BEST COFFEE SHOPS IN SAN DIEGO

[@johantrenier1685]

Do a part II. 👍 Fun.

[@Jaycation]

i have a feeling i will!

[@patriciaschmitt6448]

Jay I absolutely love how passionate you are about great food. Your reviews are spot on and you can bet that your subscribers watching these videos are wishing they were by your side helping you eat!! All your San Diego vlogs just confirm why I want to go there on vacation. Cheers!

[@jonnuanez2843]

Caffe Calabria in North Park has the absolute best coffee I've ever had in my life. Also try Cafe Virtuoso in Barrio Logan. Lani Coffee off of 1st and Market is my Hawaiian coffee go-to spot. And glad you mentioned Bird Rock cause I luuuuuuvvvv their coffee. I go to the one in Little Italy.

[@Jaycation]

NP has so many! yeah i definitely have to do a part 2 in the summer sometime

[@Claudita23]

@@Jaycation Yo yeah Caffe Calabria for sure! and it's been there forever, and the other NP coffee shops are new generation lol

[@craund1]

Definitely need a part 2, also could look at multi-roasters they are hard to find in SD

[@Jaycation]

Nice! Part 2 definitely down the line 👍🏾

[@RTZ300]

I just tried Jaunt Coffee Roasters yesterday! That place is legit! I'm actually on a mission to try as many local coffee spots in San Diego and my top 3 so far are Cafe Moto, Better Buzz Coffee, and James Coffee Co. Awesome video! 🤙

[@Jaycation]

Thanks Christian! Jaunt is awesome. James coffee almost made the list but heard theyre doing just fine and wanted to mix in a couple smaller spots!

[@KeithShafer]

Super video. Looking forward to trying these shops. Thumbs up for part two!

[@Jaycation]

Thanks Keith! I hope u like the spots!

[@awesomeadamfrom2099]

[@Jaycation]

Same here! Love Moniker. I have plans for a video there

[@92caligrl]

I love this! I’m always looking for new coffee shops to try. Thanks for the vid.

[@Jaycation]

Awesome! Glad you liked it. Hope u discovered a new spot or two

[@hayeskilla]

[@Jaycation]

Nice! Have a great move to SD!

[@TinyFlav]

Yes, do a part 2! Can’t wait to try some new coffee spots. So funny I was planning to try Jaunt because I had stopped by Caked on Friday late afternoon when Jaunt was closed.

[@Jaycation]

Definitely looks like a part 2 is coming at some point!

[@Wishiwasadrummer]

Cool, now we have 5 new places to go try!! Thanks J!!

[@Jaycation]

[@Jaycation]

[@ginzero]

Production on this one is 🔥🔥🔥

[@Jaycation]

thanks Gino! spent all night and day editing this to form

[@garettsmith6906]

Love the video thank you for this one Jaycation. Part. 2 Copa Vida by Petco Park. I would love you to do either best cookie in SD or bakery shops. Solid list on the coffee shops can’t wait to try some of your suggestions.

[@Jaycation]

Nice suggestions! Copa Vida almost made the cut for the first. Definitely if theres a part 2!

[@garypetermeier3865]

Love the colab with the San Diego breweries. I love breweries and we have a great variety here in Minneapolis so a natural with coffee.

[@Jaycation]

Love those collabs as well!

[@momcation9786]

Always awesome videos! I’d like to try the empanadas at Jaunt in Miramar! Loved it!

[@Jaycation]

the empanadas are the best mi mama!

[@HouseofCid]

Nice! This video is what I’ve been waiting for....can’t wait to go try out those coffee places in SD! I love me a good cafecito. ☕️

[@Jaycation]

Nice! Glad you've been waiting for it! Was happy to film this...

[@Ari-te2hz]

So happy to meet you both!!!! Hope to see you around town soon!!!!!!!

[@DanVsWorld]

Tim really has that barrista vibe to him. Love the compilation videos very well edited

[@Jaycation]

Tim is my wingman in vegas. We’ve had plenty of drunken nights in LV 🤣

[@KeithShafer]

Tried the iced ube latte with 2 expresso shots today at Mostra! Thanks for the tip. Delicious!

[@garypetermeier3865]

OMG That coffee at Portal looks amazing. I LOVE coffee and there is so much great coffee besides the Star%%%%%

[@Jaycation]

It was great! Hope u get to pay them a visit!

[@Tijuastacos]

Another great video Jay. U gotta try Seven Seas Coffee. They are an awesome local company & always helping the community in a lot ways. Keep them videos coming. 👍🏽☕️☕️☕️

[@Jaycation]

ill have to check out Seven Seas thanks for the tip!

[@DivineRotation]

Some solid choices here! There's so many good options in SD. If you get a chance check out some others that are also excellent and could easily be part of this video: Achilles (few locations, downtown area basically), Por Vida in Barrio Logan, James Coffee in Little Italy, Modern Times brewery/cafe, Steady State roasting in Carlsbad, Revolution Roasters in Oceanside. Really there's too many good choices...

[@stefanomagaddino6868]

Yes, a part @ for downtown coffee shops !

[@luisl8851]

Lofty Coffee is a third wave coffee shop that has the best Nitro cold brew I've had in my life. Their espresso drinks are also exceptional - they clean their grinder each day and they use Modbar as their espresso machine. Should definitely give that place a try as well!

[@Jaycation]

Cool! Someone mentioned Lofty to me the other day!

[@mariovilla8756]

That coffee looks so bomb!!!!

[@maritesmacasadia118]

Yay!! So happy you did this . I’ve been looking for a good coffee shop . Thank you !

[@Jaycation]

Thanks for watching, hope u like the spots!

[@kevinmyrick218]

You keep me working hard jay to get to San Diego one day thanks I subscribed

[@Jaycation]

Nice Kevin! Hope u make it down here. Thanks for the support!

[@kyleshannon8645]

I've been exploring craft coffee in san diego over a decade now. Lots of great places! But Coffee Cycle on grand ave. Is hands down the best for consistency and quality. Never been disappointed from a cup there. Great video!

[@Jaycation]

Chris and everyone at coffee cycle are AWESOME people!

[@texadonkey34]

This looks soo good. I like the slow motion video. Awesome job. Keep up the great work. 🤠🌼🍀🌸

[@Jaycation]

thanks kissy cat! I tried to make this video look extra smooth!

[@brandythomas2242]

You should check out Rob's brew point in El Cajon. Great Video I can't wait to try these places!!!

[@Jaycation]

Thanks! Ill list Robs for when i do an el cajon vid!

[@ckfderobio]

Great video brother. If you ever down south, try Donny’s Cafe and Pavaraga both in Bonita. 🤙🏽

[@Jaycation]

Thanks for the recs!

[@musiclover6585]

My favorite coffee shop in SD is Garden Coffee! 🪴💚 it’s so beautiful and has the friendliest baristas. I also love their thrift shop next door.

[@Jaycation]

Nice! Ill have to check it out. Seems like an awesome place!

[@applefortynine8207]

Love this! Ryan Brothers from Logan Heights and (not a Mom and Pop business) Better Buzz Coffee at Hill Crest are my favorite places

[@Jaycation]

thanks for the recs! Havent heard of Ryan Bros... will have to check it!

[@daniellalovesmakeup2014]

Yes better buzz!!! 🤤

[@doctorzelda756]

this is amazing jay!! do you think you'll ever do a video of eats in LA? love ur content!

[@Jaycation]

Thank you! Most definitely! Im actually planning a day in LA soon.

[@nathanlowther9699]

Kings Craft in Poway is super super good! Their chai lattes are the best! We need a part 2, but maybe focused on Northern San Diego!

[@Jaycation]

Thanks for mentioning Kings Craft! Ill keep it in mind for sure

[@pianomarksman]

Ayyy, Love Mostra Coffee! Also, if there's a part two, definitely check out Sleeping Tiger Coffees, Steady State Coffee, Lofty Coffee, and Ironsmith Coffee. They're all in North County SD in the Carlsbad/Encinitas area. Great stuff!

[@Jaycation]

Love Mostra! Thanks for these recs! Part II coming sometime in the near future!

[@katyahm7580]

Ironsmith for sure! Love their honey flat white.

[@eddiehernandez1775]

Part 2 would be awesome !!! We love Copa Vida and Forum.

[@Digangco]

Jaunt is 100% my favorite one. Their empanadas are delicious as well.

[@Jaycation]

Love Jaunt and their Empanadas! So amazing!

[@thealchemist3879]

Jaunt gets their empanadas from Empanada Kitchen. This place has two locations, one in North Park and one in downtown. Great empanadas!

[@starl.2775]

I'm living for more SD content!

[@Jaycation]

More SD content to come!

[@aguywpassion669]

I’m not sure if anyone has heard of it, but I LOVE Local Krave! I used to live by the Point Lona location. Hazelnut Kraveman, I think you gotta try it out at least

[@oliviazatarain4211]

yeah part 2 please!

[@Jaycation]

Definitely at some point!

[@thesoundofviolencepodcast]

Coffee Cycle is right down the street from me I'm definitely going to check them out!

[@Jaycation]

Nice! Hope u like it!

[@Ahardee]

I can't wait to try your recommendations!!

[@Jaycation]

Hope u like them! 🤙🏼

[@adrieanaowens1510]

Please try Coffee Corner in Santee and Better Buzz with multiple locations!

[@DiJourne]

Good to see local coffee places there, besides Starbucks. And yeah, you should definitely do a part 2 for this video.

[@Jaycation]

Part 2 coming sometime in the summer! 😀

[@DiJourne]

@@Jaycation yippee!! 😄👍🏾

[@blackbaseballfield1]

Trident coffee in I.B is phenomenal if you like cold brew

[@Jaycation]

cold brew is cool! IB is awesome, ill have to check it out

[@ethanphung6964]

home coffee is definitely one to check out, such a hole in the wall location!

[@Jaycation]

Thanks for the rec Ethan!

[@amyhedrick4395]

Looks tasty!

[@Double2KK]

Have you checked out Cafe Adesso in Alpine where you can get the #44 Joe Musgrove or Cafe Mudd? (Mark Grant)

[@Jaycation]

I literally finished filming this video right before the no hitter... i almost went on saturday but said ill just feature them in part 2! haha

[@ImTheDudeMan471]

Cafe Adesso is kinda the place to go right now if you are a local and following what's going on in San Diego.

[@Jaycation]

ohh yeah you got that right! Shout out to the Musgrove Family! Funny i finished filming this video the DAY he threw the No Hitter. You best believe he'll be in Part II!

[@aguculture]

Cool list but there are more amazing coffee spots, James, Dark Horse, Public Square in La Mesa, Holsem in North Park, Pappalecco, Coffee & Tea Collective, Scrimshaw Coffee, Twiggs, etc… Please do a part two….

[@victorrodriguez6608]

No Café Calabria in North Park?! Yeah, you might need a part 2 vid. They have the best tasting coffee I have ever tried. Real coffee too! Not a honey ginger lavender orange blossom whatever type drink. Perhaps that’s why it’s not included? 😜 That also have amazing real Italian style stone oven pizza!

[@imbanditspal]

Really liked this episode. If you do a part 2, you ought to go south of downtown. And to continue with beverages, do one on Boba.

[@Jaycation]

Thanks! I love boba too

[@karenmadrigal3555]

Part 2 yes!! Visit Por Vida ☕️

[@Realworldnews247]

Nice video man love the channel!

[@Jaycation]

Thanks Mike! Shout out to u!

[@brittat3533]

LOVE COFFEE...DEF heading to ALL these places! Need a part 2 ...I'm just saying =)

[@Jaycation]

NICE! Yes gotta check them all out... part 2 in the works!

[@mlenz2553]

I've been to every Cafe here except for Jaunt, and I'll be going there for sure now. They are all truely great coffee shops. The only ones I'd recommend for part two😉 is Cafe Calabria and my neighborhood shop BayPark Coffee.

[@Jaycation]

Nice hope u get to try Jaunt!

[@the86life43]

Wow. Surprised Virtuoso isnt on here or Cafe Moto.

[@Jaycation]

Can only do so many. Def will take into acct in the next one

[@mireyarodriguez4755]

Bird Rock that is going to be my new place muah 💋💋

[@Jaycation]

Nice! Glad u found a new spot!

[@SwagMaster824]

Does the Mostra at 4s Ranch still sell those longanisa sandwiches ? I really want to go out and try the place but I probably won’t go all the way to Rancho Bernardo unless they have them available there still lol

[@monica-NJ-123]

Thank you so much , all these shops looked great , esp like the dog friendly places , please do more of dog friendly xoxo

[@Jaycation]

Hi Monica! Thanks, i will definitely be more aware of when im at a dog friendly place and let people know. 👍🏾

[@chrisgraham5036]

Jay, love your channel...keep up the great work! I have to give a shout out to my local, Communal Coffee in North Park and South Park/Burlingame. Check them out when can; the sweet mint cold brew is amazing!

[@Jaycation]

Hi Chris! Communal is on my list... want to cover it when i do south park

[@mspinguen]

Part 2 has to have Cafe Moto Not only is their coffee bomb but their tea as well. The earl grey is hands down the best earl grey I have ever had.

[@Jaycation]

Nice! Quite a few people have recommended Cafe Moto. Will check it out!

[@dannywassifersoundstornero3682]

Cafe Moto in Barrio Logan. Go Deh!

[@Jaycation]

FA SHO! Thanks Danny!

[@19Sd04]

I’m a cold brew guy and by far Cafe moto has the best cold brew

[@bamfxitsxcaseyy]

You should go to Dark Horse! they have a few locations, but i always hit up the North Park one. If you go on the earlier side - get their vegan doughnuts they are SO good and the flavors change everyday

[@Jaycation]

Nice ive gotten a couple recs for Dark Horse! Thanks

[@AmigoKandu]

Jennings House on Rosecrans in Point Loma Old California Coffee & Eatery, San Marcos

[@Jaycation]

Thanks for the rec!

[@tonycasarrubia1394]

You can't forget James Coffee on India Street when considering the best in SD.

[@Jaycation]

almost made the cut. but they're doing well as it is. Def will be in part 2

[@katyahm7580]

Love that location!

[@saintrumi]

Been watching your videos a bunch as I’m considering moving to SD homie. If you want some lofi beats for your videos, I’ve got a whole catalog for you!

I guess a well pulled and perfectly timed espresso doesn't factor in with the kids anymore. Nothing like that explosion of flavors and subtleties on the tongue....might take only a few seconds to drink but among espresso friends can elicit hours long conversations about everything. I'm old skool that way.

[@djstephanysays9708]

Most of these are in the burbs. The only exception would be Portal. Heartworks in Mission Hills is better than all of these.
