OMG, closest to the office and just dropped in for a coffee to go, tried the lavender/honey with pistachio milk! Sooo fabulous! I will be back!!! read more

Cute place I absolutely loved the vibe here, great spot to come chill and have a great breakfast sandwich with coffee or you can work on your laptop. Plenty of seating very spacious and clean. Everyone here was very nice and friendly and had great recommendations, I tried the cortado which was perfect for me and their bacon breakfast sandwich omg so good! My sister had the avocado toast and a pistachio latte she was very impressed. My niece had the chorizo breakfast sandwich also very good. We ended up buying some pistachio milk to take home and I bought myself a cool souvenir shirt! read more

The coffee here is smooth. In the AM, I enjoy my beautifully designed Flat White Latte. When I come in the PM, I usually get the Dopio which they provide with a cup of soda. The icing on the cake is the large space which usually guarantees a spot I can work at. This makes my drive worthwhile. Customers are usually studying or doing work so it's productive for me and assuming so for others. The workers are friendly and all the tables are kept clean. You can easily find an outlet for your laptop. My #1 go to spot in the OC read more

THE BEST COFFEE PLACE TO STUDY OR CATCH UP WITH FRIENDS finding this in my undergrad was the best thing I could have found. The coffee and food are such a hit. You can never go wrong with the Spanish latte and the bacon breakfast sandwich. Priced so well and delicious. The WiFi is a little weak, but it's okay it gets the job done. The seating and environment is so unique and so big, I've never seen anything like it. I love this place so much. read more

Great coffee options that haven't let me down yet! We've had a couple breakfast sandwich food options that were tasty but wish they were a bit more organized in terms of telling us what they are. Lots of seating for chats, work, studying, etc. The area around here is a bit lacking in terms of walkability/ambiance but this is a great spot to spend a couple hours. read more

Saturday morning coffee and good breakfast! Came to do some studying and I loved how attentive and friendly the staff was! The avocado toast was really good and the bread really good nice and toasted to perfection! Fred wifi and chill place to lock in for a bit :) read more

Found: New coffee shop to do remote work at! I've been eyeing this spot on Yelp for a bit and finally had time to try it out! The interior of this place is super beautiful and unique. Very open space with tons of tables available to sitting + chatting, working, or just hanging out. They have free WiFi that works pretty well and some outlets scattered around too! As for food + drink, I was not disappointed! I got the avocado toast which came with sliced tomatoes and micro greens. It was also seasoned to perfection - sooo yummy! For my drink, I got a hot Spanish latte (influenced some other Yelp reviews), and I am so happy I tried this. Rich but slightly sweet flavor. It's a MUST get for one of your next visits! I'll definitely be back! read more

This place is cute. I am born and raised in Southern California but moved to AZ--we were visiting and looking for a coffee shop. Decided to try this spot. Coffee was good. I tried the nitro cold brew and the BF did the espresso tonic. It was decent. The food though--was delicious. I have the veggie provolone breakfast sandwich and my BF had the chorizo breakfast sandwich. We both were more impressed with the food. We came on a Friday morning and it was packed with a mix of college students and people working from the shop---decent amount of electrical plugs to work from. read more

I ordered a caramel iced latte and a chocolate croissant. I've tried multiple different coffee shops in the area since being here for a week and i will say, this latte is the best I've had thus far - The croissant is just okay. The atmosphere it self was nice and very calm. My only complaint here is - two people behind the counter are not the most customer oriented people. The guy who was making the food was sighing the entire time and the girl who is taking the orders and making the drinks seems put out any time she had to help a customer. Constant rbf the entire time. Maybe they are just having a bad day, idk. But customer service is key when operating a business. read more

I never heard of this cafe until my friend recommended this place. It's somewhat hidden but surprisingly so spacious inside! Plenty of seating & outlets perfect for studying or working. If I lived closer, I'd probably visit more often ~ I added a cream top to my matcha latte but it made the drink a lil too sweet so will opt for without next time. Their matcha was pretty good & refreshing tho :-) TIP: Check in on yelp for a free sticker!! read more

I love the space here and i ordered one of their seasonal drinks which was so toasty like a campfire of s'mores. I can't wait to come back to try even more items. I hear it's busy in the morning. I had arrived around closing time so it was super chill inside. read more

Amazing coffee shop shrouded in wood and brick. This place is very spacious and cozy with enough seating for a big group if need be. The food was delicious with the chorizo sandwich acting as a nice, heavy meal and the almond croissant sweetening it all out. Latte came with no sugar (which is good but ofc my girlfriend had to add lots) and the cortado was good. 5/5 would pass my exam if I kept studying here. read more

I love Golden State Coffee Roasters! I first discovered this place almost five years ago and I come here almost five days a week because I think it's that good. I come for the coffee and leave in a better mood because the staff are always so friendly. They know what I'm getting before I get to the counter and make me feel like a regular. There's plenty of coffee spots closer to me but I make the commute because I know it's gonna be good. I have not been able to find another place with the quality of coffee, taste of coffee, and customer service that beats Golden State. I would recommend this place to everyone and I hope they stay in business forever. I'd like to shout out one employee but they all are awesome. Go check them out and see for yourself read more

I'm a Golden State Coffee stan and to me it is one of my favorite OC coffee shops- especially for the roomy interior, good pricing, quality coffee and baked goods and mostly quiet ambience. In other words, you can actually have a small group conversation or work call here without having to shout over the typical coffee house clamor. Aside from baked goods, I do like their breakfast sandwich offerings esp the garden provolone. Coffee is tasty and not too bitter and priced very well given the scale. Upon my last visit here- glad to report GSCR is still a top choice for coffee and work in the OC. read more

Mediocre coffee but great, spacious rustic atmosphere perfect for studying. + Thin Mint Cold Brew (half sweet): intrigued by this flavor combo! half sweet heavily affected the flavor. Sour, minty chocolate beginning but ended with a nice thin mint flavor (6.5/10) + Garden Provolone Breakfast Sandwich (around $7): egg, micro greens, cherry tomato, provolone, with pesto in an english muffin was yum (7.3/10) read more

Fullerton has some great coffee shops but this one is definitely my favorite. Drinks are always perfect, baristas are super nice and the food options are great as well. We've had the iced latte with almond milk, iced matcha latte, cappuccino and a regular latte - all were perfect during each visit. We also loved their gluten free banana bread and their almond croissant was fabulous. The garden provolone sandwich is a great breakfast option! There is tons of space to sit, ambiance is one of the cutest coffee shops you'll find with beautiful brick interiors and you can actually catch them roasting beans on occasion. The surrounding area outside of this coffee shop was a bit disappointing but I'm glad we decided to come in during our first visit because they do not disappoint. read more

PARKING: They have a few spots along SANTA FE AVE and also tons of spots behind the business which is 2 HOUR PARKING only. SERVICE: The cashier/barista was SO NICE! She let me try their non-dairy PISTACHIO milk, which is the first time I've seen this milk in ANY coffee shop. It was seriously so delicious and such a unique alternative than soy, oat, or almond. Love these small details that set them apart! DRINK: ** they only have one drink size, all their coffees come with a double shot of espresso ** $6.25 SUGAR FREE VANILLA LATTE with pistachio milk: they don't up-charge for non-dairy milk, but they do up-charge for sugar free which I thought was odd. Either way, I'd take that rather than the milk! I loved the pistachio milk, I'll definitely be back. AMBIANCE: This place is HUGE! Definitely a great spot for hanging out and doing work at the coffee shop. There were a ton of professionals working. read more

First time at this coffee shop and it is so cute! The vibe: very chill inside, plenty of seating from couches to tables. Music playing but not blasting, so you're able to have a convo and actually hear the other person. Service: Baristas were friendly and helpful, I think they could tell it was our first time there. After checking in I unlocked a free sticker, so I went back up to the counter and they pick which one I wanted. Coffee: I had my usual lavender oat milk latte and it was delicious. It wasn't overly sweet which I love. I don't like super sweet coffee. Loved this place , I will definitely be back! read more

This coffee shop is great! I love the vibe and layout. The exposed brick gives Golden State a rustic feel and tables are dispersed so many people can be inside without feeling too crammed. There is a glass wall between the customer area and the roasting facilities so you can see them roast coffee beans, was cool to watch. Service is excellent and the baristas are friendly. I really enjoy the drink options. I discovered the Cortadito and have been obsessed with it. The coffee and espresso have good flavor without too much acidity. read more

My go to spot for studying. Lots of tables and outlets! I can usually find parking pretty easily. Their drinks are more on the pricey side but are usually pretty good. My favorite drink (seasonal) is the toasted maple matcha but their other seasonal matcha lattes are pretty good too. My favorite food item is the bacon breakfast sandwich. The sauce is super yummy. I've tried their other sandwiches before but always come back to this one. The baristas are all super sweet and service is good! read more

Never have I felt as discriminated against as I did today at 3:15PM 5/15. I've been here a few times and live locally. I walked into the shop today and there was no line, barely any customers and at least 5 staff members all standing around. Upon walking from the entrance and then up to order, the staff member who was working the register, a white man with a beanie and glasses made direct eye contact with me (a Hispanic woman, and my boyfriend a black man), did not say a single word or give any type of welcome or acknowledgment, carried on with a conversation amongst coworkers, turning back and forth to engage with the other workers while my boyfriend and I stood there waiting to be acknowledged. Horrible customer service. At least 5 workers and not one person can say hello to a customer? I refuse to give business to an establishment who thinks it's acceptable to treat their patrons like garbage and be discriminatory. A simple greeting or basic human decency to acknowledge a customer should be standard practice. I will NOT be returning and cannot encourage others enough NOT TO COME HERE unless you want to be discriminated against as well. read more

I came to check this coffee shop since it was highly recommended by my friend. This place is huge, well-lit and the ambience is very chill. The baristas were very friendly and cheerful. They have their roster area on the left side from the entrance. I ordered their limited flavor Charlie Brown sugar Latte with less sugar. I actually loved and enjoyed my drink and had a great experience. The only thumbs down is their parking. It's horrible. Come check this place out! read more

This is a coffee shop I've been wanting to come to for years and I'm very surprised I haven't already! It's so close to home and didn't realize that. Here's what I ordered: **Matcha Latte (Hot): I had a choice between several sweeteners and opted to go with some honey. Decent drink but was just hoping for a stronger matcha flavor. (4/5) **Thin Mint Cold Brew: I loved this! The cold brew itself had a slight sour note but I really liked the subtle thin mint flavor. If I got this again, I would definitely like to try it out with some milk because it was missing a little something. Overall, great drink inspired from the greatest girl scout cookie of all time! (4/5) From the first barista that took my order all the way to the last, every single person working here was spectacular! I love the insanely large open seating they have available, making it a great spot to study with groups. I came early enough in the morning so parking was spacious. As it is in the heart of Downtown Placentia, I can see the parking situation getting complicated. Overall, really good spot and I will definitely be back to try more of their seasonal drink menu! read more

The architecture of this coffee shop was so beautiful, the cafe was fairly large. I saw a big space to enjoy coffee and there were a lot of patrons on a Sunday morning. There were lots of parking in the surrounding neighborhood. There was an assortment of merchandise and, what looked to be, local art available for purchase. While waiting in line I took a look at the coffee beans available for sale. I ordered a vanilla latte with pistachio milk. I was interested in trying this milk and the cashier graciously gave me a sample to try while I decided on a drink. The coffee was delicious and had a great flavor profile. read more

Very nice place with lots of open space to hang around and enjoy your coffee. Decided to try to place out after a quick lunch but it wasn't my favorite. I still enjoyed this place out and it was modern and bright. The taste of their beans are quality. I had the Thin mint cold brew but didn't know it didn't came with milk so I had to ask for some on the side, once I put that in I enjoyed my drink a lot more! read more

Really cool building! My husband and I went in here to get some coffee and breakfast. I had a mocha oat milk latte and he had a chai. Both were really good! The mocha latte was smooth and flavorful without any bitter or acidic notes. The chorizo breakfast sandwich was DELICIOUS. Soft, well-seasoned - we would come back just for that. Bought some coffee beans too! Smelled really good! Excited to try. read more

I was greeted by Victoria with amazing customer service, despise them being understaffed and busy, she kept a smile on her face and had a great personality.

I will definitely be back here and recommend this place if you're looking for specialty coffee. I loved the staff and espresso :) read more
