Party of 2 went for lunch on a Monday in November. The cafe is spacious and has free WiFi, so quite a few people were working on their laptops from this place. You order at the counter and pay first, then they bring the food to you. They also have outdoor seating which was pretty pleasant. There's a pool table and some large screens with sports running on them. I had the kale caesar wrap with grilled chicken. The sandwiches come with a complimentary side for which I picked the side salad. The food was delicious and good quantity too. The restroom is clean, but a bit tucked into the building, so you have to ask the staff for directions. Total including tips and taxes came to just under 20 bucks.

Oliver Cafe is good supplement to the surrounding offices, It is a good place to meet friends or to have a team meeting. There is not many choices in the cafe, and the cafe only opens in Saturday from 8:30 to 11:30 am

I went hoping for a nice lunch while I work. My friend and I spent nearly $50 on mediocre food and coffee. The food is filled with cheap “fillers” like tomato to keep the portions of the better ingredients smaller. What they’re calling a “caesar salad” has no resemblance to a caesar except maybe… romaine? None of the other ingredients have anything to do with a caesar salad. The entree portions are small for the price, but they give you a large side (that I would rather not have) to keep the price point up. My latte was bland. There’s no air conditioning, so it’s rather warm. The thing that took my experience from 2-3 stars down to 1 was the behavior or other customers. Because this building is basically a huge garage, sound carries. There was a couple “studying” next to me, and apparently they knew someone seated at another table so they were basically shouting talking to each other, and then the couple spent the rest of the time I was there loudly on face time with another one of their friends. The person on my other side basically had his bag in my seat (the booth stretches across the room) and wouldn’t move it, along with taking up a table for 4 alone when there was clearly a group of girls nearly who were trying to squeeze at a table for 2. The service is also not very good. The lady at the counter acted like it was the biggest inconvenience that I wanted to see the coffee menu since it’s not on display where you order your food. You also have to bus your own plates, which alone isn’t a big deal, but along with everything else, it’s just a negative experience all around.

I love this great cafe and hang out spot. I came for breakfast and worked for a while using the free wifi. The coffee was great (horchata latte was amazing). The breakfast burrito was big sized. I probably could have split it with my girlfriend and been satisfied. The service was superb. The barista immediately helped me reprint my receipt, even remembering my order by memory. The gentleman changed my cash with his own money so that I could tip (he didn't know why). The vibes here are really chill with a great outdoor space also.

Food is great! Try the avocado toast! Plus you get to play pool!
This looks like a branch of Moongoat. Coffee was good but my latte was way too hot. The spot is cool. Big open space and they have couches and more lounge seating with big TVs playing news and sports. Cool spot if you want to work from a cafe. It’s in the middle of a business park which is cool if you work in the complex. I have come here multiple times. The churro latte is nice if you want a sweet treat

This is really a hidden gem.
Great place but…it’s chilly inside. Pls close the garage doors and install a ventilation system!
Very good food. Cool and breezy atmosphere.. outdoors.
Great for work/study. Wifi & power outlets available. Coffee decently priced, food was okay. Service was excellent, very friendly & helpful staff. Lots of free parking. Bathrooms easily accessible down the hall
Temp employee here. I was working here for a few days via a job agency and this job has made me the happiest and most motivated in a long time that I’ve been working at the hospitality industry
Their food is amazing the atmosphere can cure my depression I am extremely jealous of Sega of America and Twitch Irvine, who gets to eat here often I will literally plan to come here on an off day just to chill there I haven’t felt this relaxed and happy at a cafe in a long time brings Starbucks to shame for coffee place standards
