    This is my favorite coffee find of 2025. I love it that they go all out and decorate for all the holidays and I had to visit to see their Christmas decorations. They did not disappoint. In addition, the last week of the year, they bring back all the favorite drinks and pastries for one week only. How fun is that year in rewind! I also tried the ham and cheese croissant and it is massive. Definitely enough for two meals. Please come and create your own adventure.

    If you're a lover of holiday themed treats, it's a must to come here during Halloween time. It's a small unassuming coffee shop with a few bar seats inside. For spooky season they fill the space with decorations and delicious themed treats. Their display of cookies is impressive and they make them big. We had to grab a Double Chocolate Oreo ($4.95) and a Spider Cookie ($4.99). The double chocolate oreo is exactly what you would expect and perfect for an Oreo lover. The spider cookie is a peanut butter cookie with a Reese's spider on top and it was a good also. I had to get a Pumpkin Delight ($4.99) pastry and it was not only cute but tasted good. It has a pumpkin cream cheese filling and I think I also tasted apple pieces. The pastry shell itself was buttery and flaky. I would get this again. It was hard to choose which seasonal drink to try but I went with the Frankenmatcha ($7/16oz.). It's a toffee and vanilla flavored matcha with ube cold foam. The drink is cute and the server was nice enough to replace the eyes in it when they sank. Unfortunately the matcha flavor was lost in all the sweetness. Everything is freshly made here and whether you want pastries or sandwiches, you're bound to find something you like. Make sure to give this spot a try especially during Halloween.

    Churro bagel with cream cheese

    I think the only thing that I don't like about Rekindle is that it isn't closer to my work. But it's my go-to when I have a little extra time in the mornings. There are a few parking spots right in front of Rekindle and a few more spots in the back of those are full. As I walked up this morning, there was a lady out front in a Zoom meeting and another group of ladies gathering for coffee and company. I absolutely love both of those. So there is outdoor seating as well as a few seats inside. Rekindle is NEVER lacking in the pastry, goodie, and cookie department. They offer a wide assortment of bagels. I've had the cheese, cheese and bacon, churro, and bruschetta...all toasted with cream cheese and cut in half because they are the perfect sharing size...or enough for the next day. And I can't seem to escape there without a GIANT cookie in hand. My go-to is the PB cup cookie but today I was feeling more festive and opted for the caramel pecan. I was not disappointed at all. I also saw one with Craisins so I may have to take a trip back for tasting purposes of course. Their holiday menu is out and I'm not gonna lie, I wanted to try everything on the menu. However I opted to mash a few together and ordered a iced gingerbread latte with oat milk and toasted marshmallow cold foam. The perfect seasonal drink that wasn't overly sweet but full of flavor.

    This is my first visit here as it was highly recommended by a friend of mine. This place seems poppin! There's a very long line for the coffee and pastry lovers. I heard that they make and bake their own scones. I ordered: 1) Macadamia Nut Latte with 1/2 syrup - a bit too sweet for me even if its 50% sweetness 2) Lavender Latte with 1/2 syrup 3) Ham and Cheese Croissant sandwich -i like it. The croissant is soft, flaky, and sweet. 4) Avocado Toast with spinach

    It's the best pumpkin latte I've ever had... that should be enough to take a visit. We stopped in after seeing a friend post all the Halloween treats. The inside is very small, but absolutely filled with treats, pastries, everything. They have breakfast and lunch items as well. Full coffee and tea menu. My only complaint was that it took 25min from ordering to receive the 4 pastries and two breakfast sandwiches we ordered.

    Such a cute and cozy coffee shop Rekindle has unique speciality coffees, impressive pastries, and a relaxing atmosphere. Perfect spot to catch up with friends or enjoy a quiet moment at their outdoor seating. Lots of parking in the parking lot. We tried the Happy Camper Latte, French Kiss, and the Happy Camper Matcha and the drinks were on the sweeter side but still delish. The cookies were so BIG! We shared the Oreo and the Red Velvet

    Bananas for you latte with oat milk
    Holly R.

    We came in here on a Saturday morning/early afternoon, right before their rush. We had a meeting here as it was recommended as a good place to talk at. The outside area would have been perfect, however the Santa Ana winds had other plans. We sat at the bar and granted, it was a little tight but it wasn't too much of a bother. We ordered a Bananas for You specialty drink and a Banana Cream Pie blended coffee. As someone who prefers it a little sweeter, the bananas for you was amazing! I have never finished my coffee so fast! My boyfriend, who does not drink coffee at all, loved the blended coffee and enjoy how the taste went well with each other. We are looking forward to coming back because their food items looked huge and delicious

    Cheesecake
    Laura M.

    Their coffee and cheesecake was great. I will definitely be going back. Cheesecake was almost $7 a slice. It was the best part of my visit.

    I'm all about supporting the small business. Since I've been going here, The service is always on point. The fresh baked goods are always fresh & amazing. No matter what style of coffee you're drinking. It always comes out hot or cold & very tasty. This place always has a crowd & Is pretty busy at all times of the days, but definitely worth the wait if You're looking for a Great coffee & some fresh baked goods or even maybe some or there breakfast items or some of there lunch specialties that they do on the daily. Go check this place out... the cool atmosphere and vibe here will definitely get you in the mood for a great cup of coffee.

    Tiramisu Latte Black drip coffee

    I ALWAYS pass by this place driving up the street and I've always wanted to try it, then today my mom said "let's try the coffee place next to our sushi spot!!" We came out and gave it a shot, the store is lovely, clean and the ambience is beautiful. The girl who took her order (I'm sorry I don't catch her name) was super sweet and friendly. We got our drinks and they were super good and we also met Rebecca, who by the way is a very lovely lady. We got to chit chat for a bit and then we were on our way. Definitely coming back! The tiramisu latte was soooo good!

    Bakery items
    Jenesa B.

    First I'd like to say how punctual they are in opening doors right at the time they have their time advertised. I like how this coffee- bakery spot is nearby home and it's open at the time where I can grab something quick. It's so clean inside and outside. You can smell the bread and bagels of the dough coming through when you open he door. It's nostalgic. I also enjoy the variety of drinks and food items they offer. We all love having options. Today I had orders a large Blended Banana Cream Pie. It's really large. I enjoy the flavors as it does come close resembling the taste of banana cream pies topped with these yummy crumbles. Next time I'll remember to order a small. But it's nice that the large you can definitely share with another person, or if you're not that easy, keep the entire thing to yourself. For food items, I had only ordered from their Breakfast menu, although they offer lunch items as well. Not sure if there's an exact time to begin ordering lunch during breakfast hours. The breakfast items I had ordered were an avocado toast and I asked if I can order that without the side salad, and also ordered the Husky Buster on a regular jalapeño bread and with bacon. No egg whites as it's pre-stirred with yoke but that's fine. Just was asking if they offered that option

    This was my first visit to Rekindle, and I came to buy bagels. Unfortunately, I have to disagree with those who think that rekindle's bagels are the best, they are NOT bagels, they are bagel-shaped rolls. Bagels must be boiled before they are baked in, which gives them that incredible crust, and that delicious chew These have not been boiled. So while they were tasty enough as bread, they didn't satisfy the need for a bagel! (As far as I'm concerned, nothing comes close to East Coast Bagels in Irvine; it's clear that I will have to drive there for all my future bagel runs.) With that said, the gentleman who waited on me was a lovely person to deal with, kind and helpful. The shop is cute, and the pastries look delicious. So if I do come back, it will be for a pastry and not for a bagel. L

    Narrow interior with limited seating; a long counter and about 8 stools.

    Bottom Line Up Front: I like this place and definitely plan to return. Now that I have that out of the way, I'm gonna discuss why it's not a perfect place -- it'll seem like I dislike Rekindle Coffee. Just remember, I'm a repeat customer and plan to keep it that way. The Setting: It's not a particularly large shop, with a narrow interior and limited outdoor seating. Inside, there's a long counter with stools, maybe 8 total, with a small counter around the corner (room for maybe 2 more people). Outside there's about 3 to 4 tables. This is not the place for large groups. That's balanced by the whimsical decor and solid music. When I came on a recent Saturday morning, they were playing Depeche Mode (Gen Xers will appreciate it!). The Parking: There's a limited parking in front but it shares a larger lot with the nearby strip mall. The Drinks: For a place with "coffee" in the name, I'm actually disappointed at the java. I got the cookie butter cold foam cold brew and found the coffee itself to be too sour and acidic. After stirring the cold foam thoroughly, it made the drink more palatable (though that isn't the point of cold foam). My wife got the snickers latte and we both agreed it was way too sweet and didn't taste like a Snickers at all. In fact, it wasn't worth the empty calories so we asked if we could "trade it in" for a different drink. Fortunately, the staff there was so kind and let us have a tropical tea as a replacement; and the new drink was delicious! The Entrees: This is where it's at! I ordered the bacon avocado croissant and it was yummy! Sure, it was a little overpriced at about $15, but it was quite satisfying and came with a bag of chips. My wife ordered the keto wrap (essentially a lettuce-wrapped sandwich) that she was able to customize with her choice of protein and veggies. Not only was it tasty but it was also huge -- think Chipotle-sized burrito, but keto friendly. It also came with a bag of chips. The Dessert: I ordered the blueberry cream cheese twist, which was $5 but a decent size. It was a little too soft for my liking, but certainly satisfied my taste buds. In fact, my only regret was not having more room -- Rekindle offers a huge variety of sweets, from muffins and scones to brownies and monster-sizes cookies. The Customer Service: The staff here sealed the deal. I was ready to write them off because the coffee has never been up to par, but the folks here were so kind, understanding, and knowledgeable. They really made me feel welcomed, and that makes all the difference sometimes. The Conclusion: It's rather ironic that I don't like the coffee at this coffee shop but love the food. If you enjoy sugary drinks (think Dutch Bros or boba), you'll enjoy their coffee. But if prefer strong coffee with traditional tastes (think Vietnamese or Italian), try the tea instead and stay for the food. My true rating is 3.5 out of 5, but I'm happily rounding up because of the awesome customer service and delicious sweet and savory food.

    Is there a decent seating area?

    Not really. Inside is pretty tight. Small seating space outside.

    Are the cakes, cookies, bagels all baked fresh by Rekindle or do you purchase any of the baked goods from bakeries?

    We have a baking department that comes in early in the morning to bake everything EVEN OUR BAGELS !

    Is there a reason why Yelp says they close at 8pm and I came in at 7:10pm and they told me they were closed?

    Have the hours changed and they never posted anything? Every time I drop by on my way home past 7pm, they are closed.

    7pm is when rekindle closes on Sunday evenings

    Are there any vegan pastries?

    Vegan bagels , super good with avocado spread and veggies

    What milk alternatives do they carry?

    I don't know them all but I do know they carry coconut milk...I order that with my coffee every time.

    Do they offer free wi-fi?

    Yes!

    Do you offer any gluten free options?

    They have gluten-free treats. I've had their gluten-free cookies and they are amazing!

    Can you order a coffee box/coffee traveler from Rekindle? I'm throwing a party and would love another option aside from starbucks.

    Yes, sorry for the delay!. We are always here for your needs with any event. Not sure how we missed you on this one.😉

    Does the bar where you sit have outlets?

    Yes they do! When I come by lots of people are sitting there charging their computers and phones

    When are the cinnamon rolls fresh from the oven?

    mmm... Yes, cinnamon rolls would be Perfect for a Monday Morning! I'll have to ask them to time them just right for me!
