They have a nice selection of pastries. The first day we went I ordered the Yuzu tea lemonade. This was absolutely refreshing. They top it off with a mint leaf, which is authentically pleasing. The next day I ordered the Mocha Tesoro, chefs kiss. So decadent and rich. I love the menu here. I wide range of coffee and tea. Wish we had one in AZ.

(The staff was sweeping and cleaning) The THIRD time, I finally got in! I always get the Philz Iced tea, without mint. But 50% of the time, I still get the mint. And no exception on this visit. It was an easy fix so no problem. The guy who took my order was super friendly and thorough with getting the order. The location is very spacious,and has a parking garage attached. The store is bright and upbeat. There are board games and reading materials. A minor issue with cleanliness - I sat on the single armchair by the big window facing the street. There were pastry crumbs all over the seat and on the floor. The table wasn't clean either.

My short rib thing was doused in maybe a pound of sour cream, potatoes weren't warm and they were firm, short rib was not warm or tender. Avoid. Also, the avocado toast the next day. Radishes? Asparagus? Arugula? And a cold poached egg? Just give me the basics. The prices are not astronomical but the food is not enjoyable, at all. People are nice and food comes quick.

The matcha was mostly milk with very little matcha flavor. The boxed lunch came with a small charcuterie selection, but the crackers were placed underneath the items, making them all soggy. The sandwich was a burrata sandwich, but there was barely any burrata cheese on it, which was disappointing. I initially gave them some grace because they had just opened, but I went back again hoping it was just opening-day issues and unfortunately had the same experience. I even reached out directly to share my feedback and never received a response. I really wanted to support them, but for the price and overall experience, I was left disappointed.

What a hidden gem! My friend told me about this cute coffee shop in Ladera Ranch, and I had to…read morecheck it out! It's in a really cute shopping center and there's plenty of parking, and they're seating outside and inside. You'll want to sit inside because there's so many cute details.! The service is super friendly and helpful. I love that they have gluten-free options. So on their regular menu anything that has a bread components like a bagel they can replace with a gluten-free bread. They also had a few gluten-free pastry items. They had a mixed berry muffin, and a zucchini banana bread. That made me so happy. So I tried their fall menu because I know it's just seasonal and fall is one of my favorite seasons and flavors. So I got the pumpkin spiced cream cheese toast that's taught with apple filling and nutmeg. It was so delicious and I wanted more! It's pretty filling you could definitely share it with somebody but I ate the whole thing! And then I just got an Earl Grey drink since I know that my food was gonna be super sweet. The place was super clean, they also sell some really cute and cool merchandise. Just a fabulous little coffee shop and I can't wait to come back!

I have been trying to write more reviews about business that I really love and cherish lately and…read moreOslo Coffee is definitely one of them. I have to drive quite a bit every time because I live in La Habra, but the food and matcha is worth it. I also love their cardamom buns. As far as I know, they don't bake those in house but glad they have them available. I feel like drinking their matcha is such a treat because it's just the perfect taste. And their salmon smorgasbord is my favorite breakfast. Those jammy eggs are to die for.

It's a casual vibe with a forestry mural sketched on the wall. We sat on a wooden communal table with bench seating. If you're dining alone, it's not awkward to find a seat. Share the table on a first-come basis. No reservations are needed. The plaza has boutiques, restaurants, and a dog grooming business. Sip and enjoy your beverage indoors or while you window shop in this quaint shopping center. Sincerely, Rosemary

There is a reason , The ambience The service The food The decorations- dishes , tea cups , orange juice glasses all match their decor makes you feel like you took a trip to France ( down to their tooth picks in the sandwiches ) We ordered the little basket of mini warm baked goods -they were tiny and delicious $4.99 for four . You could buy a dozen . We split the Chicken Breast Les Champs sandwich on their baguettes which was absolutely DELICIOUS!! We both had a plate each with out one dill pickle spear I tell you it was the best flavored not too thick and not too thin chicken breast - it must have had 3 pieces total with tomato and we had mini chopped red onion on the side but on the sandwich would have been amazing . I would have taken my other half home if I ordered a whole to myself . I can still taste that sweet flavor and we both cannot wait to go back . Service was excellent so thank you to everyone as we were very happy and we told them that and wrote it on our receipt . If you haven't tried this adorable little place yet , btw they do allow dogs on the patio as they have dog water bowls there as well if dogs are behaved and kept on the ground as they should be and not on the chairs or tables ( I have seen this before ). There are lots of tables inside , but to eat outside even during the hot temps they keep it cool was awesome!!

Stopped by here on the way to San Diego for a quick and simple lunch…read more Unfortunately, the coffee wasn't as good as I expected based on the advertising, and the tuna sandwich was a bit disappointing as well. I added peanut butter to the acai bowl for an extra $2, and that was probably the best part of the meal. There don't seem to be many good coffee options in this area, so I can see why this place does well. For me, though, it was just okay and probably not somewhere I would go out of my way to visit again.

There's two ways to look at the situation…read more 1. Be pissed at myself and embarrassed that I lived less than a mile from this place for 3 1/2 years and had no clue it was there and how good / cool the place and owner (Tim) is. Or 2. Just be super grateful that I finally learned about it and have gone there twice in the last four days. There are options all over the place to get coffee and a bite to eat, but there aren't places like this with culinary elevation in the flavors of the food and next level ingredients and taste in the coffee creations. The vibe is right as the music has been rad. Order ahead if you're in a crazy hurry. Otherwise well, order be a little patient because incredible things are never instantaneous.. This is where I'm spending my money for coffee and culinary delight. The pictures aren't great, but the food and drink sure is!

They have Hawaiian-inspired food along with breakfast sandwiches and other options. The atmosphere is what really sets it apart. Tim plays vinyl records, there's Bob Ross and Snoopy memorabilia around the shop, and there's a mix of couches and dining tables. It's eclectic, comfortable, and very homey--not your typical coffee shop. While I was waiting for my coffee, Tim actually said to me, "Make yourself at home." And that really sums up the whole place. Great coffee, great food, great music, and a place where you actually want to hang out for a while. Definitely worth a visit.
