Everyone is very friendly here and they're very efficient as well, we did not have to wait in line to get our latte. They have Wi-Fi and it's crowded with people working. It's a small Starbucks and they have free parking. Nothing exceptional, nothing horrible, just a regular Starbucks in a strip mall in Irvine

Super good Starbucks location that is large, spacious, and beautifully decorated. The entire interior is neat, organized, and modern with a huge coffee belt map on the wall. The food and drinks are prepared well, and the staff are very friendly.

They have seating available outside & inside. I always do mobile order & they have it ready quickly! Took 1 star off bc parking in this lot can be a nightmare, depending on what time you come... I have questions for the designer of this parking lot. Anyway, either have a friend drive you & drop you off so you can run in, or just park far away & walk over :\

Never had an issue getting my customized drink at any other locations but these one. I order Starbucks on a regular basis at least 5x per week, like I mentioned Never had an issue till the past 3-4 times I had ordered at the Irvine spectrum location. I have to ho back to had them make it right, I tried giving them a few chances but after today I won't be spending my money here anymore even tho I work next door. I asked the barista to fill a little more of the cup since I'm used to getting it to the top, she replied with "you only paid for 3 shots of expreso" I showed her my past drinks which clearly are full. No wonder the have really bad reviews and bad ratings. Please stay away from this location. I got more foam than anything else. Hardly any caramel which I also asked for. I attached a Picture of my regular drink looks like at other locations.

I'm hooked into the Blonde Cortado which just perk me up with just the right amount of caffeine for me. Cortado tastes like a latte but not part of the latte family :) I like the ambiance here especially when it's raining looking out from the big windows is so calming.

Iced Horchata Oatmilk Shaken Espresso, with Chai Cold Foam!

I really want to start doing this for Irvine spectrum stores to vouch for workers because as a food service employee myself, there are so many guests that forget they are being served by human-beings and many employees forgetting they are serving human-beings as well! That is why I would like to vouch for Sam for excellent customer service who made my morning by suggesting I add chai cold foam (I think?) to my iced horchata oat milk shaken espresso and it was delicious. She was super nice and thoughtful during my experience and hope to see her again the next morning I visit!

Reserve selection.

Great Starbucks in Irvine. Access was easy. Parking was good. Next to Whole Foods Market, Marufuku Ramun and many eateries. Staff was all pleasant and helpful.

Audry, unprofessional, lazy and very rude.

I came in to get some work done, I ordered in house. The girl Adry who took my order was very disrespectful and lazy, refusing to make my order as asked. Which was a brewed coffee with steamed oat milk over ice. Claiming she couldn't put it in a glass cup with steamed oat milk?! She finally took my order, then delivering iced coffee in a glass no oat milk and said I could use the oat milk at the station! Following I asked for a wet napkin as using agave packets is messy. The barista whispered something and proceeded to get a cup of water directing me to get my own napkin. When calmly sharing I will be discussing this with a manager Adry burst out, What do you want me to do? I shared how simple it is to make a coffee with steamed oat milk and pour it over ice. Her response was the same, she can not put steamed "milk" in a glass claiming it will burst! Yet she put hot coffee in the glass? Again my request was incredibly simple and made to be a problem that didn't exist! Make the drink and pour it over ICE! The glass is not going to BURST! How absolutely ridiculous. As I continued my work I observed the manager on duty being fed food by Adry in front of customers which was BEYOND unprofessional and demonstrated the true lack of professional manners being operated at this location by this particular staff. Traveling all over southern Ca I have never had someone be so rude, disrespectful, lazy, ignorant, and unprofessional for such a simple request! I wouldn't recommend this location if Audry is working just expect unprofessional attitude! After coming the day before and having such a divine experience I was expecting to have the same today! Unfortunately that was not the case, although the only reason for giving any stars.

I always try to stop by this Starbucks to grab my coffee and croissant. Everything is delicious. Staff is great, price is affordable. Highly recommend

As usual, it's one of the best parts of my day. Everything was nice, organized, and the coffee was perfection!

Iced Lavender Soymilk Latte, Lavender Creme Frappuccino
Elly L.

I tried the new lavender drinks so you don't have to! Or do? I'm not a huge fan of lavender, but I like to try new things so take this review with a grain of salt. I wanted to try the iced lavender cold cream foam matcha, but I think they misheard me and gave me the lavender latte instead. It was pretty loud around the time I came by, so I don't blame them at all, I'll just have to try it another day. They had run out of oat milk today so I had it substituted with soy milk. ICED LAVENDER SOYMILK LATTE: The blonde espresso flavor kind of overpowers the lavender, so it's a bit muted but you do get an aftertaste of the lavender flavor. Not sure how I feel about this one, I think if you like their blonde espresso lattes and want a different twist then this might be a nice change. All I can taste though is burnt beans with an aftertaste of lavender. LAVENDER CREME FRAPPUCCINO: If you have a sweet tooth, this is kinda nice! It's reminiscent of fruity pebbles and the lavender flavor is much more prominent. Mine was a bit too icy, and was hard to sip because the ice chunks were too thick to go through the straw until it melted a bit more. I will definitely order this again but will ask for an extra scoop of lavender powder and double-blended. :)

This is kind of funny…read more After work, I was searching for a coffee shop nearby like I usually do, but nothing really caught my attention. So I decided to search outside the area where I live, and that's how I ended up finding this place. The funny part is that I had actually been wanting to visit this coffee shop because I saw their "Fun Flight" menu and thought it looked so interesting. I kept telling myself that I had to come try it someday. But when I searched this time, I was actually looking for a real coffee roaster and ended up here without even realizing it was the same place. Parking was easy and there were plenty of spaces. There are also other shops around, so I don't think parking would be much of an issue. The coffee shop itself was clean, bright, and nice and cool inside. I noticed one of the employees carefully cleaning the glass, and they kept wiping down empty tables and windows throughout the time I was there. Honestly, I've rarely seen someone cleaning so consistently at a coffee shop, and I really appreciated it. It made me feel like they genuinely care about cleanliness. Since it was already afternoon, I wanted something decaf, so I asked if they roast their own decaf coffee. They told me that they roast everything themselves, which immediately gave me more confidence in the coffee. I ordered a flat white and sat down, but then I realized I had completely forgotten to say "iced." Sure enough, I saw the employee making a hot drink. Well... that's totally on me! Soon my coffee came out with a beautiful latte art on top. And then I took my first sip... Oh my goodness. This is GOOD coffee! There was a slight acidity at first, but as I kept drinking, the acidity faded and I was left with a smooth, nutty, creamy latte flavor. I personally prefer medium roasts over dark roasts, and this roast was exactly my kind of coffee. Now I'm suddenly very curious about their matcha, too. I also liked that the overall pricing wasn't too expensive. The Wi-Fi did seem a little slow at times, but it wasn't slow enough to really bother me. And now I'm still sitting here debating whether I should order the matcha latte... The coffee was definitely delicious, and I already know I'll be coming back. Next time, I'm absolutely getting the Fun Flight so I can try several different coffees! Great coffee, clean space, friendly service, and reasonable prices. Definitely worth another visit!

Came here on a whim yesterday to nest and study and I am so glad that I did! The coffee shop had…read moreplenty of seating and was very clean (I'm a neat freak so was definitely happy about this). They also had several outlets for to charge devices if needed and delicious air conditioning. The baristas were very friendly and kind and the atmosphere felt very comfy and relaxing. I especially liked their very chill music playlist. I ordered: - iced matcha latte w oat milk and vanilla (barista recommended) - banana oatmeal with cinnamon, peanut butter and choco chips - plain bagel w cream cheese I really enjoyed the iced matcha, it is probably one of the better ones I have in OC. The matcha was super smooth and with the addition of the vanilla it created a sweet happy layer to it. I need to come back to try the other drinks! The banana oatmeal, while looking very tasty, didn't pass my satisfaction meter. The oatmeal in the bowl was cold and it was a thin layer of oats that laid on the bottom of the bowl. Presentation great, but for 9$, I would have wanted there to be at least 1-2 more scoops of oats in there to make it worth it. The plain bagel with cream cheese, I really enjoyed. The bagel was huge and it has a good toastiness to it. Additionally, the cream cheese was very light, not too rich and it helped make a delicious carb. Overall, I would definitely come back here to try other drinks and pastries from their menu! I also loved that the parking lot is easy to access and there are ample spots! Definitely try this spot, if you're in the area!

I know Blk Dot Coffee has been around for a while now and that there have been places like them in…read morethe Bay Area (with more opening up), but I still can't believe how Vietnamese coffee is only now becoming more mainstream. Between how coffee obsessed and sleep deprived we all are an how much caffeine packs, it always seemed like a no-brainer that it would catch on, not to mention the fact that it just tastes so good. As belated as it may be, though, I'm just glad that it's become easier than ever for me to get my Vietnamese coffee fix! At any given time, especially on the weekends, it seems like the line for Blk Dot Coffee will reach the door (or even stretch outside), but it's partly due to how popular this place is. Inside, this place is pretty small with just enough room for a small line to order, a display with merch and apparel, and some space for folks to wait for their drinks. Yet, despite its small stature, the menu has an and fairly extensive selection of offerings, from their Vietnamese coffee-based drinks to a mix of tea/matcha and fruit-based options. They also have a decent array of small bites as well, like bagels, toasts, breakfast bowls, and sandwiches, but we've never been hungry enough to try anything. -- VTM EINSPANNER - Vietnamese Coffee Latte, Sweet Foam Top, Cocoa Powder This was so, so good! Not only did it have a nice punch of caffeine to it, but I liked how the bit of sweet foam and coca powder added a touch of creaminess and richness. Plus, wasn't quite as sweet as I feared it would be (though, still sweet as a whole). -- MANGO DELIGHT GREEN TEA - Green Tea, Mango Jam, Chia Seeds, Crystal Boba A bit on the sweet side, but not bad otherwise. While this felt a little syrupy, I did like taste of the green tea and the mango jam. The chia seeds and boba were fine, but I would've been fine without them, too. -- UJI MATCHA EINSPANNER - Uji Culinary Grade Matcha Latte, Cane Syrup, Sweet Foam Top, Cocoa Powder Sadly, now as impressive as the VTM Einspanner, but still not bad. The sweet foam added the same creaminess to this one, but, in this case, there was too much of it, as it really took away from the taste of the matcha itself. -- YUZU MANGO MATCHA LATTE - Uji Culinary Grade Matcha Latte Infused with Yuzu Jam and Mango Cream It's a shame that this seems to be a seasonal drink because it tasted so good! It also helped that the weather was so warm when we had this, but I really liked how well the match, yuzu jam, and mango cream all complemented each other. Delicious! -- ORIGINAL ICED VTM - Signature Slow-Drip Vietnamese Coffee with Blend of House Creamers Not sure what their creamer "blend" consists of (just tasted like regular condensed milk), but this was terrific! Although the first sip was strong and quite sweet, the flavors became a lot more balanced once the ice started to melt. As far as service goes, the workers at the register have always been really friendly, but, for better or worse, nothing else has really stood out (the interactions have always been brief). However, what definitely has stood out are the baristas making the drinks. Watching from the side, it's impressive seeing the sort of organized chaos that was going on - a constant flow of cups/drinks waiting to be made, bottles of milk, syrups, and ingredients that go into all of their different concoctions strewn about, and workers humming along grabbing supplies, making drinks, and calling out orders. If there was one knock about my experiences at Blk Dot Coffee, it'd be that it can take a little while for orders to come out when they're really busy. While it wasn't so bad the first couple of times we were here, it took about 15 mins the third time. With that being said, it's not like the same thing can't happen at a Starbucks on the way to work or at some milk tea joints. Personally, for something as unique and delicious as Blk Dot Coffee's VTM Einspanner, I'm more than happy to wait!

I recently stopped by Blk Dot and ordered the iced matcha with maple walnut milk. It was very…read moretasty and the service was great. The barista was polite, welcomed feedback, and made a quality drink with the options available. The ambiance was clean and simple. There are few places to sit, but staff kept the store clean and running well. That shows good frontline staff. The challenges: The maple can become a bit sweet, so it would be nice if they had quality dairy alternatives. Pacifica is Not a quality brand. Seeing Pacifica in a coffee shop is usually a sign of bad management priorities to me. Pacifica is cheap and gross and if managed wants to listen to customers then getting a quality brand like Califia Barista would be great. I like Blk Dot so I hope they will listen to customer feedback.

What else to say about Chaupain, except it's always exceptional?…read more I'm biased - but their pastries have got to be the best in OC. This is the 3rd Chaupain location I've been to, I happened to be in the area. It's smaller than the one on La Paz in LN to be sure, but ample size enough to provide anyone with full tastes of their amazing goods. I like everything - I've tried nearly all of their pastries and cakes, this time I tried the cinnamon roll- which was insanely good, soft, and tasted of such quality. Actually - never tried their quiche, which is certainly on a bucket list for next time. I highly recommend everything they have - but just to name a new, the guava cream cheese, cinnamon cream cheese, mixed berry bateau, opera cake, vanilla scone, any of their croissants, lemon tiramisu, and the jamon sandwich is incredible - I love that the bread had a chewy texture, which is perfect for this sandwich. Adding any of the American condiments would almost be a sacrilege, but a bit of dijon is good, which they have there in packets- the flavours work so well together. I really struggle to restrain myself when coming here, which necessary for your wallet and your waistline - but whatever you decided it's all good here. The customer service was also stellar - very friendly, helpful, and personable. Thank you !
