Lani Coffee
101 Market St, San Diego, CA
Crema's Take
“Tucked in downtown San Diego, this Hawaiian-inspired coffee shop pulls authentic Kona coffee with impressive skill and serves it alongside genuinely excellent breakfast—think blackberry nut muffins and acai bowls that live up to the hype. The laid-back, welcoming vibe and genuinely friendly staff create the kind of neighborhood spot where you'll want to linger over a strong espresso, and at prices that won't make you miss that chain coffee shop around the corner.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu.

Chill coffee spot serving simple Hawaiian breakfasts and Kona coffee. Fantastic service and the workers were incredibly friendly. Great coffee, great acai, what more could ya ask for.
