The coffee is acceptable and reasonably priced, but the overall experience falls short. Parking is difficult, the space is extremely loud due to constant machine noise, and the atmosphere doesn't feel very welcoming (gen z seem to have terrible customer service). If you're looking for a calm or comfortable place to enjoy your coffee, this may not be the best option. read more

I've been coming to this cafe since they opened. They recently added new drinks - the Matcha creme was really great!! Both their drinks/coffee & food are the best in Fullerton! It's kinda sad cuz it's hidden from eggspresso. their food is way better than eggs..! read more

Coffee Up Roastery - The Matcha Creme - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Fullerton, California

I've been wanting to try Coffee Up Roastery for quite a while since they are extremely close from home and the great reviews. I remember driving past this coffee shop a few months ago because I was too lazy to find parking on a busy afternoon. I finally made it last week right when they had opened at 8 AM and was able to snag one of the many 15 minute spots available right outside. Here's what I ordered: **Iced Americano: It was a perfect Americano, no complaints. (5/5) **The Biscoff: Got this with oat milk which wasn't an additional charge. I've had a few biscoff lattes from other places and this place definitely takes first place. You can actually taste the biscoff. The balance of flavor is perfect and you can definitely tell that the espresso beans they use are of high quality. (5/5) Service was pleasant and my drinks came out pretty quickly. I would love to return to try more of their drink menu and food offerings as well. This is a great coffee spot in the Fullerton area! read more

I hate to say this but the coffee is a lot better than it used to be. Whole bean roast I mean taste. No attitude always pleasant. Go here for the coffee and get it to go I have never actually drank my coffee there but it is a relaxing business environment. read more

Idk what's up with the service at this place. The young lady that took my order was rude. I'm not the type to cause an issue, so I took my coffee and left. It bothered me so I figured I'd just leave a yelp review. Literally another lady complained today as well about this same barista. Idk if the barista woke up on the wrong side of the bed or what. Not coming back. Which sucks, cause the coffee was pretty good. read more

Been here only 2 times but the vibe is great! Relaxing and everyone is super nice! The coffee is fantastic and they are really fast! Definitely stop by when here! read more

As an avid cold brew fan, I'm confident the drink I got here wasn't made properly. It tasted like regular brewed coffee-bitter, acidic, and nowhere near smooth. I rushed back to my car because the only free spot was a 10-minute parking space, and once I drove off, I realized they hadn't even added the macadamia nut creme cold foam I paid for. I couldn't go back since there was no parking anywhere around this medical building. On top of that, the staff didn't help the experience-the young lady at the counter had a clear "I don't want to be here" attitude, which was not inviting at all. Overall, I do not recommend this place. read more

Very nice, clean and quiet spot. I really enjoyed the black sesame latte but wish they did not put nuts in it. It was either peanuts or almond bits, I'm not too sure. The vanilla syrup was a bit too strong. It kinda took over the whole drink. However, I do appreciate the creaminess of the milk and the good coffee aftertaste lingering in my mouth. read more

I was near by Coffee Up Roastery, so I stopped by to try it. The coffee shop is spacious. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. Coffee Up Roastery has warm and cozy vibes. I was happy to see a book shelf full of board games that can keep you entertained while you are enjoying your delicious drink (I love board games) The savory menu includes sandwiches, and salads. The coffe shop also has a wide selection of refreshing drinks. To mention a few, seasonal drinks, classic coffee, creme Up variety of drinks, Matcha drinks, interesting and delicious world inspired drinks, decaffeinated coffee. In addition to fresh goodies from their bakery menu. I ordered the following; -The Mayan Spiced Mocha 5/5  espresso mixed with ground chocolate laced with fragrant spices such as cocoa liquor, real vanilla, almond and cinnamon I am in love with this drink. It has perfect balance of coffee and chocolate with silky texture. - The Biscoff 4.5/5 is a short vanilla latte made creamy with melted biscoff butter and topped with vanilla creme, cookie crumbles, and caramel drizzle, topped with a biscoff biscuit. The drink was refreshing and rich. -Hot The creme Brulatte 5/5 Espresso mixed with vanilla custard torched for a layer of sweet, caramelized crunch. One of my favorite drink! I loved the pleasant aroma, the perfect sweetness and the rich flavor. - strawberry Matcha Latte 3.5 /5 It was not my favorite. It was just okay, but It needed some balance between the matcha and the strawberry. The barista was very welcoming and friendly. The service was top notch. It is a great coffee shop to visit, enjoy your drinks and receive a top notch service. read more

The girl with wearing all black and had face piercings was rude. waited 30 mins for 3 drinks. she was taking her time making them while flirting with the other male Barista making drinks. are food came out faster then the drinks. The food was good but not worth the high prices. Inside the shop it not the cleanest. need to do way better. overall not coming back. I don't see this place staying open for long read more

Quick service, but no thank you. Not a single word said to me by either employee. I'll walk a few feet more to their competitor next time.

In addition to my previous review, I enjoy the Mayan spiced mocha (25% sweet is good for me) and the Creme Brulette! Both are great hot options. There are plenty of other drinks I'd love to try but they're only made cold, and in these winter months I prefer hot! Service is always great as usual. I bring my dogs here and they love sitting outside. Everyone's always nice and welcoming. It's a peaceful environment inside and out as well. read more

Cute tiny coffee shop with delicious bites to eat. The staff are always so friendly. It's very quiet and you can study there, do work or just meet up with a friend. Their avocado toast is so yummy! read more

Cute little store and with lots of seating and open space! Came here with friends who wanted a coffee but I was in the mood for a fruity drink. The yuzu mojito caught my eye and it was what I expected but I couldn't taste much mint. The drink was fizzy and had a good tart citrus flavor. It was a perfect amount of sweetness. read more

I really really love the coffee here Especially the Hawaiian. Why I'm rating it a 3 is because of the service. I'm not sure if the owner schedules the 2 staff members to start right when they open or the staff just doesn't prep the beans until they open? Either way this is the 2nd time in a row I've shown up at 8:30 (open at 8 on Sun) where I'm told it will take 10-15 mins because they are still prepping the espresso beans. If the owner or manager is reading, please address this oversight. Had to skip and go to another place that had the coffee ready to order. read more

Oh, this might need to be a new go-to spot for me. Kept hearing great things about this place on the Fullerton Loves Food Facebook group so I decided to stop by before my class. I ordered online and got a breakfast sandwich w/ spicy mayo and added avocado. I also got an iced matcha latte w/ almond milk and sugar-free vanilla syrup. First of all...this place doesn't charge extra for milk substitutions? WHAT IS THIS SORCERY?? Fellow lactose intolerance folks, rejoice! The only downfall is the parking. I drove around for a bit before having to park in the parking structure. Parking is free the first 30 minutes but you have to pay after, which sucks because I would definitely come here to hang out and study (maybe one day when the parking isn't too bad? It's located in a plaza surrounded by surgical and medical places, which explains the parking issue). Walked inside and it was SO cute. It was simple yet homey. I saw a bookshelf full of board games! The ladies in front of me were raving about this place so that told me all I needed to know, haha. I grabbed my online order and appreciated that the worker helping me put the ice and milk in it once I arrived. No melted ice in my drink! P.S., they use ceremonial matcha...as soon as I saw the color of the matcha, I knew it was gonna be good. Also the sandwich?? I couldn't even take a photo of it because I DEVOURED it. They made something so simple so good??? Overall, this is a great spot. I will be returning and hopefully find parking quicker. read more

Visiting a cousin in SoCal, I was craving some Vietnamese coffee and stumbled across Coffee Up's Yelp page. We gathered in the car and drove on over. It's nestled between a few medical offices and a hospital. Feel free to park in the structure. This places validates. They had so many great sounding sammies and drinks. I settled on the Avo toast and Vietnamese coffee and my cousin had an iced chai latte and tuna croix. The Avo toast was amazing. Thick sliced bread that was lightly toasted on the outside and tender on the inside. A generous amount of seasoned avocado mash, cherry tomatoes, balsamic vinegar drizzled over red leaf lettuce. Absolutely delicious! If you want more protein, there's also the option of getting egg or bacon on top. The Vietnamese coffee was also legit. It had that punch of robusta beans flavored with condensed milk goodness. I also asked for oat milk instead of regular milk and everything over ice. The regular size was more than enough to fuel me for the day. My cousin enjoyed her tuna croix and said the chai was a bit milder than she likes...but she usually likes it with a bit of a bite. Lolz. I'm even thinking about going tomorrow for breakfast. That's how yummy it was. read more

#123 in my Coffeeshop Chronicles! Coffee Up Roastery is a hidden gem, with its creative drinks, friendly service, and ample seating. I didn't care for the Spanish latte, which wasn't as rich and creamy as a Spanish latte should be. BUT, and it's a big one, the Pink Panther was good, and aesthetically beautiful to boot. I adored the pink foam and white chocolate beads they embellished the vanilla latte with. And I love how it's one of their "cups for a cause," where the proceeds of each purchase are donated to cancer research. So getting my caffeine fix while also supporting a worthy cause - how can I say no to that? ****************** My Ratings: 1 Star: Terrible; just thinking about it makes me angry. 2 Stars: Wasn't a fan so Not likely to return. 3 Stars: Meh. Average. Might return if others drag me. 4 Stars: Yum! Likely to return. 5 Stars: Amazing! Would plan my day around it. read more

First time here. Their blue lavender latte is super delicious. I like the blue cream on top. And it definitely tastes like lavender. I tried their tuna croissant and was surprised at how good it was. The tuna didn't taste fishy like other places where I've had it. They also give you a free pour over coffee bag for checking in on Yelp. :) The shop is big and clean, plenty of space to come work or study. Clean bathroom, which is always a plus. Definitely recommend. read more

Food was pretty fairly priced, I feel like any other cafe would be charging double what they are. I ordered the turkey avocado sandwich and it came with some chips, my friends ordered the same thing, some of them were lightly toasted while others were panini pressed, I don't know why they were different or if we just had to ask for it. Lots of seating which I really enjoyed and a nice selection of board games. The only bad thing about this place is the parking because of all the things around this cafe, there is limited parking and a lot of it is reserved. read more

A fun place to meet up, great hibiscus tea, too. Nice people and service. You can get in and out, sit outside too.

I tried the Vietnamese coffee here and it was not good. It did not taste like Vietnamese coffee at all. They're definitely using the wrong beans for it. Should use robusta beans and condensed milk but it just tasted like your normal coffee or latte mixed with regular milk. Would definitely not get again. Service was fine and there's seating and games available. read more

This is a cute little coffee shop that I just stumbled upon it's really cute I love the white furniture. I love the games that they have available for game night. Everything looks fresh. The variety of different brews of coffee and a lot of danishes and pastries not the regular Starbucks ones that were used to. Customer service was good quick I was greeted and it's clean clean clean. Jeremy and family provided us with great customer service Happy camper read more

Such a cute café spot! I was looking for a nice, small cafe that offered a somewhat more extensive menu than just your typical pastries and bread. Don't be fooled - Coffee Up is the perfect place for an afternoon lunch or date spot! I came with my boyfriend on a Saturday around 1-2pm. The parking can be a little difficult considering this cafe is located around a medical offices and most of the spots are limited specifically for them. I think the cafe actually offers validation for the parking lot across the street but only for an hour. If you don't mind walk a little, you can find ample street parking - just be sure to read the signs! Some of them are also limited to medical offices and might be more strict, especially on weekdays. Owners were super nice and welcoming. We ordered the Biscoff and the Lavender latte. I thought the Biscoff latte would be sweet but I'm so glad it wasn't so don't be afraid to order it, especially if you don't like sweet coffee! The lavender latte had the perfect amount of lavender and they even sprinkled on lavender leaves. We also ordered a Chicken Caesar Salad and a Spicy Chicken Avocado Sandwich - so bomb! We were also surprised that the portions were quite large and very much enjoyed our lunch here. They didn't skimp out on any of the chicken or avocado. Most of the folks that were there that day were there to study - I noticed they had ample outlets all around the cafe so definitely a great spot to study if you're looking for a place. Additonally, it's also a great place to come and just hang out - they have a shelf in the back with a good variety of board and card games. read more

Horrible egg sandwhich. The bread wasn't even toasted. Thats what you call LAZY. I even ordered oatmeal. And they put the dry oatmeal in the pick up section. Hello! do you think I want to eat dry oatmeal? This place could be good, but your laziness ruined my experience and won't be coming back. I even tipped. Wish I didn't. That was not with a tip! read more

Give me for a quick cup of coffee and they are super nice and accommodating and answered all my questions. Everything looks amazing too. Can't wait to come back more often! read more

First time coming here, affordable prices on food and drinks. Super cute inside. I'm definitely coming back. Staff was absolutely nice

Got my blood drawn next door and on my way in, I saw this coffee spot. Even though I made myself coffee (and it was sitting in my car waiting for me), I wanted to treat myself, so I did. When I walked in, I was greeted right away. There was no line but I didn't walk too far in and only saw the kiosk at first, so I ordered there. The kiosk was very easy/user friendly although I did make a poor choice when it came to hot/iced for cold creme on top. I selected "hot" as an option and it typically comes iced. Thankfully the person who was making my coffee wanted to check with me, and it clicked "duh" as I've only ever had cold cream (foam) in an iced drink. Anyway, I very much appreciated that. My order was for a latte with oatmilk, vanilla crème top, and cinnamon brown sugar syrup and a chocolate croissant- which she also asked if I wanted that heated. Everything was tasty and came out quick, especially considering she was alone and had a few other orders. Overall my experience was great. Coffee was excellent. The shop was quiet and not crazy busy. The person handling the orders was attentive and efficient. I felt like a human and not an order especially because I ordered via the kiosk. I told my husband about this place and now he wants to try it so we'll be back :) read more

I've been here twice and service was awful both times. It looks like there are other recent reviews about the same employee. Both times, she made me feel like I'm causing her an inconvenience for being there. Zero friendly hello's or smiles, just RBF and annoyance were responses I got. I went back again today despite unpleasant visit last time because I at least enjoyed the coffee. However, after today, I don't think I'll ever come back. Why should I support a business that makes me feel so unwelcome? read more

This place is a gem! The food and drinks is high quality and delicious. I'm a coffee lover and this is on par with other craft coffee cafes. THE PRICE is the BEST around especially for the quality for both food and drinks. Not sure how the owners are profiting when they're servicing such great stuff and I truly appreciate them. Wishing them all the best and will visit them as often as possible. read more

Coffee Up Roastery - Great food and drinks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Fullerton, California

Located in a small plaza surrounding a bunch of medical offices (Providence is right across the street), Coffee Up offers delicious sandwiches, salads and coffees. Parking can be quite difficult to find, especially on a weekday. Coffee: We ordered the Biscoff and the Blue Lavender. My gf and I were thinking they were gonna be super sweet but they were just perfect. Not sweet at all. The worker also recommended these drinks since we didn't want anything overly sweet. We preferred the Blue Lavender and love that it contributes to cancer research. Food: Chicken Caesar Salad - really sizable and delicious. Spicy Chicken Avocado Sandwich - this was surprisingly a hit! Flavorful and packed with lots of chicken. This is a great spot to study. Clean and bright. They also play acoustic music. Also another random thing, I think they sell cup noodles and ramen! read more

I previously wrote a review for Coffee Up Roastery after receiving my DoorDash order with ice in my coffee, even though I specifically called the store and requested no ice. The owner reached out, apologized, and kindly gave me a small gift card to encourage me to come back. I'm so glad I did! This time, I tried the Hazelnut coffee, and let me tell you, it is hands down the best coffee I've had in my life. I honestly can't stop thinking about it. I also decided to try the walnut salad, and OMFG--it was amazing. It's now 10 PM, and I'm already craving it again. I have to say, Coffee Up Roastery has won me over. Their customer service is outstanding, and the quality of their food and drinks speaks for itself. I'm officially a regular now, and I can't wait to come back for more! read more

I love the vibes in here. It's nice and ACed and well spaced so you're not elbow to elbow with anyone. I think that it's also good that there's cheaper options for food here compared to $14 avocado toasts in other shops in OC. The service is fast and you can find seats even during lunch time easily. My latte was coconut flavored and it tasted like Hawaii in a cup :) My mom got a black sesame cream on top of her iced latte and it was a perfect creaminess and texture. My brother got a mango smoothie that was a strong mango flavor and tastes fresh. The salad we ordered was a kale and avocado salad with chicken added and it was a good salad that has a creamy dressing. It is garlicky and has chopped carrots in it. It has a slight sesame taste too which was very good. However, the kale pieces were huge so every bite you had to open your mouth super wide. read more

came in a week ago had almond croissant and a pour over both were delicious. however I asked for iced and their machine was not able to do it she wanted to make the pour over in the machine and pour over ice which is fine as long as you make the coffee stronger. came in again this week they asked us to use the kiosk then they said it did bot work and sometimes it foes not work. asked for a pour over and the machine was not working and seems like they could not do this manually and this time the almond croissant tasted a little stale. also cappuccino was very foamy. I did buy some of their ethiopian and I love it. read more

I like the beans from this coffee shop and it's great that if you bring back the container you get 20% off. My complaint about this shop is the service. The young lady at the counter was rude, as if we were inconveniencing her by even being there. There was a group of mid/older people in front of me, about 5 of them, and the way she gave them attitude was disrespectful. The group was really nice and everyone in that cafe could just feel the vibe. But anyways, the reason I'm even leaving this review is that someone left a bad review 6 months ago that included a picture of the girl, complaining about the service. And a lot of the reviews complaining about the service describes a young lady. So clearly, the owners don't care about their employees performance or she is family and are willing to look over it. Customer service will make or break your business. Sorry, I didn't wake up on a Saturday on my day off to buy coffee and a side of attitude. EDIT: oh and I just realized the cup says "made with love", I audibly laughed. Sure. read more
