Simply Delicious bagel here with peanut butter
Tintin B.

What is the American Dream for you? A beautiful tribute to living the American dream is right here in this little coffee shop in Villa Park. Next to Ralph's supermarket with lots of free parking spaces and nice clean restroom available inside for customers. Enjoying your morning brew of freshly made traditional campana coffee hot cup. Sweet tooth lovers will love their nutty monkey and Bri's special cold drink. The charm and sweetness of this coffee place speaks volumes about the quality of life here in Beautiful Villa Park. Living the American dream is fulfilling the promise to share your gifts and talents with the world. Being able to express yourself with love and gratitude for all the sacrifices you've made to each other. Enjoying a single moment of peace and joy by sharing a cup of coffee with your friends and neighbors in your community. Live your dreams today and remember to bring joy to the world.

Iced Ava Special

Stopped in on a Monday morning around 10am. Plenty of parking available. Cutest little coffee shop I've been to. Loved that I saw a dog bowl out front before I even stepped inside. Outdoor and indoor seating available. Lots of coffee options available and a few bagels, muffins, and breakfast sandwiches available. Went with an iced Ava Special and a breakfast sandwich on an English muffin. The coffee was the perfect balance of flavors, sweetness, and coffee. I was able to get both items for under $10 which is amazing!! Cashier was super friendly and helpful. She gave me time to look over the menu and offered assistance if I needed it.

Finished raisin walnut bar with cream cheese, an iced chai latte and flat white latte in my own cup...

A nice lil cafe. Customers and their dogs are friendly and sociable and staff are also super sweet and kind. Coffee was perfect. Daughter's iced chai latte Very yummy and we shared a raisin walnut bar only because everything else was pretty empty at the hour that we came in, so that's obviously a good thing LOVE a locally owned cafe (not *bucks) that's been around a few decades

A nice coffee house and hangout for locals. Great service and good drink variety. Average pastries. Outside and inside seating. Fair pricing.

Playing Pokémon and enjoying good coffee!

This is my go to spot! Don't go to Dunkin' next door and sleep on this place. This cafe may be small but it has hands down some of the best coffee drinks. The roasts they use are delicious and I'm an espresso / americano kind of girl. My husband loves their Villa Park cold brew. He compares all other cold brews to it! The service is great, we're always greeted and offered changes to our drinks if we're trying something new. Sometimes we've been able to try samples of the menu if we're unsure (like flavored coffees). There is a little seating inside and then some nice seating outside. It can be busy before 10am but after that is the best time to go, in my opinion.

I came out here to try this place since it's close to my neighborhood. It was a bit of a struggle to find it because it was right next to the bank and easy to miss. When I came I found a line forming outside, and noticed that's there's very little inside seating. The staff is very friendly and they offer lots of substitutes! I will say that it's not the most quiet coffee shop, since it was hard to hear the other person speak from across the table. Overall my drink was decent, and the staff was friendly.

Stumbled upon this little local spot and was happy to give it a try. I didn't know what I wanted exactly, but I knew I wanted an iced flavored drink. What do you know, the special was "Ava special"- and iced nutty coffee with caramel, chocolate, and cinnamon sprinkle. Perfect! They were out of regular caramel but subbed sugar-free caramel and that was fine. Minus one star for the lack of masks in that crowded cramped space. But I'd be back and maybe buy some coffee beans too.

Iced vanilla matcha

This place is so cute! I've come in twice now and loved my drinks both times. I got the strawberry matcha and vanilla matcha. I like my drinks sweet and they were perfect for me as made. The staff is so nice and friendly! I came in at 6:40am on a week day and there were a handful of people you could tell were regulars. They were all sitting together and chatting. One customer brought in a birthday gift for one of the staff. I loved that! So much better than chain coffee shops.

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 :)).

I have enjoyed all of their drinks so far so will definitely be back to try more!

It's not often today for the owner of a business to reach out directly to a customer - she did and it was a very positive engagement. There are time that even the best business has a hiccup and something goes wrong. What makes a huge difference is how the business responds, and therefore, Rekindle gets five stars. I'm certain my next visit will be fantastic - I'll be posting an update in the near future. Wow - So Disappointed! Rekindle was at the Taste of Orange this year and I enjoyed one of the Italian sandwich samples they were handing out. It was fantastic! We met the owner - she was very charismatic and charming. Today we stopped by to grab an Italian sandwich, and I just cannot believe they served me bread that was so old and dry - it would have been perfect for croutons, but definitely nothing like what we had at the Taste of Orange. The bread was so dry I had to dress it up with some olive relish to eat it - I don't expect when I pay $31 for a sandwich and chai iced tea latte to get home and have to start working on my sandwich. I accept some responsibility for this, because honestly, who goes to a coffee shop for a sandwich.

Oh, The Lost Bean... I'm at a loss for words…read more I really wanted to love this location. I've been a customer at the Tustin location for years, so I walked in excited. Unfortunately, this visit was one disappointment after another. We arrived at 8:30 a.m. hoping for a peaceful coffee-and-breakfast morning. Instead, we accidentally wandered into what felt like a Janis Joplin tribute concert. The music was blasting at nightclub volume--not exactly the relaxing start to the day we had in mind. But surprisingly... that wasn't even the worst part. The food was incredibly disappointing. I ordered the breakfast burrito, and the potatoes were still raw--hard enough to remind me they were once part of the ground.. My husband ordered the French toast, which looked suspiciously like it took a quick detour from Trader Joe's frozen aisle before landing on our table. There's nothing wrong with frozen French toast... unless you're charging $14 and calling it brunch. Another friend ordered the granola with berries. After a few bites, he gave it a skeptical look, pushed the bowl away, and decided breakfast simply wasn't worth the gamble. The coffee was decent , but honestly wasn't worth fighting the neighbors for a parking spot!
