Weak coffee, rude customers and even more rude employees. The large should come with 3 shots and it came with 2 and so much milk it was so gross. $9 for 2 drinks plus $7 for additional shots. Everyone sets up working offices so you can't sit inside. read more

I wish that my father could remember that Peet's is not my favorite coffee. Yet every time we meet for coffee he suggests Peet's. Although he can't even remember my birthday so I shouldn't be surprised. Anyhow, the coffee has caffeine in it so it gets the job done. It's not what I would call "bad" coffee, it's just not that good. In today's coffee market there are so many small artisanal coffee roasters that the game has been stepped up... I guess Peet's didn't get the message. It's not just their coffee. The pastries look like something that was mass produced, packaged in bulk and shipped out. Not very "in house" looking. I'm mean...it beats 7-11 coffee or gas station but in all honesty, if I'm drinking big chain coffee just keep driving to Starbucks, there is most likely one within a mile or so read more

Peet's Coffee - Coffee...starts my heart in the morning - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Irvine, California

I come here often to pick up coffee beans, prior to the pandemic this location is all clean and well maintained. Service is generally pretty fast considering how busy it can get. With COVID restrictions, the store is currently closed with the counter moved up to the door for ordering. You pick up your drinks on the other side of the store (where the other exit used to be). Order ahead of time on the app to minimize your waiting time! read more

I love the smell of coffee and coffee ice cream is my favorite, yet I'm not a big coffee drinker. This is even more odd considering I'm from Seattle, the land of coffee-mania. My coffee chain preferences range from extreme dislike (Starbucks) to true love (Tully's). Even though I've lived in California for over a dozen years now, I've never gone into a Peet's until today and found they serve a darn good cup of coffee. The interior of this location is exactly what you'd expect of most any coffee chain but it's less cold-corporate feeling and more on the "relax and enjoy your cup o' joe" side. I found the staff to all be full of smiles and friendly. I got a vanilla latte and sat outside at one of several tables along the perimeter to sip and enjoy it. Very good latte - I was pleased. Located in the Crossroads shopping plaza, there's plenty of parking. Nice job Peete's. I will not hesitate to stop in again. read more

I ordered a pineapple citrus tea on 5/13 Friday between 12-1pm. I didn't notice when I first picked up the drink but this (the picture below) is what I saw when I was halfway through the drink. FOR PEET'S SAKE! ARE YOU SERIOUS? This is the moldiest, nastiest, COVID 22 lemon slice I've ever seen! The only reason I haven't gone back to go full Karen on them is because I'm far away. It's only been a few hours and I'm HOPING my immune/digestive system got it under control or else it won't end with just this post. read more

Peet's Coffee - When life gives you lemons, make sure they're not moldy af before serving customers. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Irvine, California

This is one of 3 Peet's locations in Irvine, this one in between the Orchard Hills and Campus shops. Even though there are a lot of other stores nearby there usually seems to be parking if you are just coming to get a drink and take it to go. Service is pleasant. Drinks are prepared well without a long wait. There is the indoor and outdoor seating available at this fairly popular location, so there won't be a lot available most the time, but you can usually find a seat if are getting your beverage to stay for a while. They have a good selection of pastries and their new breakfast sandwiches. read more

Peet's is as authentic as coffee gets! When you walk into the cafe, it has an lasting aroma of coffee beans roasting that makes you want to keep breathing in the scented air. The service is quick (in and out in about 7 minutes) and the atmosphere is comfy With an emphasize on productivity. I didn't stay to study at this shop but I did notice that many of the sit-down guest had their laptops out and were putting in some work. Overall, doesn't seem like my type of study environment but will definitely be aiming back for the flavorful drinks. The barista, Selena, was super sweet and personable. It was my first time at this establishment so I asked her for recommendations and she gave me about four different drink names and their description based on the ingredients and how much coffee was in them. I think she could tell I was a newbie to this coffee world. I thought it was super sweet that she was willing to describe so many drinks so I could make the best choice for me. Out of all of them, her description for the Havana Cappuccino had me sold when she said it was espresso mixed with condensed milk, milk foam, and topped with a dash of cinnamon. Anything with condensed milk sound delicious to me so I got that one, iced of course! The presentation of the Havana Cappuccino is, on its own, marvelous! It looks like a cloud of cinnamon on top of a serene creamy sky. I will admit the color makes it seem like the coffee will be dilute and that it will be one of those sweet coffee drinks that taste like there is no coffee in it. However, in this case, looks do not tell the whole story! I was pleasantly surprised to find out that the coffee flavor is actually enhanced, yet not overbearing, in this drink. The condensed milk is probably the reason for this drink's smooth and delicious taste. As if that isn't enough, the hint of cinnamon gives this drink a nice kick of flavor that makes me want to keep going back for more! Peet's coffee beats any other coffee shop that I have gone to by far. When looking for authentic coffee that isn't rundown by sugar but actually enhanced with its added ingredients, this is the place to go! read more

I went back and was asked to wear a mask nicely and gave me one so I wore it and ordered. The I sat down and took off my mask until they called my name and I put on the mask for the moment I picked up my coffee then took it off and threw it in the trash. Just doing my part to save everyone in there from coronavirus. read more

The ambiance is great and the staff always takes the time to make the drinks great. I've ordered all different types of coffee and lattes and cappuccinos and they're all been fantastic. read more

I love this place, I'm here a lot, but the outlet are so worn they can't support my Mac book charger. I show up hoping that no one is using the one good outlet if I'm out of luck I'm back on the hunt for another study spot :/ read more

I'm not sure how many Peet's Coffee are out there, probably not too many, but this location is my favorite for coffee and service. If we're talking chain coffee joints and to go right down to the bean. I find Peet's tastes way better than Starbucks by a long shot. Not only that, the prices for a large iced coffee here is cheaper than the competition. I normally come here for the "Iced White Chocolate Mocha with Brown Butter". Many times I would have to ask my wife what this choice is called because the flavors in this is too much to remember. Anyways, it has a good combination of milk, sweet and roast tasting all rolled into one. Although the brown butter is currently not available, this coffee has been my favorite here for a long time. (But, please have the brown butter year round). Other flavors I've tried here is "The Black Tie". Its cold brew coffee in condense milk. I find this choice a lot sweeter than others. The "Havana Cappuccino", it tastes bolder and uses condense milk. Also it's topped with creamy steam milk and sprinkled with cinnamon flavor. I do like how they place their cups on the counter, for you to see them pour milk and coffee at the same time in front of you, to me that's a premium to add to the experience. I'd like to mention about the service here and give kudos to the manager for putting the right people in place. Although there maybe new faces overtime, everyone has been welcoming and friendly with a smile in the morning. During my time here they did mess up my order only once. I come here for cold coffee and they gave me hot, but that doesn't stop me from coming because their stuff is amazing and service here still kicks ass. read more

Peet's Coffee - Iced Havana Cappuccino - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Irvine, California

I want to thank Peets on Barranca in Irvine for hiring Haval, a wonderful barista who helped me out recently when I ordered a coffee and discovered I had left my wallet at home. So embarrassing. He immediately said "don't worry, this drink's on me.". He was very kind and understanding...I got the same vibe all his colleagues are the same way and look forward to going back soon. AND, the coffee was delicious. read more

My new favorite study spot.. sorry Starbucks! Peet's has great homey vibes, despite it being a chain, w/ the nicest baristas. Spent hours working there and noticed that it's a popular chess tournament hub. My usual is the Café Au Lait (coffee + steamed milk) and I just add a drop of honey found at the condiment bar. All in all - better tasting, aromatic coffee than the competitive Starbucks & very warm atmosphere perfect for late night work sessions. read more

While I love the service and selection at Peet's, their coffee is a hit or miss. I love blended drinks and the mocha here was just not good. My husbands caramel better, but both pretty artificial and not enough coffee. Might be back to try something else next time or add an extra shot or two. Location itself is nice, drinks came out quickly and there was plenty of seating. read more

Love all Peet's! Wish there were more, so we can't go everyday but we do enjoy it often. My husband usually gets the latte and he is always satisfied. I tend to go with the brewed coffee and it is also tasty. This most recent visit I went for the spiced hot tea cider and it was great! Every time we have been to Peet's, no matter the location, the service has been great. The line is usually not too long but usually moves fast if it is. This location in particular is one of the more crowded locations but still not that bad. And it's location in a nice shopping complex so you can enjoy a meal first and have some coffee and dessert after! The prices are comparable to other competitors and we feel it tastes better, so it is totally worth the longer drive. Which we tend to do on the weekends. The only criticism is that they don't have an app and we tend to go to Peet's after we have spent the entire day out so we usually don't have our Peet's gift card with us. But one of these days we will use it! Thank goodness it doesn't expire. read more

Stopped here on my way to Target on several occasions. The first visit, there were 5 employees which some were standing around while two of them were in the middle of training a new employee. There was no one at the counter and it took them exactly 12 minutes before one them decided it may be a good idea to take our order. We eventually, ordered the chai tea latte iced which was a bit on the sweet side topped off with almond milk. Parking is available throughout the shopping center and there is seating available inside. read more

I was pleasantly surprised when I was driving up Barranca and spotted this Peet's just up the street from my favorite but now recently closed OC Peets location which was in the District in Tustin. I never realized this location even existed or was so close to the old Tustin location. Glad to know there is a Peet's in the area. I ordered one of their new iced tea coolers made with Mighty Leaf tea, the Mango Sunrise lemonade iced tea is really refreshing. Brewed Teas are currently $1 off with Yelp Check in, always nice to get a little price break! read more

I love Peets! I'd definitely come here for coffee over that other place, but their refreshers/coolers aren't as good as my fav Very Berry Hibiscus at that other place... Never long lines when I come here. This location you can find empty tables to hang out and sip a lil, talk a lil, relax a lil... Thumbs up to Peets! read more

Peet's Coffee - Raspberry scone - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Irvine, California

Mobile orders are so easy with their app and my usual order is their espresso chai latte - I get it with oatmilk and decaf because I'm sensitive to caffeine. Once again, I think their UX on their app is really good with decent amount of modifications for one's drink order. The service at this location has been superb as they have their entrance blocked off with some tables at this time and have one person to take your order and hand you your drink if you don't order ahead of time. I'm addicted to their espresso chai latte right now and keep reloading money into their app Lol. read more

Peet's Coffee - Peets teas & coffees - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Irvine, California

It's a nice change from Starbucks, but whether the environment suits you depends on whether you like classical music. They do play classical music at a medium-level volume, and for me, listening to it for about 15 minutes or so is enough for me to check out. So I hurriedly finished my coffee and left. But if you are a classical music fan, you could stay there all day long! The coffee is good. Last time I had a medium roast and found it a bit too light. Today I had the Ethiopia roast, which is a darker roast, and it was good. Rich and flavorful with just enough bitterness to spice it up. Service has been good and all the employees have been friendly and helpful. Tip #1: Soy milk for your coffee is available on request. Just ask! Tip #2: As of today, check in with your Yelp App to get $1 off a maple or pumpkin beverage. A cool place to return for a change of pace and a change of flavor and taste. But a classical music lover would probably enjoy the place more than I do. read more

The local Peet's is a great one. Come here to get away from the corporate feel of Starbucks. Was just here recently and the baristas are friendlier, share "genuine" interest in your day & properly spell your name! I also like the more creative/various new menu items for the holiday. This location is in a large parking lot for a strip mall, so expect a little bit of backup during peak hours, but otherwise it's fine! When in need of coffee, to study for finals or just a place to hang out, come here instead of Starbucks! read more

This coffee house is always busy and despite that, the drinks come out fast. It's a place where everybody knows your name and drink before you reach the cash register. The drinks are quality delicious as well read more

Um, guys...I think this might have been my first time going to Peets. I know...crazy!! I had lunch in the area and decided to stop in because one of my coworkers was like, "OMG PEETS, WE HAVE TO GO TO PEETS!" Sure. I wasn't feeling coffee cause it was 1pm and that mean if I consume caffeine after that time, I won't sleep tonight. I decided to get an iced matcha latte. Only after I purchased it, Yelp check-in offers $1 off on their new Javiva blended drinks. What I really liked is that they confirm instead of assume. They asked if I wanted it unsweetened and if 2% milk was okay to which I replied yes. This was pretty darn good! I think lightly sweetened would have made it perfect, but I'll have to try that out next time, along with their Javiva matcha blend. All things green tea!! Overall, I'm a fan. If only there were more Peet's in the area I would make myself a regular. read more

I'd like to make this my main location for coffee and pastries, but it's frequently jam-packed for hours with locals and students. Additionally, the noise levels when the place is at capacity are ridiculous, especially when the grinder is running. Pastries (when you can obtain them, and don't hold your breath) are still delicious. Most of the baristas go above and beyond on customer service. The parking lot remains a Kobiyashi Maru. read more

Sometime in this day and age we get so hype about the some fancy coffee bean that we forget the basics. That with reasonable beans but great barrister can make outstanding coffee. And this location coffee barrister is good. I ordered a caramel cafe latte with soy milk. It was perfectly balanced with no bitter taste but yet had a depth of coffee flavor without being overly acid taste. It was so good that even my wife who isn't into coffee kept drinking it and when I went out to get more coffee she asked if I was going back to same location. read more

Nice Peet's location. The coffee is good and the staff are friendly and work fast. Special orders are no problem here. Vegan options also available. The restaurant is also nice and tidy. Park in the adjacent lot for free. read more

Peets has great coffee, but what kills this location's rating is the hours. Only open until 5:30 pm during the week, and only 5 on the weekend, when most places are usually open later, especially Saturday when people are out and about. It is unfortunate because it just drives a lot of business to other local coffee shops which are open until 8, 9, 10 or later. read more

They are super insistent of making you wear a mask when ordering a drink. The ironic thing is you have people sitting all over the place less than 6 feet talking without masks on. Not going to go to Pete's anymore with their woke culture. I'm surprised they don't make you show proof of a vaccine card just to get a coffee. Nobody else cares at this point stop so bothering your customers about masking it's bad for business! read more

Nice spacious location with plenty or seats to enjoy your favorite drink. I also appreciate that this location, on like other Peet's recently, will give you the free small coffee/tea card when you buy any loose leaf or bagged teas (if you chose not to get one right then & there). All locations used to do that, but now it seems fewer and fewer are. Barista was very friendly, drinks were made to expectation, and my wife & I were able to get in & out of there quickly enough. Now, if Peet's would only go back to selling their own brand of teas. This Mighty Leaf stuff just isn't cutting it. read more

I love this place!! The service is awesome! Everyone is so friendly and helpful! There's always a smile on the cashier and barista's faces! The coffee: so strong and flavorful! I love the "build your own latte" with different milk (soy, almond, regular, etc) you can choose from! Peet's coffee has converted me! I'm sold and would rather come here for my weekend treats! **Bonus: if you check in you can get $1 off your latte! read more
