National City, California — The vintage car parts for sale in a display cabinet near the entrance are the first indication Esquina Vintage and Coffee is not your average coffee shop. Located on the esquina, or corner, of National City Boulevard and Seventh Street, the new coffee spot is unique for a number of reasons. It is the lone mom-and-pop coffee shop in a city where the only other option for coffee is Starbucks. The menu features traditional Mexican offerings, including cafe de la olla (coffee) and pan dulce (bread), as well as new-fashioned drinks such as ginger cucumber lemonade.
