"Definitely a hole-in-the-wall type of shop. The counter area looks unfinished. Maybe if they put some art or a mural on the walls, it would help? They sell merch, which was a bit of a surprise given how tiny they are. Looks like a homemade set up, but the barista was very friendly, and the coffee was excellent."

"Such good matcha here! The team takes great care in creating your drink and it compares to some of the matcha I had in Japan. Def a top matcha recommendation in SD, not too milky and bright flavor!"

"There wasn't much proactive customer service or charm present, but the coffee was good. This is my second time stopping by for Cortado. As Hane Sushi customers, we were hoping to find coffee after our sushi meal. However, there's a hint of pretentiousness in the atmosphere. I'm still rooting for this small shop, as we understand its difficult to run a business in today's era. Cheers!"

"Great small coffee shop just outside Balboa Park. The drinks are sweetened with honey rather than sugar so you can enjoy a guilt free sweet beverage. Super small inside with just a couple small tables with additional seating outside. Well worth the visit."

"Excellent vibes, very knowledgeable and personable staff. If I was local this would be exactly where I would want to spend time. Great pastries and coffee to boot."
