Reviews for Old California Coffee House and Eatery in San Marcos, CA

The Atmosphere is great. The coffee was only okay. They also charge you extra tax fees for bathroom services? Which they don't... mention to you and expect a tip on top of that. I thought Cafes and Restaurants serving food and drinks must legally provide forrestrooms but apparently we (the customer) need to be charged extra for that. The dine-in cups are also plastic which kills theambience a bit. Read more

Be careful i order a Turkey Cranberry Sandwich Sunday afternoon with family. We order sandwich there often. Like clock work... the sandwiches were brought out very quickly. However of the three sandwiches one only had one very thin slice of turkey meat. The other two sandwiches had three or more slices of turkey meat. The trainee that was assisting must not have measured theamount of meat ? In the future I will carefully observe the amount of meat placed on the sandwiches before allowing the assistto leave. One member of the family was short the desired amount of turkey meat. Read more

This was were I fell in love with coffee shops. As a French person, I have an appreciation for a place that has a little... something cool, personal, and unique. This place has it all and more. At some point someone took ownership and changed a bit thefunction and look, all for the better. It has kept its uniqueness and something got better. For the love of me I can?t tell whybut it felt like bunch of details got better. Read more

Excellent coffee and friendly folks! I liked it so much that I purchased two extra bags of coffee to take home with me to North... Carolina. Read more

Its a very nice cafe that instantly sends the vibe of a very authentic place to the costumers. I love that it?s locally owned... and has a heart and soul. Its a self service place. They offer nice breakfast and lunch options. I would suggest the owners tomake a few furniture updates, the whole ambiance seems a bit tired and dusty IMHO Read more
