    OMG why is no one talking about the Nitro-coffee on tap? It is a must try especially with the summer looking at us. Stellar service ive had the burritos too. Taken many many bags of used up coffee grounds up used for my gardening compos. For free they post the free brown bags of 10 lbs coffee grounds again for gardening. Regardless great brew house. With front easy parking. No steps easy for our elders access or those in wheelchairs.

    Issues with WiFi - use ATT, not pilgrimscoffeeGuest
    Breana D.

    Not the best experience. For context: I came to grab a coffee since I had a busy work day ahead of me. I started to browse the menu, not sure what I wanted since it was my first time there. Couldn't decide yet so I sat down and tried to connect my laptop to the WiFi but it took me longer than expected because the WiFi in big letters was invalid. The network wouldn't pop up and I had a work meeting in less than 30 minutes (I restarted my laptop, downloaded the newest update, tried to enter the network manually etc. etc.) nothing was working then I took another look and saw there was a small sticker on top that says ATT. I finally got connected with that network with 5 minutes to spare for my meeting so I got myself situated and hopped on the call. During the meeting, the owner came up to me and said "if you're going to hang out here you need to buy something" it was honestly really off setting because he interrupted me mid conversation so I pointed to my headphones to let him know I was on a call. Afterwards, I walked over and let him know I was planning on grabbing a drink after my meeting and he told me I should have paid for something before hand.......I told him no worries, i'll leave I won't be spending my money here after all and packed up my things and left. But honestly if it weren't for the whole WiFi situation I would have been able to order my drink prior but that interaction happened and I didn't feel the need to explain myself but the fact that he was rude about it I would rather not support this business, there's way better coffee shops in the area.

    Coffee Thursday ..

    Pilgrim's Coffee House Fullerton, CA We checked out Pilgrim's Coffee in Fullerton! Overall, we had a pleasant experience and enjoyed the traditional coffee local coffee house atmosphere. Iced Butterscotch with oatmilk   We were curious to try this drink and were pleased by how subtle and smooth it was. It had a nice mellow sweetness, and the coffee flavor wasn't too bitter. The drink seemed a little lighter, requiring more coffee. We recommend adding an extra shot next time for more of that espresso kick. The Iced Pistachio with oatmilk This drink was enjoyable. This drink had a full and rich flavor at the beginning, with a good balance between nuttiness and coffee. Definitely felt like a more developed drink. The barista was super kind, helpful, and informative,  adding a wonderful personality to the whole experience. We enjoyed talking to her and felt so welcomed. We also love that the shop is dog-friendly. Plgrim's also has a good variety of drinks and food to choose from. We're definitely open to coming back and trying more. They've got a solid menu with plenty of options!

    chocolate chip cookies and vanilla latte
    Timmy S.

    I visited this quiet coffee shop late on a weekday afternoon. The vibe is chill and peacefull. The interior has quite a number of tables and art by Fullerton College students was scattered on the walls. I ordered a regular sized vanilla latte and a pack of two homemade chocolate chip cookies. They use Golden State Coffee here which is high quality. My latte lacked any vanilla flavor but the coffee itself was excellent. The cookies, wrapped in plastic wrap, tasted fresh and had plenty of chips to satisfy a chocolate sweet tooth. The friendly, kind fellow working here seemed to know most of the customers who were coming in, chatting while taking their orders. Definitely a great place to come if you want a relaxing place to sit and space out while enjoying your coffee.

    Cute little coffee shop. Small selection of coffees and lots of seating. Glad there was lots of outlets for my electronics.

    Had to kill some time while the bookstore across this cafe was processing trade-in so I decided to stop by this cafe and get some coffee. As soon as I entered the cafe, all the artworks on the wall immediately captured my eyes. I was excited to see that they were all my Fullerton College colleagues' awesome collections that after I ordered my coffee from a friendly barista, I sat down and soak everything in. There were group of people studying/working with their laptop, catching up with friends and families and enjoying the warm sunny day with their favorite beverages. It was a very peaceful and comfortable place to hang out. I ordered iced Americano, hot chocolate and cinnamon roll, which wasn't great but there wasn't anything special about them. They also sold fruits and vegetable cold pressed juices so I'm interested in trying one of the juices next time.

    I loved visiting pilgrims! They had sugar free vanilla and their matcha was amazing. They also sugar free treats here which I appreciate! The space is great for getting some remote work done or studying. Highly recommend visiting.

    Great local coffee shop to have in Fullerton. Came here on an early Sunday morning and loved the cozy vibe of the shop. Service here is super friendly. They were really helpful when I asked for tea recommendations. Got the blueberry hibiscus tea and a bagel. Both were pretty standard. They do also sell pressed juice here and a variety of other drinks.

    Iced Matcha Latte

    While this coffee place is tucked away in DTF, don't underestimate it! My co-worker and I had been wanting to try out this place for a while and finally decided to visit on a rainy Monday. I was shocked at how busy it was inside (but then remembered it was a holiday and there's nothing like enjoying some coffee and doing work on a rainy day). My co-worker loves kombucha and was excited to see his favorite brand was on-tap. He got that and then I got an iced matcha latte w/ almond milk (my go-to at any coffee place). The prices here are some of the best in DTF. I think we had the owner as the person helping us out and he was very kind! I enjoyed my drink. Just from the vibes alone, I could tell this was a hidden gem. There's a bunch of seating inside and it just feels very cozy. Tons of cool/local art adorn the walls. I feel like if they had a stronger social media presence, they would be the talk of the DTF coffee scene (but that's just my marketing persona talking haha). Can definitely see myself coming back here with friends (or even just myself when I want to study).

    Books are available!

    Stopped in for a latte the other day. I was surprised to find this cute little cafe in DTF. There are many cafes around Fullerton but I have to say this is my favorite so far. They were playing relaxing music that's perfect for studying! The woman who took my order was in a great mood and she was so kind! I will definitely be back with my computer to study! The cafe was clean and welcoming as well

    Black bean and cheese breakfast burrito
    Jana H.

    Really love this downtown coffee shop. Their coffee is consistently good and the owner, Jeff, is super nice and friendly. Both their espresso (in an Americano) and drip coffee have good flavor and never seem too strong, weak, or watered down. They serve Golden State's coffee, which is another big plus. Tried their black bean and cheese breakfast burrito and it was just right for the price ($6.25). They also serve other breakfast burritos, breakfast sandwiches, and some pastries. Would highly recommend for a great spot for a meeting or to work.

The sticky rice one was just normal matcha with pieces of sticky rice in it which I don't think I'd get again. They had a ton of other flavors I want to come back to try! Also got the egg sandwich and ube mochi brownie, both of which were so good! Bread was buttery and the egg salad was so flavorful. Ube mochi was flavorful and I liked the texture. I expected a chocolate brownie with ube but it's more like a nian gao (Chinese rice cake) texture and no brownie/chocolate in it. Forgot to take a photo of it but it was really good!

However, upon drinking it, it tasted like the foam that was on top of the drink had been sitting out for too long. It didn't quite tasted spoiled yet, but also didn't taste "right"/fresh; something was really off about it. A bit disappointing honestly, in comparison to my previous visits in past years. It feels like the quality has dropped and/or I just visited on an off day. It was also incredibly loud in here, the music was way too loud and it wasn't a full house. People couldn't hear their orders being called and it lead to a weird clump of people just lingering around wondering where their drinks were. And unless you're seated/have a table, you're kind of stuck awkwardly hovering around the cafe to wait for your order. There isn't really a space to wait at. There's a ton of tables packed inside a small space, which is nice, but also makes for a weird atmosphere for customers who are waiting for their drinks for take out/can't get a table. There is not much to comment on service as you order yourself on kiosks then just pick up your drink. Not sure if I'd return; maybe for another drink if I'm in the area but I think I personally have other spots I prefer a bit more for the taste/quality.
