A white chocolate mocha
Alaysia B.

The drinks were amazing and the pastries look super delicious!!!!! Overall the people are very sweet. I got my drink very quickly and hot . It's family owned so nice vibe and feel to the cafe . It pretty quiet for the most part and i love that they have merch and instagram worthy decorations

Shoreside Bakery is a cute, yet sophisticated charming family-owned gem in downtown San Diego. They offer a fantastic selection of sourdough sandwiches, European pastries, and high-quality craft coffee. The atmosphere is incredibly friendly and relaxing, with great options to sit either inside or outdoors. It's the perfect spot whether you're a tourist exploring downtown or a local looking for a unique coffee drink and a chill city vibe. I highly recommend the Juice: A total must-try--so yummy and unique! The cafe mocha presentation is beautiful and truly inspiring. Jason was super welcoming and friendly. I highly recommend the turkey sandwich, and if you're into chocolate, they make an amazing thick chocolate filled cookie that's oh so delicious... among other yummy, unique European desserts. I was pleasantly surprised and so were my taste buds!!!

Food: 10/10 Service: 7/10 Ambiance: 8/10 Honey cake was one of the best cakes I've ever had, and the place had a super cute interior too. Would come back to try their toasts/sandwiches

THE BORSCHT
Igor M.

Oh my God, what and nice location!! Very very beautiful space very interesting menu very tasty Borsch and pastries. Guys you made an amazing job. I know this is your family business and I wish you good luck from all my heart. Definitely we need more such restaurants in our city . now this is my favorite spot in San Diego.

Matcha and latte

Great place for breakfast or lunch at Downtown San Diego. Yummy cakes and very nice atmosphere! Service was 10/10

Crepes with Nutella and raspberry honey cake
Maria I.

Amazing experience! I've been wanting to check this place out since they opened and happened to be near by today. Breakfast wrap was amazing, the cakes were fresh and not too sweet( which is a main criteria for me)... ahh and the coffee! Their coffee is just soooo good ! Everyone was super friendly and positive. I will be back!

Borscht, in-house made sourdough bread, meringue cake slice and latte

Food here is superb, every bite feels homemade, full of flavor, and made with real care. You can truly taste the quality. The ambiance has a cozy European charm: warm, inviting, and effortlessly genuine. The team greets you with a smile)) Yes, even at 6:30 am -- I checked!... lol You feel right at home from the moment you walk in. The coffee, pastries, sandwiches, and friendly service make it all come together.

Mango passion fruit cheesecake & an americano
Abigail L.

I have season tickets to the symphony in the afternoon and usually arrive downtown quite early. It's become my routine to stop in here and get an americano and a slice of something. The atmosphere is lovely and the service is always kind and prompt. I order to eat there and they give you the nicest mug and tableware I've had at a small cafe. I've tried the honey cake (fantastic!!) and most recently the mango cheesecake. The cheesecake itself was just fine but the fruit gel on top was texturally off to me and very bland. I was excepting a punch of flavor, it being named mango passion fruit and all. But it had almost no flavor aside from the coconut sprinkles. The coffee is always good! I think I missed the mark in ordering the cheesecake. I'll continue to go as it's just around the corner from the symphony hall and is actually open on Sunday afternoons unlike a lot of places downtown. I haven't tried their breads but they look phenomenal and they even sell sourdough starter! I've not eaten any of their savory foods but they also offer sandwiches and such if you're wanting lunch. Definitely worth stopping in if you're downtown.

Stopped by Shoreside Bakery and got the Napoleon cake - absolutely amazing. Perfect layers, fresh taste, and not overly sweet.

Stopped by Shoreside Bakery and got the Napoleon cake -- absolutely amazing. Perfect layers, fresh taste, and not overly sweet. You can tell it's made with care. Service was excellent too: friendly, welcoming, and professional. Definitely coming back for more.

Prosciutto and mozzarella toast with fig glaze (to go)
Danielle S.

Love this spot! They have a great little menu. It's gourmet fur sure. I haven't tried the gourmet tuna with caviar toast yet but that's next on my list. I was craving their prosciutto mozzarella toast with fig glaze again. So delicious! The freshly baked bread is to die for! For those who are gluten free, they have that too. There are lots of sweet treats - I've never even seen a Dubai cheesecake until today. I'm going to need to try that to! Can't wait to try everything on the menu. The people are great here - very friendly and make you feel really comfortable. The ambiance is beautiful - the music, the decor. It's just a perfect little spot.

I have been coming to Provecho for months now - It is well worth a visit. The staff and coffee are…read morealways on point, and the space is great to work out of. My favorite is their orange latte. However, they recently changed their cups, and I will say it's made the richness of the coffee disappear. I think there is to much milk now. I liked it better before :(. I hope they get smaller cups again, or minimize the amount of milk they use. Still work visiitng. Maybe ask for less milk?

It's tucked into a cute neighborhood near Logan Heights. We came around 9 a.m., and street parking was easy to find. There was already a line when we arrived, but it moved pretty quickly. The baristas were friendly and welcoming, and I thought the prices were really reasonable for San Diego. I ordered the black sesame matcha, and my husband got the Piloncillo. The matcha was creamy, rich, and not overly sweet, which I really appreciated. One thing to know if you're ordering matcha or a latte--they only offer oat milk, not almond milk. My husband loved his coffee and said the espresso was smooth, flavorful, and let the coffee shine without being overcomplicated. The shop itself is really cool too. There's an art installation inside, an outdoor patio with additional seating, and I noticed quite a few people picking up bags of espresso beans while we were there. Overall, we really enjoyed our visit and would definitely come back.

Milo and Caro are the owners and I love to see a family affair done right. I initially met Milo when doing some volunteer work at the same place nearby so I had to come by and check it out his coffee shop.

Artwork is very beautiful and fits the Barrio Logan scene perfectly. I arrived with nobody inside the business minus the workers, you had maybe 2 people outside enjoying the scenery and their drinks. Not greeted upon entering the business just gave me that stare with not asking if I had any questions. I dont recall his name but he was very skinny, curly hair or wavy and i believe he had braces, but not sure if he was having a bad day but something wasn't all there. I ordered 2 drinks, I forget the other but it had cinnamon on top. The drinks were just hand on the counter without saying which drinks is which, so i asked which one is which. Didn't hear me, so i kinda said again and he pointed them out not in a nice or rude way but the approach of how it was handled was not friendly. How can you have Mazapán without the Mazapán crumbles which are very iconic to the drink. I just found it super strange and did not care for it. The cinnamon based drink was good tho, which I'll give them that. Experience could have been better.

Wait outside on the sidewalk (no exterior seating) and someone will come to take you inside. Do not ring the door bell. The theme is to take it slow. Each customer typically waits 20-30 minutes to enter as part of how they do things, even if there is open seating inside. Not sure if they use a timer to space entries but it seems consistent. They take one group in at a time. Interior: A few tables around the wall and then bar seating. Would not recommend for parties greater than 2, there just isn't the space. They welcome service animals, babies/children and strollers from what I observed. The music was very, very loud. It was difficult to hold a conversation. I did not see a bathroom. Ordering process: After seating you wait for a little bit for them to bring small water cups and a QR menu with a table number and a set of rules. They do not have a physical menu, you must use your phone to order. Cell phone reception was dicey and took a long time to load. They have an interesting concept where you have a digital 'tab' open on their toast website. Unfortunately you must provide your full name, email and phone number. They have pour over drinks (note these can take 15-20 minutes), matcha, Hojicha and others. You may only order one drink per person at a time. They have a small snack menu with rotating foods. They use oat milk only. No substitutions allowed. After mobile ordering, drinks take 20-30 minutes as part of their take it slow vibe. Matcha $8 is from Paru tea and was very good. Hojicha $8 was too milky and didn't have a strong enough flavor. When you are done you walk to the register by the door and wait to be checked out. If they are making a drink you wait until they are finished. I wasn't really a fan. Staff were brusque. Music was too loud to converse.

The flavors all flow soooo well together and make for a drink that makes you want to come back for more. I live in north county San Diego and I already want to come back as soon as I can for more.

With all of the coffee shops popping up everywhere, it's nice to try a place that offers a different combination of flavors and unique drinks you can't get anywhere else.

The menu featured various matcha tea drinks which seems to be all the rage right now. The same seating arrangement of the bar countertop and tables across from it was available if you wanted to hang out and chill. A sign behind the bar described the ceremonial grade matcha that was used with the region of origin and the flavors imparted to the powder. Five different matcha drinks were offered along with hot and cold coffees and lattes. The top three matcha choices were priced at $8 each. I chose the Ordinary Pleasure which was the first one. Pandan sticky rice milk and mango puree were added to the matcha and topped with a salted coconut foam. I wasn't a fan of the foam, but the matcha flavor was intense and contrasted by the fruity puree on the bottom of the cup. The baristas were very focused with measuring the exact amounts for each ingredient in the drinks they were preparing. The matcha quality seemed to be very good based on what I tasted so maybe it's why the price was $1 higher than what I have tried elsewhere.

The drink exhibited every core to the classic Thai dessert and there was really little room for improvement other than the ratio of rice to coconut blend could be evened out. However, sipping the cocosmoothie with bits of rice made up my mind as I can confidently say this is #1. If you're looking for something different and tired of the conventional smoothie or milk tea, come experience this. Give some patience as orders are made fresh from this small hole in the wall. I plan on returning from LA as soon as possible.

I came on a Sunday morning & they weren't too busy. I questioned about the taro in the Taro Thai…read morecoffee & it seems that it's not fresh taro but a power that they use in their taro milk tea. The barista mentioned that it is on the sweeter side. When this was mentioned I felt like it would be a good pairing because the Thai coffees that I am used to having are typically on the strong side. I also heard from another customer that the Thai coffee had a slight mocha taste to it which I thought was interesting. I'm indifferent to powdered taro milk teas, although this one in particular, I did not enjoy. It was thick and sludgy, with an undertone of medicine reminding me of pepto bismol. The color was lovely, but not the taste. I wouldn't order this particular drink again. The drink I chose was medium size and it was only $5.38 (or 5.83, I can't remember & I don't think I got a receipt) ish which I can appreciate! The top portion of the drink was the Thai coffee and I really did like the flavor. Next time I'll get a different drink for sure! My friend tried the Green Thai Tea for the first time and really enjoyed the flavor of it. It had a floral jasmine + vanilla taste, a little bit on the sweet side-- but refreshing and delicious. The prices are pretty good (coffee and milk teas) and they also have smoothies (which can be on the more expensive side $9-12). Water cup is free upon request. They also have only a handful of seatings, but it's a nice area to walk around. They have umbrellas as well, but they do need a heavier stand for windy days as I've witnessed it fall into a car several times. Other than that, I recommend checking out It's Cafe Thai in Barrio Logan!

Sadly the ice cream shop was closed when I came back around 2pm. I found that to be odd, or perhaps it was open~ it was dark and doors were closed. But anyways, thankfully, Dark Horse Coffee Roasters was still open till I believe 3:30pm! (I went on a Sunday). They have indoor seating and a big space outdoor for seating. We found parking on the street, no paying needed. They also have a bathroom, which is nice, but most people don't ask for the key (since it's essentially open, only locked when in use). The door is frosted and you can see the outline of someone as they stand near it. I think it could be a little more frosty! There were a lot of workers the day I went and they were nice. The prices were good for specialty lattes and the guy informed us that both sizes use the same amount of shots (2), the only difference is quantity of milk! I got a classic, $6, 12 oz Iced Salted Maple (S'Maple) Latte. It was good, but I wouldn't mind if the salted maple was more flavorful. It's quite subtle! The outdoor space is really great for meet ups with large groups of family/friends/work. I think this location is really lovely and would recommend people to come check it out!
