Cafe 102

Went there for the 1^st time. .And Wow !!! I wish I could live there.. everything was on point.

From a woman’s perspective it’s pretty average. But I guess this place does so well bc their employees are 87% naked. & their employees are all women. Aside from that they are super friendly, they talk with all the customers about anything.
I probably should have checked the reviews bc there are tons of pictures. As soon as I walked in I was the only woman customer & I was alone. Pretty awkward.
Coffee is good, just not my thing to watch almost naked women waitress.
Also the customers & employees smoking in the shop was a huge negative.

I’ll give them credit for thinking outside the box. You will love it or hate it or get crabs for the second time.

Super strong viet coffee! Great shop and the girls are hot. We always come the hottest girl there, Jade!

I recently discovered this place in San Diego. Vietnamease coffee shops are pretty popular in San Jose and Orange County. It’s like a hooters with strong coffee. The girls here are not stuck up like girls at Café Lu in Orange County. I will go again if I need my hot girl fix, I mean coffee fix!

It’s exactly what you think it is.
Strong but undersized drinks, continuous smoking by patrons and ‘entertainers’ despite the plentiful «No Smoking» signs.
Overall, meh.

I didn’t mind this place. they have healthy drink options besides coffee. Staff is extremely friendly. definitely a place for an old asian guy who enjoys that casino atmosphere without the casino. Expect smokers.

Sort of a hit or miss place. One somedays, the girls are friendly, some days, they aren’t. They allow smoking and eating take-​out (rather strong smell for a chilled coffee place). Viet style coffee is good.

Great coffee shop. I usually go to the ones up in OC, but now that theres one closer, I’ll be coming around more often.

GOOD: nice place to chill and relax.
BAD: I wish this place have a MENU. This will be a lot easier instead of a small chalkboard on the wall.
OVERALL: this place can give ⁵⁰⁄₅₀ depending on your mood and even though people smoke cigarettes and e-​vaps. I wish I can bring my own hookah set but oh well but they don’t allow it.

I was told about this place from various sources. Never knew a place like this existed. To sum it up, bikini clad women (majority of them Asian, but they are hiring a mix of girls) serve you Vietnamese style coffee and beer. It doubles as a place to buy Lotto. Came in on a Tuesday mid morning trek. Had the Vietnamese iced coffee for $ 5. Surprisingly it was good. There’s a lot of smoke here due to the smokers vaping and lighting up. The area this place is in isn’t exactly La Jolla either. I would opt to come here early in the day rather then at night to be safe. Strong coffee, the ladies who served us were friendly, and it was a cool spot to chill out. If you get served by Alex or Desiree tip them well (two of the finest servers there).

Come for the coffee, stay for the beautiful scenery? The good: attractive attentive staff, lottery tickets, complimentary coffee, tea or water. The bad: smells like smoke, some shady looking characters hang out here, They don’t offer much in the way of choices. The menu only has maybe a dozen items. I will go back here again next time I wish to purchase some lottery tickets. It’s certainly got a better view than the local liquor store.

I’ve heard of Café Lue in OC, but I didn’t believe my friend when he said that San Diego had a similar place. I had to see it with my own eyes, mostly bc I suspected the girls to be beat. To my surprise they were gorgeous. I kinda looked like an older butch lesbian in comparison. The beers were $ 5. Service was okay, but that’s not really the reason that you would go here. Lots of old Asian men were playing Keno and the young guys were wearing beanies and glasses. It was kinda hilarious just to observe all the social interactions.
Heads up: cash only!

Cool place to hangout great coffee and the girls are beautiful. a must see destination!

Don’t really understand the appeal of this place.
The coffee was good, but it was also $ 5 for a glass that was mainly ice, and they really don’t have anything other than coffee, tea, and a couple different smoothies. No food or anything. The girls were all very friendly AND ATTRACTIVE, but at the same time I’m not sure why they’re all in bikinis if they just serve coffee (I’m not complaining tho). You also get some creepy old guys l who hang out there for way too long.

This place is nice to chill, the girls are nice. Got a chance to chat with Christine really nice girl… Love her tattoos. The coffee was good, Living in O.C. Come sometimes to visit, and this the only place close to O.C. Coffee shops.

My friends told me that they wanted to get coffee so I assumed that we were going to Starbucks but upon entering the parking lot, I did not see a Starbucks, and saw a Café 102. When we entered inside, I saw televisions, Vietnamese coffee and servers in bikinis! Here are my thoughts:
What I ordered: Vietnamese coffee.
Pros:
–The coffee is priced at $ 4.
–I am still up, and writing this review so the coffee is potent.
–Nice and talkative servers.
–Good place to hang out if you want to watch sports in a unique atmosphere.
Conclusion: Check it out and experience good coffee with good looking servers!

The best place in SD. High quality coffee and the waitress are supermodels!!!
Clean nice place and the people there are really nice. Many flat screens and you feel like your in Paradise. There is no place like it!

Whoever decorated this place did a really good job because it’s really modern, spacious, and clean. More upgraded than your average Vietnamese coffee shop.
Don’t be mistaken by the «café» sign — this is a Vietnamese coffee (and now serves alcohol) shop, not a café eating place.
Vietnamese coffees are really strong, one will keep you up the entire day. Coffee here is $ 5, it may sound expensive but it’s made fresh. The smoothies are also made fresh with fresh fruits, delicious!
Now let’s get down to the reason why this coffee shop stands out more than other coffee shops — the ladies who work here.
The girls who work here are HOT, a mix of different races and cultures. They sit down with you and talk to you and make you feel at home.
I stop by to play the lotto (hotspot), and have a coffee, and/​or sometimes a smoothie. I also got to meet with the owner of this place and she’s really friendly, really gets to know each one of her customers, and remembers every single one of them.

Love the girls but more importantly I love the COFFEE they serve. Be careful, this will keep you up all night, Vietnamese coffee is like crack… You have it once and you have to keep going back for more.
Love you girls.
