Cutest coffee shop! When you walk in you can see plenty of plants & decor that make it feel super cozy! The staff were super friendly & one of them helped me pick a drink & she recommended the banana pudding with cold foam. Prices are reasonable & affordable. They have pastries as well. We came in Saturday morning & they were super busy including SDPD officers coming in for a coffee. Definitely coming here again!

Walking in you'll discover this cute cozy coffee shop with books, plants, art and decor giving you a modern bohemian type of vibe which I love. It's a great place to read your book or get some work done on your laptop. My favorite drink so far is the Pistachio White Mocha. It's the BEST pistachio coffee drink I've ever had, and probably one of the best coffee drinks I've ever had, period. And I've had it both hot and iced. Mmm! It sucks that Joehns is so far away from me, otherwise I'd be here everyday!

Honey cinnamon latte
April H.

I was given a gift card here and was so excited to try it. Walking in, the vibes are perfection. Perfect spot to hang out and get work done. It's bright, airy, and quiet. I got an iced honey cinnamon latte with cold foam and it was AMAZING. They make their syrups themselves and you can taste the difference. Service was fast and friendly. I will definitely be back.

What a great spot! Such a warm greeting. And delicious well balanced drinks. Especially loved my iced honey cinnamon latte. Highly recommend if in the area.

1000% yes I wholeheartedly recommend this cafe!!!! The drinks are phenomenal and light bite selections are fantastic as well. I'm beyond glad I found my neighborhood cafe!! John was one who warmly greeted me and provided details of their drink and food selections and Joe was caring! Like whaaaaaa, their passion for their cafe and community is unmatched!!! Plenty of parking spaces and seating inside! I can't wait to try more items!!!

Where to even begin... Joehns has easily become my favorite coffee shop of all time. From the welcoming atmosphere of the shop itself, to the delicious coffee, to the unforgettably kind owners Joe and John. Joehns is very involved with its community, including custom made artwork, sculptures, mugs--that alone makes you feel like you are a part of something, a part of San Diego, a part of Joehns! I cannot conclude this review without discussing how overwhelmed with appreciation I am with the owners. We spoke with John as we learned more about the shop, and he gave us Happy Beans, a sort of lucky bean or a talisman, which I will undoubtedly carry with me as a reminder to be the kindness I saw in John. Prior to leaving, John stopped my sister and I to offer us each a free bouquet of flowers Be the change you want to see in the world. Thank you Joe and John for such an incredible experience and thank you for building Joehns with such love and care. Every customer feels it and carries it with them! You are both so very appreciated!

Iced cinnamon honey latte

I finally got the opportunity to stop by, and I am beyond happy that I did! This coffee shop was a breath of fresh air. I think we've gotten used to apathetic service and expensive coffees, but this shop is breaking the pattern. Immediately upon walking in, I was warmly greeted and asked if I had any questions. I love not feeling rushed to order and like me actually liking my choices matters. I opted for the cinnamon honey latte, a mini burrito, and a spinach pastry. The entire ordering process was great! Sometimes I feel a little timid to make small talk, but I received nothing but kind vibes as we chatted. If I'm being honest, I usually feel let down when I buy a coffee and end up not drinking much of it - then the cycle repeats. But I am being SO honest when I say this coffee is my new favorite! It's subtly sweet with small bursts of cinnamon, a smooth taste, and is well presented. The mini burrito and pastry were great as well! I needed a pick-me-up while working and this did just that. I saw quite a few people working inside, which I can understand because it's very cozy and well decorated inside. If I wasn't working, I might've enjoyed my drink and food in-house. So glad I found such an incredible hidden gem! If not just for the coffee, but for the top notch service! Will absolutely be back & suggesting to my friends and family. Thank you, Joehns!

Banana latte with oat milk and the breakfast burrito
Veronica

Service was amazing! They were so friendly and so welcoming. The banana latte was so good and I love the mini breakfast burrito. Great little cafe to do some work and grab a bite or a drink.

Iced latte

Joehns is a very nice coffee shop, not your typical coffee spot you may be used to in San Diego. You feel a nice vibe of home and comfort when you enter, plants and lots everywhere and lots of friendly faces. It feels like you're visiting your favorite uncles or aunt's house. The gentlemen who took our order was very nice and offered glass and ceramic mugs for our coffee, which are always a huge plus when experiencing coffee for me, I love that and I wish more coffee spots provided that instead of typical plastic mugs. Our jalapeno and cheddar bagel was made by their neighbor at home and it was delicious, it was served with cream cheese and jelly on the side. The iced latte was solid, it was good and refreshing and it got the job done. My mom's Americano was delicious she said, nice and strong and served hot. Thank you for the experience Joehns.

It's not often that you leave a coffee shop on a HIGH because the owner was so so kind and made our first visit here so special. I came here with my sister, i ordered an iced vanilla latte and she got a honey cinnamon latte. Immediately, the coffee was amazing and we loved it and knew that we would be coming back. However, our experience only kept getting better as one of the owners, John, started making conversation with us and we quickly found out how special this place truly is. He takes great pride in making it a perfect place for the community and incorporates a lot of cute and personal details in every corner of the coffee shop. We had a great conversation and he ended up giving us cute "happy beans" which immediately made us happy. AND THEN, as we were leaving, he stopped us and told us to pick out a bouquet each to take home with us, for free! 20/10 stars all around experience. We left this place on cloud 9. Kindness is what holds the world together. Thank you Joe & John for creating this gem of a place in San Diego! Although this place is a 30min drive from where we live, we KNOW we will be coming back because of how special John made it for us. Thank you thank you thank you!

Cold drink menu

Really amazing drinks, good food not sourced from grocery stores, and super cute atmosphere. This coffee shop is the best thing in the Webster/Oak Park area and is absolutely worth driving out of your way to go here. The owners are so nice and to the amazing atmosphere.

Felina V.

I'm extremely excited to have such a rad coffee shop nearby. Joehns feels like a place to actually spend some time and slow down ~ the book selection looks like it came right off of my own bookshelf, plants and pottery scattered throughout, kind and welcoming staff, and of course, excellent coffee ~ looking forward to returning soon.

Seasonal orange vanilla latte 10/10

Their seasonal menu was phenomenal! The people working were great too they offered our dogs pup cups and brought them outside to us where we were sitting too. For sure a hidden gem where you would least expect it!

I don't often write reviews, despite never being at a loss for words. But do you know that feeling…read morewhen you appreciate something so much that it becomes impossible not to share it? I'm talking about that 'scream it from the mountaintops' level of adulation and praise. Like a book that stunned you to your core and the only way to relive that feeling is to get others to read it as well. University Coffee is that book. Proudly on display right around the corner. I was recommended this coffee spot by a fellow gym goer after a heated game of pick-up basketball. She told me she basically lives there (turns out she owns it) and through some strange magic I felt a need to find out more. Heck, I'm hopelessly addicted to caffeine - like any good working-class stiff. Let's give it a go. From the moment I walked in, I was enthralled. As if someone had carved a section of nirvana and placed it on a cozy street corner. Entering, calming music set the tone as the art and ambience emanated warmth. Being indecisive, I slowly trundled up to the register where a sharp and welcoming gentleman greeted me like I had been a regular frequenting for years. His name was Allen and this man made me feel like the long journey I was on could wait and I might find respite in this place. This is where I became hooked. Seeing my indecision the woman behind him (Angela, who I recognized from her unfortunate loss at the basketball courts) stepped towards me smiling to say hello and ask what I was in the mood for. I attempted to sound sure and asked for the special that day which was a delicious sounding matcha latte that I requested iced. Deep regret filled my heart as I focused long enough to observe the menu, seeing a pantheon of unique drinks that all would likely make my head spin. Almost clairvoyantly detecting my fear of missing out; she recommended some of the food options, making me an insanely delicious, filled croissant. She gave me an extra because she could somehow tell that I'm perpetually hungry. Not leaving anything to chance I opted for the fresh baked cookie sitting on the counter shelf as well. As I briefly waited and enjoyed my order, people came and left all seemingly captured by that same feeling washing over me. Bliss. I've been back to Uni Coffee multiple times now and each time I get to enjoy another handcrafted drink recommended almost specifically for me. I sit and enjoy the regulars sharing their stories with Angela as she listens intently and shares her thoughts. I curse myself for spending years making instant coffee at home or picking up some formulaic drink after waiting in a queue while the people around me stare at their phones. They say the best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago, but second best is today. With that, I thank the girl on the basketball court for teaching me it's not too late to appreciate the good things in life. P.S A customers dog came up to me and let me pet it for a really long time while I was there on that first visit. This may or may not have affected my review of this establishment.

The flights come out in metal racks that were intended as candle holders. Creative use. I chose the ESPRESSO LATTE FLIGHT: The wife got the MATCHA FLIGHT with the same fruits. We sipped each other's flight for fun to share thoughts. STRAWBERRY: -- this one probably works the least ideal but still works -- they need thicker straws because the strawberry puree shrapnel gets stuck...so we sipped from the glass and used the straws intermittently -- the strawberry FOAM is bomb as are all the foams RATING = A- BLUEBERRY: -- a similar experience to strawberry but it works a touch better with blueberry morphing with bold coffee better RATING = A BANANA LATTE: -- banana chip on top nice touch -- the softness of the banana morphed perfectly with the espresso and the matcha for each set...these just worked together the best -- the wife does not even like banana but stated this fact RATING = A+ COCONUT LATTE: -- if you can handle the highest sweet factor of all it will pay dividends -- this was my favorite overall tasting one -- the toasted coconut flakes put it over the top -- sweetness is past medium and leaning high RATING = A+ Overall, I preferred the espresso flight, but I prefer coffee to tea typically anyway. NOTE: These flights are only available June 15, 2026, thru August 30, 2026, per flyer in store. STAFF are friendly and efficient and seem to care about providing a great product and experience. The AC inside needs a repair technician, however.
