    maple oat latte
    Mollie P.

    Such a cute shop! Plenty of parking, lots of seating inside, great if you're wanting to go somewhere to work. Inside is very clean and spacious. Service was patient and friendly. Made my drink SO fast. I'd get the coffee over the matcha here. My friend got the matcha, I tried a sip and it was a bit milky for my liking but I did enjoy the coffee, cream top is a much needed addition.

    Of course I became a regular... Bada hits everytime. It's just every drink they have is amazing. The consistency is there. The quality is there. I alternate between their Spanish latte and their mojito lemonade. They're both sooooOOoOOoOoOOoOooOOo good. I love love love love love love love bada. Highly recommend Spanish latte for coffee and the mojito lemonade for something more bubbly, citrusy and acidic. But also VERY refreshing.

    Mocha
    Anjanette J.

    I'm a sucker for a good mocha -- I will literally drive across town for one So when I say the mocha at Bada Coffee exceeded my expectations... I mean it really exceeded them. Smooth, rich, perfectly balanced -- not too sweet, not too bitter -- just chef's kiss from the first sip to the last. If you're a mocha lover like me, this spot is 100% worth the trip. I've officially added it to my "must-return" list

    Spanish latte and matcha cloud
    Ginna S.

    I have passed by this coffee shop quite a few times and finally had the chance to stop by. The parking was easy and the indoor aesthetic minimalist in a positive way. It isn't the largest coffee shop I've been to but there is outdoor seating by the fountain and a few places indoors as well. I could see how this shop could get super busy because it's located right next to a high school. I was warmly welcomed into the shop and my order was taken promptly. Upon recommendation by the barista, I ordered an iced Spanish latte and a Matcha cloud to enjoy. The Spanish Latte had a slight sweet touch and the coffee was not overpowered. The Matcha came with a crème top that complimented the matcha as well. Both drinks were well balanced and not overly sweet. Being a person who likes to frequent coffee shops, my overall experience in regard to service and ambiance are positive. It was also interesting to see a robot pull my shot instead of a person (yes, really). The quality of the drinks themselves were also good. If I lived closer, this local coffee shop would be one I'd be a regular at.

    I finally made it here! I had bookmarked this coffee spot a while back and it slipped my mind. Glad I came in! Bada Coffee is in the Plaza Mayor Shopping Center, off PCH. This space used to be a Starbucks but it has nicely been transformed into a modern sleek coffee shop. I placed my order and waited for my drinks. I noticed there was a robotic arm busy working! How interesting! It's called a Wingman Cobot... this one is Tom. He pulls shots. You can watch him from start to finish. Then the barista takes the shot to assemble your coffee beverage. My lattes looked lovely with the nice latte art. I enjoyed my Spanish Latte with condensed milk, roasted hazelnut, espresso, and cinnamon! It was a tad bit sweet, so I had hubby add more coffee to it when I got home. You can get tea, matcha (also tea, I know), and lemonade here. What I find interesting is that they only make & sell one cup size of hot coffee. They sell cookies and pastries but none have a price on them. It would be nice to know even though it seems to be the norm at a lot of smaller coffee shops! There are a few seating options inside as well as the communal patio outside near the fountain. I would definitely consider a return visit! I'd like to try the bada fog or hojicha.

    Small vibey coffee shop! My first time going I was pleasantly surprised because the quality of the drinks were GREAT for a decently normal price! Especially for a good FLAVORED (I got mango) matcha drink I was very happy. I was hesitant to try the mango matcha at first but it was soooooooo good I totally would recommend and will be getting it again. They have a few seats. Communal table (no outlets though), a small counter by the window next to an outlet, and lots of outdoor seating in the courtyard. Plenty of parking in the lot and a bathroom for customers. Great wifi and i got some work done on my laptop here! It was so fun and delicious! They opened up last summer and im so excited to see them grow. I hope they expand the indoor seating. Can't wait to come back :)

    Good coffee, nice location. Bada Coffee replaced Starbucks that used to be at the corner. It's located in a plaza with plenty of parking and next to South High School. There's seatings inside which is nice for students to study after school. I ordered iced mocha ($6). It was pretty good. They put a lot of ice in my opinion for like 12-16oz cup. They sell lots of delicious looking pastries. Was getting big lunch so I skipped trying them out. They have robotic arm that makes the espresso! I would come back again. It has modern, nice interior which is welcoming. My dentist place is in the same plaza so convenient to stop by afterwards.

    Came here to grab some matcha before heading to the beach! There's lots of parking in the plaza mayor. There's plenty of seating inside and outside by the beautiful fountain. The staff was friendly and kind. They had a cool robotic arm that makes coffee or matcha? Wish I got to see that in action looked so cool! I ordered a matcha latte w oat milk, i know very basic but the heart wants what the heart wants! The matcha was so good! Perfectly umami and nutty and not too sweet :) I will be back again for sure to try their other drinks.

    maple cardomom iced latte
    Gabby P.

    I visited and tried their seasonal drink, the cardamom maple latte. It was good, and I think I like the taste of their blend. However the cardamom flavor was very strong so I couldn't taste it too well I happen to enjoy strong flavors like cardamom so I thought it was tasty! Their drinks don't run too sweet. Not much seating inside but it's clean and cutely decorated. Overall I liked it and would go back again if I'm in the area!

    Bada Fog. One of their popular drinks. Just sweet enough and like a dessert.
    Toshi I.

    Not bad! Its Bada...lol. I like the change from the franchisey Starbucks to this more modern café take and the mood here is more of calmness and simplicity. I enjoyed my Bada Fog drink. It was more like a dessert! Will be back to try more items.

    Hojicha
    An C.

    Had the Hojicha Latte, Iced with whole milk. It was delicious! This drink came out in about a minute, no joke. Open and spacious cafe with a cool espresso machine and good drinks!

    Maple Oat Latte
    Christina W.

    One of the top lattes I've had, and the best Maple Oat Latte I've ever had. What makes this one stand out vs other coffee shops is the consistency. It was noticeably smooth and airy - in a really good way. That's the best way I can think to describe it. It wasn't overly sweet like other maple lattes I've had too. Everything about it was just harmonious. The staff was kind and walked me through the menu as it was my first time there. Interior seemed clean and modern. When I went, all the indoor tables were full but there isn't too much seating there. I was able to sit outside on the tables there. Can't wait to try more drinks.

    All the matcha
    Mark H.

    Stopped by on a Saturday morning for matcha with the kiddo. First of all, the layout is more spacious than you'd expect. Minimalist and modern coffee house vibe. Then you see the robot arm ripping espresso shots at the espresso bar. Very cool experience and a a glimpse of the future. Staff is friendly and efficient. Now to the important part. I ordered a hot matcha latte. Had the option of sweet or not. Went with sweet and it was perfect. Great balance of matcha flavor popping through, with a sweet finish. Rich and frothy. 10/10. Daughter got an iced strawberry matcha. She rated it a 9/10 but also finished it before we were out of the parking lot. I had a sip and it was great. All in all, great spot to pop in for a high quality caffeine boost. Worth your hard earned dollars. Will be back for sure.

    Hi there! I love trying new coffee shops and I was wondering if you sift your matcha prior to using a bamboo whisk? :)

    Hello Genevieve, thank you for reaching out! We use ceremonial matcha from Uji, Japan. We prepare our hot matcha by precisely measuring, sifting, and using a traditional bamboo whisk to froth the matcha base. For our cold matcha beverages, we use…

I got there close to 6pm and everyone was so nice. The lady that took my order was friendly and welcoming. I got their Mango Sticky Matcha. It was pretty interesting. Loved that it has a rich matcha flavor and mango sticky flavor didn't overpower the drink. If anything, it complimented well with the matcha. I love it and would absolutely order it again. Unfortunately, they didn't have any pastries left other than a couple bagels. I wanted to try their croissants but maybe next time when I'm in the area again. The place is super clean and organized. They have a wifi, an outlet, a couple tables for single or multiple customers as well as comfy couches. The restroom was also clean and smells great. Highly recommend this place. Not only was I able to complete so many tasks but was also able to just relax. Loved the vibe here!

One thing that…read moreimmediately caught my attention was that they offer grass jelly as a topping, one of my favorites. I ordered their summer special, the HK Matcha Latte, made with matcha, milk, brown sugar, and of course grass jelly. It was smooth, refreshing, and the perfect drink for a warm day. My husband customized his own fruit-infused tea with lychee jelly and salted cold foam, and he really enjoyed his combination as well. The shop has a handful of small tables and seats, and we got to relax and enjoy our drinks. Keep in mind that the tables are on the smaller side. If you're planning to work or study there, you'll probably only have enough room for a laptop and not much else. Overall, it's a great addition to our boba rotation.

    This coffee bar is incredible, there is almost always a wait (especially during noon so prepare for…read morethat) but it's always 100% worth it. Their coffee is phenomenal. I have gone with a few people many times and our favorites are: the Spanish latte, Mexican Chai, Chai Latte, and Mocha Latte. The Spanish latte is especially good, and the Chai latte is the best I have had in my life it's so well made. The Mexican Chai I can only describe as a cinnamon heaven with the best Chai base flavor ever. The Mocha latte is heavy in the best way possible, it's super strong and I love it. The best part I think for all the drinks is the baristas do not hold back on the coffee, and you always get your moneys worth. None of it is water down, and it's such a great pick me up. I can't really speak on the Matcha cause no one in my group has tried it since we aren't really big Matcha enjoyers. But I have been told that the strawberry Matcha is transcendent and absolutely fantastic. They have a bunch of Matcha flavor options as well, which would be amazing if I was a Matcha connoisseur, but unfortunately, I'm not . So I can't really speak well on that yet, but have only told fantastic things about it. The workers are all kind and work really fast so you get your drinks really quickly even though the line is pretty long. I will say the best time to go and get drinks is around in the morning when they open around 7:30 on the weekends. Again I have to restate wait is always 100% worth it for the amazing quality drinks you will get. I also forgot to mention the fact, you can customize your drinks to have different types of milk and they also have a bunch of other vegan food options as well. I think this is amazing even though my group doesn't really get those options, because I've been told even when people change out the milk, it taste the exact same, which I think is absolutely incredible. (Side note I may update this when I take a photo next time I go because I always forget to before I put on the top on and start drinking ) The experience is great. The drinks are absolutely incredible and the workers are very nice and very helpful.5/5 stars

Made with coconut, macadamia syrup, and oat milk by default, it had a perfectly balanced, tropical flavor--great for vegans or the lactose intolerant. However, it's not the best spot for working or studying. The WiFi was so slow that I had to use my personal hotspot, and the seating consists of benches and mini tables that aren't comfortable for long periods. There are a few outlets, but you have to cross the street to a food court to use the bathroom. They have a shared parking lot out front. I'll definitely be back for the Island Matcha, but not to get work done!

So take this as a sign to try their experimental bevs that aren't on the traditional menu if you get a chance!

For this reason, I'm usually in for a quick pick me up and out.
