What a fun little coffee stop! By entering through Fairview Street, one lane is for app-placed orders; the other, one can park among the limited spaces to place one's order at the walk-up window. The staff member assisting us that afternoon was appreciatively helpful, patient and professional. This location is convenient to taking one's beverages, to enjoy at the beach!

Always a delicious time at Moon goat. This small walk up and drive up coffee and pastry shop is one of my favorites in Laguna. Service is always super friendly and nice and very helpful. I was gonna try something off the holiday menu since it was still present however I went with my old standby the iced churro latte. Well balanced, sweet, delicious. I've never had any pastries or other drink drinks here, but I should probably try something else. Sort of parking but not really. Just a cool vibe with some coffee beans and retail items available as well.

Stopped by here for some coffee after a hike, and it was cute! I don't think it's anything special, but it is good. I got an iced Hulk, which is a matcha latte with cascara and koatja milk. It's just a pretty standard matcha latte, not bad, not great. I wouldn't necessarily recommend this place, but it is one of the only matcha places I could find in the Laguna Beach area. It also has a drive thru so it is very convenient.

The matcha blueberry lavender with oat milk was delicious. The flavors were unique but really well balanced -- the blueberry and lavender added a subtle sweetness that paired perfectly with the matcha. I'd definitely order it again.

The drive through was kinda tricky! I don't remember if there's even inside seating. Service was great! The ladies there were sweet. The matcha wasn't my favorite. Tasted a little watered down. Their coffee might be better!

Great little coffee spot in Laguna Beach! We had good service & our lattes were good. They have these cool little seating areas up front & they are working on a covered shaded structure in back. We'll definitely be back when in Laguna

Friendly service, small menu. Matcha latte was good. I had it slightly sweetened with vanilla. Seems to be only one size drinks which is on the smaller side. A little pricey for the size you get but it was within walking distance from Crescent Bay.

So convenient that MoonGoat has a drive thru / walk up location right on PCH! I'm a huge fan of their churro latte so I love that I can grab it before a morning walk along the beach or drive in to pick up my mobile order before making my way up coast hwy. Service is always super quick and friendly and they even have some merch available. Love their banana bread and pastries

They used to serve awesome lattes! Not anymore....

If you have this place "bookmarked" please do yourself a favor and "UN-bookmark it".......... Now, if you have time to know why, you can continue reading this review. The main Moongoat location in Costa Mesa is awesome and serves delicious coffees. So when I saw that they have a drive-thru in Laguna, I was sooo excited to give it a try! Upon turning into the place, right off the bat, I saw that they have a line for "mobile" pick up that is basically goes against the regular traffic. Considering that this place is super small, the mobile lane makes it soooo hard to maneuver especially if you are driving a 4 wheel drive! I just don't understand, the whole point of the drive-thru is getting your drinks in-n-out, so not sure why there is a seperate "mobile" lane?!!!! Besides the headache of getting to the ordering window,, my iced vanilla latte was sooo watery and bland that it was just awful... I always order my drinks half sweet, but this honestly just tasted like milk mixed with ice, there was no coffee flavor whatsoever. This place was truly a diappointment. I totally can see it not surviving, unless they make some huge changes to their ordering setup and the quality of their drinks!!!!

I can see why this place is popular, though I can't say I'll be back in a hurry. The most important part of a coffee shop is the coffee, obviously. And this coffee is fine. It's not bad, which can't be said for some other cafes in Laguna, but it's not above average either in my opinion. Their ice is nice! The location is a little.. interesting. It's pretty isolated from other places you'd casually find yourself, basically low foot traffic. But that's not something that can be held against the business. You get what you can with Laguna so for what it is, I think it works well. It was cute! Just a little out of the way. Lastly, the staff were quick and friendly enough. Seemed a little overstaffed when I was there, but from what I've heard I'm sure this place can get fairly busy. No big complaints honestly. It's cute so I can see why it's popular and the coffee is better than Starbucks, but that's the bare minimum to me. If for some reason you find yourself in the area, I recommend stopping, but I don't think it's something you need to go out of your way to experience.

Very cute little coffee shop on PCH, it's basically just a little drive-thru! The service was friendly and quick, especially considering there was only one person working it! The drinks weren't bad, but weren't anything special, the coffee and chai itself tasted good, but the drinks definitely relied on lots of syrup or sugar for the flavor. Not at all a bad spot, but I'd probably try another shop next time I'm in the area.

Banana matcha with vanilla sea salt cold foam

The Banana Matcha was amazing, at just under $9. I swapped the banana cold foam for sea salt cold foam and loved it even more (though the banana foam is still good too). The iced Café Brü, however, was a big disappointment. It was extremely bitter, and no sweetener option was offered when ordered. When I asked if it could be made less bitter, the barista first gave me raw cane sugar packets (which don't dissolve in iced coffee). After I explained that, she went inside and came back with a small cup of brown sugar syrup instead of actually fixing or remaking the drink. Even with the syrup, the coffee stayed unbearably bitter, and we ended up throwing it away. This was around 7:30am 9/1/25. It was not busy at all. Overall: the Banana Matcha was amazing, but the Café Brü was far too bitter, and the service wasn't very accommodating in resolving the issue.

Cute little drive thru in Laguna Beach on PCH. I've had the Irvine location in my bookmarks for a few months. I was pleasantly surprised when I came across this location driving down PCH. I tried their Cold Brew with Cold Foam, yummy. My husband had an Iced Churro Latte. Another great coffee place to add to my rotation.

I had a lovely experience here! The setup at this location is a grab and go counter or drive thru. They do have tables along the street and one near the corner, which still made it a great place to sit and enjoy our drinks. Everything was very clean! Service was very friendly and welcoming! We got a churro latte and a plain vanilla latte and both were very good. Definitely worth a stop if you're passing by and need an afternoon pick me up. read more

Horrible. We drove through on 6-14 for an iced flat white and an iced matcha. Both tasted sour. Bad milk? Pre-maid products? Either way, we threw both away. Should have returned them, but we were already in Newport Beach. What a waste. read more

Awesome service every time! This place has been such a staple. They always have something cool and new in the works - I loved their yuzu slush and adding matcha for summer, but their fizzy Americano (Italian style) and sparkling matcha spritzer are equally unforgettable and my personal staples. Being able to drive through with friends, family, and pets is so fun! No matter how busy they get, they always make sure the customers are greeted with smiles- impressive! read more

I've already been a fan of MoonGoat from other locations that I've visited throughout Orange County but this one is probably my all time favorite so far. I love this drive thru that they set up especially for customers whose therapy consists of driving along the PCH blasting your favorite songs, sipping on much needed caffeine, and getting a pause from the daily rhythm of life. Thanks Mika so much for your kindness and all around just great positive vibes to start off my morning. read more

Flat out the coffee is bitter, just black straight coffee, which I enjoy. If you do a blended latte, obviously it's not so bad because there's added milk, etc. but just for a great cup of straight coffee, maybe even with a hit of half-and-half is just bitter and un enjoyable read more

I've been to the MoonGoat in Costa Mesa a few times & I had high hopes for this location in Laguna. It's a drive thru which is so convenient when heading to the beach. But it's kind of an odd way to get in & out of this location. The drive thru area is so so tiny & the exit is awkward. There are a few spots to park & that's about it. The three times I've been here, I was helped by a very bored & unenthusiastic guy who looked like he wanted to be anywhere else but there. Not a good morning/hello how are you? So odd. They have a limited drink/ pastry menu which I was surprised but understand as it is a tiny tiny location & you would think the drinks would taste that much better but each time I ordered I was underwhelmed. There are a lot of spots nearby that have better quality coffee, I just wish they could be as good as their location in CM. I ordered the blueberry lemon loaf for my daughter & she liked it. Every time I ordered the iced churro latte it tasted a bit different but nothing special. read more

Good service & coffee. We live nearby and stopped by on Sunday just before 1pm. We parked and walked up to order. The girls working were very kind and helpful. They offer walk up, drive thru, and order ahead! I'm a little confused about the coffee sizes because I got a tiny cup for my $6.25 chagaccino, which was the picture next to the Jabroni so that was a little disappointing. Inquire about the sizes, but otherwise a great spot in North Laguna to check out! read more

So happy to have gone the extra mile to get to MoonGoat in Laguna Beach! We passed the usual big guys & had our first cup of the day during our vacation here! They were so welcoming & had the patience of a GOAT while we made our decision. My husband said he had the best cappuccino ever which is impressive considering we are HUGE coffee aficionados! I had a Pumpkin Spice Koatji Latte and no sugar added. Which I was a bit iffy about since I like a little sweetener in my cup. I was glad I didn't because I would have missed out on the natural delicious taste of this coffee! The milk is made from rice & oats so digestively it was nice to my stomach that was in shambles from east coast to west coast travels in less than 24 hours. My daughter had their Ubi Cold Foam Iced Latte which was quite a treat! I also ordered their banana bread which seems to be low in sugar but great taste! Didn't do my homework there... but it was a nice compliment to my order. Great drive thru experience! Check them out if in the area! read more

I'm so glad I stopped here, I've been meaning to ever since they've opened. The people working were awesome and gave us great recommendations. I can see this place getting tricky to get in and out of when PCH is a little busy but if you're from around here that's understandable. Their pumpkin spice latte was amazing and we were in and out in a few minutes! read more

Such a cute little coffee stand by the beach with good drinks. It was a little bit of a walk if you're coming from the beach but it's not too bad. We ended up getting the Churro Latte and Masala Chai Latte. They were both very sweet and not too strong. The drinks also came out pretty fast. Thanks to the staff for helping us decide what to get and giving great recommendations. read more

I am so excited to see there is now another location for Moongoat Coffee! This location is in North Laguna, a little away from downtown, which has its benefits to be a little away from the crowds. The one downside though is that it is only drive-through so there is no place to sit down and hang out, unlike the Costa Mesa location, and the spot is located awkwardly in the corner where the entrance off PCH is for drive through and the entrance off the cross street is for mobile orders only. But that being said....mobile orders offering? Take advantage: since it is drive through and there is limited street parking, you might as well order ahead of time and pick up your coffee to bring elsewhere. There's tons of cool little spots along the coast to sit and enjoy your coffee with a beautiful view. The coffee is delicious, i have had both the plain regular coffee as well as the lattes: last time I got the churro and it was such a treat: it takes like Fall! I think this is worth a visit if you're in the area! read more

Meanwhile waiting , got myself familiar with the place and caught the vibe by the window. This is something expected especially by the beach. I got my drink and nice enough to allow me to help myself to sprinkle some cinnamon on my drink. Super cool. Make me feel like I added my own twist to the drink. Who doesn't like to feel engaged. The drink was good. Drink was smooth especially with the coconut and it paired well not to over powering not to sweet. It' was a good choice.

The shop has a very homey, family-friendly feel and the decor/aesthetic was really cute. The staff looked busy and overwhelmed but they did well. The location is also a huge plus since it's right across from the beach. Unfortunately, the matcha was a miss for me since it lacked flavor. I had read similar reviews before but still wanted to give it a try myself. I'd still be open to trying their coffee next time, though it seems more suited for people who enjoy lighter coffee or matcha flavors. If you prefer rich and bold flavors, this spot might not hit the mark for you. Hopefully they'll look into using a higher quality matcha in the future because the shop itself has a lot of potential and such a nice vibe.

After spending time at Aliso Beach Park, my mom and I walked about half a mile to Rapport Coffee…read moreRoasters so we could grab drinks and bring them back to the beach to enjoy by the water. Totally worth the walk. The shop is simple and minimalistic inside, with a clean layout and a plant right in the center that gives the space a calm, relaxed vibe. Nothing flashy, just thoughtfully designed and comfortable. I ordered the iced Spanish latte and my mom got the iced chai. Both had an excellent balance of sweetness and coffee or tea flavor. Smooth, refreshing, and perfect for sipping while sitting on the sand. The workers were friendly and easy to order from, which made the experience even better. One thing that stood out to us was their logo, two hands shaped like coming together. In sign language, that sign means "connect," so as Deaf individuals, we immediately noticed it and wondered about the meaning behind it. It made the name "Rapport" feel even more intentional. Great drinks, welcoming service, and a perfect stop before heading back to the beach. We'd definitely do that walk again.

Interior is minimalist and clean. Baristas were all very nice. The cold brew coffee was one of the best I've had -- smooth, but robust, with a complex taste. AND it was under $5, which is a steal! I read that they roast coffees on site and I wouldn't doubt it! Unfortunately, while bean coffee was $23 for 200g, which is 7oz! My local roaster (Kean) would have the same price for 12oz. In their defense, they did have a massive bag that was $25. They had a bunch of great latte options, an espresso tonic, and tea options. They have pastries that looked delicious too. A great coffee and highly worth a visit!

Still tasty but a bummer as I love arugula! Today I decided to place an order right when they opened for pickup, so it wouldn't be busy (less chance of error), plus I wouldn't have to wait at all. I ordered a basic sando with no meat. Picked up my order around 10:30 am, no wait, easy peasy. Opened it at noon to eat it for lunch, and shame on me for not checking it before I left! It was bread with mayo, a dot of mustard, and a tiny bit of cheese. No shredded lettuce, no tomato, no onion. Basically a mayo sandwich. This time I called to complain as I really don't want to eat bread with mayo. I had to drive back down the hill to get the new one...a 10 minute drive, and then circling for 5 to find parking since lunch hour is so busy and what I was trying to avoid! This time I unwrapped it before I left to make sure I got what I ordered. (Would have been nice to throw in a bag of chips or a cookie for free given the inconvenience.) The little bar/biergarten out back is cute. And surely where you'll wait if you go at peak times and don't order ahead. I'd order for pickup again in the future, but no way would I leave without checking it.
