    Popped into Starbucks at a great location and loved how quick everything was! Staff were super friendly, and my Caramel Macchiato came out in no time- perfect for a little pick-me-up. Definitely a spot I'd stop by again! Starbucks 101 W Imperial Hwy, Brea, CA 92821

    I love the decor in this Starbucks with some abstract art displayed. The City has a nice vibe to it and the patrons in friendly discussion. I ordered my food kept in the packaging and find I can keep a good supply for work and the weekends. I usually ask for a couple of slabs of butter, which are complementary and really add to the flavor, once toasted.

    This is one of my favorite Starbucks. The employees are always friendly and get my coffee orders out in a timely manner.

    Honey Citrus Mint Tea with loose tea floating

    So what happened was. I feel like I'm getting a cold so I go into Starbucks in the gateway shopping center in Brea around 5 PM. There's no one in there, but the worker. A tall young man with curly hair. He doesn't greet me, doesn't say hello. I accept his rudeness because I just need the tea because I don't feel good. I order a medicine ball AKA Honey Citrus Mint Tea. I go to the restroom come out. My drink is on the counter no problem. He could be dry as hell whatever I just wanna get home drink the tea and feel better. So I can get inside my house I take a swig of tea and I have a mouth full of loose tea like literally.. What exactly happened? I've been to Starbucks many times over many years. I've had this medicine ball can't even count. How many times and I've never had loose tea in my drink. Very disappointed with the young man's dryness even more disappointed with having my order messed up.

    Coffee anyone?

    Stopped in for a quick coffee and egg bites which I totally forgot to take pictures of. I like this location the parking lot is a bit ridiculous cause the cars fly through here so parkers beware lol!! The service is great friendly and mostly quick. It's not my favorite Starbucks location but it's the closest one. So I would recommend just don't love the parking lot. Have a really beautiful day :) Be kind to everyone you meet - Aloha

    Parking here is chaotic! There are too many popular businesses in this corner making it really hard to park nearby. I placed a mobile order and really liked their screen showing status of orders. Their restrooms have code due to homeless. This location has been revamped to reduce seating area inside.

    The waitress was lovely, and I made sure to leave a good tip. They have plenty of outdoor seating--it's a perfect spot to take a breather and recharge when I'm feeling worn out from driving Uber. A great place to clear your head.

    I rarely go here anymore since the remodel. 90% of the indoor seating has been removed and the close much earlier now. Starbucks has made it clear they no longer welcome customers to just hang out unless you sit outside. The atmosphere is no longer inviting. I'll just make my drink at home where I'm welcome to hang out as long as I like.

I did want the strawberry matcha, but I think the employee might have misheard me. They have coconut milk! I was happy they have more options than most places. Anyway, it's fine, because the drink is still a matcha, which was what I wanted. The matcha was extremely bitter before mixing. I almost thought it might be unsweetened, but after using a straw to stir, it tasted just right. There are books and board games here. Overall, very clean and modern look. A little worried I might not be able to sleep early today, but at least the drink is yummy! The second time, I have proof so I know for sure I asked for strawberry matcha. Will I be able to try it? Maybe they ran out, or maybe they forgot. Either way, I've been paying a little extra for it each time. It is a little busy on a Thursday morning. Croissants look great and huge, but cost about the same as a drink.The matcha itself tastes okay. However, there is too much ice in there for my liking.

I got the earl grey matcha which are two of my favorite flavors it was of course delicious. Food: They had just rolled out a new menu that includes a slice of sourdough bread and butter for 5$. I'm really working on cutting out the sweet treats (which they have plenty of) so it was perfect for me. They also have wholesome foods such as breakfast sandwiches and burritos which-- if I didn't have dinner plans after my study session-- is always appreciated as too often the food at coffee shops are sugary pastries and a bunch of empty calories. Service was friendly and personable. Communitea shows its dedication to being a warm, welcoming third-space environment. There is a shelf filled with board games and a kids play area (if you have one of those). They have assorted merchandise like coffee beans, plants, mugs, chips & snacks, etc.. There were flyers for all types of events throughout the month. I don't often write reviews I don't even live anywhere near Brea, but I would love to see this business thrive if not expand.

The bread is soft, the garlic flavor is just right, and the cream cheese filling brings everything together perfectly. Their coffee drinks are also consistently good. My personal favorite is the Smokin' Spaniard, probably because I'm a sucker for anything made with condensed milk. It's rich, smooth, and just sweet enough without being over the top. On a recent visit, I decided to try their new Pineapple Express. It was a hot day, and I was in the mood for something fruity and refreshing without any caffeine. It was decent - light and refreshing, though it didn't quite stand out as much as their coffee drinks for me. Overall, this is still one of my favorite bakeries and coffee spots. Between the delicious pastries, solid drinks, and cozy atmosphere, it's a place I find myself returning to again and again.

    Omg! I just moved to the North OC area, and I'm happy to say I've found one of my new go-to coffee…read moreshop study spots in the area! :) I'm currently studying for a big exam, and it's been surprisingly challenging finding coffee shops to study at with the beautiful, modern, aesthetic ambience that makes me happy, without feeling anxious there won't be enough seats or space when I get there, esp since I have to drive a decent amount to get to cafes. I've been getting a little stir crazy at home and finally making the trek here was so worth it-- I felt more motivated than ever to get work done with a tasty treat. I'm not sure if it's because CSUF just started this week, or because I came on a Friday morning, but it was really spacious and open with tons of outlets (almost at each table). Not sure how other days are, but I'd love to bring my study group friends here in the future, since it's so hard to find places with enough space for study groups! Not to mention the clean bathroom haha and good wifi haha The staff here is also incredibly sweet and friendly, making it a comfortable and good experience. Because it was my first time, I asked the barista about her recommendation, and she also asked my general preferences to cater to my taste, and I ended up with a seasonal Birthday Cake Americano at half sweetness (since I don't have much of a sweet tooth). It was perfect for me! I don't usually get Americanos and have a sensitive stomach rn, but it was delicious and kind on my stomach lol. I also got a ham and cheese croissant, and maybe it could've been heated up a little more, but I did wait a bit to eat it, so it was no big deal. The other barista was also so sweet in answering my many questions haha The only struggle as others have mentioned is the parking - I ended up parking at the retail parking nearby, which had plenty of spots but can get pretty pricey, and it sounds like you can park in the areas others have mentioned still (like The Hub I guess has "New Here" parking spots or the employee parking spots?), so I'll need to look more next time. But there's quite a bit around the area within walking distance, you can easily make a day out of it too. Also since it is at the first floor of an apartment in a college town, there will be students going in and out, so just be prepared for that haha -- reminded me of dorm days, and I'm glad students have a spot like this :) Overall, the yummy coffee, amazing vibe and beautiful ambiance, especially as a study spot, alongside the kind and comfortable service has been just what I've been looking for in a coffee shop around here, and I'm excited to return! Thank you New Here!

    Vanilla Thesis is the best better than probably all the rest…read moreThe coffee is so tasty Not nasty or pasty Their cheese and ham croissant is also bomb better than being made by mom One thing to note about this place, the parking sucks. But fear not, you can go into the structure, park in one of the "employee only" spots, and just tell them which spot and you're golden (wish I knew that before I came and parked across the street). Also, another reason why this place is great is that it's not full at all. Might be because of the parking situation, but the place is near empty which makes it have a nice luxury vibe. Their Vanilla Thesis drink at 50% sweet is soooo good. It's a great blend of coffee and tastes great. You can totally taste the vanilla. Their ham and cheese croissant is also great.
