The matcha was delicious with a generous pumpkin spice topping that you could taste in every sip! However, their toast was incredible and would come back just for this! The vegan ricotta was so creamy and the tomatoes were perfectly sweet! Wowww!! Service: The cashier taking my order was so kind and told me about her recommendations and thanks to her, I discovered this incredible toast! Ambiance: This cafe is lively with some tables inside to study/work and a clean bathroom! There is free, strong wifi posted on the side of the glass showcase. Even after the cafe closes, this WIFI is reliable if you sit outside and work! Lastly, liked that they were open till 6 PM which felt like generous hours to study/work! Please come here for a wonderful catch up with a friend or to study/work! Please try their incredible drinks and food! Really hope they open a Compa Coffee Roasters in OC as well!

The line was pretty long, and the wait for our food was even longer, so definitely be prepared to wait if you're coming during a busy time. That said, the atmosphere was great and the overall experience was still enjoyable. I'd definitely come back and give them another try -- hopefully with cold foam next time!

Their Chula Vista location says permanently closed. And this location says temporarily closed. I doubt it's temporary. My husband and I are saddened, because they truly have the best coffee in town besides the Kona Mountain Coffee in Hawaii. Now, if my speculation is incorrect I will update my review. I'm glad we found this place a few months ago and we enjoyed their coffee and service. Mahalo!

There was a problem with the bill, unfortunately I didn't notice it until I had paid. I immediately attempted to get a refund but it wouldn't go through. I was informed it would take a few days to process. After a few days, it didn't process, I went back to find out what was wrong, I was told it may take up to two weeks to explore the situation. Two weeks and I didn't hear anything I went back was informed it would probably take another two weeks to explore the circumstances, long story short, two weeks have turned into almost 4 months and I still haven't received my money. I don't know their financial issues, but if they're desperate to build their capital they should probably set up a GoFundMe page instead of trying to drain an old man's bank account.

Most mornings, they are conveniently located in the lot near the Poway Costco Gas Station, so why not fill up and grab yourself a fresh cup of coffee, or any other drinks that will tickle your fancy? They micro roast their coffee beans EVERY morning, so if you're into great tasting coffee and delicious lattes this place is for you! Also, my review wouldn't be complete or appropriate without mentioning Brian and Lilliana's stellar customer service!! On top of making a mean Matcha Latte with a shot of espresso (PLEEEEAAASE try this!), they are super sweet and genuinely love getting to know their customers. They take pride in their craft and makes sure their customers are satisfied with their order! Thank you Brian and Lilliana for blessing San Diego with the Bean Coffee Roasters Truck! Also, other milk alternatives including Oat Milk (yay!) are available here!!!

It's right next to the 5 north freeway on-ramp off Roselle Street in Sorrento Valley, in a small strip mall beside Lucky Bolt. When I thought about it a bit more, I realized it's at the center of a busy on-ramp, next to a trolley stop, and also along a popular cycling path. The coffee is really tasty here! I've tried the cold brew, americano, and mocha. The cold brew has a very balanced flavor profile, without any signs of being over-steeped. The americano is just as balanced and is carefully crafted. The mocha was really good! A standout forsure. Prepared with a tummy little chocolate drizzle on top. Seating is limited, though they do offer both indoor and outdoor (with an approximate capacity of about 20 total). The staff are friendly and lively. Overall it's a cute, well-curated, and vibey little spot in an interesting location. Definitely recommend trying this spot out whether you're a coffee lover or someone who passes through the general vicinity from time to time.

You can tell they put care into making every drink. What stood out the most this visit was how fast everything was. The time I went, there was only one girl working, and I know it gets busy, especially when the high school students come but she handled everything so well, making drinks quickly, staying organized, and still getting every order right. Service is always friendly too. She was welcoming, patient, and kept a positive attitude the whole time. Shoutout to her for working so hard it definitely didn't go unnoticed and made the experience even better. The place itself is clean with a nice, chill vibe, making it a great spot to relax. Overall, great drinks, fast service, and a really positive experience. With how consistent and enjoyable my visits have been, I'll definitely be becoming one of the regulars!

It was well balanced, and not too sweet (which is a good thing). I normally don't get boba, but I got it this time around because it's cheap and it was surprisingly good! We came like an hour before closing and it was pretty fresh and chewy. Service was a tad slow, but the ambiance was nice. It's tucked deep into a somewhat dead plaza so it was a bit eerie going there at night, lol. The workers were extremely nice and patient as well. Would likely come again to try other drinks. Have to come here early though, as they close earlier than other boba shops.

I came to Nova Boba on a mission to find the best Vietnamese coffee and cheese foam in San Diego,…read moreand this place absolutely delivered. I ordered the Vietnamese coffee with cheese foam and it instantly reminded me of Saigon Coffee in North Park. It has that same rich and bold flavor that true Vietnamese coffee lovers look for. The cheese foam here is my second favorite in the city, right behind Maiko Cafe in Mira Mesa, which says a lot because their foam is legendary. What makes Nova Boba my new number one spot is the simple fact that I can finally get both Vietnamese coffee and cheese foam in one drink without having to chase down a pop up at a farmers market. I was originally planning on heading to the market for that little booth that serves my favorite combo, but I am so glad I found Nova Boba instead. Now I can come here any time I want without depending on a weekend schedule. The shop itself is quiet, clean, and surprisingly inexpensive compared to many other boba places I have tried. It has a calm atmosphere that makes it easy to relax or catch up with a friend. The staff is friendly and the menu has so many options that I already know I will be back. Next time I am trying the strawberry matcha because it looked amazing. If you love Vietnamese coffee or cheese foam or you are just looking for a new spot that will not disappoint, I highly recommend stopping by Nova Boba. It is officially part of my rotation now. Service was quick and place was cute.

When I received my drink, it was the most bitter house milk tea I've ever had. I've had the house tea here (and many other places) and never had it that bitter before. I pulled a U turn, came back and informed him of how bitter it was. He offered to place more sugar in it. I didn't trust how concentrated the house tea was and told him I'd rather get a different drink. Now this is when things turned sour! Dude scoffed at me, said "ok you want a free drink" while shaking his head. Dude, I paid for a subpar drink, which I took a sip or two. I've never returned a boba drink in my life! For him to pull off that attitude was totally unneeded. Seeing his response, I told him to put sugar on the drink I already purchased, informing him that if it's still bitter that I would come back. He refused and said that he's a "'minimum wage worker" and asked again what drink I wanted. At this point I just told him I wanted a better attitude and just left with no drink, including the one I paid for. Minimum wage is no excuse for minimum attitude dude! We've all had minimum wage jobs before, that's no excuse for the terrible experience I went through today.
