Dark Horse Coffee Roasters

"I’ve been to their other locations and they are way better. Don’t even waste your time coming to this location because the coffee is worse (they burnt the beans on my girlfriend’s coffee), the service is worse (weird vibe and attitude from the employees), man even the food is worse (strawberries were brown & soggy). Go to a different location."

"During our visit on Sunday morning, the staff's unfriendly demeanor was quite evident. Their lack of initiative to assist or inquire about our needs set a disappointing tone. When I inquired about espresso beans, the response lacked enthusiasm. They pointed vaguely, indicating the location behind us, and casually mentioned that any beans could be used for espresso. Seeking clarification on dark beans, I was simply directed to those labeled "dark." Well okay then. I was looking for a nice suggestion maybe a little conversation. The overall experience left much to be desired, highlighting potential areas for management to focus on improving customer service and communication strategies."

"I came because an article said it was some of the best coffee in San Diego. I’m inclined to agree! Really delicious, either black or in a flavored latte. It was high quality stuff. I’m also dairy-sensitive, so I appreciated that they had vegan donuts!"

"So great having Dark Horse in East County. Their house made syrups are yummy. I usually get the salted maple iced latte. Their Champ is really popular too. They have an assortment of pastries and breakfast items. There is also a small area with bagged coffee beans, merch, and some art."

"Love me some Dark Horse! Starbucks has gone wayyy downhill and DHCR has been my saving grace. The coffee is consistently fresh and delicious. The service is great and the seasonal options are always *chefs kiss* Never a bad experience here :)"
