On our way back from San Diego we stopped at Vista Bean for a quick cup of coffee. And I'm just so glad that we did. Because as soon as we walked in Hannah and Shannon were so inviting and extremely friendly. We ordered the banana bread latte and the salty cocoa latte. Both so so delicious !! We'll definitely be back not just for the delicious coffees but for the warm and inviting hospitality!! That girl :) read more

Great coffee period. Service was good lots of parking spaces. Only negative was the location was out of no where. But that is very minor, and it could be positive so that the cafe makes it more private. Must try it! Good!! read more

Coffee was good. Matcha was good. That's the important part for a coffee shop. We had breakfast and drinks here and sat inside. We had the following: Cold brew with banana pudding cold foam. Not a bunch of banana pudding taste to it, but it was a nice addition to the cold brew. Strawberry matcha - you could taste the strawberry and it was a very nice balance. Ham and cheese croissant - I would not get this again. It was too buttery/greasy and the everything seasoning really took away from the small amount of ham and cheese it had. Almond croissant - was good, with a nice filling inside of it. We would for sure get this again if we got food again. We ate inside, it's a large open space that was LOUD, lots of echos and noise. When we first came the place was packed and by the time we finished up it did thin out, but it was still loud inside. This is not a place to come to chill out that's for sure. The workers also made zero effort to put any volume level when calling out the names of the order. Not sure if this was good or not but it was a guessing game if your order was ready. The items did have your name printed on them so it was easy to find, you just had no idea when your order was ready. I was at the counter getting napkins next to the pick up area and I still could not hear the name the workers called out. But I guess if they yelled it would just be even more loud inside than it already was. I would come back, but it would be a to-go order for sure and would probably just get drinks. read more

The location was cute and quaint with a calm, welcoming atmosphere. The customer service was excellent--everyone was friendly and made the experience enjoyable. I noticed a couple of moms chatting while their kids played, while others were working on their laptops, which gave the café a relaxed and inviting vibe. My favorite part of this location is the outdoor seating. You might not notice it at first since it's tucked away past the restrooms, but it's the perfect spot to enjoy some fresh air. There's also plenty of parking, which is a huge plus. My go-to drink is usually a mocha Frappuccino, but they don't offer blended drinks--only iced beverages. That ended up being fine because their iced mocha was delicious, and the coffee itself had a great flavor. I'll definitely be back! read more

I looove that their coffee is organically farmed and processed in Uganda, then locally roasted in Vista, CA with a simple mission, "Love Coffee. Love People More". I'm all about spreading some LOVIN'. It's greaaat that Vista Bean is passionate about connecting people. When I walked in for my first time, the coffee shop was bright and spacious with positive vibes. The staff were really helpful when I had questions. I left satisfied with my latte. The sweetness was pretty balanced which is not the typical case for me. I was open to it and can't wait to go back to try something new. This is definitely a recommended spot for the Yelp Community :-) read more

I drink iced lattes with whole milk all around north county and, Vista Bean, affirmed why it's my favorite this morning. A kind and knowledgeable young woman took my order and I said I wanted a small amount of sugar free sweeten so as not to overpower the flavor of the espresso. She recommended a bit of sf Carmel and a little extra ice-a bit less milk=highlighted espresso flavor-simple but not obvious to the this latte novice. Thank you Vista Bean for your delicious latte, cozy and fresh atmosphere and exceptional customer service. read more

Very nice coffee shop with plenty of sitting and parking. The Coffee is nice and strong with bold flavors. Large coffee menu and some good eats. I will be back again. read more

We came in to try out their coffee. The menu is small for food (pastries) but a decent size listing for coffee. You can add syrups to your liking. There is one register running so be patient. My husband ordered the drip and I had a decaf americano. Additional costs to adding syrups and alternative milks. Coffee was good. Ethically sourced. We brought our own cups which takes $0.10 off your order. You can enter a phone number for points if you are going to continue to come here. Looks like a great space for catching up with friends or co-working. Parking can be limited if busy. read more

- huge lot with its own parking and a massive interior! Perfect for studying/working - they had fun seasonal offerings and a solid coffee menu - I got the honey bunches of coffee ($6.25 for 12 oz) which has marshmallow and pecan syrup - it's a very sweet drink so the espresso gets kinda covered, I mainly tasted the vanilla-y marshmallow flavor not so much the pecan read more

Another must try coffee shop in Oceanside! This place is pretty big and has a nice size parking lot. It is a little difficult driving into the parking lot since it is so close to the on ramp to get on the 78 and the 15 south. We went around noon and we had to do a couple loops before there was not traffic blocking the entrance. Oh and we were coming from the 78. If coming from the coast, it should be a lot better. Even though there was ample parking, it was full. Hunters steakhouse is next door and I kinda got the feeling that the coffee shops lot is being used as overflow. There wasnt too many people inside. I love when coffee shops have seasonal drinks on top of their regular coffee. I got the honey bunches of oats latte with oat milk which was made of marshmellow and praline flavors. My husband got the maple pancake cold brew along with regular drip coffee. It was all so delicious. The drip coffee didn't even need sweetener! The ambience was nice. More upbeat than the other chill coffee spots. I can see it as a good hangout spot to get coffee with friends! read more

Vista Bean is a very unique coffee shop that is committed to supporting the people and community of Uganda. All of their coffee is organically farmed and 100% of the money goes to their farmers, that's amazing! I ordered a simple cold brew with coconut cold foam and I can taste the richness of the coffee beans, probably one of the best cold brews I've had. This little shop is located right before the freeway so I definitely suggest checking this place out for your next pit spit, there is plenty of parking and seating options inside. I didn't try any of their food options, although everything looked great-- especially the pastries. My only critic is I wish the barista was a little more friendly with a welcome, and a little loud and clear when I was asking for recommendations. I didn't feel like my presence was acknowledged. read more

We love trying new local coffee shops, and decided to pop into the Vista Bean on a Monday afternoon. Lots of parking here, the interior of the space is airy and bright with lots of natural lighting and many tables. It would be a good place to sit and get a few hours of work done. however, only a few tables have access to a socket so keep that in mind . They also have a fun little assortment of items you can shop for, including handwoven baskets, coffee paraphernalia, and other merchandise. They have pastries and prepackaged snacks, some of which were gluten-free, which is always appreciated. I got a iced strawberry Matcha, and it was very good. They use ceremonial grade Matcha and a yummy strawberry jam/purée spread. It takes a little bit to mix it into the iced Matcha, but once you blend it in there, as I did, it was really tasty. The staff was very friendly as well! Overall, really enjoyed my drink and the good vibes, and would love to come back. read more

Another coffee shop that I've been driving by forever and finally my husband and I decided to stop in on our way to downtown SD. So happy we went! They have a great parking lot, so it's pretty easy to get in and out of, and they have a great amount of indoor seating. Perfect place to study, meet up with friends and family, or work for a few hours. As soon as I saw ceremonial grade matcha on the menu, I knew what I had to order. I ordered their ceremonial iced matcha with lavender syrup and almond milk and it was perfect! I could drink this all day long as they did a fantastic job. My husband ordered a hazelnut latte and my goodness it was delicious. I love a great balance in a drink, usually not too sweet but not bitter either, and his hazelnut latte was just the right balance. I was honestly amazed at how good it was. He claimed it's the best latte he's had in years. Both of our drinks were so good! I noticed they had some gf/vegan options of pastries too. As soon as I saw the blueberry lemon scone, I knew I needed to try it. It looked as good as it tastes! I loved it, and it's not noticeable as being gf/vegan when tasting it/the texture of it, but if you aren't used to gf/vegan baked goods, you may notice the slight difference. Delicious flavor overall! read more

When visiting from LA, I now know where to get my coffee en route to San Diego. Let's cut to the chase: The cortado was excellent. It revealed the superb quality of their espresso with just a light helping of whole milk. My non-coffee-drinking buddy shockingly ordered the pistachio mocha latte, which he utterly consumed with no objections. My other friend got the matcha, which tantalized me from the sidelines (*I'll have to try it next time). Now for the setting: great lighting, chill and pleasant vibes, comfortable seating and tables. Not least although last in mentions, the people working here are true gems. Genuine folks who go the extra mile. If I had a say in the matter, the employees, managers, and maybe even the owners should get a pay raise. Hands down 10/10 read more

A great family owned coffee shop in the heart of Oceanside right off the freeway! The service was Super friendly, fast and kind! The baristas looked like they LOVE their job. There are some coffee shops that you go to that baristas look like they have been dragged there to work. You know exactly what I am talking about..... Right?! Well not at this place! The baristas were talking so highly of the owners and the owners were not even in the coffee shop. Anyways, if you ever need to go to a charging station, give this place a visit! read more

Great atmosphere and great coffee! I liked the choice of outdoor or indoor seating. Easy off freeway access.

We bumped into this spot looking for a brunch spot. The environment is nice and calm. They had an interesting beverage in the menu that I just had to try. Uncle B Mexican Cocoa. Be warned it is a hot drink and I don't mean "hot" steaming hot I mean as in my stomach will feel it later get me down milk kinda deal. JC. Its not that spicy but it is spiced for sure. Servir was great. I asked the barista what was in the cocoa and she warned. Cayenne. Perfect got it. Try it out. read more

Fun new coffee spot in Oceanside. The interior is spacious and the large windows let in a lot of natural light. There is a good amount of seating and a good amount of parking.

Cute coffee spot with plenty of parking! Stopped here on my lunch to grab an afternoon coffee and I am glad I did. I was greeted as soon as I stepped in, which felt great!

I rate this coffee an 8 out of 10. My latte was a little sour I believe this is from the espresso they use. The cinnamon roll was yummy!! My daughter loved her chocolate croissant. I also purchased a bag of espresso and it wasn't the greatest it was fair. Good service, a lot of parking. Open space for seating. read more

I stopped on a Saturday morning on my way into San Diego, and I wanted a treat. I Yelped local coffee shops on my way, and stumbled upon this Vista Bean Coffee. The interior design is modern and inviting. The staff was friendly. I tried their cortado and their Mexican Hot Chocolate. The cortado was up there as far as taste. I loved it. The Mexican Hot Chocolate was unique as they use cayenne pepper. I thought it was nice that the staff member let me know it was spicy to make sure it was something I would actually like. I love spicy flavors, and really enjoyed it. The portions are fair, and I looked at their coffee bean bags, I felt they were comparable to other coffee shops I've frequented as well. Highly recommend . read more

Lots of drink and food choices. Great open space with plenty of seats and tables to hang out comfortably. Cold brew on nitro is what got me in the door and it tasted delicious. I did NOT enjoy ice being added since it kind of broke down the creaminess of the nitro and watered down the coffee as time went on. Getting in and out of the parking lot can be tricky because if you go too far the last driveway is blocked off to prevent traffic mishaps with the freeways, so just make sure you don't go too far. read more

had to try out the new coffee shop in the area. might be a bit difficult to get to, but the parking is pretty spacious, and there's a few more spots behind the shop. I liked the open space and plenty of light even with the cloudy weather. there's a bunch of tables and chairs, with a few outlets along the walls. the drip was good but my partner got a triple espresso and even though it had a good taste profile it was a bit watery for a triple shot. either way we'll definitely be back for drip, and maybe even get a pastry next time :) the baristas were quick and nice too! read more
