Peet's Coffee - La Costa

Great Americano and other flavors of coffee .. better than the BUCKS .! Go for it

This is a very popular Peet’s coffee in Bressi Ranch, Carlsbad. It can get busy, especially on the weekends, but there’s a good reason for that. The coffee is excellent and the outdoor patio right next to a park is fabulous. Every time we give our dog a dog wash at the Petco nearby, we walk over here and treat ourselves to a hot drink and walk our dog in the park. Bressi Ranch is just a wonderful place to walk around. This is a great location and the staff is hard-working and courteous. This is our preferred coffee shop to meet friends for a visit.

Switched from being a regular Starbucks to Peet's fairly recently. Overall Peet's has been much better. However, I do have 2 complaints that bring it down 2 stars (at least at this location).I prefer iced coffees, but the straws here have literally ruined the experience for me at times. This location uses paper straws that are so flimsy that not only do they dissolve into your drink after 10 minutes, they break in half when put into the lid. I understand that the change to paper straws was to be more environmentally conscious, but there are more reliable materials to make environmentally-friendly straws. There are recyclable ones that look and feel like traditional plastic, but there are also pasta straws that hold up very well and are biodegradable.The second complaint is that Peet's charges for milk alternatives. It's 2024, are we really charging extra for dairy alternatives that are the rule rather the exception in California?An improvement to either of these issues would raise my overall score by a star each.

I love it when I have the time to stop and sit in the sun and enjoy a great latte and people watch. There's just never enough time.

Love their coffee and their blueberry scones.... also their breakfast bites are tasty...the feta and spinach bites are filling and satisfying!
