Tall Peppermint Mocha
Amanda J.

I stopped by to grab some gift cards and order a drink for myself. There was a line in the drive-thru, but when I went inside around 11am on a Wednesday, there was no wait at all. Service was friendly and quick. I ordered a tall Peppermint Mocha, which was served hot and had a great peppermint flavor without being overly sweet. The store was clean, well-organized, and welcoming. A smooth and pleasant visit overall.

I go to a lot of Starbucks, it is one of my favorite places because the drinks are usually consistent and the employees nice and this location is no different. We stopped here on our way out to the mall to grab a quick coffee. We mobile ordered and sat inside for a bit to just relax. Seating inside was nice and it was just great sitting for a beat and listening to the sweet tunes playing.

Pumpkin chai special recipe
Adri K.

They understood the assignment. 11/10 best pumpkin chai I've had in a while. It was perfectly ombré before I stirred it. Instagrammable for sure. We ordered 3 of them. The barista deserves a raise

Starbucks employees acting disrespectful upon entry. Telling me to go through drive thru when its clear im trying to enter building, at opening they still act disrespectful for me wanting to enter at opening time.

Perfect breakfast!

Using up the last of my gift cards, I stopped by here after going to Kaiser. I've driven by before and there was always a line for the drive-thru, so I just went inside. Nice layout of the space. Friendly greeting, and told to let them know when I was ready. I ordered a grande latte, the smoked bacon breakfast sandwich, a slice of lemon cake and a croissant. I think I waited about five minutes. The breakfast items came first and then the latte. That was quick! My only issue was that the coffee wasn't as hot as it usually is, perhaps the milk wasn't heated enough. I also should've taken the suggestion from the barista and had the croissant warmed up. Other than those two things, this place is solid. But again, I'm not a Starbucks fan, because I only go when I get a gift card. However, most times they are pretty consistent.

Venti , Iced Green Tea Matcha with Soy Milk and Caramel
Charline K.

5/5 Stars! I love how roomy this Starbucks is ! The workers were super fast and nice ! My drink came out soo fast and it was delicious I also got a cheese danish and that was also super yummy ! This Starbucks made my drink right! Cause at different locations some put not enough matcha or too much, and this one is just right ! I came here to get some work done, and I'm glad I came here , there's lots of tables for people to work or sit at. And this locations is very clean and cool. Especially on hot summer days . The drive through seems to be poppin, but they are still able to manage both inside and drive through which is great! The workers welcomed me once I got in and that was nice ! Especially since they are very busy. 5/5 would recommend this location :)

Accessibility: there is a (small) drive through as well handicap parking in front of the store. There is a ramp to get onto the sidewalk, and the door to enter is a pull door. Experience: I went through the drive through at 7:40 AM on a Thursday and it only took about 2-3 minutes from start to finish! Super fast service, really nice employees, and great food/drinks.

I had some leisure time this morning, and ofc I wanted to try a new coffee place…read more De Corazon is not hard to get to, it's right off of El Cajon Blvd, and across from Woodrow Wilson Elementary. There was plenty of parking on the main street as well as the side streets. It is tucked away behind an automotive shop, but you can easily find it by the sign/banner that says "Coffee!" I was greeted right away, and perused the menu. I decided to get the old fashioned cold brew, with a breakfast burrito, all totaling $11. The space is comfortably decorated, with oldies playing in the background, artwork on the wall, healthy, happy plants, a bookshelf for bookworms like me, and even a vending machine with healthy snacks! My first time trying a cold brew with citrus - it pleasantly surprised me. Very refreshing. The border style breakfast burrito hit the spot with eggs, potato, and two kinds of flavorful salsa. I asked the gentleman behind the counter how long they had been there. He said it will be almost 2 years there. I liked everything about this space. I hope they stay for another 2 years and beyond. Consider giving De Corazon some love, too!

Really nice spot, tucked off El Cajon next to some auto shops - just look for the coffee banner!…read moreStaff is warm, welcoming and aren't rushing customers. I paid about $10 for a cold brew old fashioned (orange is nicely present, bitter in the right way with a touch of sweetness) and a pork tamale (seasoned the whole way through, a touch of spice that's really pleasant. The salsa is more like a thick hot sauce, spicy and tomato-y). Would order both again! There are a few small tables, and they were setting up a back courtyard space for an art exhibition.

I don't often write reviews, despite never being at a loss for words. But do you know that feeling…read morewhen you appreciate something so much that it becomes impossible not to share it? I'm talking about that 'scream it from the mountaintops' level of adulation and praise. Like a book that stunned you to your core and the only way to relive that feeling is to get others to read it as well. University Coffee is that book. Proudly on display right around the corner. I was recommended this coffee spot by a fellow gym goer after a heated game of pick-up basketball. She told me she basically lives there (turns out she owns it) and through some strange magic I felt a need to find out more. Heck, I'm hopelessly addicted to caffeine - like any good working-class stiff. Let's give it a go. From the moment I walked in, I was enthralled. As if someone had carved a section of nirvana and placed it on a cozy street corner. Entering, calming music set the tone as the art and ambience emanated warmth. Being indecisive, I slowly trundled up to the register where a sharp and welcoming gentleman greeted me like I had been a regular frequenting for years. His name was Allen and this man made me feel like the long journey I was on could wait and I might find respite in this place. This is where I became hooked. Seeing my indecision the woman behind him (Angela, who I recognized from her unfortunate loss at the basketball courts) stepped towards me smiling to say hello and ask what I was in the mood for. I attempted to sound sure and asked for the special that day which was a delicious sounding matcha latte that I requested iced. Deep regret filled my heart as I focused long enough to observe the menu, seeing a pantheon of unique drinks that all would likely make my head spin. Almost clairvoyantly detecting my fear of missing out; she recommended some of the food options, making me an insanely delicious, filled croissant. She gave me an extra because she could somehow tell that I'm perpetually hungry. Not leaving anything to chance I opted for the fresh baked cookie sitting on the counter shelf as well. As I briefly waited and enjoyed my order, people came and left all seemingly captured by that same feeling washing over me. Bliss. I've been back to Uni Coffee multiple times now and each time I get to enjoy another handcrafted drink recommended almost specifically for me. I sit and enjoy the regulars sharing their stories with Angela as she listens intently and shares her thoughts. I curse myself for spending years making instant coffee at home or picking up some formulaic drink after waiting in a queue while the people around me stare at their phones. They say the best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago, but second best is today. With that, I thank the girl on the basketball court for teaching me it's not too late to appreciate the good things in life. P.S A customers dog came up to me and let me pet it for a really long time while I was there on that first visit. This may or may not have affected my review of this establishment.
