    Iced Americano with oat milk
    Michelle S.

    The Cup is a true local spot. I love coming here. The staff is always so nice and friendly. They serve coffee and more adult drinks along with pastries and hearty breakfast sandwiches. The coffee is excellent and full of flavor. I had an Iced Americano and a Birdie sandwich. The Birdie was fantastic. The bread is so good! The Americano, a classic.

    Iced Vanilla Latte

    This hole-in-the-wall coffee shop offers fast and efficient service. Their menu is simple with inexpensive prices. I ordered an iced vanilla latte that was delicious. Definitely worth it.

It was our first time there and we were looking at the menu and felt very rushed (there was no line)

    Ordered the birdie with turkey avocado sprouts cheddar and mayo for $11. Out of pretzel bread so we're having it on pressed wheat sourdough. Lives are super reasonable. Pacifico only $5 and matcha latte only $4. Okay, seriously, this is a hidden gem. Quality ingredients, cool vibe, smiling and efficient service by a new mom and a fair price all rolled into one!! Do it

    I ordered an iced honey vanilla latte with a hangover cure bagel. The bagel was really good and the drink was just okay. They were quite busy. The servers were professional, but not very warm. It seems like there are a lot of regulars, which is great, though the small place filled up quickly. I don't think I'd make a special trip to try it again.

    Egg muffin breakfast sandwich.

    Went here early for breakfast sandwiches and coffee. The Melty's and the Egg Muffin sandwich were amazing would recommend. Great vibes, chill service, and overall amazing experience.

    Latte after sitting 15 minutes, too hot to handle

    Are you open until 9am or 9pm? I'm seeing contradicting hours online

    Are the eggs cooked to order?

    Yes

    Any smoothies? What kinds?

    No. I don't believe they do. And if they do, the selection is small. I can't remember ever seeing one made there

I ended up getting an old fashion because I could not make a decision, lol. Kimi Wakamoto did a great job making engravings for everyone. I got a luggage tag! It looked so nice! SALLYMFINEART did a great job with her handmade portraits! My portrait looked cute and she even added Gir in the portrait! The dessert table and flower arrangements looked so pretty, it looked like Easter! I did inquire about the prices for a private event and the menu looked pretty good.

The service could be better. The last stop in, we had their special, a bbq chicken pizza. It was very dry, the sauce seemed to be dried up bbq sauce. It didn't taste very good and it was cold. I do plan on coming back and giving them another chance, we also have club meetings here every now and then. So we will see what happens next time.

Bottlecraft has several locations, but we have both agreed that the Oceanside location is our favorite. Bottlecraft is a bottle shop and tasting room - This means that you can taste a variety of beers, which taps continuously rotating - then pick up cans of your faves.. or try brand new cans to bring home. We love to grab a spot at the bar {typically to watch whatever sporting event is on TV}, or on the back outdoor patio space if we come with a group. When seated at the bar area, you can also chat with the amazing beertenders and ask for their recommendations if you're unsure what to try {I will always recommend a good Hazy or Double IPA}. The team here is always on point - Providing fantastic service as well as friendly conversation while you enjoy your brews! Not a beer drinker?! Hard Kombucha, Cider, Wine and Non-Alcoholic options are available - There is something for everyone! While enjoying your brews, if hunger hits, visit Shootz Fish & Beer - This is a stellar food spot tucked in the corner as you enter the shop. Do not skip out on the Potato Taco! It's the perfect pairing with a good beer - You will thank me later for introducing this combo into your life! ;-) Along with phenomenal beer, Bottlecraft is pet friendly and just a hop skip and jump to the beach - What's not to love here?! Calling all beer peeps - Are you on Untapped?? If so, let me know.. I'd love to connect and see what brews you are currently loving.. or not.

I was able to find beers that I have not been able to find anywhere else. Tried the sour that was on tap and bought the cascade kriek sour. There is a small corkage fee if you buy bottles and want to consume them there but it's worth it. They have a nice outdoor area that seems to be connected to the other businesses they are connected to. Will come back to try more beers.

They do charge for extra, which I get, but I wished for a little more to start. Their homemade ranch made up for it though!

It's very comfortable inside and currently they have cute Halloween window paintings! Ryan also did a great job suggesting the best options for us too! Beyond the great options here we also received such great service. Thank you so much, Ryan! If we lived in Oceanside this would definitely be our go to spot. Hopefully we can visit again soon!

This was my second time here, and I love everything about this place. First of all, kudos to the bartender--I forgot her name, but she was incredibly generous and kind. She accidentally forgot my drink and kept apologizing, but I told her it was totally fine since we had a large party. To make up for it, she gave me two shots instead of one and even added a big discount. The ambiance of this place is unique and very artsy. If you're looking for a cool, one-of-a-kind spot to hang out, this is it. There's so much attention to detail throughout--even the restroom door is thoughtfully designed with a modern, creative touch. My friend ordered a variety of cocktails, and everyone enjoyed them. The food was great as well. I ordered the hummus plate, and it was the best I've ever had--so fresh and served in a generous portion. My friends tried the pizza and a few other items from the menu, and everything got a thumbs up. If you're in the area looking for a cool place to hang out or planning a party, this is the spot. I'll definitely be back again soon.

First off, they have a "wait to be seated" sign at their entrance, but it took a while to get anyone to seat us. When we were inside, we noticed there was another entrance and people were just walking in, so "waiting to be seated" was just an option? We ordered a beer and seltzer and it took easily 10-15 minutes to get our drinks. Drinks that were in cans by the way. Music was good, DJs were good, but the whole vibe of the place is kinda everywhere. This lighting in this place needs to be more dimmed. DJs are spinning right in the middle of the room, and there's a clothes rack just chilling against the wall. The baristas are way in the back, and you can't really tell who works there. It took equally as long to get the check as it did to get my drinks. We only had 1 round of drinks. I dunno, waiting for canned drinks just threw me off. I can't imagine how much longer it would have taken to get a mixed cocktail. I only saw one guy mixing drinks and a bunch of women just hanging around. I'm assuming workers that look like they don't work there.
