"Zumbar’s two locations are rather different. One sits in the middle of the tech hub of Sorrento Valley while the other, in Cardiff, has ocean views and a breezy, picnic-perfect park around the corner. The longtime company focuses on quality, from using reputable brokers to roasting in small batches while employing green sustainable practices They also have a line of coffee beers in a fun collab with New English Brewing." - Helen I.

"Zumbar’s two locations are rather different. The one between the Torrey Pines research mesa and the tech hub of Sorrento Valley draws on brainiacs from both sides of Interstate 5. The other, in Cardiff, has ocean views and a breezy, picnic-perfect park around the corner. Zumbar’s focus on quality — from using reputable brokers to small-batch roasting to the final assembled drink with perfectly pulled ristretto shots — makes every sip so satisfying." - Roxana Popescu

Small coffee shop with a great selection of coffees. They don't do drip in the traditional sense though. Instead, they French press a button of coffee and then keep it in a giant insulated carafe to pour on demand. The coffee I got was pretty good. Not too acidic.

Great vibe, latte art is made beautifully! The hummingbird coffee beans is great for espresso with milk!

The pros : very good mocha latte. Nicely made drink. Great location with an ocean view. Cons: the staff are consistently unsmiling and lacking any personality, the drinks only come in one size— not big enough. So, if you are in the area and want a nice ocean view with your great drink, ( that will leave you wanting more) , and you are in a non communicative mood ~ this is your place.

Great quality coffee and terrific blends. Their cold brew is also fantastic. Hummingbird and El Munro blends are my favorites so I use them at home in my espresso machine too! Do yourself a favor and stop by for some good coffee. I recommend walking over as the parking is very limited in front of the shop.

I loved around here for a couple of years and would come often, not because of convenience, but because the coffee drinks were consistently great. Staff here is pretty awesome, friendly, and even made effort to get to know you if you come here often. They do not have a "rewards program" but every once in a while, they'll give a free drink or two. Nice beach views. Highly recommend this spot for the coffee and welcoming environment.

I’m gonna give it 5 stars for the almond milk latte. Still a strong coffee flavor but so smooth and creamy with a great portion of almond milk. I also tried the double espresso and would give it 4 stars. Efficient service. I’ll definitely come back for the latte. Also cute little shop. Not much seating indoors if you are looking for that.

Excellent coffee, but not very friendly. Come on people... service is just as important as the product that you sell!

Love this local coffee shop! Great setup for keeping customers and employees safe. Easy walk from the beach in Cardiff. Almond croissants do not hold back on the almond paste and the flat white was super creamy.
