This place is incredible! You can enjoy your tasty Genteel oat milk latte (try it!) in a nice lofty warehouse. There are beautiful plants hanging from the ceiling, good Wi-Fi, comfy chairs and lots of space. A must go if you’re in East Village!

Very simple. Clean lines. Art 🖼 mural on the back wall. Tried the Vixen, with almond milk & went for decaf. VERY good! Love that it has activated charcoal in it, made for a perfect ‘matcha’ level thickness that didn’t disappoint but wasn’t overbearing. Would repeat.

My new go to coffee shop in the San Diego area. Great coffee and baked goods and the staff is friendly as well. Indoor seating is limited but they also have a few tables outside.

Finding a coffee shop where the barista is enthusiastic about the fundamentals (espresso and coffee) is rare. Finding a coffee shop where the barista is knowledgeable on those same fundamentals, doubly so. Shoutout to Josh! Among the many local roasters, Genteel Coffee Co stands almost alone!

They managed to do what local cafes have accomplished. All while having an awesome line up of unique and well blended beans. I was fortunate to enjoy a cup of their Papua New Guinea. One sip and I knew I’d be be back. Two sips and I had to write them a review.

If you enjoy quality coffee, exemplary service, and clean/minimal/yet aesthetic cafe - you need to visit this place!

Every item on the menu, from their espresso based drinks to their wide variety of teas, is excellent! A delicious option for every need and want.
Pro tip: Don’t snooze on the pastries! My personal faves are the savory croissants and the sticky pecan bun! (Didn’t make the shot, they were too good!)

First time I had Genteel coffee was in their warehouse location downtown on J street.
Easily one of the best coffee spots! Justin is super passionate about coffee and community - just a great guy.
Today I stopped by at their new location for the first time. Looks awesome, great vibe and delicious coffee 😎

Sweet warehouse hipster coffee joint on the bustling corner of east village. I had the vixen latte and it was a charcoal agave sweetened dream, so delish. Dog friendly, Will be back!

Man if I lived here, I’d probably go here everyday. This place is incredible. Their space, their merch, and their coffee is on point. I’ll definitely be back next time I visit!

What a fantastic space. Very hip warehouse building setting. Coffee was good, I had the Vixen which is a latte with activated charcoal. Good vibe and cool music playing. Great service.

First of all, the space is phenomenal. It has a minimalistic grunge aesthetic with open spaces and random plants everywhere. The point is, the atmosphere is fresh yet unconventional, I’m at peace every time I visit. The coffee is also very good. I recommend the Vixen, it’s a charcoal latte. Oh and the best part is, they serve oat milk.
