Wunderbar: Win, Place, Show

Wunderbar is the operative word as a singular expression for Bird Rock Coffee. This place has grow from a small store front to a full scale in house coffee roasting, cupping kind of place. Street friendly front area patio and indoors open air seating!

What caught my eye this time was the recent Barista contest, in which (Bird Rocks home grown turf) Cassidy Trapp got the Win, Place, Show award! Now you got 3 good reasons to take a shot- coffee shot that is. On this particular day they introduce a Panama: Hartmann Honeyed coffee. It is worth it to drive 300 miles or further to partake of these delectable delights!

Old Town has long been one of my favorite spots to simply relax and stroll around on a beautiful day. There's nothing like strolling through the tangible history of our state's foundations amongst a notoriously haunted settlement. Of all the charms that Old Town has to offer, this little cafe is quite distinct on its own. The San Diego Old Town Market Cafe is located at the front of the SD Old Town Market, right in front of where the Trolley buses line up on Twiggs Street. Yep, this isn't so much a 'cafe' so to speak since it's actually this little hole in the wall coffee stand. But not so fast...it's way better than your average coffee stand or coffee shop. The lattes and the hot chocolate are yummy and they have deliciously large chocolate chip cookies as well that are made quite similarly to the heavenly ones served at Nordstrom cafe. The food here is of wonderful quality. That said, they do have sandwiches, but I have not tried them yet though. However, they are delivered from a company called The French Gourmet and as well, they looked really fresh and yum.Either way, this place deserves to be on the map and anyone planning a Trolley tour should think about loading up on food or sandwiches from this place. Local is where it's at!
