"This North County spot has an easy-going vibe where you’ll find a mix of patrons — newspaper readers parked at tables, busy families, people on the go — united by their love of coffee. Its fan base exists for good reason: this roaster cultivates long-term relationships with coffee growers and then takes that raw material and transforms it into something outstanding. The broad drink menu has something for everyone, from classic drinks to a long list of zany mochas." - Helen I. Hwang
