Cafe On The Square - San Marcos

A relaxing coffee shop with quality food and coffee.

Sat down for 5 minutes and couldn't get cool. Why does a coffe joint keep it so hot? Nonsense. I'm starting to think this town doesn't believe in AC

Tried this place out for the first time recently really loved their coffee. We try to go to coffee shops (especially locally owned ones) often and this is one of the best tasting ones so far. Staff were very sweet the space was welcoming.

Coffee bar is just the spot you can't miss on your daily commute in San Marcos. For years I have come here and always enjoyed my time and coffee. Sophia always makes my drink better and better every time.

I try not to leave negative reviews, but I have to be honest. The coffee is not great. The espresso machine looks unmaintained and I see the shots going bad as they sit for an extended time. I've frequently seen the porta-filters remain in the machine without being cleaned (same as the steaming wand). There's also a REALLY bad smell in the building, it's been there for years but has gotten much worse lately. I've gone with a group on multiple occasions this year, and we all wanted to exit as quickly as possible. What's happening?
