50 Best Coffee Shops near Rancho Mission Viejo

“This coffee is amazing. I live in Kentucky and the coffee i received was well packaged and very very fresh and packaged air tight. way better than the big store chain. I was on a search to find a very low caffeine coffee that tastes o.k. and I found it! It tastes wonderful.“

“Great NY STYLE BAGELS!!! Great service too“

“A true hidden gem here in Laguna Niguel. Wide selection of beans and roast levels to choose from. Beans are roasted onsite. Staff is top notch and are happy to explain all the choices available. I always come here for the whole beans but they do have a small selection of coffee available to enjoy there or to go. Outdoor seating is available. A+ customer service! For all the espresso aficionados out there, don’t miss this place!“

“The breakfast sandwich is absolutely incredible. Just a meld of flavors that I couldn’t replicate if I tried. Excited to try more food when I’m back in the area, and Tim is so kind and clearly takes pride in everything that he makes. A delicious sandwich and lovely experience!“

“Don't listen to the lonely negative review! I get my bowl made to my preference every time (unlike Craig Peters' post below). The staff ALWAYS respects my request to substitute blueberries for strawberries due to allergic reactions. Delicious and healthy, and never a hassle.“

“This coffee shop is truly a hidden gem. But interestingly enough, lots of people have found it. This shop has lots of traffic and offers excellent coffee. Ordered a latte as well as a flat white and both drinks were great. Staff were knowledgeable and friendly. Great atmosphere!“

“Aloha Açaí is absolutely amazing! From the moment you walk in, the energy is so welcoming and refreshing..you instantly feel at home. The bowls are vibrant, fresh, and packed with flavor, and it’s the perfect spot to slow down, relax, and just get lost for an afternoon.

It’s more than just a place to eat..it’s an experience that leaves you feeling nourished and uplifted. 🌺✨“

“Listen heroes, every person is hustling to serve the customer well. The bathroom is basically edible and I could eat off any section of it. I was served by a lovely gal named Christian who has a smile as big as a house. The great baristas behind the counter made my drink in like 3 seconds. Highly recommend. Will be back as I come through here for work.“

“The employees are very friendly and accommodating. I recommend this place to anyone who loves coffee.“

“Chocobean is my favorite way to start the day! The coffee is always fantastic — the toasted almond is my go-to. On a hot day, their iced coffee hits the spot, and the iced tea is just as refreshing. The staff is always so kind and welcoming. We’re lucky to have such a great spot in the neighborhood!“

“Wall Writers is a hidden gem in Irvine with a modern, cozy vibe and plenty of seating. The menu goes beyond the basics with unique drinks like ube lattes, pandan matcha, and pistachio lattes. Definitely worth trying. Prices are a bit higher, but the quality and creativity make up for it. It can get busy, but overall it’s a great spot to study, hang out, or grab something different from your usual coffee run“

“New Fav coffee house! Awesome selection of fresh made grub, classic coffees, vibe and hospitality on point, nice change from 🌟bucks - give these guys a try!“

“Very good coffee above corporate level, coffee institutions.“

“Oslo lifts our mornings. My wife and I stop in every day, and it feels like a bright start. The pace stays calm. The space feels warm. The staff treat you with real kindness.

We sit, sip, and talk before life speeds up. It has become our favorite ritual. Oslo adds heart to our neighborhood, like a steady light that never dims.

Key takeaway: Oslo delivers great coffee, genuine service, and a peaceful setting that makes each visit feel special.“

“Excellent high quality coffee, one of a kind flavor, plus very speedy delivery.“

“Amazing service, great decor, great food. What more could you ask for ? The smoothies are great BUT could be a meal replacement if you wanted a heavy smoothie. We got the breakfast burrito and it blew us away. The ships and roasted red salsa was a great addition to the meal. We split it because the burrito was HUGE. Will be coming again to try seasonal drinks, the bowls, and different smoothies! Thank you guys!“

“I can’t believe I have never tried this place before, especially living walking distance from it… crazy lol.

Awesome place! Awesome drinks, awesome flavor.

We were on our walk yesterday, Wednesday around 2 pm. No vehicles on the drive thru yet, so we just walked up to the window.

I got the Caramel Granita with oat-milk, it is like medium sweet drink, nice and refreshing.

The girl at the window was so patient, great suggestions, excellent customer service.

Will have to come by more often!“

“I’m surprised nobody talks about the quality of the coffee here. Of course the atmosphere feels like home and a place you can just exist at for a few hours, of course the location is great, of course the staff is friendly. That’s obvious, but the coffee is top tier. Way better than it has a right to be considering how damned honey it is. And they don’t even brag about it. Here they are this perfect little coffee shop quietly serving the best iced Spanish latte in Orange County and I’ve tried them all.

Unfortunately they’re slightly out of my way and I work nights so I don’t get them often and I don’t have a picture, but this is the coffee I tell stories about, the coffee that I literally write home about, the coffee that I dream of when I choke down another bitter espresso from Starbucks or another sugary barely coffee from Dutch.

Miss you guys and hopefully I’ll see you soon.“

“Great coffee. Way better than Starbucks and Dunkin. Please make your way to the east coast!“

“It’s very rare for a bakehouse to have both excellent pastries as well as delicious coffee. Diotima has one of the best and most inventive assortments of pastries I’ve had in the US. Quality rivals that of the best bakehouses in France. Support this amazing local business!! I wish they were open on Sundays too!“

“Delicious coffee and cake at High Tide Coffee Laguna Niguel. One of my favorite places to visit.“

“What a treat. We tried Better Buzz Coffee in Laguna Hills and wow! The ham and cheese croissant, pastries, coffee and cappuccino were fantastic. The food and service was stellar. They have a drive thru which makes it quite convenient and this place appears to be a neighborhood gem.
Highly recommended“

“I’m from SC. I wanted to surf fish while here and brought a rod/reel with me on the plane. I’m here for 5 days total. On day 1 I wanted to try a local doughnut. I saw they had gluten free. I don’t need it but my kids do. I bought some from a dude in a flannel shirt. I thought it weird, but it’s California so whatever. I got them back to the place we were staying and we all sampled about six different doughnuts. 🤯 OH MY GOODNESS!!!!! I’m a Krispy Kreme lifer but DANG THESE ARE GOOD. Today I went back and bought 6 more. These are expensive so there went my fishing budget but it’s worth it because my kids and enlaws loved it. My father enlaw said the maple bacon should be illegal it’s so good. Listen there are a lot of choices here but if you are going to try just 1 or several this should be your first stop and if like me it will be the only one you need. I’m not big on California, sorry, but the only thing better than the weather and scenery are these incredible doughnuts. 🤯“

“Definitely try the Borgia in the morning and the Santa Margarita Iced Tea in the afternoon! Both are unique drinks that offer something a little different from the usual coffee/ tea choices.“

“While on my morning walk I found this cute lil cafe that sits directly on the beach by the San Clemente Pier. My son got the bagel breakfast sandwich & coffee, my daughter got the nutella toast & I got the acai bowl. We all thought our food was good. We will def be back on our next visit there!“

“Small little cafe with pastries, cakes, ice cream and coffee. There are a few seats right outside or you can sit in the general seating area which has plenty of tables and chairs. Service was quick and the place seemed popular. Coffee was good.“

“Loved everything about our first trip to Picnic. Greeted by Camryn with a terrific smile and she guided through the menu answering all of our questions about the various menu items and beverages. She also pointed the other wonderful personalized services Picnic offers including special events , a design your charteutrie boa“

“Excellent art-inspired bakery treats. Sean (sp?) and his team’s hospitality is top-shelf.“

“Great coffee, limited food items. Tons of indoor tables for seating (even a huge square bar -- no alcohol and you order at the same place as everyone and bring your coffee and any snack to the bar seat you select) -- and outdoor seats/tables on Avenita Del Mar for people watching.“

“Love this place so much :) been to a few locations whenever I visit my family in town and the baristas are always so sweet and the coffee is so good! Definitely get The Beauty with the almond milk :) Also the gentleman at this location was so kind and went out of his way for me but I didn’t catch his name!“

“Super friendly staff & baristas. Always accommodating with special requests no matter how small or large. I can always count on a good vibe at Philz in Dana Point. And, Philz Honey Haze is my wife's all time favorite coffee drink, ever!“

“I love the Savour Pastry shop under the new ownership. I love the quality and taste of their products tremendously. My favorite items on the menu are Almond Croissant, Cream Broiler and Almond Cake plus all the rest of the pastry they make. I take their pastry to all my friends and to every gathering that I am invited to. I am so glad to support a local business, which is providing quality food and excellent services.“

“FRIENDLY staff at Peet's Coffee in Laguna Niguel, CA!“

“One of the best coffee shops in Orange county, and by far the friendliest service ever. Plenty of drinks to choose from, would a good selection of pastries. I highly recommend the turmeric bread. Heat it up and tell me this isn't the best loaf of bread you've had! I always get the (hot) ambrosia, medium cream and sugar.“

“Great Nordstrom’s, my favorite store! I like Talbots too! All of the stores are pretty well stocked and nice salespeople!“

“The service here was excellent! The staff were very friendly and helpful. This morning, I forgot to specify only 2 pumps of mocha in my drink, but later when I mentioned it the young lady ( I forgot her name) immediately took care of it with no hesitation. They all deserve 5 stars!“

“Christian was alone towards closing and killing it with the long line and many drinks having to be made. Still communicated to the next customer that he was handling one more drink and would be right with them. All with an amazing attitude!!!! And making the drinks in an amazing time manner while not rushing! ALL ALONE!!“
