Goldchild Coffee Roasters
240 Broadway, San Diego, CA
Crema's Take
“Goldchild is a no-nonsense San Diego roastery where excellent espresso and thoughtfully sourced beans take center stage, with a cozy, music-filled atmosphere that feels more like a Swedish coffee shop than a typical California café. Their signature drinks like the Handshake latte shine, but the real draw is their authentic pastries—saffron chocolate buns and cardamom creations that give the place an unexpectedly European soul. This is a spot for savoring great coffee and a pastry while chatting or lingering with the newspaper, not laptops, and people keep coming back because the quality simply doesn't waiver.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks, with a pour-over program, good cold brew. Slow-sit spot. Pastries on the menu.

커피가 정말 맛있었어요 It's really good cafe..! I had a flat white and a batch brew. Even though it was batch brewed, it was fragrant and very good, and the Americano was also light and good. the batchbrew was so good smell and I wonder what the cardamom buns taste like... I'd love to…
Went here for breakfast around 7:30 on a Saturday. Very nice and cozy vibe with oldies playing in the background. I got a Handshake latte and a chocolate and cardamom bun and then a cold brew to go. Personally my favorite was the cold brew, which was excellent and is made using…
