Cassel Earth serves up delicious coffee and matcha that is rivaled only by its exceptional customer service! We tried the latte, strawberry matcha and scone. Everything was TASTY. We especially appreciated that they validated our parking and there was plenty of cozy seating inside and outside to choose from. We look forward to being repeated customers! read more

Found CASSEL EARTH COFFEE on Yelp and was curious to try it because of all their reviews and menu options. However, I was skeptical because it's located in a big office building, but I was so pleasantly surprised. I ordered an iced decaf banana latte, which is the drink that drew me to this place, and it was absolutely delicious. Definitely my favorite iced banana latte! I love that they truly care about their craft. I initially ordered my drink with almond milk, but the barista highly recommended oat milk, as it would go better with my drink. She also showed me the best way to enjoy the coffee -- sip first before mixing. I'm in Irvine once a week, and more often than not, I'm grabbing a coffee from here on my way home. My go-to is the banana latte, but I decided to venture out and try their coconut latte recently and let me tell you... I might love that just as much, if not more, than my banana latte. My drinks here are always consistent -- delicious every time. The coffee is never overpowered by the flavor or milk. This makes me comfortable to try other drinks on their menu next time. Not only is the coffee shop great, but so is the building it is located in. The shop is found on the ground floor, straight ahead as you enter. The building offers so many seating areas and has such great lighting. If I lived closer, this would definitely be my go-to place to get some work or reading done. Parking has never been an issue for me, and they do offer validation that is good for 1 hour, I believe. Overall, no notes for Cassel. I absolutely love this place and will recommend them to anyone and everyone! read more

Such a beautiful space for a coffee shop! I think it's primarily meant for the corporate offices located in this big space but I stopped by on a Friday morning and was able to find a parking spot and get validated for an house with purchase. The line was wrong but it moved quickly. I went with the pistachio oat milk latte and a ham and cheese croissant. The latte was delicious, sweet but not too sweet and the pistachio flavor was nice, not artificial at all. The croissant was also delicious, very flaky. Highly recommend you add this spot to your OC coffee collection! read more

Another great latte and breakfast at Cassel Earth Coffee. Love their latte - rich, smooth and great tasting. The croissants were warm, crunchy and fill you up for breakfast. I love the great service from the staff, bringing our order to our distant location within the atrium. Ambiance is super airy and opened. Will be back again soon. read more

Fantastic hidden gem! Found this place on social media and decided to give it a try during my workday. I got the agave latte and it was perfection, couldn't ask for a better latte. The cashier was very personable and kind as well. Can't forget the seating are too, which was quite aesthetically pleasing. The only drawback to this place that's keeping it from being perfect is its accessibility. I believe they only had 1 hr of validated parking. I understand that the parking policy may not be in their control but I truly believe that a longer parking validation timeframe would make this place more worthwhile. read more

I finally got the chance to try this spot after seeing it all over social media. Like many up and coming coffee shops in Orange County, it's located in the large ground floor atrium of a commercial building. The atrium itself has a beautiful lobby with tons of seating, although the Wi Fi isn't great. Pro tip: if you have Cox WiFi at home, you can log into a Cox WiFi hub in the lobby. The drink selection was relatively robust, though the pastry selection is limited. That said, everything we tried was clearly well made and delicious. I had the Ethiopia pour over , which was excellent, and my friend ordered a latte that was amazing. What really sets this place apart is the service. The baristas are incredibly helpful, they bring your drinks out to you in the lobby, and during our visit they were even apologetic about the latte art and foam because of the almond milk. Honestly, the drink still looked amazing regardless. One thing to keep in mind is parking. You'll need to park in the garage, and they validate for up to an hour. If you're planning to stay longer to work or catch up with someone, that could be a downside. read more

All I can say is, wow! Came on a Monday morning. It was a little difficult to find as it is in an office building. You have to get a ticket for parking, BUT luckily the coffee place validates it. Ordering was simple and quick. The shop itself is small with plenty of shared lobby/office seating scattered around the building. The coffee itself was amazing. It was not sour at all, and is on par with Kona coffee. The staff were also very friendly! Then I discovered that this was voted top 100 coffee spots in the US and it all made sense! Would love to come back. read more

I wish I could give this place a 4.5 or a 5! We order 2 pastries, 1 banana latte iced and 1 pistachio oat milk latte! The banana latte was great at first sip but lost a little flavor once the milk was stirred in. The pistachio latte was heavier on the oat milk flavor than the pistachio. Service was fact, efficient and very kind and helpful! Staff did suggest to stay as the drink would taste better for here than to-go, but I couldn't stay. Pastries were tasty, especially the mini loaf. The surrounding atmosphere was also very welcoming. A great spot to study, work or enjoy a quiet conversation with a friend. Live that the validate for an hour! Definitely worth going back to try again! read more

Came back after a couple years and this place is still just as special. Q & Joy continue to bring such a warm, welcoming energy that makes you want to stay and hang out a bit longer. You can tell they genuinely care about both their craft and their community. The coffee is still consistently great--smooth, flavorful, and made with attention to detail every time. And yeah... the baked goods are still a must. Fresh, soft, and honestly just as good as I remembered (maybe even better). It's rare to find a spot that keeps its quality and vibe over time, but this place absolutely delivers. Easily one of my favorite coffee stops to come back to. read more

Cassel Earth Coffee - Strawberry Matcha Latte, Banana Latte, & a cinnamon roll - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Irvine, California

A close to perfection you can get at a coffee shop. This low key place in the corner of a business building atrium. The coffee and service is excellent. Atmosphere is cool with plenty spots to sit including some beautiful modern furniture like Eames chairs. As good as Blue Bottle's early days without the attitude. My iced Spanish latte was one of the best. Not too sweet and packed with flavor. Love it. read more

I was going to be in the area of Irvine for the day and lucky me this coffee shop came across my feed. What decided me to go was that it was rated top 100 in yelp. Since iced banana lattes have been the most popular summer drink I decided to order one myself. Probably one of the best banana lattes I have had so far. The staff were extremely friendly where we manage to have a little chat. One of them was kind enough to give me a sample of their cold brew and it was very smooth! Highly recommended this place and I'm looking forward to my next visit. read more

This coffee shop is located in a corporate business office area. Interior design of this place is intricate and beautiful. Lots of places to study (with tables) or catch up. However, it is paid parking with up to 2 hours for validation. The staff were so kind and friendly and helped with recommendations. Ordered the Matcha Latte hot which was absolutely delicious and cutely designed with a bear. As well as a Hojicha Latte (cold) to go - had a toasty/nutty flavor to it. Definitely would like to come back and try their other drinks. read more

Owned by Koreans, Koreans for the win! Two males were making the drinks. One gal was taking the orders and putting straws into the drinks. Seems as if their matcha drinks are more popular (than their espresso drinks). I ordered the matcha cold brew since it was unheard of. The gal taking the orders was kind to explain the drinks to literally every customer. She just asked if whole milk was OK with me. Therefore, I wasn't expecting the drink to be sweet at all so the sweetness caught me off guard. I was in work out clothes so slightly annoyed she immediately assumed I needed a parking validation... $1.50 for alternative milk products (oat, almond) $1.50 for 15 minute parking Located WITHIN a business center/a high rise. Love the interior modern decor. Would I come back? With the plentiful options available in the area, I'd avoid the troubles with parking and having to walk a distance plus be judged. So no. I wouldn't come back. I gave this place 4 stars because their drinks are smooth (no bitter after tastes), quick to make the drinks, and crazy wait times. read more

Located in the lobby of the Atrium building. They will validate your parking. Friendly service and good coffee. I recommend the Banana Latte or Spanish latte. The pistachio latte is refreshing, it is also called Michaels. They also have lots of pastry options. Once you get your drink, there are lots of seats available in the lobby. It is super chill here. Soft music in the background and lots of people reading books read more

Good latte w Monin syrup , for $6 a cup . The coffee shop is in the Atrium , which is a huge office park surrounded by a maze of parking lots . If you're not familiar with this area , good luck finding it - my gps took me to a lot in the rear & I looked for 10 minutes asking people , where's the Atrium??? ( there's no signs!) Finally found it & a wait of a 15 person line. Unless you work in the nearby area , it may not be worth the effort making a special trip here , cause of the hassles involved ! read more

This cafe was situated in such a neat place! It was large and open with plenty of seating and it kind of was reminiscent of a food court, but elevated! The coffee was AMAZING and the worker was super nice. The only thing I would say that wasn't amazing was the parking, I'm not sure if there is anywhere else to park nearby that is free but it's paid parking but you can get it validated if you go to the cafe. It's kind of a hassle to get in there but it's well worth it ! read more

They're seriouuusssss about their coffee here! I got a cortado and my partner got the mugwort matcha, both were so so good. Amazing service and amazing coffee (and matcha) Get your ticket validated on your way out :) read more

OKKKK THIS WAS AMAZING!! I have to give this 5 stars because everything was spectacular about this place. I ordered the strawberry matcha latte and it came out perfectly balance I wish they had sizes because it was that good! Not many matcha places around here are good, so I am glad I came across this place. It is in an office building and that was the only inconvenience. They do validate parking, but the space is so cool there that you'd want to stay there for longer than an hour. The service was great here. The barista walked us through the menu and made great recs. She also knew it was our first time, so gave us an extra validation ticket so we can explore for an extra hour without getting charged. I have been dying to come back but they are closed on the weekends, so I will need to make time to come back and try their other drinks! read more

Updating my review after being a loyal customer for almost 3 years!!! I am a loyal customer for the reason that they have the best coffee & customer service! Everyone who has attended me has always been so sweet and they always make sure we like our drinks! My go to coffee is always the Flat White as Q always makes it perfect! The Banana Latte is also one of my top favorites! You honestly can't go wrong here!!! I also have tried both Tonics and they are so refreshing! The orange strawberry tonic tastes like Fanta which I love! I love the new menu and the new additions added! The Matcha Cold Brew is also so good! Perfect combination! Definitely a place worth checking out!!! read more

A cozy cofffe shop nestled in an abundant spacious atrium with soft jazz in the background. They have plenty of seating for anyone who wants to sit and sip their coffee. The staff is super friendly and opn to have a conversation with the their customers, it's refreshing. They are also super fast with their service especially with long lines. I ordered the Hot Vanilla Latte, which was rich, creamy, and smooth with every sip. It was very good. I will definitely be coming back for another experience. read more

Holy smoothness! I ordered three different drinks, and all were wonderful! The star of the trio was the Korean Mugwort Matcha. My son ended up stealing my drink, because it was so good! I will order again, if I have the chance. They were out of hojicha, which is what we initially went for. I wish the customer service was a bit more inviting, because I really like engagement when I visit a new establishment. Tell me about your drinks and what you are known for. This place is located inside of a multi-business building, and they have a parking garage with parking validation. They do have tables and seating areas, with a library vibe. read more

Ok, these guys know quality coffee. Cassel Earth Coffee absolutely rocks. Let's start with the service. DK and the team (I forget the name of the other two guys) are so warm, friendly, knowledgeable, and eager to please. It's clear that they take pride in their craft. And the result of that? Five-star drinks. Onto the coffee. We got the hojicha, matcha, and Spanish lattes, + a cup of drip. All of the drinks are balanced, smooth, satisfying, and delicious. I'm taking top-tier caffeine here. Interesting location inside a business park. But the area is modern, clean, and cozy. Great spot to kill a few hours reading or working. I can see why Cassel Earth Coffee is voted a top coffee place in the nation. These guys are very deserving of that honor! read more

Great coffee spot in Irvine in a corporate building. Love the atrium style cafes because there's plenty of seating for people to study or have business meetings around. The staff/owners of the cafe are SO NICE - they put a lot of care and attention into the customer experience and into their food/drinks. Coffee was pretty good - definitely above average and way better quality than coffee from the common chains. 3 stars because I honestly have had better coffee flavors at other spots and I feel their pastry selection could be better. read more

Found this spot on Google! 5 stars with over 100 reviews! Had to come here. Free parking for up to an hour with purchase. Walk into the beautiful atrium with plenty of seating. It's so serene and quiet - so many options for sitting by the cafe or away for more quiet convos. We ordered a mocha to go. You can get drinks to dine in, served in pretty mugs. The drink was delicious! Shout out to the guys working there - one was at the register and another was making the drinks! The guy was very welcoming. Would come back here again! read more

Quite possibly the best caffeinated beverage I've had all year.. and that's saying something since I'm about 50 lattes deep. You might assume that being located in an corporate business complex makes Cassel Earth hard to access. Errr, wrong! This place has easy parking, free validation, and enough seating to fit an army. Once you enter the parking gates, there's a ton of 20-minute to 1-hour parking spots available to visitors. After entering the Atrium's front doors, you'll want to find go straight back to find Cassel's small booth. I ordered the Pistachio oat latte, which had a leading taste of espresso.. my favorite. One of the hardest things to find in today's coffee culture is a balanced flavored latte. I find that most lattes are either too sweet or too milky. As a true espresso lover, either is my worst nightmare. To top it off, the owner is an absolute gem. Q personally delivered our drinks and asked if they were made to our preferences. Couldn't imagine a better experience. read more

In search of good espresso near our hotel, we spotted Cassel Earth on yelp and decided to give it a *shot* What a hidden gem! Located in the atrium of an office building with ample modern seating and great vibes. The owner of the shop was so kind, even at 8am in the morning having had just opened. He even came to find us outside to let us know of free validated parking, and gave us each an extra shot of espresso, on the house! The iced oat milk latte was perfection, and the espresso was rich and creamy just as it should be. Next time I'll definitely be trying the matcha! read more

I had high expectations because of the reviews, but I also didn't because of the location, it's a small counter inside a business complex.. But oh my god was this coffee incredible. Everything about this coffee screamed quality, smooth, not overly sweet, perfectly balanced, confident service. It was amazing. The ambience is nothing special but it really didn't matter when the coffee is so good.

Not just the entire vibe of the building was very modern and cozy but the buying the drinks at Cassel Earth Coffee made the stay even better!

Side Note: I'm a bit sad and it's unfortunate but I used to come here after 3 PM only to be booted out by 4 PM. I can't remember since I visited a couple months again but I'm sure they play jazz (?) read more
