The strange thing was the ham & cheese was given sort of raw/uncooked with option to microwave yourself. She did mention toasting as an option. I tried microwave for 50 sec as suggested but the dough was still raw. After a few bites had to go back and request it to be toasted and it turned out much better. Suggestion to owner: Ham&cheese shouldnt be served raw this way from fridge and should be cooked already. And if not, microwave should not be suggested. Rather straight to toaster before giving to customer.

Stopped into Sur Coffee while having a day in San Clemente and needed a caffeine pick-me-up…read more Sur Coffee is on the main road and close to a lot of other restaurants and the beach -- it was about a 10 minute walk. This unassuming coffee spot has a lot of great seating options, the service was super quick and the staff were friendly. I got an iced vanilla latte with oat milk which was smooth and creamy, the espresso wasn't bitter and the vanilla wasn't overpowering, exactly what you expect for a latte. It was a bit expensive, about $9 for an iced latte -- but the syrup and alternative milks were $1 each. Just something to consider. Overall it was great though and I'll be back when I'm in the area!

Probably wouldn't come back again, onward to search for next blueberry fritter.

I was a little disappointed I couldn't get a hot latte (since it was a chilly day), but I got an iced chai latte and it was really good, pretty sweet but a nice treat. I also got a BLT on toasted sourdough. My only feedback was the bread was way too buttery...I'd prefer it on the dryer side. The fries are delicious, but I was missing the extra seasoning! Overall Rose's has been a favorite cafe for many years now and glad to see not much has changed!

The people who work here are just amazing, they are super friendly and helpful! Parking is never an issue, but there could be a line depending on the time of day.

We stopped by on a Friday morning to grab a few donuts, and the experience was great from the start. The workers were fun, energetic, and super helpful. Nice clean and modern shop with a wall of donuts We couldn't decide what to order, but another customer told us we *had* to try the apple fritter and wow, they were right. That apple fritter was SO good, fresh, warm, perfectly soft, and not overly sweet. Honestly, perfection. We grabbed a few other donuts too, and while most were great, one tasted like it may have been sitting out a bit longer and wasn't nearly as good. So my advice: go early and get them fresh because that's when these donuts really shine. If you're in the area and craving fresh donuts, definitely check them out!

First time here, wanted to try a local business. I asked for a bacon and egg bagel with no cheese,…read morelow and behold there is cheese on it. No big deal though, this happens all the time so I just went inside and told them. Instead of admitting their mistake, the lady said that I didn't ask for no cheese and she remembered everything.

Moral of the story: don't come here, the service is terrible and they microwave their bacon. Will never be back.

Niguel Bakery & Donuts isn't just a place we eat -- it's where our kids grew up…read more Let me get the obvious out of the way first: yes, the donuts are legit. Our go-to favorites are the chocolate cronut (dangerous), the glazed old fashioned, and their cake donuts -- the kind that remind you why donuts were invented in the first place. But here's what most people don't realize... The deli is a hidden gem. My wife's favorite is their American Mexi-Cal style breakfast burrito -- and for good reason. Huge, insanely good value, big crispy buttery potatoes, soft chewy tortillas, and a portion size that laughs at inflation. I recently had their Boar's Head deli-sliced ham and cheese on sourdough with lettuce, tomatoes, and pickles, and I genuinely don't have the vocabulary to describe how soft and perfect that sandwich was. It's not "good for a donut shop." It's just really good. But honestly? The food is only part of why this place matters to us. Our kids practically grew up here. Dave and Dani have known our family since before our kids were even born. They've seen both of our children grow -- literally from in the womb, to infants, to toddlers, and now our kids are 2 and 7 years old. We'll be posting photos through the years because... yeah, this place is part of our family history. That's not something you can fake. This is one of those rare neighborhood spots where you sit for hours in the morning, coffee in hand, talking with locals, laughing, and catching up. It's where the community actually feels like a community. The owners, Dave and Dani, are some of the kindest, most genuine people you'll ever meet. Dave is basically a big kid himself (especially when it comes to cars) and somehow always finds ways to surprise my kids with random little toys -- the kind of moments kids remember forever. I grew up in a small town in Virginia, out of my own mom's deli and convenience store -- where locals gathered over coffee, the Washington Post (and yes... cigarettes back then ). Living on the West Coast without family nearby, Niguel Bakery & Donuts gives me that same feeling of home. This is a place where kids can still feel safe like the old days -- riding bikes with friends, scraping together change for a snack... and if they're a little short and have been on their best behavior, Dave and Dani might just take care of them anyway. That kind of generosity can't be taught -- it's who they are. It's an East Coast bodega-style bakery/deli, right here in Laguna Niguel, and they don't just talk about community -- they show it through the countless non-profit events, food donations, and local causes they support. If you're looking for more than just donuts -- if you want great food, real people, and a place that feels like home -- this is it. We'll be here tomorrow morning. And the next day. And probably for years to come.

The vibes were nice, very coastal aesthetic with a decent amount of seating. Pretty diverse menu, prices were that of an indie coffee shop. Cashier was so kind and patient even though I was so indecisive, so I definitely appreciate that! What I ordered: -Lavender Honey Matcha: I got this with oat milk and it tasted like water with sweet lavender flavoring, couldn't really taste the matcha. 2/5 My cousins and I weren't very impressed by the drinks here. We all got matcha so I'm thinking maybe their coffee is better because the place was busy. I probs wouldn't come back, and if I did I'd give the coffee a chance.
