    Ryan bros does breakfast and lunch sandwiches now! Pastries are always available too. The baristas are friendly and helpful. This location in Barrio Logan is one of the first on site roasters downtown area. Since 2003 they have been serving up the finest espresso drinks to a loyal following. Their brick building is historic and very accommodating to laptop workers. Plenty of free street parking too.

    Ryan Bros Coffee - Great Vibes & Delicious Drinks! Ordered the Cold Brew Flight with cold foam -- such an awesome idea to sample different flavors! The Mexican Mocha, Dirty Chai, Trifecta, and Black Mango Tea were all unique and fun to taste. Love the cute aesthetic and presentation. We also tried the Avocado Toast, Main Street Special Burrito, and a Matcha Latte -- everything was fresh and super tasty. The coffee shop itself is huge with plenty of seating and a welcoming vibe. Staff was friendly and helpful, making the experience even better. Definitely a great spot to relax, catch up with friends, or get some work done.

    This is my first visit. I really liked the ambiance. It's spacious and great for group gatherings or if you just want a place to enjoy a cup of coffee. The staff were friendly. I got a latte with Irish Cream. It was too sweet for my taste though. The açaí bowl had too much granola and not enough açaí for my taste. Overall, it's a good place to hang out but it would not my first choice for coffee. It's a 3.5 star place for me.

    The coffee here is delicious! Very open space with limited inside seating but I was able to enjoy coffee and some pastries with my dad and it was a great time.

    I actually visited this spot as a business-school field trip and was able to meet the owner and check out their coffee operations, but I also purchased a vanilla latte! This coffee shop is located at a nice corner off Main Street. Lots of free parking around. It's a pretty big space with lots of seating. The employees are nice, and I was able to learn about their coffee philosophy from the time I spent learning. My vanilla latte was delicious, perfectly sweet and strong. They offer dairy alternatives. I was able to try a sample of their green coffee which was unique, a bit minty and refreshing. My friends got their food and said it was good but I wasn't able to try it. You can tell they're really passionate about what they do here! I recommend it.

    Fun festive holiday espresso flight. What a wonderful way to start the day. Super cute inside. This place is absolutely worth a stop

    My daughter and I decided to meet up here this morning and I'm so glad we did! It's absolutely adorable on the inside. Their coffee is incredible for both those hardcore coffee lovers and those who want something that doesn't taste like coffee. Highly recommend you stop in for breakfast

    This has been on my coffee to do list for quite awhile as I was particularly interested in their flights. What I didn't realize was the terrible neighborhood this is in, which have their fault, but note to the wise, especially women, do not park and walk here alone. I felt I was putting my life at risk parking 3 blocks away at noon. It was pretty scary I ordered the flight but was not asked nor told that they would all be iced. I do not drink nor like iced coffee so had I known I probably would've ordered something else, especially for $20. The flight was beautifully displayed and as good as iced can be (which for me is not great) but I the glasses were so tiny (and half of it ice), I'm pretty sure all of them put together would barely make one regular drink, again for $20? I think you're better off just ordering one regular sized drink for $6. And remember to come with a burly friend for security

    I saw on IG that this coffee shop had cute delicious festive cold brew flights! I had to make my way to one of their locations as the holidays were nearing end. The location my boyfriend and I went to is the one located in the corner of Main St and Cesar E. Chavez Pkwy where the Barrio Logan Gateway sign is. There's ample free street parking around the area. I was super excited for their festival cold brew flights but the day my boyfriend and I went, they ran out of ingredients to make them! Sad! But regardless, they still had a cold brew flight of flavors to choose from. My boyfriend and I got their Trifecta, Mexican Mocha, French Vanilla Caramel combo, and Candy Cane (yay for the latter!). The barista had cold foam on top of each drink (peep at pic), and omg. Every one of were delicious! The cold foam definitely enhanced the drink and surprisingly wasn't very sweet. Our top favorites were the trifecta and Mexican mocha. I was actually debating on getting a full size trifecta for the road LOL but definitely a spot to revisit in the future in my opinion. My boyfriend also go their Chocolate Scone which looked kind of dry from first impression but surprisingly and thankfully, was not! Heating it up definitely helped. Overall, even though I didn't get my festive cold brew flight, the regular flight we chose with the cold foam were delicious! We will be back next year to try get their festive flights (and for more of their trifecta cold brew).

    The Mexican mocha and chorizo burrito here are the best. Every time we have an overnight stay downtown we stop by here for breakfast/hangover cure the next day. The burritos are big enough to share and the drinks are always made perfectly.

    I tried their Funky Monkey. I was craving a smoothie, it was very good, I'd recommend it if you're craving a ok mething sweet. One of my favorite lattes is the Bon Fire latte; although I recommend ordering it without the cayenne pepper because it is spicy. If you haven't done so I also recommend ordering a flight. Staff is friendly and the service is great. I love the vibes and decor at the this shop.

    Stopped in during the Chicano Park Day celebration. The interior of the shop was cute, lots of natural light, with the typical coffee shop industrial feel. Unfortunately they were out of the Horchata coffee, so I ordered a Mexican mocha instead. I also ordered a TAB sandwich as well. The coffee was ok. It just tasted like chocolate milk , nothing special. The sandwich was a bit of a let-down. It was turkey lunch meat, some bacon, and mayo pressed like a panini. For the cost, it was not worth it at all. I probably won't be returning. I spent over $20 for a small chocolate milk that was supposed to be a coffee and a mediocre sandwich.

    Just got off on a break. Ordered a burrito bowl (Main Street special) to go. Waited for an about 12 minutes til my order arrived. Service was prompt. Ambiance seemed lively enough. Not too much people but just the perfect amount. Great Burrito.

There was a transition of servers (not sure if he left for the day or went on lunch) and the new server would check on everyone at the bar except us. My water remained empty for most of the meal. The bartenders in front of us were clearly having a conversation and I didn't want to interrupt. My friend claimed her Irish coffee was sour? And didn't realize cheese came on a side of eggs (she should've checked when she ordered but the server never clarified either). We weren't checked on during the meal until the bill came and by then we just wanted to leave. I ordered the fluffy pancakes and found an egg shell inside. The cracking of eggshells in my mouth made me loose my appetite. We paid (still tipped of course) and left. It was great the first time and mediocre the second time. I prefer consistently in service, especially if I'm waiting an hour to be seated.

We had spent most of the day around Bankers Hill and decided to grab an early dinner at Books & Records. Getting reservations was easy, but from the moment we walked in, the ambiance alone already had us sold. The place was still pretty quiet when we arrived, and to our surprise it was happy hour, so naturally we ordered a bunch of items off the menu along with drinks. Everything was ridiculously good. Not one miss. What really stood out though was the attention to detail. The host brought us a complimentary glass of champagne after hearing we were celebrating our anniversary. Small gesture, big impact. Stuff like that matters. As the night went on, the restaurant filled up, live music started playing, and the whole atmosphere just came alive. Our waiter never rushed us once, which made the experience feel even more intentional and relaxed. We were able to actually enjoy the moment instead of feeling pushed through dinner service. Good food is one thing. Great hospitality is another. This place gave us both. Next time we're in San Diego, we're absolutely making it a point to come back. Lovely spot. Lovely experience.

It's got the decor, chairs, and art to match. Jessica was our server and she was amazing! She gave us lots of suggestions on what to try and what is on the menu since it was my first time here. She recommended the bloody Mary flight so did grab that to try! We also ordered the biscuits and gravy to share and orange juice. The portions are so large! So I am glad we decided to share the biscuits and gravy but let me run down each thing. Bloody Mary Flight: Honestly every single one was amazing. My favorite was definitely the pickle Mary! Everything tasted so delicious and was garnished beautifully. Well worth the 22 dollars. Biscuits and Gravy: Absolute perfection of comfort food. The biscuits were so fluffy and well seasoned. The gravy was also soooo good, just like my mom makes. The sausage in it was also cooked so well and juicy. I've never tried mashed potatoes with the biscuits and gravy but it worked very well! Orange Juice: Not a fan really, not pulpy enough and I wasn't a fan of the flavor. Overall this is definitely a must visit! I will definitely be back.

"Over medium" eggs came barely cooked, still had clear egg gel floating around. The table next to us had the same issue. The fried chicken, which is beautiful looking, was strangely flavorless. Another table was also talking about this issue. Bacon was way overcooked as well. I also really dislike when food timing for a table is way off. I rather it stay in the kitchen under a heat lamp and come together rather that spend 5 minutes staring at my food being polite. So, for a fun "wow that's a ton of food" experience this is it. But I much prefer quality ingredients and attention to detail and flavor over unfinishable portions at a premium price point ($100 after tip for 2 ppl).
