The 12 Costa Mesa
Spa and health club
👍👍 I only have great things to say about the 12! All the trainers there are honestly amazing and make class so much fun. My two personal faves are Jared and Brooke. 9:00am with Brooke quickly became a class that I never want to miss, it actually has become more of a family then workout class. It’s neve...

The Lost Bean Organic Coffee & Tea
Coffee shop
👍 Back at the lost bean coffee, this time at it's Costs Mesa store. Eventhough it's situated and tucked in an industrial zone, but it has nice and inviting appearance with ample outdoor sittings. This store does not have a kitchen (items are delivered fresh every morning) so I wasn't able to get my fa...

Donut shop
👍 Expensive but you get what you pay for! The stuff sold here are fresh. The workers gave me samples since I was new. The huckleberry and salt -butter donuts are they best sellers, which I sampled. They were both good. Huckleberry was not overwhelmingly sweet, so I could taste the dough and huckleberr...

Hola Adios Coffeeshop
Cafe
👍👍 Seems like a random placement for a cafe but it works. The barista was on point and the coffee was delicious, haven't had a better cappuccino in OC. Breakfast burritos were flavorful and tasty. Staff was friendly and helpful even though there was a rush. Place is popular so there may be a little bi...

Cafe Rose Express
Cafe
👍👍 Very nice selection of healthy meals. The price is relatively fair and I really like their "select 2" option. This place has spacious indoor and outdoor seating. The only slight thing that bothers me is that they don't have a variety of soup to choose from. It can be a hit or a miss with their soup...

Work In Progress
Coffee shop
👍👍 I love this place! It's a tiny bakery situated just off Baker Street. There's a tiny parking lot, but some of the spaces are marked as less than 10 minute parking (I can't remember the exact time). I haven't had trouble getting a space the two times I've been. Their chai latte is gorgeous and delici...

Butcher’s House Brasserie
French restaurant
😠 UPDATE 12/2/2023 - The chef on Saturday must be different or new because the food was TERRIBLE today. Soggy fries, soggy burger bun which self destructed while trying to eat it. Salad dressing had no flavor and the burger patty itself was very tough. I no longer recommend this place! Old review:...

Inside of the coffee shop the ambience was very modern and open. The temperature inside is very cool and there is Wi-Fi, so bring your laptops and come work. The...
