What customers say

Fantastic Coffee! I really enjoyed the Lil Pump Coffee it was like pumpkin pie in a cup! Expertly crafted highly recommend! I bought some beans to bring home with me because we were visiting the area. If I lived in California I would be a regular here! Decor is artful mod totally hip!

Love! Came last week to try their cappuccino and adore. This week we came to explore their huge room in the back where actually they roast the best coffee beans from all over the world including my birth country Brazil. Their variety is amazing and also they carry organic decaf which for me is a plus.

The iconic First Coffee Roaster in San Diego never disappoints! ~We had Organic medium roast drip coffee with a strawberry crème Babka from Split Bakehouse that was otherworldly! Said Babka was A brioche dough, so buttery, and the homemade strawberry jam filling was extraordinary, 6$!

I was hoping to go in the shot and pick out my own bag of fresh roasted coffee but they are closed. You can go up to the window or go through the drive through. I like flavored roasted coffees like Cinnamon roasted or coconut flavors.
