So happy to have found a Seven Seas Roasting location closer to North county! Just as great of quality and wonderful staff as their other locations. This location is right in the center of so much Solana Beach activity offering plenty to do and see around this cafe that makes it an even better stop. Really easy to order and although the line may look long, they are usually quite fast. Worth the wait too! I recently had their cherry bomb latte and my husband had their vanilla latte. His vanilla latte was top tier but I absolutely love the cherry bomb latte. Cherry and coffee go together much better than expected. Their butter croissant was heaven. Just the fluffiest layers and delicious! read more

Cute spot on Cedros in Solana Beach, with surprisingly easy street parking for a Saturday morning in June. This would have been an average San Diego coffee shop experience for me, except for the fact that I absolutely LOVED the cherry bomb! It's a cherry mocha and essentially a perfect drink for me. Back in 2019, Starbucks had a seasonal cherry mocha for Valentine's Day that I was obsessed with. Apparently I was the only one, because they haven't brought it back since. Cherry mochas are hard to come by, and I haven't really encountered another one. This one was delicious! The espresso was bold, the milk perfectly creamy, and the overall taste not too sweet (unlike Starbucks'). Wow!! I can already tell this will be a drink I daydream about. Unfortunately it was $7.50, which will prevent me from indulging very regularly. The rest of the menu is pricey too, with avocado toasts nearly reaching $20. (I may be a millennial, but I can certainly understand the negative stereotype when I see coffee shop prices like these.) Besides pricing, the other downside of this place is the limited seating. There were only 4 small outdoor tables, so unless you're with just one other person and you arrive before 10am, I'd suggest grabbing your coffee to go and taking a walk. My friend and I sat down, since there were open tables when we arrived. She enjoyed her iced honey cinnamon latte. If you love a cherry mocha or are looking for coffee in the design district, definitely come through! read more

This is one of those spots I keep coming back to every time I'm in the area--and for good reason. Seven Seas Roasting is consistently solid. The coffee is smooth, clean, and never misses, and what really keeps me stopping in is their coffee bean selection. I usually grab a bag to take home, and they always have a great variety to choose from. Bonus: when you buy a bag of beans, they hook you up with a free coffee--which is a nice touch and honestly keeps me coming back even more. They also have a really nice front patio with tables, perfect for sitting outside and enjoying your coffee. On top of that, they carry merch too--really cool hats, cups, shirts, and jackets that actually look good, not the typical throwaway stuff. It's not just a quick caffeine stop, it's a legit quality coffee shop with a dialed-in vibe and products that actually deliver. Service is always friendly, and everything runs smooth and easy. read more

I ordered the rosemary bagel with cream cheese and coconut bacon and an iced lavender honey latte, and both were amazing! I ended up going back the next day to get the coffee again. The service was great both times, and it's located on a cute street with lots of great stores. I definitely have this spot saved in my mind whenever I visit the area. read more

Iced Honey Lavender Latte now costs $7.50 ;( The barista did accommodate me when I asked for half sweet, and it was made very well. The drink itself is delicious, but not sure if I would come every week for this price (personally). Maybe just once in a while! The interior space got revamped so that the workers have more wiggle room, that was cool to see. I didn't see much else that changed though-- oh besides that and the prices. The week before, I ordered the $7.25 Iced Blood Orange Basil Latte (seasonal special). I was eager to try it because I do enjoy citrus notes with my coffee. But this one lacked the flavors I was hoping to taste. It was all too subtle for me. I wouldn't order it again, but it was nice to try. 4-5 stars! Overall, I've enjoyed my many visits to 7 Seas Roasting & been here through many changes. I do think the coffee drinks are pretty solid and would recommend checking out their seasonal specials when they have them. My top favorites would be: dark mocha raspberry, banana split latte, and the thin mint latte. If you ever see these on the menu, I highly recommend trying them! They have ample seating, outdoors only. The baristas are alll very kind too. It's a great place to spend your time at. read more

Rich, bold, and insanely good. This Seven Seas Roasting is located in the art district of Solana Beach, which is a prime location for enjoying the coast with shopping & good eats. I ordered the Honey Cinnamon Latte (espresso, fresh honey, and cinnamon). 10/10 as this is well balanced with quality espresso. There are a few tables w/ chairs directly outside but ample places to sit and walk to within this district. read more

I ordered ahead on their app which was really convenient. However, I was running late due to traffic coming from OC so I asked my sister to pick it up. She was also a bit late but when she got there, the staff was really nice and mindful. They wait to add ice and the cold foam just in case customers are running late, which I appreciated a lot because that was my main concern. I got the iced latte with peach cold foam and my sister got an iced lavender latte, both were VERY good and not artificial tasting at all! Overall great experience and yummy drinks read more

I was parked at the train station at Solana Beach and I wanted some local coffee on a Sunday. I saw one owned by veterans. I walked across the street and I kept seeing people grabbing coffee. I must have passed 4 places before seeing Seven Seas. They had a foldable sign outside, but I almost missed the place! I ordered an Iced Cinnamon Honey Latte and it came out quick. Delicious and absolutely tasty. read more

The cappuccino is absolutely delicious. Not acidic at all and very rich bodied. It comes out pretty quickly and it's a good sized portion--they fill it to the top. I also got a pastry (Danish) and parfait over here too. The pastry isn't too sweet and hits the spot. Very flaky and a bit messy but worth it. The parfait was a pleasant surprise. For such a small container, it had a good amount of granola. Great service. Quick. Overall, if you are looking to get a quick bit or coffee, this is it! read more

On the hunt for a really delicious mocha, we stopped into this cafe, where our dreams were fulfilled. Serves in the most beautiful ceramic mug, we enjoyed a rich, velvety, creamy, smooth decaf mocha with whole milk. The foam was perfect and the artwork was so appealing. I love a dark, rich chocolaty flavor and this mocha did not disappoint. Limited seating out front. Cute walk up counter. Friendly and motivated staff who seem happy with their jobs. In an area with a lot of cafes ships, this one is a keeper. read more

Reliably good coffee every visit. Location is fantastic. Parking is easy. Staff is always super friendly.

I stopped by Seven Seas when I was craving a good iced latte and I was so excited when I saw their menu. First off, they had a seasonal winter menu with a variety of different drinks that all sounded so good. They had one inspired by the Samoa girl scout cookie that I will definitely be back to try. I was immediately sold on the Cherry Bomb latte on their main menu though. I love a chocolate fruit combo, especially in a latte and this one did not disappoint. The cherry flavor was subtle but present and the mocha was not too sweet at all! It had a lot going on but the coffee flavor was still able to shine through, 10/10. Secondly the staff was very kind and made the drinks super fast. I only had to wait a couple minute for my drinks, but there was seating out front and it was a beautiful day so it felt like no time at all. I will absolutely be back. read more

Yummy coffee. This is located in a place where you can get coffee and walk around. Parking can be hard to find. So plan for that. The food was yummy and coffee options were good. Their was a flavor I saw online they didn't have anymore. But I went with my classic vanilla latte with oatmilk and it was just as good. I will come back another time so I can try the seasonal drinks. Staff were friendly and helpful. Their wasn't seating inside, but a few tables and chairs outside. Its in a location that is best for outside coffee anyways. read more

This place was great. I had the triple coconut latte and I loved it! I'm always trying to find a latte that brings me back to Hawaii and this one delivered. Will be back! read more

Found my latte to be lackluster, watery, and not for me. I'd say I would try it again but I honestly dont see the point. I had high hopes and they were dashed :0( They were not busy, I don't see a reason they would have been off so I have to imagine this is a normally made latte here read more

We came here on a Saturday morning and found street parking right in front. This cute coffee shop has limited outdoor seating and also serves breakfast and ice cream. I ordered the Truffle Goat Avocado Toast and really enjoyed it--the thick bread and pickled onions were delicious. Service was good, and I'd love to come back to try another avocado toast and some ice cream next time. read more

To address the entitled review that gave Seven Seas a 2 Star, I find it super difficult to give this place anything but 5 Stars. The people behind the counter we eloquent and efficient along with being kind and patient. My wife was pretty indecisive and they worked with us till she finally knew what she wanted. The food was delicious, we got the Lox Bagel and the Dirty Avocado toast. I'll admit it's very difficult to mess those two meals up, they elevated both of them. The whole reason we went though was for coffee and we were FAR from disappointed. We got the Blood Orange Basil Latte and the Blackberry Vanilla Latte and both tasted perfect, each sip of the Blood Orange Basil had a nice scent of basil with the leaf in there. You really can't go wrong here, the tables outside gave you a nice area to sit relax and enjoy the ocean breeze. A+ 10/10 no notes, excepts for the positive ones above. Not saying anyone's review is wrong but the 2 Star review definitely was incorrect read more

Great lattes, very "petite" coffee shop with just a few seats outside. There are a few food items to go in the fridge like chia pudding and overnight oats, otherwise they offer bagels and croissants. The shop also sells ice cream. Unlike other coffee shops on Cedros, there's usually no line here, so you can get your drink quickly read more

Such a cute little spot in the area! There are plenty of tables both indoors and outdoors, making it a great place to work or study. The line to order was really long, but I was still able to grab a table since most people were ordering to-go. It would be nice if they had separate lines for dine-in and takeout. I got a latte and a bagel--both were good. Definitely a place I'd recommend! read more

Cute little place I found! They don't have a parking lot so it's street parking or you can park at the target parking and walk across. They have plenty of tables and chairs and even a nice bar open window seats. I ordered a regular hot latte with whole milk and my boyfriend ordered their winter seasonal drink hot toasted marshmallow with oat milk. We didn't wait long for our drinks. It came pretty fast. We were there on a Friday afternoon and there was a decent line. My drink was really good creamy and still has the taste of dark coffee. A lot of coffee shops has it either too water down or too milky. I prefer my latte with a strong coffee taste. My boyfriend really enjoyed his drink as well and the presentation of the coffee was cute. Definitely coming back to try their latte iced. read more

I wanted to like this place, I have come a few times in the last couple of months and I every time it seems to get worse. The customer service for one is terrible when you walk in no one acknowledges you or even looks up at you, to the point you almost feel like your an inconvenience no one smiles or is pleasant it's really off putting. The coffee itself is average on the 4 occasions I have been two times the coffee was super bitter and the other two times I got super expensive Macha and was barely warm at best. I love to support small local places but they make it so hard for o support them when they leave with a less than welcome experience. When your paying $7-8 for a coffee welcoming hello should not be to much to expect. read more

Great lattes, friendly staff, protein chia pudding & BAGELS! Yum! We will definitely be back to try the ice cream when the weather warms up.

Seven Seas Roasting has a chic coffee shop vibe in downtown Solana Beach. They serve coffee, pastries, toasts and ice cream. The coffee was smooth and tasted high quality. The pastries offered gluten free options as well. Definitely enjoyed our experience and will have to go back to try the unique ice cream flavors! read more

It's always a good thing when you can swoop off the Hwy 5 for a serious cup of coffee. Seven Seas is one of those spots. I got a hot Cherry Bomb and a cold Coconut Latte. Both were good.

Best coffee shop in Solana Beach. I've been going there almost daily for 2 years, and the place keeps earning it. Big credit to Amber, Andrew, and Maria. Small coffee shop with great coffee and real personality, basically what I'm looking for in a coffee shop. The whole team makes it feel super welcoming without performing. Food is also great, I just had an avocado toast earlier today and it was delicious. Regulars are the other thing. You end up making friends over coffee, and that's not something you can manufacture. My dog Cacao has basically appointed himself mascot. Most mornings he's sprawled in the middle of the floor seeking the sun. Come get some great coffee and get some love and attention from him. read more

We ordered 4 drinks here and only two were correct. But that wasn't the worst part. The cold brew coffee didn't taste like coffee at all. Wasn't sure if she mixed up the drinks but it was awful, I couldn't drink it. Then she didn't put the correct creamer in the other drink. This can be dangerous if you have food allergies. Not sure if the employees were new but I don't think I'd be returning read more

Seven seas roasting is probably my favorite shop, I get to meet friends down in Cedro and then walk with a fabulous Lotte... Very unique everyone of which I have enjoyed. I love the natural flavors, including lavenders herbs, and all quite unique. I have never met a barista. I didn't like or who didn't give some good recommendations. Sometimes we just sit out in the front for a few minutes just to enjoy the coffee and then start walking... It's in a great location and they are a great coffee shop. read more

Very fun little spot in Solana Beach. Kid friendly and great food. The burritos were great too!!

Traveled from the East Coast to West Coast to find and indulge in yummy unique flavorful coffee drinks. This was our first stop and it did NOT disappoint. This little shop was hopping with customers. They offer cozy seating outside for you to simply sit and sip your drinks while catching up with friends or family, to people watch, to meet new people (yes, we chatted with fellow coffee lovers) or to sit silently on your electronic device. The baristas were super helpful and friendly. They genuinely expressed interest in our inquiries about the area (since we were not locals) and happily answered our questions about the different drinks. There are a variety of different coffee offerings with limited matcha & chai options. If in the area again, I'd definitely go back. Our drinks were so deliciously cool and refreshing. read more
