Hawthorn Coffee

I've come here a few times and always enjoy the coffee. It's a spot I go to whenever I'm in normal heights and need coffee. While there's not a ton of seating (some inside, some outside), I always manage to get a seat. It's probably best for a group of 1 or 2 if you plan on sitting. I usually get a lavender thyme latte which has the perfect balance of lavender. This time I saw they had a special menu (next to the cashier- not on the wall). The barista recommended the piña colada (nitro flash coffee with pineapple syrup and coconut cream). She gave a good description of it so I ordered it although it's not a flavor combo I usually go for.IT WAS AMAZING. So weird but so good, a great summer drink because it's light/refreshing more than the heavy coffee flavors I'm used to getting.

Cool spot within walking distance from the airbnb I'm staying at.Food looks good, coffee smells great, and seems to attract a lot of locals! Was greeted with a great smile when we came in so I'm excited to try this spot!

Hawthorn Coffee has been my favorite local shop since ~October 2022 (I moved to an apartment about 2 exits away)! My weekend trips are always such a treat, my go-to is an Iced Salted Maple Latte w oat milk. I've also tried their iced Lavender Thyme Latte which is also sooo good! For breakfast I've had their Eggxactly Toast, King Toast and Jolly Green Bagel (all SO yummy).Katie is one of the baristas I most interact with, and she is the sweetest. at this point she's remembered my name and my order. Jay is the GOAT and makes drink SO fast lmfao! Service is always so quick (except when the shop is rightfully packed lol). I love Hawthorn so much, I've gotten some friends to go because of how often I post about them on Instagram LOL. Thanks Hawthorn for being my favorite weekly treat!

Best cortado art of my life and the ratio is perfect every time the environment is amazing and yhe staff is super friendly and knowledgeable

Ahhhhh such an cutie little spot on Adam's avenue! Got the pumpkin spice latte and plain bagel with cream cheese and it was perfect! Coffee was amazing and the bagel was what you'd expect from a bagel! The outdoor tables are really nice too since it's such a cute street :)) will be back for sure!

Amazing coffee and I'm a big coffee person . I honestly can't wait to go back . The coffee was rich delicious and not to sweet or bitter perfect balance.

Cute little coffee shop! And when I say little I mean little! Limited seating inside, a couple tables on the outside sidewalk. If you're able to snatch a table then it's a nice spot to grab a coffee and talk.Honestly I don't remember what my sister and I ordered lol. But I do remember enjoying whatever coffee I got. My sister got the king toast which is the toast with bananas, almond butter, etc. I got an avocado toast so we split. Both breakfast toasts were super good!Parking is street parking with meters. Bring coins, use your card/Apple Pay/whatever. They have some stickers and merchandise like shirts if you're into that!

My husband and I went to SD for our baby moon and stayed near Hawthorne so we walked there every morning. We had the Iced Chai & Golden Milk Latte for drinks and they were both AMAZING. enough to say I've transitioned from a coffee gal to a chai latte girl! The golden milk latte was also super delicious- subtly earthy. Their toasts are amazing- our favorites were the King Toast and Eggsactly. They were super delicious. The service and ambiance were also very pleasant- super chill and everyone was super sweet. We'd definitely recommend and will be returning when we go back to SD

So yummy! I was in town at a nearby air bnb and walked here for some breakfast and coffee. fast service and nice workers. The toast was delish as well as the latte!

Incredible coffee quality - I got the lavender thyme latte with oat milk and it was so smooth, not soapy lavender, truly delicious! You can tell the coffee (compa roaster's) was the type that's smooth and yummy and not acidic. The thyme flavor was perfection (you will taste the thyme more than the lavender but it was a yummy herb taste not too nasal-y/over powering) ... such a yummy drink!I wish I lived closer to try the vanilla latte given another review said it was the creamiest vanilla latte they'd had in SDI walked in a hot mess needing my caffeine boost in this heat and J was so kind and patient with my questions given I was indecisive and wanted to try so many of the flavors as I was falling asleep hahaCan't recommend this place enough with how great the latte and service was and grateful I stumbled across it when my friends were going to the ice cream place next door.
