Public Square Coffee House

First timer and did not disappoint. Great coffee, food, customer service and atmosphere! Tried their Black Sesame Latte and the Not-so Old Fashioned Biscuit & Gravy and it was phenomenal. Will be returning! Thanks for the great experience.

Extremely friendly and helpful staff, delicious food, decent prices. Highly recommend for a quick bite to eat.

We were the ONLY people at the front of the line...there was easily 4 people behind the counter. They barely acknowledged us for 5 minutes....then the guy out sweeping the floor and clearing dishes felt bad for us and came put his broom down and took our order. It was literally iced tea and cold brew coffee. Super easy order. They servers were just rude with the exception of the probably lowest paid employee (only saying that because he was young and not making the coffee) Not sure I would head back here.

Love your coffee and atmosphere. Been forever since I've been down to La Mesa. Planning on heading down this month for an open mic or concert night so I can show my lady a good time. You guys are the BEST. 2 thumbs up

Public Square never disappoints! Their coffee is always prepared wonderfully and the americanos are delicious. For food, I choose a scone with cinnamon butter if I want a sweet dish. If I am wanting a savory dish, the coffee carnitas sandwich is a flavor explosion you don’t want to miss!

Plan to arrive early if you want to avoid the crowds. If you like sleeping in, prepare to wait in line. I promise, it’s worth it!

This is a cool shop no doubt. What sets it apart are two things. First, the people that work there are so considerate and cool at the same time. Second their food is legit. Everyone eats their not dry at all scones with crazy good butters but I had their biscuits and gravy! Holy junk, the lady behind me noticed and got one for herself.

This place is hip with a clean and refreshing vibe. They offer a delicious diet friendly coffee and food menu. The service does take a little long but it was the weekend so completely understandable. They have some toys for kids so it's nice when you have impatient little ones. I highly recommend this place.

Delicious food and coffee and wonderful atmosphere. I love the laptop free tables, but there is also plenty of space for those working. The shakshouka totally hit the spot, and the presentation was perfect! Will definitely be coming back! A bit pricey, but worth it for a special coffee trip!

Finally - a cute breakfast place for when we're visiting La Mesa! Love the atmosphere and the very friendly service. We loved the Pandan and Vanilla lattes with the signature breakfast sandwich. Getting back in line for a scone to go!

Best coffee and food I’ve had in San Diego yet. The atmosphere is warm and inviting and the humans who work there are genuine, kind spirits. They are very community focused with a mission of inclusion and you can feel it ❤️
