Best Coffee Shops In Orange County

I love finding and exploring new coffee shops in Orange County! Who doesn’t love enjoying a hot cup of coffee, flat white, Vietnamese coffee, iced coffee, or a delicious cappuccino? Seriously, it’s the best way to start my day! It’s also really amazing to find a cute coffee shop that has great indoor seating or outdoor seating, and of course it’s a plus when they also have good food.

So for all my fellow coffee lovers out there, if you’re looking for coffee shops in Orange County where you can pick up a hot or cold coffee drink, here are the best coffee shops in Orange County!

Vanilla Street Bakery & Coffee

A great coffee shop in Orange County to get some delicious coffee and sweet pastries! This is a super cute and intimate bakery, and one of the things I love about this coffee house is that it replaced an old coffee shop that used to exist in Laguna Hills. The new family owners have done a fantastic job designing the store!

If you’re looking for a European-style bakery, this is the perfect spot for you to grab coffee and catch up with friends! I highly recommend trying their honey cake. It has an excellent cream in between the layers, and is packed full of flavor with brown sugar and cinnamon. I am also a fan of the croissant rolls with custard, macarons, eclairs (the pistachio eclairs are the best), and the roll cake. They are are all so good and worth a try!

Now for what the coffee lovers are here for, the lattes and espressos are also fantastic! Plus, its really easy to find parking here. It’s seriously one of the best coffee shops in Laguna Hills! So, if you happen to be in the area, I definitely recommend visiting this coffee shop. It’s a great place to meet friends or a small group of people.

Wall Writers Coffee

Wall Writers Coffee is a coffee shop that is tucked away in an office park in Irvine. This hot coffee spot has excellent coffee, as well as fantastic pastries. The aesthetic here is truly beautiful with its high ceilings, and it also has a great open outdoor seating area to enjoy your cold drinks or specialty drinks on warm days.

Some of my favorite coffees are the matcha latte, salted caramel latte, or the pistachio latte. So if you’re trying to get your coffee dose for the day, I definitely recommend trying one of those options!

When it comes to the food menu, the avocado toast, guava Danish, and quiches are excellent. If you happen to be in Irvine, I absolutely think you should try out this hidden gem. It has great coffee, great pastries, and a great atmosphere. You can’t go wrong!

Maison Cafe & Market

I truly love this coffee shop in Dana Point. Definitely one of the best coffee shops in Orange County! It has excellent coffee and the food here is absolutely amazing. If I had to pick a favorite place to grab coffee and brunch, this is high on my list. Every single time I’ve been to this coffee shop, I have loved everything I’ve tried at Maison Cafe.

If you’re hungry, I recommend the baby Dutch, scrambled egg and homemade sausage, the frittata, the warm morning bun with mascarpone cream, or the avocado toast. All are amazing! And if you still have room, the danishes or morning buns are also really good choices.

When it comes to coffee, the cappuccino and lattes are all great choices to have with your delicious pastry or meal. On a busy day, it can be hard to find parking in the area, but its for sure worth the wait. And since its near the ocean, its a great place to hang out while you’re waiting to be seated. If you are in the mood for lunch they serve great food as well. The Coq Au Vin, hummus plate, and beef bourguignon are great as well. The beef in the beef bourguignon is so soft and tender and the chicken in the Coq Au Vin is perfect. The crispy skin and juicy chicken. You can’t beat it!
