Everytime that I am in Orange County I always make sure that I have time to come here at least once. I have been coming here for almost two years now and it is hands down the best coffee in Irvine. Their drinks are amazing and the service is always on point. I have never had a bad experience here. Their food is also delicious!! I love their soft egg scramble. I highly recommend. read more

I don't know what they put in the smashed avocado, but I can eat a vat of it if they'd sell it to me. Like, I never thought I'd be a smashed avocado toast-eating millennial, but here I am. Seriously, the smashed avocado toast is bomb. Also, closely followed by the scrambled egg toast. They managed to perfect the soft scramble, but you can get a hard scramble if that's more your jam. The staff is always friendly and the lattes are perfectly made. So happy this place is walking distance from where I work. read more

I visited this place because of the positive reviews, but my experience was disappointing. **Positives:** - Great ambiance **Negatives:** - Unfriendly staff: no greetings or pleasant interactions - Possible bias: I noticed others received much friendlier service, which made me uncomfortable as a minority I don't want to give the business a bad review, but I think it's important for the owners to be aware of these issues for improvement. In a customer-facing business, it's crucial for employees to be welcoming. Unfortunately, today, that wasn't the case. read more

Great coffee, food, and service! Sad this location isn't open on the weekends. This location has a life more outdoor seating compared to the Newport location. read more

Really cute coffee shop! It's a little inconvenient for those of us who don't work right in those office buildings as you have to use the parking garage, but it's not bad and they always validate parking if you ask for it! Their avocado toast is pricey but it's delicious and even though I'm not a huge cold brew person I really liked their cold brew with white chocolate and strawberry back in February. My sister came to visit for a few days and we ended up going twice. I definitely recommend grabbing a friend so you get to split two types of the avocado toast! read more

I wanted to get a cold Matcha Green Tea during my lunch; while I was at work in Irvine. I made a search and notice that this location doesn't have much reviews, so I decided to check it out. It is not located in your normal- "off the street location" and cannot be visable if your driving by on Main Street. It's a nice jem located on the first floor below the Towering Coprorate buildings. View is a stunning Moderen Urban Experience and there are ample areas for you to sit and relax while having a Metropolitan/Executive break or working on your laptop. The staff are Super welcoming and friendly. The cafe is clean, neat with modern artistic design. There is a simple menu with many favorites to choose from. Grab a quick snack or a good meal. Tip: Parking is located around the building in a connected parking structure. Park on the first level, 30 mins, and get your parking validation at the Cafe. read more

Their strawberry matcha is phenomenal, and I've tried a lot of strawberry matcha in the area. Highly recommend this spot over others!

When I tell you these two orders were the best cups of coffee my husband and I have had! Hot Lavender matcha (with add espresso shot) and strawberry alarm clock, just wow. Unfortunately we don't live in town or else we'd be here everyday lol read more

I tried their matcha with cinnoman. It was ok 7/10 solid matcha but nothing special Their ube drink was a surprise. Very delicious And my ultimate favorite was the cilantro bacon fried rice. Really good and filling Overall this place is super cute. Good food. Good atmospheee to hang out or study. The only thing I would request is outlets to plug in my laptop. read more

the worker told us that parking in the structure was free for the first 2 hours. but when we left we had to pay $10. The security guard told us that KIT basically just lied to us because KIT does not have validation with the parking lot. read more

I love the interior! Especially the circular light on the window. Now on to the coffee. I had an oat latte which was great! It was a clean to the point taste without a bunch of sugar, which I enjoyed. My husband got a black tea which he enjoyed. Definitely recommend coming here for good coffee and great ambiance and views. read more

Great coffee and food. The Croffle's at 2pm are AMAZING. The only thing better than the food and coffee is Kira and Britany who make everyone feel like a regular. It's kinda like a modern day "Cheers" for coffee. Go try it! read more

Staff was not so friendly, it's a really cute place drinks are good but I went for the second time and the matcha tasted like milk and not so much like matcha. Asked if they could do the peep mallow as a matcha and the girl said no because the taste would be all over the place?? Which is upsetting if they couldn't make it at all I would've appreciate if they had explained that to me not just say no cause it wouldn't taste good. read more

I love this place so much! They make the best coffee ever and are so nice! I'm obsessed with their breakfast burrito and now that they have fall seasonal drinks I can't stop going, lol. The team is fantastic and they deserve the literal world! read more

A hidden gem in Irvine. Tucked away in the Irvine Business Complex is this great coffee shop. The coffee options are diverse and tasty (personal favorite: Lavender Skies). Food is also great too. The breakfast burrito was a good-sized portion that was toasted well on both sides. It can easily be shared with someone. The inside is modern and clean. There's not as much seating indoors so it does get packed quickly. However, there's plenty of seating outdoors with a beautiful ambiance. Lastly, the owners and workers are also very friendly every time I've been. Everything about this place keeps me coming back! read more

I went in to have some coffee today because I usually really enjoy this place! unfortunately, I was not very satisfied this time because I simply asked for less ice and was told that I would get the same size I usually get. When I got my coffee it was much smaller than usual and was put in a water cup! I asked about it and was told by the person who made it that it's because "I asked for light ice". I am very understanding but I received much less coffee and finished it in two sips. I also tipped like I always do and was not accommodated for my experience. The atmosphere and service is usually amazing but unfortunately I won't be returning here again. :/ read more

I can't say enough good things about KIT! My boyfriend and I got the Horchata Matcha and the dark chocolate mocha the first time we went- amazing. The breakfast burritos though... Bomb!! The location is super clean and has an easy flow so it doesn't get too crazy inside despite the line. Definitely recommend this spot. read more

i was disappointed to say the least about the matcha here. my friend ordered a regular matcha yet she claimed that it tasted like milk. so, she ordered another shot of matcha, but to her surprise it still tasted like straight up milk :( i like the ambiance and the service of this place, but not the matcha. read more

Had the following.... Cortado -- silky smooth milk. Strawberry oatmilk alarm clock. Probably will be a my go to drink whenever I visit. Not too sweet at all and has a hint of strawberry. Horchata Matcha was also good. Didn't have an overpowering horchata or matcha taste. good balance and not crazy sweet either. Saw the menu but decided to get the cinnamon toast to go with my drinks. Great crunch. My daughter loved it. read more

My friend and I came here because we like to explore coffee shops. We usually go to the KIT coffee in Newport but recently discovered the irvine location. I got the strawberry latte with oat milk and it was incredible. The espresso was really flavorful and didn't have that fake tasting strawberry flavor. We also got the creme brûlée toast that was so rich and flavorful, I would 100% come here again :) read more

I found this place on Yelp and was interested to check it out! I needed my matcha fix before moving my stuff. I ordered the Iced Lavender Fields which is matcha with lavender blueberry milk, and WOW I was impressed. I forgot to take a picture before drinking it (so sad since the drink looked really pretty too) but it's one of the best matcha combinations I ever had. Would definitely come back again and try the espresso option :) read more

Beautiful latte art, speedy service, yummy sweet treats our whole group enjoyed. Would return in the future!

Always come here for a matcha, whether it's a blueberry matcha or strawberry matcha. Surrounded by a bunch of company buildings with a gorgeous outdoor seating area with a huge fountain. Very chill vibes and a great place to get some work done. The baristas are very nice as well. read more

KIT Coffee - Left- Peppermint white mocha | Right- Strawberry matcha - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Irvine, California

i got the seasonal boysenberry matcha, matcha flavor was not strong and the boysenberry wasn't either. it was ok but would not repurchase

The coffee here is amazing, especially the Matcha. Plus the food is really good as well. Love coming here before getting my day started.

The parking machines and validation rules are a huge turn off. I went to 2 businesses in the complex and got 2 validation tickets with enough time remaining. Still ended up having to pay $6 to leave. I'm not coming back due to that experience. My friend and I ordered a cappuccino, Lavender Skies, Purple Dream, and cinnamon brulee toast. read more

I came here to try the strawberry matcha that people recommended me, it's actually called thank you berry matcha so I was surprised at first. The matcha is strong and bitter and the strawberry oat milk reminded me of strawberry nesquik but with oat milk flavor. Mixed, the matcha flavor fades out to be not bitter and balances with the strawberry milk. My parents liked it and said it was good, personally I like mine a little stronger on the matcha so I thought it was just ok. But also I feel like my tastebuds get matcha immune in general when I drink matcha maybe cuz then I just taste sweet milk usually. My mom thought it was sweet, I thought it wasn't too sweet. Also the line seemed long and out the door but come to find it was because the line capacity is like 5 people in a row before you hit the door lol. It's a small spot and I like the artwork and interesting chocolate bar flavors, the outdoor area is nice, shady and relaxing read more

Went their after work to grab a matcha for my fiancée and the place is so sweet and helpful. I ordered a matcha with oat milk and strawberries and they informed me on an item on the menu called thank you berry much which is the same thing for less. Also they were very respectful and helpful with dietary needs. They're so helpful and sweet! I didn't catch their names but I went there Friday afternoon! Will definitely be coming back here! read more

A nice little surprise tucked away in Irvine. I love the aesthetic of this cafe and the service was so good. I got the ube drink with a shot of espresso and my friend got the strawberry latte. Both were superb and I would order both again. The drinks are a little pricey imo but worth a try! They have validation so don't worry about parking! read more

KIT Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Irvine, California

Great coffee and service. They are always busy since it's in a office complex but they get drinks out quickly. I've tried most of their coffees and they are all tasty. I recommend the berry lattes. read more

The coffee shop itself is in a beautiful location and has a cute interior. The baristas were friendly and my mocha latte was great. However, the parking attendants for the parking garage made my first time at Kit an experience that makes me not want to come back because of how complicated the parking validation system is and even more so how rude the parking attendants were to me. I got my parking ticket validated at Kit for 2 hours and was there for exactly 2 hours. When I tried to leave the parking garage, I followed the prompts that the parking machine gave me, yet it was not scanning my validation. I could see that other cars at a different exit were getting out just fine, so I called the 'help' button and a young man who spoke to me was extremely condescending, making me feel "dumb" for not being able to get out of the garage when it was really their system's malfunction. I had to put on my hazards and reverse from that exit to try a different exit, as per his suggestion (which he said with a rude tone). I try the other exit and the same thing happens--the machine is not scanning my ticket. I call the 'help' button again, and this time an older woman answers. I explain to her the situation and she asks me where I got my ticket validated. I told her I got it validated at Kit Coffee, and she has the audacity to tell me that she's never heard of Kit Coffee and that it doesn't exist in their system. I told her that I got my parking validated at Kit! She then asks me to hold while she gets her manager. A few minutes later, she hops back on the call and says, "Oh, there actually is a Kit Coffee, so we'll just let you out." That's what I was saying the whole time!!! Kit, please address this issue with your parking system and make sure those parking attendants actually know that a Kit Coffee exists and are actually kind human beings. Thank you. read more

Parking can be a little annoying due to having to park in the structure. I wish there was a large menu on the wall, instead of just 1 menu on a clipboard. Overall, the coffee and the food was good, nothing spectacular. read more

Ordered the Thank you berry matcha and for $7 it was not it. Didn't even tell me that it would be with oat milk which personally I think tastes like cardboard. Really had no matcha flavor either read more

One of my go to for breakfast and coffee. Their mocha latte has the perfect sweetness that is not overwelming. Recommend getting fried rice cilantro- bits of bacon and egg. However seating is quite limited unless you sit outside in the community seatings which can get really cold in the morning. Theres only two table inside but most of time its occupied single customer with a laptop working. read more

Great customer service and good selection of drinks. Very friendly baristas and the place had a nice ambiance. Plenty of outdoor seating and perfect spot for quick bite and refreshing drinks. Loved their iced matcha strawberry drink. Highly recommended read more

Great food and amazing service. I have never had a bad meal or coffee made from Kit. The food is consistently good and flavorful. The service is amazing every single time. Can't beat that!!! read more

I came down to the Irvine location for the first time and love it even more than the Newport location. It's sort of hidden surrounded by corporate buildings but there's lots of seating and shade outside the cafe by fountains so it creates a really nice atmosphere. As for the cafe itself, the service was really friendly and helpful and I would definitely come back just because of the workers. I ordered purple dream and the thank you berry matcha, both which were fantastic. Can't wait to come back! read more
