I got the jasmine tea macchiato, good jasmine flavor. The drinks definitely a bit on the pricier side but not bad. We got two things to eat as well. I got the sausage and cheddar bagel on a jalapeño cheddar bagel. It was very good and it matched the image they had of it on their display menu. Good amount of egg, sausage, cheese and chipotle mayo. Highly recommend. My friend got the hot honey avocado toast.....which was disappointing. They had an image of it on their display menu and it looked a lot more loaded on the image than the actual one was. The avocado was cut veeeery thin and didn't even cover the whole toast. The hot honey was good but for 15$ the toast was definitely a let down.

The shop was full and the vibes were right. Will definitely be back.

Pour overs vary in prices based on which ones you get. The more expensive ones do not necessarily taste better, it just depends on your flavor profile. People who work here are all very friendly and they are always busy. There's plenty of seating as you can sit in the lobby of the business center as well as inside and outside the coffee shop. Parking is validated for up to two hours if you park in the parking lot across the street.

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.

I've now been to both The Nook in Costa Mesa and Torrance and I can confidently say... I get the…read morehype. 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!

Just wow! I wanted a good healthy smoothie and I found this place here on yelp and after looking at…read moretheir menu I knew I wanted to try the yacht club smoothie! My husband decided to go with the cherry one and they were both so good but definitely the favorite one was the yacht club! I love the ingredients and also that you can customize it a little bit. The flavor of it was so refreshing and the toasted coconut was so good. The cherry smoothie was tart but with a hint of sweet cream or coconut? Not sure but it was very good! I also noticed they have Giselles! I love Giselles desserts but unfortunately they didn't have the donuts or the cake pops so decided to skip it. The shop itself it's very small so I don't think is to hang out in there. Customer service was great, can't wait to be back

In addition to smoothies, they also have fresh pressed juices, açaí bowls, and grab and go items like chia seed pudding, protein bars, gluten free cakes, and vegan desserts. I got the Strawberry Swag smoothie (imitation of the Hailey Bieber smoothie from Erewon). It was alright, but I'd rather it be a bit thicker. It was very runny. The women who worked the shop seemed very overwhelmed or annoyed even. There wasn't a big welcome or much customer service at all. I'm sure they're working hard because they also have to-go orders too. I am a big believer that a little kindness goes a long way.

I will have to say that their menu looked so appetizing but fell short. Their KRISP burrito was basically a super hard tortilla - not crisp, HARD and stiff - with very oily contents. Obviously, a breakfast burrito is going to have oil, but it was a bit much considering it was dripping out the whole time. I couldn't finish eating it. The matcha was pretty good but I think their food was such letdown so I wouldn't make the 30-40 min commute through traffic.
