Wake up and ‘Swell’ the Coffee!

A few months ago, The Patio Restaurant Group formed a partnership with the Mission Beach-based Swell Café to bring customers the best, locally roasted coffee in San Diego. Don’t just take our word for it; Swell Café was voted “Best Coffee in San Diego” by San Diego Magazine this year. The Patio on Lamont Street currently features a signature blend of coffee from Swell containing a mix of Colombian, Guatemalan and Ethiopian beans. It’s called the “Piazza” blend. It’s available at the restaurant for purchase or at The Swell Café.

If specialty coffee drinks are more your style, look no further. The Patio is serving up cappuccinos, lattes and mochas for $4. Or, if you’re in the mood for something more adventurous, try our a Faux-Tella Coffee, made with Hazelnut Bailey’s, Godiva Milk Chocolate, coffee, whipped cream, and hazelnut. It’s perfect for fall as the nights grow cooler!

The Patio on Lamont Street is currently open every day at 9 a.m. Stop by for breakfast and experi- ence the coffee everyone is talking about!

SAVORING THE TASTE More than 400 guests, including these guests at Jose's Restaurante Mexicano, took part in the 14th annual Taste of La Jolla, a benefit for programs at La Jolla High School.
