HHC Coffee was a wonderful stop and a great way to start our day! I enjoyed the Strawberry Matcha,…read morewhich was refreshing, smooth, and perfectly balanced with just the right amount of sweetness. My husband ordered the Brown Sugar Maple Latte and absolutely loved the rich, warm flavors. We also shared the Ham and Cheese Pesto Croissant, and it was delicious--light, buttery, flaky, and filled with great flavor. Everything tasted fresh and thoughtfully prepared. One of our favorite parts was the outdoor seating area. We loved dining outside and enjoying the beautiful weather while sipping our drinks and relaxing. It created the perfect atmosphere to slow down and enjoy the experience. The atmosphere was welcoming, the drinks were excellent, and the food was just as impressive. We'll definitely be back to try more of the menu. Highly recommend stopping by if you're looking for quality coffee, delicious pastries, and a great outdoor dining experience!

The drinks were decent, but the service felt pretty indifferent throughout our visit. When we…read moreordered, the interaction felt very transactional, with little friendliness or engagement from the staff. When one of our drinks came noticeably sour and I asked if it could be remade, they did replace it without issue, but the interaction felt more like an obligation than an effort to ensure we had a good experience. I don't expect over-the-top enthusiasm, but a little warmth and hospitality can go a long way in making customers feel welcome. Unfortunately, that was something we felt was missing during our visit.

Have been coming here for a while but I guess I never noticed oats as a topping before? I love…read moreoatmeal and the grainy-ness taste it gives the drink. It is one of my favorite drink toppings now second only to tea jelly from A Little Tea Genmaicha is one of my favorite teas so to have that as a latte with oat milk plus the oats was amazing. Their drinks are very tea forward which I love. I got 25% sweet which was plenty for me because I think the oats were sweetened too. Winter melon latte was standard

For BAKO TEA HOUSE, I have to say that in am actually so utterly devastated and disappointed at how yelp and reviews lied to me saying that this place is 4.5 stars. The service was fine. The interior looks really nice. The phoenix oolong tea latte and the roasted oolong tea latte are disgusting. Tell me why I was feeling bad when I saw the drinks come out in under a minute. In what world can you have a diluted, old, no flavor, fake tea with the most mangled boba (it was not cooked properly) and charge me $7 without batting an eye? Horrible quality tea, horrible price, horrible boba, 0 stars if I could. Nah, save yourself your $7-$10 dollars and go get yourself some Omomo, some sunright, some OTHER drink

Every now and then you stumble on a hidden gem that you become obsessed with. Sandwich society is…read morejust such a gem. We came upon Sandwich Society based upon its Yelp reviews. We tried the pork belly and the cubano sandwiches. They were excellent in every way. The cubano was true to spec. Tender ham, mustard pickles on a beautiful roll. Simply delicious. The Pork Belly was spectacular. The pork was tender and flavorful and the cucumbers, cilantro, onions and jalapeños made it a flavor delight. All on a delicious roll. Just writing this makes me want another one! However, there's one thing you do not want to miss. Their newest addition is Salt Bread. These are sold 4 to a package and and are like the yummiest croissant you've ever tasted. I was sitting waiting for my order to be completed when the owner cam out with a bit of one on a fork. I was hooked. They're already baked, but the instructions are to put them in an air fryer (we used a small convection toaster oven) for 2-4 minutes at 350. I also like them split and toasted. They're fantastic! You'll want to put The Sandwich Society on your restaurant list! (And you'll want Salt Bread in your pantry too!).

A great place to stop by to try new sandwiches! We stopped…read moreby around 11:30am on a Saturday and the restaurant quickly filled all of its seats within the next 15-20 minutes. You can order and pay for your sandwiches on the kiosk. The worker was kind enough to give us a sample of their cheese bread. We ordered the Hot Pastrami Melt and the Bulgogi Cheesesteak sandwiches. The toasted buns on the pastrami melt gave a great texture and helped it from getting soggy. In contrast, the bulgogi sandwich was very wet and the bread felt more like a sponge at the end of my meal. The flavors were great but the sandwich itself was messy to eat. The service is great and they even gave us a cookie for each sandwich for free! It's a great place for a casual lunch. I'd definitely come back to try the other sandwiches.

It's iced coffee as dessert. An einspanner is a traditional hot Viennese coffee topped with whipped cream. This is the Orange County/Vietnamese/Japanese version. You can also get iced matcha drinks with cream tops as well. There's also a small variety of pastries: chocolate scone; rosemary ham and cheese croissant, co ammon rolls. Vibe is industrial kawai with a dash of etsy grandma. Concrete floors. Mid pop but at least it's not too loud. Popular with Asian American teen girls and their awkward boyfriends, college boys with panda backpacks and the occasional auntie. Service was friendly! I'll be back the next time I'm in the OC.
