Emendare is the one and only coffee shop on the small campus of Concordia University in Irvine. Emendare is a great place to go to watch tv during your breaks, hang out with friends in the ac with a Starbucks drink in your hand, or quickly do homework right before class starts. Staff consists of students, service is there, IMPORTANT: they CLOSE during chapel time which is 10:30 — 11:00 except on Wednesdays. Around lunch time, expect the premade sandwiches and salads to disappear. Parfaits will be gone as well. They have small snacks such as fruit cups & celery with peanut butter as a quick to go. Variety of snacks are in here, decent amount of tables and chairs. If you do not have«flex» dollars which is money that is placed on your student ID, you will be charged tax! So to all my commuters, it’s a bummer. It’d be nice if Emendare had mixed up their items once in awhile.
