This coffee shop is absolutely delightful! The atmosphere is lovely, creating a warm and inviting space to relax. The staff members are incredibly kind and friendly, making the entire experience even more enjoyable. I had a sizable order, but the staff handled it flawlessly, ensuring everything was taken care of with finesse. Not only did everyone adore their scrumptious breakfast sandwiches, but the cold and hot drinks were also a hit, satisfying our taste buds perfectly. It was truly a wonderful experience for all.

The most consistent and friendly coffee (& Tea!) shop in the Vista. Great atmosphere and central location. The staff have always been incredibly friendly, warm, and welcoming. The owner and staff have even made it a point to remember and address a lot of customers by name as they walk in, myself included. I look forward to every order and interaction. When I’m craving a cappuccino, this is the place I think of.

Great place to study, I got the dreamy cold brew (cost $4.50) and bagel ($2). The service was quick despite how busy it was. I can’t wait to try more of their coffees. Highly recommend trying out!

Stopped in here from out of town and got the house blend and a Mocha Ice Dragon. House blend black coffee is good and smooth. mocha Ice Dragon is smooth and nothing too strong. Great atmosphere and plenty of room for meeting up with others.

First time visiting Sweetwaters. Stopped in to get my standard, quad espresso with a splash of steamed cream. It sounds simple enough, but if the espresso is not extracted properly, there’s nothing to hide it unless the barista uses too much cream, then it’s a capachino,,, not what I want.

It’s a very interesting experience only minutes away from the Uni. I highly recommend getting the Jade Matcha as there are not many places that offer it. The food is very good and filling. I didn’t get to try the pastries, but they looked good, too. The staff and manager seemed very knowledgeable and were very helpful with picking out things that suited my tastes. They also allowed my girlfriend to try a sample of their coffee blends.

Pleasant service and tasty treats. I ordered the Strawberry lemonade freeze with a zucchini bread. The drink wasn’t too sweet (yay) and had fresh strawberries. The bread was moist and full of flavor.

I was in town for a conference and this place was close by. The girls Autumn and Audrey were so friendly and helpful. One of the best Mocha Lattes I’ve had. Not too sweet, just the right amount of flavor. Very attentive when making the drinks. Even asked about the ice amount for an iced latte. They weren’t very busy however.

Visited this location yesterday afternoon looking for a bite to eat and a coffee. This is a nice modern style decor place . It is bigger than your average coffee shop. Love the atmosphere. Lots of college students. Parking is a bit difficult but we found one meter parking space across the street. I had a ham and cheese bagel sandwich that was really good. It was nicely toasted. My wife had a nice coffee drink. Which by the way, they have a great coffee drink selection. I also had a latte. The coffee seems to be on the light side. I added honey and cinnamon to it. It was just ok. However, the manager noticed that I didn’t finish my coffee so he offered me a shot of their premium coffee and it was so much better. I have to say the attention to detail by the manager was incredible. He even took a picture of my wife and I.
