Green Tea Crme Frappuccino Blended Crme (TikTok: @justandyvu)
Andy V.

1. The drink tasted just as delicious as the ones made at other Starbucks! 2. The spot has fun productive vibes with a significant amount of seatings (inside and outside)! 3. The staff were friendly and quick with my order! Note: There is a small parking lot with a time limit of 1 hr! Photo: Green Tea Crme Frappuccino Blended Crme

Great service even on a busy morning they had a local MS event that was next door to them. All the local PD was there and more customers so I was super happy that my London fog came out with great flavor and not watered down! They had the mobile order ready pretty soon there after arriving but it usually does take a little longer for steeping for the tea and the lavender cold foam. When they make it right though I must admit it sets me up for the perfect day!!! Overall this store is great and pretty spacious I would totally recommend this location.

I've been at this Starbucks location handful of times. I got some early mornings here in Costa Mesa and this is where I've gone to get my Starbucks. The parking lot situation can be a little bit confusing because there's different driveways. The plaza has a separate parking entrance than the big corporate office parking. So it can be a little confusing. Overall, with all the hotels and different office buildings in the area, it does get fairly busy. I was able to place a mobile order to be able to not necessarily have to wait in line. It seems like a lot of people own weren't using the mobile ordering and opting to wait in line. Everything was what I expected it to be here at this store. Nothing out of the ordinary happened. The staff was very friendly and the drinks were great. Be sure to download the Starbucks app to accumulate Stars and to be able to place mobile orders.

Coffee Traveler,

Was in need of my daily dose of coffee. My order was taken by Andrew. Excellent customer service by him and the entire staff. Everyone is very nice and friendly. Highly recommend this location.

Never been disappointed here. All the baristas are nice, and no matter the time or the day, they are always smiling and making the best possible coffee for you. I recommend to order ahead with the app. Gets pretty busy in this location.

Interesting stuff here...gourmet  chewing gum?!

Happy to have a Starbucks walking distance from home. The staff is just as friendly, if not friendlier than other locations. The batista even remembered my name and my order after only a few visits! There is a nice patio that we usually use since it can get stuffy inside. The patio is supposed to be smoke free but sometimes there is a smoker. Note to them: please stop, the smoke spreads, sitting one table away from someone doesn't make you in the clear. For a small Starbucks, it is very crowded due to all the hotels which are also in walking distance, so expect a line, especially during peak morning hours, both on weekends and weekdays. It's in a nice plaza as well so if you like to enjoy a coffee right after lunch you are in luck!

This location is closed for an unknown reason since 1/8/22. My guess is Covid. Maybe everyone is out sick. Will update once reopened.

I've now been to both The Nook in Costa Mesa and Torrance and I can confidently say... I get the…read morehype. At the Costa Mesa location, parking was a little tricky at first, but after circling we got lucky with a corner spot. The location itself is SO cute! It's right next to colorful barrel fountains, and on a sunny day it honestly felt like the perfect coffee outing. The line was pretty long and you are standing in direct sun, so just keep that in mind, but the service was quick and efficient once you order. Inside, it's small but really charming, with Sunny Angels hidden around and a very open, friendly vibe. My sister (who is basically a professional coffee drinker at this point ) got the matcha and said it was her favorite, which says a lot. I got the iced Spanish latte with oat milk, and it was SO good. Spanish lattes are my go-to, and this one had the perfect hint of cinnamon without being overly sweet. Even as the ice melted, it still tasted great, which is rare. The Torrance location was just as good! Parking was easier, the space is bigger, and the service was still super friendly and fast. My husband got the cold brew "Nook way" and finished it in like 10 minutes. He said it tasted like Golden Grahams cereal. Highly recommend both locations and especially the Spanish latte. Definitely worth the visit!

There's a handful of different pastries available but would recommend arriving earlier if you have your eye on something specific.

It is so good but I never finish it haha because it is big. Totally worth to try. They have large tables which are perfect to host coworking sessions or just to come and work. I think I've only had like a small instance where the internet got a little slow but other than that this is a pleasant spot to visit. You can also rent a study/conference room from the church. I sent a message before because I needed a spot to do my final oral exam virtually. There is a small fee but unfortunately no one got back to me. There is a QR code that takes you to a site where you fill out a form to request the space. Now, these requests are handled specifically by the church not the coffee spot. Although it is in the same area. The staff is super friendly. The restrooms are always clean. Handicap friendly. Not necessarily kid friendly because a lot of people come here to study and work, and its also all concrete and hazards for the small ones, but I have seen people do like babies on strollers type of gathering.

It was very minimalist in design and didn't seem to comfortable. They specialize in match and espresso drinks. I went with a pistachio latte and my friend went with a cookie butter latte. Pistachio latte ($7.75) - I enjoyed the strong and bold taste of the espresso used, it tasted smooth and was rich and aromatic. The pistachio flavoring was good, I wish there was a bit more as the espresso overpowered it a bit. My friend said his cookie butter latte ($7.50) was perfect, and the cashier had mentioned that those are their 2 most popular drinks. Overall we enjoyed our drinks. The seating area could be improved to be more comfortable and inviting. They didn't really have anything to eat except for some waffles which didn't look fresh in the display case.

The restaurant is located in a cute area with office building and gorgeous western courtyard that you can take your meal to go and eat out in or on their patio. I am a matcha lover.

The milk to matcha ratio was on point and was just the right level of warmer to sooth the soul, and not burn your mouth. Add on the beautiful design and you have a lovely way to start any day. I ordered the delux avocado toast which came with a hard boiled egg, bacon and arugula on top. It incredible was fresh tasting. It would have used a bit of black pepper and salt but over all delicious.

Despite being relatively close to two major colleges - OCC and UCI - this place wasn't as crowded as you'd imagine it would be. They serve coffee, matcha, breakfast foods like breakfast burritos, protein bowls, avocado toasts - but I didn't pick anything to eat since I already had lunch. I shared with the barista that it was my first time here, and he asked what type of drink I was looking for. I told him something iced and caffeinated - and he mentioned his favorite was the Honey Cinnamon Latte - which I opted for - iced, with oat milk. Total was $8.50 including tip. My iced Honey Cinnamon Latte was yummy, creamy, and fantastic! With the oat milk substitute, it sorta tasted like Cinnamon Toast Crunch in liquid coffee form. It wasn't overly sweet, definitely had a nice kick to it - love this recommendation by the barista! I checked out the rest of the space and used their restroom to wash my hands - it's really a neat space here. Lots of seating. Lots of space. There's an adjacent room that's connected to the cafe called "Flow Space" - which is utilized for small popups and arts & crafts. Neat spot for smaller community members to showcase their wares. Some of the other reviews mentioned no a/c - which had me worried considering we were having a bit of a heatwave lately - but to my pleasant surprise, A/C was on and cold! It was a great escape from the heat. Free wifi - fast enough for a zoom call if you need to hop into one - my speedtest reported download speeds of 17.5MB/s Restroom is clean and well maintained. Plenty of parking - of course, I stopped by a little after 2pm, so already avoiding the tail end of the lunch rush. Only downside is they close kinda early - 4pm - but open up at 7am. Great spot! Will probably be my go-to considering there's ample workspace, plenty of parking, less crowded than other coffee spots in the immediate area. I'm curious to try their matcha the next time I'm here, as well as possibly their breakfast burritos, since photos for that looks delicious.

I was driving from Newport to Huntington Beach and came across this location in Costa Mesa. The store is a little hidden from the main road and not very spacious. But the drinks and customer service were great as always. I went in wanting to try something new, but defaulted as always to my longtime favorite Ice Mint Mojito. Phil Jaber founded Philz Coffee in 2003 and spent years experimenting with various coffee beans from around the world to create over 30 different unique blends. Each "cup of love" is custom made in front of you and finished off with their signature mint leave. The Philz baristas make sure your drink is to your liking before you pay. One thing that is unique about Phiz is that they don't do lattes or cappuccinos. The Mint Mojito Iced Coffee is their best seller and still my personal favorite. I ended grabbing one and a bag of coffee beans before hitting the road to my next destination.
