    Im a non coffee person and they only had smoothies. I thought they had boba. They no longer do. I order strawberry smoothie. Pretty good. My Brother in law ordered de la olla latte. He liked it.

    I wanted to give them a chance, but the costumer service was just not there. Not friendly and very cut off.

    Decent cold brew, no blender for over a month. Also had several drinks out of stock when we went. Will give them another try

We can Definitely a cool coffee shop in San Diego. The pastries here are pretty good. I heard they just changed the bagels only made by their sister Co.. I need to give those a try I got the coffee soda basically like an espresso tonic pretty good the glass that it comes i in his super cool and different to most of the places you get coffee at the side of the building is small, but still kind of spacious in a way gives us pretty cool atmosphere. I heard they're gonna do some more upgrades to the inside, making it feel a little more home like that's cool cause I like cozy spots with a manly touch concrete leather metals. It's just a vibe.

And picked up an almost croissant. They do not shelve non fat milk, but have oat and almond. So I went with oat. Two customers that came after me go thier drinks first. And when mine came up, it was lovely but not right. It was a cold mocha. They remade it. It was just a wee annoying, especially since I was coming here with the hopes of a mind blowing experience. The coffee was fine. The staff seem to know the local regulars and chat them up appropriately. The seating it still hard and uncomfortable. I'll try again one more time to see if hey flip my bippy. So far two stars for they way they interacted with other. One star for the pastry and the coffee mis up and late service was a - of stars. And my picky pastry folks (she knows who she is) would say it's not a true croissant, as there are cuts across the pastry... but it's buttery and flaky..

    My first "coffee" experience with my kids. What a special experience! The hot chocolate gives them the vibe.

There were a few tables, and high top bar seating inside the location. I enjoyed a matcha latte with less sweetness, less ice, and with boba. The boba quality was great! I feel like the boba could be hit or miss at the Mira Mesa branch.

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.
