This place is simply amazing. I can't not add a review of it, but at the same time can't quite explain how great the whole experience from food to service was. It is a must try. We have already decided that we will be back tomorrow. read more

Upon walking through the door, I knew immediately I wanted to give them my coffee money. It's a sweet, cozy cafe that has an old time European feel. This place feels inviting, asking you to stay awhile to talk to a friend over coffee, read a book or write in a journal. The friendly staff on Saturday afternoon indicates that they may have regulars that come through. They spoke to a few people as if they have known them awhile. When I walked up to the cashier, I was greeted with good energies. After eating enough pretzels and beer to keep me full, I only came in for a cold brew to take as I drive home. The wall has their regular menu but if you look at the paper menu hung at eye level by the cashier, you will see their currents specialties. I ordered the hazelnut Kyoto cold brew and it was simply amazing- smooth, balanced and not too sweet. I will definitely be back if I am ever in the area. read more

If you're anywhere near Huntington Beach, do yourself a favor and stop by The Coffee Tale -- I'm genuinely obsessed. I'm someone who drinks coffee daily and frequents a lot of different coffee shops, so I don't say this lightly... their coffee is AMAZING. Every cup is smooth, rich, and consistently perfect. You can tell they really care about quality. Beyond the coffee, the whole experience is what sets this place apart. The vibe is warm, welcoming, and just the kind of spot you want to linger in. Their sweets are just as impressive -- fresh, delicious, and the perfect pairing with your drink. And the staff? Truly some of the kindest people you'll meet. The owner is incredibly sweet and creates such a genuine, positive atmosphere that you can feel the moment you walk in. This place checks every box for me -- great coffee, great people, great energy. Don't miss it if you're in the area! read more

Came over during the holiday season. This area is fully decorated, and has a good holiday spirit. There is a Christmas market outside of the coffee shop. This coffee shop gave me a Turkish vibes. Cashier was friendly, and service was fast. I ordered a dark chocolate latte with oak milk. The coffee was on the pricey side, and the taste was not as good as I expected. Parking was difficult. The parking lot is a bit small, and it was full. Not likely to stop by again. read more

The good: We got two fall seasonal drinks: Turkish fog (like a London fog but made with Turkish decaf tea) and a toasted marshmallow and caramel. We also tried a Boston cream pie cake that was tasty and wasn't too sweet. The drinks were good and were served warm. They were sweet without being overly sweet. I liked that my toddler was able to enjoy the decaf Turkish fog. The interior had Moroccan lanterns, Turkish decor, Christmas decor and was dog-friendly. They had both indoor and outdoor seating. I liked that their seasonal menu had a lot of options (including pumpkin spice lattes!). The parking lot had fun phrases like "good night" in French. The bad: The toasted marshmallow latte was supposed to come with cookie crumbles but didn't. The interesting: They played cool music like Phantogram but it seemed to becoming from just a speaker by the window so I'm unsure if it was from the cafe or from an individual customer's phone/computer. They're located in the Old World Village so there's a European/German flair outside. read more

The perfect place for a quiet cup of coffee. Pleasant staff. Very nice owner. Great coffee.

As I was walking by the aroma was intoxicating. Once I finish my shopping, I walked past again and there was that aroma again. I put my groceries in the car and walked back so I could get a coffee. There was only one young lady working there however she was very efficient and working very quickly when I told her what I wanted she asked questions and offered me several different options making sure that I got the best coffee while I was there she wanted to make sure that I got the right kind of cup. not just any cup she went above and beyond I highly recommend this place. The coffee was superb. This is a quaint place and I said people sitting in there chatting a couple people on tablets. I would definitely go back again and I want to tell them thank you for being there and having such a wonderful coffee take read more

The Coffee Tale is a turkish coffee shop located in Old World Village that serves organic coffee drinks. [Parking]: There's a designated private parking lot for Old World Village, but the lot can get super packed and I highly recommend visitors to park at the alternative parking structure at 7767 Center Ave (there will be a sign that directs visitors to this structure during the busy holiday season). [Atmosphere]: Cozy atmosphere and the shop gave this classic tea house vibe with Mediterranean vibe. Free Wi-Fi, but due to limited capacity there is a 2-hour limit with each purchase. There also a small outdoor patio area. [Menu]: The top Yelp highlights are Dark Chocolate Latte and Chai Latte. Customers can request for flavored syrup for an extra $0.75 to their coffee drinks. They do offer Turkish coffee for anyone who's interested in something different. *** Cinnamon Dirty Chai Latte ($6.95 + extra $0.75 with Dark Chocolate): I will have to admit I wasn't expecting the drink to taste this good - smooth finish & not overwhelming sweet. Baklava ($3.25): Tiny portion (I was able to finish this dessert in two bites), but it tasted great with a hint of molasses aftertaste. *** A nice cafe to check out in Old World Village. Visitors can also walk around the village with Christmas market vendors during weekends in November/December and The Biergarten at Old World HB. read more

Being born and raised in the HB/Westminster area, I never once stepped into Old World Village. And now I'm wondering why not?! It's so cute and adorable in this little shopping center transformed into some place right out of Europe! My sister and I stopped by this cute little coffee shop along with my two kiddos. We shared a Turkish spinach pastry and I had the Double Chocolate Coconut Latte. I'd say the pastry is an 8/10. Nice and flaky and flavoring was as expected. The latte was for sure a 10/10. Delicious! Service was friendly and helpful. And honestly, coming here just for the ambiance isn't a bad reason. So cute! read more

1. The latte was blended nicely with hints of raspberry! Not too much ice! 2. The spot has cute casual vibes! The interior is definitely cozy with cool decor! 3. This spot has both indoor and outdoor seatings! Small number of tables for both areas! 4. Two parking lots that can get crowded if there is an event! Spots are double-lines and not compact! 5. The staff was friendly and timely with my drink! It took less than 10 mins! Note: I did not easily see a bathroom available for customers! It would be good to check with the staff!

The closest spot available for a meet up that's open late Sunday afternoon with great reviews and decided to check it out. It's located inside the old world village and not too hard to place. I was able to find parking right away. I ordered mocha and matcha latte (ice). The mocha was good but on the lighter side and so was the matcha. There were some tables outside and it was quiet and chill. This is a nice little spot for hangouts. The service was stellar and the owners were really friendly and personable. read more

Tucked inside Old World Village (right across from Costco), The Coffee Tale is a cozy Turkish café with character. There are two parking lots in the village, parking in the back is easier and saves you from walking around. They serve Turkish desserts like baklava, the green part is pistachio, and inside it's sweet and honey filled with a crispy bite. Both the coffee and desserts are reasonably priced. The indoor space is small but uniquely decorated. Many people come here with books or laptops to relax. There's also outdoor seating available.

I got a puppacino for my dog, a Turkish coffee (tasted earthy in a good way of course) a chai tea latte (cinnamon was delicious on top) and then a spinach barek which tasted so good. Service was quick and so friendly. Would come back again as I think we just found a hidden gem. read more

Amazing taste fresh organic coffe and friendly people coffe shop us very cute and like some home

Overwhelmed due to Oktoberfest. They are probably experiencing 3 times the amount of customers. Staff seemed overwhelmed and less than happy or friendly. When I asked about coffee of the day she said they sold out and made it a point to tap some sign I was supposed to see that noted that. I guess I don't frequent this place enough to know the rules. She said something else but I stopped listening. I ordered a large drink and was tried tobe talked onto a small drink and I don't know why. Then I was sts dong on the wrong side of where they serve the drinks and basically told to move then 2 seconds later told to move again because that's where they keep their ice freezer. I thought about moving on out the door but I already paid for the coffee ($7). In the end coffee was good. read more

I loved finding this gem of an area! I had no idea it existed. I decided to check out this place because the reviews for the chai latte were promising. I'd give the iced chai latte a 3/5. It was a little watery and they use the Oregon Chai concentrate brand but the flavor was there. The highlight of this visit was the cookie it had walnuts in it and it was warmed up. Sooo yummy. The guy at the cashier was very nice. No wait when I got there. And there's a few tables suited for studying. read more

The Coffee Tale is such a gem. Tucked inside the cutest little German Village in Huntington Beach, this locally owned spot has quickly become one of my favorite places to settle in for a few hours. The space is surprisingly roomy, with plenty of seating that doesn't feel cramped, and the overall vibe is calm without being silent -- perfect for catching up with friends or getting some remote work done without distraction. Their organic coffee is absolutely delicious, smooth and flavorful without any bitterness. But the real standout is the Turkish coffee. It's rich, aromatic, and honestly divine -- the kind of drink that makes you slow down and savor every sip. If you're looking for a cozy, welcoming café with great drinks and a relaxed atmosphere, The Coffee Tale is a must‑visit. It's the kind of place you end up returning to again and again. read more

Stopped in for coffees to go on a Sunday morning around 8am and the person working was apparently quite put out by me being there. I asked a couple questions about the menu and he seemed incredibly annoyed. I just ended up grabbing a couple basic coffees and getting out of there as quickly as I could. It was a strange experience. read more

Place offers a variety of coffee and syrups with a lot of pastries as well. The coffee is on the strong side but also tastes good. I got a cinnamon bun latte and it was a balanced mix of flavor and espresso, I would definitely recommend this laid back ambiance with the Europe theme in the surrounding areas. read more
