Reviews for Lofty Coffee La Costa in Carlsbad, CA
Love the coffee and the staff's attitude BUT while waiting for my coffee, I watched the barista prepare the grounds, using the... palm of their hand adding more ground to the portafilter and then using their finger to level out the grounds. Sanitary? I don'tthink so. This was done over and over again as I waited. There needs to some training done here. Read more
Everything was tasty and the service was friendly, but I probably wouldn?t return. The sausage, egg and cheddar croissant and... kids breakfast plate took 45 minutes to arrive and were definitely overpriced. Read more
Popular place. Located right off El Camino Real and La Costa Ave. in the recently renovated shopping center. Nice open space... with outdoor patio seating. Plenty of room. Read more
Lofty has always been a great place. Good personal service and conversation. They only hire happy people. As you can see from my... pics I?m a big deal at Lofty. Read more
Excellent coffee. It was highly recommended and I know why. Good roast and taste to my cold brew. Had a taste of an espresso and... it was MUCH better than the "trendy chain place that likes creepy fish women" espresso. I had a Lofty-Style Nola cold brew andand it was a good coffee flavor and was very very good. I also had the Organic Acai Bowl and all the ingredients were fresh andthe bowl was worth getting. My group had a variety of their other coffees and everyone had positive feed back. The french toast was not something I bought, but a friend in the group did and they wouldn't shut up about it...seriously. ???? Come in withexpectations of good coffee and good food and you will leave happy. Value for the cost. Cheap is cheap but good is worth what itcosts and this place is the latter. Read more
All locations so far have been great. Friendly staff. Came on a Sunday morning, be aware of long lines when coming. Can?t go... wrong here, will be back when I?m in the area next ???? Read more
Well this place is?ok. Their order fulfillment accuracy is really questionable. Things we clearly did not order arrived at the... table, but the coffee I did order arrived after I had finished eating. I can?t say that either the food or the coffee wasmemorable. Whatever you do don?t sit on the patio facing El Camino Real. At times so noisy it interrupts conversations. Read more
This is niche coffee place with nice breakfast. I ordered the coffee and a French toast. French toast was amazing. I did order... both at the same time so the coffee became clod ( I should have ordered the coffee later) . Niche surrounding and you will feelat home. Read more
