I had a nice Cafe Americano and a large raspberry cookie from this coffee shop at The Gym. The Americano was well made with just a touch of bitterness towards the end but not much. They put just the right amount of ice and milk in the Americano. The raspberry cookie, baked by a local baker, was very tasty. There was no holding back on the raspberry flavor. The lemon icing drizzled on top was good, too. The two young ladies behind the counter were very cool. They offered good conversation and were friendly. The coffee shop offers some inside seating and a very good amount of outside seating. Their baked goods are locally baked. read more

First time here and located right next to "The Gym" on third Avenue in downtown Chula Vista. It was the Chula Vista Starlight Parade and they had a special limited menu for the event. We opt for a Latte and Americano. They were busy, considering the hundreds of people who turned out for the event but was friendly to each customer, fast and efficient. My latte was delicious, although I asked for a vanilla latte. My husband ended up with an americano and said it was strong but good. He likes his coffee strong. Would definitely come here again. The inside is small and quaint with an outside patio that was not setup (more than likely because of the event) but a cute little Cafe. They offer cookies and muffins as well as hot chocolate, which was a lot of their orders yesterday 12/6/25. Pricing is relatively priced considering the price of everything nowadays. Highly recommend giving them a shot. Not sure what their regular menu is, but my husband has been here before and loved the taste of their coffee as he drinks black mostly. read more

As a matcha lover, I'm always on the lookout for good matcha drinks, and this place didn't disappoint. I ordered the iced Banana Matcha Cinnamon Latte, it started off tasting like a creamy banana smoothie (so good) but got a bit too sweet after a few sips. I went back and asked if they could make it less sweet, and the barista was super kind and happy to redo it. The remake was perfect, just as tasty but more balanced to my liking. Next time I'll know what to ask for. Great customer service and great menu selection. Can't wait to come back and try more! read more

This place is tiny but mighty! I been coming here now almost once a week as I have appointments twice a week around the corner from this coffee shop. And well, so far I've been in LOVE with their banana cinnamon matcha tea! It's amazing! You gotta try it out! I have tried some of their refrigerated meals, one of my favs is the rice with broccoli with chicken breast! Sounds simple but it's soooo sooo good! The broccoli is cooked with just the enough crunch but softness good, the rice is very yum, and the chicken breast... I need their recipe I've never had chicken breast so juicy and tender before! It's located in the heart of down town Chula Vista, right by a lot of medical offices, next to a gym Oh they've also had samples of banana bread... EXCUSE ME? These are amazing too!!! The staff is pretty friendly too, there's so me indoor seating and some outdoor seating if you prefer to enjoy your goodies al fresco! Love this place! read more

Cute little coffee café with both street (metered) and structural parking available. Unfortunately, the service wasn't the friendliest. It took a while for someone to take my order, and when they finally did, they seemed distracted chatting with someone else--which led to my order being incorrect. I asked for an iced vanilla latte with breve (half & half), but received a hot version instead. Also worth noting: they charge extra for breve, which not all cafés do. Prices are a bit on the higher side. They do offer pre-made meals from an outside meal prep company--I grabbed two, and they were actually pretty good. We also tried the blueberry and lemon poppy muffins, both of which were tasty. There's plenty of indoor seating and a nice patio area if you want to sit outside. read more

So thankful that they open so early. Got a latte to enjoy my early morning walk at the park. My honey cinnamon vanilla latte was perfectly warm and delicious. Cashier and barista were both super nice and friendly even at that early hour of the morning. There's a pretty decent selection's of baked goods, smoothies, amd protein drinks. Definitely something for everyone. read more

Thirsty Thursday today ordered a mazapan smoothie kept getting plastic bits in my smoothie. Came home and filtered it and there was a bunch of shredded plastic. Not sure what it was from but seemed like a significant amount and I'm surprised it somehow made it into my smoothie. read more

Good service! Avocado toast was on point. Surprisingly yummy. Their toast is one of the best in town!!! Highly recommend. Ambiance was chill. Good place to relax and do some work. read more

Protein shakes, overnight oats, and meal preps are what I buy here from time to time. The food is good and the cafe is right next to the gym so it's very convenient. They always give free pastries for customer appreciation and that is always appreciated. One thing I have seen many times is that the girls who work there are not very friendly. I come during the week and weekends various times of the day and it's an issue with all of them. They don't really appear to want to be there. Overall though good food. Customer service could be better. read more

The club sandwich that they have is amazing!!! I have also tried a few of their protein shakes and also no complaints!!! Honestly great food here! I try to also go on Thursdays when they have their discount on the protein shakes! Definitely give them a try! read more

Cute little cafe with protein shakes, fun coffee drinks and a small breakfast/lunch menu. Just stumbled upon this place cause I needed a quick lunch and pick me up. The server was very nice and patient as I tried to figure out what to order. I ended up getting a SF hazelnut iced latte and the Chipotle club. Both were delicious! The coffee was strong and I could taste the hazelnut without it being too sweet. The sandwich was even better! Slightly spicy Chipotle mayo was so good with the crispy bacon, fresh lettuce and tomato and turkey slices. But the bread was amazing! So soft and light, didn't even seem like i was eating carbs! I only ate half and that was enough to fill me up! I hope to try a protein shake or fun coffee next time! read more

Great selection for protein drinks and food after a workout. Pb OG is delicious and not too sugary sweet. read more

Pros: - great tasting protein shakes of all verities of protein including whey isolate. - prices are good for what you get. - macros on all items - meal prep containers options - good place to chill and recover after an intense workout session. Cons: - you tell me? Overall awesome place for a pre workout or post workout (or both ?) meal or just to have a good coffee or shake, don't need to be a part of the gym to enjoy it. Highly recommended! read more

We tried their food for the Taste of Third event. It was avocado toast and a peanut butter protein drink which we did not try due to an allergy. The toast was good! Servers were friendly! The place looks cute. I might be back. read more

If I could give zero stars, I would. Never give reviews but they are worthy of one. Seriously the most unfriendly staff, really act like it's hard to crack a smile and say good morning (funny because they act friendly on their Instagram videos) Anytime I walk in there it's like I'm interrupting their personal time of them gossiping to each other, God forbid they greet their customers. Coffee is horrible, no real food except for their meal prep which is prepared by an outside party. Overall I would say avoid this place unless you're into being treated like crap read more

Stopped by here a few days ago for protein shake. The protein shake was delicious but the customer service was meh. No greeting while you walk in, baristas are too busy socializing with non customers (friends). I guess some regulars walked in and then the cashier was friendlier and acknowledged them. Either way brush up on customer service and this place would be a bit better. Location is convenient with plenty of parking available (either on the street or lot adjacent to them). read more

This is a small cafe adjacent to the Chula Vista location of The Gym (TG), hence the name TG Cafe. It's a convenient pit stop for those who are members. Parking out front on 3rd Ave is metered so you will have to find a side street further away if you don't want to pay. The inside does not have much seating, but there is an outdoor patio to the south of the building where you can sit and relax al fresco. The menu was mainly beverages with nine styles of coffee and five types of protein smoothies/shakes. Food was limited to avocado toast, bagels, and pastries. The OG PB was my smoothie choice which had almond milk, banana, peanut butter, and chocolate protein. These protein smoothies/shakes are to be consumed immediately before or after a workout in order to aid in muscle recovery. In my case, I just wanted to sample one to compare to a similar product elsewhere. The taste and size of the drink were on par with the competition. read more

This place is right next to the gym, which is super convenient. Service was a little slow as there was only one person working. they have a nice menu and have premade meal preps available for purchase in the fridge. We ordered the brotein, OG PB, and the taro protein shakes. They all had really great flavor. I love how the peanut butter is spread onto the cup. They're pretty expensive for a shake. We paid around $9/shake. Worth a try for sure if you're in the area! read more

Great coffee! I had an Americano. Cute little Cafe on 3rd. They have a few different choices for sweets, and lots of drinks.

The person who was single handedly working this morning was friendly, kind, and helpful. I had the matcha latte which was good and the avocado toast which was decent, every business seems to have a different way of making it. I would definitely return due to the service I received. read more

I love this place! it's so welcoming. I found out about it on instagram. thirsty Thursdays are the best, smoothies are $4. :)

I am always looking for local businesses. Found this place on my morning walk to work. I know I will be back to check out the rest of their menu. Bagel with cream cheese is what I was craving price , taste and customer service did not disappoint. Thank you read more

It's ok. They don't sell regular coffee or drip as it is now known but "americano" only. Great way to manipulate prices yet alone the masses which by what I saw the only people coming in were the ones from the gym next door to them. read more

Amazing service, coffee and protein shakes. This place feels like home. Whether you just hit the gym next door or not this place is a must. All of the employees are wonderful and super friendly specially James, Andrea and Amir. I wish they would add tips to the online pay system as I hardly carry cash on me and these guys deserve the tips. read more

Best protein smoothies and best customer service ever! Very friendly thank you guys!

I wanted it to be good because I've heard amazing things about this place but the service was so horrible it was 2 lady's they looked mid 30s maybe a little older one was a blond and one had dark hair we got the shakes and if you've had proteins shakes you know they have a thick consistency they were watered down it's crazy because I know it's illegal to tamper with food and I was going to asi for a refund but we just let it go. Do better. read more

Service, great coffees full menu, and merch. Good deal on shaker bottles for protein shakes.

Super convenient. You can get your shake after your workout. Also if you work out early mornings you can stop by to get your coffee. Open at 5 am on weekdays , wish they open early on Saturdays as well ... Andrea also makes the best shakes read more
