Tiny but cozy coffee shop where I'm able to grab a flavorful coffee or latte. The staff is friendly and gladly informs customers of the beans that were selected in making your coffee. The croffle (croissant waffle) was also tasty and is not overwhelming in sweetness. I gladly picked up a bag of beans from them so I can make my own pour overs at home. Will definitely come again to try their other roasts.

Rapport knows their coffee. They make great pour overs, refreshing cold brew, and very nice espresso drinks. The staff is friendly and very knowledgeable about coffee. I wish they had ceramic cups, their coffee deserves better than paper. Best coffee I've had in the South OC by far.

Unbelievably expensive for coffee. I can buy a 12oz bag of GOOD beans for the price of two coffees with a tip. The coffee wasn't bad but I should not have paid $8.25 for one cup. The worker was really nice so I decided why not get a cup, despite looking at the price and nearly gasping. Unfortunately I don't think I will return unless something is done about the price :(

Absolutely amazing, Worth going out of your way. Direct relationships with coffee farms. Chill vibe. The trio is a must have; consisting of a single shot of espresso, a macchiato, and finally a sparkling water with a dash of their in house made coffee fruit simple syrup. I also purchased the Costa Rica pour over (v60). Which he proudly sold as a COE winner. These guys care about coffee at every stage... from farm to cup.

The best coffee shop in OC? Well I am not a coffee drinker but my wife is a serious one and had a COE pour over, she just drink it straight and it was out of this world. I had a matcha and both the matcha (sweet) and avocado toast (savory) were great. We will definitely looking foward to come back.
