Got to enjoy Spill the Beans in Seaport Village for the first time!!! Location: *At beautiful Seaport Village in Downtown with gorgeous waterfront views! *About a 20-minute walk from where I was staying. The directions with the address given got me lost, but with a quick scenic detour I was able to locate it. In hindsight it forced me to wander around Seaport Village, which I hadn't visited in years. Ambiance: *Beautiful weather, blue skies, and a very windy San Diego afternoon *Surprisingly uncrowded for a Saturday around 130-2pm. *Plenty of outdoor seating *Bonus points for relaxing views of the Coronado Bridge and waterfront. *Perfect spot to sit, sip, and eat while appreciating the San Diego views! Customer Service: *Excellent customer service from start to finish! *The employee taking my order was patient and helpful when explaining the vegan options! *Service was quick and efficient despite a small line. *Special shout-out to the gentleman who noticed I was still sitting there waiting and informed me that my order had already been ready for pick-up. LOL I didn't even notice the pick-up window! OY! I'm such a noobs! Food and Drink order: *Garlic and onion bagel (vegan) with vegan cream cheese (YAY!), arugula, tomatoes, and red onions - savory, fresh, and delicious but I do wish the bagel was toasted a bit more. I like mine crispy! The vegan cream cheese was surprisingly good. I wish I had asked what brand they use. *I appreciate that they offer vegan options - just make sure to ask which bagels are vegan. Luckily, I snagged the last one. Their bagels sell out fast especially their special flavors! *My iced matcha latte with almond milk was made 50% sweetness, which was perfect. As someone who has gotten into matcha lately, I was very happy with the flavor. It wasn't overly sweet and allowed the matcha flavor to shine. Final Thoughts: Between the scenery, friendly staff, delicious bagel, and perfectly balanced matcha latte, I had a wonderful afternoon. I'll definitely stop by again the next time I'm in the area.
Super solid experience here. Don't let the long line intimidate you because it moves surprisingly fast. They even open additional iPads as registers when it gets busy, so the wait isn't bad at all. Being right by the water gives you a great view while you enjoy your food, making it a perfect spot for a quick bite and some people-watching if you're visiting San Diego. Now onto the bagels... wow, they definitely get the SMEAR right. I believe all of their bagels and cream cheeses are made in house, and you can absolutely taste the difference. If you're a garlic or onion lover, the onion cream cheese is a must-try. Everything came out quickly, even during the rush. Pro Tip: Someone recommended ordering the drinks at 50% sweetness, and THANK YOU. That was the perfect balance for me. Any sweeter would have been too much. The best part is they'll customize the sweetness level to your preference.
Am I the only one that heard the theme song from Kim Possible when they see item Basic Sitch on the menu?! I know I can't be the only one because I heard it loud and clear the moment I read it. I always stop by this place since I discovered it last year when I visited Seaport Village. The last time I was here, I was barely getting introduced to coffee and had my usual (iced vanilla latte with oat milk) but I like to try something on the menu when I find a cute little place while exploring. I'm glad I stuck to that because Basic Sitch was DELICIOUS, I wish I had gotten a medium. Props to the guy at the register because I kept going back and forth attempting to order but while waiting for family to join me and trying to get my smaller kiddos to calm down, I was everywhere and he was very patient once I finally went up to order. He was friendly and polite. Perfect weather to enjoy an iced coffee for the long drive back home.
When in Seaport Village along the water in San Diego, Spill the Beans is the hot spot for coffee. I'm ngl, they pulled me in with their pothead vibes haha! They have a cute theme of supporting us ganja folks and I love all the cute sayings around the outside of the shop. Instagram friendly photos for days! I also liked that they had a Chaga Cold Brew for $8.25. I appreciate a more natural kinda morning high in my morning caffeination. It was delish and huge! My friend and I also shared the McLovin ($13) breakfast sandwich which was so packed with ingredients, there was no way it couldn't be tasty. Scrambled eggs, breakfast sausage patties, cheddar cheese and maple butter made for such an indulgent, protein packed breakfast. Loved the food and vibes at Spill the Beans! I'll absolutely pop in again next time I'm in Seaport Village!
Thank you Yelp for the opportunity to try out Spill the Beans! I'm not sure how I haven't tried this coffee shop before especially since they have a fair amount of locations throughout the different neighborhoods of San Diego... Regardless, I was so grateful to give the Seaport Village location a try! The baristas were so sweet!! I got the iced chagaccino latte before getting my steps in at Seaport Village. My latte was ready in no time and the minimal wait was so worth it cos the chagaccino is so tasty! I came by around evening time, so I randomly caught a Bob Dylan concert at the Rady Shell. Live music, a nice walk, and a good latte is honestly the best combination. I loved this spot so much! So glad Spill the Beans has a Seaport Village location, but I'm excited to try the other locations out too.
The coffee here is good, but the real reason we come is the bagels. Delicious bagels with a huge SCHMEAR of cream cheese, and they have a big variety of cream cheese flavors to choose from. The bagel sandwiches are also killer, my personal favorite: the Lox, Stock, and Loaded. Nova Lox type sandwich loaded with plenty of smoked salmon. Definitely a must try place for an excellent bagel breakfast.
I always stop by here whenever I'm around Seaport, and this visit was no exception! This time, I came with my husband and our little dog on a Sunday. From the moment we walked in, the service was excellent. The woman who took our order was so friendly, relaxed, and welcoming. I ordered a plain bagel with ube cream cheese, and it was an easy 10/10--so delicious! I also got the cinnamon honey latte with oat milk, which was really good and gets an 8/10 from me. My husband ordered a chai with oat milk and two decaf shots, and he gave it an 8/10 as well. We were lucky enough to grab a small table, and it was the perfect spot to sit, relax, and people-watch. Overall, we had a great experience and can't wait to come back!
"Dang that bagel was GAS!" Is exactly what your reaction would be if you tried out Spill the Beans. I particularly like this location at Seaport Village since you get to enjoy the wonderful foods, drinks, and view. The shop is so cute and has a good amount of seating around it. I particularly enjoyed the area near the pick-up area where you can sit and eat and had a nice view of the boats and water. When we arrived, we were greeted by Riley who I gave my full faith in for my order. She chose my drink (Cinna-Bee) and my bagel (Serrano, Habanero & Jack Cheese Bagel with Shallot & Chive Cream Cheese). Truly phenomenal. Both were sooo good. The bagel had the perfect amount of spice to it and looked at how decked on the cream cheese was. Really doesn't get better than this. Riley was so incredibly sweet in taking our order and giving us recommendations on what's good and what was a must try. We ordered a San Dieggo sando and just look at how it looked. The taste was even better than the picture. Sabrina gave us our order (I believe she made the Sando and Bagel) and was super nice! Honestly the service here was such a wonderful cherry on top for the already fantastic foods. Really awesome shop to dine at and I honestly will be coming back more often. Overall rating: Food: 10/10 Service: 11/10 Menu: 10/10 Shop Vibes: 10/10 Price to Overall Dining (POD): 10/10
Great coffee with reasonable prices. Friendly service. Iced Blondie mocha with macadamia nut milk was delicious!!! That was the first time I've had macadamia nut milk. I grabbed one of their tasty looking salted chocolate chip cookies. Squishy and delicious it hit the spot.
STILL SUPREME! Spill the Beans continues to be one of my favorite coffee spots, certainly my favorite in Downtown. I stopped by for an iced La Vida Mocha during my walk and the coffee was superb. I highly recommend this treat, it's great with oat milk! The drink comes with rich, authentic chocolate. Service was quick and pretty friendly. I waited less than 5 mins for my order on a slow midweek afternoon. The music played at this location is ICONIC. They're still rocking Kim Petras. I love the laidback vibes and stool seating offering views of the marina. I STILL stop by Spill the Beans even when I'm busy during Comic Con season. During, my visit a few days ago. I spotted cute merch, like a corduroy hat and neat shirt with the coffee pot mascot.
Came about 15 mins. before close, so I'm not upset about a lot being out of stock, but service left room to be desired. As first timers, we had some questions - sighs and eye rolls and very curt answers told us this was not welcome. Coffee was fine. Otherwise, location is lovely, just in front of the ocean. I'd come back, but earlier.
The staff at this place were amazing. The girl behind the counter was nice approachable. They made our coffee super quick. They have an outside area where you can sit and catch up with friends or just take in the view. This place was a great way to start our walk. Thank you Spill the Beans for your hospitality and thanks for getting my Saturday started off right.
Cute location in seaport village with a seating area on the side, I got the blondie mocha iced and it was yummy
Elite Experience: Spill The Beans and Coffee and Bagels What a beautiful morning to be by water and enjoying a warm Bagel & Chai Latte and bring my family too. We were greeted by Santana with a lovely smile and as we placed our orders I have plain bagel I know I'm boring but it was stuffed with avocado & Habanero & jalapeño Bagels with bacon an egg and cheese for my son With Hot Coffee, Then she ordered a breakfast bagel with sesame bagel sausage, egg, cheese And hot strong coffee like she enjoys We enjoyed every bite and the early morning out by the waterfront What great experience we had I was generous with tips I happy to make them know we appreciate them And we now know how good it is here Thank you to our CM Hannah And all who helped bring this altogether And Audrey thank you too read more

While in Seaport Village in San Diego, i found Spill the beans coffee along the boardwalk. It was super busy with a long line to order, but it was worth the time. Service was fast for my Iced Latte and it tasted great! Lots of outside seating with ocean view. read more
Stopped by and grabbed their house favorite latte - Basic Sitch. It's made with caramel sauce, vanilla syrup, milk, and espresso on top. I ordered it light on the caramel, and it was absolutely delicious, smooth and well balanced. Great views by Seaport Village, which makes it a perfect spot to grab a coffee and enjoy the area. read more

I ordered a bacon and cheddar bagel with chives cream cheese. I like the variety of bagels. This place is in a good location so there is always a line. The bagels don't have the structure of a New York bagel. They are good but they are a little bit flat to be a NY bagel. The cappuccino was very good. My girlfriend had a latte and she also commented the coffee was delicious. The view is amazing. There are individual tables and bar stools overlooking the marina. It could not get better. The service is fast and courteous. read more

Started our Juneteenth with a Spill the Beans Yelp event, and everything went smoothly! I came with family and ordered the Basic Sitch and a Chaggacino, along with their June special, the ube pandesal bagel with ube cream cheese. Everything was a 10/10! The line was long but the wait for the food and drinks wasn't long at all. The baristas were all friendly and it was easy to find a table because there is plenty of seating all around the cafe. Plus, there's a parking lot nearby that was free due to the holiday. This is definitely the hot spot for coffee at Seaport Village. We will make sure to stop by again next time we're in the area! read more

Stopped by Spill the Beans while in San Diego and enjoyed it! I ordered an iced vanilla latte and the Lil' SOB Kids Sandwich with sausage. The latte was good and balanced. The sandwich was surprisingly filling and full of flavor, with well-seasoned sausage. Everything tasted fresh, and the service was friendly and quick. Great spot for a casual coffee and breakfast -- I'd definitely come back! read more

Ordered the thighmaster bagel sandwich with extra egg whites & avocado from doordash. This bagel sandwich was soaked in white sauce and dripping in avocado mush. Couldn't even pick it up to eat it. So expensive and this was a mess. Supposed to be a lighter healthier option but this weighed 5 pounds from all the mess on it. Super disappointing after the high cost. Also Burnt bagel was supposed to be "double toasted" not burnt. Don't recommend read more
Spill the Beans is a cute coffee kiosk that looks like a little lighthouse on the edge of Seaport Village, such a fun spot! The setup is simple with an order counter and pick-up window, and the menu covers all the basics: drip coffee, cold brew, energy drinks, tea, bagels, breakfast sandwiches, pudding bowls, and even a kids menu. They also make it easy with online ordering if you're in a hurry. I love the playful merch and their Kool-Aid man style character; it adds a quirky, welcoming touch. We got lucky jumping in line just before a big crowd hit. Ordered a basic hot latte and enjoyed a seat at one of their tables. The drink could've used a little sweetener, but it was still nice and warming on a chilly afternoon. Great spot for a quick coffee, a snack, and good vibes right by the water! read more
My friends and I relaxed on a Sunday afternoon enjoying the sun and view of the harbor while we sipped on our iced coffee drinks. I had the OTP with oat milk. Loved it! There was a splash of cinnamon which added a layer of flavor explosion. The service was a bit slow, but we didn't mind. We were all happy with our drinks. read more

quick for how long the line was, love the location by the waterfront. the coffee was delish! I got the blondie mocha (white chocolate, vanilla, and macadamia), 1/2 sweet & with oat milk, iced. I loved it, might add an extra shot next time bc it needed more coffee flavor but that's personal preference!! read more
After being introduced to this lil hidden gem, 4 yrs ago, still loving it!! It's the perfect stop on my walks. Not only do they offer specialty drinks and cater to your needs but the service has always been great. See photo for the gentleman that helped me today. His friendly service, knowledge of caffeine equivalents between different drinks, and making sure I knew where to find extra Stevia, if needed -which I needed, LOL, and patience...it's this kind of service that makes me feel welcomed and returning -even when slightly out of the way!! Cute outdoor seating areas all around. Truly love it here on sunny days, like today. read more
My sister and I stumbled across this place during our San Diego trip last year and we made sure to revisit when were in San Diego for the week this year. We stayed at the Manchester Grand Hyatt so this location was super convenient. We visited on a Friday morning around 8:30AM. We weren't sure how busy they would be so we ordered ahead just in case. I ordered a Medium Iced La Vida Mocha ($6) and a Lox, Stock & Bagel on Serrano, Habenero & Jack Cheese Bagel ($14.99). My sister ordered a Medium Iced Basic Sitch ($6) and the San Dieggo breakfast sandwich on a Serrano, Habenero & Jack Cheese Bagel ($12.99). My sister and I both love spicy and the serrano and habeneros on/in the bagels had a great kick. The lox was fresh and the cucumbers provided the perfect amount of crunch in every bite. The egg in the San Dieggo bagel was cooked perfectly with a jammy yolk and the bacon was nice and crispy. Both drinks are on the sweeter side and delicious. We received a text when our order was ready and picked-it up at the pick-up window. The lady working the espresso machine and pick-up counter was friendly. We then took a seat at one of the tables and enjoyed our breakfast by the marina. It's a great place to people watch and start your morning. read more
