For context, I am somehow a Mocca expert and very rarely I have found a place that makes good Moccas. No, it is not about mixing chocolate with coffee and milk. It is a craft! If the Coffee shop is good, they have good Moccas, good expressos, good coffee crafts. To conclude the Mocca was phenomenal. Well done 4/5 Service was great and nice ambiance.

It was nothing close to the taste of a Matcha Einspanner (it's not supposed to be one), but just sharing additional details. Honestly, it kind of tasted like an overly sweet artificial matcha, as the drink was way sweeter than I expected. It didn't have a strong matcha taste at all. Customer service was just okay - I wouldn't say it was extremely positive or memorable. The girl helping me didn't smile or look too happy. This place definitely isn't on my top favorites, but I would consider going back to try a different drink option.

Pumpkin Pie Matcha 5/5 - the pumpkin sauce pairs well with the matcha once mixed. Matcha has a great color and taste. I would have added a cream top but forgot. Banana Coffee 3.5/5 - I have had banana coffee in the past at other places but I'm not sure how to feel about this one. I did feel it was bitter and has a weird after taste. My husband liked it and also pointed towards it nuttiest taste with the toffee. Since it's his drink here is his rating - 4.5/5 I think it comes down to your love for bananas lol

Wait: There's usually a line every time I go, especially on weekends, which shows how popular this place is. Parking: Street parking is available and it's pretty convenient.

Highly recommend the pumpkin spiced matcha! it is delicious, made with real pumpkin puree & not too sweet!

Lots of different areas even though it was the same room and a nice selection of toys around and even some manga for the human guests. The included drink was nice but nothing too special. I appreciated that they had a big menu to choose from though. I also forgot my socks but they sold really cute cat socks for $7

I also tried the breakfast croissant and a few other goodies, and everything was delicious. I even brought home a bag of their espresso coffee grounds, and the aroma alone smells like heaven. This place is an absolute must-try. Five stars just doesn't seem like enough. I'll definitely be back for another honey vanilla latte!

First, for those newer to OC, a little history lesson about Kean…read more Kean was founded by coffee pioneer Martin Diedrich and his wife Karen. Martin Diedrich is the original founder of Diedrich Coffee, which was sold to Starbucks in 2006, and opening the Tustin location marked a return to the exact site of his very first full-scale Diedrich Coffee coffeehouse. So when you come to Kean, you are coming to a special place that is tied to the history of coffee in The O.C. Needless to say the coffee is roasted in-house and is excellent. I always buy an oatmilk latte here, and the coffee taste is deep and aromatic. Definitely one of the best in Orange County for the pure quality of its coffee. For Orange County, the location has a nice community vibe. Eclectic mix of tables, but there aren't always enough of them, so it always seems packed. Staff are always extremely nice. Appreciating the history, great coffee, and community feel is one thing, but you should know in advance that they do not offer wifi here. That is my only complaint and the only reason this gets a 5 and not a 4 star. I suppose if they want to maintain a certain vibe they don't want people working there, but I would be happy even with a one-hour time limit on wifi usage.

I love coming here, it's a family shop and the ladies in the morning are seriously nice. A different type of nice, she even recognized me from a month ago and I only came in like twice!! I bought a dozen donuts, a ham and cheese, a couple of drinks and the employee in the morning was awesome. There was a long line and people ordered complicated sandwiches and she was handling all of our orders very well. A customer even went up to her because the croissant wasn't the right one, and she was nice to simply throw out the one they ate into and give them a new one. They take credit cards here too, they do charge 75 cents extra but its alright cause it's worth buying the dozen donuts, it's cheaper through a small shop like this. I will continue to come back, thanks read more

This place is a joke. I bought three donuts from this place in the morning, and all three of them had specs of fungi. I noticed it while I was halfway done with the first one. I could not believe what I saw and tossed all of them away. I called the owner to let her know about the condition of the donuts she is selling. She said they are fresh and it's not possible. Then she kept on saying, "bring me the donuts so I can see." I told her very nicely that I just wanted to let her know of what happened, but she kept on saying bring her the donuts as if I was lying to her. So I told her, "I will post it on yelp so you can see it for yourself." read more

They accept credit cards for an additional 75 cents for your transaction. I would recommend the ham and cheese croissants, regular and jalapeño. They have great cheap drip coffee, a variety of cold drinks and are across the crunch fitness gym. Donut holes are 5 for $1 and they open pretty late. They close at 8pm on weekdays and 430 on a Sunday. A dozen of donuts is about $15 but doesn't include the bigger goods like Apple fritters. Apple fritters are huge here, would recommend! Very friendly and sweet service here from the owner too! read more
