Stopped by yesterday to try this coffee shop and overall had a great experience. One thing I really…read moreappreciate is that their flavors are made in-house, which always makes drinks taste more unique and less artificial. I ordered a honey cinnamon latte with half sweetness and it was really good. The flavor balance was great and not overly sweet, which is exactly how I like my coffee. I also picked up an iced vanilla latte, and that one was just as good. When I was ordering, the person taking my order didn't seem very interested in giving recommendations when I asked, but the barista who made the drinks was very nice and the coffee itself was excellent, which made up for it. There's some construction going on in the area right now, but I was still able to find parking without too much trouble. The food also looked really good, though I only tried the drinks this time. There is ample seating and bathrooms for customers in the back. Overall, great coffee and I'd definitely come back to try more of their menu.

AN EXPERIENCE TO REMEMBER Lofty Coffee is perched on a hill…read moreat the edge of Encinitas, overlooking Highway 101 as it winds past sweeping views of the Pacific on its way toward Del Mar and Torrey Pines. SLOW DOWN AND BREATHE It's the kind of place that naturally slows you down--an easy morning or afternoon refuge where expertly brewed coffee, refreshing drinks, and thoughtfully made treats invite you to linger. FEED YOUR SWEET TOOTH The glass case greets you like a siren song, filled with organic and indulgent pastries whose aromas are as irresistible as the sandy beach stretching just across the street. FUEL YOUR BODY And it's not all sweets. Lofty also serves hearty, satisfying food that actually fills you up and delivers on flavor for more discerning tastes. FEEL THE COASTAL VIBE You'll find yourself among locals and travelers alike--many of whom wish they lived here, in the kind of coastal town that Lofty helps make feel like home. And, Parking and service are above average for the area.

Outdoor seating are available. There is no bathroom. We parked in the residential area. The menu includes; açai bowls, smoothies, latte, coffee, specialty lattes, gold brews, retail coffee,matcha, seasonal drinks, tea. In addition to their fresh bakery. We ordered; -Monkey business Matcha 5/5 It's coconut syrup and banana cold foam. The drink had unique taste, with adequate sweetness, rich flavor and creaminess. -Banana bread latte 5/5 Brown sugar, banana cream and foam, nutmeg and cinnamon. The drink was refreshing. The mixture of the creamy banana and the brown sugar gave the drink a unique and rich flavor -Coconut Caramel cookie 5/5 My goodness! That was indulgent, buttery,and had the perfect texture. -Banana Nutella muffins 5/5 The muffin was moist and rich in banana flavor then the center had rich and gooey chocolate. It was heavenly! The staff were very welcoming and genuinely warm. The service was really fast. Definitely, I will be back to try their açai bowls and order more drinks.

Might seem like a small unsuspecting place that serves coffee but if you take a closer look you will see that they roast their own beans in the back and the espresso equipment they use is top tier (La Marzocco).

Had an oat milk cappuccino and also tried their turmeric and ginger drink. I saw that a lot of their ingredients are made in house. This is definitely a place that's more about the coffee and the community vibe.

I went twice with my family in two consecutive days. For the first visit, we ordered: -Ham & Cheese empanada -Baco Egg & cheese empanada -Sausage egg & cheese empanada -Pour over Coffee with cream and sugar -Coffee Mojito Their coffee Mojito is their signature drinks. It was very refreshing, creamy and perfectly sweetened. It was just a delightful drink. Their empanadas were very fresh, savory, flavorful, flaky, and golden. There was explosion of flavors in every bite of each type of empanadas. We ordered the same empanadas and drinks for the second time too. The staff were energetic and friendly. The service was fast. It is a great place to stop by if you are craving empanadas or refreshing drinks. You will get an excellent service too.

But the vibes inside proved to definitely be a locals only spot. We felt very out of place, the inside was not inviting at all.

It tasted more like a creamy coffee. It's pretty good! This is a cute little kiosk located in a gas station parking lot. The barista Jesse was the sweetest! She was so nice in helping me pick a few drinks to try. I'll be back to try some of the other drinks

Coffee's great, love that the pour over comes in a carafe, making it feel extra fancy. The sausage+egg+cheese croissant is a GOAT breakfast sandwich. I wish they had the ham version that the location across the street has (or, at least, had -- haven't been there in years since I like this spot more). They pass the "do they date the beans?" requirement, but fall victim to a less critical pet peeve, where the beans are located right below the register. So I have to wait in line, only to hold everyone up once at the front to look at the options. Putting them somewhere to the side of the line, so people can browse while waiting is the way, or even somewhere outside the line altogether. It's hard to understand how such a painfully obvious no brainer can be overlooked.

And then there's the setting: the ocean's edge just steps away, the salt air drifting in like a benediction. Here, a warm cup of bliss becomes more than a drink--it's a pause, a breath, a moment of calm carved out of the daily grind on sand impossibly fine. Lofty Coffee doesn't just serve coffee. It restores your spirit, one perfect cup at a time. I'll be back!

I visited their location  in Encinitas today to meet a friend and unfortunately had a very…read moredisappointing experience. I ordered the Greek scramble, which comes with a bagel. When my food arrived, the bagel had visible mold on it. It was very concerning that this wasn't caught before being served. I brought it to the attention of the staff member who delivered the food. Instead of taking the plate back and replacing the meal, he simply removed the bagel from my plate and brought another one. Given the situation, I would have expected the entire dish to be remade. Additionally, the coffee mug I was given appeared dirty, which added to my concerns about overall cleanliness. I later felt sick and experienced symptoms consistent with food poisoning, possibly related to the meal. For the quality of food and service provided, the pricing felt unreasonably high. The overall experience did not reflect the cost. I'm really disappointed with the lack of quality control and how the situation was handled. I hope management takes food safety, cleanliness, and customer service more seriously moving forward.
