About

This plant-filled Pacific Beach café pairs coffee and matcha drinks with breakfast, sandwiches, salads, grain bowls, and smoothies; HappyCow lists a vegan sandwich, salads, chia pudding, and plant-milk alternatives. Indoor and outdoor seating, an open wall used as a seating area, and laptop-friendly tables make it a popular place to linger, though reviewers say tables can be hard to find and prices run high.
