I've been on a mission to try every Matcha Einspanner I can find in San Diego and Good Source popped up in my search. Others have raved about their matcha drinks so I had to give it a try. After the first sip, absolutely worth the hype. The matcha had a vibrant color and tasted smooth and earthy without being bitter, which tells me they're using quality matcha. The cream topping didn't hold firm like other places but still added richness and light sweetener, creating the perfect balance with the matcha underneath. The drink was beautifully presented and tasted just as good as it looked. The café has a welcoming atmosphere, friendly staff, and a great selection of specialty drinks. If you're a matcha lover or looking to try an Einspanner this one is worth a try. read more

Pleasantly surprised by how much I liked their matcha here! Everything else fell short tho. I visited on a Saturday morning with a friend and the line was out the door. Limited parking. The employees were friendly and seemed to know a lot of customers. I ordered a regular matcha latte and a pandan croissant. We were able to get a table inside and it seemed like a lot of people were working. The matcha came out quickly and it was really good quality! Very strong and not too sweet. Pretty sure they forgot my pastry though, it took a while for it to come out and it wasn't even warm when I asked for it to be toasted. I recognize the pastries from other cafes in the area so I know they don't make them in house, but the croissant was not good - it wasn't fresh, the pandan was artificial, and difficult to eat. Wouldn't order that again. read more

This place makes really bomb espresso. You can tell they train their staff how to pull a proper shot and properly steam milk. It's crazy how many places, especially in Escondido, overlook this simple matter. I've yet to be let down by this place. Can't recommend enough. read more

This is a nice space to come and catch up with a friend or do some work in Escondido! There's a good amount of seating without feeling crowded in the space. Service was friendly and they were playing throwback songs that brought up all the nostalgia. I ordered the matcha einspanner which was a little more cream-heavy than I was expecting, but it also might just be because I've gotten used to double matchas with stronger matcha flavor haha. Overall it's a nice spot and would recommend visiting if you're in Escondido! read more

Good Source Coffee - Cold brew with pistachio cold foam and ice latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Escondido, California

First time to try this place. I had a hot dirty chai. 1. Ordered extra hot, it came out a bit hotter than warm 2. Asked if it's very sweet, was told not really but I came out I can only taste the syrup, can't taste the chai at all, no coffee taste either. For almost $7 a drink, it tasted like a sweet syrup with milk. This place is not for my coffee. read more

A neighborhood coffee shop with excellent coffee and matcha drinks. My husband and I have visited multiple times and usually visit around 7-9am. The service is friendly and we love their recommendations. A few favorites are the strawberry matcha, the dulce de leche latte with pumpkin cold foam, and the cinnamon bun. We haven't stayed too long in the store but there's plenty of open tables for work to get done. Great music choices as well. read more

What a cute little café with such warm and friendly staff. The owner is incredibly kind and welcoming, which really adds to the overall experience. Even though there was a steady flow of people coming in and out, it wasn't difficult to find a place to sit. They have a nice mix of stools and tables that work well for studying or getting some work done. The latte was delicious, and I'll definitely be coming back the next time I'm in this neighborhood. read more

Great drinks! Not sure if I just keep catching them on an off morning, but it's been twice now that the employees were not very welcoming. It felt very cliquey and dismissive, which set the tone for the rest of my time. Used to go often, but is likely not my first choice anymore. read more

This place always has delicious coffee. You won't leave disappointed! The seasonal lattes and iced matcha are delicious

Tried their chorizo breakfast sandwich. Good flavor. Wish the egg was a bit more seasoned but overall a solid choice. About 8 bucks, which felt a bit steep considering the size of the sandwich. Have some good matcha options and a dulce de leche latte I plan to try another time. Staff was welcoming and the location was kept clean with a calm mood. They are located in a plaza with plenty of parking. Several indoor chairs/tables are available. Good spot to hang out at and enjoy a quick treat. Tip: I'd recommend ordering extra salt/seasoning on the egg for the breakfast wrap. read more

Finally a real coffee shop on the North side. I have a regular vanilla late and it was really good. Can taste the quality of coffee bean. Service was awesome friendly and good recommendation. Super cool seeing college students n business people meeting and working at a local shop not a big chain. Open seating inside few outside also in a small shopping center. read more

Good Source Coffee - Banana matcha 10/10! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Escondido, California

Good Source coffee has become one of my favorite places to grab a matcha as a non-coffee drinker. Their matcha here is ceremonial grade and their syrups are made in house--all very delicious. I typically opt for the matcha einspanner here. They have a fairly large parking lot outside so parking shouldn't be a problem. The inside is also fairly large, though many people end up sitting and staying, making it a bit more crowded inside. It does just attest to the warm, friendly environment they've created here though. Ordering is generally quick and Ive never had problems with my drinks! read more

I had originally went there with a couple of friends to catch up. The environment was completely like what you would expect from a coffee shop, it was calm, but I wouldn't say quiet, but there was light, chattering and soft music playing in the background. Service was amazing after ordering coffee would come out fresh and you would be able to smell it. if you are looking for a place to study, I would say this is one of the places I would recommend. read more

This place is always spotless and super welcoming every time I visit. Today, I went with the honey organic espresso with almond milk, and it was the perfect choice for a cool, cloudy mid-50s morning. I've been here a few times now, and this drink might be my new favorite. I usually prefer my coffee iced, but there's something about a warm cup here that just hits differently. I expected it to be a little bitter since honey and espresso don't usually hide the bold flavor of the beans, but the balance was absolutely perfect -- the sweetness of the honey paired beautifully with the espresso. I'll definitely be ordering this again, and next time I'm planning to try it hot just to see how the flavor changes. My only small wish is that they'd open a little earlier for us early birds -- waiting until 7 a.m. can feel like forever when you're craving that first cup! Overall, an amazing spot with great vibes, delicious coffee, and friendly service. Highly recommend giving it a try! read more

I can't believe I haven't reviewed this place considering I go at least once a week. I literally get excited to get coffee here every time because they never miss. Whether that's their customer service or drinks, they hit the spot every time. The mocha is what I always get, and I'm obsessed with the texture of the milk !! Like freakin velvet over here. I love the different seating too, the music being played, and the staff!!! I've been to so many coffee shops in Portland (which is supposed to be coffee land) and none of them are like good source. read more

The staff is professional and friendly. The environment has many different cozy areas along with tables for larger groups. It was not just a great cup of coffee but it was a wonderful experience as well. Thanks for the Zen! read more

Saw this place on social media and made the drive up! Last time I came, they were out of matchas around 1PM on a Saturday so I was disappointed and made sure to come early this time at 10:30AM and boy they were busy! I ordered their new seasonal banana matcha and matcha einspanner with vanilla syrup, both with oat milk (an extra $.50). My favorite of the two was the banana matcha, which honestly didn't taste too different from the einspanner. I didn't taste much banana in the banana cream. The einspanner was pretty milky and the matcha wasn't too sweet. Decent drinks but not my top choice, I would come back if I was in the area! read more

My Mocha with oatmilk was very good and the employees were so friendly, but it was quite loud inside from the music, all the people talking, and some tree cutting going outside for more than an hour while I was here, so I had to leave; I'm very noise sensitive and it was far from quiet or relaxing. I was shocked at how many people were here on a Monday morning. read more

Good coffee spot deep in north Escondido. They serve lattes, tea lattes, pastries such as concha & croissants & more. Friendly service. Lots of tables to get work done. Blueberry Matcha: One of their specials. I was worried because I thought it would be bitter because they use ceremonial matcha but the blueberry made it slightly sweet & delicious! read more

I've been here twice already and will be back again! This little coffee shop is a gem in this area. I've gotten the matcha einspanner and the London fog which are two of my favorite drinks and they executed so well! The baristas are also really talented and enthusiastic with their latte art. Thank you so much! read more

Needed a WFH spot in the area and stumbled across Good Source! I came in around 10am and secured a corner spot at the bar table against the window. Inside is pretty spacious with plenty of tables along with some seating outside. Also, I didn't have any issue finding an outlet for my devices. I ordered an iced blueberry latte with oat milk. The latte itself was creamy and delicious as a latte, but I couldn't really taste much of the blueberry flavor. Service at the register was nice! Overall, a great spot to meet with friends, get work done, or quickly grab a drink! It can get pretty noisy though! read more

Good Source is a new coffee shop owned by two of the friendliest people I've met. The husband-and-wife duo happened to be in the café when my girlfriends and I stopped by after a hike at Daley Ranch, which is about 10 minutes away. So, what makes Good Source... so good? I'm happy to share! As soon as I walked in, I noticed how spacious and clean the place was, and the finishing touches on the decor were beautiful. I ordered the Honey Latte with Oat Milk, and it was the perfect way to kick-start my morning! One of my friends, who isn't a big coffee drinker, ordered a Mocha with a half-shot and said it was the best she's had. They offer both vegan and non-vegan options. For a treat, I chose the vegan Chai Donut, recommended by Good Source's friendly cashier, and it was delish. Parking was easy to find since the coffee shop is located in a plaza with plenty of spaces. The staff and owners are incredibly helpful and kind. I'm thrilled this coffee shop has opened; based on my experience, it's a fantastic addition to the community. If you're looking for a place to study, get some work done, or simply enjoy great coffee, tea, and pastries, definitely check out Good Source! If I lived in Escondido, I'd be here weekly. Whenever I'm in the area and in need of a coffee buzz, I'll definitely be stopping by. read more

This place is super cute! Their Matcha strawberry is very good! I told them I needed to limit my caffine intake and they were able to accomodate. It is a little pricey but it is still reasonable with all costs increasing in this economy. It's very chic inside and there were a lot of people here. I feel like they come here for coffee and to do their work. There were so many people on their laptops. Seasonal items looks great, I went during the end of February so Im not sure if they still have their seasonal items. Highly recommend and look forward to the next time. read more
