Coastal Coffee at 4077 Fifth Ave in Hillcrest serves as the dedicated espresso cart stationed outside the main entrance of Scripps Mercy Hospital, one of San Diego's major acute-care campuses in the 92103 ZIP code. The cart pours organic drip coffee and espresso drinks alongside fresh pastries and grab-and-go sandwiches, a quick-service format that complements the takeout approach at Grab & Go - Mission Hills nearby. Rotating baked goods include croissants, muffins, and wrapped snacks designed for hospital staff and visitors navigating compressed schedules between appointments. The espresso cart serves Scripps Mercy Hospital's medical staff, patients, and visitors at one of San Diego's busiest trauma centers, a healthcare-campus post that shares the Fifth Ave corridor with the scratch American kitchen at Common Stock on nearby Tenth Ave. The cart handles high-volume weekday morning rushes where espresso drinks and breakfast sandwiches move through the line for healthcare teams transitioning between overnight and daytime rotations.
