Walked into Maple Tree Coffee and immediately thought, "Ah yes, this is where I'm meant to be... if academia ghosts me." It's one of those magical cafes where everyone knows each other, like a sitcom set but with better lighting and more oat milk. I half expected someone to say, "The usual?" and honestly, I wouldn't have questioned it. There are outlets outside (????), which is basically sorcery, and the outdoor bar setup? Feeding my delusions--I mean dreams--of opening a semi-outdoor izakaya once the PhD job market eats me alive. It's giving Plan B but make it aesthetically pleasing (and immaculate vibes). Also, dog-friendly to the MAX. They offered my pup whipped cream without me asking!! So, I stand my case: vibes = immaculate. I soaked in the sun, the sound of people spending a great morning together, and the subtle feeling that I could, in fact, become a regular here and find inner peace. Would I uproot my life just to befriend the staff and commit to a neighborhood table? Maybe. When my Phd job search falls through. read more

This is a very laid-back inviting coffee shop. It's a little kiosk on a patio with plenty of shaded seating. They offer a variety of espresso based beverages, smoothies, teas, pastries, and locally made breakfast burritos. I had a cortado with 2% milk for $4. It was well made. It was a little strong up front, but it settled after a bit to a smooth and rich flavor. I enjoyed it very much. I also enjoyed the friendly conversation offered by the gent running the kiosk and some of the locals that visited. Cool spot to meet up with friends, enjoy a beverage, and have some conversation. read more

Maple Tree Coffee!!!! If I could give more than 5 stars i would, we went on a Saturday morning right before 11am, and got a warm vanilla late and a cappuccino both had amazing flavor and had the perfect balance of coffee and sweetness. Service was great, barista made great conversation and made us feel welcomed ! Atmosphere was just as amazing and welcoming with plenty of seating, some in the shade some in the sun for whatever you prefer ! the time we went wasn't crowded at all, so plenty of options to sit. This spot is PERFECT for someone who is looking for a quiet spot to get some work done or finish up their favorite book!! I'd recommend this spot to anyone & definitely will be back to try more menu items and flavors !!! read more

Would come again! Ordered a hot Macadamia Nut almond milk latte + add shot & the duegler (probably spelled it wrong) w/oat milk and 4shots iced. Easy to find once I used maps. Little sign outside the enclosed patio so that helped. Inside is simple but welcoming. Seats are very comfortable. Owner friendly and patient with our order. read more

My wife had discovered Maple Tree Coffee on Yelp, and we checked it out recently. Met Abraham, who recommended a drink called the Duegster, which was really good. Abraham's a passionate barista, and we can tell he's definitely into the quality and craft of coffee making. We plan to visit again and try more of the menu. If you've got time, want something different from Starbucks, check out Maple Tree Coffee and help support a cool indie coffee spot. read more

Maple Tree Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Chula Vista, California

I've been wanting to visit Maple Tree Coffee (MTC) since it's attached to the Call Of Zion (COZ) Church located on the west side of Chula Vista. My normal coffee meet time is at 7:30am when a close buddy of mine meet up maybe 3-6 times a month after he drops his wife off at work. Unfortunately, MTC opens at 8:30am, a whole hour after I like to get my morning Java. This morning was my lucky day as I wrapped up my dog walk a little later than usual, and decided to visit MTC. We were greeted by Priscilla, whom my buddy knows well as his family attends COZ regularly. It was a little warm, so Priscilla made me an iced coffee, while my buddy ordered a special coffee which had too many ingredients to recall. He also ordered an iced vanilla matcha green tea with almond milk to-go. Our morning meetup was cut shorter than usual, as he had to run to tend to family matters. PROS: I loved the covered outdoor patio of theirs, it's sectioned off from the sidewalk by a 6 foot fence and feels pretty quaint and peaceful. It's perfect to meet friends, study at one of their padded chair & tables placed amongst the patio area, or just relax and meditate, pray, or enjoy their delicious coffee drinks. CONS: None really, but I had visited on Wednesday, which those who live around this part of Chula Vista is trash/recyclables/yard waste day. Street parking is already at a premium in this area due to the residences, businesses, the Chula Vista Norman Park Senior Center, and three churches in within blocks surrounding the coffee shop. On to why I will want to return back sooner than later... The customer service is second to none, Priscilla was amazing!!! I wondered if they had a decaf iced coffee, they did not, BUT, Priscilla suggested a 1-shot iced Americano (normally 2-shots) which turned out even better than my originally desired decaf iced coffee. I don't know what coffee beans MTC uses but it was definitely flavorful, had enough intensity, while not having as much caffeine since it was a weakened 1-shot of espresso. It was a beautiful sunny Chula Vista morning and the temperature was just right to enjoy a delicious iced Americano in their patio. I have two other favorite coffee shops within a mile of MTC... This spot will be added to the rotation starting today! Coffee, service, atmosphere, and ambiance were all deserving of a 5-star review! I can't wait to return! read more

Great Coffee and very casual atmosphere. Several tables to sit and enjoy conversation. The servers, the patrons and the people here for bible study are always genuinely friendly. This place has a "Serve the community" atmosphere. Which is not surprising as it is in the courtyard of the Church Of Zion. Its across from the Norman center and a great spot to hang out after pickleball. The smoothies are refreshing and the they have many iced options. read more

The best service and coffee in SD! I'm really picky when it comes to coffee and usually prefer my own homemade coffee but Maple Tree really exceeded my expectations. You can definitely taste all the love made in each cup served with amazing service. So yes, I would most definitely recommend.....you will not be disappointed!
