This such a cute cozy cafe. We had their matcha lattes and pastry items. Their coconut matcha and strawberry matcha are great. We have returned to this business. The staff have been friendly each time. We will keep coming back!
Great spot to get my Ube and espresso fix. Clean aesthetics. Prompt service. Love that they are expanding their menu soon. Usually get the Goth Ube Latte, with less ice.
Arc, you continue to blow my mind. An iced latte and thrifting is #1 on my weekend task list. Since estate dales pop off in Buena Park this coffee shop has become a repeat on the weekend rotation. I recently tried their banana bread latte for the first time. This is not only banana flavored, but also has light pieces of graham cracker. There's no better way to describe this drink than a visual of my brain blowing - if only Yelp allowed emojis. I've found that a great quality flavored latte can be hard to come by. I like my morning beverages to be heavy on the caffeine - both in dosage and flavor. Arc has done a tremendous job of balancing the two. I've also tried their espresso tonic (insane) and their traditional matcha. Easily a top coffee shop in Orange County!
Overall, service was quick, their flavored drinks are great, hojicha was pretty good, but the matcha was watery and their drinks are majority ice Don't get me wrong, the banana bread hojicha was INCREDIBLE... i just wish there was more of it in my cup and less ice.... The matcha was super watery and not strong at all when we went. Every sip tasted like whole milk with an aftertaste of matcha.
Small but cute coffee shop. The parking lot out front is also pretty small so just a heads up Banana bread latte: 4/5 I liked it but I usually prefer just regular banana lattes so this had slightly too much cinnamon for me Note: I'm not personally a matcha person but my cousins love the earl grey matcha so I'd recommend that for anyone that does like matcha
Finally a good cafe in Cypress! I love their matcha and cream tops so much. The staff is always nice and really fast and the place is always super clean. The matcha is good quality and I don't have to drive to LA or GG anymore. I hope this place stays here for a long time.
Atmosphere: 4 Pretty straight forward. It's clean and quaint, but even looking at pictures to determine if we had been there before left us questioning it. Relatively forgetable, but they put some energy into it. Menu variation: 3.5 They had a couple drinks outside of the standards, but not much. Looks like they do mix it up and do seasonal drinks. Customer Service: 4.t The cashier was pleasant, polite, and patient when asking questions. They were nice enough to split a pulled double shot of espresso between our drinks as well. I'm always appreciative of people who are willing to do that for us. Drink quality: 4.5 I got the honey butter latte with oat milk and an add shot. My husband got the banana bread latte with oat milk and an add shot. Both drinks were really good. I'm not a banana person, so I thought my husband's was in your face with the banana flavor, but he really enjoyed it. But I didn't think mine was overly sweet, and the sweetness was subtle, and it had a nice cream top. Food quality: N/A Price worth it: 5 Stuff is expensive. Since the drinks were good, I didn't mind paying for unique flavors we couldn't recreate at home. Enjoy your own culinary adventure!
Good local spot with great selection of drinks. Love how they sell Rocky's matcha tins &Rocky's hojicha. Some key takeaways: -small store, can get a bit stuffy -good spot to just grab and go -parking is terrible -extremely loud music -not hearing impaired friendly (baristas seem irritated lol when i've asked to repeat what they said -i still tipped unfortunately) -chairs are a bit uncomfortable -no public restrooms
I was influenced to try this coffee shop because of tiktok & it was a success! I ordered the honey butter latte & my daughter ordered a matcha einspanner. Honey butter latte was 10/10. I love honey. I love butter. I love a good latte so obviously this was gonna be good. Creamy. Not too sweet and I'm a sweet coffee girly but this drink still hits! ARC uses Rocky Matcha so you know it's gonna be fire. Creamy ceremonial matcha is always gonna be delicious! Parking is kinda small but once we arrived, 3 cars were leaving so lucky us! When we left, there was one spot open. There's nowhere really else to park so parking can be a hit or miss here. Still worth a try!
I also book-marked this place for a while. It is near my vet (well, not mine, my doggies') and quite close to another Da Vien location. But, the menu looks interesting and I saw many good reviews so I wanted to try. Yesterday, Saturday morning, was the first time I went, though it was my second time going there. My first attempt I left without stopping because I think it was on a weekend during peak hours, and, I could not find any parking and waited a bit in the tiny parking plaza, which is a tiny corner plaza shared with 7-eleven and few other shops, and there was basically no street parking really, unless you go to the residential on the double lane on Cerritos. Luckily, Saturday late morning, plenty of parking and inside, the small shop was already filled with customers and people sitting to enjoy their drinks. No line and I went to the register to order right away. Maybe bad morning for the staff who helped me but she was NOT happy at all. I wanted to ask few questions because it was my first time but her face made me feel bad even trying to ask questions.. But, she was fine answering me though. Maybe just the vibe, it was cold. Anyway, what caught my eye was the Earl Grey Matcha. So, going against my go-to orders for matcha, which is usually ALWAYS a double matcha whenever anywhere offers it (if you read my recent reviews on matcha shops, the reason I refrain myself from getting double matchas now is the CALORIES!!!!). Anyway but I digressed. I got the Earl Grey matcha and the Goth Coffee for my bf (which has charcoal). The girl explained to me why she would recommend it and I think she said it would be on the sweeter side... So I did not ask to adjust any sweetness, though I asked for less sweet for my matcha. Maybe cuz of how she was, I might've mis-understood what she said but. When I had a taste of my bf's Goth coffee/latte with whole milk, it was .... more charcoal flavor than coffee.... I did not taste any coffee at all... It def looked very cool though, hence I took the photo. It looked more like a black sesame and milk drink. Overall, it was meh. BUT... the highlight was the Earl Grey Matcha... now, I can tell they use premium quality ceremonial grade matcha here. And I appreciate that they take the liberty to make their matcha without asking my opinions what type of ceremonial matcha I would want (some other places have like 4 kinds and different price level and would ask what matcha grade I would want for my latte, honestly, I don't care and it stresses me out having to choose without information. I mean, how much information can I digest reading the city of where the matcha is?? I wouldn't know!!!) Sorry, I digressed again. The Earl Grey Matcha is such a REFRESHING taste that it was just so ....refreshing, sorry for the lack of better words. Because they have the right ratio of matcha:water:oatmilk, my matcha was NOT too milky and the matcha was not overpowering at all. And, if you're a fan of Earl Grey like me, the tea has such a refreshing, light, and fragrant tone that there's a hint of the whole tea garden, with flowers, and spring water with my matcha after each sip. I swear I'm not high or anything but it was THAT good. Now, THAT, is a refreshing matcha, that you cannot get it everywhere. I appreciate that they came up with this combination so much! I don't even know where you get earl grey syrup.. maybe if I look on amazon, but, I would def come back here again and again for this drink!! HIGHLY REC!!!
My friends and I were in the area, so we decided to stop by Arc Coffee. One of my friends was super hyped about trying it out due to all the good reviews she's read about it, but unfortunately, our experience was rather lackluster. Not sure if it was an off-day for them, or if it's because we caught them during a slightly busy time, but to me, the matcha latte I ordered was just ok. Not terrible, but also not amazing. My friends had ordered the hojicha einspanner, banana bread matcha, and orange tonic. According to them the hojicha was ok, banana bread matcha was decent but it was more like a regular matcha with banana foam (there was no crumbs or toppings added), and the orange tonic was a bit too bitter. The front bar area and distribution of drinks was also rather hectic. There were 3-4 people working in such a small space, and cups were lined up all the way to the register area. Customers were waiting for their drinks to be called out, but it was confusing because they would call out the drink name and lots of people ordered the same drinks! I think an actual number/ticket distribution or calling out a person's name for the order would be more efficient. Staff was friendly though! The shop was a lot smaller than expected, but it was clean. Parking space was pretty hectic with cars always coming in and out in such a tiny area. Unfortunately, my friends and I don't think we'll be returning.
So I drove by this place a few times and always seen a line out the door. Today I decided I wanted to give it a try! Located on the corner of Valley View St. and Cerritos Ave. in a small plaza. The inside of the shop is small but modern and clean with a few seating options. The staff welcomed us as we walked in and were quick and friendly. They offer classic coffee drinks, signature coffees, and matchas, along with a small selection of baked goods. I ordered one of their signature drinks, the Honey Butter Latte (served iced only), and an Einspanner Matcha. The latte was strong, creamy, and pillowy smooth. The matcha was also very good, smooth, creamy, and not overly sweet, with a nice matcha flavor. But if you're in the area and needing a morning coffee or afternoon pick me up stop on by and give it a try!
Matcha einspanner is similar to the quality of matcha from community goods! But the COCONUT MATCHA was 10/10! I will come back just for that. The Honey Butter Latte (not pictured) is also a great option for the espresso lovers! Place is cute and small with some space for studying. The workers are so efficient.

I have driven by this place so many times and finally got the chance to try it. This coffee shop was very cute and had a minimalist vibe to it. The service was quick and friendly as well. I ordered a Hojicha Banana Bread Iced Latte. Any place that has Hojicha is already going to become one of my faves. Their Hojicha Banana Bread Latte was delicious. It had a nice subtle sweetness to it and the bananabread crumbs on top were perfect. read more
Great service. Clean space. Plenty of options. Love that they have ube options (they swap out condensed milk for ube condensed milk - for the matcha, I believe it's an ube cream?). Small parking lot, but plenty of space in the morning. I visited a long time ago and so glad I was able to come back today. The Goth latte with ube, almond milk, less sweet - AMAZING. I recommend visiting this shop! read more

for a thursday morning, they weren't busy meaning the service was fast :) website says they open at 7am but i'm pretty sure they opened a few minutes earlier which is nice! for an early morning shift, everyone seemed welcoming. the guy at the counter helped me pick out my drink. i got the iced honey butter latte and a ham and cheese jalapeño croissant. everything tasted great. iced honey butter latte: ****\5 stars: the drink was sweet but not dessert like. i still enjoy the coffee and sweetness balance but for $6.50, they really skimped out on the drink. it wasn't filled up all the way to the top which was disappointing. it seemed like it was filled to the top but it was actually just foamy from all their mixing. ham and cheese jalapeño croissant 3.5/5 stars: overall a pretty decent croissant. i had to eat half of the croissant to finally reach the ham and cheese. also, they use yellow cheese which i found different but not in a bad way. good news is there are a couple jalapeño pieces inside the croissant as well as on top!! the place was small but clean and well lit. overall, i'd probably wouldn't come here again unless i'm in the area. matter of fact, as a newcomer, i probably shouldn't have tipped because the service was just normal behavior and nothing exceptional read more

The matcha here was really good and they use Rockys! I would dock just one star due to the lack of earl grey flavor in my earl grey matcha. Otherwise the matcha was really strong and the quality was good! Up there with the good matchas in OC! read more
Tried the orange tonic here and it was so delicious and refreshing. The staff were all really friendly and welcoming too. The shop itself is a bit small, but I did notice a few people studying inside. I can see it getting crowded pretty quickly during busy hours though. Parking can also be a little difficult if you come at peak times, especially since it's right by a 711. Overall I really liked the drinks and definitely want to come back to try more items on the menu. They also sell Rocky Matcha here, so I'll probably try one of their matcha drinks next time. read more

I got the matcha einspanner with the ube cream top, and it was really good! Staff were friendly, and I bought a tin of Rocky's matcha as well. The store itself has limited seating, but if you could secure a spot, it'd be a nice little hangout spot. read more

I visited Arc Coffee because I saw that they sell Rocky's Matcha Tins and if you buy a tin, you get a free matcha! My favorite drink that i've tried so far is the Earl Grey Matcha. I sometimes like to get a regular Matcha Latte with no sugar and even with no sugar it's still yummy! The service is good and drinks are made quickly. The seating area is a little small so I usually order and go when I visit. I'm definitely going to come back when I need to re-up on my matcha powders. I'm eyeing the Okumidori powder! read more

I tried the Banana Matcha for the first time today, and I have to say I was disappointed. The banana syrup left a bitter aftertaste, mainly because of the small banana pieces in the drink. When I bit into them, I could actually taste and feel the fibrous banana strings, which made the drink less enjoyable. The banana syrup could be improved by using fully ripe bananas and taking the extra time to remove the fibrous strings before making the syrup. While it does require more preparation, it would make a noticeable difference. Ripe bananas are naturally sweeter, and removing the strings would eliminate much of the bitterness while creating a smoother, creamier syrup and cold foam. I also ordered the regular Matcha Latte, and personally, I found it more enjoyable than the Banana Matcha. That said, my all-time favorite drink here is still the Butter Honey Latte. It's incredibly creamy, rich, and full of flavor. I highly recommend giving that one a try! read more
First timer here.....Eh. Pros: -menu offers variety of typical drinks you'd find at a Korean cafe -they sell Rocky's matcha. Buy one get a free drink -cute instagram worthy interior. -plenty of seating Cons: -parking sucks. Very limited since it shares with other busy businesses in this plaza. -customer service was crazy. If you're not ok with being greeted the min you walk in or when you tell them that you've never been there before and the girl at the register just says "ok" and walks away.. then this place ain't the one for you lol Drink: I ordered their iced honey latte. It was ok. Not gonna say that it was not good because I finished it. I also needed the caffeine and sugar though this morning. Tbh, I forgot how it tasted like already. But I do remember it feeling like I was drinking melted snickers ice cream bar. It was sweet, thick and warm. Other than that. I prob wouldn't come back. Not because of the weird customer service but because I'd rather drink my calories somewhere else. read more

This small coffee shop is in line with so many other coffee houses lately. These places are packed with patrons. The menu is small, and prices seem to be a bit more affordable. They offer a small case of pastries, but no other food. I feel like these places are a dime a dozen now-a-days. When ya walk in, no matter how big or small the space, there are tables full of people socializing. I am kind of digging this new trend. As for my beverage, I did enjoy it. The balance of flavor and texture was nice (once mixed). Nice level of sweetness, which for me is very light. The only challenge here is parking. It's located in the corner of a strip mall and I found myself competing with the delivery trucks and having to squeeze into a tight space. read more
Orange tonic is delicious: great combo of bubbly, bitter, sweet, and tart. I have never had a coffee tonic before, but this one is great, especially on a sunny day. February seasonal banana bread lattes (hojicha and matcha) were pretty. The banana taste for the matcha latte was a little too subtle for me, but the latte was solid otherwise. I hope they bring back the double strawberry matcha latte to try someday. read more

Arc is a small coffee shop in a small plaza in cypress. We saw it when driving by. Parking lot is SUPER small with SUPER small parking spaces. Even on a Wednesday at 1130 it was packed. The workers were so friendly. There were about 4 of them. Latte came out super fast. I ordered a cold brew with light ice and they actually asked if I wanted the cup full still. Most shops don't do that so that was a plus on my end! Drinks were not too sweet. I would come back but unfortunately the parking lot is something I wouldn't look forward to dealing with. read more
Stopped by this coffee shop after church and it was such a cute, minimalist spot! I tried their ube matcha. It was okay, not my favorite, but not bad either. If I'm back in the area, I'd definitely stop by again to try one of their other drinks. read more

I was dragged here by my daughter, mostly because she wanted me to pay for her coffee. We had the coconut matcha & honey butter latte. The sweetness in the coconut matcha is in the matcha cream top. They use coconut water vs DaVien seems to use coconut juice (much sweeter). At first impression I thought the drink could use a bit more sweetness. But you have to make sure to fully mix it. Once you do, the sweetness will be evenly distributed. If you like the sweetness level of DaVien's version, just an fyi that this won't be as sweet. I'm unsure if they can adjust the sweetness level. The matcha cream top was very creamy. Per my daughter: "i like how the honey flavor is very subtle and not overly fake. the espresso isn't burnt & it's very creamy. i wish there was more butter/salty flavor as it just tastes like a honey latte." We came here around 4:20 so it was close to closing time. I thought that they went above and beyond by offering us complimentary pastries instead of it going to waste. We got the Ube & matcha financiers. Both tasted like the flavor it claims to be. As a Filipino, I can't stand when something gets labeled as Ube and it's really just purple coloring. So it was nice to know they actually wanted to capture the flavor rather than just take advantage of the current ube craze. There were still quite a few people, some waiting for their drinks, others working on their laptops. There's bench seating on one side and seats with tables on the other. Music was a bit louder than I expected. So make sure you speak a little louder than normal when ordering to ensure accuracy. Overall, I'm glad to have another coffee shop in the neighborhood. read more
Community Goods dupe in OC?! I found this spot on TikTok and finally found the time to visit on Monday afternoon. They're located in a small strip mall off the corner of W Cerritos Ave and Valley View St. Their store is located in the right corner of the strip mall with very limited parking spaces available. I was fortunate enough to find a parking spot. It might be hard to find parking if it gets really busy. There's quite a few tables and chairs available in-store if you decide to sit down and enjoy your drink! I love their minimalist set-up with an off-white lightning inside! They also have a large body mirror so you can take mirror selfies with friends. I discovered them during their pop-up with Rocky's Matcha back in March and found out that they sell Rocky's tins in store! I decided to pick up a tin and they have a store promotion where you get a free drink when you purchase a tin. I got the matcha einspanner latte with whole milk as my free drink. They do offer milk substitutions! The matcha einspanner tasted exactly like Community Goods. They do use Rocky's matcha so that's the main similarity for the similar tasting drinks! The cream top was sweet but didn't overly cover the nuttiness of the drink. There were a few people coming in and out but they have one person taking orders and one person making drinks so I got mine relatively quickly after ordering. This is for sure a come-back since they don't have extremely long wait times! read more

So wonderful having a specialty coffee shop like this nearby! I've been here a couple times, and it's been a consistently good experience. PARKING: Pretty easy WHAT I'VE ORDERED: Iced honey butter latte Banana bread hojicha THE DRINK: The iced honey butter latte was great - really good espresso, and nicely sweetened. I will say it didn't taste too strongly/distinctly like honey butter like I expected, but still very delicious. I recently came back to try their new banana bread hojicha, and it was delicious! Besides the hojicha itself, the cream was not too sweet and overall it very much gave banana bread. I had a sip of my friend's matcha latte too and it was pretty solid. TIP: They sell containers of Rocky's!! I heard they might discount or comp your drink if you buy one? SERVICE: Great friendly service and drinks came out quick. VIBES: Nice for getting work done. Here's my work-from-coffee-shop checklist: * OUTLETS: A couple tables by outlets - not at all tables * WIFI/INTERNET: Yes, pretty good speed * BATHROOMS: Yes * VOLUME: Not too loud * SEATING AVAILABILITY: We went on a Sunday and there were some tables open. A lot of people going in and out for coffee to go * LAPTOP FRIENDLINESS: No restrictions we saw BOTTOM LINE: Definitely coming back - need to try more of their matcha drinks, knowing that they use Rocky's. read more
Came in today after picking up my son from school. New spot here in cypress/buena park I was pretty excited to come give it a try. It was good... but the vibe wasn't unfortunately for me. Not sure exactly why.... Just didn't feel welcoming like everyone says. Parking sucks.... Tiny menu by the cashier sucks, I wasn't ready on what to order and the cashier was just waiting (felt the pressure and stares lol) so I made my son order his. (Very tiny spot) Would I be back??? probably not. Glad we gave it a try. read more
