"My family and I came down to Pacific Beach last year and we absolutely loved this place and came every morning for coffee. The cafe was welcoming and warm, and the baristas were upbeat and friendly! There also was a gift/clothing shop attached to the coffee house that gave the cafe more personality and charm! This year, it seems that warm and welcoming feeling has changed under new ownership. The gift/clothing shop is now gone which has left the cafe completey bare with no personality. The attached room is now a bar, however, everything was packed away, so we didn't get to try it. The baristas looked burned out and unhappy. No smiles or uplifting attitudes. We agreed that the place felt cold and unwelcoming and we felt no desire to return for the remainder of our vacation."
