Overhyped imo, coffee was okay (I got a latte), service was eh, matcha was below average (I have tried a lot of matcha places), and we got a blueberry muffin and also was okay I would go back if a friend wanted to try it, but not on my own

Banana Matcha Strawberry Matcha
Daniel C.

Probably the worst matcha I've ever had. We were walking along the main street in Laguna and saw a huge line at Wild Strawberry Cafe. Since I rarely come to Laguna, I figured if this many people were waiting, there had to be something worth trying. Unless it was just another mediocre TikTok spot... unfortunately, that's what it felt like. We waited 40 minutes (I counted because that's what I do when I review). The menu is huge and honestly makes everything sound really good. While in line, I saw the Monin syrups and almost had a heart attack. I still gave it a chance and we ordered the strawberry matcha and banana matcha. After waiting about five minutes for the bathroom, I came back and our drinks were already ready. First sip of the banana matcha: incredibly bland. I stirred it thinking maybe everything had settled, but nope. The banana flavor was weak and artificial tasting, and the matcha itself tasted like the kind you just add water to. There was barely any depth or actual matcha flavor. After a 40 minute line, this was beyond disappointing. I couldn't even finish mine and threw away about half of it. I try not to be overly harsh when reviewing places because everyone has an off day, but I genuinely don't understand the hype here. 0/10, unfortunately Yelp won't let me give 0 stars.

Triple chocolate loaf and banana chocolate loaf
Cheyenne G.

Loved this place! Had the banana chocolate loaf along with the triple chocolate loaf, soooo good! Moist and melt in your mouth! Also had the banana bread iced latte and my daughter tried the strawberry lemonade refresher and we were satisfied! The service was very friendly, the place is very cute as well. The perfect place to sit, sip, and yap.

Bacon breakfast burrito
Catrin W.

We skipped coffee this time and just ordered breakfast burritos. We were so bummed to see the chorizo burrito was discontinued! The bacon burrito and avocado burrito were still really good. If I had a complaint, it would be that you pay extra for adding either avocado or bacon, when the burrito needs them for flavor. They don't have their own salsa, but offer Tapatio if you want it. Overall, they were pretty good but I'm excited to try something else next time. Come here to support the nice staff members, listen to good music, and be walking distance to good stores. Lines are long but the wait is worth it. 3.9/5

What a cutie spot right across the beach! We came on a weekend and it got really busy right after we ordered - came at just the right time! What we ordered: banana bread latte, strawberry matcha, huckleberry donut, chicken pesto quesadilla, and the spanakopita. The drinks were decent! I do wish the matcha had a stronger matcha flavor as it was a bit sweet for my liking. The chicken pesto quesadilla was yummy + a generous portion! The spanakopita is a unique pastry I don't see often, and I was excited to give it a try! The donut was great, and even better warmed up.

Loved this place so much! They had the best breakfast. Their matcha is good quality, the croissant is crispy and flakey, and the pesto chicken quesadillas were the absolute best breakfast. I stopped in cause it was close to our hotel and it had all the menu items I wanted for a morning. Revisited because I loved it so much. The folks there are kind and attentive, and the place is super cute. Love the mugs and plates!

Unfortunately didn't have a good experience. What costs $30 worth of food, I wasn't able to enjoy and wasn't really a meal. I didn't take a picture of the quiche but it was super undercooked. The crust was soggy. Egg was runny liquidy slop and honestly I tried to eat it despite that and was just unpleasant. I ended up just not eating it. The poptart and fruit was the only redeeming quality. Pop tart was truly the best pastry I've had in a hot second. I wanted to like this place so bad but unfortunately the quiche left a bad taste in my mouth as well as the super inflated prices. Place feels like a overhyped spot, would recommend trying places a few miles away without the long lines and pricey food.

One of the few spots that really captures the best of Laguna. Incredible pastries, some of the best coffee and matcha around, plus a great selection of breakfast items and gluten-free options. Everything feels fresh, thoughtful, and made with quality ingredients. The space has that laid-back Laguna charm that makes you want to stay awhile, and there's enough variety that everyone can find something they'll love. Definitely a spot I'll keep coming back to.

Banana bread latte
Ethan N.

The cafe is really cute and the silverware and porcelain are very aesthetic. The service was pretty decent, we came for a walk and took about 5 minutes to order in line, then 15 for drinks and food. We got the banana bread latte and banana matcha. Both were really good. The latte was better, i enjoyed the drinks here. Also got a Mediterranean crepe, it was a bit bland and enough to feed two. Vibes were nice, it's not the biggest place but it's cute.

Best coffee shop in Laguna!! I've gotten so many different pastries, coffee, matcha, and breakfast here and everything has been 10/10

nutella crepe & breakfast tacos, strawberry lemonade & an iced vanilla chai
Maggie M.

My boyfriend and I have been coming to strawberry cafe since we first met, and it is by far our favorite plane to have breakfast/lunch. Service is always amazing and even when busy, the line goes by fast and we still receive our food quickly. I cannot say enough great things about Wild Strawberry Cafe! It is the best and has amazing vibes!

Michelle C.

An adorable cafe! I stopped by this cafe to grab a latte and a baked good. And, I received a delicious decaf oatmeal latte and a recommended lemon poppy seed muffin which I devoured! Service is kind. They have a small team of warriors who are ready and consistent in keeping the place clean. There's an accessible restroom that is also well kept. Outlets are hard to find so I wouldn't recommend this as a study spot. WiFi is available. The plating captures any tea-party lovers. However, it's a great place to check out before visiting the Newport Beach public library. God bless you all!

Burrito, turkey sandwich, matcha, and nutella latte
Shareen B.

My friends and I LOVED this cafe! We stopped by on a Friday morning around 10 or 11am. The line wasn't too long, and we were able to find seating for all 5 of us. Drinks were all so good. My friends got the nutella latte and dirty chai latte, and I got the hot matcha latte. The lattes were perfectly sweet and creamy. Their matcha comes unsweetened, so you can add syrup or use sugar packets to sweeten it. Most places sell watery matcha, but this one is decently strong and very vibrant in color. Still craving that nutella latte! Savory foods were amazing. I got the half turkey sandwich, and my friends got the chorizo burrito. I'm usually bad at finishing my food, but I got through my whole plate! I don't eat pork, so I didn't try the burrito, but my friends described it as cheesy and filling. Can definitely share one burrito between two people. The sweet foods were too sweet for me. We had banana bread, matcha cookies, and matcha scones. Really want to come back soon!

We sat at the bar, and the bartenders would have our "regular" drinks prepared almost before we sat down. We live in Laguna and had never been to Nicks here in Laguna! The food was a "B-" compared to our other experiences at Nicks in Pasadena. We asked for a quiet cozy table, and we were put next to the kitchen. It was so loud we could not hear each other speak. We had to ask to be moved outside which was not much better. If you are looking for cozy and quiet, this is not the place. If you want the loud bar scene, this is perfect for you. We will go back on a cold rainy night in the winter which should be better. Sorry Nick.

We never felt rushed or pressured to order quickly. I got the spicy chicken sandwich after seeing previous reviews, and my wife got the Lagunaian wedge and Mac & cheese. Everything was exceptional. I love blue cheese, but am not the biggest fan of fried chicken with cheese on it. This combo flipped me on my head, so delicious with the blue cheese slaw. The Mac & cheese was almost like a hybrid of a baked Mac and a gooier stovetop style Mac, and the six cheese blend added a lot of depth of flavor. We have already agreed that we will be back at least once more while we're down here for the chicken sandwich again.

Grilled Cheese - Seriously a MUST order. My picture doesn't even come close to doing it justice. So so good! Shrimp & Chorizo Tacos - We've loved these for years!

Ceviche - A little on the small side, but super fresh and great flavor :) The location is right on the beach with ocean views and that makes everything better We had a group of 7 and our server was awesome.
