    Açai Bowl
    Katya Z.

    I came here after a workout because I was craving an acai bowl and a lot of places don't open until 9:00AM. I got the aćai bowl which they only have 1 option for it but you can add a couple things to it if in additional like peanut butter for an extra charge. They don't blend the açai fresh - I believe the cups are pre-done in a freezer in the back and then they add the fruits + granola. It didn't have as much flavor as other bowls I've had, felt like it could use some simple adds like coconut shavings and agave or honey. It was good for what it was but definitely could be improved!

    Vanilla chai latte
    Lauren C.

    The vanilla chai latte was DELICIOUS. Seating is a little limited, but on a Saturday morning, the place was not that crowded, and there's a small outdoor patio area nice for getting work done. Staff is speedy. Haven't tried any of their food items yet but would love to come back to try some as well as their other drinks.

    Spanish Latte with oat milk
    Desiree P.

    You had me at Spanish Latte with Oat Milk. Which I think I gulped down in less than a minute because I couldn't set it down it was that delicious (plus I was way overdue for caffeine). I love the little outdoor patio and enjoyed the vibe while my coffee was being made. Around 11ish during the day not so busy and places to sit. Heads up, it's at the Camp so parking can be tricky. But friends it is totally worth it. Counting down until my next visit.

    Chocolate Monkeys
    Lily C.

    Stopped in more an early afternoon snack/boost of energy and I was feeling something sweet and got the chocolate monkey smoothie with coffee. I felt like it was a very large portion for the price, especially in that general area where that is the typical price for a regular latte. Tasted like exactly what I wanted, this is a great place to stop if you are in the mood for a good smoothie!

    Cute little coffee shop! We got the vanilla latte and we liked it. They have yummy looking pastries too!

    Avocado Toast
    Alex S.

    Trendy, unique little coffee and tea shop! The drinks were delicious and super interesting. First time ever seeing banana coffee on a menu let alone trying it! My husband ordered the banana coffee hot and I got an iced campfire latte. Their chai tea was also recommended to us. The avocado toast we ordered was just ok, and it took a long time. Their drinks were definitely their superior menu item. Our drinks came out pretty quickly, but it seemed like a fair number of people were waiting 5-10+ minutes for theirs. Their bathroom was also a downside. It did not have the same cute, updated aesthetic as the rest of the cafe. I had to rummage through their storage cabinet to find TP, and they were also out of paper towels (couldn't find those). Overall, I would have their drinks again but only if I wasn't in a hurry! I'd probably skip the food next time.

    Drink: the Iced Hanoi Coffee is a Vietnamese Style Coffee with Hazel Cream Top and it was a great blend of a traditional Vietnamese coffee with a a nice hazelnut flavored cream to soften the strong coffee flavor Service: everything is made to order Design: interiors is modern with a organic landscape vibe due to the growing vines that have coverd the facade and the outdoor dining patio Overall: if you want really good unique espresso-type drinks in the Costa Mesa area at the Camp, then check out this spot

    Mango Tropic Smoothie
    Britney M.

    That oat milk lavender tea is the goat!!!! Gosh the Lavender Oatmilk tea is so refreshing! It is way better than it has any right to be! Like how is this drink so good?!?! It's delicious. 10/10 I have ordered two different smoothies from Milk & Honey now. The smoothies are really good. The mango was probably my favorite! I ordered the Wild Berry the other day and that was good too. I did not like the raspberry seeds in the drink though. That is my only complaint about that smoothie. Otherwise very tasty and healthy.

    Banana Coffee
    Danielle B.

    The banana coffee was excellent! They make a homemade banana purée that tastes so fresh and perfectly sweet. Since this shop is located in the camp, parking can definitely be a disaster.

    The outdoor patio with the drinks I got.
    Ana N.

    The place is super cute! I love the decor! I love the outdoor patio covered with purple flowers that makes you feel like you're inside a botanical garden. And the Spanish latte with oat milk was amazing! For all the coffee lovers. My husband did get the campfire latte which has tofu on top and looks very sweet. For the sweet, sweet coffee lovers. The customer service was exceptional!

    Hanoi coffee
    Emily J.

    The Hanoi coffee tastes a lot like Lee's Vietnamese coffee to me. The interior is cute, but there isn't much seating. The drink is a bit on the sweet side, but it was still decent. The service was pretty quick since it was kind of empty. The price is just a bit much for me at $6.20.

    Lavender Latte Cooler & Lavender Latte
    Shauna S.

    Calling all lovers of lavender & honey. This place has mastered the perfect balance of the honey lavender flavor. It's just so rich and sweet. The outside patio is engulfed in twigs/greenery. It feels so peaceful in such a busy plaza. Obviously you need to fight to get a parking spot since it's located at the Camp, but worth the hassle.

    Campfire Latte Dalgona & Mango Tropic Smoothie
    Juliana W.

    A quaint spot with a beautiful ambiance and outdoor space. I got the campfire latte which had a toffee piece melted on top and I had a mango smoothie which was refreshing and energizing.

    Ask the Community - Milk & Honey

    What should I do if I can't find parking? What are other options?

    If there's no parking in front of Milk & Honey just park in "The Camp" parking lot around the corner! I've always been able to find parking there except one time when I had to park at "The Lab" which you can see across the street from The Camp.

    Do they still sale French macaroons?

    not when I went yesterday 2/16/21

    Do they do order through the phone and pick up in store?

    Yes I've done this before with their açaí bowls :)

    Are you closed during the pandemic?

    It was open in late Nov, 2020 when I visited... before OC returned to purple tier and the SoCal regional stay at home order that went into effect on Monday, Dec 7.

    Is the outdoor patio dog friendly?

    The outdoor area is enclosed from within the tea shop. I would not say it is dog friendly

    Is this the same Milk & Honey that started in Tennessee?

    No. This is family owned in California.

    Are there any vegan items my sister is vegan?

    Sure! In terms of drinks, there are quite a few coffee options as well as lemonades and smoothies (which I'm sure you can substitute a plant based milk in). Food wise, there's the açaí bowl (just ask for no honey), fruit bowl, oatmeal, peanut butter… 

    Does this place have board games? I'm trying to find a date night. Is it good for a date?

    No board game. But I think this Cafe is good for a date!

It is the perfect amount of sweet and tastes just like a snickerdoodle cookie. I also appreciate the good amount of mix ins for both flavors.

They do have them where I'm at in Las Vegas, but I have yet to visit any of those establishments. I was super hungry and thought I want to go try that rib sandwich. Place is easy to find right off 17th Street. You really can't miss it with that big sign. And the building is definitely unique as well so you shouldn't have any problem finding it Inside you can either choose to go digital and and skip talking to a real person. I'm old school, I actually like engaging with people. So I went to the counter. I ordered the rib sandwich without looking, and was a little shocked by the total. The sandwich itself is 15 bucks, I ordered a small fry which was $4.50, and a small drink which was $4. With a 15% tip my total came out to $28. Definitely a little shell-shocked by that. Now let's talk about the sandwich. It came to the table and at first glance it looked very small. When I picked it up there was a very generous portion of rib meat inside like a big chunk of rib meat. Huge pickles and a lot of sauce. It was a great sandwich. Do not get me wrong, what I ordered again? Maybe. They don't really have a meal deal that includes fries and a drink so it's sort of all a la carte. Now let's talk about the taste. The fries were perfectly cooked, and the sandwich itself was a solid 10. That being said, I would definitely feel more comfortable paying $12 for this sandwich, as I think 15 is a little exuberant. And you don't really get that many fries for $4.50. I can't imagine what the meal deal would have been, but I'm sure people would absolutely balk at that price. I would have given it a five-star review, but that is way too much for that sandwich. As delicious as it was, I just don't feel right spending that much for a sandwich. If it could be reworked, and the price dropped down I would be all in in a heartbeat. Bottom line? If you've been wanting to try it, I say go ahead. Just be warned that you could be unpleasantly surprised unless you know what the prices are you're getting into.

The mint and chip is basic. Nothing too much about it. My kids like it, so I got it. Average 3/5. The rose ice cream tasted like a rose, it was pretty good and very floral. The disappointing part is I was hoping the ice cream would be shaped like a rose as depicted on the picture. Nope, just a scoop and left it as is. 5/5 for taste and 0/5 for presentation. The milk and cereal one was actually pretty good. Especially with Frosted Flakes in it. It literally taste like cereal. 5/5. I would give it a higher star if the service complimented it and th presentation of the rose ice cream did.
