"Mostra" is Italian for "show, exhibition or performance" and the four friends who founded Mostra certainly put on a show as they strive for excellence in serving coffee with a mission to make a difference both locally and globally. They source and roast high quality beans from the Philippines which I didn't realize was such a great growing region. Their head roaster, Nick Berardi was named the 2020 Micro Roaster of the Year - as in #1 in the US! Pretty darn impressive!
This place has a cool, coffeehouse vibe with an eclectic decor. The juxtaposition of the high ceilings, exposed ductwork and distressed floors with ornate woodwork around the small two-person cushioned alcove booths makes for an inviting spot to enjoy some amazing coffee. There's a long communal table and benches in the center, with a number of smaller tables and the alcove seating.
On my last visit, the super helpful barista helped with my debate between the campfire mocha and the crème brûlée latte, with the latter winning out. Opting for skim milk and half sweet was perfect for my taste! I look forward to trying out everything but honestly, I've thoroughly enjoyed just a cup of their regular coffee - it's sooo good. Note: these crafted drinks take time so grab a seat, relax and enjoy the Mostra experience!

Friendly baristas, high quality coffee, and a nice Lil filipino twist on coffee. I had the ube late and added a shot of espresso while the wifey had the bibingka creme brulee. They have multiple locations across sandiego and all locations are esthetically pleasing. They are aesthetically different per location so I suggest checking them all out. Great place to bring someone visiting San diego or to bring your filipino parents to try some coffee other than folgers or tasters choice lol.
The staff are very nice and the service is fast. The price is good, and I like the hot coffee I ordered. I will definitely back to this coffee place.

Quality coffee in north county San Diego!
Mostra Coffee is unique and inventive, and has some of the best coffee around. After all, they were named the 2020 Roaster of the Year by Roast Magazine.
As I made my way through the doors to Mostra Coffee, I was immediately enveloped by the welcoming and mood-enhancing aroma of their freshly brewed coffee. And then my eyes were drawn to the beautiful floral artwork on the digital menu board and the large letters along the large wall that define what Mostra means.
Truly, Mostra is nothing short of a winning performance because their coffee has great body. Of course, the packaging was super cute - I had to buy both Ghost Bear and Yellow Catuai.
At the shop, I ordered a cup of their signature hot Bibingka Crème Brûlée Latte and Turon Crème Brûlée Latte. Surprisingly, I enjoyed the Turon Crème Brûlée Latte - and I am usually not big on Turon or jackfruit. Both were delicious!
I would love to come back and try their Campfire Mocha or the Blueberry Pancakes Latte.
If you want to try what a winning coffee tastes like, head over to Mostra Coffee. (You’re welcome!)
Very busy but everything was made quickly and perfectly. Two baristas were working when I was there and the line was to the door, but the drinks were flying out. Extremely impressive effort by the two ladies. The vibes are good and the Brazil cold brew was excellent. Free with a bag of coffee purchased!
Prices on the board were a bit high I thought but I can tell that these people know their coffee!
Mostra gas great coffee and a blend of traditional and signature coffee drinks. Things are well done and they won micro roaster of the year in 2020. Prices are pretty high and the space isn't very comfortable for long stays and can get loud. Also 3.75 for an espresso is wild.
We love this local craft coffee store. The staff are really friendly and efficient. We got the turon cappuccino and it has that turon banana flavor. The toppings were crunchy and added the extra umph to the delicious coffee.
Defintely one of the best coffee beans I’ve ever tasted!
I love the aroma and notes of this coffee. I brewed espresso shot, cappucino, and latte with this pack, and It tasted like dark chocolate with a hint of wine. “Magaling at Masarap!” Keep it up!
Great coffee! Ordered the Campfire and it was delicious. Has a strong dark chocolate taste and not super sweet. It was delicious.
Was just going to stop by and grab a cup but the atmosphere was so cool I got my laptop out of the car and started working. Super chill place to have coffee and work remote.
Really lovely little coffee shop in a great shopping plaza. The decor creates a great ambiance. The service was quick even though they were busy. The seating is diverse. And the lavender latte is 🤌🏽. Will definitely be back.
