Bear Coast Coffee

Quick service, friendly crew, great view of the pier. Overall excellent place for a great cup of coffee. Food is great too. Not really a place to linger however.
My recommendation, go early. Due to it's awesomeness, the place fills up.

Don’t buy coffee beans from here. They were far too roasted (burnt) and oily. I ground them just before brewing a cup, and the coffee was still awful and bitter.

In store orders taste good though. Staff is very friendly.

Quaint coffee shop directly across from the pier- spend your morning on the patio with some fantastic cold brew and great people watching!

First time visit. Had an iced coffee with a shot of espresso and my lady had an iced latte. Both were excellent, pricing was not out of line. I recommend Bear Coast.

the lavender caramel latte is a MUST TRY. their muffins and scones etc. are so worth it. staff is super nice too. if you’re in the area i definitely suggest!!

I just can't quite get into this place like other neighbors are. Coffee is OK, I drink basic black coffee and they do OK.
$9 breakfast burrito was bland and still cold in the middle from being warmed up in microwave out of freezer. Nine dollars for a cold bland burrito, you read that right.
Avocado toast looked great but had some sort of strange flavor that I did not care for, kind of a bread and butter pickle or something that had no business on an egg and avocado dish IMO. This was my taste buds and not execution of the dish though.
Wife's latte was delicious (according to her, I didn't taste) and looked fantastic.
If you are looking for a coffee based drink and a nice spot to enjoy it this would be worth a stop. If you are looking for coffee I'd pick another shop.

Great, great coffee. I bought two bags of beans there and I'd definitely purchase again. It's a bit of a drive for me, but if I'm in San Clemente again, this will be my coffee go-to.

Central location and actually very good food. Super crowded, had to wait about 25 min but the sandwich and pastry+ sitting in this nice area were worth it

Awesome crew and awesome coffee. Cute little hip coffee shop right across from the pier.

Great coffee in San Clemente! Good service and friendly people.
