There's wifi and a few spots to charge your laptop. The thing that stood out to me was the staff. They were extremely nice. We ordered the orange cold foam cold brew and the cappuccino. The orange foam was super delicious, would definitely come back just for it. The cappuccino was okay, the milk could've had more foam on top. Overall though, definitely a spot to visit.

The staff were very friendly and the coffee shop is so cute with bistro tables and booths to sit at. I ordered an iced vanilla latte that was delicious and got my son a milk that he gulped down. The best part was the kids area in the back, complete with a play kitchen, books, and a kids table and chairs. My son absolutely loved playing with all of the toys and I was able to visit with my friend while he played. The next time I'm in San Clemente, we will definitely be back for the delicious coffee and friendly atmosphere'

My total was over $10, which felt pretty steep, especially since the drink was a few ounces smaller than what I typically get elsewhere. There are several nearby coffee shops that offer matcha of similar quality for less, so it left me feeling like I didn't quite get the value I expected. That said, the matcha was genuinely delicious--so at least they got that part right!

I love going early in the morning with my pups, grabbing a coffee or an iced matcha, and just hanging out for a bit. The coffee is always good, and the matcha is one of my favorites. I know they also serve wine and beer, which sounds perfect for an afternoon or evening visit. I haven't made it there for the late-night vibe yet, but it's definitely on my list!

Good spot. The Almond milk was very creamy…read more Just very expensive for a small size portion which was the only option. Latte was good just didn't have a lot of coffee flavor felt a bit more milk forward than I expected. In regard to the matcha the flavor was a bit untraditional with more vanilla and chalky notes coming through rather than umami. Busy spot with lots of parking. Seems like a local favorite.

Peet's Coffee is a chain coffee shop and this one is located in the Talega shopping center around…read morethe corner from the Ralph's. Peet's offers standard walk-in coffee shop fare with pastries, quickie sandwiches, teas, and coffee. You can buy in bulk or you can order individual cups and servings at the counter. The coffee has a strong flavor and the syrups lean towards very thick and sweet. So be careful how you order what you might from your standard coffee shop. I tend to order lighter on the syrup and heavier on the milk product. They do offer a variety of milks and for me my go to are almond and oat milk, which they have every time I go in. Standard walk-in coffee shop chain prices so anticipate $4-7 for a drink. Not my favorite, but still coffee I've ordered on multiple occasions.

I haven't been here in years. So here's my thoughts after going back today. The workers were…read morefriendly though I didn't interact with them much. They have a kiosk for placing orders now which I like, but you can still order with a cashier. It's nice to have a place that serves boba drinks in San Clemente, close to home. And the prices are extremely reasonable compared to what you see when you go more north toward Irvine, Lake Forest and Mission Viejo. I liked my strawberry frappe but it was almost too sweet even at 50% sweetness... maybe they forgot to make it less sweet? I still enjoyed it though. It had a strawberry frozen yogurt taste which was delicious. The inside look has not changed much since I last went, it's a chill surf-like vibe you'd expect in San Clemente. Only thing is that they don't have the fish cones anymore! Wish they'd bring them back.

The young woman told me to be careful because she just mopped. Looked over the menu, and decided on the Mexican latte. Jonesy just wanted a regular latte.

One of the best things about this location is the parking! They have a small lot in front. They also have a drive-thru window. This is really a great place to come to! They also offer pup cups!
