This place has only gotten better since I remember it. Used to go back here in high school and college to study. It didn’t have food, beer, wine, and kombucha back then. I had a power outage and 7 zoom meetings to be on. I just kept ordering coffee and food all day while plugged into a outlet and settled into a comfy and convenient chair and table and worked the day away while they just let me be. It was glorious.
I really like all of the tables that truly make the place feel like a living room! The only problem is that it's so comfortable, there are so many people, and there just is not available seating all the time. It's a really interesting business model to have people come and sit down and hang out as long as they want. Almost seems like you'd want them to leave to allow space for more customers. But it was nice.
Really good freshly prepared food. I had the garlic aoli burger and a salad. Nice selection of coffee and tea. Very relaxing environment. The whole place looks like a giant living room. Lots of comfy couches and chairs. Students from SDSU come here to use the WIFI. My food was delicious. I shall return
Never disappoints, good for quick good food and coffee with a cozy atmosphere. Super friendly staff and awesome pastries! One thing I never enjoy here is using the restroom facilities, it doesn’t match the cute vibe of the place, it’s a bit of a gas station bathroom vibe, just a tip for management, not enough of a bother not to love this spot!
Smells like cigarettes everywhere (inside and out) but cool spot and lots of food options. Coffee options are pretty sweet, so I ask for less sugar. Outlets to work too!
I just drove by this place on College avenue and I didn't know what it was but it looked attractive and I walked in...really nice, cozy, friendly and very good food! 😋
Addendum: since I have found this place I am coming here regularly now the food is really really good!! 😍

FREE COFFEE FOR POLICE OFFICERS! Yay!
So, I have been patronizing this shop for years because the rotating staff is lovely and the coffee is consistent. I enjoy getting my work done here. Sometimes the food is way over salted and makes me parched but it's fine for the most part.
Today, the owner's son is here with his buddies, sitting in the dead center of the cafe, being EXTREMELY INCONSIDERATE of the other people inside. He is being VERY LOUD, debating politics, showing videos on full volume, laughing out loud, and having a great time without any regard for the other humans around him. The other folks here are all just glancing at each other, kinda wondering he has any idea that there are other people in the coffee shop. I think it's great that he's connecting with his buddies but they're borderline shouting inside the cafe and making it impossible to study-- even with noise cancelling headphones on. Several people have gotten up and moved/ left the cafe. They should have one iota of respect for the other people around, who are speaking at a normal volume.
This place is supposed to be European inspired and this behavior is unbearably anything but.
Next time I come, if I see this obnoxious kid sitting here, I will just go someplace else.
This place is great otherwise.
A+ first experience. It’s obvious that this is a popular place as soon as you arrive. Full tables, inside and out. The ordering and drink pick-up are a little awkward to navigate but not a total turn off. The espresso is tasty. Added a pump of English toffee to mine for a little ✨ razzle dazzle ✨. The other drink pictured is the “Green Lantern” (green tea, lemonade, mango). I enjoyed it but if unsweetened green tea is not your jam then I would stay away from this one.
Spinach & cheese stuffed croissant 🤌🏽
Potatoes (with a little ketchup) 🤌🏽
Seasonal fruit 🤌🏽
A couple more pieces of fruit would’ve been nice but overall pricing seems to be on par for what you receive. I will definitely be returning.
Hidden Gem!!!
Ambiance was fantastic!! Sat outside and enjoyed a perfect evening.
Ask for Pedro to be your server, he is a 5 star!
The red sauce is amazing, have the Spaghetti or Chicken Parm!
Great Cafe style sandwhiches and pastries however I was given a sandwich with moldy provolone. It struck me as odd how they didn't see green mold on white cheese when assembling. I quietly asked them to remake it with cheddar and they brought it out with pepper jack. My kids were already done with their food by the time I got mine and they didn't offer me a discount, a free pastry or anything. Kind of disappointed as I've been coming here for 28 years!
