"Krakatoa Coffee House, a landmark in Golden Hill for the last 20 years, is winding down and will be closing at the end of the month. It was conceived more than two decades ago, when during their hallowed days running the Turf Club, owners Sam Chammas, Tim Mays, and Joe Austin took what was a rundown craftsman house and turned it into cafe and sandwich shop that, as Mays rightly says, “became a beloved meeting place for so many in the community”." - Candice Woo

Outdoor dining is spacious, open and nowhere near feeling cramped; variety of food selection is great and price is fair. Definitely come here to grab a bite and seat and catch up on any work. Outlets are abundant to power your laptop or phone. Only drawback is the super limited parking, so getting early would be the best bet. Deck is open after hours!

This is no subway sandwiches. The sandwiches offer healthy and filling options for the food conscious. Vegetarian and meat options to choose from. Bread makes or break sandwiches and this place serves you quality breads from whole grain options to more traditional breads. Sandwiches come with a side of potato salad but I always swap it out for fresh fruit without a surge charge. They are also a café with lots of coffee options and loose leaf teas and lattes. It’s a casual spot for locals.

Epic hip place! Really friendly baristas and staff, cool interior, and most importantly, delicious coffee and food! We had the Colima and the chichón sandwiches, both delicious and huge portions. The cold brew and espresso were delicious, as was the Swedish coffee.

We found Krakatoa by accident because it was within walking distance of our Airbnb, but if we make it back to San Diego, we'll definitely be back here. Our breakfasts were enormous and incredibly delicious. The volcanic theme was very cute, and our cashier was gracious with our indecisiveness. I wish we lived closer so we could go more often!!

Food was good, orange juice is fressed squeezed. Had the krak coffee, good cold brew coffee. Their krak cookie is also super delicious. This place is what i would call hipster, but everyone was nice and the food and drinks were worth it.

The outside patio is wonderful and almost transports you away from a busy 25th street to a small oasis. The food is good and the coffee is great. Lucky to live close enough that I can walk my furballs over and enjoy a nice breakfast on occasion.

Cute coffeehouse with a beautiful outdoor patio. Hippie food, cheap cocktails, and some very generous smoothie. Definitely reflects the vibe of San Diego!

I love the lattes at this cute coffee house in the area of Golden Hills San Diego. Perfect spot to work on school projects and drink a delicious latte. Must try!
