Reviews for Bird Rock Coffee Roasters in Carlsbad, CA
From the outside, this place was clearly poppin' w/ the locals. They roast their own beans, check. Buy a bag of beans and get a... free drip, check. Barista poured my drip with zero room, check. Coffee was aromatic and hot. Each sip, quite flavorful.Starbucks made going out for coffee cool, Bird Rock took that torch and ran with it. Read more
I had the opportunity to go here a few times while I the area recently. Busy and bustling atmosphere, highly competent baristas,... good pastries and good coffee. I went more than once, and would go again if in the area. Read more
Honestly, I can't decide if I love this Bird Rock location so much because of the delicious coffee, or because of the incredible... staff working here! Coffee (drinks) are always perfect and beautiful. Bird Rock lattes are my absolute favorite. Smooth,creamy, rich nutty flavor, perfect amount of foam, AND beautiful! Seriously. My husband loves their coffees (brewed varietieschange daily). The pastries and food are great too. Ok, but in truth, it's the coffee team working here that makes it sospecial... wow! Genuine, warm, caring, calm ... real. I don't care how busy or frantic, they always smile and great us warmly. They look us in the eye and never rush us to get on to the next customer. I love that you can see them brewing your coffee,and even the person cooking in back. You can tell the team gets along well and enjoys their jobs. In addition, questions I'vehad about the different beans have always been answered intelligently and thoughtfully. Whoever does their hiring is spot-onand to be congratulated. They have found some real gems. Long story short? Come visit and stay awhile. Have an amazing cupof coffee along with a wonderful smile; both of which will brighten your day. That's what makes this our favorite north countycoffeehouse and keeps us coming back! :) :) Sorry I don't have a picture of this morning's latte to attach to this review. Next time! Read more
Visiting here was a 10/10 experience! First of all, the gentleman at the counter was more than helpful. He took extra time to... helps us find which coffees we'd like and made sure to get the sauces for my sandwich on the side since I wasn't sure if I'dwant them. Both our coffees were delicious! My breakfast sandwich was fantastic. Highly recommend! Read more
I don?t often write negative reviews, especially now when so many businesses are struggling with staffing. Plus this location... has hired a lot of new staff recently, so I gave it some time before writing this review. I come here everyday, sometimestwice! I just cannot deal with the service anymore, and I?m going to have to find a new spot. My drink ticket was lost, then Igot placed behind all the other beverages on the bar, and no apology for the wait. This morning my drink was placed 4-5 drinksafter people who were in like behind me and ordered after me. The coffee is always fine, but you can be waiting her for 20-30minutes for one beverage even on a slow day. The food has always been awesome, but it?s not worth the frustration. Read more
Best staff! They take their coffee seriously so if you?re in a rush order ahead and be kind! Due to the pandemic everywhere is... short staffed and businesses are having a very tough time hiring in every industry. Food is great. I love the breakfast burritowith avocado salsa. Maggie & Kelsey are superstars. But so is everyone else. Thank you for keeping me going everyday! Read more
Excellent coffee (hot or cold), but don?t sleep on the food. The breakfast sandwich is very good. I?d recommend getting it on... the croissant and adding bacon and avocado. Pairs well with an iced ?Sandpiper.? Friendly staff, great indoor and outdooratmosphere. Great table spaces if you need to fire off a few emails. Read more
I live nearby and I was there a lot of times. Always something... coffee can be too hot, cold, weird taste. Avocado toast is... not the same as in other bird rick places. The staff is so relaxed and you can wait for your order forever. I think this placeneeds more professional employees and everything should be good. Read more
