San Diego
These are my fave finds over the years (many years) I've lived in San Diego
All dogs welcome! I think I put the Vietnamese on the menu! I used to order it so frequently, even had to teach some of the baristas how to make it way back many years ago. I can tell you - theirs is the best in town! They actually make each one ...
Clairemont Coffee
The name says it all. Lovely little coffee cart - even more lovely owners. I used to stop here all the time- to the point my baby said coffee if we drove in that direction. But I moved and hadn't been here in a long time. And I drove up and they rem...
GOLD SOUL COFFEE
Perfect place to grab a coffee and a walk around the bay. Hammerhead, Vietnamese, and any breakfast sandwich. Grab it and take a walk along the bay.
Crown Point Coffee
Dirty Chai Latte. In some northern parts this might be called a dirty hippie. It's espresso in a chai latte. And Arely's has the best in town! Again- fresh and real beats mix every time. I have struggled to find a place that doesn't just use some Ch...
Arely’s French Bakery Cafe
Don't forget the treats! I know, I know. It's supposed to be a coffee list! But just look at these treats! You have to try one. I am a big fan of their palmiers and chocolate croissants. But you have a large pastry case of options here- something...
Arely French Bakery Cafe
Best Drink Ever! I'll admit I haven't been here in years, but there was a time, back when this was a one location coffee shop when I did really enjoy the Best Drink Ever. I'd say everyone should at least try it once.
Better Buzz Coffee
Bishop, CA
Where I first met and fell in love with a dirty hippie. The drink - it's a drink.
This cute, cool little coffee shop is where I first tried a dirty chai latte (named a dirty hippie here) and fell in love! Love the coffee, chill vibe, and small- town close-knit feel you get here! There's no “outsiders unwelcome” kind of vibes here - super friendly.
Looney Bean
Twentynine Palms
If you're in Joshua Tree, make sure you visit the Twentynine Palms farmers market on Saturday (at the east end visitor center for Joshua Tree National Park) and check out the coffee!
A firefighter husband and nurse wife team- bringing you strong, delicious coffee. Find the 29 Palms farmer's market on Saturdays at Freedom Plaza.
Yahweh Coffee at 29 Palms Farmers Market
Don't be fooled by how delicious these coffees look - they can be found at the Acai Bowl booth at the farmers market. And you will definitely want your coffee ICED if you're here in the summer!
29 Palms Certified Farmers Market
Santa Cruz/Ben Lomond
The locals would probably kill me for calling these two the same area - but that's just what I did!
Such a cute small mountain town vibe, and nice outdoor area to enjoy and people watch.
Okay- me and my chai- of course my rec is the mocha chai. Espresso, chai spice AND chocolate. Yum!
Coffee In Ben Lomond | Coffee Nine | Ben Lomond
Super cute little coffee spot. But oh my! You do have to try the bagels. I know - it's a coffee list, but seriously - try the bagels!
It's me with creating my own drink again- but that's probably how a dirty hippie was born. The drink! So at fire...
