Come with me to try the super popular New York transplant Gregorys Coffee. This is their first location ever on the West Coast.I had only seen this place in TV shows so I was so excited to finally get the chance to try their specialty drinks, like this Iced cherry blossom that had all these pretty layers and tasted so delicious, and the Purple Rain smoothie which is right up my alley with its 21 grams of protein.Also picked up some of their delicious bites, my favorite is the Crunchy power bite with the chia seeds on top, and the Vegan chia seed croissant, and what's crazy is that almost all of these are vegan or gluten-free too!Thanks for reading! ^-^

This coffee stand is located in the food court at The Shops At Mission Viejo, thankfully replacing a Starbucks and serving GOOD coffee rather than the crap served by the former tenant. I stopped by on a recent weekday morning. I had finished dashing around the mall and was on my way home so ordered a salted caramel cold brew to take on the road.The perky women behind the counter quickly had my order ready and I was on my way.The coffee itself had a bold taste. I could tell it was a quality coffee bean roast. The salty caramel was evident but didn't overshadow the coffee, just sweetened it slightly. I caught both the saltiness and caramel flavors; they weren't lost behind the coffee.Although I've only had this single drink I can tell this place is meant for true coffee aficionados.

Gregorys is in the food court of the Shops at Mission Viejo (the Mission Viejo Mall) in the same spot Starbucks used to occupy. I'm hoping Gregorys makes it because the baked good I tried from them outshines those from other coffeehouses and well, Starbucks*. Their customer service was lovely; the employee had a warm and helpful attitude. I could tell he wanted us to have a good time, enjoy our drinks, and the blueberry muffin I ordered. It wasn't the kind of coffeehouse where you're treated abruptly if you're not a regular. I said yes when he asked if I wanted the blueberry muffin toasted. Having it toasted was a great choice as the muffin was obviously fresh with good flavor and the right amount of moisture. What I ordered to drink was the Nu Brew which featured a combo of Nutella with handcrafted cold brew and milk. The taste of Nutella is subtle, but I did like the drink because it didn't feel dehydrating. I think going here whilst at the Shops at Mission Viejo (the Mission Viejo Mall) is convenient and something I want to try again. Go to their website to see what they have - it's quite a lot and seems to have something for everyone.*The comment about Starbucks baked goods arises from my memories of the 90's. During those years, there were some excellent blueberry scones. It isn't like that now.

Gregory's replaced Starbucks in The Shops at Mission Viejo. Looks exactly the same as it used to and carries very similar products. Typical mall coffee shop vibe - nothing fancy. Staff were friendly and coffee was fine - not amazing, but not bad.

I went out for errands with my husband over the weekend and forgot my water bottle. I was feeling a little dehydrated so while at the mall, we walked by the food court. Gregorys Coffee replaced the Starbucks here and has a splashy little setup. They are a chain from New York. Unfortunately, I can't do caffeine in the afternoons so I opted for one of the refresher drinks. I ordered the pineapple ginger drink. It was a light drink with mid-level sweetness. I didn't taste too much pineapple or ginger. It was also pricey for the size I ordered. It did help with my thirst though. Will I be back? It remains to be seen. If I'm around when coffee is a must, then maybe.

I am so happy that Gregorys replaced the Starbucks that was formerly in the Shops at Mission Viejo since I do not like Starbucks.What I don't like.. a hot tea with milk is almost $6.. That's a little hard to bear when eBar charges just under $4 downstairs. That being said, like eBar, they do have a good tea selection. I appreciate that you can order through the app. I also appreciate that this past week they had a promotion running and my tea was comparatively priced with eBar. The ordering through the app is key -- especially if you are on a timed break/in a rush. I've only used the app once (previously, when I tried to you couldn't add milk to a beverage, but that has been rectified), but it was a great ordering experience.I was recently on the East Coast and noticed a ton of Gregorys, so I'm happy to see they've landed here in SoCal. 2024: 42/100

Matcha Latte (hot & iced) - 5/5 : both were great! Customer Service - 5/5 : highly recommend coming here! My SIL had the hot matcha and it just didn't quite hit the spot for her so I went back and asked if they could add a little extra matcha. The girls working today (I wish I got their names) were absolutely just the best! They didn't make me feel weird or outlandish for asking. They actually insisted on making a new one so the drink would be hot and not lukewarm from just adding matcha. They truly were the two sweetest and kindest people we encountered today.

Gregorys is located in the Mission Mall food court, replaced the prior Starbucks. Staff were very welcoming. I had the Banana Breeze which tasted great. Service and staff were very friendly. Ambiance and decor was the usual coffee vibe.

I was never really a coffee drinker and never thought I would start liking coffee. Gregorys Coffee took over what used to be Starbucks inside the food courts of Mission Viejo Mall and honestly Starbucks doesnt even compare to Gregorys. The coffee here is so good, I think I'm starting to understand coffee. The coffee always tastes so freshly made. Their cold brew concoctions were what drew me in at first. I have to admit I was a little put off how the cold brews were premade in a pitcher but honestly it doesnt even matter because you end up mixing your drink anyways. The salted caramel cold brew is phenomenal, my favorite pick me up before work. But their new cold brew the Blue Dream is even better in my opinion. It's on the sweeter side but not at all too sweet and you have a clear taste of the coffee. The staff/baristas are just as amazing as their coffee. Every barista that I've encountered/experienced always has a smile on their faces and they talk so kindly. I need to learn their names so I can give the proper credit. The more I come here the more I love with their coffee. I did some research on Gregorys bc I wanted to know why and how their coffee is so good, I learned that it was founded in Manhattan, New York. I just so happen to be going to New York before discovering this piece of information so it would definitely complete my experience with Gregorys and I'll be a true gregular
