    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.

    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
    Yassi G.

    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.

    This is what top quality coffee taste like. This location is in a strip mall with several restaurants. I visited on a weekday afternoon and found plenty of parking in their lot (but I can see how it could get packed during busier times). The first-floor interior is small, just enough room for ordering, but there is second-floor seating and several tables outside under cover. I didn't go upstairs so not sure how much seating is up there. I ordered a hot vanilla latte. They had a plentiful pastry case which made making a selection difficult since everything looked so good. Even though their croissants and donuts looked yummy, I decided on a large chocolate chip cookie. I sat outside and relaxed. The latte was exceptionally great thanks to a perfect roast. The vanilla was light but exactly enough not to overpower the delicious flavor of the coffee. The cookie was also flawless, thin, fresh, and slightly crisp with chocolate chips in every bite. Considering the friendly service and comparable pricing, this place gets a SOLID 5 stars.

It's more on the sweeter side, a bit too sweet for me. The more it sits, the sweeter it becomes but I really liked the flavors of it. Salty caramel apple matcha - 7.8/10, it's so good!

And if you're familiar with einspanner, essentially it's coffee with whipped cream in it. So that's exactly what I went for. The café is clean and trendy. The baristas are very sweet and after a few minutes my drink was ready. I gave it a little mix and took my first sip. I will say the coffee itself is strong. You can definitely taste the coffee, but it's something about the thickness of the whipped cream that didn't quite mix well with the coffee even after a good mix, the coffee is on the thicker side, which I didn't love. I believe I'm more of a cloud top person that's more airy, which is easier to get mixed in than a thicker cream. maybe I'll love it if I get it hot so that way the cream melts into the hot coffee, but having it iced isn't for me. I'll come back when it starts to get cold outside.

    Kei Concepts empire expands again!…read more I'm not from the OC so I can't comment too much like I can do for the Chubby Cattle Empire, but it's neat to see their businesses pop up and the vast variety that they endeavor to do culinary-wise. This place has been on my friends want to visit list and I wanted a pick me up and to grab a bite to eat to start out our day. It's located at the corner of an already fairly busy plaza with lots of eateries and other businesses there so parking can get a bit tough, but we were able to wait for somebody to leave and take their parking. Just keep this in mind if you go at an even busier time of day. There was a line to order, but there's different ways to order, either at their kiosk or with their cashier. While in line, you can take a look at their menu or at their merchandise which looks like it has the title card text from the Evangelion series. Very amusing. If you're local or are a fan, you can participate in their passport series and get, I believe, 6 stamps, to exchange for a tote bag. Cute art of some original characters and a tiger. Maybe they can duke it out with a Korean smoking tiger if they truly wished to do so. There's light bites here, fridge items, desserts, coffee, teas, matcha, etc. Some counter and bar seating, outdoor seating (all taken and super limited, but it was cute and pink), and lots of tables and chairs throughout, but it was packed when we went and packed when we left. Easily a very popular place to hang out or to get some work done. For our visit, we got the: 1) Vietnamese Coffee Aussie Series: -This is a Vietnamese coffee with a milk soft serve on top and Milo powder on top. Sweet and indulgent dessert-like drink. Nice coffee taste to it. -I got to enjoy the milk soft serve before mixing it into the coffee. It's a coffee float if anything and you can't go wrong with it. It's not overly sweet even with adding everything to it and I was able to sip it and enjoy it for a bit afterwards too. I would like to try other versions of this too. 2) Classic Egg Sando: -It's very light, bread is sweet. -It's pre-packaged in a plastic container. I've had better egg sandos at other cafes and at the maid cafe. The mayo is very, very light, and it's more of a snack than anything filling. I'd skip this. 3) Popcorn Chicken: -Asked for their five spice cayenne powder on the side and it comes with some yuzu mayo. -This was alright. Reminds me more of western style popcorn chicken in a nugget style, rather than the popcorn chicken that you would get at a boba place. Some of the pieces are in square pieces which is a bit strange looking. Slight crisp exterior, a bit bland even with pouring and shaking the entire powder onto it. Sauce made it a bit better. -Maybe getting the spicy version is the call. I took a sip of my friend's Banana Toffee Latte at no added sweetness to it. Nice subtle banana after taste. Slightly roasted flavor. Not too sweet or strong. Solid latte drink Drinks were good. Food was a bit of a miss, but I might give their pastas or baked goods a chance next time.
