Love this place. I've been coming here for years. Fast Wi-Fi and great coffee. Try their home made pop tarts if you really want something awesome! The bagels are delicious. One of my favorite lox bagels in San Diego.

Adorable and quaint. Off the beaten path, but well worth it. The horchata was amazing, not too sweet and perfect on the rice milk and cinnamon. Wish I could have a place like this in Michigan.

Subterranean Coffee Boutique is a genuine neighborhood gem. While it may not be trendy, it serves excellent espresso, tasty food, and locally baked goods. The solid customer service and nostalgic, eclectic vibe make it a favorite for locals and visitors alike!
