Matcha latte with strawberry cold foam and horchata latte
Ramona A.

First off, this place is definitely a HIDDEN gem because it was literally in this plaza that was hard to find lol, but plenty of parking! I love their hours as they're open for early birds like myself. I enjoyed my iced matcha latte with the strawberry cold foam & my husbands horchata latte was delicious too! I would go back again to try different cold foams. I recommend this hidden gem to all my south bay peeps IG: rs.Albright TIKTOK: M.albright

Cute coffee shop with Mexican inspired flavors. For the month of February they have a seasonal gansito and chococherry both delicious. In the past I've had dulce de leche and mazapan. Been coming here since they've opened plenty of parking and great service the staff is always friendly and welcoming. Ordered the de la olla and tres leches also good!

Super cute new coffee shop by the otay border. Clean environment and comfortable seating available. The owner was super sweet and I took her up on some recommendations. I had to try the Gansito cold brew as it's seasonal for the month and February. The strawberry cold foam was delicious! Also ordered the horchata latte with cold foam as recommended and it was so creamy and delicious!

First time coming here. We decided to come here because we are coffee lovers and to be honest TT recommend me this place. It's located in otay a little far from where I live but worth the drive. It has plenty of parking. The place it's super cute and very clean. It has tables chairs and cute coaches to sit down and enjoy your drink and pastries. They have a variety menu from iced coffees to matcha and much more. They also have pastries on a cute transparent display. They also have conchas and empanadas de cajeta. I decided to order the mazapán iced coffee with extra ice and with almond milk. My hubby ordered the orchata iced lattee. Both coffees were AMAZING very tasty and delicious: rich in flavor both of them. We ordered a biscuf cinamon roll that was to die for! And we also ordered a banana muffin. The banana muffin was also yummy. Customer service was phenomenal! She was very sweet, friends, polite and helpful. I really recommend this place and encourage you to go! You won't regret it! It was less than 20 dollars for everything.

I've driven past this coffee shop for years and finally decided to try it. The inside was decorated…read morecute with a rustic, desert vibe. There's indoor seating with chairs & tables as well as comfy chairs. The outdoor seating is covered under umbrellas. I got a matcha with almond milk and added lavender. It was an average matcha, nothing too special. Maybe I should have chosen a different add-in flavor. They made my drink within minutes so service was great! I'll definitely give this place another shot. Gotta support our local coffee shops!

Stopped by on a Sunday morning around 9:30 and the place was already bustling. We ordered two…read morebreakfast dishes and a couple of coffees. The staff was genuinely friendly, and we were able to find a seat inside without too much trouble. We expected a bit of a wait given how busy it was, but the timing ended up being a bit off. Our food arrived first--we had the avocado toast and the mini green chilaquiles. Both dishes were delicious, though the chilaquiles verdes leaned a little heavy on the garlic. (Seriously--hours later, even after brushing, lunch, and multiple rounds of mouthwash, that garlic flavor was still going strong.) We took our time eating, hoping the drinks would arrive, but they didn't come out until much later. We ordered a cappuccino and an iced churro latte. The cappuccino finally came out right as we finished eating--it tasted good, just a bit lukewarm. About five minutes later, the iced churro latte was ready, so we ended up taking it to go. That one was actually really good. Overall, the food and drinks were solid, and the staff made a great impression. I'd definitely like to come back and give it another shot. I love supporting small, locally owned businesses, and with a little adjustment to the flow--like pausing mobile orders during peak times or dedicating a team specifically to them--this place could really elevate the experience.
