Chipotle chicken wrap
Ice L.

I was in town for meetings everyday for a week. Fresh salads everyday. Avocado toast was yummy!! Latte's were extra hot! Santa Fe Turkey melt was my favorite. Chipotle chicken wrap always freshly made. Staff were extremely friendly. Bacon cheeseburger was yummy. Daily specials you cannot go wrong everything made to order. Delicious .

I work next door so this is my go-to for coffee and meals. Sign up and you'll receive weekly coupons. Easy to call in, place your order. Food is always ready on time.

It's raining and I didn't want to venture far. I came here around noon and there wasn't a line yet. I looked at the menu, but I decided to get the cheeseburger combination. The meat patty was okay and there was an option for salad instead of chips. I ate the meat patty and a big portion of green salad. They don't offer unsweetened ice tea so I stuck to water. The service here is quick. You don't have to wait long before your food is ready. They're super nice here. I will definitely come back in the future.

Mediterranean Plate... lots of yummy hummus with 4 pieces of pita bread & a salad...
Toni C.

Apparently this place has been around a while... & my work is only about 5 minutes away & I've worked around the corner for 10 years & didn't know this place was there!!! So... Food 5 stars~~I ordered a tuna melt & a Mediterranean Plate... both were really good... I got there & placed my order & it was done super quick!! I was there around 1 so I'm sure the timing of how quick they get an order out will be impacted the closer it gets to "lunch"... Staff 5 stars~~the people that worked there were all super nice... Parking 5 stars~~There was plenty of parking but you have to get a ticket when you enter the parking lot but you get 15 minutes for free but Cafe 201 will validate... I was actually in & out in under 15 minutes!! I will definitely be back!

Fish tacos from their daily special.
Andy H.

I love this place. It is my go-to when I don't bring lunch to work. They have a wide variety of menu options, ranging from breakfast meals, speciality coffees, sandwiches, salads, wraps, to off the grill options. They also offer daily specials that change every 2 weeks. The staff and the owners are so friendly here and always offer quick service for people on the go.

Chicken kabobs, pilaf rice, and fresh garden salad
NGA N.

I love everything they serve here, the sandwiches, breakfast pacific scramble, to their lunch special is bomb! We cater lunch to our office everyday from them. Excellent service and the food is always fresh made!!!

BURNT pita that you can't bite into and look how much humus they gave (which isn't a bad thing) but make sure the pita is at least eatable.
Katelyn C.

I rarely leave Yelp reviews, let alone bad ones. However, I'm pretty upset about this one. I ordered Cafe 201 via Postmates. I received my Tuna Sandwich and Humus/Pita bread. #1. My sandwich, they loaded the bread with so much mayo that by the time my food arrived (8 minutes away from my work) it was completely soggy. #2. They gave me a decent sized CUP of humus (which isn't bad and it's pretty good). But the pita bread #SMH ...... 4 BURNT pieces that you couldn't even bite into. Compared to how much humus they give, you would think they'd at least give enough pita OR make sure it was at least eatable. I don't think I will be ordering from this place again. Truly disappointing and a waste of money.

Tostada Salad on Thursdays! One of my favs! Can't go wrong at this cafe!
Geneva P.

Great food, pleasant staff, and consistent quality every time! Conveniently located, and walk there for breakfast and/or lunch!

I liked the industrial vibe of the interior, with a ton of open seating available. The place felt very "no frills", which I didn't mind. Staff was quick and got down to business with serving drinks, which I didn't mind either. I tried a blueberry matcha latte and a blue lavender latte and both were delicious and well made. I also tried their cinnamon roll which was solid too. Overall, this spot is a great coffee option if you're in the area. I definitely will be back whenever I need a drink while I charge my car.

Instead of sleeping through the night, they bleated at the moon until it set. Chewing some of the cherries himself, the goater found himself quite energetic. He brought the fruits to a monastery. The monks thought the fruit was from the devil and cast them into a fire. The aroma of roasted coffee cherries intoxicated the monks and they steeped the now brown cherries in Holy Water. This is the story of the Moon Goats. Now what is more satisfying than a delicious pour over? Combine that with an authentic southern biscuit and you've bought yourself a quick entry into nirvana. Very nice ambiance in Moongoat. You can purchase any of the plants in the shop. I even saw a family with children carrying books to read whilst they relaxed and had their coffee and pastries. How nice to see children not using a phone to keep themselves disengaged from their parents. That's the kind of crowd the comes to Moongoat. I like the tables that are reserved for people that are actually dining, not just using the store as an office to conduct business.

Beautiful space inside, perfect for breakfast or just a spot to sit down and study or work! I have to say the matcha and hojicha lattes were a bit disappointing. It was pretty watered down and lacked flavor altogether. The turkey sandwich and lox bagel were both decent. Maybe next time I'll try their coffee instead, and hopefully it's better.

I've seen this place on IG some time ago and was interested in checking it out anyway. Really like the motorcycle and vintage typewriter theme in a mechanics garage turned into a coffee shop. This place reminds me of Carbon Canyon Coffee (for the motorcycle theme) and Blue Flame Coffee (for the garage). Drinks look quite unique as well. I wanted to try its Caramel Banana Latte but wanted something light and refreshing after a heavy meal, so opted for Yuzu Tonic (with espresso) and Peach Ring Tonic with cold foam (seasonal special). Both drinks were excellent, but I think the price is high and portion is small compared to other places. I wouldn't complain too much about the price if these were served in a 16 oz. cup like most places but these were served in 12 oz. cups. Still giving five stars because service was welcoming and friendly. Barista greeted us when we entered and when we left.

However, I came on a Thursday morning and parking was tough! Lots of cars in the small lot waiting for service. I nearly gave up but right when I was about to drive away, the first designated parking space for Gremlin Garage became available so I got parking luckily. It's such a cool space and vibe inside, and the barista was so nice. I ended up getting two drinks off their spring specials, the Kyoto Fog with vanilla instead of lavender, and the Puff Puff Pass. Both were great, but I prefer the Kyoto Fog more for the tea taste. The Puff Puff Pass was refreshing with notes of pandan and coconut water. I definitely finished my drink fast and noticed more ice than I'd have liked. Overall, cool idea for a coffee shop and good drinks!

L&L is located in a huge industrial complex with tons of parking (not sure how it is during weekdays though when the other businesses are open). The coffee shop is HUGE with plenty of seating and from the looks of it- lots of regulars hanging out and enjoying their sip. Walk in and fall in line to select your coffee of choice. You can scan their QR code of items - just wish prices were posted too. L&L roasts their beans and after just one sip, you can taste the difference! I had a vanilla latte while hubby had their toffee latte. As it turns out they make their own toffee syrup which is amazing!!! They also have a great selection of foods- burritos, avo toast, quiche, a variety of bagels and a nice assortment of scones, muffins and croissants. We shared a chorizo burrito filled with potato, egg, cheese, chorizo then toasted. It came with 2 different sauces - and cool and creamy cilantro and a smokey mocajete. This too was delicious and we were so glad to have ordered this. Staff were super friendly, welcoming and very helpful. All good vibes here! Look forward to returning!!!

I love love love their matcha and actually get my at-home espresso beans here. They are perfectly roasted and the espresso comes out smooth. I also have had their avocado toast. It is so good but I never finish it haha because it is big. Totally worth to try. They have large tables which are perfect to host coworking sessions or just to come and work. I think I've only had like a small instance where the internet got a little slow but other than that this is a pleasant spot to visit. You can also rent a study/conference room from the church. I sent a message before because I needed a spot to do my final oral exam virtually. There is a small fee but unfortunately no one got back to me. There is a QR code that takes you to a site where you fill out a form to request the space. Now, these requests are handled specifically by the church not the coffee spot. Although it is in the same area. The staff is super friendly. The restrooms are always clean. Handicap friendly. Not necessarily kid friendly because a lot of people come here to study and work, and its also all concrete and hazards for the small ones, but I have seen people do like babies on strollers type of gathering.

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!

If you do visit, I recommend opting for their strawberry matcha, lavender matcha, or any specialty drink other than a basic latte to add some flavor. The syrups are what makes the drinks tasteful while the matcha or coffee base are lacking. Overall, nook coffee isn't the worst but it's also not a place you should go out of your way for.

The lattes were excellent too--everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and definitely worth the visit. That said, we came on a Sunday in the late morning, and it was very busy. We waited in line for quite a while before ordering, and since seating is limited, we also had to wait for a table to open up and quickly grab it when one became available. Parking is limited as well, and street parking can be hard to find during peak times. One thing that could make the experience even better would be having separate lines for to-go orders and dine-in guests, especially on busy weekends.

There is a parking lot, but it is tiny and seems like it's always full. Plan on street parking in the vicinity. They are busy (long line out the door) and there are limited seating. You wait in line to order first and the area leading to the counter is tight so people do a u-turn to get back out the way they went in. It was also very muggy this afternoon and they only had a fan running inside so I was sweating so much. It was not a pleasant experience. There's a small bar area to the right and a few tables that are oddly placed behind the nook of the doors. It's got a cute country meets beach city vibe and the decorations inside reflect that. There is more seating outside, but like I said, it's kind of limited. We luckily got a table after about 4-5 minutes, but we were kind of standing near the trash can for a bit trying to figure out what to do. It's a very tiny space/lot and with how popular it is, it's too cramped for me. With all the cyclospora stuff going on, I'm very hesitant to eat out lately and if I do, I stick to all the fried foods. I ended up getting their popular Hawaiian Cowboy Latte (iced) which was good, but the walnut milk was unexpectedly thick/decadent. I normally drink my coffee black or I do cold brew, but it has honey too so it was sweeter. I think it was too much milk for my liking. If I went back, I'd prob try their affogato. That sounded good too. I also ordered the campfire french toast. It was good. In hindsight, the coffee plus the sweet french toast was too much sweet in one sitting. It was still good and I finished it. My other coworkers got an avocado toast and the trojan horse bowl. Those looked good too and they enjoyed it. Overall, it was good and the ambience is nice, but it's overpriced for what it was. The parking and lack of seating is definitely a turn off for me. If there was more room it would be cool, but the layout was not what I had anticipated. It looked bigger in the photos other people had posted. The staff is friendly so that was nice. I'm glad I went and tried it out though.
