My wife and I received passes to the Ibrik/Cezve (Turkish) coffee workshop and had such a wonderful experience. Memet has an incredible depth of knowledge and you can tell he truly loves what he does. We had wonderful conversations and learned a great deal about Ibrik/Cezve process. And, although I claim to know my fair share about coffee, Memet taught me a thing or 2. The workshop was intimate and well laid out. All the information was clear, concise and easy to follow and went far beyond 'this is how you make coffee'. We talked about every factor of making a good cup and experimented with different variables to achieve different results. I've already recommended Memli to several people and plan to come back for another workshop with some other coffee lovers. If you want to take your knowledge beyond just drinking coffee this is the place to go.

I especially love their pumpkin spice lattes served in an actual small pumpkin. They're only offered for a few weekends in October, so make sure to check their social media for availability and come early before they sell out! They also make adorable pumpkin-shaped bagels with pumpkin cream cheese this time of year,, and this year they had pumpkin cake pops that look like little pumpkins. How cute is that?! The space is attractive, clean, and nicely decorated, with several tables inside and a couple outside. Even with a line out the door, the service was fast, friendly, and efficient. Delicious coffee, festive fall treats, and such a fun seasonal experience. I'm glad my friend and I got to enjoy it again this year, it has become a fun October tradition for us!

My friend and I have been seeing so many reels on IG about S3 Cafe and had to check it out for…read moretheir Not Your Basic PSL and Pumpkin Bagels. We had a Julian trip planned, and specifically had to plan to leave early to be able to make it to this place by 4pm, since their hours are super limited. Not worth it at all, we were extremely dissapointed in how overhyped this place was on social media. They spent way more money on influencers than effort into their food and drinks, and overall customer experience here. We were also extremely dissapointed on the so very limited dates they offer the Not Your Basic PSL, which was advertised so much on social media - but didn't specify it was only available on very specific dates. Ambiance - tables weren't clean. They weren't even busy, but when I sat down, they didn't even clean after guests before us. I had to get napkins and clean the table myself. Restroom wasn't particularly dirty, it just doesn't look very nice. Same with the whole store in general, its clean and minimalistic, but honestly way too sterile and lacks personality. Service from the staff - very eh, I wanted my drink and bagel for dine-in, but they assumed to-go (didn't ask me/I didn't clarify when I ordered), then seemed a little impatient with me when I asked them to put my pumpkin bagel on an actual plate for the presentation for pics, rather than a plastic to-go box. I ordered a Hot 16oz Honey Rose Latte, Pumpkin Bagel, and got a $1 Pumpkin Bagel Sticker. The Honey Rose Latte was good. The pumpkin bagel sticker is cute. The Pumpkin Bagel itself looks pretty for pics in the fall, but it was terrible and so not worth it - I could've done that better myself. Pumpkin flavor wasn't even that strong for the bagel, it almost just tasted like a plain bagel with orange food coloring shaped like a pumpkin, and they just spread pumpkin cream cheese on it. For $7.25, I could've gotten my own cinnamon raisin or blueberry bagels, spread peanut butter and jelly/jam/preserves, added nuts/granola, berries, and maybe even mint leaves to compliment the jelly/jam/preserves. I'm not even into cooking, but if I can do it better myself - you know this place is absolute crap. Extremely dissapointed with my experience here. Don't waste your time and money here. Would not recommend and will definitely not be back!

The caramel monkey was my favorite because it was super soft, fresh, and the cookie had great flavor. The Dubai cake was good but really rich. I definitely need milk or tea with this one.

I was visiting San Diego and came across Matcha Maiko, so l decided to stop by because I'd been…read morewanting to try their matcha. When I walked in, the kiosks weren't working, so ! waited at the front for someone to take my order. Instead, all I could hear was an older lady loudly screaming at one of the employees. It was loud enough that I could hear everything from the front counter, and it honestly gave me secondhand embarrassment. The employee was being embarrassed in front of everyone in the store, which made for a really uncomfortable atmosphere. Because of the confusion, I ended up ordering through their website instead. Unfortunately, the drink was disappointing. They added a huge scoop of strawberry syrup that completely overpowered the drink. I went there to try Matcha Maiko's matcha, not a cup full of strawberry syrup. On top of that, the syrup wasn't even mixed in properly, so l kept getting mouthfuls of syrup at the bottom I was really looking forward to trying this place, but between the uncomfortable experience in the store and the poorly made drink, it wasn't the experience I had hoped for.

I treated myself to a lavender latte during my visit to power me through a few hours of work while waiting for my car to be serviced nearby. The latte was delicious, but a little too sweet for my taste. I wish there was an option to make it less sweet. It's possible that it was an option, but I didn't know about it. If you like the taste of coffee to come out more when enjoying an espresso drink, the lavender latte may be too sweet to your liking. The ambiance is perfect for a work day or even a intimate conversation with a friend.
