I came on an early Saturday morning, getting a large banana latte ($6.75), a tasty, slightly sweet latte with a hint of bananas foster flavor. While the banana wasn't that striking the entire drink was well constructed, delicious, and reasonably priced for an upscale coffee shop in a very pricey area. Service was friendly, the location clean, and there is a small amount of seating. If in the area, skip Starbucks and stop at Equator. You will be pleased.

First of all, I love the Equator cold brew brands I get in glass bottle form, bought at Sprouts or…read moreWhole Foods already. I did not know they had a permanent residency here in Laguna Beach. Ya best believe, when I saw this for my search for coffee spots, every other option went out the window. It is in the busy street of PCH AND Broadway. It's a tourist's magnetic pull, due to all the cool little shops around. Also, the weekend I came is a three day weekend so I knew there would be tons of people coming in. Anywho, Equator faces the ocean. The establishment is small but there are a couple tables in side to sit; not meant for a huge group mind you. Also, there is some seating outside the establishment. Upon coming in, the smell of coffee and just food gave my tummy a rumble and I was excited to try the items. It is clean and very organized. I didn't catch my cashiers name but she is so sweet and she was the one who washing it down until other coworkers came to help. It's not overly packed but soon as I came in, I was first in line and 3 more people came behind me. It's a local's morning spot for sure. As for the items I had ordered: I ordered their Cold brew (comes only in 16 oz.) with half n half and vanilla. I sprinkled some common on top (I'm in a cinnamon phase rn). And ordered the Boichik Everythign bagel with cream cheese; cream cheese is extra btw for $1.75. I didn't mind paying extra for that because the bagel is NY inspired and it was super filling. Everything in total cost me approximately $13.something (I tipped the worker.) Seriously, I will be coming back knowing this place closes at 3pm daily and opens at 7:30am. Of course when I'm visiting the beaches here in Laguna. This place has won my heart over.

This was the closest place we found that offered Vietnamese coffee in the area, so we decided to…read moregive it a try. Upon entering, it definitely felt like we got the Gen Z stare. The store clerks weren't rude, but they also didn't seem particularly welcoming. My husband and I both ordered the Vietnamese iced coffee, expecting it to be freshly brewed and made to order. Instead, we were surprised to see it poured straight from a milk jug, already premade. The coffee itself was overly sweet and honestly tasted like prepackaged Lee's Coffee. Overall, it was a pretty disappointing experience.

Second, whatever they do to grind and brew them makes them even better. Third, the food is local and homemade and fresh.

Truly a one-a-kind place.

There was also a nice view of the ocean from the windows, which added to the experience. The only downside is that it's a bit pricey in my opinion. I paid around $30 for my meal, but I still think it was worth it because you can definitely taste the quality of the ingredients. I would come back again, though next time I might try some of the less expensive menu items.
