This is a nice cafe with artsy and vintage decor. The staff is friendly and helpful. Indoor seating is limited but there's plenty of seating outside. I ordered the romeo and juliette crepe, crepe jambon fromage, and nutella beignet. Romeo and Juliette Crepe- This has rich nutella that is brightened up with bananas and strawberries. The galette is chewy. Crepe Jambon Fromage- This is a savory crepe with ham, mild gruyere, and cornichons that give it a hit of tartness. Finished with creamy bechamel. Nutella Beignet- Beignet is soft and fluffy with a generous amount of nutella filling. Finished with a dusting of powdered sugar. Quite rich! Great experience overall! read more

The cutest little coffee shop tucked away within within office buildings in Irvine. The shop itself gives clean, simple, coffee shop vibes, and they offer a pretty substantial menu of food as well. The menu also includes sweets, crepes, sandwiches and more. The staff is super sweet, and please note that you may need to wait a bit for your order if there are several folks in at one time. The barista really does take their time to ensure the drinks are made well which is worth waiting for! Refer to my photos for the full menu. They have limited seating inside but plenty of seating outside. The exterior seating area is also nice, quiet, and is the perfect spot to sit and catch up with a friend. If you're in the area or nearby and looking for a good sit, sip, and catch up spot, this should definitely go on your list! read more

Great vibes. Wide selection. I enjoyed my drink! Cant wait to try the affogato Only is the open bakery area...which had bugs. read more

Absolutely terrible experience. From the moment you walk in, the customer service is practically nonexistent. No greeting, no acknowledgment, nothing. The baristas seemed completely oblivious to the customers around them. What made it even more uncomfortable was that the owner was there and kept staring at me for some reason without ever saying a word. It created a really strange and unwelcoming atmosphere. On top of that, they take forever to prepare even the simplest order--even when the shop is practically empty. You would expect the food or drinks to at least make up for the poor service, but unfortunately, they don't. The food was mediocre at best. Overall, this place seems to have absolutely no concept of hospitality or customer service. Slow service, uncomfortable atmosphere, mediocre food, and staff who act like customers are an inconvenience. There are way too many good coffee shops out there to waste your time or money here. I highly recommend going somewhere else. read more

Love this place!!! It's in a very quiet location between businesses, but they did so much with the area that it's very calm and relaxing. The drinks are amazing!!!!! & the crepes are SO good. The baristas were very friendly and took their time and love to make our drinks and food. Outside is really neat! You can sit in the shade/sun in one of the lounge areas, or play mini golf! There's even a bean bag toss game. Looks like there's more to be added soon.. saw a fountain being worked on. Overall, really nice and calm. Very sweet environment. I would go again! read more

This is a great coffee shop in Irvine near the Hampton Inn and John Wayne Airport in Orange County. Lots of great seating inside and out. Excellent vibe and relaxing music. People bring their dogs which completed the Socal coffee feeling. Now, the coffee. The T2 espresso machine puts out a great espresso and quickly. I'm calling it the Coffee Terminator. I opted for this over my usual black drip or pour over (sadly no pour over). I ordered the grilled croissant with egg, cheese and bacon. It was so tasty I forgot to take a photo, sorry for that! This is a place worthy of stopping by. A lot of loving care went into everything at Press & Moka. Tables, music, tables and cups. I liked the cups so much I bought one! Open on Sunday, too. read more

This was my favorite find in Irvine this week! I was staying at the Hilton and everyone suggested this place for "real coffee" and that's the case- I returned a few times (it's a very short walk from the Hilton) and tried a few of their specialty and seasonal drinks- everything was great They also have very friendly and efficient service and IG-worthy seating outside - Cannot remember the woman's name that was so awesome but she's a Snoopy fangirl like me so thanks, chica! read more

It's a charming place. I went there on a Saturday morning and there was plenty of paid parking, which they validate for two hours. I liked their French-style interior and additional seats outside. I ordered the strawberry crepes and the mocha with oat milk. The food was ok, but the mocha wad too watered down. I can only assume they didn't shake the oat milk carton first, as that can result in a very watery drink. Service: 5 | Ambiance: 5 | Parking: 3 | Drinks: 2 Food: 4 read more

Super cute space! The location is perfect and the amount of outdoor seating is amazing! You could sit by the water feature you or could sit out in the sun. There's so many options. The Wi-Fi works excellently. They have a ton of sandwich and crêpe options. The coffee is great! No complaints. The staff was nice and really helpful when it came to finalizing my order. The indoor space is pretty small, so just keep that in mind. I don't recall seeing a restroom. read more

2/27/26 Overrated. But, is it worth it? It took them quite a bit of time to acknowledge me with a very uncomfortable silence. I took off a star just for that. There was just that one customer ahead of me who happened to ask questions that took the staff 's attention for a while. There was nobody else in line besides myself. The barista just stared at me until he realized "oh yes, let me say Hi" I'm big on service it wasn't boding well. The aesthetics was impressive though, I will give them that. The space is small indoors, a good ) sets of tables/chairs to accommodate about a dozen patrons. The pastry shelf boasted a few enticing morsels, limited but interesting selection. When the staff finally was freed from the customer who asked some long questions, she was attentive. I ordered what looked enticing, the S'mores Biscoff. In hindsight, I should've gone with my usual to compare to other coffee shops (hot oat milk latte). I'm thoroughly enamor with the spacious accommodations of their outdoor area. It was a very hot day in February but it was cool outside. There was plenty of tables & chairs, natural greenery & even a waterfall. One could really spend a good afternoon savoring a good cup here. The beverage was so tiny (see photos). For over $9, it sure was stunning (for its stature & content). It was more of dessert than a drink but it was delicious, if you prefer your beverage on the sweeter side. It is lovely though. Would I order it again? Perhaps not I will stick to my oat milk latte. The view: 5/5, drink: 3/5, service: 3.5/5 Will I return to give em a fair shake? Why the heck not? The view is worth it if in the area lol read more

I've been here a couple times before today. We decided to come today for Newport restaurant week menu. It's a pretty good deal for a drink, sandwich from their list, and two beignets. They do validate parking when you park in their garage for two hours. They have a wide variety of seating outside, only when the weather is nice. Otherwise, there's only a few tables on the inside. I enjoyed that they have several housemaid syrups. You can have your pic of coffee. So I really do enjoy their drinks. As for the sandwich, I ordered the grilled chicken sandwich on ricotta bread. It was actually more bread than fillings. The chicken I thought was lacking. But it did have good flavors. My friend's avocado toast looked good, but very small for the price. The beignets were basically two donut holes, so I wouldn't get that again. Overall, I would come back for their coffee drinks. SYOY! read more

This café has such a cozy European vibe and feels like the perfect place to relax, catch up with friends, or get some work done. The atmosphere was warm, clean, and super inviting with beautiful indoor and outdoor seating. We tried both the sweet and savory crepes, and they were SO delicious! The crepes were soft, fresh, and full of flavor. Perfect balance between sweet treats and savory brunch vibes. We also ordered the matcha latte and lavender latte, and both drinks were amazing. The matcha latte was smooth and creamy, while the lavender latte had such a light floral flavor that felt super relaxing and unique. The staff were very friendly and welcoming throughout our visit, and one thing I really appreciated was the FREE 2-hour parking, which made everything so much easier and stress-free. The outdoor seating area was peaceful and aesthetic, making it such a cute place for coffee dates, brunch, or even getting work done on your laptop. Definitely a hidden gem in OC! Can't wait to come back again and try more drinks and pastries! read more

Came by on a Sunday afternoon for some light breakfast. Parking is thru the structure so remember to get your ticket validated! The cafe is tucked in a quiet office building space with lots of outside seating making a really nice peaceful breakfast. The staff was super nice and sweet and helpful. I loved the French themed menu, it takes me back to walking into a little cafe in Paris. They have breakfast items like croque monsieur, croissant sandwiches, and a wide variety of crepes. You could also turn any crepe into an omelette! My bf ordered the smores biscoff drink and we got a jambon fromage crepe, croque madame, and a Romeo Juliet crepe which is like strawberries bananas and Nutella. I loved each breakfast item, the crepes were made to perfection and my bf loved the coffee! Definitely coming back because we loved the vibe of this little spot so much. read more

Parking does not seem to be free since there's a security arm that's present once you get a ticket at the entrance of the parking lot. I stopped by this cafe after dropping my rental car off at green motion thats 10-15 min walk away from this location. I got a matcha latte, nonfat milk, and added lavender syrup to it. Service was quick and there's plenty of food and drink options available. Lots of indoor and outdoor seating at the cafe. In addition to that, there's more seating nearby outside the cafe as well. Bathroom is across the cafe inside the building. Would definitely love to visit again if I'm ever in the area because I enjoy the environment. read more

Stopped by Press and Moka recently and was honestly so impressed. The space feels warm and inviting without being overly trendy. It is comfortable and calm which makes it perfect if you want to relax or get some work done. The coffee was smooth and flavorful without being too sweet. You can tell they care about quality and consistency. Everything came out beautifully presented and tasted just as good as it looked. Service was friendly and welcoming which made the whole experience even better. If you are in Orange County and looking for a solid coffee spot with great vibes, this is definitely worth checking out. I will be back. read more

This was a cute hidden gem coffee spot tucked in a corporate plaza near John Wayne Airport. I was already in the area for a medical appointment, and I was craving somewhere I could have lunch, matcha, and work on my laptop. Press & Moka was perfect for all 3. Parking was plentiful inside a structure, and validation was available for 2 hours. The place has a beautiful outdoor area with seating and string lights that I imagine look super pretty at night! The coffee shop itself is small and cute, and at the time I went it was decorated for Valentine's Day. I ordered the nova lox on an everything bagel and a matcha latte. The lox bagel was delicious and came with a yummy dill cream cheese. The matcha latte was a great afternoon pick-me-up. Service was quick and easy. I'm always looking for dog friendly spots around OC, and next time I'm in the area with my dog I will definitely think of this place's big outdoor area! read more

i was really excited to try this cafe, it looked like a super cute and chill place to relax and enjoy the surroundings. To start, the parking is by garage only. They do validate but its already a hassle to find parking and walk over to the cafe. I ordered a smores latte, which was not good. The coffee tasted stale and the syrups tasted too artificial. The baristas and cashier were also not friendly. I wouldnt go back which is a shame because it looks like such a nice calming area to rest and relax. read more

What a cute little coffee shop and more! Nestled in a little area along Von Karman, it's quite a delight! I was needing an afternoon snack so I walked over from my office just minutes away.

They also have other items on the menu, including Panini's and more. Service was fast. Staff was very friendly, the insight is very clean, and the vibe was just great! There was space inside for indoor seating. There's an outdoor seating area with cornhole, a water fountain, and I think there was a putting green too!

Lots of outdoor seating and calm vibes. I ordered a basic iced latte and plain croissant. The coffee was good you can def taste it unlike some other places that are pretty watered down. The croissant was nice and flaky. Service was nice, friendly, and quick which is appreciated. read more

Press & Moka is a local coffee shop located in an office complex. They have a coffee menu, pastries, food and crepe menu also. I had the latte, which is on the lighter side. I also had the croissant, which was average. I would come back to try the crepes as the crepe menu is very extensive. I just didn't have the time on this day but will make time in the future as crepes are one of my favorite foods. Casual. Indoor and outdoor seating. Good service.

I have been here about 10+ times now and finally reviewing. First service at press and moka is amazing because staff is very friendly and helpful. This place is located by a huge office and there can be a ton of people coming in and out, but it's still a great place to work. Now that said, besides service and ambiance, of course most important is the coffee and food. Let's just say press and moka have never disappointed me. I love coming back time and time again for my most famous order, a strawberry matcha and their lox bagel. Lox bagel: I have been to so many places and have ordered a lox bagel, but it's crazy that my favorite is at this small shop. Maybe it's the Persian cucumbers they add or the freshly squeezed lemon, or where they source their salmon, but sometimes when I consider not getting one, I just have tooo. It's a really awesome fast meal that entices me each time. Strawberry matcha: I am a fan of their strawberry matcha and I know they use quality matcha. That said, I am unsure where the strawberry flavor component comes from (syrup, powder). It's good and not overly sweet or concentrated so I am a fan of that, but it's definitely not a strawberry marmalade or natural strawberry. Truthfully that does not detour me, but in case that's something you prioritize the more you know:) Hope you enjoy! read more

The matcha latte was super bitter with super cheap matcha powder. I asked the staff lady if I should get iced or hot and she recommended iced, I couldn't help but think this is because iced drinks are filled with ice. The mug design was asinine as was the latte art orientation and they really don't think about helping customers make photographable experiences. The beignet was very unmemorable. The staff lady was pretty darn rude when I ordered just a beignet and matcha latte (she wanted me to order more expensive items) and didn't even acknowledge me when I came to pick up my latte when it was ready nor when I brought it back after taking a sip because it was disgustingly cheap and terrible-tasting. The vibe was only half decent because of the location in a corporate plaza area with sunshine. Just a super cheap place that skimps on just about everything except trying to hook customers on impressions that can't be substantiated. read more

Press & Moka Coffee is such a gem. The girls are incredibly sweet and genuinely welcoming. They always remember us, and they even remembered my Frenchie, Toast, after meeting him just once. That kind of care goes a long way. The coffee is always incredible, and their recommendations never miss. Even the ham egg and cheese croissant felt elevated and thoughtfully done, like a simple classic with a high end touch. The ambiance makes it even better. Inside feels like a cozy little Paris cafe with the wall art and charm, while outside there is plenty of seating to enjoy the sun or sit in the shade. There is even a small golf putt putt area that adds to the fun. It is the kind of place you want to linger at. read more

Wanted to try a new place and was really hoping to love this place but was overall disappointed. The only upside is the cute outdoor area. Got an iced vanilla latte with oat milk ($1 extra for oat milk feels criminal). The oat milk was so overpowering I couldn't even taste the espresso - $7.50 for a super lacking drink. I went back to tell them and the girl working said they recently changed their oat milk and agreed that it wasn't very good. I had them make me a different drink and got a hot mocha. It was definitely better but the ink on the cup completely rubbed off onto my hand. This place needs some serious attention to detail. Unfortunately won't be back. read more

Tucked within a business complex is Press & Moka. This coffee shop is more of a coffee stop, with some limited indoor seating and a menu with a variety of items ranging from drinks, sandwiches, crepes, and more. I found them on Yelp and really liked their outdoor seating space so my colleague and I decided to swing by and cowork here. I really liked that they had seasonal drinks to choose from, in additional to their regular menu. I opted for the Dubai coffee, which had a strong mocha taste and a weak pistachio taste. Overall the coffee was good, but lacking the pistachio to make it more Dubai chocolate-y. There's free wifi and 2 hour parking validation if you choose to park in the structure. With the wifi, you'd have to sit pretty close to the coffee house in order to connect so you're limited on how far you can sit within the outside seating. The workers here are friendly and our drinks came out pretty quick. read more

Such a hidden gem! Ranked #2 on Yelp but in our book should be #1. This was the coffee shop closest to our hotel. Validated parking for 2 hours is a deal maker. Hidden in a corporate space, surrounded by buildings they offer two parking structure options. The vibe is so calming with all the plants, palm trees and fountain. Mikaela, our baritista, was super sweet. She made our order to perfection. Her attention to detail was appreciated. A large drip coffee with heavy cream and a dash of cinnamon and a hot latte, our drink orders are nothing fancy. We went back for refills they were so darn delicious. Until next time... read more

I was excited to see they are now open on Sundays, and there was also a good crowd enjoying breakfast this morning. I tried a seasonal drink, Pumpkin cold foam chai latte. It was super good and the perfect amount of sweetness. For food I had the Espanol crepe which had avocado and jalapeños. The avocado was really fresh but the jalapeños not so much, they looked and tasted like they came from a jar and was a bit bland.

Hidden little gem tucked inside a business center! Press & Moka is a small, modern coffee spot with a cute vibe, definitely feels like a spot you'd stumble upon during your lunch break or while working in this establishment. Heads up: parking is in a structure, but they do validate inside the shop, so don't forget to get your ticket reimbursed! We tried: Iced Tiramisu Coffee - bold & coffee-forward with just a hint of sweetness. If you like your drinks on the less sweet, more bitter side (in a good way), you'll probably this. Creamychino - this one's definitely for the chocolate lovers. Mocha-based, sweeter, & super creamy. Kind of like a dessert in a cup! It had cookie crumbles on top along with the cream. Overall, a cool spot with unique drinks. Not the biggest space to hang out for hours, but perfect for a quick pick-me-up or catch-up. read more

I have given this place a shot about three different times I would never come back for my daily dose of coffee.
