Called in on Easter to check hours. They answered the phone quickly which I know is tough. Service in store was awesome. The physical location itself was perfect. Lots of seating, with areas that would be great to socialize in and also an area for studying.Got an iced mocha, they used a syrup but it's higher quality (I think), not overly sweet, more of a cacao vibe to it than normal. I could be wrong but seems more milk chocolate and lighter/medium roasts, as opposed to some places with bold dark roasts with strong chocolate flavors.I'll go back when in the area

Kettle Coffee is one of my favorite coffee shops. Their coffee is very good and not overly sweet. I like that they have season drinks that always fun to try. I also like their food / snack options.It’s pretty spacious inside too so it’s a great place to stay and read or work.

Kettle wins the prize on creativity in coffee! The Kyoto Cold Brew is so smooth :). Cannot wait to try the New Orleans creation on our next trip. We also had mochas and vanilla lattes...EVERY coffee drink was spot on! Their coffee is roasted to perfection. Croissants are HUGE and delicious, and the granola with berries is the best I have ever had...crisp and not mushy!

I am glad Kettle CAT survived the pandemic! They really care about customer service. No I am not just saying that because I got a free birthday meal. The manager was so sweet the very first time we met. He could see I was starving and offered me a free muffin on the house. Danny, you are wise beyond your years. As God is my judge, you will outlive all your competitors including Barbucks or whatever that other place is named.

My favorite local coffee spot in Escondido. Wonderful atmosphere, very friendly staff, good location, and quality products. I’ve really enjoyed my time every time I’ve come here.

I really enjoyed the turkey wrap that I ordered. I didn't know what to expect and it was really awesome. The wrap was rather large and cut into halves. It could be shared if you and a friend aren't too hungry. The veggies inside were fresh and delicious. The drink I had was refreshing and tasty. Unfortunately I don't remember the name but I believe it was lemonade with hibiscus tea.

Great not so little cafe with a roastary.Stopped here to get some work done on my way back to San Diego. I pick Chelsea's brain a little bit and she seem to know a lot about coffee and the espresso of the day. I ended up getting an Americano in a muffin muffin wasn't anything to call Home about but I'm assuming it's from a nearby bakery. The Americano was really good and the icing on the cake was definitely Chelsea's customer serviceDid you have an affogato with gelato from the place next-door I really wanted to try that but I didn't get a chanceI noticed the place was Pretty clean the few patrons either taking classes are working from home,As soon as I got up to leave a young lady came and clean my table so I'm sure they keep the place super clean all the time. I'm trying to add a picture but seems like the yelp app is tripping out right now

They make butterscotch lattes here! Oh, I'm in heaven! We also partook in the turkey sandwich, the strawberry lemonade, and the rose lemonade. The strawberry lemonade had crushed strawberries at the bottom - always a sign of quality. The rose lemonade was delicately-flavored, and not overwhelming. We asked that the turkey sandwich be toasted, a request that they obliged. It was perfect, and the condiments did not overtake the rest of the sandwich (topped with tomatoes, greens, and mustard).Bonus: they have cookies made by The Cravory. Yum!
