The Forum Coffee House
4340 Genesee Ave UNIT 110, San Diego, CA
Crema's Take
“Forum Coffee is a San Diego favorite where creative, consistently excellent coffee and matcha drinks shine through signature creations like their banana bread-inspired cold brew that keep regulars coming back for years. The vibrant atmosphere and thoughtfully designed space make it equally perfect for a quick caffeine boost or settling in for a few hours, plus their seasonal offerings and playfully named drinks add personality that goes beyond standard cafe fare. With convenient parking and reliable quality across both their coffee program and pastry selection, it's the kind of neighborhood spot that earns genuine loyalty from high schoolers through college years and beyond.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks, good cold brew. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu. Parking available.

Let me start with the fact that I NEVER write reviews. This has been my favorite coffee shop since freshman year of high school, and Im now a senior in college! Love the seasonal drinks/pastries, and they have ceremonial grade matcha that’s so so fire!! They have fantastic…
What I liked was the location (close to everything, like discount tire and home depot), the funny names of drinks, good service, and they had cream in addition to half and half for my Americano. It was a little bit dark inside, and there were tables with people chatting, so this…
