I would argue that this is one of the best coffee shops in California.I stopped in for a bite to eat and then I left with a loaf of bread. Let me tell you, this place just became my next addiction.The jam and butter biscuit was from heaven itself. They serve OLIPOP which is my FAVORITE drink to find at a coffee shop when I don’t want any more caffeine.I can’t wait to stop in again for more treats!For more reviews follow me here on google or on instagram @audrey.pulliam

Stopped by to try a loaf of bread based on solid reviews. Picked out the sour dough based rye loaf after the sweet girl at the counter suggested it. Very good quality and looking forward to trying the 100% rye flour loaf next time. The price was a bit on the excessive side but it located in laguna beach. They also have a loaf of challah for $15 a loaf but I'll give it a shot in the near future.

My favorite coffee shop in town. I come here for a little getaway from life ... to enjoy gorgeous bread, a good cup of coffee, sincere service and a cozy and calm atmosphere. Rye goods warms me up inside and out and is such a gem in our neighborhood.

An elevated Rye Goods experience! We love this location for days that we want to be by the beach. We have yet to try the meal options but I’m sure they are top notch just like their coffee and baked goods!

Rye Goods has been a godsend for Laguna. Great bread & pastries, fresh-milled heritage grain, slow-ferment sourdough, friendly, helpful staff. I am gluten-sensitive but tolerate Rye Goods baked goods much better than most commercial ones.

I am absolutely in love with this place. such good food, coffee, treats, and everyone who works here is so sweet and helpful! I try to come once a week usually on Saturdays to read and have a slow morning and it's the perfect place to chill. Sourdough & their bagel sandwich is 10/10 as well

The good: I got the breakfast yogurt parfait, an almond croissant, a granola cookie, a rosemary latte, and a Kringle. The almond croissant was very different than most I've had before. It had a denser and more layered texture with more spice flavors and less of the almond paste flavor. My daughter really enjoyed the granola chocolate chip cookie. I got this because our cashier seemed enthusiastic about it. He was friendly and had a contagious best friend type of energy. The $11 parfait was part of their breakfast menu (served until 11 am) and it had apples, Greek yogurt, flax seeds, a fruit compote and more. It was enjoyable and quite sweet. The appearance in color and the flavors were very autumnal. The latte art was great and the flavor was subtle. The interior is very modern, hip and simple. They sell sodas and jams that look organic, local or healthier. I liked their modern wooden table number sticks. The bad: The Kringle tasted as good as a Costco Danish. So, this isn't a bad thing necessarily because those are good but it was just a less interesting eat for me. When you walk inside from the back door the space to view the pastries is quite narrow. I wanted the seasonal cranberry vanilla latte but they ran out of cranberry syrup. The interesting: There's indoor and outdoor dining areas. The outdoor areas are both in the front and back alley space. I thought its discrete location sandwiched between a few other shops was cute and quaint.

Right when you walk in it has such a great feel. I wished I could remember her name but she just started working there 4/5 days ago. She was so helpful and truly seemed liked she cared. It was amazing to watch her multi task to keep the business flowing for all. Fyi, my husband said I chose the right olive oil, thank you!

Laguna Beach is awesome and little gems like this shop are what adds to it's charm. I stumbled upon this place by accident and just happened to need some bread for some clam chowder I was having that night. I thought I would give this place a try - the breads on display had beautiful crusts. The person behind the cash register was super helpful and helped me decide on a loaf based on what I was looking for. I got the country loaf - something without additional ingredients and I think the most popular. The bread that night was excellent - the crust was beautiful, perfect caramelization, with a deep mahogany hue. The crunchiness was perfect. The interior crumb was also great, airy, with a delightful chew and texture. Tender and moist. And the flavor - what a great tasting bread. In any case, I really enjoyed the bread here, lightly toasted with olive oil it made a perfect pairing with my clam chowder.

Ive been to the Newport location that was very good. This one had sad ambience.. very dark like no lights were on. We ordered the coffee chocolate croissant and the almond croissant. They both were stale as though they were baked days ago. The almond croissant tasted like full blown lemons. Idk if it was sitting next to a lemon cake or was baked next to it... but it was full blown lemon flavor.

Absolutely awful. We got an Americano and an iced coffee with Almond milk-both undrinkable. The plain bagel was hard as a rock similar to a hockey puck. The almond croissant was stale on the outside . We took one sip of the coffees, didn't bother biting into the bagel, and one bite of the croissant , and threw everything away. We then walked to BK Dot , which was amazing.
Kind staff. Fantastic baked goods. Captures Laguna Beach vibe.
