The service is consistently fast and friendly. The coffee is always robust, flavorful and smooth, and the Avocado Tomato breakfast sandwich is seriously the BEST breakfast sandwich ever, Im addicted!!

Their acai bowl. If I wanted granola and fruits dumped into a bowl I could have gotten to Trader Joes for that. Theres barely any acai in there. I dont want to choke on a mouthful of granola.

I stopped in the middle of breakfast to write this review. Gladly Coffee has brought their game to a level that I have never experienced in a drive thru window. After my favorite breakfast sandwich, Mr. AvoTom 🤤 I decided to treat myself and ordered the cookie butter overnight oats on a whim. I ate a bite and QUICKLY realized the wonderful gift I had ordered myself. Now I am not exaggerating in any way when I say that i watched a warm cookie butter lava flow slide down into my warm oats. My coffee is ALWAYS on point, but holy moly these oats are magic!!!!

I understand things have to change. I grew up in spring valley. BUT I would never step into this establishment. It used to be a mortuary. The last time I saw my grandpa was here at his last viewing. How many souls are in this place. Just horrible😒

Found this place thanks for Google. My friend and I tried the Bees Knees blended and are 100% hooked! Absolutely delicious! The drive thru moves pretty quickly but I’m looking forward to this spot being open for people soon so I can check out the inside. Cannot wait for our next visit! 🤤 ☕️

I love this coffee shop! Im obsessed with their Dirty Harry Blended Cold Brews! You must try it out! Drive-thru is quick even when the line is long and all the staff are so wonderful and friendly! Even though their location isnt super close to where I live, I drive a bit out of my way to go!

Awesome service and even more awesome coffee! Great atmosphere, you can breathe in here! Very spacious w high ceilings. Lots of areas to sit, couches, chairs, stools, and free WiFi. I got iced coffee w coconut milk and hazelnut syrup. They also gave me a sample of their Dirty Harry, it was really good, I’ll get that next time for sure! New owners are super nice and you can tell they care about the details, perfect coffee shop!

Review №14

The drip coffee had a weird flavor that was like the coffee filter hadnt been changed in a few hours, and the avocado bagel with chorizo that I had was salty at times. Overall, though, the convenience and price of the food and drinks we got were acceptable, thank you!

My daughters favorite cup. I heard her brag about it for two years. Finally came to San Diego and tried it. I was not disappointed, a great roast without any char like that big brand. #eatlocal

I just came here with some of my cousins and my aunt and uncle on 6/21/21 and it was delicious! I got a banana smoothie for me and my sister and I really enjoyed it! I’m pretty sure everyone enjoyed their food/drinks. My aunt on keto really enjoyed her açaí bowl! I will for sure be recommending this place and be coming back!

Just wow and amazing. This place is amazing. Always have the best costumer service and the food is good. I always get the chipotle BLTA bagel and its really good. Along with wither a Dirty Harry latte or strawberry and banana smoothie. This is my favorite breakfast place by far. Always come here and have never had an issue.

Review №21

I’ve been here a few times now and I’m addicted. The Avo Tom sandwich is delicious. I prefer to substitute the creamy cilantro sauce for their chipotle sauce instead. My husband does not like the taste of coffee but he loved the salted caramel cold brew. The Bees Knees blended cold brew is very good (I tried it iced as well but preferred the blended version) and the Dirty Harry latte is also amazing. I’m looking forward to trying their other drinks and hopefully their holiday edition drinks as well.

Decided to try this place out rather than go to the normal Starbucks. Glad I did. Been almost everyday this week, never disappointed in the fraps (blended drinks as they call it)

Review №25

I love this place! Such fast service always and really delicious food. My only complaint is that there really isn’t a healthy smoothie option. The three smoothies they have are extremely sweet and spike my sugar levels. Please add a healthy green protein smoothie to your menu!!

Ka
Review №26

Creative, delicious drinks. The coffee is always good, they even have cortados. The know how to make all the espresso drinks properly and deliciously! Go here!! The non coffee drinks, which I rarely get, are always delicious and healthy! I had their apple cider last fall, and it was so full of flavor, and I just had this iced drink with hibiscus in it and a whole bunch of other ingredients, and that was full of flavor too! They are so humble and passionate about their coffee shop. This is my favorite coffee shop in all of San Diego, and I have been to so many. The guy who takes your order in the drive thru is so friendly, too. They know what excellence is.

So this was a random stop we made after CVS I just wanted some coffee and then got one of the bagel sandwiches oh my god I don’t think there are words to express how like mouth watering and amazing this sandwich was, it blew my mind I had never heard of this company if I didn’t live so far away this would be my breakfast every morning or brunch on Sunday guaranteed. If you’re close stop by and get some you will not be disappointed

Review №30

The 3-star rating is almost unfair but so was the realization this morning that only the drive-thru was open. The parking lot was full and difficult to enter because the drive-thru line blocked the entrance. We tried to coordinate the logistics of our small group ordering our coffee and morning snacks thru the drive-thru and then parking and sitting in the patio but it was easier to just go to Starbucks. 😕

Im not the biggest fan of the drinks because I feel like they are always too sweet or too bitter for me, but the food is just *chefs kiss* so good.

No seriously go get in your car and grab some coffee.My gf and I we stopped by here on a whim and this coffee joint did not disappoint!Order a dirty hairy latteAnd a bees knees BCBTwo sips into each and we were smitten with glee. These drinks are made properly and wonderfully.We will be back!

Great location, plenty of parking. Great atmosphere, with lots of space inside and out. Cool, modern decour. Amazing smoothies, frappes and food! Mocha frappe, strawberry and banana smoothie are both to die for. They have almond milk as an alternative with no extra charge. Their sandwiches are yummy! Free wifi!!! The customer service is also fantastic! You always feel welcome. Also they have a drive thru!!

On Thanksgiving day 2020, I want to publicly express gratitude for this fun, elegant and feisty coffee house in my neighborhood. From the relentlessly positive owner to the friendly staff, creative menu and the craft espresso, this place is a local favorite. Thank you Gladly for bringing unity and warmth to the neighborhood. From the lavender latte lady.

Review №39

I really want to like this please because it’s my neighborhood coffee shop but their menu and flavors could use some improvement.Everything that isn’t black coffee has insane amounts of sugar in it, that can’t be removed from the drink without losing the flavor completely.I would love to see some unsweetened chai or literally any other option of a flavored drink without sugar.Their food is great though! Well made basic coffee shop food but it is consistently good.

Friendly staff and ownership. Prior to 2020 I spent lots of time in this location conducting group meetings. Seating is flexible and food is good. Downside is the location acoustics can be loud making discussion difficult. With that said the staff always lowered music volume upon my requests.A+ Support local

Review №46

There are not nearly enough local coffee joints in this part of town, I would much rather support a local coffee shop than give Starbucks my money, and I’ve always enjoyed the charm of a quaint local spot. For these reasons, I was utterly thrilled when I found Gladly!!! The drive-thru is quick, customer service is top-notch (and I ask a LOT of questions, I’m not an easy customer lol), and their drinks and food are amazing. You should absolutely support this awesome coffee shop!!! Açaí bowls are 🔥 Coffee is 🔥

Review №47

Very large coffee shop in Casa De Oro with a drive-thru. Interesting space too! I think it use to be a bank.Staff was very friendly to me and all other guests. Coffee was fresh and nice quality.Coffee menu is pretty standard for most coffee shops. Espresso drinks, pour over, drip etc..Food menu was pretty deep and surprisingly affordable. For example breakfast sandwich is $4.50 and lunch items are less than $6.Free WiFi but not the strongest.

Review №48

I absolutely love this place! Friendly service, right off the 94, with a drive through, and the drinks are reasonably priced but taste exponentially better than Starbucks drinks. Great space inside with a kid area, comfortable seating, and fantastic blended cold brew drinks! My usual order is a blended cold brew (way better than Starbucks!) with sugar-free hazelnut, and a Chipotle BLTA bagel, although Im fussy and get it without the tomato, chipotle, or mayonnaise.....so maybe its more of a toasted, buttered bagel with tons of arugula, fresh avocado, and crispy bacon. It is just fantastic! They have a HUGE selection of pastries--ask in the drive-thru, and theyll give you a rundown of everything they have available on a given morning. I also LOVE the overnight oats, warm and comforting with a berry compote and peanut or almond butter. So good.

This place is fantastic! I finally tried it. Had two coffees: the iced mocha and their bee latte. I needed to try more after having the one. My husband had their chai tea. We also each had their ultimate breakfast sandwich. So good!! We will definitely be coming back! The prices are reasonable and everything tastes fresh and delicious!Edit: I have now has their Dirty Harry special, chocolate mocha, vanilla latte, iced black tea, and cookie butter - I have not yet had a coffee I didn’t like or wasn’t impressed with. I love this place!

Great place for a Breakfast sandwich. Been going daily for a few weeks. Simply easy and breakfast is GREAT. The new owners are so much better, no more dogs running all around laying on couches jumping on food counters dog hair in food. Nice new set up and food is better. Try the Turkey sandwich its great. I think the new owner is on track to set up a nice local restaurant. I do recommend Butlers to everyone. 🚀

Great coffee. Nice breakfast and lunch sandwiches. Lovely place to hang out. They have comfortable chairs, books and games for kids, and I believe the family owned business is Christian. I would rather support them than snooty, overrated, Starbucks (who supports and promotes a different agenda)

My husband and I decided to try Butlers Coffee House for the first time this morning. First, I have to say the decor is open and airy and charming.

Review №79

Im really not crazy about the typical cold industrial look in so many places, but Butlers succeeds because of the addition of texture and softness of sofas and upholstered chairs. It makes a huge difference if youre there to relax and meet friends. If you want a work space, they have that, too, though. The staff is welcoming and friendly, and the items they sell are reasonably priced. I come back to Butlers time and time again for all these reasons.

Blended coffee was sooooo good. I got the hazelnut but it was a little bit sweet.

Je
Review №81

Maybe a 4.8. I got a mocha frap and it was overly loaded with chocolate syrup - but it wasn’t too bad. Couldn’t taste it so it wasn’t like the cheap chocolate. Overall very good and coffee taste wasn’t bland, it was medium strong. Very open layout and for the most part clean. Could use a mini vacuum to clean the couches since they were all suede or cloth. But nothing too bad. Maybe add some books or magazines would make it less empty inside. Nice choice in furniture though. Love the little stage, could eventually do a mic night/morning for musicians. Very relaxing environment! Especially for a one year old who just wants to walk around.

Pros:- Standard menu, but great flavors!- SPACIOUS; the decor is different in a very good way- Variety of seating (tables, bar style, couches, etc)- They have a small kids area.- Jordan; by far the best service Ive ever received from someone taking my order. I dont know what it was, but he just seemed gentle and kind and caring and now I sound weird.Cons:- Not open late (this is a great place for studying, so thats why its a con for me)My recommendation:Acai bowl! Small but flavorful and delicious.

Butlers is a great place to work and study with excellent coffee, smoothies, sandwiches and more. Not noisy like other mass-market cafes, and there is even a kids corner where moms and dads can take a load off while the kiddos play. Oh, one of my favorite things: this is a local business, so I always feel good about spending my money here. Thanks Butlers!

The latte I had was very home made taste. And also had a sandwich with a weird name that I cant remember but it had bacon avocado eggs and a cilantro pesto. Very good, I did the drive thru but peeked inside thru the window and it looked nice. Very inviting! I wish it wasnt out of my way as much as it is
