I just tried this place with friend and loved everything about it. The ambiance, the coffee, and the service. Evan and Marissa are so nice and welcoming and are very passionate about their customers/business. I tried the OBSL iced and it was perfect. My friend got the Iced Vanilla Latte and she loved her drink as well. It was well crafted and yummy. They only had oat milk which is perfect as I'm lactose intolerant.
Please come and support them!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - May 18, 2024
Love this little local coffee shop and it's an added bonus for me that's it's on the same street that I live on.
Owned by a husband and wife, it's got a great story of why they opened up this place.
Inside it's tiny, probably space for about 4 people. However there is a larger outdoor patio. Great place to work if you're not on calls as planes fly overhead.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Braydon M.San Diego, CA643102Feb 2, 2024
The nicest two owners. Love the story of the Coffee Drop. Also, the coffee itself was fire. Order the special with a little orange zest in it.
Awesome job you two. Keep up the good work and continue growing your business. Clearly people love you!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Ivan M.San Diego, CA571613May 18, 2024
My personal Favorite in SD! Evan and Marissa, Best owners/Baristas make the best tasting craft coffee out there! Cappuccino, Espresso Tonic and Mexican Mocha are my personal favorites!
If you know coffee and appreciate craft, this is a definite must try!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Taylor M.Canyon Country, CA371May 18, 2024
Stopped by a coffee shop with HORRIBLE service so I ended up leaving and driving down the road to find The Coffee Drop! Thank goodness for that terrible service at the first place because I was able to discover a drink I had never come across before AND great service. I had the iced Orange Brown Sugar Latte. The owners of the shop themselves are ringing you up and making your drinks so you know they're putting in more effort to be great. They WILL sell you on the OBSL. It's got good flavor with some citrus notes in the after taste. The shop itself is tiny but it started to fill up with regulars who were big advocates for the coffee! If the owners keep up the friendly service and care they put into their lattes, they'll be around for a long time. :) See ya next time, Coffee Drop!

The best Mexican mocha I've ever had. Good space for studying! Great coffee and amazing service from the owners. 10/10 coffee spot!

The Coffee Drop opened up a few weeks ago and it will be a locals favorite! The owners are welcoming and friendly.
Please keep in mind this location is oat-milk based, (you can request for an alternative milk).
The menu is pretty simple.
They offer iced/hot drinks and pastries.
My go to order is the iced OBSL (Orange brown sugar latte).
I am not a fan of very sweet drinks and they have mastered the perfect balance here.
The espresso to syrup ratio is great + oat milk.
I highly recommend the OBSL if you want something unique, tasty, and delicious.
I have yet to try other drinks here, so I am basing this review off 1 specific drink I've ordered a few times + service/atmosphere.Helpful 0Thanks 1Love this 0Oh no 0 - Amy L.Glendale, CA2731410Feb 22, 2024
My pup, husband, and I absolutely love coming to a the Coffee Drop! So much so that it's a part of our daily routine, and we visit almost every day. Marissa and Evan have a deep passion for coffee, and it shows in their product. The coffee is absolutely delicious! Service is always stellar, as Marissa and Evan make it a point to know their customers. The shop has a welcoming ambiance that's supported by the way Marissa and Evan have cultivated a community here.

This coffee spot makes excellent drinks and has a friendly atmosphere!
It is located right next to the barbershop with a small parking lot and street parking.
We got the OBSL and Vanilla Iced Latte with Oatly milk. These drinks were both made very well - subtle flavors with the right amount of sweetness.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Apr 3, 2023
This place is such a GEM! The owners are the kindest, welcoming and most passionate people. The kind of business you love to support. My husband and I stopped by in the afternoon, he wanted a pick-me-up and I can't drink caffeine after 12pm so I wasn't expecting to get anything for myself. The owner welcomed us, explained their process and told me they had decaf. So of course I then had to try it!
We both went with the signature iced OBSL with oat milk, which is an orange brown sugar latte. The house made syrup was the perfect flavor, not too overpowering or sweet. You could taste the smoothness of the espresso, no bitterness to be found. They offer some delicious looking pastries from Split who I love, so I'll have to get those next time. They're in the process of opening up a brick and mortar which is so awesome, as I'll definitely be frequenting them.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 3Oh no 0
