    Happy 2024 Red Cup Day!
    Jenny C.

    Challenge accepted when visiting my local Starbucks, when I remember (of course), I love that Starbucks has made it so easy to bring my own cup. :) This Starbucks located corner entrance of plaza shared with other businesses so traffic off Bristol can be congested (particularly when exiting from the drive-thru route). The interior is a standard layout with 8+ small two-seater tables. But what really makes my recent visits stand out is the friendly service from the staff. I've got to give a special shout-out to the lead male barista, who works Friday mornings, forgot to catch his name, who's when not too busy always offer suggestions on drinks. Not only is he super friendly and efficient, but he's always happy to go the extra mile to make my "standard" iced shaken espresso a little more special. One day, he suggested adding a packet of sea salt and a drizzle of caramel -- and it was perfect. I am now a proud owner of a customized drink!! Yippee ;) I really enjoyed the slight customization so had it twice this week!

    Made a pit stop here before heading to the beach, line moved fairly quickly. The barista who took my order spoke very fast, it was a little hard to understand if she'd gotten everything right when repeating the order back to me. However when I pulled up to the pick up window everything was correct. Just wish she'd slow down a little more. I ordered my go to Starbucks drink, along with a cake pop for the kid. Everything was as expected from a Starbucks.

    On a hot day like this nothing better than a Starbucks black iced tea I like this location cuz it's easily accessible in my area only thing is it wasn't very busy when I went in today and I did have to wait a little longer than I should have just for a nice tea but I'm not going to complain to the staff

    Jo and croissant.

    Major points for being open promptly at 4;30 am Sunday morning. Ow. That had to hurt. Confections were hat and consistent. Dark roast good. I tend to patronize Peet's due to the following: Starbucks espresso machine setup rarely gives me a good crema. Today 2 shots. No crema. That sweet crema would-da make a miserable morning a lot better. Whasnt surprised. It's all Starbucks. Poor to no crema.

    Perfect color pink drink (x coconut milk)

    One of my favorite locations. The staff are pleasant. I usually receive my order quickly. If you have the loyalty rewards, Starbucks offers a drink of your choice on your Birthday.

    One of my favorite Starbucks to go to I like going here because of the drive thru. And it's close to my job so it's convenient. Sometimes the line is out the street so don't go during lunch! They're customer service is awwwwsome Everyone is great. You can also order on the app and pick up drive thru. Remember to ask for a free venti ice water.

    Constant drive through line.

    Terrible cappuccino at this location. Might get it right 2 out of 10 times. Workers are very friendly though, hence the two stars.

At the Costa Mesa location, parking was a little tricky at first, but after circling we got lucky with a corner spot. The location itself is SO cute! It's right next to colorful barrel fountains, and on a sunny day it honestly felt like the perfect coffee outing. The line was pretty long and you are standing in direct sun, so just keep that in mind, but the service was quick and efficient once you order. Inside, it's small but really charming, with Sunny Angels hidden around and a very open, friendly vibe. My sister (who is basically a professional coffee drinker at this point ) got the matcha and said it was her favorite, which says a lot. I got the iced Spanish latte with oat milk, and it was SO good. Spanish lattes are my go-to, and this one had the perfect hint of cinnamon without being overly sweet. Even as the ice melted, it still tasted great, which is rare. The Torrance location was just as good! Parking was easier, the space is bigger, and the service was still super friendly and fast. My husband got the cold brew "Nook way" and finished it in like 10 minutes. He said it tasted like Golden Grahams cereal. Highly recommend both locations and especially the Spanish latte. Definitely worth the visit!

Hands down some of the best coffee in OC. If you don't like sweet, don't get a drink with flavoring. Or ask them to adjust. Simple! If you want something yummy and different, try their seasonal menu. I have never once felt like staff was rude. Every interaction has been authentic and genuine. The best. Lastly, long lines happen because this place has grown A TON post-COVID. They're also in the same building as a church, so get there early on the weekend or sit in line and enjoy the atmosphere. There's a friendly crowd there. Thank you Lion & Lamb for being a consistent go-to since Covid. You guys rock.

For our drinks, we got two signature drinks: *lucky matcha* and *cookie butter latte* They're both on the sweeter side but still good. They live up to the name and description. You're able to taste the marshmallow in the matcha and the biscoff and cinnamon on the latte. For food, we got *avocado toast* The bread was very fresh, thick and moist. My favorite part was the pickled onions. I'd definitely get it again. And the *breakfast burrito* is okay. Nothing outstanding - they did tell us they get them made a day before and they warm up upon order.
