👍👍 This is one RAD beachside coffee shop!

The coffee is strong, the muffins are tasty, the ambiance is both inviting and chill, and baristas E...

👍👍 Lovely little bakery in San Clemente with an excellent variety of delicious baked goods, drinks, and savory meal options. If you enjoy delicious pastries of all varieties, this is the place for you! We would definitely go back here!

👍👍 Adorable coffee place! The girls working here are very kind and the place is really well ventilated for indoor working. I got a vanilla oat milk latte and it was delicious. Wasn’t a fan of the banana muffin I got but that’s okay. The decorations in here were adorable, and lots of outlets for working...

The portion size was disproportionate for sure. Having lived in Brazil for years and tried tons of açaí there and in here t...

👍👍 I have been to Italy, and London, and New York and in these top places I always try to find gelato. They may not have the most number of reviews, but I have to say this is the BEST gelato I have had... I can honestly say it's better than the one in Italy. Amazing.

😠 I’ve been there at least a dozen times, and the food was never better than average, and was downright sickening until I sorted out the cause. Avoid the spinach in your omelette, as it consistently made me and my friends sick. It took me a long time to figure out what was causing our diarrhea and I f...

Gourmet brews & sandwiches served in a chill hangout with local artwork & open-mike nights.

👍👍 Really, really good coffee. The best cold brew in the tri-state area. The atmosphere gives a 1970s Midwest basement vibe.

👍👍 Great owner/chef. Great Italian food! I don’t usually go out of my way to give a review. Walked in this place tonight craving an Italian sandwich. The owner/chef greats me with “we have the best chicken parm sandwich and taramasou that you’ve ever had.” Gleaming with confidence and pride of owners...
