Great local coffee shop in the Casa de Oro area! Beautifully decorated inside and they also have a drive-through, decent size parking lot. They have a pretty extensive food and coffee menu, including refreshers and blended drinks. Customer service was great. I will definitely be coming back. read more

First time here and I was told it's a really good spot. It was easy to find parking since it was early morning. The staff were very helpful on what to order for the first time. I ordered the Dirty Harry latte and a sandwich, both were amazing. read more

It's called Gladly because people will gladly go back (or at least I would)! This is primarily a drive through location at the moment. We were a little confused when we first arrived because it looks like they do normally have a dine in area, but it was under construction when we visited. They had a sign that they'd take our order at the patio door, but we couldn't figure out which one was the patio door and when we did go to what we thought was the patio door, no one came out but we could see the employees just looking at us lol. We hopped back into the car and went through the drive thru. There wasn't a long line around 1:30pm on a Sunday so we were able to browse the menu and order pretty quickly. They have the menu posted outside the shop for walk up, but the drive thru menu featured other seasonal drinks not listed on the other one. Per everyone's recommendations here, I went with an Iced Dirty Harry Latte (regular at $6). I was worried that it'd be too sweet after reading some other reviews but it actually wasn't that bad. Maybe they made it differently when I went. I really enjoyed it and it tasted so good! Not sure if I really got the butterbeer flavor but it was delicious, nonetheless. Definitely check it out if you're in the area and looking for a quick coffee to go! read more

I love love love gladly because of its ambience and the drinks are creative and usually very good, but the service isn't always great. The drive through workers especially are very snappy and not the most helpful. Ordering inside is a little bit better, but 9/10 they just seem super uninterested and vaguely upset that I'm ordering. I'll keep coming back because it's decently priced and near my house, but I wouldn't go out of my way to come. read more

The coffees are delicious and so is the breakfast from what I've tried so far! Great service and nice ambience.

Went here for a quick breakfast while on a work trip. The drive thru workers were very friendly both times I went, and the line moved fast! I am by no means a food expert, but this was one of the best breakfast sandwiches I've ever had! Absolutely packed with flavor! (although tricky to eat in a car without making a mess). My spicy chai was also wonderful! The dining area was closed when I went so I can't speak for that. It looked nice from outside though :) If I'm ever in the area again I will definitely be back! read more

Worse drive thru line ever. The "zipper" concept essentially allows people to cut others who were waiting at least 10 mins.. it causes traffic on the main road because of them allowing people to zipper and cut. read more

First time going, didn't get a single smile by anyone, they seem "to busy" to help, apparently wifi "hasn't been working" for a week but somehow didn't communicate that in the beginning until I kept asking why the wifi wasn't connecting. Vanilla latte tasted very artificial, couldn't taste the espresso but could taste the syrup. The inside is nice, just not a good experience. Not sure if I'll give it a try again. read more

Always a good experience here. Their coffee is so good. The employees are always so nice. Inside is so cozy and kid friendly we love it.

Heard great things about this place so decided to check it out. Have had the Moonlight Magic, the Dirty Harry, and the Bees Knees. They are their top three drinks according to the baristas. Let me start off by saying all three were delicious but if you ask for them blended it IS refreshing but the drinks lose their flavor. Highly recommend trying their drinks as cold drinks so you can figure out which is your favorite before venturing to their blended ones as they do not, in my opinion, do the drinks justice. On to specifics! Moonlight Magic: my least favorite of the three but still yummy. It's "Purple Ube with a Gentle Blending of Vanilla, Espresso, Spiced Nutty Flavor with a Cocoa-y Mouthfeel." The ube taste is yummy but it felt like it was competing with the vanilla. Bees Knees: lavender, honey, coffee. Second favorite! Tastes like a refreshing summer drink but with the addition of coffee. The lavender is strong but I love that about it. Dirty Harry: 12/10. I like sweet coffee drinks and this literally hits the spot! If you don't like your coffee sweet I recommend you try Bees Knees or ask them to lighten this one up. It's coffee with burnt butter. It sort of tastes like a marshmallow and your girl is NOT complaining about it. There is a drive through that is always long and snakes out to the main road. If possible it tends to be easy to come from the freeway to enter. All in all: will keep this place in my coffee rotation! read more

Was able to try this coffee shop around noon on a Saturday. Not to busy and was only the 3rd vehicle in line. Had a iced salted caramel macchiato. Flavor was good, but a little weak for my liking. Next time I'll definitely add a extra shot. Nice and clean exterior. read more

Exceptional service, the menu is well curated, it's a classic breakfast house bites with the ease of a drive thru café. It offers more than the usual coffee shop fare, featuring hearty breakfast options alongside quick, convenient bites. The menu changes so keep that in mind. The drive through is always packed but the line is fast!! So have your order ready before getting to the window, they won't give you much time, they're too busy cooking up great stuff! Inside is gorgeous. Gem in the area for sure read more

Discovered this gem when I was in the area to shop near Grossmont! They offer a stamp card which I would recommend taking because I returned back on multiple occasions wanting to try a different drink! The drinks I've tried so far are their Raspberry Matcha Cooler, Moonlight Magic, and the Bees Knees Ice Blended Latte. My favorites are the Moonlight Magic Blended and Bees Knees! Both drinks are amazing and I'd recommend it for your first time. I can't quite distinguish the flavor of the Moonlight Magic but the drink is purple and topped with blue sprinkles. The Bees Knees is very sweet, I believe it is due to honey in the coffee. I think the Raspberry Cooler was a bit too tarte for me, and the sweetness level was pretty high too, but the drink itself is also pretty to look at! As for food, I tried their Turkey Pesto Melt. It was a really good sandwich and reasonably priced too! read more

Really like this place normally, the food is tasty, and decent priced, the coffee is great. However today I had a pretty strange experience with service. I heard my name for my order, walked up and some guy who was eating with his hands rudely grabbed it from me without explaining, wandered off into the kitchen and when he came back handed it to me which it had visibly been gone through. They tried to explain he worked in the kitchen but not why they grabbed my order. And the way he did it was incredibly rude. read more

Great coffee and food! Service is good and so glad they opened up inside seating. Neighborhood gem

Just moved to this area and wanted to try this place. The line was long but moved fast. Tried the moonlight latte everyone was getting and its really good just needed a splash more of milk for my preference. Got an egg avocado and cheese breakfast sandwich and was really good and fresh! Pretty good prices. My new coffee spot. read more

'Gladly' stopped here for coffee and an everything avocado bagel with goat cheese, arugula, tomato, & red onion. Yum!

Serious, so good. Gladly's Dirty Harry proves that excellence is possible. I get so excited every time I get to bring someone new to this spot. read more

A Spring Valley GEM! I love this place so much! I've had majority of their sandwhiches and they never miss the mark. So delicious and filling! I usually get their mocha, lattes, or salted caramel macchiato to pair with the sandwich. This has become my go to spot. read more

Best coffee in San Diego!! The red velvet mocha iced is sooo good. Line is long, but there's a reason why, and it goes quick!

This place is probably my #1 coffee spot in SD.. and that's coming from a local. The lobby has never been open for as long as I've been coming here, up until recently. It was open on a Friday however, today (Sunday) the lobby was closed. Keep that in mind in case you're coming to sit down and break out your laptop. The drive thru line is usually long but don't fret, it goes by quick! read more

I ordered a classic breakfast sandwich and a bees knees latte that were both delicious! The late was amazing, perfect balance of strong coffee and sweetness. Also. I loved the ambiance! The music was nice and it's so spacious with lots of seating, would definitely come again. read more

I've noticed that all of the bad reviews on here, un coincidentally come from immature people who curse in their negative review and are probably (unsurprisingly) rude in person. This is mine and my coworkers favorite coffee spot... like ever. I've never had a miss with their drinks. I'm not a huge fan of their breakfast sandwich selection, but I'm also a picky breakfast person (they aren't bad tasting, just definitely won't be everyone's cup of tea). I will absolutely take Gladly any day over Starbucks. Supporting a small business, is everything to me and you absolutely will not be disappointed. Their bee's knees and blended Dirty Harry are to die for. Also if you live close and plan on frequenting this place, ask for a punch card! I was coming here almost everyday for months on end and no one informed me that they had a punch card until one of my coworkers who frequents this place informed me. read more

Food is good if in mood for a bagel or sandwich. The coffees are really good, there worth a try. The place is cool and has a drive thru. Service has always been really good when I go. read more

Ordered the Mr Vegan sandwich and garlic bread. Great portions and sauces. There was another slice of garlic bread, but we ate it before I could get a picture. Wish it was open for inside seating but a good spot! I've also had their matcha which was great. read more

Bagel sandwiches are amazing, chai latte's are so good, and my go to açaí bowls are such a treat!

I've tried too many times to look past the shortcomings of this place out of effort of supporting small business. No more. Waiting in a line with a horrible entrance, broken uneven asphalt and whether someone or something is going to hit my car just to deal with overcharging, liberal staff is nothing I need in my day :) read more

Great coffee! But the sandwiches are AMAZING! Drive thru, very friendly folks. Go support them, you won't regret it, promise! read more

Just so freakin good. Everything is good. I've had the bfast bagel; turkey Sandwich and a bunch of drinks. All good.

The breakfast sandwiches are on point ! Coffee is good. Try the hash brown melt it's savory and delicious that's my fav. Only thing is the parking and traffic to get in is a long, better off parking at cvs and walking across the street. Inside is nice not very much inside seating though buts it's nice. Service is great and quick read more

Love the honey bee and Dirty Harry Honey bee blended is delicious. Customer service was always on point read more

I've been coming to Gladly for a while and always loved it, but unfortunately, the experience I had this today was really disappointing. I ordered a sandwich with steak, but when I started eating it, I realized it actually had bacon. I'm Muslim and don't eat pork, so this was incredibly upsetting I had already eaten about a quarter of the sandwich before I realized. I immediately tried calling the store, but no one answered. I drove all the way back, and since the inside was closed, I had to wait in the drive-thru line for 30 minutes just to speak with someone. When I got to the window and tried to explain what happened, I wasn't given the space to finish my sentence. They just told me to pull forward and that they'd remake it, there wasn't any acknowledgment of how serious the mistake was. I also want to say I'm a barista myself. I completely understand that things can get hectic, especially during busy hours. But this didn't feel like a moment of being busy it felt kinda dismissive. read more

Love this place for grabbing my morning chai tea and bagel. It's more expensive than making my own but something about picking up food onw to work makes it taste 10x better lol. They give a huge portion of cream cheese on the bagel so I just eat as I drive. There is a military discount but it hit or miss if the person gives to you while in uniform. I don't ask for it bc I think the servers should auto apply. Anyways the breakfast sandwiches, acai bowls, smoothies, cookies butter latte and grilled cheese are very good too! The drive through can back up into the street but service has always been pretty quick to keep people rolling. read more

This place is always packed, which I would say is the only downside to this place, but I'm so happy I finally tried it because that sandwich is AMAZING. First, I was blown away at the size, the picture doesn't do it justice, it was at least a pound of sandwich. And all the ingredients were so fresh, the bacon was really crispy, which I appreciate, I hate when bacon is chewy. Overall, it was soooo good. The coffe was good too, not my favorite but I can definitely see why people like the flavor so much. Looking forward to trying other things here! read more

The Dirty Harry is to die for. Visiting family in town and we found this place via Yelp. Stopped by everyday after we discovered it. From the description, the Dirty Harry has butter and brown sugar which is explains why it's the most delicious cup of coffee I've had? We did not try the butter beer at universal but IM POSITIVE this beats it. Going to try to the Dirty Harry cold brew before we leave town and the matcha next time I'm in town. read more

I'm not sure if this is a new location or if they recently received a shipment of supplies. It looks fairly new? Some construction on the outside? I'm not sure. But the parking lot drive through situation is a little awkward. Stairs and walkways and parking spots. Supply boxes visible through the windows seems unprofessional. I didn't like it. The menu seems a little gimmicky. Cute names for drinks but you need to read more to find out what's in it. Seems very similar to the Better Buzz coffee shops. I had the bees knees and my husband had the Dirty Harry. They were both way too sweet. I'm sure this spot is great for people who like dessert/treat types of coffees. But it wasn't for me. read more

I hate to write a review like this on Christmas Eve, but I am brutally honest We ordered 2 coffees and a breakfast sandwich The coffees were terrible like fucken terrible I am Sorry I told my partner I'm sorry I can't drink this The guy at the window looks at us and says what do you want me to do ? I ordered another drink just to say I wasn't a total asshole Well ... it was even worse! I took one sip I think there was cloves in it, it was so gross I opened the window tossed that shit out the side of the road and I am not one to liter but I couldn't take it Now the sandwich we asked TWICE to please cut it in half and they said yes and to no surprise it wasn't cut Tater tots were stale asf Sand which was also old If we weren't as hungry as we were I would of tossed the sand which too His coffee was burnt I'd say only thing that was good was the Minute Maid oj with no straw Gladly coffee ? More like sadly coffee Never again !! $27 dollars down the drain and not worth it Don't come here and spend your money read more
