I like that this location stands alone and doesn’t share any walls with any other establishments. It also has a drive-thru which is a huge plus for me. I have 2 toddlers, and getting out of the car with 2 toddlers for a coffee is unfortunately too much work & not worth the battle. The crew here is very friendly. Super welcoming, and seem happy to be at work.

Love their teas and bagels, just wish service was quicker in the drive thru because even if there aren’t more than two cars I still have to wait a good amount of time to get my morning tea.

A mellow spot with a great setup for studying or getting work done. The big table has outlets setup beneath it which is very convenient. I had a house coffee on ice, I thought it was pretty good. Staff is friendly and it looks like they do a good job taking care of the place.

Everything is good except for the WiFi is poor. I’ve been to half of them in oc and they all have poor WiFi, it’s obviously intentional.

I love this location. The service is amazing. I usually go through the drive-thru but I’ve never been disappointed. It also helped that I would randomly receive free coffee! They know how to keep me happy.

Quality of drinks depends on who makes it. I went multiple times, and I always order the same thing. Ice blended Caramel with whipped cream. One time they don’t put enough caramel in the cup which makes the drink awesomee. One time they forgot to put whipped cream in it. I like to add a shot or ask for affogato but I’m always paranoid that they forget to add the extra shot of espresso to the drink. I took a trip to San Jose and I love Dutch Bros. Would really love Dutch Bros to come down to So Cal because those ice blended drinks are awesome and have espresso shots in the blended drinks Anyway, the Air Condition at Coffee Bean is way too cold. The music playing is really loud. This is not a place to study. There are a lot of chairs and tables to sit at. But the employees working always keep banging stuff, washing dishes, whatever they are doing to prepare customers’ drinks.

The associates are always friendly and helpful folks :^) Environment: good music, spacious, MANY outlets, not too cold like other coffee shops, clean restroom/patio/living room(?) Wifi: good and average(when there are many people present) Drinks: always yummy and to my expectations It’s only a bad session here when loud guests or homeless come in here, but that’s not the store’s fault so I gave them a 5 stars. –Biweekly regular hehe

I been here multiple of times, and i keep coming back because it is close to my house. i enjoy the chairs and tables here as well. there is this amazing long study table with outlets underneath. The place is clean and not as crowded as Starbucks. Downside: Some of the employees are extremely loud, you can hear about their life stories. Ugh, i wish they were more professional. Not all the employees know how to make drinks! I had one employee gave me a hot tea when i purchased a macha green tea lattee. It burned my hand because the cups were so thin… doubling the cup would had been nice or a lawsuit in the making? The worst offender is the wifi! The wifi here sucks and the employees dont do anything about it! I hate coming here. sometimes.

This was my first time trying a Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf. I really needed some coffee to get my motor started… Their coffee is strong and not too sweet, which is what I like. They are WAY better than Starbucks! ‘m so glad I tried it. I honestly couldn’t decide what to get; I ended up getting the iced caramel coffee :-)

New location, easy to get to, easy parking. CBTL never lets me down and the staff here exceeded my expectations. Inside is probably the nicest of all CBTL I have been to. All the employees were incredibly nice, efficient and all smiles. Will definitely be back and will tell everyone I know to come here!

I am a HUGE fan of Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf and so when I saw this location pop up close to my friend’s house(and with a drive thru!!), I was pretty ecstatic. I’ve been here several times and haven’t been disappointed in the slightest. I’ve ordered their pear tea, passion fruit tea, and their hazelnut frapps. The teas I ordered in store and they came out super quick. Tasted great and the staff was very friendly when I was choosing between which drinks I wanted. Got the hazelnut frapp in the drive thru and again, very quick service and very friendly service overall. The hazelnut frapp was super delicious and just how I wanted it to be. To be honest, I’m really glad they still have hazelnut frapps because I can go here now that Starbucks has stopped doing hazelnut syrup in all the locations I go to! Inside, the décor and tables are really nice! Great study spot and very nice and quiet. Because it is new, it’s not quite as crowded as the other ones I’ve been to which is awesome for me. Plenty of parking in the plaza this CBTL is connected to and if not, you can always hit the drive thru which I find very convenient. :) Overall, staff is great. Location is great. Drive thru is great. I’ll definitely be back! :)

If your going to charge a ridiculous amount for a cup of coffee make sure it’s perfect. This place has weak watered down coffee. I’m always finding coffee grinds in my cup. Milk and creamer jugs are smelly and probably never washed. 7 – 11 has more options for coffee than this store.

Really slow drive thru and walk-in. Staff talk too much about their personal stuff. Take care of customers first.

Decided to stop at coffee bean and ordered a iced mocha coffee and was excited for my drink but when I sipped it I was totally disappointed because it was so strong I feel like it wasn’t well done… But since I drove away before trying it I could not go back … Literally the iced coffee at Carl’s Jr. Tastes better than the one I got… Maybe the girl did it wrong but to pay almost $ 5 for a coffee that sucks makes it worse… hopefully next time it will be better.

It’s a brand new location so I loved studying here! There’s a decent amount of indoor and outdoor seating and plenty of outlets as well. The drinks themselves are above average compared to other Coffee Beans, but you can get substitutes like soy or almond milk in your hot drinks! Also, get your drink in a glass if you plan on staying there! The employees are really nice, too, and the drive-through is convenient. Definitely my new favorite Coffee Bean!

Great place to study! It’s also a drive through so not many people go inside to order. There’s barely any distractions and the employees are really friendly! There’s plenty of tables and also seats outside

Finally! A drive-thru Coffee Bean in the area! It is conveniently placed on the corner of Harbor and Edinger. Also, I don’t know why, but the service here is better and the vanilla lattes are up to par as well!

Brand new location and close to my pad, I’m enjoying the quick and easy fix to my daily coffee/tea run. They also have a drive-thru window, which is unlike other CBTL locations that I have encountered. Friendly staff is a plus! I’m on an ice blended drink binge this summer :9 Loving that Oreos cookie and crème ice blended drink!

Great CBTL. Brand new store with a drive-thru! Tons of indoor and outdoor seating and parking. Not a bad spot to relax or get some work done!
