Industrial Grind Coffee

Years later and I'm still coming here. Still my favorite coffee shop in SD. Everyone's sweet and friendly - quick service, even when there's 10 people waiting in line.Very community like, personable, and welcoming. Easy parking. Love the outdoor seating. Can get some work done, but not for long since there's no outlets outside.Yes, prices can be a little high, but isn't Starbucks or something almost the same? Not even close to the quality here. Just my 2 cents. LOLYou're getting quality here. Try their coffee - you won't regret it!

Industrial Grind strikes a great balance between humble local cafe and hip cool coffee spot. Their menu is simple. Pick a coffee preparation, and then pick a flavor to go in it. Many of the options have sugar free versions which is awesome! Service is friendly and I love looking at the cool products they carry in store. I've got to swing by to try their cupcakes, which are only available Saturdays and feature a different creative flavor each time. I've gotten the mocha and sugar free jasmine iced lattes before, and I've gotten them with both regular and oat milk. These coffees are pricy but taste way better than some of the big chains. I am no coffee connoisseur but even I can appreciate the smooth, roasted flavor that really shines in the drinks I've had here! All in all this is definitely a great option for my morning caffeine fix, any time I'm in the area!

Cute hole in the wall coffee spot for locals. Looks like they have creative bakery options on the weekend . They also have a cute "gift shop" area.We came on a Monday so we missed any creative bakery items as they are served on Saturdays. They do have a small regular menu of food and bakery items available. The item I had was small but ok. One member of the staff seemed passionate about coffee and regular customers. Coffee was average. My cousin had the frittata and was disappointed as it was simply a badly microwaved item (she returned it for a refund).So if you're looking for a neighborhoody place to meet a friend snd have a reasonable cup of coffee this is your spot. (Updated review to reflect frittata and not quiche).

Very welcoming environment with a lovely local vibe. We stopped in to grab coffee after a walk with our dog, and it was populated but not busy inside. The owner greeted us and we let her know it was our first time in. She did a quick tour of the menu, and we both ordered the iced badass, with oat milk. Christmas in a cup is the only way to describe it. A note: their iced drinks are served in the same cups as hot drinks :) We'll be back, frequently!

This is my local coffee shop, the baristas are so sweet and the coffee and treats are delicious! No inside seating, but they have outside seating and a ton of parking. I recommend the iced hillcrest, coconut and hazelnut - reminds me of Hawaii! They also have a great lavender latte

I've been here a couple times and I didn't write a review. Why? Because I have a huge bias for desserts and this place makes them in spades. I didn't want to just drop a high rated review based on one visit. Today, was a day for coincidences. I was meeting classmates to go study and they suggested Industrial Grind and then I saw on Facebook their post for carrot cake cupcakes. I new today was going to be a good day. On Saturdays they regularly post dessert items they are making for that day and I use to always be at a soul sucking job when they did this. I was late to the study session but just in time to get the last 2 cupcakes. The service was really good and friendly every time I've visited. If you are looking for a neighborhood coffee place or a great place for some outdoor studying then Industrial Grind is the place for you.

Love this place. But keep in mind it is mainly just for coffee and to get a nice little pastry. I did not see a lot of outlets and I didn't ask for any wifi codes either. They have a good selection of coffee available and a good knowledge of how the coffee should be prepared properly. I got their crucible the first time and I was WIRED. The second time I went I got their drip coffee and it was just enough for me. Every Saturday they also have a special cupcake that they sell. I went and got the PB and J cupcake and shared it with friends. It was delicious and my friend definitely asked if I could get more. Keep in mind this is only a Saturday thing. They sell food all days, but the special cupcakes are Saturdays only.

I stopped in after a yoga class next door with a friend. Great coffee, tons of locally owned snacks and coffee to purchase at the grab and go sections. I got an iced americano with flavors (they have many options both regular and sugar free) and a bagel with cream cheese. My friend grabbed an iced tea and an egg & cheese croissant sandwich. All were delicious and the two team members were working their behinds off. Super friendly & like a well oiled machine. I'll def be back next time I'm in the area! Got a lemon raspberry loaf to go too! Delicious!

Yummy iced coffee and lots of fun flavors to choose from! Next time I'll have to try the food.

A local coffee shop in Tierrasanta, it's tucked in a shopping center at Santo Road & the 52. Hard to miss if you're not looking for it but it's worth going to. Service is quick and friendly. They're passionate coffee people. Great local vibe and a nice quiet place to meet up with friends. Prices are a bit high but that's what it takes to support your local business, so it's worth it!
