Today was my first visit here, and I’m so glad I came! Hannah, the sweetest young lady, took my order with a big smile. I went for the Caramel Black Salt Latte, and let me tell you, it did not disappoint (I couldn't resist taking a sip before snapping a pic!). I also picked up some coffee beans, and I’m super excited to give them a try! pic!). I also picked up some coffee beans, and I’m super excited to try them!

Super cute hidden gem. From the moment we got our food and sat down. The line and the crowd just did not stop for a Saturday morning. I love the beef empanada and my Hazelnut Vanilla Latte. It is so pretty with the latte art that I didn't even want to drink it. The only empanada that I won't recommend is the ham and cheese, it looks very hollow in there compared to the beef one.

I had a great experience at Jaunt. Atmosphere is lively and busy, with many students working away on their macbooks. Their latte is always good, with the right amount of espresso and sweetness. Almond croissant was good too but nothing unique. I come back for that consistently good first sip!

Jaunt Coffee is a great find in an unexpected spot. It’s located in a warehouse strip mall which was interesting. Inside, it’s cozy and welcoming, and they have a nice outdoor seating area too. It’s perfect if you want to bring your dog and enjoy some fresh air while having coffee. The coffee is really good, and the place has a relaxed, friendly feel. Just be aware that parking is limited, and we had to circle around a bit to find a spot. Definitely worth checking out if you’re in San Diego!

You have spoiled me for all other Chai lattes, Jaunt! Friendly & knowledgeable baristas make the top notch drinks at this craft coffee cafe shine. I limit myself to one jaunt a week - but I’m already counting the days...

Jaunt Coffee Roasters is truly the perfect neighborhood coffee shop and breakfast stop. It’s no surprise that the line stretches long on both weekday and weekend mornings—this spot has built quite a following. Their coffee selection stands out, offering unique flavors like hazelnut, vanilla, and lavender alongside excellent traditional options like lattes and macchiatos. Coffee enthusiasts will also appreciate their selection of beans and merchandise available for purchase. The food is another highlight, with a menu featuring croissants, burritos, and, most impressively, empanadas—a rare and delightful find for a breakfast spot in the area. Options like beef, chicken, ham, and cheese are popular, and the empanadas are kept hot and crispy in the oven, ensuring they’re always fresh and satisfying. The staff here are exceptional, going above and beyond to deliver great service. When I accidentally spilled my drink, they quickly cleaned up and even remade it for me—service like this makes all the difference. Jaunt also offers creative seasonal drinks throughout the year. The summer Ube Cream Cold Brew is a refreshing treat, while the winter Bunny Kitty Cold Brew, topped with matcha foam and sprinkles, is a fun and festive twist. During the holidays, the store is beautifully decorated with themed lights, Santa’s sleigh, and even a Santa mailbox, adding a warm and cheerful touch to the experience. The spot has an outside dining area which is dog-friendly. It's quite common to see the cute puppies at the area. With its excellent coffee, delicious food, and welcoming atmosphere, Jaunt Coffee Roasters is a neighborhood gem that’s worth the wait every time.

A favorite. Sadly, it’s not one that I visit very often as it’s not within my normal stomping grounds. Love the simple, clean, inviting layout and decor. They get crazy busy, but the staff is quick at filling orders and they remain friendly throughout the rush. Ordered their spiced cold brew, lavender latte and matcha. The cold brew was strong, but not bitter. The latte didn’t taste like soap which sometimes happens with lavender flavoring. The matcha was good quality and didn’t taste like dirt. All the drinks were just balanced. Paid 22 for everything which I think is reasonable.
