Coffee

We invite you to take a self- guided tour of El Cajon Boulevard’s vibrant coffee culture.

The Boulevard is home to a number of incredible cafés, from specialty coffee roasters to traditional Ethiopian (widely considered to be the epicenter of where coffee originated). As you explore these diverse cafés along The Boulevard, you’ll experience a mix of flavors and atmospheres. Each stop offers a unique glimpse into the traditions of coffee and the individual local character of each café.

In addition to experiencing what each café has to offer from the regular menu, many will be offering specials, so make sure to mention you’re visiting as part of The Boulevard Coffee Tour. Plus, some cafe’s will be offering educational opportunities to learn about flavor profiles, roast levels and brewing techniques.

Check the El Cajon Boulevard Instagram for other tour-related activities and contests.
