    Wheat bagel with sausage, egg, avacado and bell peppers.
    Dee B.

    Can't go wrong with this spot! Family owned/ran, good prices and great quality food n' bevs. Support small businesses!

    Doesn't look like much, but they're so good. Fluffy, moist and easy on the sweetness.

    Linda's Coffee House...who would've thought they have such good breakfast burritos and donuts. Not me. That's for sure. We have been customers of Linda's Coffee House for several years now. It's usually my hubby that goes and grabs the food so I never get a chance to check-in on Yelp. Linda's, is located in the same lot as LA Fitness off of Portola and El Toro. Though it's a coffee house, you won't find seating inside like other coffee joints. They have a few tables and chairs outside the storefront. Linda's Coffee House, has delicious breakfast burritos and the salsas that come with it are great too. Unfortunately you can only have two salsas per burrito. Boo. I wish you could get 3-4 per burrito. It really is good. I usually order chorizo or bacon with extra bacon and easy on the hash. My favorite part about Linda's, are their donuts. These donuts are to me, the best. Even my kid who is picky but also not fond of donuts, loves the donuts here. Why? The donuts are fresh, moist, fluffy and the sweetness is perfect. I love sweets but it has to be just a little bit sweet. Places such as Krispy Kreme are good, but it's usually way too sugary for my liking. Service is fast and friendly with a smile. If you haven't already given them a try, you should really come by and grab some donuts and a treat.

    This is the place to go for coffee, donuts, breakfast burritos, and everything you want. The crew is so friendly and sweet. My husband and I love coming here in the mornings!

    Hair inside our breakfast burrito. Disgusting.
    Jordan L.

    We ordered from Linda's Coffee house. A burrito and a blt croissant. The burrito was big and heavy but it came with a surprise. Linda's hair! Never again As for the blt too much mayo globbed on. When I mean globbed it was like they took the mayo spoon and dropped it on one side and didn't spread it. Also glad we asked for no mustard. Who puts mustard on blt?

    Flavorless barely any sausage burrito
    Jerry F.

    It (Sausage burrito) was "good" at best and lacked flavor! And it SURE didn't look like the pictures! But it didn't suck! It was just "Okay"! It needed more Sausage! I don't even think there was 1 whole link in the entire burrito. Kinda disappointing. I don't think I'll get it again, or go back here. Sorry! Just being honest.

    My family has been coming to Linda's for years. It's in a plaza with a large LA Fitness so there's plenty of parking. When you first walk into Linda's it may not seem like much, but the food is such good quality with a great amount of options. There's plenty of pre and post workout options to make it convenient for gym members. There's donuts, smoothies, amazing coffee, delicious croissants, and my don-in-law's favorite breakfast burritos. They have no problem making substitutions on made to order items. Today I placed an order in the Too Good To Go app. I payed $6.99 for a surprise box to pick up between 9am-1pm. They gave me a bakers dozen (13) scrumptious fresh donuts, including bars, twist, a cinnamon roll, glazed, and cake donuts! This box would've cost over $20 regularly. My teens were thrilled for an after school treat! Linda's will always be a family favorite!

    This is the first time we ate here & it was because of the Too Good To Go app. I highly recommend! The service was fantastic too. Very friendly & helpful staff.

    Bacon  & sausage breakfast burrito with avocado  (eggs over easy)
    CoRy C.

    Best place in Lake Forest for Donuts. In addition, yummy breakfast burritos. One of the ladies at Linda's highly recommended to try their breakfast burritos one morning. She noticed, I only get donuts from them. I told her I would try their breakfast burrito if she would make the eggs over easy and Leeka said no problem. So, I ordered the bacon , sausage breakfast burrito with avocado (eggs over easy). It definitely hit the spot with their homemade salsa. The service is always excellent. Everyone that works there is very friendly and happy working there. Their shop is always clean and organized. Overall, this place is a weekly spot for us. We will definitely be back for donuts & breakfast burritos .

    I used the "Too Good To Go" app to get a good deal on random stuff. What I got was a beautiful selection of a dozen doughnuts. My assumption was, like the bagel places that participate, that they would fill the box with stuff they knew would be left over by the end of the day. It was immediately clear these were not that day's doughnuts. The texture of them was of those at least a day old, like they had been refrigerated. Parts of them were sampled, but every declaration from my family was that they were stale. This review only reflects the deal from the app. I would avoid that, unless you ask for assurances that the doughnuts are from the same day. I probably should have guessed that they weren't fresh, since the person who brought the box did not fill it from the case in front. They were retrieved from the back... The staff was friendly.

It's just because I don't know what it means to practice financial discernment when it comes to fresh bread. And welllllll, look at who's back at Brio Brio Bakery & Cafe again...... I used to come here way more often back when I had recurring appointments in the area, but these days I rarely ever find myself in South OC. Tonight, however, I had a last minute opportunity fall into my lap when I was invited off the wait list to attend a Yelp Elite event at Onyx Golf. Naturally, I had to make an "unnecessary" bakery detour before moseying my way over to the actual main event. Listen -- you have your priorities and I have mine. We listen and we don't (critically) judge! Upon arriving to my old stomping grounds, I immediately went for my usual: the hojicha Basque cheesecake. Some things don't need to be reinvented. It's still rich and creamy as ever, and it's basically the reason I still come back to this place. Since I don't get down here as often anymore, I figured I'd live life a little more frivolously and grab some items I haven't tried before, such as their prime beef curry, kurobuta miso sausage, honey toast, and a GF brownie. My plan for a sweet treat quickly evolved into a larger commitment of carbohydrates, but honestly, I'd like to think of these items as a gift from past me to future me. Brio Brio is also running a promo right now where you get a free cookie with purchase during certain hours. I just want to be fully transparent that I don't remember what those hours are or how long the promo is running, just that it's a weekday ordeal. I know, incredibly insufferable Yelp Elite reporting on my part. You'll simply just have to go in and ask them about it or look for the signage near the register, and then purchase that item you need to qualify for the deal to begin with. Consider my review a very detailed advertisement about a potentially complimentary cookie that idk how to explain the sourcing means for. Lmao, my bad, y'all. Either way, it was refreshing to visit again after all these years. If you're stopping by Brio Brio, you really need to get the hojicha Basque cheesecake. That's singlehandedly the menu item I'll keep coming back for, even when it means I'll be suffering in rush hour traffic on the drive back home.

Most seating is indoors with a couple of outdoor tables too. I ordered a hot Spanish latte plus chose a blueberry jam muffin from the pastry case. And a Campfire Cookie as a bonus. The place was fairly full but I found a seat at a counter. The Spanish latte was superb with smooth coffee and cinnamon flavors that blended for a perfectly balanced profile. I appreciated it was at an immediately drinkable temperature. The muffin was really, really good. Really. It was moist, fresh, and full of blueberries and a layer of blueberry jam. The big cookie was quite good, although in all honesty I've had better in this genre. I didn't stay long as there was some annoying guy who'd set up office at a table with his AirPods firmly inserted and loudly giving legal advice in an obnoxious manner that is typical of ambulance-chaser lawyers. Why do coffee shops put up with this?
