    Tea & Matcha Menu
    Nance R.

    Communitea is a really charming spot with a cozy, community-focused vibe. The shop is super cute and features items from independent vendors, which is a nice touch and fun to browse while you wait. I ordered The Headliner along with the green chili bacon egg burrito, and both were delicious the burrito especially was a standout. They also have a great selection of games and books to hang out with (even spotted the full Harry Potter set ), which makes it an easy place to linger. The staff were genuinely friendly and helpful, which really adds to the overall experience. Great place to grab coffee, relax, and enjoy the atmosphere. Definitely worth a visit.

    Iced chai- just milk with sugar

    Honestly was super excited to try this spot, it looked legit. The ambience is really nice and very hip. The staff were super friendly. I ordered the chai latte iced and Vietnamese cold brew. Super bummed with the drinks. The chai was literally just milk and cinnamon. Really disappointing.

    I stopped here a few times during a recent work trip and enjoyed the coffee each day. They've got a few homemade syrups that are pretty unique - burnt sage is one that I tried. There are plenty of chairs to set up if you wanna work remote and it's a bright space. There's even some kids toys along the back wall for children to play with. I also liked the little plant stand set up by the front door. Overall, just a really homey place with friendly people working.

    Such a nice place with a place for kids to play a little while you get your matcha or coffee fix. Came here before getting my hair done and saw that they had monthly specials. I tried the banana bread matcha which was different because on top of the cold foam they also added cinnamon. I also liked that they could make cold foam with oat milk instead of a dairy whole milk

    Talk about a hole in the wall! I was in the area for work and needed my caffeine fix, so when I found this place saw the reviews, I knew this was my stop. Once I walked in I was greeted by the friendly staff, got asked if I needed help or recommendations. All the good stuff. And most importantly the coffee tastes great! Doing a little walk around inside seems like a great place to come hang out and laugh for all ages!

    Creative, delicious flavors are on rotation at Communitea Coffee. Pistachio flavors are back! Actually, they never left. CC baristas are great about making your favorite drink even if it's not on the seasonal menu. The Pistachio Rose Cold Foam is a must try! The iced matcha in their house-made oat milk is smooth and refreshing.

    Such a cute little coffee and tea shop! Located in a small shopping strip next to several different shops. The moment you walk in, you'll notice a fairly large sitting area, which is great for individuals who want to just study or sit in a relatively quiet area. Additionally, out front, at least on the day I came in, people were doing a sip and paint with coffee/tea, which was really cool. The baristas were really nice and welcoming. They have a very large menu and you can tell that it was done intentionally so that all the flavors can hit all sorts of folks while being as traditional as possible. I got the honey lavendar latte with oatmilk on ice. Delicious! Definitely coming back here as soon as I can.

    Iced Spanish Latte (20oz)

    I've been coming here for a while, but finally decided to write a review for this place. I have tried a lot of their drinks and the standouts for me are: Spanish latte, blackberry honey shaken espresso, chill pill blue lavender latte (no caffeine), and blueberry matcha. Also, their tonics are super refreshing. I loved the passion fruit one they had. Kind of sad they don't have the Rose Cardamom Tea Latte anymore as it used to be one of my go-tos. They seriously have a drink for everyone, whether you're a coffee lover or tea lover. The baristas are always super nice and accommodating. I also love that they are a local business who supports small businesses. The ambiance is pretty chill, and it's such a great place to study or work. It can get a bit loud at times, but it's nothing out of ordinary for a cafe. The cafe is always clean.

    Nice and big shop

    We were headed to the Brea mall and saw the coffee sign so we decided to stop by. It's tucked in the corner of a shopping center. You first walk in and you see the cute little shop, with a cute little play area for kids and plenty of seating. The gentleman behind the counter was so nice , we told him it was our first time so we through the menu with us and explained everything for us. I went with the headliner since it's a Vietnamese coffee with some vanilla cream and I also ordered a green chile burrito. My daughter ordered a blueberry matcha and a green chile burrito. I absolutely loved my iced coffee it was so delicious. The right amount of coffee and sweetness. My daughter liked her too, she had finished it before we even left the place. The burrito was good, I just wish the bacon was a bit more crispy but other than that it hit the spot. I am so happy we found this cute coffee place. It will be our go to when we are in Brea.

    This is genuinely my favorite local coffee shop. The people here are so friendly and awesome, and they host such cool events. And their food and drinks are delicious, and super creative. The inside ambiance is perfect, and bright and happy. I frequent the game store in the same shopping center, so I always look forward to coming here!!

    Just dropped by real for a pour over. Got the Guatemala klatch beans for the pour over. It was a little light for my taste. The water was poured over too quickly and in too large of batches. Overall, decent cup of coffee

    Kids corner
    Erica A.

    Used to come to the cafe located here 6+ years ago since I worked in the shopping center, first time coming back but into the new business communities and I'm so happy they turned it into a coffee shop. Stepped in to get some work done while in the area and enjoyed an iced latte plus a bagel. The latte wasn't my favorite until t watered down + mixed in the cold foam, then it was a bit sweeter but I look forward to returning and trying more options. The shop inside is cute plus has a corner for your kids to play in.

    I came in craving a solid ceremonial grade matcha, but unfortunately, this one didn't hit the mark. The color was dull and the taste was milky and slightly chalky--definitely not what I'd expect from true ceremonial quality. For reference, places like Aroma Coffee or Tasty's serve vibrant, flavorful matcha that truly feels premium. At $8, I expected more. I tried to give it a chance since it was so expensive but it's pretty undrinkable. If you're coming in for some matcha, I'd recommend skipping it here. That said, the coffee is really good here, the service is friendly, and it's a nice study spot--just don't come for the matcha, despite them saying it's "ceremonial grade."

I particularly really love the Phil'z location, because it is so easy to get to being on the outside of the mall as well as having a small play area on the outside for the little ones to enjoy or to sit down and enjoy your Philz Coffee. My personal go to is always gonna be the mint Mojito or the iced rosé, but that does not dim the light on their seasonal menu. I just had the chance to check out the butterscotch cold brew, and if you're a beer fan, this is the coffee version of it. The butterscotch flavors were very rich and deep that appeared so great with their coffee. I also have just become the biggest fan of their breakfast burritos.

What a clever way to light up the cafe! The outside of the shop opens up to an astro-turf lawn with seating and an area where kids could play, so that's nice.

I decided to forgo on my usual Mint Mojito and try the caramel coconut cold brew and I'm so glad I did. It was so good - perfectly sweet but I could still taste coffee. The baristas were super friendly and helpful, and didn't make me feel rushed at all even when I was standing in line forever trying to download their new app. Luckily I was the only one in line at the time!

It was a Saturday evening about an hour before they closed. When I walked in there was a couple in front of me and it appeared they had issues ordering from the kiosk. The one worker who was there that night came out with the most unfriendly face and vibe. Even though she wasn't serving me yet she even made me feel uncomfortable and that's hard to do. Lmao. After we all ordered our drinks, we could not help but talk about how grumpy she looked. I gave the benefit of the doubt knowing it sucks to work alone on a Saturday or maybe she's tired but the strangers i was talking with said everytime they come here she's always unfriendly. The one star reviews on here confirm that. I kid you not I was looking for the manager to share this concern with because it was that bad. There was no one else in sight. I didn't feel like confronting anyone that night, but if they read their yelp reviews please consider providing customer service training to your employees. With so many boba shops opened now in brea including the 3-4 spots in brea mall alone, good drinks and good service will keep your business alive. 2 stars for my pineapple Green tea. It was decent but the ice level sucked. Very little ice was given and the ice they used melted super fast.
