"At least that’s the government’s position, despite the fear and misgivings of some in our citizenry. I’m not here to settle that discussion from any public policy standpoint. But I am here to say that cookies have been essential to my own well-being, while at home in isolation."

"We start this list of best coffee shops in San Diego with Copa Vida because their shop on West Broadway Street is exactly what we described in this article’s introduction. It is right in the city center but secluded from the main street, so you will be able to watch the crowds go by and let waves of San Diego’s energy wash over you from a safe distance. Apart from many excellent types of coffee, however, you can choose between numerous varieties of tea too if you fancy something with a bit less caffeine in it."
"Copa Vida is more than a series of beautifully curated coffee shops, bookable coffee carts and a catering business, it is an authentic, welcoming hub for the neighborhoods it inhabits in both Los Angeles and San Diego. Besides the supremely delicious coffee brewed to suit a wide variety of palettes, the bread is baked in-house and the menu is simple and delicious, served everyday from 7am-11am with a brunch on Saturday and Sundays from 8am-3pm."
