Cafeina Cafe

I have had my eye on this coffee shop for so long, and am so glad that the wait was worth it! I ordered their horchata latte and the ham and cheese bagel sandwich. To start, the horchata latte wasn't too sweet which I enjoyed and highlighted the coffee notes really well. The ham and cheese bagel was delicious, the whole seed mustard grains and the red onion slices worked wonderfully to balance the sweet flavor from the ham. The spot itself is beautiful, with a gorgeous Día de Los Muertos mural, and a lovely patio near the back. Parking isn't too difficult to find (although you might have to park further down the street if the spots up front are taken). Highly recommend and I can't wait to go back to try more of their coffees!

I've been to this place a few times throughout the years. I've had their Afogato and Cajeta latte. Recently I decided to try their honey lavender just to switch things up. I think I should've stuck to my usuals. I think the lavender was a bit too strong and I generally like lavender drinks. I think this one wasn't for me.The staff is always nice, customer service has never been an issue. The mural is very impressive, I do recommend the Cajeta latte.I've noticed there aren't too many coffee shops that offer this flavor so I'm always excited when I find one that does.

Discovered an absolute gem in City Heights.I love the space they designed. The coffee was delicious, and the cheese pastry was the best one I've ever eaten. I'm talking it was VERY good. I want to come again when they are serving breakfast. I would expect this to be the best place for the vibe and delicious Mexican cuisines

Fellow Yelper Yo G. told me about this place like years ago and I must've had my head under a rock! They've been here for five years!!! I work up the street! But seriously, this is a hidden gem and for all the right reasons. It's hip and cool, and I loved how the young girl played Depeche Mode's Violater, on vinyl, on the turntable! Love it!They have the most unique coffee drinks, and I decided on the horchata latte. This was sooooooooo good! I had it iced since it was a nice summer day! They also have some interesting baked goods. I ordered the purple concha, which turned out to be ube. He: Do you want me to heat it up?Hecks yeah! Normally I don't but warm, this was the way to enjoy it! The inside is pretty chill to relax and I didn't know they had a patio. The staff is really friendly and I'm glad they open early. Great place to come to! Again, it's a hidden gem and it's cool that the community is supporting them! Lots of workers coming in!

After seeing this place advertised from another group, I decided to try. It was a great call. The coffee was great. Far better than Starbucks. The Mazapan Late had the perfect combo of Mazapan and coffee. Their Mexican pastries were right on point. My friend had the Cajeta Late and said it was better than any of the artificial flavors from Starbucks. We will be back!

Cafeina is one of my favorite spots in the city heights neighborhood. It's very cute and has a beautiful outdoor patio for relaxing and working and drinking coffee. It can get pretty hot back there on warmer days so be warned. In terms of the drinks, I love the Cajeta latte with oat milk :) very delicious and just the right amount of sweet for me. My husband loves the Marzapan latte for the floral notes it hits. I have also tried their lime drink with the Topo Chico and it's very refreshing and not sweet at all which is what I like in those types of drinks. The owner and staff are so kind and friendly. It feels very much local and like a neighborhood space! Sometimes they also collaborate with local taqueros and trucks and have food they sell outside which is extra delicious I don't think it's affiliated with cafeina specifically but it's nice to see the collaboration. I've mostly seen this on Sunday mid mornings so try to check it out on those days.Also, they feature ice cream which I haven't tried but many friends have and they say it's delicious. Overall a cute spot in the local community with a lot to offer.

We were waiting for Trujillo Traco ship to open. Yelp said they opened at 10, but at 10:30 it still wasn't open. So we stopped by this coffee shop while waiting. It had 5 star reviews so we decided to try it. This place is a little hidden and not someplace you would normally go to. The owner is great. He gave suggestions on different drinks. He recommended the mazapan and his personal favorite is the Columbiano which has a brown sugar flavor to it. I tried the mazapan with oat milk which tasted pretty good. Oat milk always gives drinks a nutty flavor. We also went back to try another drink. My party wanted to try the horchata which I thought was just okay. The spicy kick didn't go well with the espresso. Outside, there's a beautiful garden area which has great seating and a great place to sit around. They ran out of pastries at around 11, is a bit early considering they are open until 3. All in all, it's a great place to try.

New coffee drinker here so I've been really enjoying finding new cafes to check out. I found this gem right in the neighborhood so I decided to check it out before going on my morning walk! They focus on Mexican flavor coffees here which was really unique. I ordered a iced decaf mazapan latte with oat milk and it was sooo good! I also tried out a vanilla concha. It was my first time ever trying a concha and what better way to pair it with some delicious coffee! They also have a ice cream bar if you're not looking to grab a drink! There is some indoor seatings but I took my treats to go. Parking can be a-little tough around here since it's street parking. Great staff and the drinks didn't take long at all to come out! I posted some pics of the menu so check out the photos to see what they offer and the prices! Can't wait to come back again to try out their horchata latte!

It's such a cute place. A small hole in the wall. I love this place and will be back to visit if I'm visiting again!

Fire! Got the Colombiano latte. Bomb! Got the Ube concha. Fire! Highly recommend this place. Isn't the biggest and kinda hidden and secluded but worth it. Great service too.
