Java Earth Coffee

Great coffee place in PB! Came here for the first time yesterday post run club and was just planning on grabbing a coffee but then saw these guys eating a breakfast burrito outside that looked really good so decided to try one (I normally don't grab food from coffee shops, and normally don't feel too hungry in the morning but I was feeling it yesterday!). I don't have super high hopes for coffee shop food, and especially not breakfast burritos, but I was very pleasantly surprised! I really enjoyed my burrito and the salsa that came with it was really good. The tortilla was the perfect balance of crispy and chewy. I asked for no bacon and got to choose avo/turkey instead and went with avo.

I also wanted an iced latte and had a hard time deciding which one to get! They have quite a few different latte options and I was thinking of trying the pistachio latte as that looked more unique, but it was a bit more than I felt like paying on top of my burrito (It's over $7) so I went with the basic vanilla honey latte. Was yummy though so can't say I went wrong there! Definitely want to go back and try the pistachio latte next time though

Pros:
- the place is cute, good indoor space for people who also want to use their laptop and work with coffee
- good outdoor space too
- Employees were very nice

Neutral: Cappuccino was ok, not bad, not out of the world, very wet i d say. I dont think i would get a cappuccino there next time i go.

Cons:
- croissant and chocolate/almond croissant were stale, not good at all, one might say taste is subjective, well to an extent. when something is stale it s easy to have a consensus. There is a reason bakeries only sell same day croissant (or discount them by 50% if they have leftover from the day before...)

- coffee bean package has no mention of weight which is very odd, (and also against the FPLA requirement). When I buy a bag of coffee, i d like to know what is the weight of the package... (and when it has been roasted, no indication about that either)

OVerall:
Anyway disappointed by my experience at the Cass St location because I went to the torrey pines one a few times and liked it a lot (including their pastries).

What a cool spot Java Earth Coffee is! I popped in for a quick treat-yo-self visit after having gotten a tattoo right around the corner (which by the way - if you're looking for a great tattoo shop, check out Bay Ink Tattoo and the Yelp review I wrote for it!)

I loved the decor and interior of the space; simple, modern, open, spacious, and minimalist with great daylight. There was also ample seating - both indoor and outdoor. The staff members were incredibly kind and helpful when it came to asking questions about the menu and ordering.

There was a good variety of unique drinks on the menu, to which I ended up ordering the iced pistachio latte. Had I been hungry, I would've also ordered some bites - specifically the lox bagel (What can I say? I'm a sucker for a well-crafted lox bagel! I ought to start a series here on Yelp exploring ALL the places in SD and rating all the lox I eat. Pinning that idea for later!) The pistachio latte was pretty good, however, I definitely want to give the honey vanilla latte a try next time. That's certainly more up my latte-drinking alley.

Overall, I had a 10/10 experience at Java Earth and am looking forward to vistiing again soon and trying more menu items. Highly recommend this spot to locals and travelers alike!

While waiting for our food at Clay Oven next door, we stumbled upon this cute cafe and decided to try it out. The service was decent. I asked about the matcha, and the cashier kindly gave me a sample of their happy matcha. It was fine, but from the color I could tell it wasn't ceremonial grade. I still decided to try their strawberry matcha because I just needed a drink, and it was terrible. The staff claimed it was ceremonial grade matcha, but it clearly wasn't from the color and taste. Ceremonial has a very vibrant green as opposed to dull and dark green, and their oat milk was not great either. I couldn't tell which brand it was, but probably not one of the top brands. The store uses cheap ingredients but still charges very high prices. Won't be coming back.

**TOURIST BAE-CATION REVIEW**

Food /Drinks - sandwiches' are freshly made and delicious. Acai bowls are rich and filling

Service - Order/pay/find a seat. I wish they were a little quicker on the register or have a secondary cashier ready to decrease any line that may form.

Ambiance - Perfect lil café, spacious lots of outside seating perfect to respond to emails/ people watching, or post workout wind down

Overall - While strolling around the neighborhood I needed my morning coffee fix for my hangover and saw all the delicious sandwiches so I indulged. The lox 4/5 - I wish there were more bagel options only plain and everything bagel options. The Mediterranean was absolutely delicious and toast was not to hard, I should have asked for no olives as it did not agree with my hangover

Grand Rising!!!

Cool spot to pick up a quick breakfast and/or espresso or hang out and work in the sun. Plenty of inside and outside seating. Staff is super friendly. They can be bz bz bz at times but if you order via internet, they are very consistent with having your order rdy when you get there.

Cute little shop with fresh flowers for a caffeine pick me up!
Good luck getting parking in the lot, plenty of street parking down the street.

Cute coffee spot next to a beautiful gallery, I had a cup of pumpkin spice latte at a beautiful fall morning, feeling so warm and cozy. I see people are working and studying in the coffee shop, it is definitely a very nice space for that. The atmosphere of this shop is very good. I'll definitely come here to chill out with a coffee if I'm nearby.

Food and Drinks - worth a visit. The coffee was great, they had unique specialty flavors, and the breakfast food was delicious (their pesto is so good). 10/10 would come back here.

Service - the people were so nice and don't mind that I took a little longer to order (at least I couldn't tell if they minded).

Ambiance - very San Diego (chill, go with the flow, open, close proximity to a beach).

Slower coffee place in California. Line every time. Teenagers working do not care. Coffee is good. Not worth wait. Find another spot.
