    Lemon  Loaf yummy
    Tintin B.

    Perfect day for some amazing afternoon tea with Pacific Dessert salted caramel and lemon loaf. Totally feel so right and relaxed here in Laguna woods area. A nice clean safe place to enjoy your special moment away from the heat and drama of life. A quiet day to reflect and ponder the universe in a world of chaos. Moment like this you are made for the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf with good service and fresh atmosphere and clean restroom. Beautiful music on the radio here. Happy Wednesday everyone.

    Every time I visit my fam we hit up this Coffee Bean. We have been getting the Vanilla Dry Iced Americano with NSA vanilla & light caramel and cream- it's fantastic!! The app always has coupons so make sure to download that and sign up for their rewards program. Order on the app and pick up in drive thru is where it's at. Service is great. And they give out little pup cups for free!

    I wouldn't come here if I had seen the review. I spent $6.65 for a flat white, but I think they really give me a latte instead and keep saying it's a flat white. ITS REALLY ANNOYING. Will avoid this spot for sure!

    I love getting my coffee, bagels, and chia seeds pudding from Coffee Bean. Their app works perfectly and my orders are always ready upon arrival. The customer service is especially phenomenal at the Laguna Hills location. The kind hearted lady at the drive-thru gave both my dogs some pup cups recently. You have no idea how much it made their day and mine too. Thank you for the consistently amazing service you all provide and I am so glad to have found a new favorite place for coffee.

    I love everything about coffee bean & tea leaf! What do I love? What do I super recommend? The Tropical Passion Tea Latte! Extra Hot! That is absolutely my favorite. Everytime I order it, it always hits the spot, and is fruity, not coffee (sometimes I'm just in the mood for a hot beverage - not coffee), and it's the best. They just revamped their rewards program, so I also recommend that you download the app and start collecting rewards and get credit for your purchases! This location is cool because they have a drive-thru AND ample inside seating, along with some tables/seating outside too! It is not tremendously large inside, but enough to have some comfy chairs, plug in, get some work done, or also just meet with someone for coffee. The baristas were friendly, quick with getting our orders out, and my drinks were perfect. They ran out of one of the pastries I wanted but there were plenty others to choose from, so it wasn't an issue. Parking is also not an issue. As it is in a shopping center and plenty is available. Just be sure not to park near the drive through, juuuuuuust in case it gets backed up and if you get locked in! Will definitely be back to this location! Glad to have one in the area!

    I went there on yesterday to get my wife a drink and after tasting hers... I HAD TO GET ME ONE FOR MYSELF. The customer service was dream and that taste was extremely delicious.

    To be clear, I personally like the interior of this Coffee Bean, as it has lots of comfy chairs and is always air conditioned. But - and I think this is an industry wide thing with coffee chains these days - the service is on the slow side. Also, because of how swamped with mobile orders they are, the servers are generally unattentive. Just like the Coffee Bean on El Toro, I come here for the tasty drinks, but, I do hope Coffee Bean in general improves its customer service.

I greeted the barista cheerfully and tried to be friendly, but you would have thought I'd offended her personally. I get that everyone has off days -- maybe I reminded her of someone she didn't like -- but the customer who came in right after me was greeted with a warm smile and a cheerful "Good morning! The usual?" My thank-yous, on the other hand, were met with grunts and glares. All in all, it wasn't the best introduction to Reborn or the most pleasant way to start my day.

There has been maybe twice where the vanilla oat latte was a bit lacking on the vanilla flavor but besides that they're generally consistent and good. The app is really useful too if you're in a hurry in the mornings! I'd definitely recommend this place.

There is a vast amount of seating if you decide to sit and relax in the quiet atmosphere there. The list of offerings is short and simple. I asked for a vanilla latte but the kind barista sheepishly informed me they were out of vanilla so I opted for a honey latte. I just had lunch so, although the few pastries in the pastry case looked tempting, I passed this time. The honey latte was excellent, slightly sweet and served at a temperature that was immediately drinkable. I took it on the road this time but, as mentioned, the abundance of tables and the serene ambiance make this a great place to sit for a while and read, return emails, get some work done, contemplate the universe, or converse with a friend. I'm not often in this area but would not hesitate to stop here in the future to enjoy a coffee.

The large parking lot also made getting there easy and stress-free. The seating situation is worth noting. All seating is outdoors, though there are plenty of covered patio tables. After ordering inside, the food is brought out to your table, which was convenient. The coffee was just okay. My iced vanilla latte wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything I'd go out of my way for either. If I were stopping in for breakfast, I'd order it again, but I wouldn't make a trip specifically for the coffee. Unfortunately, the overall experience was brought down by the cleanliness of the restroom. It had a noticeable odor, and the floors were very sticky. For a restaurant and bakery, that left a less-than-great impression. Overall, the food was enjoyable and there are plenty of tempting bakery items, but between the average coffee and the condition of the restroom, this ended up being more of a middle-of-the-road experience for me than a place I'd rush back to.
