I wasn't immediately a fan of the Bump Coffee truck appearing in the morning marine layer fog, moving up and down the 101, but when they moved into their space in Cardiff, and then a second in Leucadia, I changed my tune a bit. The menu was (and is) simple. If you wanted a hot, black pourover, the five (to ten) minute wait was well spent chomping on an empanada and petting a neighborhood pup. Keep it simple. Keep it Bump.
I considered it bonus Life Points on the days we went to Leucadia for a breakfast empanada and coffee at Bump, and then swung back around for neighboring Haggo's Tacos at lunch.
