Stopped by Ox Coffee while visiting San Diego and absolutely loved it. The space is clean, modern, and welcoming, with plenty of seating and a great vibe. Ordering was easy, and the staff was friendly and helpful. The coffee was smooth and well made, with beautiful latte art. We tried both hot and iced drinks and enjoyed everything. They also sell bags of roasted coffee beans, t-shirts, and other cute merch. Plus, it’s literally next door to TJ Maxx, making it a perfect stop before or after shopping. Would definitely come back again! ☕✨
OX Coffee is a cozy and welcoming spot tucked between TJ Maxx and The Breakfast Company, making it a convenient stop while shopping or grabbing a bite nearby. The atmosphere is calm and comfortable, perfect for relaxing or taking a short break. They also offer a nice selection of teas, which I really appreciated. I ordered a London Fog and enjoyed it, though next time I’d ask to add a little sugar or honey since I prefer my tea slightly sweet. Overall, a pleasant neighborhood coffee shop I’d visit again.
oxcoffeesd introducing their new summer drinks, I got to try the Dj’s lemonade and Sunny Day Iced coffee, i’m not exaggerating if i say this heat definitely needs those drinks, so refreshing, cooling and yumiii. go grab your summer drink from @oxcoffeesd and enjoy the beautiful vibe around that area.
My husband and I were just driving nearby. I suddenly feel like coffee so we randomly picked one coffee shop in this area and the navigation brought us here. The shop was really well designed, I love the decoration with nice lights and mirrors on the wall. It’s next to the popular brunch place Mission Valley Breakfast Company if you couldn’t find it. The staff here was very friendly, she was very patient helped me to choose one unique but diary free low sugar and decaf coffee. I tried their non diary orange cinnamon roll foam, it was pretty yummy, and there’s a real big piece orange peel inside the cup. The taste is slightly too light for my taste but not bad, I still like it. My husband had an americano, it was pretty nice. If you are nearby, this is a good choice for coffee.
Nice quiet little coffee shop. I ordered the honey iced latte. It was good, I told the barista I didn’t want it too sweet so he made it less sweet than usual. My friend ordered a caramel iced latte and that was extremely sweet in my opinion. If you don’t really drink pure coffee without sugar then you will like the flavored lattes. However, if you DO drink coffee for the natural coffee flavor (no sugar) then I wouldn’t suggest too much of the flavoring. The iced honey latte I had was still a tad sweet for me but thankful there was no bitter taste nor any sort of watered down flavor either.
