    Where sweet meets savory * September Cafe might just be one of the cutest aesthetic cafe spots in OC right now. From the cozy decor to the bright natural lighting, every corner is literally made for Instagram pictures, study sessions, or just hanging out with friends for hours. What I love most is how big their menu is~ they have everything from matcha, coffee, smoothies, fruit teas, and so many food options to choose from, so there's honestly something for everyone. Their drinks were not only super pretty but actually refreshing and flavorful too. And you NEED to add the little ice bear on top of your drink It's only an extra $1 and honestly so worth it because it makes every drink look 10x cuter for pictures. Such a small detail but it really adds to the whole experience. The vibe here feels super welcoming and relaxing with plenty of seating and space for studying or getting work done without feeling cramped. Definitely one of those cafe spots you'll want to keep coming back to whether you're craving drinks, food, or just a cute place to spend the day

    Pandan Ice Cream

    Craving dessert randomly late one Tuesday night and stumbled upon this nice dessert cafe while on the area. It's a nice sized store with plenty of tables inside and some stool seating that faces out to a busy street which is always nice to watch cars drive. The vibe was very chill and mellow at the time i went, great for reading a book or bringing your laptop to study. This place offers a variety of teas, coffees, ice creams, cakes, and croffles on their menu to name a few. I went with a single scoop of their Pandan Ice Cream which costs $5.50, but you get 5% off if you pay by cash or venmo. The service was very quick and the server who brought my ice cream out to my table was friendly. The single scoop was a generous portion and it came with oreos which was a nice surprise. The flavor was right on point, not too sweet, but you can still taste the pandan in each bite. I'll have to come back next time to try their other desserts!

    Came back today courtesy of management to try something different. Asked for rec on what would be less foamy and more of a dark roast, so got the Vietnamese coffee hot with condensed milk. It can be summed up as what I would call an espresso. There was a votiv of something next to it which I can only say is the same thing that could have been poured all in the same cup upon serving. All in all better than my last experience, and also had their crème brûlée. I would say these two were solid, would not order the breaded things I had last time and stick to just the coffee and crème brûlée.

    Sundays call for brunch aaannnddd coffee dates. I've had this spot saved for a while and finally got the chance to check it out. Parking: Free parking lot. There's a small/medium parking lot. Finding a spot can be easy. Ambiance/Environment: The interior is very cute. They have a decent amount of indoor seating. There's a small den with a booth-ish seating. There are regular-height tables and chairs and shorter tables and chairs. It's a studious environment but also a nice spot to hangout. Service: The cashier that assisted me was simply efficient. Throughput was quick after ordering. We only waited about 12 min for everything. Drinks & dessert: The menu can be overwhelming. They offer small bites, desserts, milk teas, coffee, fruit teas, teas, yogurt, blended drinks, etc. Although the photos of the drinks look appealing, the presentation doesn't match. I was told they no longer offer drinks in a glass even if you're dining in. All drinks are in to-go cups. I got the Truffle Coffee, Vietnamese Black Coffee (with no sugar), and Egg Cream Toast. If you prefer your drinks strong and bitter, then the Vietnamese Black Coffee will be perfect for you. The bear on top is absolutely cute. Make sure you drink this properly - always let Vietnamese coffee sit and don't slurp it in two gulps. Hence why there's a lot of ice. The Truffle Coffee tasted exactly as it sounds .. I thought the flavors were okay, but I believe truffle should only stay with savory dishes lol. The egg cream itself was thick and creamy. I was expecting some fancy french toast along side with it, but it's literally just toasted white bread. Pricing: More on the expensive side for coffee in OC. I'd come back to try their other drinks bc they all sound appealing. I wouldn't get the egg cream toast again.

    Hot coffee
    Nick N.

    Came here with my dad for some coffee after lunch on his recommendation. Now my dad is very hard to please when it comes to food and drink - particularly Vietnamese coffee. He spoke very highly of this place which is all but a guaranty of quality. Sure enough, I was very satisfied with the coffee, it's on the stronger side which is perfect to me. I had iced while he had the hot. We were helped by Alisha who was very friendly. Very cozy, classic coffee shop vibe. Pay with cash / zelle / venmo for 5% off! Also free wifi so come here and enjoy some good coffee and desserts to relax or do some work.

    September is an adorable cafe with plenty of seating and sweet/savory food options for studying or catching up with friends! The desserts are both made in house, and I'm normally picky about desserts but theirs are light, airy, and not too sweet which I loved. The individual decor on the drinks were the perfect cherry on top. we got their matcha cherry blossom (not too floral), tiramisu coffee (coffee base + cream top) and mango yakult (so refreshing/slightly carbonated). For foods we chose finger foods like the precut cream cheese garlic croissant and bread sticks (ham, cheese, pork belly!) with a crispy exterior. Favorites were the desserts!! I loved the berry choco mousse and passion cheesecake. We also got the oreo and tiramisu bunny since there's a buy 3 get 1 free promo! overall the price is amazing considering everythings made in house, and the staff are so sweet and attentive.

    Lady at the front was welcoming and kind. Came on a Monday so the shop was quiet and cooling. Has a couple of outlets just in case you need a place to study with WiFi printed on your receipt. Had to get the cute jelly animals for fun! Both the drinks and the treat was yummy and will come by with other people in the future!

    Dee H.

    Found this dessert place at the corner of Bolsa & Hazard that has a wide selections of drinks & some small eateries. Their desserts are decent with an interesting presentation..like their bathtub display holding an Ube dipping sauce to go with their toast. Their croffles (croissant waffles) are a bit on the dry side. But, good thing their desserts are not overly sweet! Overall service is warm. And the place is welcoming with a modern touch. Good place to hang for those with a sweet tooth!

    Such a cute spot for handcrafted drinks and desserts. We came here after dinner for ice cream, and it was so full! The decor is beautiful and a great place for doing some work or hang out with friends. And their And the lady we serviced us was very sweet.

    This spot is so adorable! The service was great and she was sweet to help us out. All the desserts were great and not too sweet! I absolutely love this place and will be back soon!

    when I say every corner in this place is aesthetic I am not lying. Me and my fiance decided to stop by on a lil lunch date. Service was very nice and friendly, and there was lots of seating room inside. Menu was big with very aesthetically pleasing drinks. We got a biscoff latte and an iced matcha. The drinks came with these cute bear shaped ice cubes on top. we got a sampler platter w/ beef spaghetti, quail eggs, shrimp udon, bulgogi salad & garlic cheese bread & these cute hamster cheesecakes/mousse. Overall I definitely recommend this spot out for a date/study session.

    Stephanie N.

    Wow, the two drinks I got were so delicious that I wrote a review right away. I originally just ordered the Tornado Biscoff Latte to go, but they accidentally gave me a watermelon lychee tea too. My husband let them know it was a mistake, but they let us keep it. The Biscoff latte is strong, just how I like my coffee -- not too sweet -- and you can really taste the Biscoff in it. Every sip had yummy chunks of Biscoff. The watermelon lychee tea was also so refreshing and delicious. I would probably ask for it less sweet next time, but the flavor is perfect and captures the fruit flavors beautifully. The service was great, and the ambience is beautiful. There are great photo ops -- some ladies were even taking pictures with the décor.

    Ask the Community - September

    Do they have plugs for laptops?

    Yes, there are charging stations in the walls. Please ask for assistance if you need help locating.

    Do you guys offer an alternative for milk, so instead of whole milk, can we replace it with oat milk?

    Yes they offer oat milk, almond milk and soy milk for alternative

    Is this place dine in only or is to-go available?

    Both, dine in and to-go

    Do they accept cash?

    Yes they do!

    Does the place still sells the "ice cream hotpot" if so, how much is it? Because I can't seem to find it on your menu here

    I went 23 days ago (and left a review) and they still had it then! It was about $30, I believe.

    Do you use any peanuts/peanut products in your drinks/food?

    We are a peanut free cafe. However we do have almond, so almond was processed in the same facility as peanut.

    Good place for studying? Any plugs?

    There's a lot of seating that would be great for studying but there are not many outlets.

It's a really cute spot in Fountain…read moreValley, and they're serving everything up and down the gamut of coffee, from Vietnamese to some of these! Walking into the shop, you're greeted with a dark gray concrete vibe with plenty of matching decor. They've got some multiroaster vibes too, which means they're slinging beans like Dak, La Cabra, and more! Robusta and Arabica heads can both rejoice! They've also got a nice little patio to just rest and relax at while you enjoy your drinks. I've had a few pretty deep conversations coming out of this place. Okay, even though I did come to a coffee shop, I did end up getting a hojicha latte that was roasty, nutty, and delicious alongside the vanilla notes that they add. Great choice for some of you who don't do so well with caffeine. It's easy to drink, and thoughtfully prepared! I got something a little different. It was a strawberry co-ferment espresso in a cappuccino ratio. You could really taste that strawberry come through, and having it hot and with milk was a perfect choice. Fruity, complex, and funky! Love to see places serving co-ferments. I don't think it's over-played in specialty coffee, and I do appreciate having the option! And, I didn't get it today, but getting a fancy pour-over at this spot really hits. If you coffee sweats like the fun stuff, you'll have plenty of that here! If you're looking for both fun coffee and great day, no doubt you should check out Re Ca Phe!

    Re Cà Phê is located in a plaza with plenty of parking, which already makes it really convenient…read more The café itself has both indoor and outdoor seating, and the whole space feels cozy and aesthetic, making it such a nice place to just sit and take in the atmosphere. The workers are really nice and welcoming, which made the experience even better. I tried their Earl Grey Matcha Latte, and it's honestly one of the best I've had. Not many places offer this combination, so whenever I see it on a menu, I have to try it. What I really liked about this one is how well balanced it is. The earl grey is light enough that it doesn't overpower the matcha, so you can actually taste both flavors clearly without one taking over the other. The Hojicha Vanilla Cream Latte was also really good. The cream on top was silky, smooth, and rich, adding a nice layer of sweetness that paired well with the roasted, nutty flavor of the hojicha. It made the drink feel really comforting and well put together.

Paderias is a 9 out of 10 for me and it never disappoints. My 2nd fav is their triple chocolate. Those two are hands down my all time picks. Ordering is done through iPads which is simple to navigate. You have to come early to snag their items because they do sell out rather quickly esp on the weekends. The interior is very clean and beautifully designed. Plenty of parking and easy to spot the location!

They do have some outdoor seating as well. We also shared the kinako hojicha soft serve, which was yummy, but the kinako is only on the top layer so once you finish that, it's pretty much gone.
