    I feel like this place is beautiful and in a great location. The reason I'm giving it 2 stars is because I've been here twice, and both times there was only one employee working. The wait has been noticeably longer compared to other places, and the employee always seems overwhelmed and a little unhappy. I don't blame the employee at all--I would probably feel stressed too if I were trying to handle everything by myself. I think the biggest issue is that they simply need more help. Having additional staff could make the experience better for customers and, more importantly, help the employees feel less overwhelmed and happier at work. I hope the owner sees this review and takes it into consideration. I would love to see this place succeed because it really is beautiful and has a great location. Unfortunately, I probably won't be returning because the wait is too long, especially when I'm usually in a hurry when I stop for coffee.

    Just like the name, a solid coffee. So on my way to run errands, I decided to grab a coffee with my kiddos in tow. I didn't feel like waiting in a long line for Brew Story ( plus they don't take American Express) so I decided to give Solid a try. Parking is tight, but it is free. This coffee shop reminded me of Sundays in Newport because they offer an upstairs lounge where some people were enjoying their coffee and on their laptop. The front desk barista was very sweet and gave great recommendations, and to my surprise, they had a Yuzu Matcha tonic on the menu. Which if you follow me, I'm a huge fan fan of this drink specifically and I always order it if they offer it. I decided to grab a couple of drinks which were the Matcha tonic and the Earl Grey Matcha. To my disappointment, the Yuzu did not taste the best. It was a little flat and had a subtle sweetness. The Earl Gray Matcha however was phenomenal. It was creamy, not too sweet and the Matcha flavor with the Earl grey was a wonderful touch. I allowed my kids to take a sip of each one of the drinks and everyone agreed that the Earl gray was amazing. It's unfortunate that this drink is seasonal and will be going away soon. I'll definitely be back! So far I would choose this place over Brew Story. Easier parking, great matcha and not loud. Plus they accept Amex!

    Cute coffee shop that seems to be a popular study spot with seating on the 2nd floor! There's no outlets though so make sure your devices are fully charged! We got the matcha monkey and matcha meadow and although the matcha flavor was too light for my liking, it was still a good drink overall!

    Labor Day. Frontier Wifi down at home all week and tethering on my cell is weak (switching service on that too). Was looking for a place to do work with wifi and good coffee. Chose this place. Glad I did. Parking is rough, but there is a fair amount of seating upstairs to study/do work. I ordered win the day because I like dark roast, strong coffee. This hit the spot. They don't make it hot but thanks okay. I'd come back.

    Cute coffee shop, my review is solely based on the matcha. The matcha latte was not great. It tasted more like vanilla milk than matcha. I enjoyed the ham and cheese croissant and the staff were very friendly.

    Matcha Monkey (Banana Matcha), Melona Matcha

    Quiet work-friendly cafe in OC! Cute space, plentiful seating, very little crowds, friendly staff, and some outlets. Not the best for drinks but a good option if you need a place to work/study that opens somewhat late & isn't crowded. We tried the matcha monkey (banana matcha) and their new summer drink, melona matcha. Their banana matcha was pretty sweet and strong in banana flavor in the cream top and syrup, but lacked the taste of matcha. Same for the melona matcha. Super refreshing as it's made with cantaloupe milk but no matcha. Not bad but they're not known for their matcha, so I would stick to their coffee. Minor things to note - they blast the AC so I would make sure to dress warmly or bring a jacket. Parking can be a bit rough but I confirmed with the barista that they don't check parking at the front, so you can ignore the time limit!

    "Solid Coffee" is either the most honest name ever... or the bar was set very high. Luckily, they lived up to it. I pulled up while waiting on my sandwich from a nearby spot (multitasking at its finest), and decided to do what any self-respecting coffee enthusiast would do--wander into a local coffee shop like I know what "notes" I'm tasting. The barista immediately passed the vibe check and recommended the Groovy Gorilla iced latte--his personal favorite. Then he casually mentioned he makes it his own way, like some underground coffee remix. Say less. I told him to bless me with the custom version, and he delivered. (Shoutout to that man--he knew exactly what he was doing.) I also grabbed a massive chocolate chip cookie with sea salt flakes because... balance. You can't just have a handcrafted latte without a cookie the size of your face. That's against hipster coffee bylaws. First sip of the latte? Yeah... I got it. Banana, chocolate, peanut butter--basically if a smoothie and a dessert had a highly caffeinated, well-dressed child. Smooth, flavorful, and dangerously easy to drink. Only downside? It's in Huntington Beach and not LA, which feels like a personal inconvenience to me. But if you're anywhere nearby, this spot is absolutely worth pulling up to. Final verdict: great coffee, great vibes, and a barista who might secretly be a flavor scientist.

    Matcha Meadow (Lavender Matcha) @yassiG

    Very cute little spot, very nice service. Bathroom was clean and it's a tricky flush button lol. I love that it was a cozy entrance but then there's stairs up to a very large chilling area, with a bunch of chairs, tables, sofa chairs. I got the matcha meadow, soft vanilla and lavender notes. I enjoyed it it was light and not too sweet. I want to come back and try their other matchas and pastries.

    Blueberry Maple Matcha

    Order: * Creme Bru-Latte (my fav!) I got it less sweet and it tasted amazing, so definitely what I would go for if you like sweet coffee. Wished there was more of the burnt sugar crust on top * Blueberry maple matcha Less of a umami taste but more of creamy and floral flavored matcha. I tasted mostly milk and blueberry. * Strawberry shortcake Also another great latte! I got this one full sweet and it was definitely sweet but wasn't bad at all. There's a loft which makes a cute small space to study. Also, amazing service!! ANH made our day:) She was so sweet to us and is very knowledgeable about the drinks when giving us recommendations. SOLID cafe!

    Very cool layout with a loft upstairs great for studying. I like the interior design choices and it's nice and quiet. The matcha is on the grassier/bitter side and it didn't pair well with the yuzu sparkling as I would've expected. The Vietnamese cold brew was good but a bit underwhelming in coffee flavor.

    Strawberry Matcha Latte & Creme Bru-Latte
    Elizabeth S.

    Finally checked out Solid Coffee Roasters. The shop itself is super cute with two floor which is great for studying or just chilling. A really nice touch I haven't seen elsewhere is that the workers actually walk your drinks to your table for you. I tried two drinks: Crème Bru-Latte (7.5/10): Really solid latte and not too sweet. The description mentioned a torched brown sugar top; mine didn't have it, but that might have been because I ordered it iced. Still good though :) Strawberry Matcha (4/10) : This one was a bit of a letdown as it mostly just tasted like milk and lacked that strong matcha or strawberry flavor. Since there are so many popular shops right here, parking can be a bit difficult to get near their shop. Even though the matcha wasn't my favorite, the service and the atmosphere are great. I'm always open to trying new things, so I'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu

    Strawberry Shortcake Latte Peel Me A Latte

    Amazing and such friendly service! Justin was so attentive and helpful, and the place is really cute and has a great work space. We got a chicken burrito, banana latte, and strawberry shortcake latte. All their syrups and flavors are made in house, so no artificial flavoring, which is my favorite part! Thanks justin!!

    As the name suggests, this places brews a very good cup of coffee. It's located in a fairly popular corner of Warner and Beach. I came on a Friday morning around 8 am so there was ample parking. A clean modern vibe and a comfortable seating area above. Although there are many flavored coffee drinks on the menu, one can't really tell if the coffee is good until you drink it black. My drip was surprisingly good. I like my coffee strong and I'm biased towards light to medium roasts. I will double check on the bean used for the drip. Maybe even pick up a bag. I am on my way to a breakfast cafe to meet some friends this morning so I intend to bring my coffee with me. Most restaurants don't serve very good coffee :). This coffee detour was a good idea.

    I stopped by this coffee shop on Saturday with my fiancé, and it was exactly what we needed to kick…read moreoff the weekend right! The vibe is cozy and welcoming, with a steady buzz of customers that shows just how popular this spot is. My fiancé got the iced sweet cream latte and absolutely loved it! smooth, perfectly balanced sweetness, and the espresso was top-notch. I went with the iced Americano topped with banana cold foam, and wow, it was a game changer! The banana foam was creamy, flavorful, and not overly sweet, pairing beautifully with the bold espresso. Both drinks were prepared and refreshed us instantly. The only minor downside is parking, which can be a bit tricky, but the location is clearly thriving with tons of foot traffic and business out front, so it's totally understandable. Once you're inside, the excellent drinks and friendly service more than make up for it. We'll definitely be back soon highly recommend this place if you're looking for quality coffee and a great local atmosphere! 4.5 stars in my personal opinion

    I visited Inc Coffee Roasters around 12:30 pm on a Monday and luckily snagged a parking spot right…read morein front as someone was leaving. Parking is somewhat limited, but once inside, there was plenty of seating and lots of natural light. It wasn't very busy when I visited, so I was able to order and receive everything pretty quickly. I ordered the Breakfast Sliders and Einspanner Matcha. If you're coming here hoping for a Community Goods alternative, I don't think it quite lives up to that comparison. The Einspanner Matcha was very milk and cream-forward. Even in the photo, you can see that most of the drink is milk and cream with a relatively small layer of matcha in between. It's unfortunate because the matcha itself actually had a good flavor, and I think a stronger ratio of matcha to milk and cream would have made the drink much better. The Breakfast Sliders had good flavor as well, but the buns were toasted far too much during my visit. The edges were so crispy that they practically fell apart as I ate them. The idea is definitely there, but I would have preferred a much softer and fluffier bun, especially for this style of breakfast slider. Community Goods is a pretty high standard for me, so I don't necessarily expect another cafe to replicate it. Even judging Inc Coffee Roasters on its own, though, neither item was particularly memorable for me. It's not a bad option if you're already in the area and want a quick drink or bite, but there are a few things I think could be improved before I'd go out of my way to come back.

There was only one person working, but he was very nice and service was still good. We ordered the Egg Coffee at two different sweetness levels, 75% and 50%. The coffee itself is very strong, which I really enjoyed. The 75% sweetness was still a little too sweet for me, while the 50% let the bold coffee flavor come through much more. I'd personally order it at 50% next time. The cream was also really good, and overall the coffee tasted high quality and flavorful. If you're looking for a strong Vietnamese coffee, this is definitely a solid spot to try. There's plenty of parking available in the plaza, although the surrounding streets can get pretty busy. I'd come back and order the Egg Coffee again at a lower sweetness level.
