Love Brot! With its grey walls, dark wood furniture, greenery, and soft jazz music, it is a nice place to either chat with friends or do work on your laptop. Lots of outlets, but not so comfy chairs lol Service was quick and friendly. We ordered a seasonal latte (maple sugar rosemary) and a vanilla latte. Good, but a little too sweet for our tastebuds. The avocado toast was delicious though! The lemony seasoning truly brought out the flavors in all the ingredients. The sourdough was perfectly toasted and the toppings were just right (not too overloaded so that everything is constantly falling off as you take a bite). We went on a Sunday around 10am and the place was packed! Of course, for good reason! read more

This is arguably the BEST coffee shop in OC !!! I've been coming here for a few years now and the staff are beyond friendly and the managers are always greeting you. Once you become a regular they will greet you by your name which says a lot about them. Idk what magical coffee beans they use but it's seriously good coffee. None of that Starbucks sugary bs. I always make sure to take a trip here before work to start my day off right :) read more

I recently started coming here and really enjoy getting the Kühl blended coffee. The staff is incredibly kind and the atmosphere is welcoming as a great place to chill or study. I'll be back to try more from their coffee selection! read more

Service is the best here. Pretty busy in the mornings. Coffee is pretty solid though I always just get americanos.. Tried the banana squaw bread thing and it was good. Good enough to keep me coming back every few months! read more

This is hands down my fav coffee spot in OC. Quality with affordability is increasingly a rarity, yet Brot never disappoints. I got the matcha latte today with cinnamon swirl brioche toast. The matcha was had a distinctly earthy flavor, one that made me smile. The cinnamon swirl brioche toast was golden and needed no toppings besides butter. Absolutely delicious. Service was speedy and friendly. And the cafe has wonderful natural lighting. Thanks for making my morning yall. read more

I haven't been to Brot coffee in a while, but I decided to pay a visit because I moved back to the area. It was just how I remembered and I was exited to try their coffee again. My boyfriend and I both ordered a large honey lavender iced latte which was pretty good. The lattes had an equal balance of coffee and flavor. I ordered the e.a.t toast without egg and I will say it was very average. If it had more avocado and was toasted for less time it would have been perfect. The avorito looked a tad bit underwhelming, but it was exactly what the menu said it was. The baristas were very nice and accommodating and it was busier and a little smaller than I remember inside. I'm excited to go back for their coffee again. read more

I visited this spot recently. I was fairly surprised at the size and seating amount. It is a nice sized cafe and I really loved the plant decorations. I ordered a protein snack bowl and a hot mocha. The mocha tasted like most but it wasn't too sweet so I liked that. I really liked the protein bowl! It was a perfect little breakfast snack to enjoy while I studied. The service was quick and the employees were helpful. Of course I must mention parking! It was easy! It's located in a small shopping center lot. I'll definitely be back again. read more

I've been to this spot a few times and typically get the kühls. I hadn't been here in years, but was in the area for a training and stopped by for coffee. I again ordered a kühl, the chai with oat milk and four shots of espresso. It ends up being quite pricey, with each shot being an additional dollar. It was quite busy this morning, and my drink was good, but not very flavorful. The owner(I think) is very friendly and kind of the one who greets and engages with customers. There is a lot of space to study or chat inside, and they also have outdoor seating. read more

Loved our coffees! We got a caramel latte and the May special, the Mexican mocha. Both beautiful and delicious.

Conveniently located in an older shopping center, but a true stand out. I was a little taken back by the line upon entering. Turns out it was about a 5 minute wait, so not bad at all. Once I ordered, everything was ready in minutes. Very efficient system they have and it's obvious watching staff work in the open concept coffee shop. Ample seating was available. Many people fining in and also working remotely. The protien bowl was delicious, affordable, albeit definitely needs to have at least 2 eggs to be a sufficient meal. All in all, I'd order it again. A matcha latte was enjoyable, just not memorable. A little light in flavor. Much more menunti explore, so I'll be back!! Perfect pick me up Great prices Line but once order, out fast read more

We discovered BROT coffee a year ago after visiting my newborn nephew in the hospital across the street. We had been on a personal coffee tour of places all around Orange County for about 6 months prior to our first visit and now I find it hard to want to try any other place! We come for breakfast and coffee at least once (if not 2-3x) a week and we've always experienced warm and friendly service. Our favorites are an iced caramel latte with oat milk (half sweet), the EAT toast, and their Belgian waffles. This place always makes my day!! read more

Have been coming here for years. Hands down my favorite place for toast and teas. Their coffee is good too but their ambience makes me always crave teas. Love their monthly specials, always have to try them. Everything I've tried, I loved. Just try it all! read more

You love bread? I love love bread!! This is a great coffee shop that has a variety of bread and topping options to serve it. I went for a simple with pumpernickel, bananas, and almond butter. Delectable. Their coffee is simple and straightforward, nothing too fancy. They have monthly specials that would be a great reason to go back and check out. Over July was peaches, cream or cheese (I can't recall) on toast, it was very sweet. read more

I stumbled upon this cafe in search of a place to do some work. The ambiance is great, lots of plants, quiet environment, plenty of seating. I enjoy that they do bread options! So many different flavors and toppings. I had the smores toast, it was pretty good. I also had an iced flat white, I really enjoyed their coffee blend. Definitely a great spot, I would be willing to come back :) read more

First time at this place and service was great! As soon as we walked in we were welcomed!! I ordered a Flat white with oat milk and a Cafe mocha with oat milk. The Flat white was super hot I couldn't really drink it. It was okay but wasn't great. The Cafe mocha was not my favorite felt so watery. This place has so much seating indoor and outdoor! I would have loved to give this place 5/5 because customer service was exceptional but based on coffee I wasn't a big fan! read more

My weekly cafe tour 2024 continues on and this week I decided to stay close to home! I've been in the city of orange for 2.5 years and like many others, I have noticed this coffee shop while driving by but never made the effort to stop by until today. I am glad I did. In terms of parking, it is a busy parking lot but part of the reason is because lanes in front of the business are only one way. However, I found parking in the front pretty easily. Upon walking in, they have tables on the side of the building for you to use. Before entering I was hoping there would be a table to sit at to study and I was glad there were some spots open even though the shop was quite busy. When I ordered I asked a few questions since it was my first time. I asked for the sweetest coffee and was recommended the caramel latte. I'm not a big fan of caramel but I decided to try it since it was recommended but of course I asked for extra ice. I also tried their January special, the cinnamon brulee toast and the TOM toast. I wanted something both savory and sweet. Once I got all my items I tried them and im happy to say they were all good. Coffee was sweet just how I like it and the coffee flavor was just right. The TOM was simple but delicious. Its just toast with butter, olive oil, tomatoes, mozzarella, and some seasonings. This dish reminds me that often times the most simple foods are the most tasty. Love it! The cinnamon toast was also delicious. I ate half of it and saved the other half for a snack later on during the day. If there was any room for improvement I would say if they made their whipped cream in house (which i dont think they do), it would elevate the experience that much more. Service was decent, food is simple yet enjoyable. Ambiance is an A+. Lots of tables. I am also going through my toast era and am very tempted to buy a loaf of bread from here before I leave. ;) read more

Really loved this coffee shop. What I loved most was the ambiance. It's very calm and they have plenty of seating. Their decor is cute with plants throughout. The food was also really good. I highly recommend the E.A.T. toast. It includes hard boiled egg, avocado, and tomatoes. The seasoning on top is also delicious. I ordered the iced vanilla latte and enjoyed that as well. It was pretty strong which I like but still had that vanilla flavor. Overall, it's a great place to get some work done or just enjoy their food and drinks. read more

While visiting from Chicago, I found this gem and it became my daily go to while in Cali. The staff is absolutely incredible, my hot caramel macchiato was the best I've ever had. In fact, I took their espresso beans back home with me. The barista as nice enough to roast them for me while I waited. The ambiance is very comfy and cozy. The prices are very reasonable, cheaper than the "corporate" locations. read more

I've been to Brot Coffee a few times in the past, but was recently in the area with a couple of hours to kill before an event. Parking out front is always a bit cramped, but have never had a problem finding a spot. In the late afternoon, there were plenty of open seats and tables. I ordered a hot chai latte and the TOM toast. The butter and bread itself was so flavorful and delicious that I almost ordered a second piece of toast just with butter! That chai was warm and spicy and hit the spot. I was able to get a good amount of work in while I was at Brot with a stable wifi connection and ample outlets. People come and go so I might recommend some noise-canceling headphones if you get distracted easily by all the hustle and bustle. The service was also unremarkable - the staff is not rude, but gave very "a job is a job" type of vibes. Brot does close shop pretty early compared to other nearby coffee shops, so while I wouldn't go out of my way to visit, it is a nice treat when you happen to find yourself in the area. read more

Amazing coffee drinks & bread selection. You can buy whole loafs to take home (coffee & grocery shopping at the same time, yes please!) also it's incredibly cute and cozy inside. And the parking is easy. This place has everything to love about it! read more

Did they changed the ratios of their lattes? I used to go to this coffee shop all the time before moving away, this time I was in town and decided to stop by since they were my favorite coffee shop but it wasn't as bold as I remember. It was more milky. It was made by a younger girl I've never seen before, so not sure if she made my order right. Either way I will try it again next time I'm in town. read more

Got tired of driving by and saying "I'm gonna check this place out" and am very glad I made the decision to drop in. Brot has achieved the concept of an authentically rustic coffee shop in terms of both decor and drink quality. Seating isn't too hard to find and it's pretty sizable, which doesn't appear obvious from the outside. All of the baristas are so kind and well-informed of the menu and helped me finalize my choices of an iced maple rosemary latte and E.A.T. toast on garlic rosemary toast. Food and drink came out in less than 10 minutes. Maple Rosemary Latte: Like other reviews suggest, Brot definitely uses coffee flavorings to accentuate the taste of the coffee rather than mask it - neither the maple nor the rosemary particularly stood out, instead adding another layer of subtle complexity to the coffee. E.A.T. Toast: highly recommend get this on the garlic rosemary toast. The sweet and earthy tomato and avocado offer a great contrast to the heavier taste of egg and butter on the toast, and the smattering of various seasonings rounds off the dish really nicely. I honestly might buy a loaf of the garlic rosemary toast every so often to try and make this at home. I'll definitely be back to either study or just hang out with friends! read more

Delicious coffee that actually tastes like coffee. No bitter notes, not overly sweet. The staff were also super sweet. I'll be back!

This was my second time visiting this coffee shop and am still impressed with the quality of their bread! It's a clean taste and doesn't feel too heavy either. I ordered the T.O.M with the rosemary and garlic bread instead of the Italian bread. Also got tomatoes on the side for my mom to eat since I'm allergic to tomatoes. I requested light sweet on the matcha latte and it tasted as if there was no sugar (which wasn't a dealbreaker for me) so I assume the regular amount of sugar is not sweet either (a plus considering how many cafes over-sweeten their drinks). As for the bigger sized drink in the photo, it's a large hot americano which we weren't a fan of because it was too acidic. All of the workers are nice and friendly and provided extra utensils and water promptly upon request. The one downside is that it took awhile to get our food order. Not sure why but hopefully speed of service can be improved! Will be back soon! read more

This place is all about the vibes! Cool music (usually jazz), indoor plants, industrial chic. Oh, and the breads! Given the name "Brot" (German for "bread"), it's as much a bakery as it is a coffee shop. Sourdough, rye, even challah! And on Saturday, they usually have Kouign Amann available as well. Their coffee/espresso offerings are solid, of course, but their toasts, homemade jams, and friendly/mellow staff are what really stand out and keep me coming back. My only complaint is that they close so early! read more
