Liquid Bean Cafe
2002 Jimmy Durante Blvd, Del Mar, CA
Crema's Take
“Tucked away in a quiet Del Mar business park, Liquid Bean is a charming neighborhood gem that punches well above its weight with expertly crafted espresso drinks and a genuinely warm crew behind the counter. The standout experience here is their inviting outdoor garden setting—a slice of peaceful, unhurried coffee culture that somehow thrives in an unexpected corporate location, making it feel like a discovery worth sharing. With consistently delicious drinks (both traditional and creative), fresh pastries, and an atmosphere that inspires lingering conversations, this is the kind of local spot that makes people feel good about their coffee ritual.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu.

I absolutely adore this place! It’s a hidden gem and the drinks and the food are consistently delicious. Go! It would be good for your soul! And tummy!
Liquid Bean might have the best coffee in Del Mar! Seriously, the ladies are sweet, the atmosphere inviting (hello outdoor coffee bar in a corporate center- only possible in San Diego), I love the water for dogs with a container off bones! Oh right, the coffee! Rich and full,…
