San Diego has many coffee shops to choose from, but if you're looking for a laid back environment and a delicious cup of coffee - Spill the Beans is the place to go!



There are a couple Spill the Beans locations around San Diego, but I decided to visit the one on the corner of Market St and Sixth Ave. If you, like me, want a less busy location to visit you should definitely choose this location opposed to the one near Seaport Village. The shop is a small, but very open with a bar along the front windows. There is minimal decor, but I really enjoyed the Pot Head neon sign just inside the door.


They had a simple and basic coffee menu, so I ordered my go-to, a vanilla latte -- iced. I really loved it. I can be very picky when it comes to coffee, cream, and syrup ratios but they really nailed it. I think the flavor of their espresso is very nice and really shines through the other additives in the latte. Overall, I really enjoyed the simplicity of Spill the Beans and I truly believe they have some of the best coffee I've ever had.



Location: 9/10

Environment: 9/10

Coffee: 9/10




Would I recommend Spill the Beans?


Absolutely, the coffee was great and I plan on visiting again soon!

About Me

My name is Courtney and I'm from Fort Wayne, Indiana. Since high school, coffee has been a part of my daily routine and I slowly became infatuated with coffee shops and the environment they create.  In my first year at college, I decided to start dedicating any and all of my free time to going to local coffee shops in Indianapolis. Today, I've gone to over 12 shops just in Indianapolis alone!

As my coffee obsession grew, so did my love for traveling. When I was growing up a family vacation was an annual occurrence. Whether it was to the beach or the mountains I didn't care, I just loved exploring new places. Today, I travel any chance I get, even if it's just a day trip. 

As of late, I've been combining both of these loves by always going to a new coffee shop at every destination. I decided to create this blog to not only share my love of coffee but to hopefully give others inspiration to explore... and drink some amazing espresso along the way!
