Bluestone Lane is one of those places that checks off every single box in my book. There's nothing like a perfectly cured cup of espresso or tea while you're looking over a small menu that has well thought out and clean ingredients. I have to admit that the Aussie style breakfast is along with different twist on certain things that you wouldn't typically have for breakfast or initially caught my eye. I started off with the golden latte. It was a beautifully balanced turmeric latte with almond milk with a perfect amount of sweetness. Not only was it gut healing, but it's super warming on a chilly morning. While I was looking over the menu, I was between the breakfast burrito since everybody was ordering it or the soft scramble with chili oil. I landed on the soft scrambled chili crunch. It was served with a half avocado and rye toast the others in our party ordered pancakes, bacon, a chicken sandwich and a Yuzu drink. Everything came out in a timely manner and beautifully plated. I absolutely loved the soft scramble on Rye. It was a perfect serving size as well as hitting the spot for a not so traditional breakfast. As we're sitting there, I noticed everybody was ordering the lemon ricotta pancakes, so I could not resist and ordered some as well. I will say the most underwhelming part of that was the lemon ricotta pancakes due to the ratios for the pancake pancakes and lemon ricotta. Overall, my experience was spectacular. I cannot wait to go back to Bluestone Lane to try other menu items. read more

Cute little brunch spot in Old Town Orange. The food is delicious and has you leaving energized for your afternoon activities.

This place is fantastic. We were instantly welcomed by a very sweet young lady with red hair. I LOVE being greeted in this way-it sets the tone for the whole experience. Our server was great and the other young lady that helped cash us out was so personable. 5 stars for the staff, now onto the food. You must order the BL Burrito and vanilla latte. The burrito was flavorful and not spicy. I would order it again for sure. Excellent experience. read more

Located a block away from the Circle, this charming eatery serves breakfast dishes (all day) and sandwiches as well as various coffees. I came with a friend for a late lunch and, upon entering, was told to take a seat anywhere. There are many tables inside and a nice patio, but it was too hot on this day to sit outdoors. We were immediately given a carafe of water and soon ordered our meals. I decided on a croissant sandwich with bacon, scrambled egg, cheddar cheese, with chipotle mayo, along with a hot mocha. The sandwich was superb! The fresh croissant is what really elevated it. The ingredients were all basic but the combination made for a perfect breakfast sandwich. The sandwich came with wedges (I used to call them jojos), which were crisp outside and potatoey-soft inside. Yummy. The mocha was exquisite, a perfect blend of espresso and chocolate, served at an immediately drinkable temperature in a cute mug. Best mocha I've ever had? Probably! Note: Easy parking a block away in the free structure on Lemon Street. read more

Came here on the way to LA from SD and thought it would be a cute brunch place with the family. Staff was overall friendly and the menu had many vegetarian options. They do have a kid menu and high chairs. I thought the food was tasty and for ambiance prices are fair. There was either no wait or a short wait on a Sunday morning. I also saw patrons studying or doing work solo like a cafe. We tried their green goddess salad which was very tasty and light. Their mushroom truffle grilled cheese was delicious as well and came with chips. The kids tried a fairy toast which was a cute idea- buttered toast with sprinkles. They also have protein smoothies, coffee, and tea. The smoothie we tried was good as well and I did not taste the protein. They have outdoor seating. read more

Came here with a group of 9 and they put us at the big table in the back. Aesthetic is really cute and the servers were attentive. My main reason for giving it 2 stars is because our entire table got their dishes except for 1. After asking two different servers, we were never really given an answer as to where her dish was. Finally someone came by saying it's coming ... yet it took another 5 minutes (by this time, almost everyone was done). The server just handed us the last dish with no apology and simply walked away. I would have expected that dish to be comped for coming out almost 20 minutes later than everyone else's but it wasn't. She took off someone else's drink on our bill instead? Didn't make much sense. Lastly, the pancakes were so sooo dry. read more

Food - Get the B.L.A.T.E sandwich! You can skip the lemon ricotta pancakes that everyone seems to rave about? We ordered them to try since the were mentioned so much every time we heard about Bluestone but they weren't anything special. They were good but there was too much ricotta and hardly any lemon IMO. The sandwich though, 5 stars! My husband and I couldn't decide between the sandwich and the burrito so we got both to split and while both were good, the sandwich was the star of the day. The little fries on the side were also delicious Coffee - meh. We both got vanilla lattes, I don't love overly sweet coffee but this one didn't taste like it didn't have any syrup in it. I would come back for the food but not the coffee. Ambiance - cute, clean and bright. Can't beat cute little old town to walk around when you're done either. Service - My husband and I came in for breakfast before the Valentine's Day rush states everywhere, I think we showed up shortly after 9 and were seated right away and our orders came out in a fair amount of time Price - for our 2 lattes and basically 3 dishes, it was $82 I think? With tip? Pricey for breakfast IMO but it is what it is. The prices are probably about the same at any other spot in eye sight too. read more

Cute Aussie inspired brunch place in Old Town Orange. Pretty busy on a Saturday morning. It was understaffed so service was a bit lacking. But the food was good, as was the coffee.

We finally checked out Bluestone Lane in Orange and honestly left feeling pretty underwhelmed, so we are giving it 3 stars. We had the avocado smash and one of the grain bowls, but both were very mediocre and just lacked any real flavor for the price. We also felt like the service was pretty much absent the entire time we were there, which made the experience even more frustrating. To top it off, the whole place was kind of dirty, from the tables to the floors, which isn't really what you want when you are trying to enjoy a meal. The one saving grace is the outside patio area. It is a really nice spot to sit on a clear day and we love that it is doggie friendly so our four legged family members can join us. There is also plenty of metered parking nearby which makes getting there easy. While the patio vibe is great, the lack of cleanliness and subpar food mean we probably will not be back. read more

The food took very long but I guess it was a little busy. The water pitcher was a little dirty and it took a long time to get out food. The portions were very small as well. When we asked for an extra plate they would take a long time and when we needed a refill it took a long time. Overall would not go again. read more

First time trying Bluestone for lunch! Really cute decor/spacious seating area. The servers we had were great, very attentive. I had the Warm Chicken & Ancient Grains Bowl and it was super filling. Our table also ordered some wedges to share and those were CRISPY, if you appreciate good potato with a crunch, you'll love the wedges. Their Spring Trellis tea was also super refreshing. Very floral and not sweet. Love the vibes and will definitely be coming again to try some of their breakfast options next time! read more

Bluestone Lane has easily become my favorite study spot!! The atmosphere is perfect---calm, welcoming, and just the right balance of lively without being distracting. It's the kind of place where you can actually focus and enjoy being there for a few hours. The food is consistently delicious, and the drinks are just as good. What really sets this location apart, though, is the staff. Julie, Abby, Maddy, Maggie, and Emma are all amazing--genuinely some of the friendliest, most welcoming servers I've come across. They go out of their way to make you feel comfortable and taken care of, and it really shows. Overall, I love this place. Great food, great drinks, and even better people. Highly recommend if you're looking for a go-to study spot or just a really enjoyable café experience. read more

Bluestone Lane - Old Towne Orange - Best baristas ever!! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Orange, California

We planned on having brunch here yesterday after visiting Thompson Building Materials' design center in Orange as I had bookmarked this place for a while now. Finding parking in Old Town Orange on the weekends can be gnarly so I stood in line while my hubs looked for street parking. They don't take reservations and the wait took about 20 mins. Nice decor, light and bright inside. The service was friendly. We ordered coffee and hot chocolate but they were not hot. My hubs ordered the BL Burrito while I opted for the Lemon Ricotta Pancakes. Unfortunately, both items were underwhelming for the price. For the pancakes, I expected the lemon ricotta in the batter, but since the lemon curd was poured on top, only the top cake had a hint of lemon and ricotta. The BL Burrito was just ok. For those who use inKind to pay their tab, you must place your order from the app. You cannot just pay at the end of your meal and enter the receipt # as all other restaurants do. read more

My experience at Bluestone lane was just okay. The interior is decorated very cute and whimsical. The atmosphere is calm and located in the beautiful old town Orange. The food was alright, I enjoyed my avocado toast but it was nothing special. My boyfriend ordered a sandwich that was kind of dry. They forgot to bring the sauce for him, which was supposed to be a creamy relish I think? But the sauce they brought out looked like curdled sour cream with chili. Smelled and tasted very off... They also forgot to add the cheese on my avocado toast (it's pictured since we asked for it afterwards), took 20 mins to take our order even though it was empty, and overall the service seemed rude. The coffee also was just okay, nothing memorable. Wish the service and food was better since it is a very pretty location. read more

"I stopped here really quick because I was looking for a coffee spot along my route. I found this place, checked the menu online, and saw exactly what I wanted. When I got to the counter though, I was told they no longer carried that item. That said, the barista at the counter was super patient and helpful while I picked something else. She recommended the Honey Matcha Latte, and honestly... it was so good it didn't even make it back to the car. Definitely coming back." read more

Glad they worked out the kinks over the years. Love the truffle grilled cheese and tomato soup!

Bluestone Lane is so charming. I love the cafe ambiance here. It's in Old Towne Orange just off the circle. There isn't a ton of parking, so best to park in a lot and walk over. The BLATE (bacon, lettuce, avocado, tomato and egg was HEAVENLY. The brioche bun was soft and the perfect complement for the breakfast sandwich. The potato wedges were decent although I could have done without them. I also had their version of an Americano and I have to say, the best espresso flavor I have had in a long time. Good flavor without being too bitter. The service was good, although I think one server had the entire restaurant and that seemed like too much for one person. She was incredibly nice and helpful. The music was a little loud and didn't quite fit the ambiance, but that may just be a me thing. Overall, will return! read more

My wife and I came here for a last minute breakfast date and were really glad we did. Bluestone Lane Cafe ended up being a great find. The space itself is awesome. Very vibey with great decor and a lot more seating options than we expected. Indoor seating outdoor patio and some quieter tucked-away spots if you want to relax or get some work done. The staff was also super welcoming right when we walked in which always sets the tone. We both ordered the iced blueberry matcha and it was really good. The presentation was beautiful and the flavor was on point. Creamy matcha with just the right amount of blueberry sweetness and not overpowering at all. The only small note would be that it had a bit too much ice so next time I would definitely ask for light ice but overall we were very happy with it. For food I ordered the tomato bisque and it honestly exceeded expectations. Perfect portion size very creamy and the tomato flavor was smooth and not too acidic. Paired with the sourdough it was exactly what I was hoping for and easily a ten out of ten tomato soup for me. I also ordered the BL brekkie. The bacon was thick cut and very crispy which I loved. The poached eggs were cooked perfectly with a nice runny yolk. The only thing I adjusted was removing the mushrooms and some of the arugula as that combo was not quite for me but once I did that it was much better and I still enjoyed the dish overall. My wife ordered the turkey club and loved it. The sandwich was huge and ended up being a take home situation. It also came with a great sized salad. We asked about the vinaigrette and the staff was super kind and brought some out right away. Overall this is a great breakfast and brunch spot with good food great service and a relaxed atmosphere. Being close to the Orange Circle makes it even better while still feeling a little removed from the crowds. Definitely recommend and we will be back. read more

Self seating - the drinks were really good and there is a large variety of coffee beverages to choose from. However, service was pretty slow given that it wasn't very busy. The food was okay, the burrito a bit plain and the pancakes did not have a strong lemon flavor. Overall okay. I would get coffee again, but probably just to go. The inside decor is very cute!

Cute location parking was easy for a weekday clean and airy Ordered the bacon croissant sandwich which was really good and croissant was crispy and fluffy buttery Service was ok Main reason for 2 stars was the plain ol' coffee was not hot comes in cute cup and saucer but only two gulps. More coffee comes in milk jug side. But the glass bottle is not insulated so when refilling my own coffee the refill as cold I asked for more coffee but fresh and hot not in the refill jug new coffee showed up in a bigger cup-where was that initially and that coffee wasn't hot Normally coffee is refilled every two minutes for a breakfast place Fix the coffee! read more

I discovered Bluestone Lane, an Austrailian cafe, in Philadelphia and I loved it so much I literally made it my go-to meeting spot while I was travelling for work. I was so excited to find out that I had a local version in Old Towne Orange, however the experience was not as exciting here. On my first visit they were out of ice cream, which makes it impossible to make the Aussie Latte I like. That day they loss my business to Blk Dot Coffee next door. I decided not to write a review that day to give them another chance, because I REALLY enjoyed my visit in Philly. On my latest visit I came back and there seemed to be chaos again. Staff warned me they were 2 people short, and there could be a 30 minute delay. I'm like even for coffee?? They're like ohh coffee is okay. So I got my Aussie Latte ($6.50/20 oz). Mhmmm not the same. The coffee flavor was not as strong as I remembered and I wonder if it's because they're understaffed and rushed my coffee... but this is already a second chance. I'm not really interested in coming back. Hopefully the location in LA will be better. read more

The service was very fast. They also have QR codes on the table. Our server was very friendly and very helpful with recommendations for us & our kid. Everything that we received was delicious. I really enjoyed the soft scramble avocado dish. The chili oil on top was BOMB! My kid loved the banana toast and the Aussie ice chocolate ( beware it comes with a scoop of ice cream).

Came to Bluestone Lane in the Orange Circle for brunch with friends and had such a great experience! It wasn't too crowded when we arrived, so we got seated right away. Our server was super friendly and welcoming -- she really made the meal even better. We ordered a variety of dishes -- the berry-topped pancakes in the skillet were fresh and fluffy with just the right amount of sweetness, the avocado toast with eggs had great flavor and a nice kick from the seasoning, and the grilled cheese sandwich (served with chips) was perfectly toasted and melty inside. Everything came out quickly and was beautifully presented. The cozy, relaxed vibe plus great service made this a spot I'd definitely come back to for a casual brunch in the area. read more

Mediocre food with terrible service. First of all, the service is very confusing and slow. They walk you to your table and give you menus but don't inform you that you need to scan the barcode on the table to order. We didn't know and waited for a good 30 minutes for someone to come take our order. We finally noticed the barcode and placed our order, then our waiter came over and said she can take our order. Then there was confusion as to which table ordered what. Waiters kept coming to our table with plates of food to ask if we ordered them. The food was very average. We got the lemon ricotta pancakes, chicken Mediterranean salad, and the BL burrito. The salad was really tiny and barely had any veggies. It was also drenched in olive oil and felt greasy. The burrito was also tiny and lacked flavor. The only thing I liked about this place was that it has a dog friendly patio read more

This place was delicious and exactly what I've been looking for -- a go-to spot for genuinely healthy food that still tastes amazing. I love having a place where I can eat clean without sacrificing flavor. We split the burrito with my friend and had some of their healthy juices, which were both great. I also got the berry bowl in a mason jar and added feta cheese to it -- such a good move. The combo was surprisingly perfect and super flavorful. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the ambiance is beautiful. The whole space feels warm, inviting, and honestly gives off Greece vibes -- bright, clean, and calming.
