I'm not big on overly sweet coffee, so the Activated Charcoal Latte caught my attention. It was perfect, smooth, flavorful, not sweet at all, with a subtle charcoal finish. Basically a really good latte with a unique twist. My boyfriend likes his coffee on the sweeter side and ordered their signature Iced Coconut Caramel. I stole a few sips and it was actually really good, with a nice coconut flavor. Cute, trendy corner spot with a local HB feel, and parking was easy. Service was decent, nothing exceptional, but perfectly fine. Definitely coming back, especially for that charcoal latte.

Friendly vibe with runners, walkers dog lovers and more. Server greeted me and answered my questions with patience. Since it was my first time, I ordered a small iced latte, which comes with two shots of espresso and whole milk. Solid drink. Not super, but I would come back. It would be nice if there was some shaded seating nearby where you see the beach tho.

We ordered the Dr. Joe (left) and the Bonfire (right). The Dr. Joe had an incredibly smooth, flavorful matcha with a unique blend that wasn't overly sweet. The Bonfire surprised me. At first sip I thought it was just going to be a great-tasting latte, but a little while later the espresso kicked in. Great flavor, quality coffee beans, and a drink that definitely delivers. The shop itself is a vibe. Modern, clean, and welcoming without feeling pretentious. You can tell the staff genuinely care about what they're making. They took their time with every drink, paid attention to the details, and were super friendly throughout the experience. If you're around Huntington Beach or riding through Pacific City, I'd absolutely recommend stopping here. This is definitely getting added to my beach bike morning routine. Highly recommend.

Brew Story is a solid spot, but I wouldn't say anything I had was particularly mind-blowing. The…read morematcha was decent, although the drinks overall leaned a little too sweet for my taste and felt somewhat basic and underwhelming. I originally wanted to try the Brown Sugar Coffee Latte, but they were out of brown sugar, so I ended up going with the Spanish Latte instead. It was fine, just nothing that really stood out or made me think, "I need to come back for this." The tuna sandwich was probably the highlight. It was good, fresh, and enjoyable, but again, not exactly something I'd be thinking about afterward. Overall, Brew Story is a perfectly decent place to grab a drink and a bite, but I think there's room for the menu to be a little more creative and memorable. 4 stars feels right good, but not quite great. Willing to update my score if I order better drinks or have a better experience regarding quality and overall flavor on my next visit. People really swear this is elite and / or one of the best in all of OC but it doesn't really reach the ayer , Airoma or Tatys level for me.

This place was actually right next to another tea café I reviewed for their mango sticky rice smoothie. Inside it was a little quiet and calm, but plenty of tables and chairs to sit down and work if you're into that type of thing. I came in for what I thought would be a vanilla latte, but when I saw they had Matcha tonic on the menu, I was sold. I also saw a spinach pastry in the enclosure, which I opted for as well. One thing that could be better, which I've also seen in other reviews is that there's no description of their drinks or food items. It would be really helpful if there was a name and description associated with their available offerings. Now that I've made my remark on improvements, let me tell you what they're getting right. This Matcha tonic was everything!!! I'm shamelessly obsessed with Matcha tonic and I've tried a ton in the local area and not everybody makes their Macha tonic the same way. This place does it right. A perfectly carbonated beverage with a quality Matcha pour on top was perfection and then the spinach and cheese pastry I had was a perfect compliment to start my morning. I cannot wait to go back, not so sure when I will switch up my drink, but I'll keep you posted when I'm ready to venture onto something else.

Me and my wife and kids came here to get some coffee after going to the park and I decided to try the signature miracle latte. It looked like coffee/espresso on the bottom with a sweet cream on top with some coffee bits. As soon as I mixed it together and tasted it, it was probably the smoothest and cup of iced coffee I've ever had. It wasnt too sweet but it had a strong kick, almost like a Vietnamese coffee but it was much smoother. I let my wife try and she ordered the same one after getting a Spanish latte the first time. If I lived near this coffee place I would probably be here at least once a week. The inside is very inviting, very spacious with lots of tables and even a play area for kids. Their coffee is great but they also have menu items that id like to try. I enjoyed this spot and hope to come back again to try more things!

I went around 12:30 pm and it was a packed lot. The store itself was too busy and felt cramped. The space seems suitable for smaller groups. At the time, there was a line before you could order. It took almost 10 minutes for the order to be ready. American Express is accepted here. Sea Salt Coffee: This was on the signature section so I had big expectations for it. It was a very small drink (9 oz). It was slightly salted, tasted bitter, and wasn't sweet despite having condensed milk as an ingredient. It wasn't good. Canale: Despite having to wait for the drink, I needed to wait longer for this because the staff forgot to put it in the order. I needed to wait for them to prepare it in the back and also go back to the counter to charge for it. All to wait for something that was mushy. Coffee Beans: I saw there were coffee beans from Glitch in Japan. It was a brand that I loved there so I wanted to give it a try. I don't usually like fruity notes but this was really delicious. However, it's extremely pricy for how little beans there is.
