Rekindle Coffee

Cute coffee shop on Orange. I stopped by to get an iced vanilla latte and I got a blueberry scone warmed up. It was so tasty. The scone tasted real fresh! The iced vanilla latte was good. It's always my go to if I have never been to a shop before. The service was good. Greeted at the door and my drink and pastry came out quick. They had cute Halloween decor that my baby loved and a lot of parking available.

Came in this morning to try Rekindle coffee because it had been recommended to me. I placed an online order and when I got there, that's when the problems began. The person with red hair at the front counter was leaving bagels out that were ready. I had ordered 3 bagels and guess how many bagels were in the bag they were putting in the pickup section? You guessed it, 3 bagels. You wanna know what happened next? She proceeded to tell me the bagels weren't mine, then asked me how I placed my order, to which I told her "online", and they, presumably to rub salt in the wound, said they weren't mine not once, but 2 more times. MIND YOU, there was only one other couple inside the coffee shop who already received their order so it wasn't like there was any sort of rush, the coffee shop was empty... like no foot traffic. We had to go look at the drinks because ofc they didn't announce when the drinks were ready which, even starbucks does don't pmo. As we went to collect our drinks, guess what? The bagels were still there, no one had come to pick them up, and would you like to know why? BECAUSE THOSE WERE MY BAGELS. The 3 bagels I ordered were the same bagels that were sitting out for over 20 minutes while I was waiting for my drinks. I was told not once, not twice, but 3 whole times that those were not my bagels, when, in the end, they actually were my bagels. Now the food and drinks: I got iced lattes and bagels and the bagels, on top of already being cold, were also flattened to like loaf bread consistency, the cream cheese was alright, its cream cheese you can't really mess that up. The coffee was alright but not worth the almost $8 price tag. i did not tip as you can imagine...

Terrible service. Came down to see what all the type was on this spot only for the cashier to say they can't sell the pastries to me because if she did that would mean she'd need to bake more. Then when I asked "so you only sell the Halloween pastries on Saturday?" She responded that no they sell everyday but if she sold more today she would need to bake more tomorrow and she doesn't want to.I've never experienced something so lazy in my life. As a last attempt I said "is it because you don't have enough?" And she then stated "no, we have a lot already baked in the back but I'm just not selling more today."I will never come back, nor will I EVER recommend anyone to this place.Worst customer service ever and a complete waste of a trip.

Recently visited to try the Halloween drinks and pastries. It was busy in there on Halloween day but even then the service was quick! I REALLY loved my pumpkin pastry. It's officially my favorite treat there. I love that the pastries are baked fresh and are aesthetically pleasing.The decorations in the cafe were perfect for the holiday and I noticed they get really into the season.

4.5 star! Great location for this coffee shop with an expansive regular beverage list plus rotational seasonal options. Many meal options and tons of pastries on display as soon as you walk in. Easy parking right on front. I absolutely love they decorate for the holidays (currently Halloween) which adds a nice element to the small store. There is limited seating available.I wish Yelp had 1/2 star options cuz this place is truly grate overall. 2 for 2 on drinks, with pumpkin latte being my favorite. The food items on the board are all the same price. For a bagel sandwich or anything sizable and takes some preparation, prices are fair. My 1/2 star deduction is for the oatmeal. It is a decent size portion with minimal toppings. I ordered to go and requested toppings packed separately (see pic). At $12.95...so not worth it!! It was also a thicker, stickier variety. I prefer it a little more moist and fluffy.All in all, great spot!

I'm not sure if it's because they were laboring on Labor Day, but the girl at the counter did not smile once during our party of 4's ordering. Breakfast was $60 and all we had were bagels and toppings, plus lattes. They write the latte in the middle of the cup which is covered by the sleeve. I innocently ask which of the lattes was the chai and she was irritated when she showed me after pulling down the sleeve. Umm ok, didn't think to do that. Usually you would write it close to the top? Fine, we are all about supporting small businesses, but there were some pretty glaring things that stood out.Tiny cups for water, so we literally had to get up 3x to have them refilled by the only worker behind the counter. I started sipping mine like a cocktail to try and avoid a 4th refill. Never get the vegan bagel. My friend could barely bite unto it and tearing it with her fingers got avocado schmear all over her. She gave up halfway; what a waste.My egg, bacon and cheese on sourdough was pretty tasty, with not a green in sight.My other two tablenates ordered traditional bagels and cream cheese, with the everything bagel with sausage and cheese being a 7 out of 10. She dissected it and left half the bagel behind.The parking is fine and it's close to major crosstreets. It's just not a coffee shop that I will choose due to the lack of friendly workers, not easily accessible basics like water (in almost Dixie like cups), and average breakfast for not a great value.

The matcha tea I got was only filled up 3/4 of the way.. for $6.50 I would think it'd at least be full. And no they didn't just give me a bigger size cup for a smaller drink. The matcha itself is ok. Not the best or worst I've had.

I'm not sure what it was, but this was hands down the best breakfast sandwich I've ever had. It was an everything cheddar cheese sandwich packed with bacon, cheddar cheese, and egg. Every bite was perfection.I've also never been to a coffee shop that offers pistachio milk, and since I love pistachio, I had to try their cinnamon apple pistachio milk latte with 50% sweetness. Let's just say I downed it in 60 seconds--absolutely delicious.One thing that stood out, though, was the service. One of the cashiers was pretty unfriendly, but fortunately, she went to wash dishes, and the other cashier took over, making the experience much more pleasant.Also, I believe under the California Retail Food Code, establishments that serve food with on-site dining are required to have restrooms for customers, and this place didn't have that.Even so, I'll definitely be back to try their pastries and the witch's brew coffee next time!

Not sure if it was an off morning but I was disappointed after trying this place. Stars were for the cute fall vibes inside and plethora of baked pastries. Otherwise we ordered an iced Franken-Matcha with oat milk (matcha with chocolate drizzle, sweet cream foam, and white chocolate syrup and I was expecting this to be sweet but it was just very subtle flavors; which was disappointing) and a black Cold Brew (which according to my bf was just watery coffee) After tip, both drinks - size small- came out to $16!!! My bf was bummed to have spent so much on such disappointing drinks, which we won't be finishing. I don't really have a comment on the service becuase we just had our order taken and that was it.

Cute decor, cozy ambiance. Romantic rose latte comes with pistachio milk! Located in small old town in Tustin
