My husband, sister, & I decided to have lunch here on a Sunday afternoon. We ordered the bulgogi, turkey pesto, & ham and cheese paninis. They were all delicious and we truly enjoyed each bite! For drinks, we got the Strawberry Iced Matcha and Ocean Lemonade. The ocean was very refreshing especially on this warm day. The strawberry matcha was delicious & not too sweet. We loved the ambiance of the cafe with its cute interior and spacious seating outside. Can't wait to return soon to try all the other food! :) read more

The Classic Cafe - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Fullerton, California

What a gem! I was meeting up with my dealer (coffee beans) and he suggested this place since he would be in the area. I'm less than a mile away and didn't know this place existed! They are just north of downtown Fullerton off Harbor and in an old house. It's super cute and Americana on the outside and inside they serve great coffee and Korean and American food. I ordered the salted caramel coffee and one of their mini croissants with strawberry cream and sat outside on the back porch to enjoy it. If you need to get away and feel like you're in someone's old country house, stop by here and stay a while. I saw people working from here and honestly it's a great place to stay and take in all the ambiance. I found parking on the street but there is parking out back. read more

This place has been on my list for WHILE so I finally decided to go try it out! The latte was soo good! Just the caffeine kick I needed, but not overpowering! This is a good drink for anyone with a sweet tooth. The dduk boo-ki was also very filling considering how much they give you. I loved the ambience so much that I went again with my friend to try their bulgogi bowl/cup. What really sells me is the quaint, homey environment! There's lots of seating (inside and outside) with chill study music for you to stay productive! The workers are also really kind and the overall service is great since they make sure to get your order to you in a quick manner! read more

One of my favorite coffee shops! The food and drinks here are amazing & I love that it's consistent in quality. I usually get their salty toffy & occasionally the regular size cupbaps but even the regular size is a pretty big portion for me. The service here is great, too. Very friendly & welcoming. The last time I came, they remembered my order & gave me cookies on the house. So sweet of them The set up is not like other coffee shops. I love that it's very unique . A lot of seating inside & even more outside. I see a lot of people studying but I never have trouble finding a table! read more

okaayyyyy... why did it take me soooooo long to visit the classic cafe! this is such a cozy, quaint, vintage cafe! there is decor everywhere, every corner you turn, there is something to admire there was ofc a small line on saturday, close to noon i only ordered drinks this visit. but will def be coming back to try out some food items plus to try other drinks! the classic cafe has so many curated drinks on their menu that it was tough narrowing down which which one to get i ordered the salty toffy latte and the salted caramel latte einspanner the wait was a bit longer, it seemed like everyone ordered a coffee or tea or lemonade with their food order. it was nice to watch each drink being made, everyone seemed to order different drinks the service was great and friendly i also wanted to try their popular triangle gimbap but sadly, they replaced it with cupbap they have a huge outdoor patio with tons of seating indoor also has plenty of seating, but on the wknds, you may have to wait for a table the salty toffee latte ended up being my fave out of the two, but both were very tasty! plus: there are dog friendly. they even have treats for your furbaby parking: i parked on the street, but i think there in a parking lot in the back. read more

Super cute spot, I really enjoyed it, they're a bit expensive but worth it. The sandwiches are so delicious and filling, so was the coffee! I loved their banana options. My friend and I sat here for five hours yapping away, saw many people come in and out during that time. Quick attentive service while ordering and quick to pick up any finished dishes at your table. read more

Cute spot with good drinks. Had their muffin, but I should've tried their bowls! Looked delicious. Will come back to study sometime Had different table sizes for different sized groups, and their outside area was lovely and decorated all whimsical. Loved it read more

I've gotten drinks here for my girlfriend and I several times and it's always been very good. Their hojicha with matcha foam top was a hit for me and their banana nut muffin was surprisingly good too. Nice spot to check out if you need a place to chat or study, lots of seating and a unique garden vibe outdoors that you don't find at many cafes. read more

This has definitely become my top spot for coffee and studying after class. The coffee is delicious, especially the salty toffee. I always love a sweet and salty combo so this one was the perfect choice for me. The cupbap is a nice touch as well, the kimchi tuna was to die for. The ambience of the entire cafe is unlike any cafe I have ever seen. The old timey vibe that you immediately get upon entering is so cozy! It feels like I am walking into my grandmas home. There is also always plenty of seating space as there are so many tables inside and outside. The service is always top notch as well, everyone has always been very friendly and always open to helping when choosing the best item to order. I was hesistant to post this as I wanted to keep this place a secret for myself but it is truly amazing and the owner's deserve the recognition! read more

I'm sitting here finishing up my Minions Latte & finished my share of my mom's Cheese Dduk Bok-Ki and I can say that I am very pleased. Everything was delicious. Our drinks came out fast and ladies behind the counter were very nice and friendly. Vibe inside is cozy and homey. Lighting is perfect for studying, working or catching up with friends/family. Music played in the background was also spot on ~ Didn't get a chance to explore the back of this cafe, but I will next time. read more

Would only say go here for the ambience. The food might be good but the drinks were not good at all. The pistachio latte was very sweet and for some reason had a slight black pepper taste in it. I had my friend try it at as well to confirm. Staff was nice and friendly read more

This little hidden gem is nestled inside what looks like a vintage cottage, and it's adorable! From the moment you walk up, you're greeted by a beautiful garden full of flowers. It seriously feels like something out of a storybook. The vibe is super peaceful and cozy, making it a great spot to study, catch up with friends, or just relax with a drink. I came here with my parents, and we only tried the drinks this time around. I got a matcha and they had lattes. To be honest, the drinks weren't anything game changing. Pretty standard, but they definitely hit the spot and gave us the caffeine boost we needed. The real highlight of this place is the ambiance. It's such a cute and relaxing environment with plenty of seating both indoors and out. I was really impressed by how well-kept and charming everything was. We didn't get a chance to try the food, but it looked amazing from what we saw being brought to other tables. I'll definitely be coming back to try it out next time! read more

Came here for lunch to get out for a little bit. Was nice to have lunch with my bff she picked me up, and she thought of The Classic since they have both delicious coffee and lunch. I don't remember them having Ttkeokpoki but I was so excited because I was craving it for a while and it was perfect amount of mozzarella cheese and the rice cakes were perfectly cooked and chewy, the fish cakes were tasty I ate the whole thing lol. This time around I wanted to try The Minion Latte it tastes like banana so good, it's almost frothy which is nice so the ice gets covered with the cream they use it's delicious! The blue dream latte I remember was also yummy and pleasing to the eyes all the drinks are. My friend she got the turkey pesto panini but I think the bulgogi one is a little better she let me try it. The whole ambiance and the way they decorate it with all the little details and antique looking decor is so inviting I really enjoy it here, it makes you feel like your in grandma's house with all the nick nacks I love it. The owners remembered us from last time they are so friendly thank you guys so much for fantastic service and delicious food. They even remembered my last review thank you so much :) Recommend trying this place it was really busy when we came in almost every cute little table surrounding the adorable cafe was taken! Have a beautiful day thank you :) Aloha read more

Im such a picky eater and everything i got was top tier! Grabbed lunch to-go for myself and nana. The turkey pesto and cupbop with chicken and we shared the pistachio latte. Omgg the flavors in the cupbop so good and the chicken wasnt dry and super flavorful and my nana loved the turkey pesto right amount of turkey ratio. The latte was so milky and buttery from the pistachios. Just amazing food overall. At first the service was mid. I felt a bit unwelcomed at first, but i dont want to judge. So im thinking it was an off day. After the young lady started talking to me she was super friendly and helpful. Also super hard to find at first, kind of hidden. Its past the community center on the right. Parking in the back :) read more

I was seeing several of my Yelp friends come to this place and giving good reviews so I decided to stop for a bite to eat one day while running an errand in Fullerton. As I pulled up to park on the street in front of this house-turned-coffee cafe I realized a few years ago, when I worked relatively close, I used to come here quite often as it used to be called Veronese Gallery Cafe. Remembering they had parking in the rear I decided to go down the alley and park in back where there are half a dozen spots. It looked the same as I remembered with some changes. The outdoor garden is still gorgeous. The new owners cleaned it up and made it look less rustic and cutified everything. The water elements were not functioning while I was there; maybe no longer? The interior has antique chairs and decor. As Yelper Les S. says, it "looks more like an old English tea house than a coffee house." Looking over the menu I noted there are many Korean inspired selections now. I placed my order at the counter for a Salty Toffy Latte which is one of the house specialties and only comes iced. Just wanting a basic sandwich, I also ordered a turkey pesto panini. The fellow who took my order was somewhat terse and standoffish. He seemed more friendly with other customers so maybe he was just having a stressful moment while I was ordering. Ah well. I decided to sit outside at one of the many tables around the garden as it was a beautiful sunny day. About ten minutes later my order was brought to my table. The nice woman who brought my order told me to make sure I stirred the salted toffy latte before drinking to get full enjoyment. Copied and pasted description of this drink from their menu: double shot of espresso+house-made/hm caramel sauce+milk+hm caramel cream+cookie crumble+pinch of salt. This was an amazingly delicious latte, sweet with both toffee and coffee flavors dancing on my taste buds. The panini consisted of ciabatta bread with turkey, provolone, mozzarella, lettuce, tomato, and pesto. It was good, no complaints, but nothing amazing. I sat and just enjoyed my surroundings for several minutes after finishing. This is the sort of place you come to for the atmosphere. A perfect place to meet a friend or a special someone. read more

This is such a pretty cafe. The ambience is garden/cottage core, with tea pots and cherub statues within a variety of plants. There's outdoor and inside seating. I got the salty toffy latte suggested by the barista, I was not disappointed! Definitely come with friends they have a variety of games that we played while enjoying our breakfast and coffee. read more

The ambiance is great, the service & menus seem to have improved. My only problem with them is that they open too late for a coffee place.

Ordered 2 spicy pork cupbaps and was so pleased and full by the end! A definite must try item if you don't know what to order. Their pistachio latte is really smooth and has actual pistachio bits sprinkled in too. A little pricy at $7.5 but would recommend. Service is great as you are greeted at the register and given a buzzer when your order is ready for pick up. You have to try and eat/drink your items on site because this cafe is literally someone's home transformed into a cute earthy cafe. Soft background music like Louis capaldi is playing outside on the patio so it adds to the comfy vibes. read more

This place looks more like an old English tea house than a coffee house. Decor isn't really my style, but has a very cozy, tranquil vibe. Inside is spacious and has decent amount of seating, but outside is way better, especially when the weather is good. It's the perfect setting to sip some coffee and have conversation with good friends and family on a Sunday afternoon. I tried its most popular drink, Salty Toffy Latte. It was a bit on the sweet side, but I still thought it was excellent. It's actually the best tasting toffee latte I ever had. It has espresso, salted toffee sauce, milk, caramel cream foam, and Biscoff cookie crumble. I finished the drink way too fast and wanted more after. Hojicha Einspanner (non coffee drink) was excellent as well. The house made cream top really made this drink stand out. Just wish it came in a bigger size. All einspanner drinks are only available in 12 oz. Service was non-existent. Owners just didn't look welcoming. They looked somewhat grumpy and overworked. I was initially going to drop a star because of it, but giving some slack since day light savings just began and the place was quite busy at the time. There's a very small parking lot behind the building, but probably best to just do street parking. read more

This place is my favorite ambience cafe in the Downtown Fullerton area, I really enjoy the homey antique aesthetic that really just feels comfortable and gets you to just enjoy the environment. It can get relatively busy but is very open and has plenty of space to get work done. Plenty of outlets, wifi, and work space. Being a great place to get work done it also has great hot coffee and the Bulgogi Cupbap is really good. The workers and the owner are super nice and helpful, you feel accommodated and I always enjoy going here to get work done or to simply enjoy an ambient space to read. read more

It's street parking, but there is a library parking nearby where it's a walkable distance to the cafe. They have indoor and outdoor seating available. I ordered the Minions Latte, which is their homemade banana syrup. At the first couple of sips, I could taste the banana syrup, but after a while, I couldn't taste the flavor anymore and could only taste the coffee. Overall, it was a good coffee drink to try.

A Hidden Gem in Fullerton! I was invited to The Classic Café by a close friend who knew I'd fall in love with this place and he was absolutely right! Tucked away in a beautifully preserved 1913 craftsman home, this café feels like stepping into a charming time capsule. Every corner is filled with antique treasures, warm wood, and whimsical touches that make you want to linger. The backyard, side yard, and front yard are classically decorated with ample space and beautifully decorated. We started with a classic iced coffee for him and a London Fog with oat milk for me and it was so good I had to order a second! I couldn't resist pairing it with a heavenly slice of pecan pie, which was rich, nutty, and perfectly sweet. To top things off, I tried their Sapphire Tea-Ade an iced organic hibiscus blend that was refreshing and absolutely outstanding. The outdoor seating is just as magical as the inside, with hidden garden nooks, fairy lights, and cozy spots perfect for conversation. The staff here are friendly, welcoming, and clearly take pride in making your visit special. If you're looking for more than just coffee and treats they also serve a variety of yummy sandwiches. This hidden gem is perfect for meeting friends, enjoying a quiet solo moment, or even working on your laptop. I left with a happy heart, a full stomach, and a new favorite coffee spot in Fullerton. read more
