Couldnt give me basic information about who the General Manager is... Nonetheless, I asked to speak with a supervisor. Her response was There is no supervisor. So, at this point Im scratching my head, wondering who watches the employees to make sure everything is running smoothly. My next question was asking for her name, for which she replied, I dont share information like that. Now, all Im trying to do is figure out who I can contact for a job inquiry. Lets just say Ill be searching for a job elsewhere... What HORRIBLE customer service! I have yet to find a business that cant give out general information as to; who a Supervisor/General Manager is. What if I had a genuine complaint about an order I had just received? Im still wondering if this conversation was a joke or not... Take this one star of wisdom, and teach your employees some basic manners!-Time and Date was Nov. 2nd 2021, at approx. 1:35 p.m .

These are probably the best pancakes I’ve ever had. Their website says that they are made fresh that day, I can tell. My photos may not be the best, but they are so fluffy and have a great taste. I’m looking forward to trying other menu items. Today I just had a pancake craving and I got lucky with these 👌🏽They are also super quick, made in under 10 min.Can I have the recipe? 😄

WONDERFUL PLACE!!!! The food was so fresh and delicious and the cafe itself is so inviting and beautifully decorated, with cute front patio, very kind and helpful staff, plus we got to meet the very kind owner!! Great variety of items for breakfast, plus DELICIOUS BREAKFAST SANDWICHES!!! My husband absolutely loved his (sourdough, egg, and cheese with bacon) and he especially loved that they served gourmet tater tots with it! THIS IS A BREAKFAST GEM!! so happy we found it!!! We are excited to come back to try their pancakes!!! 😍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great place to have breakfast. Awesome service, very polite. I liked a lot about this place but one thing I loved are the pancakes. You can tell the difference with these freshly made pancakes.

Decent food and ambience. The pesto chicken sandwich was good. The place was clean and quaint.My only criticism is that it took a long time for the food to arrive.

Food was 3.5/5. Coffee 5/5. Cafe style, so you order and pay up front, thrn you food is brought out to you. Self serve coffee (must pay) and water. Plenty of seating, t.v. for news. Staff seemed nice and relatively quick with service.

Wonderful option for breakfast in the area. Costumer service is to notch. I had the bagel Sunrise and it was very tasty toasted to perfection, it tasted fresh made. The fruit was fresh and juicy. They offer coffee bar with excellent selections. Its a small place and thus they may have wait but, take it to go, or wait, it is well worth it

Food is mostly good but efficiency needs to improve significantly. Waited almost an hour today and i think they hadnt even prepared the order when my partner (who was late to work) went to ask what was going on. Hope this is a non-issue next time..

Staying at a nearby hotel and a quick search for breakfast places reveled this nearby gem. Was advertised to open at 9 am but was a little late to open today. Walked in a placed my order at the counter and grabbed a seat. Had the meat omelette and a large OJ for $18 and some change. Service was quick and my omelette hit the spot.

I love this place! Great aesthetic vibes, very hip. I come here to study and there is plenty of seats and outlets. On Saturdays, I would say get here by 10:30am to be guaranteed a spot! It doesnt get that loud here (prolly because the cafe is very spacious). The parking lot is HUGE-which Im very grateful for because thats always my concern when I go out. The staff arealso really friendly!

Its fine. The bagel with lox was only good, not great. The fruit bowl was bland and the melon had rind on the edges, so, yuck. Good coffee and pleasant enough vibe. But I probably wouldnt come here again it go out of my way.

Thank you for the email regarding my rating. If you hadnt replied, I wouldve never known what a terrible mistake I had made. I honestly dont recall posting that rating. I love 7 Cafe and cant tell you enough how much your needed in downtown San Diego. The atmosphere, staff & top quality menu items, keep me coming back. I sincerely apologize and I look forward to being a life-long customer. Happy Holidays!

Amazing food And even better service. We had the red chilaqilles and a breakfast sandwich with tater tots. The food took a baby bit to come out but the chef was kind enough to come out and chat with us regarding how everything is made right when you order it. No hot plates with food sitting around for days. Everything is fresh and made from scratch! Best Mexican food we have had in San Diego! Staff are all warm and welcoming! Spanish speaking as well! :) two thumbs up!

We stayed a couple of days in San Diego and followed the advice of Yelp. It did not disappoint us, whatsoever. I ordered the everything bagel breakfast sandwich which had egg and bacon with a side of fruit. My son ordered the Greek omelet and it blew his mind. After I tried it I was in aw, I’ve never had that combination but it was so good! The ambiance is excellent and the staff is so nice especially when my 4 year old got upset the owner came over and tried to console her. So awesome. I would definitely go back when in the area!

Very healthy options - Im most familiar with breakfast - egg white wraps, whole wheat english muffins, sub avocado for meat. but the wraps, salads and sandwiches are great too. they also have GREAT baked goods - the muffins coming out of the oven in the mornings are so tempting. Allow some time tho - food is fresh and may take a bit. not horribly long, just dont be rushing.

Lunch special for 7.50, half sandwich and soup. One tiny slice of turkey on my sandwich and the chicken noodle soup was coated with a giant layer of grease and not one piece of chicken in it. Gross. Wont be back, disapointing because my co-workers recommended it. Maybe it was just a fluke but never coming back.

Review №58

I have never been ripped off this bad in my life. We ordered the Pesto wrap and Pesto sandwich. It was nearly 20$ for the two. The amount of chicken in this thing was pathetic. They purposely put the chicken in the front so it looked good at first, THIS IS BLATANTLY UNETHICAL. It was basically toast. The Pesto was not actual Pesto, it was green Mayo. It says Aioli yes but it was gross. The wrap was filled with Lettuce and had almost no chicken. It was lettuce and a tortilla for 10$. I almost walked 5 blocks back to this place to demand my money back. There were no sundried tomatoes either, which is one of the reasons we ordered the sandwiches in the first place. Do not go here. They blatantly rip you off. I have no idea how this place has such decent reviews.

Tried to order off their online menu. Called and was given 4 separate prices. Lady who answered claimed to not know about an online menu. Clearly some type of scam to quote different prices to unsuspecting visitors.
