"Great coffee shop in Escondido. We have tried two seasonal drinks - pumpkin latte and pumpkin cookie butter cold brew. The coffee isn't bitter or overly acidic. The flavorings tasted great and were not overly sweet. The staff is very friendly, plenty of indoor seating, and parking in the area is pretty easy. We will definitely be coming back to check out more seasonal drinks."

"I love the vibes and atmosphere. I got here a few minutes after opening which was good because it gets busy though it seems the line moves fast. We got two real pumpkin spiced lattes one hot and one cold. The cold one wasn’t great at first until we gave it a good stir. The hot was our personal fav. I didn’t like the pumpkin bagels as much maybe if they were hotter?? I would only get one bagel and pumpkin next time seeing as the price tag was hefty. Update it’s 1 hours after opening on Saturday and the lines out the door!!! Sign of good coffee in my experience."

"Great lil spot!! Cutest lil pumpkin served with your PSL🎃 and pumpkin bagel for the WIN! Staff and service top notch! First time here and I will definitely return, introducing more friends to this spot🧡"

"I drove all the way from Temecula to try S3 Coffee Shop in Escondido after finding this hidden gem on TikTok and I’m so glad I did! The creativity behind their drinks and food, plus how delicious everything was, made the drive totally worth it. It was pretty busy when I arrived, but I was happy to find a seat while waiting for my pumpkin bagel and pumpkin drink. Both were amazing! Definitely planning to come back and try more."

"To name a coffee shop "S3 Coffee" may appear too unique, but this is a wonderful place for a coffee date- to smell, sip, and savor. The baristas were kind and quick. There was a slight hiccup with the order, and the barista went beyond expectation to solve the issue. The ambience is bright and cheerful. The golden chairs add to the character of the store. The next time you are in Escondido take a moment to smell, sip, and savor. I'm looking forward to enjoying another cup of coffee at S3 Coffee ☕"
