    Inflation BusterMenu Prices!
    Roberto S.

    This place is a hidden gem for breakfast and lunch. The best bargain in town that I know of. Jose has a lot of really great food he offers on the menu. My favorites on the menu are the chorizo breakfast burrito, all American and country slam. In this highly priced world of going out to eat, Cafe Newport makes it easier in your pocket while serving quality, and fairly portioned meals. I've introduced this to many of my friends in the area and now I'm recommending to the readers. Call ahead for the order so grab and go or grab then eat in the dining room. Either way you do it, you'll be glad you made it to the best bargain cafe in town. Check out their inflation buster prices!

    Club sandwich- didn't think it would be this tasty

    I'm still sitting here as I write this review because I'm that shook. The pricing compared to fast food places is incredible! The quality is great and the service is wonderful. You can tell this is Jose's passion- you can literally taste it. Not gonna lie it's confusing because it seems like most people who eat here work in the same building, BUT I just happened to be in the area for a meeting and looked up lunch spots. Decided to try this one out and I do not regret it! I'll be coming back every time I have meetings here!

    Coffee is nowhere near being considered good. Food is mediocre at best. I understand why there is no wait.

I loved the large painting on the wall depicting the rugged old west with a cow boy having a cup of coffee by the fire in the mountains. They have Different types of seating arrangements. The interior is modern with a comfortable lighting scene and wrap around floor to ceiling windows. They also have a large patio with more seating. I also noticed a fire place and a Television outside. Aside from their great coffee and Tea menu, they offer daily pastries, refreshments, small bites and coffee bean bags to go. I had the Horchata Latté with oat milk (available hot or cold). It was really good. It is made with 2 shots of their signature espresso with a house-made horchata syrup or base, steamed or iced milk, and a dusting of cinnamon. You could taste the quality of the coffee. It was really good. The coffee was a little strong. The service was great and prices are average. I really enjoyed hanging out in their shop with friends. They have several locations.

I had a shot of their milkblend espresso over ice and my friend tried the vanilla latte. We were severely disappointed. The espresso was very sour, acidic, and slightly bitter. The vanilla latte tasted like sweet milk. I do not recommend the drinks at all, unless that is your type of flavor profile. The ambiance is very nice, it cultivates a work study vibe, and it seems it's a stop for morning walkers/friends catching up. You can order at a kiosk at the entrance or with the cashier. It is straightforward service, but it took about 20 minutes for our 2 drinks on a Friday morning. There is plenty of parking as its in a shared plaza.

The service here is so kind and the staff helped us recommend drinks for our first time there. The cafe itself is small but there is a lot of seating options both inside and outside of it. I ordered the Blueberry Pie Matcha, which seemed to be a seasonal item and it genuinely tasted like a blueberry pie (would recommend for anyone who like really sweet lattes or a "sweet treat" type of drink). My friend ordered their famous "Thank You Berry Matcha" and I got to try it. It was super yummy, sweet but not too sweet and the strawberry matcha flavor was pleasant. The breakfast burrito was also good! I really liked the hot sauce it came with and it was a nice savory bite to pair with our drinks. My only complaint was that the Wi-Fi here wasn't seem to be connecting to any of my devices or my friend's (maybe this was user error on my behalf) but I would advise maybe staying inside the cafe if you want to get working Wi-Fi. Parking is also validated if you park at the parking garage behind Kit for 90 minutes! Overall, I'll definitely be back to try more of their drinks!

    Honestly disappointing, especially what appears to be good reviews of this place…read more The only positive factor I can remember is how much seating there is inside (lots of people just meeting up, working, etc). - You order on two available consoles, which you think would help with efficiency and workflow (it was pretty busy when I got there). However, it took my drink a while to come out. There was a sign above the consoles that indicate ETA of the drink. Based on the color I thought it would be a quick wait but it ended up taking 15 minutes. It seems like the coffee station, manned by one person it seems, was cranking out multiple drinks whereas the drink I got (matcha) took a long time - this is despite me being one of few matcha drinks ordered when I was waiting... - I noticed that as the barista was whisking my drink, she took the whisk out, took a look at the whisk then with her bare hands touched the tip of the whisk and reinserted it into the cup.. all without washing her hands or using gloves... I honestly wanted to say something but I was already in a rush and didn't want to make a scene at an already busy hour and the barista looked kind of frazzled already... - If you are hoping for a strong matcha, this isn't the place to go to. I got the blueberry matcha, which was a pale green in a color and it tasted like a premade mix of blueberry matcha.. although calling it matcha may be a bit generous as the drink just tasted like blueberry milk...Not sure if I'll be coming back.. not for matcha any way

    Not a single miss in their pastries which is impressive…read more Salt bread is truly the blueprint of how all salt breads should taste. Slightly crispy shell while chewy and airy. Not too salty just the perfect amount. Green onion bread was packed w cream cheese, allowing for a creamy and herby bite each time. Apple swirl brioche is soooo chewy and soft. The softest bread of all. Could use some more apple filling but still tasty and not too sweet. They recommend their cruffins and they were right. SOOO LIGHT AND AIRY. Could be a bit crispier to stay true to an authentic croissant, but it was so soft and delicate. The Earl gray custard filling was dreamy, so fragrant and floral. 10/10 The seasonal tart was a grape tart and it was also delicious even tho I ate it 2 days later. Still soft and grapes stayed crunchy. Cream is a bit thicker but the pastry is airy so complemented one another well. The matcha is also solid. It's creamy and bitter, but some how the matcha taste is a bit lacking? I'm not sure how to explain it in any other way. The banana pudding had crunchy sugary bits that added nice texture.

Its gorg and i was tempted to get a ton! We ended up just choosing a salt bread and the seasonal danish which was the green grape one! I also recall loving their matcha latte so i wanted to try it again. They def raised their prices. I remember it being pretty affordable and cheaper than other bakeries, and i swear their matcha was also like $6 but it was $6.50 today with most pastries being over $5! Our total for 3 items was $18.36 so it was super pricey!!! They offered to warm up our salt bread which was nice, but even with it toasted it was still underwhelming. It wasnt very crispy at all, i thought it was underbaked as in it needed to be baked longer to get crispy. Otherwise it was fine - tasted like bread but not salt bread. The danish was gorg, but also not good. I recall their croissants always always always being bready and this one was no different. This one was super bready and dissapointing. The filling was yummy and graps were sweet but i expect a bakery to know how to make a good croissant..... The matcha latte was good, but with paying extra for oat milk it's now just as expensive as other places so i dont think its worth going back. Overall dissapointed, i wont be back :( its really a shame bc their stuff is so cute and i love bakeries but it's overpriced and their stuff isnt that good
