There are also a few other businesses inside, including BK Grill if you are looking to grab a meal before or after your coffee. In addition, there is plenty of places where you can sit, work, chat, or study. The prices are a little on the higher side, but the comfortable atmosphere and spacious seating help make up for it. My friends and I ordered a kettle of Kashmiri chai to try. Service was good and the chai came out in a few minutes. Unfortunately, the chai was disappointing. The color looked great, and I was expecting a rich flavor of chai, but it ended up tasting very watery. Honestly speaking, it was more like hot water rather than a tea. We ended up forcing ourselves to finish the kettle before heading home. I was quite disappointed because I had high hopes. However, I am willing to give it a second chance and try a different drink on their menu and hope for a better experience because Ilike the atmosphere and the overall concept of the place.

Their coffee has such a strong flavor and there are many variations with different flavors, spices. I enjoyed the mango and strawberry matcha as well - they use good quality matcha. Of the desserts, the milk cakes are good for sharing but my top choice is the honeycomb bread, which is filled with cream cheese and topped with honey drizzle. The cafe is pretty spacious area with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, good for catching up with friends or doing some work.

Now, I'm usually a cheesecake, chocolate cake, or crème brûlée kinda gal. Tiramisu and milk cakes aren't typically my first choice, but they looked delicious in the display case that I decided to give it a shot. We ordered the Tiramisu Milk Cake and the Saffron Milk Cake, along with a couple of Rose lattes, and they completely exceeded my expectations. Light, creamy, fluffy, and perfectly balanced. Not overly sweet, not soggy or swimming in espresso...just incredibly fresh. It's one of the best I've had in a long time. Their cakes definitely set the bar high. I enjoyed the atmosphere just as much. The outdoor patio is spacious, making it a great spot to meet up with friends, bring your laptop to get a little work or studying done, or simply enjoy a coffee. The space is warm, welcoming, and filled with beautiful, unique furniture. While in there, you almost forget you're in Orange County. Highly recommend! I'll definitely be back to try their savory menu next.

Too bad it was not closer to home but if I am ever in the area again, I will definitely stop by and try other items too. Parking is plenty but beware there is a Tesla charging station before it. The service was to the point and no fuss.

Most seating is indoors with a couple of outdoor tables too. I ordered a hot Spanish latte plus chose a blueberry jam muffin from the pastry case. And a Campfire Cookie as a bonus. The place was fairly full but I found a seat at a counter. The Spanish latte was superb with smooth coffee and cinnamon flavors that blended for a perfectly balanced profile. I appreciated it was at an immediately drinkable temperature. The muffin was really, really good. Really. It was moist, fresh, and full of blueberries and a layer of blueberry jam. The big cookie was quite good, although in all honesty I've had better in this genre. I didn't stay long as there was some annoying guy who'd set up office at a table with his AirPods firmly inserted and loudly giving legal advice in an obnoxious manner that is typical of ambulance-chaser lawyers. Why do coffee shops put up with this?

I recently had the chance to indulge in their offerings again just a few weeks ago and they kept me powered for my shift all night.

I also love that they offer bottled lattes to take home so you can enjoy them during the work week! Some of my favorites are their Churro latte and vanilla cardamom. The owners are always super sweet and professional, and their aesthetic really elevates the experience at the events I've been too! Solid 10/10!

Nothing screams picnic quite like an iced latte and panini pairing. I ordered the chicken pesto panini, apple chai kombucha, and a mushroom iced latte. This latte did loads for my social meter.

Would love to return and explore more of their food menu.
