A Lot of Light in a Little Cup™
Since 2019, The Coffee Cart San Diego has brought joy, warmth, and expertly crafted espresso to corporate events and gatherings across San Diego. In 2022, we expanded into brick-and-mortar with the opening of our first specialty coffee shop in the heart of San Diego’s biotech hub, Sorrento Valley, now home to The Coffee Cart Café.
