    Morenita Latte
    Monica G.

    I decided to stop in as I was in the area, and this cute kept popping up on my Instagram. I thought it would be the perfect way to end my weekend in San Diego. For a small space, the decor was cute and inviting, with a good amount of seating. We were greeted by the young lady behind the register and she took our orders. I order the morenita (brown sugar) latte and my friend ordered the cafe de la olla. I had high hopes for the coffees, but they were underwhelming at best. La Morenita was a 2/5. No sweetness, barely any coffee, just warm steamed milk and a pretty design. My friend says the cafe de la olla was ok, a 3/5 and that's being generous. The flavor was there but sorely lacking. While the coffee left lots to be desired, the pan delote was an easy 5/5. Tender, moist, sweet and earthy, and baked in a corn husk so the presentation was lovely. It tasted like someone's Abuelita made it! Not sure if I'd cost again if I were in the area...but I'd I do, it' would be for the cornbread and to try the other yummy looking pastries.

    After a long walk in old town san diego, ice coffee sounds great. This is why I'm here. Sit down rest the feet, enjoy a coffee, use the restroom til I know what to do next. . Got myself a salt and honey ice latte with oat milk. It was a great simple drink. Has a hint of salt and sweetness from the honey. The drink was under 7 for 6.50. The coffee is from Mexico and it was a great roast and you can taste the espresso. . Inside is cute and small and simple. The outside is cute and small and makes this placw unique in old town san diego. . Overall if you are lookikg for a good coffee roasters mexican beans this is the spot I recommend for old town san diego area. Nice quick service, order, pay, then on your way. Hope this helps and thanks for reading. Have a yelptastic day.

    stopped by to use the restroom, but decided to pick up a sweet treat & bev as well~~ and i'm glad we did! this coffee shop has a cute, clean, and minimal interior. it's spacious with a handful of seats. the service was also lovely! i'm not a coffee drinker, but the cafe de olla latte was pretty good. honestly, nothing mind-blowing to me. my bf enjoyed it a lot more though! we even tried to visit again on our last day in san diego, but didn't realize the shop closes earlier in the afternoon :(

    I was visiting San Diego with the family to get out of the heat. My baby was fussy and everyone else was asleep. I took him for a walk and stumbled upon this spot. The reviews seemed positive and as an out of sleep mom-I always am down for a good coffee. I was a little worried that it was just a tourist trap kind of place., but I took a chance. They have signs saying that they source the coffee from Mexico. It was one of the best roasts I've had in a long time. No bitterness, just smooth with all the right chocolatey notes. Not pictured, but I also got a spinach and ricotta turnover. The pastry was flaky and fluffy at the same time. It really hit the spot. I sent my husband here the next morning to pick up another latte for me. We will be back!

    I stopped by Flor and Seed today and tried their seasonal latte, the orange canela coffee. The orange and coffee notes were well balanced, not overpowering, but warm and comforting. It's a small, cozy shop with a few tables and seating available, or you can easily grab your drink to go while walking around Old Town. The staff were friendly and welcoming, which made the visit even better.

    De Olla latte with almond milk

    Super cute shop that only brews Mexican coffee -- and it's amazing. Tried the Mexicano (Mexican twist on an americano) and the De Olla latte, which was perfect. Owner and barista were super friendly. Definitely coming back!

    Cafe de olla iced (R) & Mexican mocha (L)
    Alejandra D.

    The coffee selection was great. The person taking our order was alright, but I was surprised to find out that the person making the coffee -- who wasn't very friendly -- was actually the owner. Not personable or welcoming at all, which was very disappointing when we have the pick of hundreds of other coffee shops in San Diego. I ordered the café de olla iced and initially asked for it less sweet, since it's traditionally very sweet. After the first sip, I ended up asking for a bit more piloncillo syrup. The inside of the café was a bit warm with no A/C, so we didn't stay long, but the mural inside was lovely and added a nice touch to the space. Don't see myself coming back here when there's hundreds of other coffee shops that will provide decent customer service and make me feel welcomed.

    Flor and Seed Coffee Roasters -- San Diego, CA Breaking news: The Açaí Guy has entered hot beverage territory. (Technically iced... but still.) Tried the Aztec Mocha -- iced. First time ever. No expectations. No prior bias. Just vibes and curiosity. Immediate reaction? Why has no one told me about this before? Rich, chocolatey depth with that subtle kick that makes you feel slightly more productive than you actually are. Smooth. Balanced. Not overly sweet. A drink with personality. The space itself? Elite casual energy. Cute without being try-hard. Clean. Comfortable. The kind of place where you could sit all morning pretending to read a book... or actually read one. Also prime territory for a low-pressure catch-up with friends. And shoutout to the women working--friendly, smiling, helpful. The type of service that makes you feel like a regular on visit one. That matters. Will I be back? Absolutely. This wasn't a one-time experiment. This was a discovery. Rating 4.8 / 5 Açaí Berries (Strong debut. Repeat visit required for full audit.) Breakdown * Taste: 5/5 * Vibes: 5/5 * Service: 5/5 * All-Morning Sit Potential: 5/5 Current Status: Café Approved Pairing Suggestion: Aztec Mocha + strategic life planning Long-Term Plan: Locate nearest Açaí bowl within walking distance. -- The Açaí Guy

    Iced Morenita latte & matcha concha $12 total for both
    Jennifer H.

    I was staying in Old Town for a weekend trip. I decided to pick this place out of the handful that they have in this area. I am glad that I did because the latte we got was delicious. It was the Morenita (brown sugar) latte with oat milk. We were talking to the staff and asking for recommednations on which beans she prefered. She let us know she likes the Lucha Blend and it's the one that they use for their espresso and lattes. That was enough to sell me. We picked up 2 bags of the Lucha beans because the latte was that good. We also ordered a matcha concha. It was just okay. I have had better concha.

    Cute little coffee shop in Old Town. We were in search of coffee and found this gem. Vanilla sugar free latte for the win. Service was friendly and helpful.

    Sarah H.

    Cute small business coffee shop with delicious coffee! I had iced Morenita and it was perfect, not too sweet! Staff were super friendly as well as other patrons. Love the support of local artists works for sale on the walls. Great vibe to go along with good coffee! Cool place to visit while on vacation!

    On travel and staying in old town. I've been to this place 3 times in the past week. I love coffee. Specifically I love a perfectly crafted latte. I've been to a lot of coffee places around the country and I've been to a few in San Diego. This is the best latte that I have ever had in San Diego. The milk is foamed perfectly. The flavor of the espresso is not too strong, not too mild, and not too fruity, all of which I've experienced at other places. The flavor is like a complex almost chocolate, and naturally blends with the frothed milk to produce quite literally one of the most delicious lattes that I have ever had. Most notably is also the consistency from day to day. At many places I've been to there might be good days and there might be off days. This has been perfect every single time Highly recommend.

This is one of…read moreseveral locations including London (England), Manchester (England), Edinburgh (Scotland), Brighton (England), Escondido (California), and Frisco (Texas). [Parking]: Free private parking lot with plenty of available spots. [Reservation & Price]: Our party booked an advanced one-hour reservation session on the website from 4 PM to 5 PM on a Saturday. The price is $20 + $0.51 booking fee per adult (ages 16+) for a one-hour session. [Experience]: Our party checked in at the front counter and hung out in the waiting area. The waiting area sells various pug merchandise and also has a touchscreen pinball machine. There is a unisex restroom available. Once our party stepped into a separate pink & clean room, the staff went over instructions on how to handle the pugs. Visitors are allowed to pick up the pugs but cannot carry them while standing. Any pug wearing a pink bandana is available for adoption. Each of us received few free treats to start, but additional treats like pupccino (a small pup cup), sausage treats, or fruit cups are available for purchase. The staff was friendly and was playing fun & energetic background music during the pug session. Our party didn't stay for the entire hour and left around the 45-minute mark because we had a dinner plan afterward. [Conclusion]: Our party had fun playing with the pugs and took plenty of photos. It was a fun and Instagrammable experience & I would highly recommend this experience to anyone who's visiting the Escondido area.

The beginning can be a bit chaotic and goofy as the pugs storm out of the entrance to the music Who Let the Dogs Out. Some of the dogs get a bit too excited and pee on something a minute or two out of the gate. Eventually things can settle down if you have the right people in your group, and they find a spot to curl up together on the different beds available or on your lap. They give you a couple treats to give the pugs, but those go quick. If you want to give them anymore you'll need to purchase them with a staff member who will offer you some options about halfway through. The group in the hour before me was having a birthday party for a toddler. I thought that was a creative idea. Another person seemed to have brought her own pug to socialize with the other pugs there. They seem like a very social breed and were very friendly. Overall a fun memorable experience for those who like dogs.

You ring the doorbell, wait patiently, and once you're inside, you realize this isn't your typical coffee shop. It's a place to slow down, enjoy the music, and savor your drink. Monique and Danica were both amazing. They're warm, welcoming, and you can really see the passion behind what they do. Danica is also the DJ, and her eclectic playlist made the whole experience even better. One of my favorite parts was just sitting there watching our drinks being made. You can see the care and craft that goes into every cup...even the Kuramoto ice is beautiful. The Matcha Americano completely changed my perception of matcha. The Kyoto cold brew pour-over was fascinating to watch and incredibly smooth. We loved it so much that we came back the very next day. This time I had the Midori, and my brother-in-law loved the Highball, especially the yuzu. No laptops. Trust the DJ. Drinks are meant to be enjoyed fresh, so take your time. If you're looking for a quick coffee run, this isn't it. But if you appreciate great coffee, good music, and people who are passionate about their craft, Long Play Hi-Fi is absolutely worth the visit.
