    Cold brew. Great taste and vibe.

    This coffee shop exceeded my expectations. The coffee was absolutely delicious--rich, smooth, and full of flavor. The atmosphere has a great trendy vibe without feeling pretentious, making it the perfect place to relax or get some work done. What really stood out was the staff. Everyone was warm, attentive, and happy to help with recommendations. It's easy to see why this place has such a great reputation. Highly recommended!

    The Caffeine Club - Costa Mesa @the_caffeineclub.oc This is one of the coffee places I usually go to before work for a pick me up! Located in a plaza with other restaurants, this place can get pretty busy and parking may be difficult. The cafe is small and has a few seating areas inside and outside. The interior of the shop is really illustrative and decorated well, with a friendly vibe. The staff were kind and helpful. Ordered the following: Matcha Forest (shot of expresso) Strawberry Matcha My usual is the Matcha Forest! The matcha is smooth and perfectly balanced but with an additional shot of espresso that isn't overpowering. The strawberry matcha was good as well, not too sweet or earthy; neither overpowering the other. Overall, I like the selections they have and would like to try other things next time. Definitely want to try the Earl Grey Matcha next time.

    Need a pick me up before work? Stop by the Caffeine Club! There are so many options! I ordered the Mexican Mocha. It definitely helped keep me awake! The parking is pretty easy for a quick coffee trip (:

    I have been wanting to go to this coffee shop for so long but always end up going somewhere else. Finally decided to go and loved it! My dog was allowed inside and we even got a pup cup with a Bocce's in it! Coffee was really good, and it looked like a good study area. Didn't look like there was a lot of outlets tho. Croissant was okay, but still good

    I was recently out on a Saturday and decided to try a new coffee shop. The shop I located in a larger shopping center an it was a little hard to locate. The shop is cute and when we arrived there was a line. I decided to try the Einspanner Latte. The drink was pretty good. My husband opted for the Snickerdoodle Latte and he was on the fence with his drink. The stag was ok, not overly friendly or warm. Service 3.5/5 Drinks 4.5/5 Ambiance 4/5

    12/5/2025 ICED EARL GREY MATCHA LATTE I asked for whole milk. I really loved the earl grey flavor coming through! Strong flavor yet it complemented the matcha with it's floral bergamot flavor! The matcha must have had floral notes too, as it did not make a sharp distinction between the two types of tea. Loved it and would love to re-order in the future! CORTADO Haven't had a cortado in awhile, so decided to order this. Unfortunately, it did not taste as expected. The coffee tasted slightly burnt, too bitter without any steamed milk! It was not a smooth drink. I think the barista forgot the milk and gave me straight up espresso! Lol! I added some raw sugar beforehand, yet it tasted overly bitter. Would not order this again. Yes, could have asked the barista to re-make it again, but unfortunately, I was already on the road! AMBIANCE / SEATS A simple cafe. Nothing fancy. However there were a few tables and seats inside as soon as you walk in. Also, a small bench provided for those who are having their coffee to go. There is outdoor seats as well. CUSTOMER SERVICE The barista was helpful in answering my questions and she was friendly too. PARKING Inside strip mall shared with other businesses. Medium-sized parking lot. It was not difficult to find parking, especially in front of the coffee shop.

    Have stopped in a few times and have tried a few things... Number one by far is the blueberry danish!!!! Number two is cinnamon roll Number three earl grey matcha Have tried a few others and all are okay to good but these are my note worthy ones. The team is kind, helpful, and welcoming. There are a few spots to sit and study but a lot. Good drinks, great food, and decent vibes for a local little coffee shop. Also they have a phone number based rewards system.

    I tried the Caffeine Club for the first time and I got the Iced Snickerdoodle and my sister got an iced vanilla latte. The location is in a shopping center with plenty of parking surrounding it. I went on a Sunday around 3pm so a little before closing. The employees were extremely kind and greeted us warmly. There are about three small tables inside and some bar stools. When we got our drinks, i could definitely taste the cinnamon in the Snickerdoodle which was delicious and my sister really enjoyed the flavor in her drink. Their other drinks sound tasteful as well and I would definitely come back and try this place again.

    I recently visited The Caffeine Club and will definitely be coming back. It's a really cool spot to hang out, whether you're catching up with friends or just need a place to study. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, and the staff were all very friendly and helpful, which made the experience even better. I ordered the Jason Special, a simple coffee on paper, but thoughtfully executed and full of flavor. It's a great reminder that when the fundamentals are done right, simplicity stands out. f you're in the Costa Mesa area, I'd highly recommend checking this place out.

    While on vacation, I searched high and low for a truly great matcha. My usual go-to when I'm traveling is Better Buzz, so my standards are pretty high. I turned to Yelp to find a highly rated local coffee shop, and it definitely did not disappoint. I ordered the strawberry matcha with vanilla cold foam, and it was hands down one of the best matchas I've ever had. The flavor was smooth and perfectly balanced -- not too sweet, not too earthy -- and the vanilla cold foam was the perfect finishing touch. My husband ordered the salted hazelnut latte and absolutely loved it. It was rich, flavorful, and crafted just right. The ambiance was casual and comfortable, making it a great spot to relax and enjoy your drink. The baristas were friendly, welcoming, and clearly knew what they were doing. If you're ever in the area and looking for a quality coffee shop, I highly recommend The Caffeine Club. We'll definitely be back next time we're in town.

    I visited here late on a weekday afternoon, a half hour before their 4pm closing time. I ordered an Einspanner and chose a blueberry pastry from the small number of offerings still left at the end of their day. There are a couple of tables inside and a couple outside but I chose to sit at the window counter. The pastry was fresh and berry delicious (a nice surprise considering it was near closing time). The Einspanner was perfection. They serve it iced. A vanilla latte made with strong espresso (a couple shots I think) and a sweet cream on top...so good! They are known for their Einspanner and justly so - it's definitely the best one I've had. Staff were pleasant and there is plenty of parking in the plaza lot they're located in. Although they didn't swear me in, I still consider myself an official member of The Caffeine Club now.

    I am not sure if this is the same place that used to be here with a different name but I don't think it is because I loved it!! I got their einspanner latte I believe(?) and it was stunning! the espresso color and creaminess of it all wow. came right before close to grab and go and the girl that helped me out was so kind!

    Caffeine club is a club that I would happily join any day. I stop by this coffee shop and the exterior is quite impressive. The space inside is very good for hanging out and working. I ordered the Matcha espresso latte. It was delicious. The dusting of Matcha and espresso powder on top just provides an elegance to the cold foam and I love that. it was refreshing and a wonderful start to my day. The pastry case, which I did not take a picture, was a little lacking on a Thursday morning. Easy parking. Casual. Indoor and outdoor seating. Please come and create your own adventure.

It's a quick service type of spot, and you see quite a few people studying as well. Starting off, we ordered the spicy vodka rigatoni, the parmesan fries, and the poke bowl, and the cashier at the front was very nice and accommodating with recommendations and questions we had. After we ordered, we sat down and were quickly served with our strawberry lemonade and blueberry mint lemonade, which were both pretty solid a bit on the tart side. Shortly after, we were served with all the dishes we ordered. I was not expecting to like the poke bowl so much, it had tuna, avocado, rice, cucumber and veggies, and the poke was super tasty, great texture and surprisingly fresh. I loved all the textures in the bowl. Into the parmesan truffle fries, they were super hot, very crispy, loved how much parmesan was on top, but I wish it had a little more truffle as some bites tasted more like truffle than the other. It came in a super big, shareable portion which I loved. Lastly the spicy vodka rigatoni, very solid pasta, I liked how it was cooked all dente, not overcooked. Came very hot as well which I loved. It was a solid pasta, but nothing too crazy. Overall the service was great, I love how quick the service was. The ambience was lovely, you can come here to catch up with friends, or have a nice study session, or a cute date spot! The food was solid, but I would say if u come here definitely get the poke bowl! Super delicious and fresh!! Highly recommend you try this spot!

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!

The parking however, was VERY filled during this time. The line was huge for a 11:00am on a Friday morning. We were bummed that the QR code was not working on the very cute wooden signage outside the coffee shop while we were in line, which was a bummer. The Honey Oat Latte with oat milk was delicious. I am notorious for chugging my iced coffee but this was absolutely delicious. A sweet, subtle honey sweetness taste and the creamy oat milk was divine. My manager's Spanish Latte was so much better & I will be getting that next time! We bought our other coworker the Strawberry Matcha, which we did not try & we were worried after the fact because it did not look like it had strawberries in it, but she confirmed it was very tasty and tasted the strawberry! The outside seating areas in this outdoor area was very cute. Lots of fun art, the directory was creative, the CD tunnel was the coolest part! We also walked over to the breakfast burrito place as well. This seems like a nice area to come and relax and just people watch and enjoy a delicious iced latte from Nook.

    Checked this spot out since I was staying at the hotel nearby…read more.. What a neat little spot! Can almost call it a hidden gem! 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 closed my eyes for the first sip and was so happy about how smooth the foam was. The rosemary flavor came through first, then it was softened by the sweetness of the caramel. It paired very nicely with the slight orange flavor of the morning bun. I am usually a sipper but I drank it quite quickly, which is usually a good indicator that I absolutely love the drink.

Since straws were apparently behind the counter since they haven't gotten around to restocking the self-service area, I requested one for my iced latte. Those straws weren't individually wrapped, so it grossed me out when the barista handed one to me with her bare hands. It's a cute shop with minimalist, modern vibes. Barely any parking there, so we parked a block away and walked over to its little nook. They also sell a variety of roasted beans, and we liked the Pantan Sinaku Indonesia beans from Dune Coffee Roasters. If I were to come back, I'd try the Shakerato, as it seems to be consistently crowd-pleasing.

There is limited parking but the lot was mostly empty when I visited at 8am on a weekday. I was greeted with a smile upon entry and I got in a line of about 8 people. The line would whittle down rather quickly but then would go right back up to about 8, back & forth, during the entire time I was there. Only 2 gals were working but they were like a machine, taking orders and cranking out drinks in a perfectly synchronized barista ballet. I ordered a large hot Spanish latte and chose a chocolate croissant from the pastry case. I declined having the pastry warmed as the chocolate gets melty and gooey-messy all over my hands. She informed me that the latte would have 4 shots of espresso unless I wished otherwise, but I was ready for a good case of coffee jitters. The interior is very small with 6 two-tops crammed together and a window counter with 5 or so chairs. I sat at a table. The latte was perfectly made, served at immediate drinking temperature, with a great quality coffee and a cinnamon flavor that was exactly the right strength. The croissant was fresh with plenty of chocolate inside. By the time I finished it, I looked like a three-year-old; my lips were smeared with chocolate. This was an excellent pastry. I'm rarely in this area (my mechanic is a couple blocks away which is the main reason I was here) but this coffee place is definitely now on my map for a return visit in the future.
