    Mocha

    Modern yet artistic coffee shop with seating outlets and WIFI. MOCHA is delicious even with almond milk it was thick and frothy with moderate sweetness. Service was patient with all our questions and great with cleaning up the area.

    The coffee was.. disappointing. I didn't even finish the coffee, it was bitter and had a very light weight to it. I'm use to coffee being thicker consistency when milk is added but that lacked here unfortunately. The shop itself is pretty clean, has a very modern look. side note: if you like matcha they also have that option but i did not try it.. let me know how it is!

    My second time here and I actually spent some time studying here too! I got the expresso, iced coffee, and donut. The staff was so kind to me and helped me bring my items to the table as I had full hands. I think it's the perfect cafe to study at , while Laguna is beautiful! There are big windows to sit inside or outdoors!

    What a charming location in Laguna beach! The interior is clean and aesthetic, but somehow cozy and inviting at the same time. There was nice outdoor seating as well. The staff were really friendly and professional and made the experience great! They have a great variety of unique flavors, and I loved how nothing we tried was overly sweet. Presentation is beautiful, and the pastry we tried was delicious as well. Definitely a great sport before heading to the beach!

    chocolate croissant and strawberry matcha

    Absolutely loved this place! The strawberry matcha was probably the best I've ever had. The strawberry milk is made in-house and you can really taste the difference. The chocolate croissant was also INSANE, and the beautiful views made the whole experience even better. The staff was so friendly, and I loved the clean, modern, minimalist aesthetic. I cant wait to come back and try out some of the other drinks!

    Really great coffee flavors and such an amazing ambiance. Love the concrete feel to the entire shop and service was fantastic. Not much seating indoors but they have a nice semi-private outdoor patio. We ordered the volcano latte + 1 shot of espresso and the strawberry matcha latte. The volcano was good and I recommend adding the extra shot. However the strawberry matcha was not my fave. Light matcha flavor and tasted like strawberry milk. We also tried the pistachio rhubarb danish which was a nice sweet treat, just a bit overpriced

    Laguna Beach, Ca. It's all about the coffee here, however there are a few pastries, croissants, etc. to go with your coffee. We are latte fans and so far have only tried that beverage here. They had great flavor, but for a latte. I would like a minimum of 12 ounces. The latte Art is exceptional, not often seen with such fine linage. I liked the drink better in the ceramic cup rather that the paper cup, it retained the heat much better. I really want to try whatever is brewed with the machine with the handle pull, so I'll be back for that. The staff is pretty friendly and they definitely take care of business. Wait times are not too long.

    Strawberry Matcha

    I got an iced latte and croissant, and my friend got a strawberry matcha. I loved both the latte and croissant, but the matcha fell short. They use strawberry "discs" that include freeze-dried strawberries and other things, but it doesn't really bring the strawberry flavor. I think using fresh strawberries would make the drink so much better. The baristas are so kind and the space itself is great for studying/working. Parking can be found anywhere on the street, and there may be a lot near the coffee shop. I would definitely come back for a latte!

    vanilla latte and strawberry matcha
    Celine K.

    the matcha quality was good but the strawberry matcha tasted very strawberry forward and very milky. we ordered the vanilla latte with extra ice which made it less milky. there's a good amount of seats inside/outside. parking is difficult especially on weekends

    Lavender iced latte
    Rachel S.

    As a long time Laguna local, we were missing something "LA chic" for coffee. I can attest that PLAY has the coffee and pastries of your dreams. I have the cardamon bun and lavender latte and it's fabulous!

    this might be my new favorite coffee shop! I love the aesthetic and that they have indoor and outdoor seating. the strawberry matcha is so unique because they use these dried strawberry chips from france and melt them down with milk and brown sugar for that delicious flavor. the staff are SUPER friendly and they also have pastries!

    Croissant and pastries

    Love this place for their iced coffee, drinks and their pastries. Their coffee roast is rich and delightful. You can really taste the fresh ingredients of the coffee and the pastries are phenomenal. The croissant. It's probably one of the softest. I've had my go to spot for coffee.

    Super cute cafe that's perfect for studying, they have outlets everywhere. I love that the space feels so open and welcoming. We tried their most popular latte and matcha: Volcano Latte & Strawberry Matcha. The drinks surprised us, it was very light and had good aromas to it. The staff are super friendly and prepared the drinks so quick. There's paid street parking or a lot nearby. ig: @cravingswithcat

    Stopped by Jedidiah Coffee with my husband and we tried a couple of their drinks. He got the…read moreespresso tonic, which was really nice and refreshing--especially for summer. The espresso with the bubbly tonic made it feel light and crisp. I got the iced saffron latte and absolutely loved it. The saffron gives it this warm, slightly floral flavor without being overpowering, and I really liked it over ice. It was smooth, refreshing, and just different enough from your usual iced latte. I'd definitely get it again.

    I feel like I could just copy and paste this for most coffee shop reviews now - "Fine, but…read moreexpensive..." I have to be honest, I was not impressed with this latte, and I am wondering why everybody raves about it. I got a vanilla latte and added vanilla cold foam as a little treat and somehow it still had a little to no flavor? I think it was $18 or $19 for 2 drinks, that's just crazy to me and it's my own fault, that should have been a warning, but they had a Ube cruffin (and my husband loves ube) and I ordered one without asking the price and imagine my surprise when it was $7! A little more than that I think actually. I get it - it's a pricey area, they're a block from oven views, it's Laguna, I'm too broke to live and exist there but good Lord. All of that aside, it is a very cute shop, very cute merch, and very good vibes with lots of sitting areas. They even had a cute little corner with toys for kids to play with, which I love!

    Laguna Beach, CA…read more I've wanted to try this single origin coffee roaster for quite some time and we finally stopped in For a late afternoon pick me up and boy did it pick us up! We met Ahmed who usually doesn't work at this location who was an absolute gem. Ahmed is so knowledgeable about coffee sourcing and the information he shared was in such a delightful way. He welcomed us and let us know all about the coffee and showed us the most beautiful hospitality, we went with his recommendations and he did not steer us wrong. They are getting in an Ethiopian variety in a few days which sounds like it's going to be really good. I love the minimalist sharp clean Vibe and the coffee and service was fantastic. We tried a cortado and a cold brew their cold brew is a true 24-hour slow drip. I wish I had taken a picture of the unique looking contraption they use to make their cold Brew. We will be back and we are excited to visit their new Costa Mesa, CA location. They also have a location in Marin County, N California.

Strong espresso flavor mixed with a satisfying banana flavor. Flavorful, but not too sugary which I liked. A great pick me up for the day. I also tried my friend's Guava Basil Matcha Latte and it was solid as well. Not the best matcha I've had, but the guava and basil flavors were unique. These drinks were around $6 with regular whole milk which was a good price! The interior is clean and nice. I saw one outlet, but I'm unsure if they have wifi. For parking, there's spots in the nearby Pavilions parking lot or around it. Overall, a solid spot for coffee drinks in the area.

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.

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.
