My go to place ! The homemade syrups are the best in San Diego county. Plus the prices are cheaper than any other coffee shop I've been to in a long time.The quality of their coffee is also amazing. You know the person who owns this place actually loves coffee and probably has experience as a barista because to come up with these drinks plus the quality. Amazing. They also hire the best staff. Everyone is so kind, helpful, and friendly. This is my go to place to study twice a week. I won't go anywhere else ! read more

A hidden gem of spring valley! Don't be fooled by the pot holes in the driveway and the panhandlers by the freeway, this coffee shop is thee best! They have a large menu of food options with breakfast served all day until close. The best part is the convenient drive thru but they also have a large cafe indoors if you want to study or hang out. Their full coffee bar offers customizable drinks with non-dairy options for my lactose-intolerant girlies. My personal favorites are the iced moonlight magic latte with oat milk, the moonlight magic cold brew, and the iced bee's knees with oat milk. Today I had the ultimate breakfast sandwich + the works and it was just okay compared to their other sandwich options so I recommend the pesto sandwich or any of the vegan sandwiches. Overall, a 10/10 in my heart!! read more

Gladly Coffee - Deluxe breakfast sandwich + the works - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Spring Valley, California

The Dirty Harry (drink) is amazing. Very sweet, so if you don't like sweet coffee, steer away from it. For me, it is the best! Also ordered the avocado toast and my husband ordered the ultimate breakfast sandwich. Both FABULOUS and fairly priced compared to other similar items at other coffee shops. The only downside is, their indoor dining area is closed (based on other reviews, it seems to have been closed for a long time now), only the drive thru is open and therefore the line was quite long. It did move fairly fast, but my husband and I initially walked up to try and eat in and found that it was closed, the hard way. Note, this is my second time trying it. The first time; my husband got me the lavender latte and that drink left a lot to be desired. Overall, great coffee shop. Highly recommend. read more

Pretty sure i have been here before after a vet visit a couple years ago. I got the Dirty Harry latte as a Harry Potter and butter beer lover. Though the drink itself is supposed to be a take on butter beer, i didn't really feel like it matched but i still think it's a pretty decent latte to drink off of the flavor notes alone. read more

Wanted a quick bite during a trip to San Diego-- our favorite meal of the trip! Reasonably priced and absolutely delicious.

Absolutely one of the best drinks we have ever had. We both ordered their Dirty Harry latte and it was incredible. Also picked up a couple breakfast sandwiches. Incredible place. We will be back and hoping they offer gift cards so we can spread their business into our employees and friends/family. read more

Don't miss the first driveway for the drive thru entrance like me! Once I made 3 left turns back around ...to try it one more time... almost missed the speaker to put in the order.. the crazy rain this morning did not help.. but after putting in the order, the service was great, and coffee was amazing! Would recommend the Dirty Harry latte if you like your coffee on the sweeter side. read more

Okay listen if you are in the mood for some really delicious coffee and grab and go food then you should try Gladly's Coffee. This 5-star coffee spot pleasantly surprised me, despite initially avoiding it because of long lines. I'm so glad I finally gave it a shot! I enjoyed my experience so much that I returned the next day and once again loved my order. I've sampled the Bacon Turkey Jack Bagel Sandwich, Chorizo BreakFEASTo Sandwich, Cranberry Orange Scone, Mr. Vegan Breakfast Sandwich, and both smoothies (Tropical Green and Mango Berry Citrus)- all incredibly tasty. Just a heads up, though: due to renovations, it's currently drive-thru only. Still, the staff is friendly, and the line moves swiftly. It would be ideal if they could manage the line better to prevent people from cutting in, as I noticed during my visit. read more

Great local coffee shop in the Casa de Oro area! Beautifully decorated inside and they also have a drive-through, decent size parking lot.

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.

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

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

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

Gladly Coffee is really a great place to get your morning coffee. I would come here way more often when I lived in Spring Valley, and still crave it moving more central San Diego. Their coffee is rich and always flavorful, I stick to usually a flavored Iced Latte of some sort and haven't even been disappointed. I've only ever had an issue when K tried holiday drinks and they were alittle sweet, but it is the holidays. The food is also really delicious and made fresh. I usually get the Spicy Jack and it always hits! They offer standard drink sizes, not "huge" corporate sizing. 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

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

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

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

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

Just moved to this area and wanted to try this place. The line was long but moved fast.

Pretty good prices. My new coffee 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!

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

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

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
