    Basil Breakfast Sandwich
    Janae P.

    Brooke took amazing care of me. Her guidance through the menu was great. The food was delicious and that's all I needed!

    We found this cafe while we were in the area. I have mixed reviews because while our food was pretty good, it was definitely hard to find and not a lot of parking. The parking lot is really small so you might be circling the area to find a park for a while. When you walk in it's a kiosk with menus which can be misleading and make a line form but there's also a counter you can go order from. Once you order it's open seating. I didn't see any seating outside but it was a fair amount inside. We tried the bacon quesadillas (4/5) salsa was good), berry French toast (4/5) it didn't come with any sides so you have to order sides but it was good. The bacon and toast were pretty good too. I got a peanut butter banana smoothie to go and I loved it. It's a cute cafe spot to try if you're in the area!

    It was my first time visiting and I decided to grab some brunch from here. The menu choices looked really tasty! I decided to go with the Papas con chorizo and some French toast. I really enjoyed the French toast and it came out fresh and warm. The Papas con chorizo could have been better-- the potatoes seemed to just be luke warm and not fresh. I also tried their coffee that was okay as well. The maple cold brew tasted a bit watery so I would not get that one again. The Brown sugar latte was better!

    I was here a few weeks ago and had a wonderful experience. We ordered bulgogi fries for the table, the krave skillet, avocado toast, and the breakfast plate. We genuinely enjoyed all items. The avocado toast was also bigger than we expected, so that was a nice surprise. The coffee was also good! Service was great, everyone was friendly and helpful. The restaurant itself was clean and welcoming. Highly recommend to anyone in the area!

    the menu pic is quite exaggerated in its promise

    place is clean. staff is nice. i probably won't be back. i love dark berries, so i got really excited when i saw a menu item here that appears to be French toast rounds totally covered with dark berries. what just came to my plate looks nothing like the menu picture, and for these prices it should be pretty damn close. the french toast tastes good - better than many places - but I'm feeling distinctly cheated about the berries... which is the reason i ordered this in the first place. i also got a side of scrambled eggs. cold. i always prefer to patron local business, but today I'd rather have gone to Denny's. included pic. be warned the french toast with berries looks nothing like this when it comes out

    Pretty decent breakfast/brunch place! I got the chorizo burrito and it was yummy, but not the best. Parking was kind of hard to find as well. The workers were really nice and dealt well with the rush!

    Papas Con Chorizo

    The papas von chorizo was fantastic! Full of flavor and tasty. The french toast was good but I have had better. I was surprised at the sausage as it was grilled and very good! Check it out'

    Came in for a mid-day caffeine boost & Krave was the perfect place thanks to Brooke's amazing service! Ordered an iced London fog latte with oat milk, and it was absolutely PERFECT! Brooke really nailed the flavor pairings. Cafe Krave also had cozy & homey vibe. Looks like a good place for hanging out! The entrance door is unassuming and could easily be missed, so keep an eye out! There's also tons of parking in the lot. Overall a great cafe that serves quality drinks- highly recommend!

    Avocado Cream Cheese Bagel and Caramel Frappe

    I came here while charging my car and it was well worth it. The frappe was so good better than ... the bagel was also very good.

    Any chance of being open on weekend in the future? Was tasty when I came but it was just because I had that day off work now I can't go again.

    You need to be open on the weekends. There are a lot of local residents now. I ate here on veteran's day when I was off and liked it, but sad to see I'll never be able to go again because of work. Any plans to add weekend hours?

    Is breakfast served all day?

    Yes

    Will they be open normal hours on Veterans Day?

    Yes~~~^^

The establishment is new with a lot of seating. The display for the pastries was good, big, and clean. I had never been to this place before and asked the person taking my order what was a popular drink and got a response of "the lattes" no specific one but that. I asked which matcha was good or popular and she just said "all of them." I'm not picky but it's an honest question for being a first timer. I ended up getting two different drinks but didn't really want to stay there any longer than I had to because of the unwelcoming feeling. Don't know if it was the uniform or not. The drinks were good but the matcha was all milk, hardly and matcha flavor. I wanted hot but came cool. I didn't want to request it to be heated up just incase they wanted to do something to my drink. Don't know if I would go here again. I've been to another location and did not have this experience. So try it out yourself. The other location I went to was different, maybe cause I went through the drive-thru and my uniform wasn't seen until later.

    Omg! I just moved to the North OC area, and I'm happy to say I've found one of my new go-to coffee…read moreshop study spots in the area! :) I'm currently studying for a big exam, and it's been surprisingly challenging finding coffee shops to study at with the beautiful, modern, aesthetic ambience that makes me happy, without feeling anxious there won't be enough seats or space when I get there, esp since I have to drive a decent amount to get to cafes. I've been getting a little stir crazy at home and finally making the trek here was so worth it-- I felt more motivated than ever to get work done with a tasty treat. I'm not sure if it's because CSUF just started this week, or because I came on a Friday morning, but it was really spacious and open with tons of outlets (almost at each table). Not sure how other days are, but I'd love to bring my study group friends here in the future, since it's so hard to find places with enough space for study groups! Not to mention the clean bathroom haha and good wifi haha The staff here is also incredibly sweet and friendly, making it a comfortable and good experience. Because it was my first time, I asked the barista about her recommendation, and she also asked my general preferences to cater to my taste, and I ended up with a seasonal Birthday Cake Americano at half sweetness (since I don't have much of a sweet tooth). It was perfect for me! I don't usually get Americanos and have a sensitive stomach rn, but it was delicious and kind on my stomach lol. I also got a ham and cheese croissant, and maybe it could've been heated up a little more, but I did wait a bit to eat it, so it was no big deal. The other barista was also so sweet in answering my many questions haha The only struggle as others have mentioned is the parking - I ended up parking at the retail parking nearby, which had plenty of spots but can get pretty pricey, and it sounds like you can park in the areas others have mentioned still (like The Hub I guess has "New Here" parking spots or the employee parking spots?), so I'll need to look more next time. But there's quite a bit around the area within walking distance, you can easily make a day out of it too. Also since it is at the first floor of an apartment in a college town, there will be students going in and out, so just be prepared for that haha -- reminded me of dorm days, and I'm glad students have a spot like this :) Overall, the yummy coffee, amazing vibe and beautiful ambiance, especially as a study spot, alongside the kind and comfortable service has been just what I've been looking for in a coffee shop around here, and I'm excited to return! Thank you New Here!

    Vanilla Thesis is the best better than probably all the rest…read moreThe coffee is so tasty Not nasty or pasty Their cheese and ham croissant is also bomb better than being made by mom One thing to note about this place, the parking sucks. But fear not, you can go into the structure, park in one of the "employee only" spots, and just tell them which spot and you're golden (wish I knew that before I came and parked across the street). Also, another reason why this place is great is that it's not full at all. Might be because of the parking situation, but the place is near empty which makes it have a nice luxury vibe. Their Vanilla Thesis drink at 50% sweet is soooo good. It's a great blend of coffee and tastes great. You can totally taste the vanilla. Their ham and cheese croissant is also great.

    I wish I lived closer! Second trip, and now this is one of my fav OC coffee/tea spots…read more Brought my friend for her B-day on a Sat mid-morning in Sept. The line goes to the door much of the time, but they keep it moving, keep it kind, and the one barista keeps the drinks coming out so quickly that you barely have time to find a seat! It was pretty full again with half studier/workers and half friend pairs/ groups. We happened to come on the day they had a collab for jeans recycling with Madewell: donate a pair of jeans and get a free 12-oz drink from the "taplist" (regular menu list) plus a coupon for 15% off a pair of jeans! What a great and generous promo for a cause. Inside vinyl shops look fun. I am sad that the stationery shop is gone, but still looking forward to bringing my fam to check our the vinyl and fun drinks. The drinks: We came here just for the Fall Banoffee Latte because we crave/miss this British flavor. It was pretty good and a good sweetness, but I think toffee topping or a little more toffee flavor would've elevated it. I actually liked the free pour of Strawberry Swing even better! Green tea with strawberry flavor and a floral touch without bitterness. Had a taste of my friend's Princess Daisy green tea with mango/passion fruit, and it had a bit of bitter/tea flavor, but it grew on my friend's palate with every sip. The food: Only tried the cinamon sugar donut, which was tasty, solid regualr yeast donut topped with ?buttercream frosting and 8 or so cinnamon toast crunch pieces. The add-it-yourself maple drizzle dropper was a fun touch, though might've liked it a tad more viscous if possible (turned out looking like it rained maple syrup on the donut, heh). Plenty of parking on Orange St public parking lot or along that street. Now they charge at the lot, about $1.45 per hour (oh well, better than LA parking). Looking forward to returning! Maybe for the bananas foster matcha (heard good things from friend of a foodie friend :)).

    If I ever open a café, the atmosphere of Contra is what I would try to encapsulate. Music + great…read moredrinks + stationery corner = They occasionally have someone play vinyls and it adds to the cool vibe of the café. They have drinks on tap.
