Ascend Coffee Roasters

No longer at this location.

Great meeting place for old friends. Peppermint Mocha is amazing. Breakfast Burrito is awesome .

Ordered a cappuccino drink. Nice coffee shop.

The coffee is terrific and the food is too! Just the regular drip coffee is perfectly “bean juice” and the breakfast burritos are big and filling. This is my new go-to spot! The prices and the quality are far better than Bird Rock Roasters, Better Buzz, and Skybound Coffee in Vista!

Called and ordered 5 lemon bars with a manager to be picked up on a Sunday. Called again to confirm the order with a manager and she confirmed the pick up. When I arrived to pick them up they were closed due to no electricity. I can understand the circumstances, however I do not understand why I wasn't given a call to let me know so I didn't drive all the way there. When I spoke to an assistant manager today she looked at me sideways like she was offended when I asked politely if there was anything she could do to make it right. She only replied with how they've been going through alot (wrong answer) I simply told her what happened and that in the future they should call the customer, apologize and let them know of the circumstances. She agreed, but again said that her hands were tied in being able to offer anything free. I've been in the restaurant industry for 21 years and there's a right and wrong way to handle these types of situations so you don't end up getting a terrible review. So far great coffee (medium roast whole bean bag) and lemon bars. However, this also isn't the first time I've experienced subpar customer service. Either way, it's real simple, a genuine apology and something on the house. Still waiting on a phone call to resolve the matter so I can take this review down.

Nice atmosphere, very nice barista, but quality control on the beans is maybe the worst I’ve ever seen. I bought a bag and it had many half roasted beans, beans with major defects and I even found a small stone that would have broke my 400$ grinder if I didn’t look closely. The coffee had mold taste which is from the bean defects that should have been sorted before roasting. Sorry to throw you guys under the bus but it’s a simple fix to greatly improve quality.

Chipotle breakfast burrito Coffe pretty good
