    BEST BARISTAS EVER!!! That barista named Elly is the absolute prettiest ever. Brussel is such a kind person and Adrian made me cackle laughing. The drinks were out of this world. The manager is such a baddie. 10/10 recommend for my friends and family. EVERYONE COME HERE!!!!! NOT GRIME AND WATER ITS PRESS AND MOKAAAAAAA Please everyone go here and request Elly and Brussel and Adrian‼‼‼

    Love this place!!! It's in a very quiet location between businesses, but they did so much with the area that it's very calm and relaxing. The drinks are amazing!!!!! & the crepes are SO good. The baristas were very friendly and took their time and love to make our drinks and food. Outside is really neat! You can sit in the shade/sun in one of the lounge areas, or play mini golf! There's even a bean bag toss game. Looks like there's more to be added soon.. saw a fountain being worked on. Overall, really nice and calm. Very sweet environment. I would go again!

    This is a great coffee shop in Irvine near the Hampton Inn and John Wayne Airport in Orange County. Lots of great seating inside and out. Excellent vibe and relaxing music. People bring their dogs which completed the Socal coffee feeling. Now, the coffee. The T2 espresso machine puts out a great espresso and quickly. I'm calling it the Coffee Terminator. I opted for this over my usual black drip or pour over (sadly no pour over). I ordered the grilled croissant with egg, cheese and bacon. It was so tasty I forgot to take a photo, sorry for that! This is a place worthy of stopping by. A lot of loving care went into everything at Press & Moka. Tables, music, tables and cups. I liked the cups so much I bought one! Open on Sunday, too.

    This was my favorite find in Irvine this week! I was staying at the Hilton and everyone suggested this place for "real coffee" and that's the case- I returned a few times (it's a very short walk from the Hilton) and tried a few of their specialty and seasonal drinks- everything was great They also have very friendly and efficient service and IG-worthy seating outside - Cannot remember the woman's name that was so awesome but she's a Snoopy fangirl like me so thanks, chica!

    It's a charming place. I went there on a Saturday morning and there was plenty of paid parking, which they validate for two hours. I liked their French-style interior and additional seats outside. I ordered the strawberry crepes and the mocha with oat milk. The food was ok, but the mocha wad too watered down. I can only assume they didn't shake the oat milk carton first, as that can result in a very watery drink. Service: 5 | Ambiance: 5 | Parking: 3 | Drinks: 2 Food: 4

    2/27/26 Overrated. But, is it worth it? It took them quite a bit of time to acknowledge me with a very uncomfortable silence. I took off a star just for that. There was just that one customer ahead of me who happened to ask questions that took the staff 's attention for a while. There was nobody else in line besides myself. The barista just stared at me until he realized "oh yes, let me say Hi" I'm big on service it wasn't boding well. The aesthetics was impressive though, I will give them that. The space is small indoors, a good ) sets of tables/chairs to accommodate about a dozen patrons. The pastry shelf boasted a few enticing morsels, limited but interesting selection. When the staff finally was freed from the customer who asked some long questions, she was attentive. I ordered what looked enticing, the S'mores Biscoff. In hindsight, I should've gone with my usual to compare to other coffee shops (hot oat milk latte). I'm thoroughly enamor with the spacious accommodations of their outdoor area. It was a very hot day in February but it was cool outside. There was plenty of tables & chairs, natural greenery & even a waterfall. One could really spend a good afternoon savoring a good cup here. The beverage was so tiny (see photos). For over $9, it sure was stunning (for its stature & content). It was more of dessert than a drink but it was delicious, if you prefer your beverage on the sweeter side. It is lovely though. Would I order it again? Perhaps not I will stick to my oat milk latte. The view: 5/5, drink: 3/5, service: 3.5/5 Will I return to give em a fair shake? Why the heck not? The view is worth it if in the area lol

    Super cute space! The location is perfect and the amount of outdoor seating is amazing! You could sit by the water feature you or could sit out in the sun. There's so many options. The Wi-Fi works excellently. They have a ton of sandwich and crêpe options. The coffee is great! No complaints. The staff was nice and really helpful when it came to finalizing my order. The indoor space is pretty small, so just keep that in mind. I don't recall seeing a restroom.

    Grilled Chicken sandwich
    Calli Y.

    I've been here a couple times before today. We decided to come today for Newport restaurant week menu. It's a pretty good deal for a drink, sandwich from their list, and two beignets. They do validate parking when you park in their garage for two hours. They have a wide variety of seating outside, only when the weather is nice. Otherwise, there's only a few tables on the inside. I enjoyed that they have several housemaid syrups. You can have your pic of coffee. So I really do enjoy their drinks. As for the sandwich, I ordered the grilled chicken sandwich on ricotta bread. It was actually more bread than fillings. The chicken I thought was lacking. But it did have good flavors. My friend's avocado toast looked good, but very small for the price. The beignets were basically two donut holes, so I wouldn't get that again. Overall, I would come back for their coffee drinks. SYOY!

    Parking does not seem to be free since there's a security arm that's present once you get a ticket at the entrance of the parking lot. I stopped by this cafe after dropping my rental car off at green motion thats 10-15 min walk away from this location. I got a matcha latte, nonfat milk, and added lavender syrup to it. Service was quick and there's plenty of food and drink options available. Lots of indoor and outdoor seating at the cafe. In addition to that, there's more seating nearby outside the cafe as well. Bathroom is across the cafe inside the building. Would definitely love to visit again if I'm ever in the area because I enjoy the environment.

    Amazing! Great coffee! great crêpes! They validate parking, so make sure to bring in your ticket! Indoor seating is limited, but outdoor seating is available. Staff is helpful and patient.

    This café has such a cozy European vibe and feels like the perfect place to relax, catch up with friends, or get some work done. The atmosphere was warm, clean, and super inviting with beautiful indoor and outdoor seating. We tried both the sweet and savory crepes, and they were SO delicious! The crepes were soft, fresh, and full of flavor. Perfect balance between sweet treats and savory brunch vibes. We also ordered the matcha latte and lavender latte, and both drinks were amazing. The matcha latte was smooth and creamy, while the lavender latte had such a light floral flavor that felt super relaxing and unique. The staff were very friendly and welcoming throughout our visit, and one thing I really appreciated was the FREE 2-hour parking, which made everything so much easier and stress-free. The outdoor seating area was peaceful and aesthetic, making it such a cute place for coffee dates, brunch, or even getting work done on your laptop. Definitely a hidden gem in OC! Can't wait to come back again and try more drinks and pastries!

    Stopped by Press and Moka recently and was honestly so impressed. The space feels warm and inviting without being overly trendy. It is comfortable and calm which makes it perfect if you want to relax or get some work done. The coffee was smooth and flavorful without being too sweet. You can tell they care about quality and consistency. Everything came out beautifully presented and tasted just as good as it looked. Service was friendly and welcoming which made the whole experience even better. If you are in Orange County and looking for a solid coffee spot with great vibes, this is definitely worth checking out. I will be back.

    Nova Lox bagel
    Connie B.

    This was a cute hidden gem coffee spot tucked in a corporate plaza near John Wayne Airport. I was already in the area for a medical appointment, and I was craving somewhere I could have lunch, matcha, and work on my laptop. Press & Moka was perfect for all 3. Parking was plentiful inside a structure, and validation was available for 2 hours. The place has a beautiful outdoor area with seating and string lights that I imagine look super pretty at night! The coffee shop itself is small and cute, and at the time I went it was decorated for Valentine's Day. I ordered the nova lox on an everything bagel and a matcha latte. The lox bagel was delicious and came with a yummy dill cream cheese. The matcha latte was a great afternoon pick-me-up. Service was quick and easy. I'm always looking for dog friendly spots around OC, and next time I'm in the area with my dog I will definitely think of this place's big outdoor area!
