50 Best Cafes near Stanton

“I write for a music and coffee blog called Crooners In Coffeeshops, in which I interview local musicians at local coffeeshops. My writeup reflects the positive experience that I encountered at Knottea Cafe on our interview date. As someone who willingly admits that she’s not the biggest fan of boba teas, I fully admit that I sometimes forget that boba shops do in fact carry other types of drinks. Knottea Cafe in Stanton, CA is exactly one of those shops that makes sure to have a decent variety of beverages to meet any visitor’s needs. They have everything from milk teas to smoothies to a build your own favor option, and of course, they have some wonderful coffee options for the bean lovers out there. A mere ten minutes away from Knott’s Berry Farm and twenty minutes from Disneyland Park, Knottea Cafe is a great pitstop on your way for a fun day at the amusement park.“

“Fast service. I grabbed some tamales and cafe de olla( Mexican coffee) and it was so so so delicious. It was a pastiera/Pandaria ,I hope I'm spelling it right but so so bomb. Great for a pick up breakfast spot on Beach Blvd. And Cerritos“

“Not only affordable for the family, but also very delicious and very friendly atmosphere“

“Read reviews on Yelp before heading over, mostly not good ? But a friend wanted to watch GM3 here. Girls were actually nice and talked to us, had the pineapple slush which was surprisingly tasty and refreshing. I don't like smoking and we couldn't order any food or snacks > lingerie girlsenjoy ?“

“Super Amables 100%Recomendable“

“first time. lovely experience. everything was very good, but not extraordinary. the avocado toast was pretty bland, couldn’t taste the avocado or cream cheese. the turkish coffee was a surprise - i don’t usually drink black coffee unless it’s very good coffee, this one i could drink it black. loved the candy that came with the coffee. service was basic, more like neighborhood family restaurant style, and they both were on the quiet side. the decor was nice and chic, not so fancy. the place was clean and quiet. overall, it’s good but on the pricier end.“

“Everything is good. Loved the coffee“

“Great all around food choices with excellent quality! All the staff are personable, friendly, and knowledgeable. Great service with great prices!! Love Appu’s“

“I’m a picky eater and I’m not the biggest fan of sandwiches BUT the Chipotle Chicken Melt Sandwich was probably the best sandwich of my life. I can’t even lie. And the strawberry matcha with oat milk was PHENOMENAL. Definitely worth the price!!!“

“Found this place while at Disneyland. Reviews were great but 5 stars doesn’t do this place justice. The food was amazing and service was next level! My family and I really felt like we were home visiting a relative. Thank you staff for making us feel welcome. You’re all awesome!“

“My favorite place for kumquat lemon iced tea with crystal boba. I love the vibe when you walk in is very peaceful and relaxing. They also use fresh fruits so you can taste it instead of too much syrup. Would recommend !“

“Stopped by Rabbit and Bean on Imperial Highway and immediately got the sense that this is a well established neighborhood coffee spot. It was busy, but not chaotic. The crowd felt like mostly local regulars who know their coffee, which is always a good sign. This is not a trendy or flashy café, but a clean, thoughtfully run independent shop that focuses on doing things right.

The space is aesthetic and well maintained. Pastries looked great, though I was not hungry this time. I went with the espresso tonic, even though they also had a yuzu matcha tonic that I have been gravitating toward lately. I needed a quick caffeine bump, and the espresso tonic delivered. Bright, refreshing, and well balanced.

My drink came out in under five minutes. We sat for a bit and watched the baristas work, and it was clear they know exactly what they are doing. Efficient movements, no wasted actions, and a calm, confident workflow behind the bar.

This has officially made it onto my list of solid coffee spots. A reliable place for good coffee, quick service, and a neighborhood vibe that feels genuine rather than forced. Definitely coming back.“

“Saw on social media and wanted to see for myself. Yep, interesting how they turned a home into a business. Smart idea to pay the mortgage itself. I'm a money person so this gave me some ideas lol.

The vibe is mixed-inside looks like an old museum and outside is the garden.“

“I have been trying to get in severally times but fail due to overcrowded not taking reservations. Other than that, good restaurant for breakfast n lunch, closed at 2pm“

“Honestly AMAZING! I was skeptical at first because it was in an office space but MAN that breakfast burrito was soooooo good! Exactly what I wanted. Light, good amount of meat and cheese and not greasy. I got a Vietnamese coffee to go with it and it was also delicious! I will be coming back :)“

“Great breakfast choices, all home cooked. Quality food with Quality service. 5 min from Disneyland. Very affordable. Carl from Colorado“

“My husband and I and my daughter Jasmine's who's visiting from Nashville Tennessee we're having breakfast this morning we're having the date break breakfast and my daughter is having the beachside pancakes everything looks delicious and very yummy this is our first time eating here“

“The iced chai, churro latte (hot or cold) and their bagels are to die for. I live out of state but cannot wait to go back when I’m in So Cal! Employees are so nice too - seems as though they are very happy working there:)“

“This place has become a favorite because they do two things good; coffee and pastries. The most impeccable combo food, other than ketchup fries. Service was quick and easy they make their own pastries, which is rare for a coffee shop. Bear signature menu is creative and executed well. I went in one of my basic B cookie butter latte ended up getting something else. Mango cold brew. Wow. Two flavor that can meld so nice so nice. mixing the drink so you don’t have the code foam with the ice“

“Soooo delicious!! Ordered to-go & took us a little over 20mins to get home & surprisingly my Shaved Iced dessert was still frozen! Very satisfied with how everything tasted. I ordered the Green Tea Snow with Oreos, Strawberries & Popping Boba combination. I loved it. I also ordered the Pistachio & Matcha Green Tea Macarons & the Milk Tea. The Pistachio Macarons & Milk Tea was delicious. Definitely recommend. (Didn’t get to try Jesse’s Breakfast)“

“My BnA experience was amazing! The service was professional and they expressed much courtesy. The atmosphere felt as though I was in a world outside of the everyday city which I worked in. I had their strawberry matcha and the flavor was a sweet and earthy balance. The Chocolate chip cookies with Walnuts were soft, giving a sweet from to chocolate and filled my mouth with a sensation of home baked feeling that made me feel a yearning for a home from my younger years.
The huge display screen really stands out above all other coffee and tea locations. With a quality menu I definitely recommend visiting Before n After for either a quick snack and refreshing beverages or a relaxing cafe setting to relax in while doing school or remote work.
Will be definitely visiting again!“

“First time visit! We will be back! Fabulous dig-friendly patio! Adorable and vintage indoor seating. Vast menu! Quality food! Great service!“

“this was some of the most delicious food I've ever had. Definitely going to be my place when in Placentia. I highly recommend that you give them a try, you won't be disappointed.“

“... a fantastic space in a 100+ year old building with high ceilings, lots-a-brick, solid menu, and welcoming staff: winner!😋“

“I really like it because the food is good and prices reasonable“

“The ambiance is out of this world, but don't be misled by the storefront. It is quite large with many rooms. Food was fantastic! It took a while to get it, but I think that's because they didn't have enough people working. Coffee was great also!“

“Great location, nearby Disney. Good drink là and friendly service. Definitely recommended.“

“Very delicious and very pleasing presentation to the eye! Definitely would recommend, the wait was a little long but it’s very understandable!! Very satisfied with our choice of coming here for breakfast, we’ll definitely be back!“

“amazing food all the time.“

“😍Great Fresh Fruit Juice“

“Very delicious and very pleasing presentation to the eye! Definitely would recommend, the wait was a little long but it’s very understandable!! Very satisfied with our choice of coming here for breakfast, we’ll definitely be back!“

“The beef carpaccio is exemplary and unlike any other carpaccio - definitely a must get! This is the only dish I would return for, especially since I live an hour away. Service was a bit awkward, and the open kitchen + high ceilings made for a very loud dining environment. They didn't even have any music playing. I had to read my boyfriend's lips the entire time we were talking.“

“Great Customer Service. Sylvia and her crew understand CS. Just go“

“Had the No.2, knowing I wasn't going to like butter in my coffee and DAMN, this one was delicious.

Service was weird. I sat down and was greeted. The guy went over to the register to help two groups of ppl that arrived after me. I asked if I needed to walk to the register and the guy said no and helped a new person with a wine selection. A girl from around the corner came to help a few moments later.“

“Porto’s is always a great spot for sweets, especially their birthday cakes, which are some of the best. The food is also very tasty, and I really enjoy their coffee because it’s always well made. The service is very attentive and friendly. The only downside is that it can get quite crowded, especially on weekends when the lines are long.“

“Try their Sandwhich. It is sooo delicious. We enjoyed the food. Very clean and it is very cozy. Loved the ambiance. And the owner is very friendly. I will recommend this place to everyone that want to enjoy getting together with close friends. Mom and daughter bonding will be a fun place to go. Hope to go back again soon.“

“άψογο μαγαζί και άψογη εξυπηρέτηση“

“Delicious!!! Definitely coming back. Great friendly service!…🥰“

“great service. fun yummy food and reasonable prices. go !“

“Perfect place for lunch sandwiches and burritos. All Fresh Dailey Patio dining Great.“

“Really cool spot close to Long Beach City college. Drink menu has a good amount of options. The baristas are nice, offering good service and I got chance to meet the owner, Peter, who's super chill and serves the community proudly!

My iced green tea with lemon and honey was excellent and refreshing.

As I was here, I can tell the customers are community regulars who love coming here and have a relationship with this cafe!“

“Great friendly vibe and delicious food.“

“Amazingly wholesome food. I came across this local business and it was so well prepared, you could taste the love and care that goes into their meals. I spoke with the owner as I was waiting for my food and you can tell that he really cares about his customers and preparing quality food. They cater too! If you are staying at the Hilton, you must try out this place!“

“I ordered the cinnamon oat latte, and I'm usually not a fan of oatmilk but it was balanced so well against the espresso and the cinnamon that it didn't dominate the flavor. It was a very smooth drink, not too sweet, not too bitter, and not too strong.

My wife got the strawberry matcha latte, and while the matcha was of a decent grade and quality, the strawberry isn't a puree, nor is it like a strawberry creme or milk added in, it's an additive in powder form and she doesn't tend to like that.

Their chocolate croissant, which we shared, was heated up as requested, it came with a line of melted chocolate drizzle on top, which I think was similar to Nutella but less thick in terms of consistency. It was also topped with powder sugar, and it had an inserted line of darker chocolate, maybe 65%, so pretty balanced against the sweetness of everything else involved.

The area the cafe is located in is nice, it's a large promenade with several nicer restaurants (it's also sort of attached to it's restaurant counterpart) and there's plenty to walk around and get some shopping done or walk off the drinks and baked sweets. Plenty of parking as well, and the mall itself is only a block or two north from the cafe.“

“I love the Bingsoo here, the portion for the price is great. The service is also great! The owner is very attentive.
A regular size is good for two people. There's plenty of tables, although they're shared with the other restaurant in the dining area. It's located inside the grocery store.“

“Every time I come to visit my daughter I make sure to come here. The owners treat everyone with the upmost respect and you feel welcomed the moment you walk through the door. I’ll always come here.“

“The food is good, huge Portion’s . Many different food options to choose from. Cool atmosphere. Very artsy ! It was worth the day trip.“

“Ahhhhh SO GOOD. Made two stops during our 3 day visit. We enjoyed lunch on the first day; toasted cheese with house made chips. Loved the chips and toasted cheese didn't skimp on the cheese. Crust was pretty hard though. And my husband got the Beef Birria Toasted Cheese. He said it was as delicious and amazing as every says it is. 2nd trip in I got the Toffee Nut Cold Brew with vanilla foam and the macaroon...to die for! Sooo good.“
