    Vietnamese iced coffee
    Norma D.

    Stopped by for a to go coffee. I went with a Vietnamese Iced Coffee. Was really good and not overly sweet. They also have food options if you're wanting a quick bite to eat. It's a nice addition to the area. Great place to meet up with friends. I'll be back.

    Great coffee shop! Coffee, food and drinks!

    Such a cute coffee shop! The atmosphere is warm, inviting, and relaxing, and the coffee was absolutely delicious. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and everything felt fresh and thoughtfully prepared. It's the perfect spot to grab a great cup of coffee, catch up with a friend, or simply enjoy a little quiet time. I'll definitely be coming back!

    I'm so happy this cute cafe opened in lakeside! The coffee is amazing, the açaí bowl was delicious and they blended peanut butter into it for me. The employees are sweet and efficient.

    From the owners of the Santos Coffee House in North Park, they bring this community oriented coffee house in the heart of Lakeside in East County, San Diego. They roast their own coffee and it's some good stuff indeed. I had a dark roast with my Cafe au Lait and it was great. It was full bodied and offers a strong robust flavor, yet smoothed to drink. They also offer a variety of breakfast and lunch items. To enjoyed with my coffee, I ordered the "Outlaw" bagel sandwich. The offer a large variety of bagels and I went with the whole wheat. The outlaw came with the bagel, pesto cream cheese, fresh tomatoes for $7.50. The bagel sandwich was delicious and I really enjoyed the texture of the wheat bagel. The service was great. The people here were very welcoming and were not shy to strike up a conversation. They offer a good amount of parking. This place is a great addition to the community of Lakeside, Ca.

    I didn't realize there was a coffee shop in lakeside! This place is a gem, I love the style of the interior and the menu. There are many drinks to choose from, including food. The girls provided excellent customer service for us right before closing too. I really appreciated it.

    Banana Bread Chai
    Heather D.

    Great, local coffee spot! It's nice to see new spots show up in the area and even better when they taste delicious. For breakfast, I tied the Spicy Coyote on a Cheddar Jalapeño bagel. The tomato on this tasted so fresh. For coffee, I had the Banana Bread Chai and it was so good!! Definitely a sweet coffee drink but very good chai. There was plenty of seating, including tables and bar top. It was nice to see people reading and working. They are also pet friendly!

    I heart Lakeside Social! This was my first time in and I'll definitely be back. I loved the variety on their coffee menu, and they also have plenty of food options like bagels and sandwiches. This morning I ordered the Vietnamese iced coffee and their signature Flying Donkey hot coffee - both were delicious. The two women working were so inviting and genuine, and we had such a great conversation. They honestly made the experience and are a big reason I'll return. The space itself is incredible. It has a really cool vibe and great music. The couches are so comfortable and it's the perfect environment to get some work done or relax and chat with friends.

    El cap sandwich, acai bowls and blended chai

    This place is soooo good! The staff are always very friendly and welcoming. There is always ample seating, even when it is busy! The vibe and decor are sooo cute! We love what they have done with the place My daughter loves their acai bowls and blended chai. The sandwiches are a must try. We will be back to try more off the menu

    Bagel sandwich

    Look at this bagel sandwich, I mean come on the picture speaks for itself. Went in yesterday and the people working were super friendly and helpful. Food was good. I don't remember the name of what I ordered but it was with turkey and on a jalepeno bagel. Didn't try any drinks yet but I will definitely be back!!

    Açaí bowl

    This is the best açai bowl I've had in a long time-it tasted super fresh- service was great and the recommendation was exactly what I asked for not super sweet but not super bitter. I got the giddyup and it was fantastic.

    As always - great, friendly service and delicious food! I love that they are open early, too!

    Great drinks and bagel sandwiches! Love that there's activities for the kids like game tables, board games, coloring.

    I wasn't buying into the hype about this place because, honestly, the hype around places is usually…read moreexaggerated. That all changed when my wife brought me here and we left with two dozen donuts! These donuts are unbelievably good! The texture is soft, fresh, and perfectly light. The flavors aren't overly sweet, and they have just the right amount of glaze or whatever topping you choose. Everything was just right. The staff was also incredibly friendly and welcoming. They greeted us with big smiles and great customer service, which definitely makes you want to come back and buy another box. Great place, great donuts, and great service. I highly recommend checking them out! My doctor is definitely not going to like this review, but I'll definitely be coming back.

    I was asked to bring in special donuts for my workplace. I knew this place had donuts and really…read moregood cream puffs, or so I thought. I had asked one of the ladies for a dozen random donuts. She crammed almost all the same kind into a tiny box so all the donuts were squished. The cream puffs were so overfilled no one could eat them and no one did. What should have had a tablespoon of jelly had about 4 tablespoons, quite possibly more, no exaggeration. Way more than a mouthful. They were terrible. I was so disappointed. I called them and the lady said she would tell someone. No one called. No one did anything. $50 for absolute garbage donuts. Will not come here again!!

The lines are packed in the AM, but you can get served quickly. You can eat inside or outside. You choose your donuts at the front and check out at the front. These donuts are fluffy and not too sweet for me. There are so many options of the most traditional and popular flavors.

    I hated to give three stars because every time I have been here in the past I have experienced only…read moregood service. I was having a busy day today and needed to run errands for other people. One of the stops was Mary's donuts in Santee. I had originally asked if they had plain donuts and she said no with a rude tone. I kept my composure and said okay. I selected the glazed old fashioned to replace the plain donuts she said they did not have. This woman was an older woman behind the counter . Right after she told me that, a younger girl also was working there but she was on the sales floor, and I have no idea what she was doing but she said check in the back there and that she saw plain donuts. So, the woman goes to get the plain donuts and I also told her I needed the crumb donut holes. She said what loudly since she didn't hear me. But instead of loudly saying what why wouldn't you ask a customer can you please repeat what you said . Is that asking too much to have manners when dealing with customers? I don't think so. I was taught to have manners and I always hope if you go to a business to spend money the workers will be grateful and nice. Well, this was not the treatment received today. So,she puts the doughnuts in the bags, one bad for the regular plain ones and the other bag for the donut holes . I decide to have a few of the donut holes, but when I looked in my bag they were glazed donut holes and not the crumb that I had asked for two times while she said what to me instead of excuse me can you repeat it. I was so darn upset, I walked out! I will never be coming back to the Santee location again. This treatment was unacceptable! She is not representing Mary's donuts in a way the owner, Mary would be proud . In a competitive world of donuts, I can go anywhere but had chosen this place. I will go elsewhere next time.
