Absolutely fresh and delicious. They make a wonderful cookie. Perfect for breakfast lunch or early dinner. Directly on the corner. Plenty of parking on side. If you call ahead they will bring it to your car. Fresh tasty I actually go there daily when Im in that Laguna area.

Worth the wait. Super tasty coffee drinks and smoothies, and we love their pastries and sweets as well. Always worth stopping by while walking through town.

I visited the area for the weekend and saw lines here every day so decided to check it out on my way out. I ordered the pastrami sandwich. Food was served warm. Meat was dry. My $6 juice order was not worth the money and I had to ask them to remake it because it tasted weird. They were pretty nice about exchanging the juice which was good, but overall the food I ordered was just ok. I wish I had known what to order because I obviously didnt get it right this go round. Obviously people like it here, I just wont go with the sandwich and juice next time. 😒

Nice place to grab some tasty breakfast burrito and bakeries.Had the potato breakfast burrito - it was very good. It’s a bit light on the salt, but it’s how I like it so I can enjoy the taste of the other ingredients in the burrito. The burrito was made to order, so it took about 15 minutes to get my order. Would have been better if they had some freshly made hot sauce to go with it.The bakeries looks delicious, especially the cinnamon roll. I didn’t try it, but I’ll definitely get it next time.The brownie was the fudgy kind that’s moist on the inside. But there maybe have been some cross contamination with the other bakeries and it had a slight orange taste.

Found it unexpectedly and loved it. Had the hamburger it was amazing with a fresh wheat bun. Everything was fresh on the burger. Chocolate chip cookie was great as well as the Mimosa to go you can mix any juice so we tried it with strawberry kiwi.. fresh chips as well.. a little $$ but worth it for a good fresh meal.. support small businesses..

Every summer I visit my aunt and in the mornings I walk from her house to main beach which is about a mile and a quarter each way. I always pick up a peach muffin from the Orange Inn and then eat it on main beach looking out over the water.These are my favorite muffins of all time. My family sometimes comes with me and they order other flavors and we have loved everyone of them.The staff is friendly and safety conscious. This year you could not go in and order, rather they had a side window open for ordering and wore masks.I suggest getting there as early as you can as lines do form and they run out of some flavors quickly.

What a great location to eat when your at the beach. The food is made fresh, the place has been around for like 100 years. The people a friendly and reliable and the food tastes great. Make sure you stop here if your in laguna beach

Delicious breakfast items. Their French toast is so good... they add a healthy amount of cinnamon and the bread is so soft and fluffy. They also make amazing banana bread, preach/ blueberry/ pumpkin muffins, croissants, and such. They make incredible fresh juice (which is what they are known for... they boast they were the first to offer fresh juices in OC), smoothies, coffee, espresso, cappuccino, etc. They also have excellent sandwiches. Grab a bite to go, walk down to the beach, and eat on the beach under the beautiful SoCal sun.

Hands down, best little cafe in Laguna. I love their Breakfast Burrito and Chili Cheese & Avocado Omelette. So fresh and tasty, and doesn’t leave you with that heavy feeling that I sometimes get from breakfast meals. The baked goods in the window always look amazing. Coffee is also great.Heads up — It gets busy so there can be a bit of a wait to get your food prepared.

Laguna has been my familys home away from home since the seventies and we have been going to the Orange inn probably for as long as theyve been open there. I just returned to Laguna after not staying there for years and its better than I remember. The food once again at Orange inn was exceptional and we love the fact that they open so early. There is a new girl working there that should be put in charge of everything because she was a doll and made up for some of the rude people who take the orders. Her name is Olivia and I hope she stays and works with the public more. The rude people should be behind the scenes cooking!!!

Review №17

Great selection of sandwiches and drinksEverything is made fresh and it’s walking distance from one of the beaches. Make sure you request the freshly made pastries/sandwiches otherwise you’ll get the ones in the display window the flies sat on.😆The other annoying thing is that they ask if you want to tip on credit card or cash in the jar which is absurd. If I’m ordering “to go” no one should ask! Who does that?

This little place open in 1971 by the owner John. I had a peach muffin which is delicious!John is so nice and the place is charming. I great selection of food and drinks including breakfast and lunch items, fresh pressed juices, alcoholic, non alcoholic beverages and of course coffee. I will definitely come back next time I’m in Laguna Beach!

If you are looking for a quick bite to eat, this is the location for you. Any time of day and type of meal. Breakfast for dinner. Whatever your feeling, there is something for you. I had the cheese quesadilla and my wife had a sandwich. Prices were reasonable and multiple selections of drinks. Will return during our stay.

Hit the morning rush, but the staff did a great job in taking orders swiftly from both the window and hand held device. Not much for vegans, but the avocado toast was really good and the coffee is outstanding. Id have given five stars had we been able to sit inside, but due to COVID indoor seating was not available. Will visit again next trip.

The food was underwhelming. The quality and taste wasnt worth the outrageous price and extremely long wait. Its asthetics.

I love Orange Inn. I’ve been going since I was little. So good, but the service right now is not good. You have to wait 10-20 min in line just to get your order that you made over the phone. You show up when the food is ready, and then wait so long that your food gets cold or soggy. Definitely need to work on how they’re doing things. Other than that, I’d give them 5 stars.

The best light roast latte. Restaurant quality food right on the street. Everything baked or cooked fresh right here. However they probably do not produce eggs and oranges right on the spot :)))

It was good... 75.00 for some eggs and french toast is a lil much tho.... ok food, average... my husbands poached egg had dry yoke... my steak omelet came out a ham omelet... eating out of a carton... i dunno, could do better at that price point. My girls had french toast and eggs, which was good.

This is one of if not the best place to get breakfast in Laguna. Clearly a spot for all the locals, and you’ll have a tough time getting a table even if you’re early. We usually just got take out and ate back at the hotel patio. Cozy little spot with great food.

The pastry and smoothies were delicious. But it seemed a bit rude for the person working at a walk-up window to ask hiw much tip we were going to leave. Its a service tip, and all she did was hand us a drink and a pastry, and take a credit card. Seemed like she was pressuring us for a tip. A bit rude

This is one of the places that makes you feel like home. The owners are like family of the customers. There food is traditional american and very well served. They make good coffee and orange juice. The decoration is surfer stile and authentic, I LOVE IT.But please dont tell anybody, this is a secret.....

A little expensive, but expected from the beach. They have breakfast items from something as small as a Danish up to full loaded breakfasts with good portion sizes. Family enjoyed: smoothies, vanilla cappuccino, BF ham omelet, cinnamon roll, cheese Danish, BBQ Chicken salad,, and spinach/cheese croissant. All tastey!

Review №43

Multiple factors played into this 3. First, its partly a communal review, since my wife was with me. Married people understand to find the great places to eat is to find the perfect place for both of you. My perspective: I got full on food I love--breakfast. I had the breakfast hamburger. We shared the Orange Inn potatoes--they were good. Knowing I would eat there again, its a 4. My wife liked the chips, disliked the banana bread and its one person at a time orders with no air in California, so, for my wife, its a 3. That means, for us, its a 3 with a strong hint of 4 on the coastal horizon. Id come again, ignore the expectations and enjoy my eggs, even after the traditional breaking the fast time has come and gone.

Great food, fun place, not much parking. We went for breakfast and it definitely starts getting busy mid-morning. It smelled like sunscreen inside, but that just fits the surf vibe. The food was delicious - I ordered a fresh pastry and my husband ordered the french toast (although I should have ordered the french toast too, that was extra delicious!). The seating is very limited and very tight as the actual structure itself isnt very big, so just be prepared for that. So besides poor parking options and tight seating, its really great! Ill definitely be back.

Not bad for breakfast, they had good coffee, and good service. Food itself was tasty, everything was around 10 bucks for a good sized plate. I had the breakfast burrito, and I was satisfied on an empty stomach. Location is nice too, real close to the beach, and easy to spot off of the 1. (:

Review №75

Great spot to grab a coffee and some delicious breakfast. Order the breakfast burger and potatoes on the side, its my personal favorite. One thing the place could do is open more windows or add some fans for some air circulation it can get really hot in there if youre eating inside. I will say this, it is a little pricey for breakfast but you get what you pay for and the food here is really good..

A Laguna Beach staple! Two days in a row great food, and a welcoming smile and service. I love when a business is always busy and the staff never gets ruffled, they just smile and give great service.

Orange Inn Cafe is a nice spot to grab a bite in Laguna. Very close to the beach and other central downtown amenities including a shuttle stop across the street for summer time parking up Laguna Canyon. Not a lot of seating area inside so consider staying clear during busier times if you prefer to sit for your meal.

Everything is fresh made here and it shows. Super tasty pastries and muffins and the breakfast burritos/sandwiches are big and savory.

THE BEST MUFFINS. Wish the paper didnt stick to the bottom but worth it. Bran Muffins..peach...bran with blueberry...orange...orange cranberry...blueberry...chocolaye chip and maybe a few more... I also had the French toast with eggs and bacon. It was amazing.They have a water cooler you can serve yourself...and offer juice in 2 sizes.Its tiny but has plenty of seating inside. And windows to look out. Opens at 530a which I love.

A local favorite. Come for the sandwiches, stay for the OI smoothie, stay longer to look at epic old photos of laguna from 100 years ago. Summer lunch can get crazy in there, so go early and be patient! Favorites include the veggie burger sandwich, albacore tuna and early morning fresh baked muffins.

Review №93

I would have rated 4 stars but reduced to 3 because I was shocked at how much plastic ware they use. Given the plastic waste issues that are now thankfully getting more publicity and awareness, and given that this is an ocean side cafe, I think they need to get serious about what they’re providing their customers with. On top of that, I didn’t see any recycling trash can, only 2 regular black bag type cans. It really saddens me and I hope they realise how much plastic waste they are adding when it could be avoided. Other than that, food was good

Was in Laguna Beach recently for a few days. Happened to be staying close to this place and hit it up for our first breakfast.Outstanding coffee and pastries (especially the croissant with spinach and cheese). I live in Seattle, so when I say the coffee was excellent, I have some good points of comparison.Wound up getting breakfast there every morning as well as nice end of the trip lunch.Food is great, service is great, vibe is SoCal hip. Love this place and next time we are in Laguna Beach, this will be a must go place.

Definitely one of the best brunch places in SoCal! Im from out of town but come to the area often to visit my girlfriend and Orange Inn is an absolute must every single time we come.I recommend grabbing the Orange Inn shake and any breakfast burrito or omelet. Youll be set. Right next to Laguna Beach as well so you can walk out and to for a nice walk there as well. Parking and seating is a bit limited but even in peak hours we never experienced any issues.
