Public Square Cafe — Restaurant in San Diego

With just a Soft Opening they don’t have the full restaurant offerings yet. But what they do have is awesome coffee, pastries and other yummy cafe items! I love the open downtown Plaza ambience w/ the Trolley that passes by every so often and the Santa Fe Train Depot just a block away. Urban chill has now mingled w/ the dank vibe of Public Square. Sweet! (The ever busy and popular mother ship Public Square is in the heart of La Mesa Village.) Sitting at the Cafe tables was so relaxing as the seats are super comfy and cozy. Made me want to stay longer. The Plaza is cuddled in the middle of San Diego’s iconic buildings. But doesn’t feel claustrophobic. And there is a parking garage conveniently located right through the lobby doors of the main building. Just steps away from the Cafe. It’s a bit pricey. but worth it for me. I know there is much more to come with Public Square Cafe so I’ll be back to check it out. It’s a must stop whenever I’m...

This is a great hidden gem! I walked past this place for months before realizing it was a coffee shop. Not only does the coffee taste good, but the staff will go out of their way to make you a fantastic drink. I’ve watched numerous times people ask the main gal to make a drink and she’s game to try! I always come back and the staff remembers me and picks up conversation where we left off. The service is amazing and is worth it alone for this stop. Plus I love the little affirmation card they give with their coffee, it makes me feel good getting my day started....

Melody, is the star of the show she makes the best drinks hands down and her energy and light she brings to her service is what makes us coming back for more, I don’t know she does it all by herself especially during the morning rush to service a line full of people all by herself.. I’ve been Starbucks with 5 people working and it still takes melody half the time to help us and if it wasn’t for her I would go somewhere closer but she’s worth the walk and spending a little more for pandan latte and quote of inspiration...
