. Already looking forward to coming back to try the curry and work through their dessert menu.

This Japanese restaurant is so cute and pretty!! The servers also add to the Japanese vibe~…read more The menu is pretty easy to navigate. I feel like everything looked really good, so it was hard to decide what to order. The dishes have small portion size despite the price. I think this kinda helps in that you have room to eat dessert! The brown sugar Okinawa tea was good but the after taste of the sugar was not good. They kept the tea pot warm, and they served oat milk on the side. Karaage had too much chicken skin for my preference. Guratan was penne pasta and not macaroni as specified in the menu. Yakisoba could have used more chicken. Omurice had the more flavor and the egg was really good. I want to try naporitan next time because of the tomato based sauce. Of the desserts I tried, the parfait was most enjoyable because of the fruit with ice cream. The mushi pudding was good; it was the thick and "hard" type of flan. I want to try kakigori next time because I saw their shaved ice machine was legit. Parking - free street parking only. Be prepared to walk up/downhill.
