Great coffee shop and more! Emmaline is a espresso gelato cold shake-like drink that is fabulous! Lavender Mocha latte! Gelatos! And lunch too! Fun staff who add to the experience!
Great neighborhood place with a real family feel, fantastic coffee & yummy treats (white chocolate chip cookie & latte hits the spot for me. Good to-go & nice to sit and watch the world go by

Great coffee and try the pizza salad. It sounds hokey but really tasty; base of amazing flat bread, seasoned and pannini toasted, topped with mozarella, warm, amd fresh greens, italian meats and cheese,,tossed with balsamic dressing...yummmm!
Awesome espresso and helpful barristas. It’s a must place to go in San Diego! I hope this lavAzza is is good at home as it was there. I’ll try it tomorrow in the espresso machine
The best coffee! It is my so to place for morning coffee when in San Diego.
I loved this place, I had a cafe au lait & then I had some kind of gelato milkshake. To make things even better, they not only had indoor seating, but also outdoor seating in the back with flames in the middle of each table. I'd come back.
stopped in for a cold coffee beverage while down in little Italy with gf. we both had the blended mocha drink, it was amazing. Looking forward to next visit and future drinks
Awesome place to hang... nice employees, clean, good ass coffee and treats. And just the location is amazing!
Nice employees and good place to hangout and we’ll be back next month in the area;

Excellent Coffee and Customer service was awesome!!
Increíble lugar, para pasar el rato, ame disfrutar un gran café en la mañana.
Riquisimo el chocolate caliente y el pay de queso
Excellent cappuccino and lattes. I've had cappuccinos in Europe and this place is comparatively very similar. One if the best cappuccinos I've had in the states. Great service, very chill employees, and great coffee!
Great coffee, very nice and friendly staff and a good variety of some sandwiches. If I come back to San Diego again I would definitely like to relax here for a while in the heart of Little Italy to enjoy that great taste of Italian coffee. Highly recommended!!!
Food: I ordered a single cappuccino and a biscotti. What a match in heaven. There are also plenty of drinks and food options. Italian and America options. Gelato, pastries, paninis and much more is available too.
Service: Place was packed but I got my order in no time and with accuracy.
Final word: Great for a quick stop!
Just espresso and gelato! Gelato had a guey texture that I didn't like. The portion is very generous and had real pistachios.
A great little coffee shop with delicious looking treats! There is indoor and outdoor seating, or to go! The service was friendly! I was so happy to see Vietnamese iced coffee available. It tastes wry similar to authentic. I stopped in a few times during my visit to SD. Definitely glad it was on my main route!
My fav cafe when visiting San Diego and a daily Go-to … their “regular” brewed coffee is one of the best anywhere and consistently excellent (I went daily for a week during my stay) and the service was excellent! Loved the avocado toast and loaded up on rugelach. Wanted to try everything on menu. Didn’t mind waiting in line, worth driving 10 min for parking… yes it’s that good.
This coffee is delicious, I was in the city for a couple of days and my two last breakfasts were from here.
The staff is very friendly and fast, they have a great quality coffee as well as great options on their menu.
Tried Spumoni and Caramel gelatos. Both were good but don't try to compare to authentic Italian. Cappuccino and Espresso were nice. Cappuccino mouse had great taste and texture. Nice seating options in front and back. Service was very good.
Coffee and attention was excellent. We had breakfast very simple choice of a panini with light toasted crust but fresh and soft inside. I will definitely come back for coffee and good breakfast in my next visit
Great spot to grab coffee and breakfast. Had the iced Vietnamese and an iced caramel latte. We had the #1 and #2 egg panini sandwiches. Food was hot and delicious. Coffee was strong and really hit the spot after a late night the previous evening.
Managed to stumble across this place walking off a very large (but so fricking delicious) Italian dinner down little Italy. The coffee is divine and the foam artwork was unexpected but a really cool addition to a great cup of coffee. The cafe was super cute, had plenty of seating and the staff was very friendly and helpful. I went after dinner that night AND again the next morning they were that good! Would highly recommend it!
Delicious panini—crisp bread, flavorful filling. Not too expensive. Plenty of seating at 1pm on a weekday. Very friendly staff.
The avocado toast options are just amazing.
The brie and fruit!
The staff were patient and helpful.
Indoor, outdoor, back seating areas.
Excellent coffee and friendly staff.
This is one of the few places that stays open till really late in the neighborhood of little Italy.
A really important thing is that they offer soy milk and other non dairy milk for those with dairy allergy like my boyfriend.
In addition to that they have a container full of treats for dogs next to the sugar station. Excellent for pets.
They sell lavazza coffee
