    I'm in love with this spot! All of their ingredients are so high quality! Their matcha was incredible, the staff is very kind and I love how they offer both indoor and outdoor seating! Check out my instagram @morganxmatcha for the full review!!

    Peanut Butter Smoothie, chai latte
    Josh H.

    I ordered the peanut butter smoothie, chai latte with vanilla, blueberry muffin, international grilled cheese, and an avocado toast. The Peanut Butter smoothie was very good, it had a good consistency and flavor was great. If you don't like overly powered peanut butter then this would be perfect, but myself I wish there was an option on the menu for an extra scoop of peanut butter. I'm sure they'll do it if you ask, the staff was very friendly! The chai latte was great as well, I customized mine with multiple things so it will most likely taste different than most but im sure regardless it will be good. The international grilled cheese was very good, I personally don't like a ton of bread, and the bread on this was light, crunchy, and tasty. I would definitely recommend to order this. The Avocado toast was okay, there was a good amount of avocado which was the best part about it. I wish they put lemon pepper seasoning on it for more flavor. Also the bread is pretty basic, I wish it was more toasted. Overall it's not bad, but does not stand out compared to other cafes. The blueberry muffin was good, pretty comparable to most cafes, I would recommend to order if you're craving it, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it. The ambiance is nice and clean, good music, plenty of seating for studying. The staff was very accommodating and friendly. I would definitely recommend to stop by here for your next study session.

    Cute cafe with good food and drinks! I got the croissant with ham and added spinach and it was a delicious breakfast. My boyfriend also really enjoys their cold brew.

    ceremonial matcha latte
    Jenny C.

    I ordered the ceremonial matcha latte on the kiosk and it took quite a while to come out. There were few people studying here so it's definitely more of a study spot than socializing spot. The matcha latte tasted more milky and I couldn't really taste the matcha. Maybe I'd try their other drinks next time. Ambiance was very quiet and spacious.

    This is such a cute coffee shop! It feels very comfortable and every one there was super friendly. I got the golden milk tea. It's prepaid so I could adjust the sugar levels. In general, I don't like sugary drinks so this was too sweet for me but I did think the tea itself tasted really good. I also got a chocolate scone. They warmed it up for me and it was delicious. It was the perfect ratio of chocolate chips to scone. This is a great place to stop by and grab a cup to go or sit and work for a bit. They had plugs and wifi and you could easily find a nice area to sit in to work.

    Brilliant coffee. They will answer any questions you have. Patio seating. Good for to go orders. Comfortable.

    breakfast burrito
    Tricia N.

    Came here before going to the office for a little pick-me-up on a rainy day. It's a cute and cozy cafe in Fullerton with a variety of coffees, teas, and sandwiches in their menu. Ordered a breakfast burrito and Kyoto Cold Brew with oat milk. Kyoto cold brew (I chose the Intentional Blend I believe) was pretty decent, it's very smooth and goes well with the oat milk, no sweetener needed imo. As for the burrito, I really wanted to modify it with no onions and peppers but the mix of the burrito is premade apparently. I decided not to be a big baby and ordered it and it was really delicious and tasty especially with the salsa. It was definitely the pick-me-up I needed this morning. As for the service, the man in the front (may be the owner but I am not sure) was very friendly and made sure that all orders of customers were taken care of and came out timely. I was in and out within about 8-10 mins which isn't bad for someone who ordered a big breakfast burrito haha. Will definitely be back here to try other things from their menu!

    Absolutely loved my visit. I ordered the Masala chai tea and it was incredibly flavorful.. the perfect balance of spice + sweetness, easily one of the better chai teas I've had in the area. Thoughtful little details that stood out, were the matcha tea whisks displayed on the shelf, a small touch, but it added a lot to the overall aesthetic and made it feel like they really care about quality and presentation. Service was fast and friendly. Definitely a great spot for a quick pick me up!! Will be coming back!

    Outside seating
    Jeremy L.

    It's a specialty coffee shop with the intention of serving exceptional coffee, tea, pastries, brunch, and desserts. They aim to be intentional with more than just coffee, but also with their service, conversation, and community. The staff is friendly and they do love conversations. Very fast with service, and they definitely get a sporadic burst of customers. Plenty of seating here, but what I love is that the conversations are louder, (but not too loud) than the music, it really shows the community here. I ordered the Madagascar Vanilla Latte, the Madagascar Vanilla syrup is made in house, no artificial flavors here. The coffee is so smooth, and flavorful, I loved it and also the foam artwork! I love this place, I would definitely come back.

    Played jenga in the coffee shop
    Breana M.

    Super cute and quaint spot for meetups or casual dates. It's perfect for small groups, also. The Thai tea was a banger & my bf ordered the matcha which was also tasty! The barista was sweet and answered all our questions prior to ordering. They don't have a grand menu but the drinks we ordered were on point. We'll be back!

    honey cream cold brew
    Alex V.

    Nice coffee shop, I'm glad I stopped by before getting on the freeway. They have a nice variety of speciality drinks and nice variety of food as well. Service was quick and friendly with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. I got the honey cream cold brew, which was good but a little too sweet for me, but definitely would try their other specialty lattes and cold brews. I also got their turkey pesto panini, which was really good and filling. They close late which is also a great plus!

    Passed by this cafe numerous times and finally came here after lunch at the sushi place next door. The plan was to get drinks and sit a few hours to get some work done. We decided to get a matcha latte and their golden milk tea. With the yelp check in the cost was about $10. The drinks came out quickly because it was being made as we ordered. There are a couple of tables inside and they have a patio outside with more seating. One restroom for the public to use. In addition to their drinks they have a variety of baked goods and kokonut pudding. I recall the pudding used to be $10 at other places but at this location it is now $11.50. Not sure if the price for the item increased at all places or the cost is higher because of the city? Either way, $10 was pricey for the pudding (although it was good), so I wouldn't buy it at 11.50$ each. As for the drinks, I only tried mine which was the milk tea. Although I've had similar milk tea elsewhere, the flavor and sweetness was good. All they needed was some sweet honey boba and this could be a homerun. 4.4 for the milk tea. Overall experience was a 4.3 I would say. I liked what I tried but it is not a cafe I would return to over and over in the future.

    No Hello, no warm greeting Dude just went behind the counter and stared at me ... I ordered and cheerfully said I had never been inside and it was cute. Dude said NOTHING to me. Best part? They couldn't accept my debit card without a chip ?? And homeboy couldn't have cared less that I didn't have another card to use Terrible service and atmosphere, never coming back Also smells like piss inside building. Gross.

Unfortunately, that turned into over an hour--with no updates from staff during that time. What made it worse was that we only found out after we had already paid that the kitchen was backed up. That's something customers deserve to know upfront so they can decide whether they're willing to wait. We were also there with a baby who needed to go down for a nap, which made the long, unexpected delay even more difficult. On top of that, they had already run out of matcha and the menu was extremely limited, which was disappointing considering that's one of the main draws of a place like this. Overall, poor communication and lack of transparency really ruined the experience. I understand delays happen, but being upfront and managing expectations would have made a huge difference. Extremely disappointed. We went to this place a long time ago when they first opened and remembered them having a more extensive menu and it being far better. Sad to see that this place has gone downhill. My family and I will definitely not be coming back again.
