    Holiday Cocoa Flight
    Angie P.

    What an awesome spot! My bestie and I had a great time meeting for coffee and lunch here last week. The entire coffee shop is decorated for the holidays and had a fun, festive atmosphere. The food was delicious, I went with my third choice meal due to them being out of a lot of things which was a bummer but the food was good regardless. Additionally, they offer christmas cocoa and espresso flights which were super yummy and a fun way to get into the holiday spirit! Parking is kind of a nightmare at this location but if you can snag a spot, definitely stop by and cross this holiday must see off your list!

    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.

    Had to share! Buy a bag of their amazing coffee and get a free coffee with the purchase. Nice little give back!

    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.

    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.

    Breakfast burritos are just delicious and the blueberry scones are perfect. Blueberry muffins are excellent and then the actual coffee is amazing. Friendly service and clean eclectic decor makes for a welcoming and cozy experience. A definite must

    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 place.... it is very popular among locals and it is very rustic. Conveniently located in the heart of Barrio Logan, if you want a strong and good coffee, this is your spot. They also have other breakfast options that are available and appear to be made to order. I got a frapuccino and a chocolate croissant. It was mid-tier. A bit on the pricy side but I'd definitely try other options and see how this place lives up to the hype.

    Iced vanilla latte

    Love the ambiance but the iced lattes were terrible. My bf got an iced vanilla latte and I got the iced Irish cream latte- both tasted basically like milk, mine was overwhelmingly sweet. I specifically asked for mine to be made with less milk because I like the coffee flavor, and this was the opposite. We didn't finish them and are on way to a new shop right now.

    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).

    Iced Mexican Mocha

    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.

    Anybody have recommendations on parking? I only saw the fifteen minute spots outside and watched a guy walk out getting a ticket.

Service was friendly and they brought the food out to our table and helped us clean up. I got the Firebird, it was a little spicy but not overwhelming. Good flavor and the chicken was super crispy yet still juicy and tender. The fried onions were a lot though, and I would've preferred some coleslaw or veggies since pickles aren't my thing. A bit pricey but the sandwich was huge, I didn't even finish it! I took a bite of my sister's Coop deville, it could've used some more flavor but was okay with some ranch. I liked how crispy the fries were, but they were pretty salty and slightly spicy.

My friends and I were just looking to get a coffee in Little Italy, but when we walked in and saw all the delicious treats we had to try something else as well. I ordered a latte and neglected to tell them it was for here so I was given a paper cup, but they give real cups if you ask. The latte was good, and my friend bought a kitchen sink type cookie with chocolate, coconut, and macadamia nuts. It was warm and gooey good! Another friend tried the gelato and said it was very good. There are a few tables inside and tables out in front outside. We sat outside and enjoyed the beautiful San Diego weather. The decor and tables definitely gives you an old school Italian neighborhood vibe with Italian markets right next door. If I am in the neighborhood again, I would definitely come back here to try the gelato and/or a piece of an excellent looking lemon pie bar I spotted.

The menu was a bit confusing, but I know that I like grilled veggies and Greek salad and then Ike was able to pick my protein that I wanted so that seemed easy enough. The base price with falafel or chicken Shawarma was Close to $16 but since I chose the meat, they added two dollars to my total. It took about 10 minutes for them to assemble my meal, but my veggies were cooked fresh on the stove, which was really nice. They tasted very freshly cooked just as they would as if I had cooked them myself at home. I was there about 1245 on a Monday and there were a few people there and they had some takeout orders so my order took about 10 minutes before I could walk out the door with it. They had a nice condiment bar where you could pick out some yogurt with dill sauce and then they're famous garlic yogurt sauce, as well as a jalapeño sauce And another spicy hot one that I would never try. When I got back to the jury room to eat my meal, I saw that there was a nice quantity of the fresh salad and the grilled vegetables but the meat was piled high! The employees were working efficiently and the place was spotless and orderly.
