Art Of Espresso - S San Diego

Anyone who knows me, knows that I LIVE on air and a great cup of coffee.Today we visited Art of Espresso and honestly, it’s probably THE best blended coffee I’ve ever had anywhere.I got the blended Java with a hint of chocolate so it was lightly sweet just how I like it.The location is actually ON the UCSD Campus and doesn’t advertise so you won’t find it otherwise.Plenty of outdoor tables and a great breeze from La Jolla shores.Privately owned and operated, it’s one of the best kept secrets in town!#espresso #familyowned #coffee #nikkiffrancis #commercialrealestate

My fave coffee place on campus!! I've tried so many different coffee shops as well as the ones on campus (Copa Vida, Starbucks, Audrey's) and this one is the best! My go-to order is a Vietnamese coffee with oat milk extra espresso, and even though I replaced the milk, it is still very similar and delicious. The regular coffees are also good, much better than Starbucks. Their crossiants are also tasty. The wait can be a bit long in the morning but well worth it. I usually go here if I left to UCSD without drinking my coffee LOL. Relatively inexpensive compared to the other options and very convient as it is between Price Center and Revelle.

I love Art of Espresso the prices are really good and they have great drink and pastry options. The only downside is that it is that it is a coffee cart so there is only outdoor seating which is not great for all weather or when it is just too cold outside. But other than that they have great quality coffee and I love their smoothies!

This spot located on UCSD's campus is the perfect place to take meetings, grab a cup of coffee before work or class, or to simply hang out with friends. There's nothing much to critique other than complements for the amazing and consistent coffee every time! I had a simple hot latte, and found that it came out really quick! The employees were also really kind and patient considering how busy the stand gets on a Tuesday morning! I really recommend this spot on campus, and appreciate the affordable price as other coffee places are getting more and more expensive.

One of my favorite spots on campus to grab coffee. It's super convenient and located near a ton of classrooms (Mandeville, Mandler, Ledden, etc) on campus. I've gotten a few different drinks from here and no matter how busy it is, they always have super quick service to get your drink out. Drinks I've gotten Vietnamese coffee (4.5/5) I love Vietnamese coffee but it is super strong for me. They offer 1,2, maybe 3 shots here and I got a 1 shot last time. I wish I had gotten it with whole milk because I think the almond milk watered down the flavor. Nonetheless, this is a good drink but I just ordered it wrong Mint Mocha (5/5) I rarely ever get mochas because they are too sweet. This drink definitely was on the sweet side but the mint flavor was so good. It tasted like an Andes mint to me Salted Caramel Latte (2/5) I might have gotten this drink but it did taste a bit watered down to me and was sort of bitter. I definitely want to come back to try their pastries and more of their coffee. The staff here is super nice and helpful when helping you decide on drinks.TLDR: fueling my undergrad career one coffee at a time and an incentive to wake up and go to class
