Zumbar Coffee & Tea

Great coffee! They roast their own beans and you can tell that a lot of care goes into everything they do. Their Hummingbird blend is outstanding. I always prefer to get coffee from a shop that roasts their own beans and have been to most of the coffee rosters in San Diego. Zumbar is among my favorites. If you’re in the area, this is a great spot.

I travel a lot and when visiting a city a do a lot of research before choosing a coffee shop. I'm a big espresso enthusiast! After a long conversation with Gemini AI, I decided on Zumbar and they did not disappoint. I've traveled all over the world and I can honestly say this is the best espresso I've ever experienced. It was strong, sweet and thick with the most beautiful dark crema I've ever seen. The oils in the bottom of the cup speak for themselves! The young women working behind the counter were delightful. I"ll be back today, and every time I'm in the area.

Great selection of coffee beans, very nice and knowledgeable staff. One of our new favorite specialty coffee places in San Diego.

The cup of coffee was wonderful, and the staff was friendly and informative. The barista shared a brief difference between the two different kinds of freshly brewed coffee. This was helpful. I found the coffee shop small, with limited indoor and outdoor seating. It was a challenging environment to read and ponder, which is what I was looking for. However, there were several people at Zumbar enjoying themselves.

Zumbar Coffee & Tea may be a little off the beaten path, but it's a true gem. This is our go-to spot when we have family and friends visiting from out of town. The atmosphere is fantastic, with locals enjoying their laptops, books, and friendly conversations—it feels like a classic coffee shop that genuinely cares about its customers. The staff is friendly, and the coffee is consistently great. Five stars!"
