Another update since it's been a couple of years since our last update. We visit frequently and can honestly say things have gotten tremendously better. The staff is definitely friendlier and the coffee and food has been delicious overall. We love the cafe Cubano Gibraltar Hot teas Lates Fresh baked goods Waffles The new bean bowl with eggs was a nice pleasant surprise. We will continue to try new things and update as necessary.

First time at Soul grind and got a chai latte and an avocado toast and it was amazing. The wait was not long and the ambiance is a perfect place to meet up with a friend or get some work done if you're a remote employee. Plenty of space for seating, plugs for computers, open concept with lots of natural lighting. The vibe is great for boosting productivity!

Soul Grind is hands down one of my favorite spots, especially when you're at Pacifica Beach! I went on a Friday around 10 AM and noticed a line starting to form, so I highly recommend ordering for pick up and then claiming a spot to sit and enjoy your coffee. Be sure to check in for your order so it's fresh when you arrive. The weather can get chilly, so definitely bring a jacket if you're planning to hang out outside. They have both outdoor and patio seating, which is perfect for enjoying the views. Plus, there's a bathroom on-site, which is always a nice touch. Soul Grind is my go-to spot when I'm with family or friends. The vibe is laid-back, and it's a great place to grab your coffee and soak in the coastal atmosphere. Highly recommend it! Dog and kid friendly. High chairs available

Ordered a green "brekkie" + beach breakfast plate for my sister. Let's stop with the word brekkie plz. My sandwich was uncomfortably large. The toast was sooo thick and crispy + the way everything was layered on. Not sure how any human could fit this into their mouth (.....) I had to deconstruct it to eat it. I may be goofy though because they legit have the whole menu (ceramic?) replicated out on the counter but I didn't notice until we sat down since I just walked in and grabbed a menu. But I really enjoyed it nonetheless. Sis loved her platter but said her eggs were way overcooked. But thought the iced caramel vanilla latte was incredible! Huge cafe and portions. Lots of seating, including a cozy space in front of a fireplace. Very friendly service. Wasn't very busy this past Wednesday around 9AM but I've driven past on weekends and have seen a line out the door!

This is a cute coffee shop with a nice coastal view! We came on a Friday afternoon and it was pretty busy. Plenty of seating inside and they have a small enclosed outdoor area for seating as well. I ordered the dirty bird salad bowl and iced Vietnamese coffee. The salad was good with their sauce. Lots of greens, veggies and chicken. The iced Vietnamese was lacking in that authentic Vietnamese taste, I probably would get a regular iced coffee next time. Service was a little on the slower side. My friends ordered smaller items and they got their order pretty late. For example, she ordered an empanada and it took maybe around 20min? At least the weather was nice the day we went so we could enjoy the outdoor weather while waiting!

I went here for the first time with my cousin, on our way south towards Half Moon Bay from SF... I totally loved it!!! Loved the food, the coffee and had a great time sitting outside enjoying the sun.. it's just a hop, skip and jump away from the beach.. I will definitely go back again anytime I'm in that area..

Tons of breakfast options, great vibes, outside seating, ocean-adjacent views, dog-friendly (outside). The pear almond tart was the best pastry I had that week -- nay, that month. I wish I bought more. Highly recommend to anyone visiting the area!

Wow this place is busy. The line was out the door. The coffee was good and the menu is vast. As soon as you come in you can see the menu and real menu items at the register. Sooo yummy. When the food was coming out it looked so good passing by. I got the mocha and I was very pleased. There was a young girl out front with her art work. It was made with the coffee grounds - quite amazing. Her name is Chi . I'll come back and try the full Menu. I was dropping by to see the art which caught my eye. I'm glad I did.

There are coffee shop experiences and then there's a coffee shop experience with that great beach town experience. And in spite of the stormy gloomy weather that was happening at the time of my visit, not even inclement conditions could suppress the cool vibe this place exuded. I could tell many were locals as they rattled off their orders with ease and that sense of familiarity which added to the warmth and hometown feeling at this place. I only had coffee and so did my friend who invited me to this place, so I can't speak much of the food, but from my observations, the dishes that went whizzing past me looked great. The atmosphere there was spirited, perhaps accentuated by the fact that all the customers were inside as the outdoor spaces were inhabitable. Between the customers and the staff, the energy of this place was invigorating, one that is truly organic that I feel has developed over time. I highly recommend this place that truly embodies the term neighborhood coffee shop to its fullest.
