Host your next event at our cafe in downtown San Diego, featuring a variety of flavorful menu options. Each meal is made to order, with vegan and gluten-free choices to satisfy all guests. We ensure quality and taste in every bite.
Welcome to Chiefy Café, the Gaslamp Quarter’s one-and-only independent coffeehouse, where everyone feels like part of the neighborhood. We keep it cozy and laid-back with bagels, waffles, & more, plus treats for your pups. Our menu is all about variety: signature coffee blends for your mornings, açai bowls and vegan bites for light cravings, and hearty plates for when you’re really hungry. Chiefly, our beloved dog (and the café’s namesake), reminds us daily to keep things fun and dog-friendly - don’t forget to grab a Chiefaccino for your furry sidekick! Whether you’re swinging by at sunrise or popping in for a mid-afternoon recharge, we’ll have something tasty waiting for you.
As locals who live downtown, my husband and I stop by here for our coffee multiple times a week. The staff is so friendly and always has a pup cup ready for our dog without us even having to ask. The coffee is wonderful, the staff is quick and personable - could not recommend more!
We stopped by on a weekday morning and had the acai bowl, keto salad, and almond croissant. Everything came out fast and was so delicious, especially the acai bowl!! There was outdoor seating for us to sit with our dog too. Just a really great breakfast.
Had a great breakfast at Chiefy Cafe, so good in fact we returned on the last day of our trip. Fun espresso concoctions paired with fresh and creative takes on breakfast standards elevated the typical coffee and pastry experience.
I go to Chiefy Cafe nearly every weekend for a coffee and a bite to eat. The staff here are very kind and they always make sure to ask what kind of milk I want in my drink. It is obvious that the owners strive to provide the best ingredients in all of their menu items. I also enjoy the dog friendly store front.
