    OMG why is no one talking about the Nitro-coffee on tap? It is a must try especially with the summer looking at us. Stellar service ive had the burritos too. Taken many many bags of used up coffee grounds up used for my gardening compos. For free they post the free brown bags of 10 lbs coffee grounds again for gardening. Regardless great brew house. With front easy parking. No steps easy for our elders access or those in wheelchairs.

    Issues with WiFi - use ATT, not pilgrimscoffeeGuest
    Breana D.

    Not the best experience. For context: I came to grab a coffee since I had a busy work day ahead of me. I started to browse the menu, not sure what I wanted since it was my first time there. Couldn't decide yet so I sat down and tried to connect my laptop to the WiFi but it took me longer than expected because the WiFi in big letters was invalid. The network wouldn't pop up and I had a work meeting in less than 30 minutes (I restarted my laptop, downloaded the newest update, tried to enter the network manually etc. etc.) nothing was working then I took another look and saw there was a small sticker on top that says ATT. I finally got connected with that network with 5 minutes to spare for my meeting so I got myself situated and hopped on the call. During the meeting, the owner came up to me and said "if you're going to hang out here you need to buy something" it was honestly really off setting because he interrupted me mid conversation so I pointed to my headphones to let him know I was on a call. Afterwards, I walked over and let him know I was planning on grabbing a drink after my meeting and he told me I should have paid for something before hand.......I told him no worries, i'll leave I won't be spending my money here after all and packed up my things and left. But honestly if it weren't for the whole WiFi situation I would have been able to order my drink prior but that interaction happened and I didn't feel the need to explain myself but the fact that he was rude about it I would rather not support this business, there's way better coffee shops in the area.

    Coffee Thursday ..

    Pilgrim's Coffee House Fullerton, CA We checked out Pilgrim's Coffee in Fullerton! Overall, we had a pleasant experience and enjoyed the traditional coffee local coffee house atmosphere. Iced Butterscotch with oatmilk   We were curious to try this drink and were pleased by how subtle and smooth it was. It had a nice mellow sweetness, and the coffee flavor wasn't too bitter. The drink seemed a little lighter, requiring more coffee. We recommend adding an extra shot next time for more of that espresso kick. The Iced Pistachio with oatmilk This drink was enjoyable. This drink had a full and rich flavor at the beginning, with a good balance between nuttiness and coffee. Definitely felt like a more developed drink. The barista was super kind, helpful, and informative,  adding a wonderful personality to the whole experience. We enjoyed talking to her and felt so welcomed. We also love that the shop is dog-friendly. Plgrim's also has a good variety of drinks and food to choose from. We're definitely open to coming back and trying more. They've got a solid menu with plenty of options!

    chocolate chip cookies and vanilla latte
    Timmy S.

    I visited this quiet coffee shop late on a weekday afternoon. The vibe is chill and peacefull. The interior has quite a number of tables and art by Fullerton College students was scattered on the walls. I ordered a regular sized vanilla latte and a pack of two homemade chocolate chip cookies. They use Golden State Coffee here which is high quality. My latte lacked any vanilla flavor but the coffee itself was excellent. The cookies, wrapped in plastic wrap, tasted fresh and had plenty of chips to satisfy a chocolate sweet tooth. The friendly, kind fellow working here seemed to know most of the customers who were coming in, chatting while taking their orders. Definitely a great place to come if you want a relaxing place to sit and space out while enjoying your coffee.

    Cute little coffee shop. Small selection of coffees and lots of seating. Glad there was lots of outlets for my electronics.

    Had to kill some time while the bookstore across this cafe was processing trade-in so I decided to stop by this cafe and get some coffee. As soon as I entered the cafe, all the artworks on the wall immediately captured my eyes. I was excited to see that they were all my Fullerton College colleagues' awesome collections that after I ordered my coffee from a friendly barista, I sat down and soak everything in. There were group of people studying/working with their laptop, catching up with friends and families and enjoying the warm sunny day with their favorite beverages. It was a very peaceful and comfortable place to hang out. I ordered iced Americano, hot chocolate and cinnamon roll, which wasn't great but there wasn't anything special about them. They also sold fruits and vegetable cold pressed juices so I'm interested in trying one of the juices next time.

    I loved visiting pilgrims! They had sugar free vanilla and their matcha was amazing. They also sugar free treats here which I appreciate! The space is great for getting some remote work done or studying. Highly recommend visiting.

    Great local coffee shop to have in Fullerton. Came here on an early Sunday morning and loved the cozy vibe of the shop. Service here is super friendly. They were really helpful when I asked for tea recommendations. Got the blueberry hibiscus tea and a bagel. Both were pretty standard. They do also sell pressed juice here and a variety of other drinks.

    Iced Matcha Latte
    Ariana H.

    While this coffee place is tucked away in DTF, don't underestimate it! My co-worker and I had been wanting to try out this place for a while and finally decided to visit on a rainy Monday. I was shocked at how busy it was inside (but then remembered it was a holiday and there's nothing like enjoying some coffee and doing work on a rainy day). My co-worker loves kombucha and was excited to see his favorite brand was on-tap. He got that and then I got an iced matcha latte w/ almond milk (my go-to at any coffee place). The prices here are some of the best in DTF. I think we had the owner as the person helping us out and he was very kind! I enjoyed my drink. Just from the vibes alone, I could tell this was a hidden gem. There's a bunch of seating inside and it just feels very cozy. Tons of cool/local art adorn the walls. I feel like if they had a stronger social media presence, they would be the talk of the DTF coffee scene (but that's just my marketing persona talking haha). Can definitely see myself coming back here with friends (or even just myself when I want to study).

    Books are available!
    Natalie J.

    Stopped in for a latte the other day. I was surprised to find this cute little cafe in DTF. There are many cafes around Fullerton but I have to say this is my favorite so far. They were playing relaxing music that's perfect for studying! The woman who took my order was in a great mood and she was so kind! I will definitely be back with my computer to study! The cafe was clean and welcoming as well

    Black bean and cheese breakfast burrito
    Jana H.

    Really love this downtown coffee shop. Their coffee is consistently good and the owner, Jeff, is super nice and friendly. Both their espresso (in an Americano) and drip coffee have good flavor and never seem too strong, weak, or watered down. They serve Golden State's coffee, which is another big plus. Tried their black bean and cheese breakfast burrito and it was just right for the price ($6.25). They also serve other breakfast burritos, breakfast sandwiches, and some pastries. Would highly recommend for a great spot for a meeting or to work.

There was also a yogurt-like cream on the bottom, and I personally could have gone without this cream, but loved the drink nonetheless! Service: You self order, and the drink comes out pretty fast in five to ten minutes. The cashiers are nice and call you by your name! Ambiance: The best quality about this cafe is it's such a nice place to study with many tables inside, a few tables outside, and a clean bathroom. Parking is also easy with a upstairs lot facing Vivot! There's also a bit of area to walk around the cafe for a study break! Also huge shout out to this cafe's hours as they're open from 7 AM-11 PM, so you feel no rush to quickly finish your tasks! Please come to Vivot for not only a refreshing drink, but a beautiful place to study that is open late!

    My second time here…read more Drinks: underwhelming. Not well proportioned ingredients between the chosen flavor, milk and matcha. Waterdowned with plenty of ice. Price: overpriced for both drinks and sandwivhes. Although I don't mind paying extra for a satisfying drink, this one is not one of those. Ambiance: the walls, decor, plants and furnitures needs plenty of improvement. It looked like they were going for a minimalist look but it seems too bland and all over the place. I appreciate the music but the overall ambiance is not very inviting. Service: self serve to order and they ask for tip? The customers are expected to clear the tables and put away food and drink containers. It doesn't make sense. Parking: it's downtown fullerton, unless you know the area, it might be difficult for you to find parking especially during peak hours. But there's a couple of parking structure nearby which is a plus because it's covered and free. By the way, I initially ordered the classic strawberry matcha for comparison to other matcha drinks I've had from other cafes and I came the 2nd time to try the matcha flight to give it a chance but I was underwhelmed on both times. On both occasion I ordered my drinks with coconut milk and it was so overpowering and matcha flavor is very mild and with addition of plenty of ice, it taste like a waterdowned green drink that's milky in flavor.

I ordered the Caramel Bliss latte (got it half sweet)... it's a caramel latte with vanilla cold foam and caramel drizzle. The prices here are good! The coffee is advertised as $5.99 and after tax comes out to about $6.50 which is still cheaper than most coffee shops these days. The drinks itself tasted amazing! Not too sweet and great flavor. I liked that you can actually taste the coffee. I think since it has cold foam it's still on the sweeter side so if you don't like coffee too sweet maybe skip the foam.

I got so many pastries. There were no misses. My favorite of the bunch was the blueberry cake. The cake wasn't too sweet, was moist, fluffy, and tasty. I enjoyed the matcha cheesecake, garlic sea salt bread, and raspberry cruffin as well. I also grabbed an egg bacon bread and regular sea salt bread to-go for future breakfasts. Warmed up, these were great in the morning! To drink I had the Banana Pudding Matcha Latte which was not too sweet and yummy! Good matcha flavor and the banana pudding was creamy.

The variety is definitely one of the strongest points here. We tried the Matcha Cruffin, Onion Cream Bread, and Three Cheese Bagel. The Onion Cream Bread was the best of the three. The cream was light and balanced well with the bread, but the onion flavor was pretty much lost. I could barely taste it. The Matcha Cruffin was disappointing. There was matcha powder on top, but absolutely no matcha filling inside. I'm not sure if they changed the recipe or simply missed the filling in ours, but for something sold as a matcha cruffin, I expected an actual matcha presence beyond the topping. The Three Cheese Bagel, made with cheddar, cream cheese, and mozzarella, had good flavor but the texture was much too hard. We were dining in and had it warmed up, yet the bread was still tough and the cheese inside had already hardened. Service was fine, but nothing stood out. Overall, great selection and a nice space, but the pastries we tried were inconsistent.

It's quite inconspicuous if driving past the cafe, but as we walked toward it, we noticed customers using their patio. We were greeted as we walked up to order using the kiosk. A few of the tables have handwritten notes underneath clear glass. I noticed many heartfelt messages that sparked my imagination as to how the writers must've felt. I enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere with chatter from local customers who seemed to know the owners well. We had also played a card game after eating, so this cafe is good for that as well. The owners were friendly and even took our plates and cups once we were finished. There's very limited parking right next to the cafe, so I had to make use of residential streets. However, it's worth making a trip here to try this coffeehouse. Also, It's interesting how they open early at 7 am per Google Maps. I usually don't see cafes opening that early, but this is a good tidbit of information for the future.
