    Coffe & macha Drinks
    Jus E.

    The perfect quick breakfast stop in San Clemente!We stopped by this chill spot in the morning right before heading out on our road trip. It is located right next to a surfboard store and has an awesome local vibe. The staff here were great and super friendly!The drinks were excellent--the coffee is really good, and the matcha tea was delicious. But the real star was the breakfast burrito; it is absolutely to die for! We loved every bite. If you are in San Clemente and need a quick, high-quality breakfast, this place is definitely worth it. We will absolutely be back and highly recommend it!

    I got the strawberry matcha from the seasonal summer menu. I was a bit skeptical when I saw that they pre-batch their matcha, but it was still pretty good! However, for $8.85, I wouldn't get it again. I will say that I enjoyed what I got, but I regret not getting a coffee drink here because of how delicious that espresso smelled. Next time I'm coming back for a cappuccino or iced latte. The seating inside was plentiful and the AC was lovely on such a sunny day. Can't wait to give it another shot some day!

    Avocado bagel

    Made a last minute stop in San Clemente before heading down to San Diego to get some coffee and a quick bite and am so glad we stopped here! The strawberry matcha was phenomenal and the avocado sandwich was better than I anticipated! The flavors were perfect together I can't even describe it. I'm more disappointed that I ate as fast as I did because it was delicious. They are also pretty busy in the morning but there's plenty of space. I will find a reason to come back more frequent just for the avocado bagel, I'm not from the area so I'm sad. Nevertheless this is a great choice for a quick breakfast and coffee. There's also ample parking available.

    Vanilla latte with oat milk

    Stopped into Sur Coffee while having a day in San Clemente and needed a caffeine pick-me-up. Sur Coffee is on the main road and close to a lot of other restaurants and the beach -- it was about a 10 minute walk. This unassuming coffee spot has a lot of great seating options, the service was super quick and the staff were friendly. I got an iced vanilla latte with oat milk which was smooth and creamy, the espresso wasn't bitter and the vanilla wasn't overpowering, exactly what you expect for a latte. It was a bit expensive, about $9 for an iced latte -- but the syrup and alternative milks were $1 each. Just something to consider. Overall it was great though and I'll be back when I'm in the area!

    First and foremost I have to say I am not usually a burrito girl, THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST BURRITOS I'VE HAD IN SO SO LONG! The sauce on the side was phenomenal! The place is so cute and there's so much searing for hanging out or doing some work! The girl at the register was super sweet and so very helpful! I gotta visit every time I'm in San Juan!

    Just absolutely the best coffee in San Clemente. I tried them all. Oh? The people: amazing. Workers are awesome. Amazing sense of community in here. Anyone can make good coffee, but Sur makes all who enter feel welcome, valued, and at ease. Sparking up conversations, showing love to people. It was great. Plus, mad zen. Tons of folks working, studying, or just enjoying some community time. Once more, the coffee is superb! The best I had in SC. This is a spot I will be missing big time back home in STL.

    Coffee is a 10 out of 10! I got a plain latte and it did not disappoint. They also do house made syrup which made my wife's vanilla latte that much better! Service was amazing too, everyone was so sweet and happy. Will be back :)

    The best coffee in SC hands down! I've tried them all and this one is worth the bad parking to get to it. The coffee is so much better than anywhere else in SC, there is always a line but it moves like lightening. I love a flat white or Cappuccino, but don't sleep on the cold-brew. And the girls that work here are friendly, pretty and they don't have the lefty barista, I hate men and America vibe you sometimes get. Sur coffee the GOAT of SC coffee houses! PS they started right when COVID hit and served the community and survived! This place is God ordained, go here.

    Awesome little coffee shop located right in the middle of SC. This place has a nice roast, good pastries and friendly service. Nice little indoor and patio seating areas. Good stop if in south OC.

    Sur is a busy little coffee shop in the downtown area of San Clemente. The coffee menu is simple, the syrups are house made and the baked goods are baked in house. The story of the shop is inspiring, as they partner with growers all over the world and donate back. Good space to hang out, do a little work. Indoor and outdoor seating. Pet friendly. Street parking. Good service. Casual vibes. Please come and create your own adventure.

    Raspberry Basil Olive Oil Cake
    Annette B.

    Very cute spot. Good amount of seating and a few outlets so you can post up and work. I couldnt decide between the olive oil cake and the cinnamon roll, so I got both. They were both delicious! The raspberry basil was a special flavor offered for the day. The customer service service was great. They were very friendly! New favorite coffee shop whenever I am in town or passing through :)

    Such an amazing place to enjoy a weekend coffee. The energy was high, everyone was mingling and enjoying live music. While the line was a bit long, the service was still excellent and quick.

    One of the worst coffee shop experiences I've had :( My boyfriend and I were in the area to do some shopping on a Saturday morning and the employees raved about this place! When we got there we found parking out in the back. There was no wait to order when we got there but a lot of people seated. The employees weren't unfriendly, but they weren't very welcoming. We ordered an iced vanilla latte and iced matcha. They called my name for the matcha first and as I tried to grab it the employee said it actually wasn't for Alyssa so I went back to sit down. They called my name for the latte and I went to get it and they said the same thing, not for me. I said are you sure? And then a second employee came up and said these are definitely for you, and the two employees started arguing about the system (they were looking at an order screen). I took the order and left. We tried our drinks in the car and they were not good at all. The matcha tasted like it had rotten coconut milk in it (which is weird because we didn't order coconut milk) and the latte was too sour for my liking. I would not recommend this place!

    Love the matcha!!! Do you guys sell it at the store?

    They do.

    Is the coffee organic or clean?

    We work directly with coffee farmers that engage in organic farming processes, however, our current offerings are not 'certified' organic.

    Is there somewhere to seat? Or is it more like a grab and go?

    Yes, there are plenty of seats inside as well as a patio in the back

I found it to be very pleasant and relaxing. The order taker with dark brown hair was super friendly with helping me pick my first drink, and he showed me all the signature drinks. He asked for my name and then instructed me how to pick up my order, which is on the opposite side of the bar area near the barista. They should call your name. It's kinda loud overall so you'll have to pay attention and listen We got a traditional vanilla iced latte as well as the coconut cream cold brew. Both were delicious. They use pebble ice. I'm generally not a huge fan just because it waters the drinks down a lot quicker. But it was delicious nonetheless very thick coconut cream on top. I only wish that the iced drinks were a lot bigger. But that would probably throw off the milk to espresso ratio. Outside, there's plenty of seating both couches and patio chairs. Inside cool vibes. I heard there's Wi-Fi but I did not use it. Really funky cool bathrooms. Overall, we had a great experience. I would definitely come back. I think prices are in line with everything else in town. You can opt for your drink for here which comes in glass or to go. We wanted to go in case we decide to get up early and go walk around. Street parking although there's some municipal lots. Pet friendly as well.

I ordered a muffin and the hua kai which is their cold brew with house coconut foam. The muffin was good. Perfect for pairing with a cup of coffee, but unfortunately I really didn't like the hua kai. The cold brew tasted almost sour and attempting to mix in some of the coconut foam did not help me offset the taste. I hate to throw away anything edible (and expensive) but I really didn't like their cold brew and could not get myself to finish it.

I visited Japan late last year and it was the best travel experience of my life, so to have a little slice of it here in my little town of Laguna Niguel is so special.

The barrels of beans waiting to be roasted in the front, the minimal menu, the pour-over style coffee for every cup, the chic industrious decor, super friendly service from every barista.

Genuinely surprised I haven't left a review sooner. It's a small, quaint shop with a clean and mellow interior, relaxing jazz playing in the background, and aroma of freshly brewed coffee that always transports me back to Japan. Daisuke and his team greet everyone with such genuine warmth that you immediately feel welcomed. Their hospitality is unmatched, but what keeps me coming back is the consistency. Every drink is made with care, and they're always happy to take the time to explain the differences between their beans, recommend something based on your preferences, and answer any questions without ever making you feel rushed. You can tell they truly care about both their craft and their customers. I usually order the café au lait, and it's the only coffee shop where I'm confident in asking them to make it however they like. Every now and then I'll also pick up a bag of their beans to brew at home, and I highly recommend doing the same. They carefully help you choose from their wide variety, then grind the beans for you or sell them whole if you have your own grinder. Grinding fresh beans takes about 15-20 minutes, so if you're driving from farther away, I'd recommend calling ahead or placing an order through their website for pickup. The quality of the coffee speaks for itself, but what really sets this place apart is the experience. It's rare to find a coffee shop where both the product and the people are this consistently exceptional. Where most coffee shops tend to rush you out I think the difference here is that you genuinely feel welcomed. Wishing Daisuke and the entire team nothing but continued success. They deserve every bit of it. If you're looking for incredible coffee, authentic Japanese hospitality, and a place that genuinely cares about what they serve, do yourself a favor and stop by. You won't regret it.

Grateful for groups of 4 to 5, we're coming here solo or for a coffee date. There are outlets along the front wall, our seating, and the booths on the side to get work done (great plus!). They do play music so noise level is average with the typical coffee shop. Sounds as well. What I really loved was the multitude of sitting areas around the whole coffee shop and also a little play area for toddlers. (Kitchen play) next to the door -- so adorable! Drink 5/5 I got a small lavender latte, it tastes super flavorful, strong lavender flavor, and I asked for a little bit light sweetness (less honey). Sometimes when I get lavender lattes, they have a little bit of bitter aftertaste, but this wasn't the case at all. They also have awesome looking seasonal flavors that I'll have to come back to try sometime. Service 5/5 I know others have had something to say, but everyone was super friendly and you could tell that coworkers got along -- seems like a really good work culture where people become friends :) Overall, I love to this coffee shop.
