Crema's Take

The real draw here is the paraglider launch pad views and generous outdoor seating that makes it feel more like a scenic hangout than a typical café—perfect for lingering with friends while watching people literally take off from the cliffs below. Coffee takes a backseat to the full bar, sandwiches, and that unbeatable San Diego weather, so come for the experience and stay for the surprisingly solid food rather than expecting specialty roasting excellence.

What to expect

Specialty coffee. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Light food on the menu. Open late.

Drinks with a view and that amazing San Diego weather. It was bit busy but we were able to get great seats. They have a full bar but canned seemed easier. We didn’t order food or use the restrooms (portapotties only!).

Super cool spot. Amazing place to bring people from out of town. Awesome to watch the gliders take off. Great sandwiches and a surprisingly long list of beers on tap. A ton of seating and they make the food quick even when it’s really busy. Love these local spots!
