They did it again with the mango matcha tonic! On the slightly sweeter side of tonics (which…read moreusually do not run sweet), yet you can taste the matcha well. It was extremely refreshing on a hot day, though I wish there were more! It felt liek therr was more than 3/4 full ice in there. Wowee the matcha cookie with white chocolate chips was pricey at $5.25 for a larger than homemade but flatish cookie, but it did hit the spot. Would I buy it again? Maybe if it were a little more cooked or I was craving a matcha cookie (my preference) with my amazing drink from here. Tip: do participate in their rewards program (enter phone number on the square checkout screen), as you can get a free drink after purchase of 10 (or maybe even fewer?) drinks or snacks. Also I think everyone and their mom went to IHOP, jack in tbe box, or that brunch place around 1015 AM on one of the hottest Aug Sats of my life, cuz parking took a circle around the lot to find! Despite my criticisms, I LOVE this place for drinks and would recommend to specialty- matcha and coffee lovers alike. Worth a drive!

Also the logo here is just sooo cute. I ordered the Einspanner and my friend ordered this Earl Grey latte(?), but of us really liked our drinks! Although, I felt like the einspanner was also really sweet on the top? Normally I would also drink that too, but it was too sweet for me to enjoy lol. We also got an almond croissant to share which it was really nice and soft. Although I wish it was more crispy flaky. Overall, still a pretty good coffee shop to visit in the area! Solid choice. Would likely try another drink instead of the einspanner.

By far Goodfellows has the…read morebest banana latte in the game (seasonal item so get it while it's hot) banana flavor is there, cinnamon notes are there. Chefs kiss! I've had banana latte's from other shops in the area and they just don't stand a chance. You can taste the coffee and the banana, not too milky, so good! (this does not include banana matcha I can't speak for that) Typically, I love a good triple shot of espresso over ice with cold foam on top when I'm in need of a big dose of caffeine--gets the job done. Goodfellows is more on the affordable side I feel like their offerings are fairly priced. Service is always great, space is bigger than most shops in the area. The pastries here are good, love the pretzel croissant, and the occasional jalapeño cheese bagel. Have been wanting to try their turkey sandwich Thanks Goodfellows, see ya soon.

It's nutty, creamy, and quite strong honestly. I'm not usually a mango person, but I really enjoyed their mango matcha latte. I love that all their drinks that have fruit in them use real fruit puree that they make in-house! And don't leave without grabbing one of their pastries! If you love a good soft cookie, definitely get the smores bar or chewy Biscoff mallow cookie. Thanks for reading! ^-^

There isn't much seating in the shop so can get crowded during peak times. Ordered the following: Biscoff Latte Matcha Einspanner Strawberry Matcha Latte Lemon Bar Mallow Cookies I personally really liked both the matcha einspanner and the biscoff latte. You can taste the coffee plus that slightly sweetness from the biscoff. Also loved their pastries, really liked the lemon bar and mallow cookies! Overall, Haru Cafe is such a cute spot when you are in a mood for a variety of drinks plus something sweet. Definitely would love to come by again.

Arc, you continue to blow my mind…read more An iced latte and thrifting is #1 on my weekend task list. Since estate dales pop off in Buena Park this coffee shop has become a repeat on the weekend rotation. I recently tried their banana bread latte for the first time. This is not only banana flavored, but also has light pieces of graham cracker. There's no better way to describe this drink than a visual of my brain blowing - if only Yelp allowed emojis. I've found that a great quality flavored latte can be hard to come by. I like my morning beverages to be heavy on the caffeine - both in dosage and flavor. Arc has done a tremendous job of balancing the two. I've also tried their espresso tonic (insane) and their traditional matcha. Easily a top coffee shop in Orange County!

Atmosphere: 4 Pretty…read morestraight forward. It's clean and quaint, but even looking at pictures to determine if we had been there before left us questioning it. Relatively forgetable, but they put some energy into it. Menu variation: 3.5 They had a couple drinks outside of the standards, but not much. Looks like they do mix it up and do seasonal drinks. Customer Service: 4.t The cashier was pleasant, polite, and patient when asking questions. They were nice enough to split a pulled double shot of espresso between our drinks as well. I'm always appreciative of people who are willing to do that for us. Drink quality: 4.5 I got the honey butter latte with oat milk and an add shot. My husband got the banana bread latte with oat milk and an add shot. Both drinks were really good. I'm not a banana person, so I thought my husband's was in your face with the banana flavor, but he really enjoyed it. But I didn't think mine was overly sweet, and the sweetness was subtle, and it had a nice cream top. Food quality: N/A Price worth it: 5 Stuff is expensive. Since the drinks were good, I didn't mind paying for unique flavors we couldn't recreate at home. Enjoy your own culinary adventure!

They serve a simple yet diverse variety of drinks including the popular double matcha and banana matcha.

From taking my order to getting my drink, service was fast. Plenty of seating and outdoor parking available-- perfect for studying or doing work. I've gone to this location several times for matcha and decided to try one of their fall seasonal specials this time-- a carrot cake latte with cream cheese cream top. I'm so glad that the barista recommended this drink because it was the literal definition of fall. The latte had a great subtle taste of carrot cake with a hint of a spices. I like how the sweetness wasn't too overwhelming with the perfect balance of espresso. I also got the ube cookie with a white chocolate pretzel on top of it-- it had a soft texture and a subtle taste of ube. I've also tried their oreo mallow cookie before and it was good too. Overall, aesthetic and tasty, would recommend!

As someone who has regularly supported Ondo, I'm leaving this review to share a disappointing…read morepattern in customer service and shop policy. During one visit, requesting a simple sprinkle of cinnamon resulted in an unnecessary comment, after asking for cinnamon on my iced latte, Marcy (a shift supervisor) looked at me with annoyance and said "just to let you know it's hydrophobic so it's not going to mix" On another visit, when I tried to order my usual iced Americano with cold foam, Marcy refused, saying "those are just the rules." Even when I asked to simply purchase a side of cream top instead, she refused to sell it to me--which was baffling, considering other staff members have been making this exact drink for me without issue for the past two weeks. After messaging the owner, he explained that the shop restricts drink modifications to speed up service. However, the obvious miscommunication among staff shouldn't fall on the customer. It was extremely uncomfortable to be shut down and given a hard time by Marcy. While every business has the right to set its menu rules, denying basic customizations and refusing to sell a side of cream top feels overly rigid for a local coffee shop. The strict atmosphere makes for a stressful customer experience.

Most of the tables are on the low side, but it still works as a good spot for getting some work done. We were happy they let us use our own tumblers too! Parking is easy in the large plaza parking lot. Overall a great spot to grab a drink, catch up, or get some work done!

I really appreciated the outlets available. I do agree the music is on the louder side. I spent about 5 hours here working on assignments, uninterrupted, it was really lovely. There is plenty of space for parking. I didn't take any photos except for my matcha, the main character! See you again soon!

Being on the corner of a busy intersection doesn't help you feel more comfortable entering or entering this little lot, either. However, upon entry, you'll find a clean, welcoming, and lovely store, full of small tables with little tap lamps on them, nice lighting, and relaxing vibes. I can see this being a popular hanging, studying, or gaming spot! They have some intense pastries on display by the counter! Even my wife's sweet tooth was shy. It would probably be best to share these with a group! We had two drinks from the menu, and we enjoyed the mango matcha. Whatever was on the bottom of the cup was challenging to mix in with the rest of the drink, and it was thick! However, after a few minutes, the drink mellows out and is actually delicious! We do not recommend the apple tea. It tasted like water with a hint of some flavouring. Not worth the cost. Chai Master can be hit or miss, depending on what you order. However, I can see us returning with a group for pastries and card games!
