Cutest coffee spot in Fullerton! Love that it's not smack dab in dtf, but a walk around the corner. We found parking right in front on a Sunday morning. We ordered the Salted Maple Cream Cold Brew and shared a warmed Nutella croissant. It was the perfect rainy Sunday hangout spot while we enjoyed our amazing drinks. The coffee shop is clean, the service is quick, and it has great ambiance. We saw students studying and a family enjoying some breakfast pastries together. Will definitely be back!
This coffee shop is so cute! Tables inside and outside, nicely decorated, extremely friendly staff. The girl at the counter took her time to explain to me their specialty drinks. They have some pastries but we didn't try them. We got one of their Specialty Drink the Strawberry Matcha Iced with almond milk. They make their own Strawberry compot which was very light and high quality. Drink was delicious!! I need to come back to try the Black Sesame Drink with Charcoal.
TLDR: parking not easy but pretty spacious, homey cafe with wifi; bad orange bianco latte, nonchalant service I like my drinks with a cream top not a foam top and this was the first orange bianco latte I had with just milk froth on top. It was very bland and the latte itself was just milk. I should've verified but I did not expect to pay $8 for a watered down latte without cream. I recommend you get a different drink if you come to study!
Solid calm coffee spot with large tables, outlets, and a smaller crowd than other cafes in the Fullerton area. This is a great option if you are looking for a location that is not super busy on a weekday. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. I stopped by on a Monday from 2pm-5pm. It was quiet and there were plenty of seats open. Ordered the Coconut Top Latte and a Chorizo Cheddar Croissant. The latte had a moderate coffee flavor, but the coconut foam could have been stronger. The croissant was delicious, buttery, and flaky, though it could have used a bit more chorizo inside. Bathrooms were clean and there is street parking available. I also noticed they have high chairs available which is a nice touch for families.
This a cute little coffee house! It was clean and comfortable. There are places to sit outside (though on Commonwealth, so sometimes a bit noisy) but I sat inside and was able to get lots of work done. Barista was friendly. The Nutella croissant was delicious! The Salted Maple cream cold brew was also good, though I might not say it's my favorite. I'll definitely be back!
The sesame latte tasted grainy and a bit watered down as well. Service was quick and efficient and the ambiance was great but would not come back for drinks.
This café is a good spot to study or if you have to wait for your kid to finish their driving class at AAA, which was my case. This was my second time visiting 525. I was the only customer when I went, so service was quick. I got a mocha and it was good. Nothing out of this world. The place is pretty spacious inside and a nice patio out front. I sat on the outside patio and was watching a barber give a haircut across the street on the second floor. Only bad thing about sitting outside were those pesky mosquitoes. I would definitely return.
LOVE the Strawberry Cream Latte from here! This is one of few coffee shops that offer a strawberry latte and they execute it perfectly!
A very cute spot basically in downtown fullerton. We parked on the street but it does look like there is a parking lot in the back. Don't get mistaken, this does look like a house but it's actually a coffee hut! From what I experienced, I think theyre more known for their flavored drinks. I love their menu with their unique twists on lattes. I ordered the orange bianco and thought it was wonderful. It was basically like an orange latte. Also, their strawberry latte was great as well. They actually smush real strawberries. However, their regular latte tasted kind of burnt. For a coffee shop, I'm not sure why a basic latte just tasted pretty bad. Lastly, they take a while to make your drinks and it wasn't even on a busy day, which was why this is 3/5. The sweet flavored drinks is what you want yo get here.
Nice customer service, quick, and delicious coffee. I got an ICED WHITE CHOCOLATE LATTE - and it was very delicious! I enjoyed every sip! The only down side to this shop is that it's right next to a busy street & therefore not too many places to park. But a great spot and I'd likely return again (:
Look for the purple house, because if you blink you'll miss this place! 525 Coffee is in a converted house and painted a lovely shade of lavender. The house is set back a bit so you won't notice it the first time around. We didn't notice the shop when we drove by and ended up having to turn around and do the slow drive by before we found it. We ended up parking in the street, but FYI, if you drive along the narrow driveway to the left of the building, there are 3 parking spaces and 2 handicap accessible spaces available in the back. The decor is super cute and airy inside. There are plenty of seats and several people were working when I visited. There's a nice patio in the front as well as a back patio seating by the parking lot. Handicap ramp is on the right side of the house. The ladies bathroom is HUGE, they probably could've added a second stall in there They offer classic coffee drinks and teas, as well as unique and creative signature drinks. The barista was well versed with the drinks and gave us good recommendations as it was our first time visiting. My friend and I ordered the Strawberry Cream Latte, and another friend ordered the Orange Bianca. I wasn't much of a fan of the orange Bianca, but my friend enjoyed it. The strawberry cream latte was so good, honestly it was like drinking an affogato with strawberry ice cream. They sell cakewiches and pastries from Cake Monkey Bakery in LA. I picked up a gluten free tangerine tea cake and almond croissant and both were great!
I was pleasantly surprised by the vibes at 525 Coffee!! this spot is very compatible with students and folks who WFH. Cozy seating, calm atmosphere. I ordered the Spanish latte and could tell it was made with care by my barista. I would say this place is perfect for studying, reading, or just treating yourself to a great latte.
Amazing coffee! I tried the strawberry soft top latte and I was really impressed! The strawberry soft top has that authentic strawberry flavor, unlike the artificial flavor you might find somewhere else. The coffee itself tasted amazing! (This is on the pricier side for coffee, $8) I will say, the parking is a little confusing. I parked on the street in front of the business (2 hour parking max.) and am unsure if there are any spots on the back... just something to keep in mind. The coffee shop itself is very nice! They have a decent amount of seating that varies from comfy chairs to a nice bench. They also have plenty of outdoor seating!... I think this is a great study spot! The music is calming, which is great for focusing and getting things done. The service was also good. Definitely a spot worth trying ;) read more
Located on Commonwealth Ave is 525 Coffee. Street parking. Plenty of seating inside. This place has good coffee and baked goods. The coffee was rich and deep. The Croissant we ordered was fluffy and yet brittle. Inside had rich, thick, cream cheese and spicy jalapeños. Delicious. Order it hot! Service was good, as well. read more

There's plenty of coffee options nearby my house and every now and then I like to mix it up, which brought be back to 525. I don't remember much about my first visit, so it felt like I was going for the first time and was really excited to try more of their menu. For starters the location is super cute! Plentiful street parking and proximity to my house made it the perfect pit stop on my walk. It has both indoor and outdoor seating, with plenty of natural light. For a weekday it seemed pretty busy so some of the indoor seating might be harder to grab depending on the time of day you come. There's not too much to say about their service. My barista wasn't super friendly, but everything came out fairly quickly and nothing on that end was truly bad. I really think it just depends on who's working, but I would say this didn't affect my experience too much. Coffee wise they're solid, and I enjoyed everything I had. The Strawberry Cream latte was pretty good, and the croissant I had with it was also tasty. There weren't many options left in the case for food but I also arrived later in the day so I'm sure they sold out of their other items. There are definitely better spots around the area with more interesting menus, but you're not gonna go wrong coming here. I'll definitely be back if I'm ever in the mood. Worth a visit if you've never been before! read more

I stopped by and ordered the strawberry matcha latte along with the chocolate peanut butter cakewich. The matcha latte was so good..not overly sweet at all, and the matcha flavor was perfectly balanced. I also loved the little strawberry pieces mixed in, which added a nice burst of flavor and texture. The chocolate PB cakewich was decent. If you eat it right away, it tastes a little dry, but once you let it sit out and thaw a bit, the chocolate flavor really comes through. I do wish it had a bit more peanut butter to balance it out, but overall I'd still buy it again. I will deduct one star away simply because i prefer to devour once I purchase it instead of thawing it put for few minutes. The building is literally facing Commonwealth and can be easy to miss since it looks like a house from the outside. Inside, though, it feels calm and peaceful with a few seating areas to relax. The restroom was clean as well. Customer service is 5/5. Very sweet and welcoming. read more
First time here and I was luckily nearby since I was getting my tires done. This is a cute lil coffee shop next to an antique shop. Theres coffee, refrigerated drinks, small pastries (only cookies & tiny cakes at opening), matcha, teas, and tonic drinks. The service is easy and quick. Good place to study with indoor and outdoor seating. There's also a restroom for men and women. I'd come back and get other types of drinks. I got the strawberry matcha (6/10; matcha is not as strong flavored) and salted maple cream cold brew (7/10); I think it's more on the sour side but the foam is pretty good with it. read more
I went here for a quick coffee break and there is a good amount of seating for those who want to relax or work from a coffee shop. Parking is free street parking that's fairly available but it can be tough with traffic in the street. We got the strawberry matcha tea latte and orange bianco, both of which are 525 signatures and $7.50 each tax included. Price wise is decent with the quality and presentation. Strawberry matcha tea latte is really good with fresh fruit chunks. My girlfriend said this is one of the best matcha lattes she has tried. The orange bianco has double espresso, milk, and orange compote which is quite interesting. It is definitely less sweet and has a little bit of a tangy kick from the orange, so your mileage may vary on if you like it or not. Otherwise, if you want something of this format, then get the strawberry bianco. Drinks are prepared fairly quickly and there are plenty of spots to take nice pictures of the drinks. Overall, one of the better coffee shops out there! read more
I've been wanting to try this place. It is a cute coffee house with lots of seating. I love the eclectic furniture and the choice of colors both inside and outside. The coffee choices are different from your Starbies and Coffee Bean which is what I love. The cashier was very friendly and detailed in explaining the different drinks. I had the Strawberry Cream Latte and it was delish! I would order it again and want to return to try the other drinks! read more

Stopped by for a quick coffee and enjoyed the unique exterior and location for the cafe. It was kind of hard to get to as I had to park across the street and with there being no nearby crosswalks, I had to just run as fast as I could before a car came. I ordered an Iced Spanish latte which was made to perfection, no notes! read more
525 Coffee is located in an unexpected area in Fullerton, seemingly in a residential area on the Main Street. Even so, the environment is always clean and inviting. Parking can be hard in the back because there's only 3 spaces, but there should be plenty of street parking. I ordered the strawberry matcha and my coworker got the yuzu expresso tonic. We both really enjoyed our drinks and what stood out about my drink was that the strawberry compote was absolutely strawberry forward delicious. Will come back, but a word of warning is that it is a bit on the pricier end! read more
525 Coffee Co. *March 5, 2025 *10am- Wednesday *4 Stars Seating/ Environment: *Self Seating *Quick Service *Street Parking Food/Drink: *Strawberry Matcha Tea Latte (Almond Milk) I stopped by 525 Coffee Co. on a whim after the coffee shop my coworkers and I originally planned to visit was packed. I wasn't expecting much but was pleasantly surprised. The space was very spacious, with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. The drink and food presentation were beautiful, though my matcha latte was weaker than I expected for being ceremonial grade. read more

Cute coffee shop with a cozy vibe. I came to do some studying and it was great. The hot apple latte was delicious and the sage cheddar crossaint was to die for, I dream about it. It was raining during my visit so I didnt use it but the back patio looked nice too. Staff was friendly and answered any questions I had. read more

First time visiting 525 Coffee Shop, and unfortunately the experience wasn't memorable. When I approached the counter, there was no greeting. The employee appeared to be texting on her phone. After standing there for about a minute and looking over the menu, we hoped the person at the register would ask if we needed help, but that never happened. When we eventually placed our order, the interaction felt very transactional. There was no welcome, no recommendations, and no effort to create a positive first impression. I'm sharing this review mainly to bring awareness to management. A little customer service coaching could make a big difference. In the end, I believe the goal of any business owner isn't just to generate revenue, but to create a welcoming experience that makes customers want to come back. read more
525 Coffee Co is gorgeous. The location is tucked away (extremely difficult to find from a glance). The furniture is clean and comfortable; the music is quiet for studying; and the location is filled with electric sockets to charge devices and laptops. I had entered the establishment on Wednesday (near 2:00pm) and the place is packed with college students. At 525 Coffee Co, I ordered the Strawberry Matcha Tea Latte ($7.50). The drink is aesthetically pleasing to look at, but it's pricey for the given portion and quality. The beverage tasted like watery milk. I barely tasted the matcha. Thankfully, the drink's bits of strawberries tasted fresh. Unfortunately, I needed to navigate my boba-sized straw around the generous ice to reach them. Next, I noticed the posted hours are short compared to other locations; it closes at 4PM or 6PM depending on the day. Parking is also very limited; I had to park in a nearby neighborhood just to walk over. Concerning service, 525 Coffee Co had one staff member. She's friendly and busy. There was no line, but I still waited for 3 minutes before being helped at the register. Overall, 525 Coffee Co is a cozy location with unmemorable drinks; I can't recommend the Strawberry Matcha Tea Latte. At the very least, it's a novel experience if frantically needing a place to study or work on your laptop. read more

525 Coffee Co. located inAnaheim, CA. This coffee shop received their name from their street address: 525 Commonwealth Ave., Fullerton CA. This location's building resembles a house, with a pretty porch and welcoming design. We were super excited to try their coffee! We ordered their iced Orange Bianco latte with oatmilk, which is a latte infused with oranges. This drink sounds completely strange, but it has become a flavorful favorite. The coffee mixes with the orange peels that are muddled in, and adds this tarty, but sweet flavor to the drink. We totally recommend this unique latte! We also ordered their Strawberry Cream Top Latte with Oatmilk. This drink is perfect and comforting. It mixes a bold espresso brew with milk and a sweet, whipped strawberry foam. This drink's flavors blended perfectly and we simply could not get enough after every sip! 525 has become a personal favorite of ours and look forward to trying more drinks. They even have a delicious cold brew. Their baristas have amazing customer service and truly understand the art of coffee making. Their pastries are also delicious, and are from Cake Monkey Bakery located in Los Angeles, CA. This place is a must try, and if you do go, let us know what you got! read more

This is a wonderful little coffeeshop - probably one of the best in all of Fullerton/Buena Park. I got there nice and early around 7:30am and had a cute little table in a very comfortable chair (just threw out my back, that chair was a godsend). I spent the whole day there working, getting up occasionally to order some of their very tasty little snacks. It's so rare as a celiac to get to have nice cakes and these hit just the spot. I highly recommend visiting this cafe - they have outlets and wifi, perfect for getting work done. The staff are pleasant as well. read more
