The espresso is amazing quality and taste. Why can't other places make it like that and affordable? I don't get it, but I am GLAD this cafe exists! The young lady who worked there was super nice and made the espresso like an artist! That's what it takes to brew things correctly--CARE! I am a chemist so I know what good brewing entails. I don't write a ton of reviews but the espresso was THAT good you could just drink it straight with a little water. The true test of quality! Did I make my point yet?
Great place. Second cafe by the owner. Other is in Santa fe. Helpful staff and prompt drinks. Grab your own drinks with patio seating. Pet Friendly. Lox is great:) good morning
“Super cute.” Several family members of the female persuasion have been schooling me on the nuances of this phrase and my educational journey has led me to conclude that it applies to “Invita.” Worthy of becoming another arrow in our quiver of unique San Diego coffee destinations, the White Mocha and Chai Tea were both excellent. While ordering I realized that I need to develop a look that conveys the only appropriate answer to the query, “Would you like whipped cream on that?” Either that or perhaps find a t-shirt with the inscription, “Uh, yeah!” Although their storefront isn’t expansive, they have managed to deliver on their mission statement (see our pics) and the vibe they have created makes you just want to linger there. Conveniently located mere steps from the Poinsettia Train Station in Carlsbad, this coffee purveyor has inspired a new series that we hope to launch by the end of ‘23, so stay tuned! And that’s…Henry’s Take. #carlsbadcoffee #coffeeconvos
This little coffee shop is right next to the poinsettia coaster station. They have a really nice outdoor seating area, a small but high quality selection of food, healthy bottled juices, coffee galore, and most importantly a relaxing ambience. I will be returning.
My husband and I came across this cafe place in Carlsbad. The atmosphere was vibrant and fun, and the employees were very welcoming and friendly. The latte was great, too! Would definitely stop by again, next time I am in Carlsbad !!!!
