I was in town for a quick weekend trip, and this was my go to place for coffee early in the mornings to catch up on work before exploring the city. The coffee and lattes were great, and the staff was fast even when they were busy.

Popular and busy for a reason! A local institution with a unique drive thru setup. Clearly passionate about what they sell and always fresh. Everyone comes here…locals, police, military, everybody loves Cafe Moto!

I was hoping to go in the shot and pick out my own bag of fresh roasted coffee but they are closed. You can go up to the window or go through the drive through. I like flavored roasted coffees like Cinnamon roasted or coconut flavors. I got there last bag of Vanilla roast but didn't get the vanilla flavor when I brewed in my MocaMaster. Still good coffee but I think I will stick to smaller roasters in North County San Diego where I can watch them roast the coffees and pick out more flavors onsite.

If you know, you know. Cafe Moto is the place to go to for a solid bag of beans. They're the premier roaster in and around SD. A lot of other coffee shops actually source their brand from Moto..The staff at this location is super personable and always has spot-on recommendations for what beans to take home. If you don't like them, bring them back and they'll make it right!

It easily became our favorite coffee shop in SD. We came here twice over the last weekend! Highly recommend their flat white & caramel dulce latte.

Fantastic Coffee! I really enjoyed the Lil Pump Coffee it was like pumpkin pie in a cup! Expertly crafted highly recommend! I bought some beans to bring home with me because we were visiting the area. If I lived in California I would be a regular here! Decor is artful mod totally hip!

First time here. Heard a lot of good things about this spot. I picked up a bag a coffee for some home pour over. They hooked me up with some of thier cold brew which is amazing. Thus the 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐.I will update rating after some pour overs in the AM. Super excited about this adventure. The staff there was super helpful and knowledgeable about ratio for cold brewing and pour over. Also a good sign when they have roast dates!! UPDATED 6/22/21 Day one brew was amazing!! Did a pour over, busing a 17 to 1 ratio at 195°,turned out great! Going to be fun trying all their coffee for pour over and cold brew!!

Love! Came last week to try their cappuccino and adore. This week we came to explore their huge room in the back where actually they roast the best coffee beans from all over the world including my birth country Brazil. Their variety is amazing and also they carry organic decaf which for me is a plus. Yummy coffee bean covered chocolate is a must too. Literally you will find here everything related to coffee. Is a Coffee Lover Paradise. Great knowledge of coffee also.

What a neat place! As a big Moto fan and Rider it was especially Nice to see the decor around the cafe. I'm not much of a coffee drinker but I do appreciate the meticulous care and taste of their brews. My SO really wanted to visit here and get a bag of their grounds as they're one of her favorites. I'm a big fan of their hot chocolates! Oaxaon was really on point!

My favorite coffee in San Diego. I just wish the service was friendlier! The person who took my order last time looked miserable and wasn’t remotely helpful. Otherwise my rating would be 5 stars.

Coffee is good, but wait is sometimes ridiculous regardless of what time of the day it is. Most often than not drive thru does not follow an order, and they do not care about who arrived first. Almost every time I have used this service people who arrive after me have has their orders taken first. Walk up is just as slow, 15 minutes for an americano is absurd.

RUDE staff/overall experience from one of the girls working there. She seemed frustrated and took it out on me & my husband. We’ve been here several times and this is the first time we have experienced this.

Took 20 minutes to get my coffee. They forgot my order. Approximately 15 people passed through and got coffees before me. Also this is the second time in the space of a week this happened me. Coffee is nice but not worth the wait.

Waited over 10 minutes before order was taken. Did not take the order in the way the cars arrived. Pretty annoying. I also noticed the price increase which is understandable, but due to the lack of service I won’t be coming back. I’ve had to wait an hour before, everyone behind me was given a coffee before me somehow (I had one coffee). I’ve given this place too many opportunities and will NEVER be back. After waiting over 20 minutes, I finally got my coffee and it was wrong. 🤓 I was the second car to get here and 5 cars left before I even got my order
