This is a really great spot for co-working or just generally hanging out. They have an entire calendar of events including DJ nights and pop-ups and they never sell tickets to any of it. Always open to the community. And always people co-working from here so it's a great place to meet neighbors. I also highly recommend you check out their food as it's sourced from local partners. Anddddd pro tip! They have soju, wine, and beer for those that partake. read more

Mixed Grounds Coffee offers patrons a unique coffee experience with a calendar full of live music and events. My latte was great and workers seemed friendly. They didn't really have any vegan options for me to eat, but my friend enjoyed her food. While this spot is spacious and offers a variety of seating options, I personally found the music too loud for me to co-work. My friend and I could barely hear each other and my ears began hurting. The DJ was very good, which also made it difficult for me to truly stay focused. That being said, unless you are doing some sort of creative work, this place provides more of a vibe to chill. read more

I was going to order an oolong tea with no ice from here, but the cashier said they couldn't do that. I ended up just getting a hot oolong tea to go. It was scalding hot, so it took me some time to finally be able to drink it without burning myself. The lid of the cup seemed to fit a little off as well because the tea seeped down the side and wet the cup sleeve. The cup sleeve ended up falling off in clumps of cardboard, which made it hard to even hold the cup up since it was so hot. The flavor of the tea was....unexpected. It tasted nothing like any oolong tea I've ever tasted. I'm actually slightly convinced that it wasn't oolong tea at all since the flavor was so different. It wasn't exactly bad. It was a very floral flavor that I would have to describe as being more like a hybrid between lavender and earl grey tea. I enjoy all these teas, so it's fine really. It was just unexpected. Aesthetically speaking, the inside of the shop was really nice and cozy. If I lived in the area, then I would probably come back to hang out and try other drinks. I also noticed they were selling some interesting merch by the register. read more

Mixed Grounds is the kind of café that feels intentionally built for community. It's street parking, so you might need to drive around a couple times when it gets busy. But the space itself is huge, with both indoor and outdoor seating. It's a great spot to work/study in the morning. There's lots of room to spread out and settle in for a few hours. They also host live events and pop-ups. It definitely makes the space feel active and community-focused rather than just another coffee shop. Last time I went they had banh mi and Vietnamese flavor inspired cookies! Drink-wise, the buko pandan coffee was the standout. It's creamy with a nice coffee flavor and not overly sweet. The jelly at the bottom is such a fun touch and makes the last sip/bite extra enjoyable. Even my very picky dad liked it, which says a lot. I also tried the matchata (matcha + horchata). It wasn't anything mind-blowing, but you can definitely taste both flavors and the matcha quality seems solid. The chai, unfortunately, was pretty watered down. I wouldn't recommend it. Customer service was genuinely great though. Alexis helped me right away and made sure I was happy with my order, which I really appreciated. She made adjustments to the chai, and when that didn't work she had no problem replacing it with a different drink. Food-wise, the rosemary sea salt bagel was really solid. They also had other baked treats that looked great, but I didn't get to try them this time. Overall, Mixed Grounds is less about just grabbing coffee and more about the vibe. It's spacious, welcoming, and clearly designed as a place for people to gather, work, and hang out. Definitely a spot I'd come back to. read more

Mixed Grounds Coffee - Matchata & Buko Pandan Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Diego, California

Quite a cool and funky coffee shop with very interesting seating. Has a lot of space and is very spread out. Good place to post up if you're trying to work for a while on a laptop. They've got some unique drinks that you won't really see anywhere else, so I definitely give them props for standing out! I went with the Pandan latte which is one of my favorite flavors lately. The taste was pretty good, but it was very very sweet, and really lost the coffee taste. Would like to go back and try out a more neutral espresso drink and see how the flavor of the espresso itself is. Also got a cardamom bun which has been one of my favorite Scandinavian treats. But honestly, it really didn't taste much of cardamom at all, and it has a maple glaze on top which really drowns out any other flavor. It's a bit on the dry side too. It's kinda like an ikea cinnamon roll, nothing too exciting. I think the atmosphere + cool selection of drinks definitely makes up for it though, enough for me to definitely be interested in coming back! read more

The hype about this spot had me curious -- drinks, live music, dance classes... I dig it. Here was my experience. AMBIANCE Parking: Street parking. It can get busy, so come early and give yourself time to find a spot. Seating: Indoor seating plus some outdoor patio space. Pretty spacious overall -- probably room for around 50 people. Vibes: Feels like the warm-up to North Park -- a mix of bars and eateries nearby. The café itself shares space within the apartment complex, which makes it feel dynamic and alive. There are often events happening: live DJs, open mic nights, dance classes -- you name it. The aesthetics are eclectic: sofas, lounge chairs, photos of iconic musicians, and even glimpses of office or gym space nearby. It's an interesting blend, but it works. Great place to socialize, chill, or get some work done while still feeling part of something. FOOD / DRINKS Guava Matcha Latte (Modified) - Recommend Usually this drink is coffee-based, but I was happy they offered a matcha variation. Visually, the layered green and pink tones were pleasing. Flavor-wise, the guava softened the earthy matcha and added a subtle sweetness that made it more approachable without overpowering it. Smooth, balanced, and fun. SERVICE I believe her name was Mel -- friendly, helpful, and welcoming. Great energy. TL;DR OVERALL 5 Stars. Wonderful spot. Good flavors, reasonable prices, and consistently great vibes. I appreciate that there's always something happening here. If you're someone who likes to be productive but still enjoy an active, creative environment, this place hits. Wishing Kwa and the Mixed Grounds team continued success. TIPS: * Check their IG for upcoming events. read more

Mixed Grounds Coffee - Woooo! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Diego, California

I love many things about this coffee shop. The musical theme sits well with me. They have art displayed of well known musicians, instruments on the walls and they have a monthly calendar of live music from DJ's to concerts. A DJ played cool tunes while visiting. The seating options are diverse and plentiful with patio seating, high chairs along a counter with indoor/outdoor space and lounge type seating inside. The spaces are also dog friendly, which is an added bonus. The staff is friendly and go out of their way to make you feel welcome. We had a tasting of a specialty beverage "Ca Phe Muoi" from their menu, along with some assorted creams puffs from a the local Korean Bakery Mon Chourie...I am in love with both! They also have vendors who have additional food offerings on the patio, this day it happened to be tacos and nachos. There was a large group scrapbooking, so they do support community activities. The parking can be difficult on busy days so plan ahead. Enjoy! #MixedGrounds #UniversityHeights #CaPheMuoi #LiveMusic read more

I tried the seasonal guava latte and was so excited for it but the guava syrup tasted like cinnamon and not like the fruit at all. I also am not a fan of warm spices so that was disappointing. My friend tried the cold brew tonic and also didn't like that it was more ok the bitter side and you couldn't really taste the cherry flavor. The inside of the place was huge and had tons of seating with a dj playing live music. It was a great event and a fun vibe I would go back to try the Vietnamese coffee. read more

Went to Mixed Grounds Coffee today and honestly loved it. I got the horchata latte and my boyfriend ordered the Ca Phe Muoi. My horchata latte was a little sweet, but not nearly as sweet as his. I'm not usually into super sweet coffee drinks, but mine was still really delicious. He absolutely loved his and would 100% order it again. A fun bonus is that dogs are allowed inside which isn't normally the case. We split the bacon and egg empanada and it was fantastic. Super flavorful and perfectly cooked. The people working there were incredibly friendly and kind, which always makes the experience better. The space itself is even cooler in person. It feels like a spot you actually want to hang out in, not just grab coffee and leave. They're open until 10pm most nights, and Friday through Sunday they have live music. They also serve beer and wine and host food pop ups, which is such a fun bonus. We'll definitely be back, especially for a music night. read more

Went to visit the place with the girls. The place looks so hip, trendy, as well as relaxing. Very spacious but inviting. We went on a Saturday. There was a taco vendor setting just right before the entrance for the cafe. Staff were very nice, greeted us with a warm smile. Shout out to Kwa, owner, funny and friendly. Got the blueberry lime muffin brought home was a hit. Got a cup of Americano. It was smooth, balanced, and mellow. Street parking read more

Mixed Grounds Coffee is such a great spot to go to if you're looking for fun vibes and reasonable priced coffee! I came on a Saturday which was very fun because they had a live dj set that added to the ambiance. The interior is also very cozy with ample seating areas and lots of games the patrons can use. Ordering here was super fast and easy and the staff is all so nice. I ordered the Ca Phe Muoi and I loved it so much. The quality espresso pairs well with the cream and sea salt. Everything was perfectly balanced and delicious! I also tried the Buko Pandan special, and that was also very tasty! The buko and pandan flavors were very balanced and complimented each other well. Reminds me of an elevated halo halo, in regards to the flavor profiles! I would recommend coming here if you're in town! read more

Walked by this area on a Sunday and had to check it out! The place is super spacious with tall ceilings and has plenty of comfy seating for work or to hang out. We had no problem finding space to sit on Sunday morning. There's also a chess set in the corner! They have live music on the weekends and a little stage area set up for a band. Service was friendly and helpful. In terms of drinks, I got: Chai latte - syrup is made in-house and not too sweet. The spices are super flavorful and a unique mix (not your standard chai, and the unique balance of spices is really tasty!) They have whole milk, almond, and oat milk as options for the drink. Chaggaccino - a great immune boosting drink and tastes just like a mocha! They have several unique menu items as well that I'm looking forward to try next time! read more

Love it! Came here around 9am and got myself their iced buko pandan special and their bacon/egg/cheese empanada. Right when I walked in, I was immediately greeted and acknowledged, which I did appreciate (the lil things haha). They also made sure to check-in with me for any adjustments needed after I got my drink. As for the items I ordered, I enjoyed everything about their iced buko pandan drink--it had the perfect amount of sweetness to it--and their empanada! Empanada had the perfect amount of flavor and crunch, I'm definitely going to go back another time to try their chorizo (or soyrizo?) option. I was at Mixed Grounds for about an hour and I did notice that the space does get busy quick after 9:30am. It eventually got somewhat loud inside with the music playing, but I didn't mind cause I had my AirPods in and I wasn't able to hear much unless if I took it out. Overall, a solid place to relax, meet up with a friend (also very dog-friendly), and unwind in North Park. The only thing that will require some more patience is the parking situation (since it's obviously in the busier side of town), but I had no issues parking a block away. I'll for sure be back! read more

What a fun gem to stumble upon! I was walking around the neighborhood to pass time before my haircut and popped into Mixed Grounds for a cuppa. This space is GORGEOUS! The seating area is spacious, the natural daylight is chef's kiss, the aesthetic is sleek, modern, and warm, and I really appreciated the openness comfort of the space. The menu is extensive and features quite a few specialty options. After taking a few moments to decide, I opted for the pandan latte, which happens to be the most popular drink ordered here. I could see and taste why! Visually, the drink is beautifully composed with a layer of pandan syrup, coconut cream, milk and coffee, and a garnish of pandan jelly. And the flavor?! OUTSTANDING. I really enjoyed how this was a moderatly sweet and well-balanced drink. The alchemy of the flavors tasted poetic! I could tell by this one drink that everything is made with intention and with the customer's experience in mind. PHENOMENAL. I can't wait to come back and visit this spot again. Hopefully next time, I'll be able to catch some live music and performances and to try more menu options. Cheers and here's to delicious sips, fantastic bites, and community gathers for music that's live! read more

Such a cool space for a coffee shop that is actually shared with an apartment complex space. The coffee is good, but nothing special and they have live music on the weekends and the times I've gone, the music is enjoyable and in good taste. It can be a little loud for someone who prefers a quiet studying environment, but perhaps they don't have live music during the weekdays. There isn't much service when it comes to this place, they don't bring you the drinks or anything, you just order at the counter and they call your name to pick up. Restrooms are available with two single person stalls and are always clean whenever I go. I recommend checking this place out! read more

Mixed Grounds Coffee - Seating area - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Diego, California

LEVELED UP THE COFFEE SHOP VIBES (5 Stars) - DRINKS, good - PRICE, average - SERVICE, ok - AMBIANce, loud and different This was a different take on a coffee shop that we all may be use to. Coffee shop mixed with new modern apartment complex lobby. Indoor and outdoor seats, opening to outside bar seats, leather lounge seats, and floor pillow seats - I guess there is a seat for every type of tooshie convenience. DJ spinning loud music in the corner - don't come here trying to come for an intimate conversation because most people are projecting their decibels for their conversation to be heard. So you have music going on, really loud conversations by alot of people, apartment residence foot traffic, and baristas calling out orders you can't hear and just hover near the coffee bar hoping your drink pulls up. They do have WiFi. But the username and password is on this tiny tap at the edge of the register A you won't know it's there unless an employee points it out. BUKU PANDAN SPECIAL ($6.75) - didn't expect to see Filipino influenced drinks but was very proud when I saw it. I immediately had to try this and it did not disappoint. It is on the sweeter side and I got my drink decaf. Couldn't taste the bean profile because of the flavors but the drink itself went down easy. Had a good 50/59 taste of coconut and pandan. RECOMMEND Will Rey to come back when it's quieter to enjoy coffee and be a cafe dweller. read more

My coworker told me about this place when I asked if she had any recommendations for a coffee shop near our office when I was visiting. She highly recommended this place so I had to check it out. First - I loved the inside/outside feel of the coffee shop. So much seating and very cool vibe. I had not eaten at all in the morning so was hungry. The people in the counter were so helpful and I even got to sample a new flavor they were working on! I ended up getting the Horchata Iced Latte and chicken empanada. I really liked the horchata iced latte. It actually had the horchata taste and was delicious. The chicken empanada was so flavorful. It looked more like a calzone but it was still so good and flaky. Honestly would so come back because the drinks and food were good, and I loved the vibes. The only downside is the parking but other than that, great coffee shop in SD Parking read more

Ah, I went here yesterday (Tuesday, July 1st) to show a friend the spot. I decided to get the $6.50, 16 oz, Ca Phe Muoi, it's salted coffee. The description says it's made with espresso shots so I thought that was a bit odd since it's "ca phe" so my initial thought was they were going to make Vietnamese drip. Anyways, the drink turned out pretty foamy, light colored, and milky-- I think I was mainly drinking condensed milk and cream. Which was a bummer because I am a lover of salted (they use sea salt) coffee! Worker was kind, but maybe needs to work on his drink making? It was just a miss on the drinks, but at least there was ice and that kept us cool. Next time I'll just go back to getting the pandan special. My mom and her friend ordered the $5, OG Lemonade, add lychee syrup. Because we saw they had Lychee Lemonade Matcha, but none of us like matcha so we basically asked for it to be removed. The guy accommodated-- but in the end the lychee flavor was really light. Having some lychee fruit inside the drink would also be delicious (just a thought). The drink itself was not too sweet, a bit tart, and refreshing. Interior is clean and lots of seating (indoor and outdoor). Will be back, to try something else off the menu. Also, don't read my review and think that the Ca Phe Muoi is bad-- my coffee friend recommended this drink, it just depends on who makes it! The menu is nice and diverse, come and try. What I might not enjoy, may turn out to be something that you really like. I've actually been here 3 other times (once to celebrate my bday!) and had amazing experiences! I thought I wrote reviews for them, but perhaps I only did it for Instagram. Those other times, I'd give Mixed Grounds Coffee-- 5 stars for sure. The space is really nice to connect with others, listen to new artists who perform live, etc. read more

I enjoyed a nice cortado and cheddar and chive scone from this Mix Grounds Location. Although the cortado was not serve in its proper gibralta, the cortado was very well made and delicious. The scone was quite good too. It tasted great and came with a good amount of cheddar in it. They warm it up for you, so it is nice and warm when you get it. They also offer various empanadas, muffins, bagels, and cookies. The staff members were friendly. They offer a very good amount of inside at outside seating. read more

Mixed Ground Coffee was among the latest to open in the area last month. I actually tried to visit but drove relentlessly around a few blocks and because I couldn't find parking, I just drive off. Last week, while in the area, I was able to take a parking spot right out front of the cafe and stopped in. The coffee shop occupies a small space of the ground level of a newly built apartment complex in North Park and parking is a major challenge. I had already previewed the menu and was ready to order. I stood at the counter for a longer than a reasonable expectation without being acknowledged by the two staffers...NOT GOOD. Nobody, especially a customer should be ignored. I had to shout out and say, 'Hey, can I order?!!' As usual, the female staffer acted catty and still continued her unprofessional behavior. The male staffer was literally across from me and finally takes my order. Annoyed, I hesitatingly ordered one of the signature drinks: BUKO Pandan special, an espresso drink with homemade Pandan syrup, which is Pandanus amaryllifolius, is a tropical plant with fragrant leaves commonly used in Southeast Asian cuisine for flavoring and aroma, often compared to vanilla. This drink was really good. Unfortunately, because of the unprofessional demeanor from the staffers, it diminished the enjoyment potential for me. And as it turns out, the owner of the shop just happen to be seated closeby for me to express my displeasure of the lack of acknowledgment, as lack of service. The owner: Kwa was apologetic but the damage was done, because the staffers are clueless of their subpar service or even common sense. Despite, how cool the place is or how good the coffee drink was, would I want to repeat a negative experience, NO! The employees/staff desperately need customer service training and possibly need to learn communication skills, as there's a language barrier issue... read more

I came here planning to get some work done, but the Wi-Fi made that impossible. When trying to access professional sites like LinkedIn, I received a "Your connection is not private" security warning (NET::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID). That's not just slow internet -- that's a certificate/security issue. It prevents you from safely logging into accounts or doing online work. For a café where many people bring laptops, this is a major drawback. If you're just stopping in for a drink, it may be fine. But if you need a secure and reliable connection for remote work, I wouldn't recommend relying on the Wi-Fi here. read more

I can't talk enough about the pandan latte it is rich in flavor and the beans they use for the coffee is delicious! I had never had the cinnamon roll before and I absolutely loved it!

Welcome to the neighborhood Mixed Grounds! I love checking out new coffee shops in the neighborhood and recently visited Mixed Grounds with some friends during their soft opening. I enjoyed my experience so much, I came back a few days later with my husband and neighbor. What's not to love? They make their own syrup in house, they source their own beans, the barista consistently delivers beautiful cups of lattes made with TLC, the space is large loungy and beautiful, dog friendly, and the owner Kwa is super personable. During my two visits I got the Buko Pandan Special and the Azteca Mocha. I enjoyed how unique each drink was, without being overly sweet. It can feel impossible to find space to sit in other local good coffee shops, so I am for sure adding Mixed Grounds to my rotation. read more

I found this spot during my morning walk. It's in one of the new builds in North Park. The vibe is super cute and fun inside! They host different events as well. They just had reggae Sunday yesterday, which I would have loved to see. They have an interesting menu with both food and drinks! I definitely recommend checking this spot out! I walked from my apartment, but there is limited street parking available as well. Food/drinks review: Matchata: (4/5) This is a matcha horchata drink. It was pretty good, but nothing special. The drink is also super small for the price you pay. Potato chorizo breakfast burrito: (5/5) They make burritos daily and they're available until they're sold out. Honestly, this was BOMB. The salsa they give you is also delicious. Only downside, super expensive for a pretty small burrito. read more

I've gone here about three times in the first two times I got the panda and latte. I loved it. I tried a different pan and syrup to other cafés and this one is probably my favorite so far.

Honestly blown away. Came for the pandan coffee drink, left with an additional matcha horchata drink, the chicken empanada, and the ham jalapeno empanada. All were delicious. The pandan coffee with coconut milk is so savory and creamy, perfect flavor and sweetness, I finished the whole drink in the car before I even got home. Agree with others that they're quite heavy on the ice with the cold drinks, knocking off 1 star for that. The matcha horchata was also delicious, with the perfect balance of zingy cinnamon and nutty matcha flavors. I really enjoyed the empanadas - the fillings were delicious and the crust had a flaky croissant-like texture which was an added bonus. For these 4 items the total was $25, California prices I guess. I'll definitely be back to enjoy the ambiance. Tall ceilings, gorgeous furniture and art, open floor plan, super chill vibes. Folks studying, working on their laptops peacefully. There's much more on the menu I'd like to try including their lychee matcha lemonade and some of their cocktails and mimosas. Very cool to hear they host open mic and DJ nights. Agree with others that parking can be an issue so you've got to time it right. I came around 11:30am on a Friday and snagged a 15 minute spot. I also saw that Mixed Grounds works directly with underserved producers in order to create a more sustainable business model, and coffee is roasted in small batches. Rock on! read more
