"Clayton's Coffee Shop, located in Coronado, CA, is a casual coffee shop and diner that serves up a variety of caffeinated beverages and an assortment of tasty eats. Fido is welcome to join you at outdoor tables after you order from their pet-friendly walk-up window. (Treats are even available for your pup!) Try a Mexican Mocha or a Chai Tea Latte while savoring a fresh donut or slice of homemade Granny Smith apple pie."

"Start your morning off at one of the oldest establishments on the Island. Clayton’s features the classic diner foods like saucer-sized pancakes, biscuits and gravy and milkshakes (yes for breakfast). It is one of my favorite places to go when I visit Coronado because it brings back childhood memories and you get the old school vibes with the on-table jukeboxes."

"Of all the La Jolla coffee shops, Brick & Bell is the first to open each morning, warming to life well before the crack of dawn as expert bakers are extracting scrumptious scones from their glowing ovens by 4:00 am. This tiny brick house near the seashore is a beloved local hangout due to its posh coffee bar, homey outdoor patio, and welcoming vibes. Beyond legendary mochas, they also offer fresh juices, fruit smoothies, Italian soda, and a breakfast menu riddled with mouthwatering sandwiches, but most importantly, do not leave before getting your hands on a baked goody!"

"This super cute one-story house has been revamped into a quaint coffee shop with lots of great choices for food and coffee. But what keeps me coming back here is their outdoor seating that’s sheltered from the street by plants and trees and feels like sitting in the coziest backyard ever. Seriously, I think if inner peace were a place, this is what it would look like."

"Often called (informally of course), “the best coffee in North County,” Lofty’s three locations in Encinitas and Solana Beach mean you might find one without the lines. Its original location near Moonlight Beach is a local cafe and coffee roasting spot with specialty coffee and artisanal food decorated in industrial chic. A locally owned and operated cafe, Lofty roasts its own coffee beans."

"Lofty Coffee designed this cafe to take full advantage of the temperate San Diego weather with a wide-open and fluid, indoor to outdoor patio vibe. Nestled on a sun-kissed corner of Little Italy, there’s no better way to enjoy the elements with your cup of joe. Tagged with:Coffee, Coffee Shops, San Diego, Top 10"

"This new dessert joint offers handmade French pastries, amazing macarons, and some to-die-for truffles. Be sure to visit, and try their coconut salted caramel macarons as well as the creme brulee and chocolate truffles!"

"North Park is without a doubt a great neighborhood to get a decent cup of coffee, and Young Hickory blends into that environment perfectly. However, this is a San Diego coffee shop with a twist: apart from great coffee, they also serve (more than 30) craft beers here!. As a matter of fact, even some breweries from Europe are represented in the shop, too."

"Young Hickory is a hipster café and espresso bar offering sandwiches, salads and a wide selection of craft canned beers. Choose from a selection of flavored hot teas and iced teas. Also, on the menu is drip coffees, Just a Shot, Americano, Hammerhead, Cappuccino, Latte, Mexican Mocha, Chai Latte, Iced Coffee."

"This makes this coffee shop a great place for hanging out, working, and studying, which is great!. Besides that, their coffees are very delicious. They roast the coffee themselves, which means the flavors you find here are unique!"

"Located between Asian Passage and Panda Canyon, Hua Mei Café offers a variety of Asian favorites such as Orange Chicken, Teriyaki Chicken, and Peppered Beef Teriyaki."

"Trendsetters and tastemakers have flocked to Miso Harney Sushi since the day it opened without slowing down. The ultra-cool vibe inside is set off by the rich red walls and marble counter tops.[Learn more]"

"Harney Sushi’s funky, experimental vibe puts it at the top of any list of best sushi in San Deigo. The creative, exciting menu features some riffs on classic favorites and new takes on what sushi can be."

"A post shared by North Park Main Street (@northparkmainstreet). Punchy East Coast flavors meet sunny San Diego in this casual, family-oriented eatery in North Park. Tucked in a storefront in the Lynhurst building, with outdoor seating and charming gingham checkered tables inside, even the atmosphere of Pete’s has an East Coast beachy feel."

"The extensive menu covers all the bases including clam chowder and lobster rolls to the whole range of fried seafoods such as fish, lobster, shrimp, oysters and even Ipswich clams. Delivery and takeout is available as well as outdoor seating."

"Herb & Eatery is the chilled-out café version of its popular, upscale sister restaurant, Herb & Wood. The menu features scrumptious pastries, savory breakfasts, fresh salads, and gourmet sandwiches. The carrot cake is gorgeous and the café is flooded with bright, natural sunlight - perfect for photographing your breakfast flat-lay!"

"This popular food truck can be found all over San Diego, serving up traditional Hawaiian shaved ice with a wide array of syrup flavors. Fan favorites include Wild Watermelon, Blue Raspberry and Tiger’s Blood. The best part is that the syrups are customer-accessible so you can use as much or as little as you want in any combination."
