“I've been here several times now and my favorites are their avocado toast and breakfast sandwiches. I like their hot mochas, home town latte, and matcha latte.Super convenient spot with parking in the garage. If it's quick stop, I just park down the street.“
“I'm a low-key regular customer at this coffee shop, and I love it! Since the day they first opened till now, I've been hooked. The owner lady is an absolute sweetheart and always remembers me and my pet bird when we visit. The atmosphere is so chill and clean it's the perfect spot to wind down and enjoy a cup of coffee. And speaking of coffee, it's always top-notch and consistent. The service is fantastic, too. The staff always goes above and beyond to make me feel welcome.“
“My family and I are visiting California from Hawaii, and we wanted to find a coffee place near our hotel so I told them we should try this place. We got the hot chocolate, cafe latte, salted caramel latte, oreo latte, and croffles. Everything was carefully curated and tasted really good. Definitely will come here again during our stay!“
“Boy, I love this coffee shop so much! The ambience is giving trendy and giving craft coffee vibe! The drinks were so delicious! It's the perfect spot to pay your overpriced coffee and pay for the nice instagram post! Plus the people work there are nice and down to earth, service is fast! I still think about the hojicha latte I got! And it's so good!“
“Amazing service - baristas always offer great recommendations. They often have seasonal drinks on rotation so I typically get a different iced latte every time I'm here. Plenty of tables to sit down and work or read. Drinks never disappoint!“
“Great place to study and good food/drinks. The hot chocolate was superb and the even have a cute little loft upstairs.Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access, no automatic door buttons for bathroom/entry. But the side door is wide open and the bathroom is huge.“
“Excellent coffee: I had the spiced Mayan mocha and it was excellent. The place has a great lounge and vibe but no WiFi (I’m assuming to discourage people posting up all day). I found what I ordered to be overpriced so it’s not a place I’d rush to come back to but a great coffee pit stop if you’re in the area.Vegetarian options: Almond and Oat Milks available.“
“A nice place to come get strong, aromatic Vietnamese coffee. The place is fancy and well decorated. Staff are friendly and tables are clean and inviting. I love their classic Vietnamese Coffee. It is strong so be sure to let the ice melt a little so it's not too strong or bitter. I will definitely come back here to get some more coffee drinks. The plaza has adequate parking and not too crowded.“

“There is no sign on the outside and you have to go in the parking area to see the shop. I have been buying Wilson coffee from Fermentation Farm and I have always thought it's just coffee beans and tea packages and not over the counter coffee. Well now I was happy to see they have over the counter coffee. I was asking Matt how long has the counter been open and he said 12 years. And I was shocked as I always thought it's only a coffee roaster place. He said this is the normal reaction of folks coming in and ordering coffee. I know Wilson coffee is passionate about coffee roasting and having a cup of coffee feels like as fresh as I can get. You know where the beans are being roasted. The cool thing about this place is it's simplicity and attention to the coffee bean. No frills, just the best coffee bean in the neighborhood.“
“I recently had the pleasure of visiting Moongoat Coffee, and I must say, it was an absolutely delightful experience! From the moment I walked through the door, I was greeted with warm smiles and impeccable service that truly made me feel welcome.The star of the show, of course, was the coffee. I ordered both the Coffee Latte and the Churro Latte, and they were nothing short of exceptional. The Coffee Latte had a rich and smooth flavor, perfectly balanced with just the right amount of espresso and steamed milk. It was a comforting and invigorating start to my day.Now, let's talk about the Churro Latte. Oh, my taste buds were in heaven! The combination of the aromatic coffee and the delectable hints of cinnamon and caramel made for a truly unique and indulgent experience. It felt like sipping on a churro in liquid form! I couldn't get enough of it.Beyond the incredible beverages, the atmosphere at Moongoat Coffee was cozy and inviting, with comfortable seating arrangements and a pleasant ambiance. It was the perfect spot to relax, catch up with a friend, or simply enjoy some quality "me" time.What truly sets Moongoat Coffee apart, though, is the exceptional service provided by the staff. The baristas were friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about their craft. They took the time to explain the menu, answer all my questions, and even offered recommendations based on my preferences. Their attention to detail and genuine enthusiasm for their work made the entire experience that much more enjoyable.I highly recommend paying a visit to Moongoat Coffee. Whether you're a coffee aficionado or simply looking for a cozy spot to unwind, this place has it all. With their outstanding service, delicious coffee options like the Coffee Latte and Churro Latte, and inviting ambiance, Moongoat Coffee is a hidden gem that deserves all the recognition. I can't wait to return for another exceptional cup of coffee!“
“Cute little coffee shop that I stumbled upon! I recently moved to the Fullerton area so I thought I would explore some of the coffee places nearby and this one is like a 3 minute drive from me so I said why not! When you walk in, you're immediately greeted by the workers and they make you feel super welcome! The interior is super cute and modern looking.As for the coffee, it was decent! I can't really comment on the coffee as I got a matcha latte but it wasn't bad! It just didn't taste as matcha -y as I like but it was a nice little pick me up in the morning before a hike. The next time I go I will try an actual coffee just to see how they make it here. All in all a cute little coffee place that I do intend on visiting again soon :)“
“Second time here and I've gotta say both experiences have been quite pleasant. Tried the Ca Phe and it was pretty tasty. Coffee is also reasonably priced and the atmospehere is very laid back. I would definitely come back a third time next time I'm in the area.Parking: Lots of parking around the shop entrance.Kid-friendliness: Kids sitting and having a nice meal.Wheelchair accessibility: Disability ramp right in front.“
“Don't know how i've never reviewed this place before. But theres not much to say except its awesome. I love this whole place and their mission statement. The drinks are superb especially the sensory latte! Also, the bagels are huge and so good! I even asked them where they got them from. Prices are reasonable and both locations are amazing. Only problem is that theres not enough parking here for how many customers they got!!!“
“Great coffeeshop to study or relax. It is small, but there are spots available inside and outside. Limited pastries selection, and the pastries and coffee are on the expensive side as a high-end shop, but the atmosphere makes it worth a visit.Service has been OK but nothing special, and more food availability would be welcome. They also charge an automatic service fee, unfortunately (think it’s about 5-10%). Nice parking lot that always has parking“
“Fantastic coffee shop with delicious drinks and tasty food, especially the quiches yum! I'm partial to lattes, and Bodhi has the best lavender and the best chai lattes around imo. They also have an extensive list of other flavors to try. I haven't had one yet that I didn't enjoy. You can order in person or online, and drinks are ready quickly and correctly. I've been going here regularly for years and love this place!“
“5 star FRESH local roastery & cafe!! The owners and employees are super cool, super friendly, and they also have probably the best coffee & best prices anywhere! Grab a fresh espresso or drip, & an amazing just roasted bag of whole beans or ground coffee for all your home brewing needs! This place is a hidden gem!! If you're a coffee lover, you don't want to miss stopping by! They also love cars, so that's an added bonus!“
“Really good coffee, but as with most places, get there early if you prefer dark roasts. The Winchester and Capistrano are nice dark roasts. The Cranberry Rosemary muffins are really tasty. Nice place with a good atmosphere. Only one detail....**Please pay better attention to your restrooms. They're clean most of the time, but need checked for soap and paper products more diligently. Empty those trash cans, keep the soap dispenser full, and keep the paper stuff installed, and you'll get a fifth star. Thanks!“
“If only they were in my neighborhood! I'm a Lavender latte girl. But I'm all about tasting the richness of a good Espresso, along with a hint of yummy lavender goodness. (As opposed to a cup of sugary syrup, with way too much cream and a hint of some metal tasting coffee.) Huskins makes their own lavender & it's beautiful. And ohhh that coffee, it definitely wins the Stanley Cup! . Thank you Huskins! PS I haven't stayed for the ambiance. No waiting around here, Baristas are Kind, knowledgeable and efficient! I'm on the road again in no time.“
“I have to give a shout out to Emily!!! I had a challenge placing an order in Uber Eats today, and she was so kind and patient to help over the phone. I got my order right because of her. Thank you sooo much Emily.Parking: Enough parking at this location“
“Easy access, big parking lot, easy to spot, great location.The place is beautiful, everything was really clean, and all the décor is great.The menu is clear with fair prices.The staff were nice.The chairs are a bit uncomfortable, but it is part of the charm; they match the decorations.It was good that people share the table; a few people that I had never seen before just joined me, which was nice.But... there's no internet. I went there to use the space to work and couldn't.I asked the staff about it, and the answer was, "Oh, yeah, we know. It often doesn't work. Pretty much, we don't have any."In fact, there was a small sign that said something about it.In general, it is a good place. I liked it.“
“their breakfast and coffee is very good yes like their customer service and also they're very polite and willing to help. if you don't know what to get and all of their menu any questions you have they will answer it to you very polite and everything's really good get a chance and you're nearby try it out you won't regret it.“
“Dark Horse is originally from San Diego so I was surprised to see it in OC. I love their matcha here and crave it from time to time. I never get oat milk with my matcha so I can't speak for the flavor combo of their matcha + oat milk. Buuut whole milk + their iced matcha is a winner in my book at Steelcraft. bonus points goes to the friendly staff members!!“
“ALWAYS ALWAYS AMAZING COFFEE. Such an underrated and amazing roaster. They're innovative and fresh. Espresso is fantastic as well as just their straight up coffee. They mix up there blends and roasts.If you want foofy drinks- they have them too, but done simple and right.Lavender or Rose Latte are delish. Recently tho I got their seasonal Autumn Spice Latte with toasted marshmallow whip... OH MY. Not usually a sweet coffee person so I only halfed the maple brown sugar syrup they make. PERFECT!!! THAT WHIP IS INSANE! It's slightly salted uuuh yurm.“
“The food was really good. We got the avocado toast and it was way better and supple than I had expected. I thought it was just going to be a regular avocado toast, maybe some feta, a little balsamic, but this one had arugula, radish, onions and spices covered everywhere. So so good, and the avocado spread was so thick and filling. Overall super solid eats. Coffee was great too, got the Madagascar Vanilla Latte and the taste was really nice, one of my favs from the OC. Lastly the ambience is sick. The ceiling has such cool art that looks insane with the the glasses and then the surrounding area and all the seating is so nice and inviting and comfy. Loved my experience.“
Coffee Roasteries •
“I was so excited when I found this local roaster on Yelp, and to my surprise, Pacific Beans completely exceeded my expectations! To give you some background on my coffee preferences, I love purchasing single-origin coffee beans to make pour overs at home using my Hario V60. I usually buy online from highly reputable roasters such as Onyx Coffee Lab and Black and White Roasters. This local roaster is almost on that same level without having to pay for shipping or steep mark-ups. About a month ago, I purchased three coffee bean offerings from them (two in person and one online), and they were all amazing. I'm impartial to naturally processed Ethiopian beans, but I had to try the Indonesian offering, and it didn't disappoint! I did wish that the Indonesian offering was roasted lighter to get more of the fruity notes, because those beans seemed to grind finer than the other offerings I purchased. I also tried their El Paraiso and their Santa Lucia Gesha - both were amazing and complex in their own ways. I love that they didn't over-roast these beans and that they roast in small batches to ensure that you'll pick up a fresh bag. The exotic, fruity flavors really come out in these beans, and I was able to taste all the notes they had listed on the packaging (especially the El Paraiso, which was by far my favorite - the lychee notes were so prominent in that one!) Best of all, you can call ahead and place your order, and they'll roast it for you the next day. You can also order online on their website, and they'll ship it to you for free. They have a selection of freshly roasted beans on stock as well, if you're looking to pick up something quick. In person, service was very friendly and helpful. It is quiet, and the location is a bit hard to find (it's along an alley away from the busy traffic of Beach Blvd). It is quiet in there since their cafe is closed, but you can still visit during open hours to buy beans.“
“Found this place on Yelp and decided to give them a try. Ambiance: 4.5/5 Wednesday morning around 10:30am, there were a good amount of people, but not too crowded. No line tho. So I took my time with the menu, and the staff was helpful answering any questions. I ended up getting a cold brew with 2 different flavors in the cold foam. I forget which flavors but I asked the girl and she said it sounds good. My brother got the vanilla bean frappe. Drinks: 3/5 The cold brew itself was light but more on the sour spectrum. I am not a major cold brew connoisseur, so not sure if that's good or bad. The foam didn't add too much flavor to the drink, but I appreciated it was there. Not my favorite nor would I come back here for this, but maybe another drink. The vanilla bean frappe didn't have coffee in it - I don't think. I guess I assumed it would, but no worries about that. It was true to its name. He drank it, but we both agreed it was just alright. Service: 5/5 The service was great however, the cute merchandise corner was nice, and there was lots of seating and places to work or catch up with friends.“
“We got the Iced Mocha and the Rosemary Honey Latte, and both were so good! The Iced Mocha is on the richer side and they use mexican chocolate if i’m not mistaken. The Rosemary Honey latte was definitely my favorite, it was so aromatic and the perfect amount of sweetness. Definitely highly recommend and will be back for more!!“
“After I decalcified my old Nespresso machines (again), I bought more capsules and paid attention. WOW - I can buy single use capsules and they'll recycle the used ones at no extra cost. AND what I spend for per cup (smaller amount, less caffeine) is within +/- 50% if what I spend to grind beans and brew a pot at a time at home. The "Green consciousness" and how Nespresso designs their whole luxury coffee lifecycle / experience truly is awesome! Kudos to Nespresso! I am grateful to enjoy these products.“
“I loveeeeee the coffee here! And the courtyard in the back is perfect for letting my little one run around while enjoying coffee! I get the vanilla latte and I love that they serve it in a mug! I only wish I had been able to try the cookie butter latte before they got rid of it!“
