Their roasts are exceptional. We went their twice while on a trip to San Diego. Very lively vibe and decor. Baristas are friendly. They are using ingredients like dark chocolate, organic honey etc in their special lattes, which compliments the shot of espresso. I tried cortado with a shot of dark chocolate, wasn’t sure what kinda of sweetener shot to add and the barista helped me out. Next time we went with laptops and their Wi-Fi is good for working too. They have small bites of food too. They had free samples of their new cold brew while we were there, I wish they open a location in nor cal soon! PS: they have won roaster of the year 2020, US roaster of the year 2022 awards 🙌🏽

Driving up the 15 from SD to Temecula, I needed a strong coffee and not from that chain place with the green straws. That’s too easy, no bleh. So, I searched on Yelp for something en route and this spot popped up. The directions took me thru the wrong parking lot but I eventually found this caffeination oasis….and got VIP parking right in front. The vibe was old world meets modern industrial. I felt like I could stay there and hang out all day, or grab a quick cup and jet if I was in a rush. I am here for a place like this that gives me both! They have a bunch of house made syrups and milks which was super fun. My kiddos grabbed the no-caffeine drinks, Ube Wan-Kanobi & The Yeti. They were sweet and cold, great light flavors that my kiddos loved! I was here for the caffeine, so I grabbed the Honey Lavender Latte, oat milk on ice. My first sip put me into a trance. Most times with a drink like this, especially over ice, you can’t taste the coffee/espresso, but this drink…..wOW!! I understand why the owner/barista was award winning!! The sharp flavor of the dark liquor cut thru the honey and lavender and creamy milk to bring me a feeling of a pinky cup of warm, strong espresso after a meal. I was transported to Italy for about 30 seconds before I was hit back to reality by the light lavender spell that felt like it was directly from the local fields. This coffee spot is top of my list. Tucked back in a Home Depot parking lot, it is a destination. One you can bet you will find me at again! Pro Tip: have your friends sit in the booth and take a photo while you pose in the mirror, in the photo with them!

Got an iced Ube Latte with decaf espresso and oat milk. 10/10 delicious and would drink again. The espresso shot was nice and strong. Flavor was on point and not too sweet (best asian compliment ever). A bit on the pricier side, but I would love to come back and try the bibingka and chocobanana.

Great coffees and maybe I’m biased cause I love the Filipino flavors. I tried the Ube latte which is purple yam flavor coffee, very well made cappuccino. Great indoor decor and very chilled staff.
