Great breakfast sandwich, did a pickup order but the place looked cool with a good amount of outdoor seating!

Wonderful coffee house with healthy food and drink offerings. They have a nice section of desserts and treats as well. Inside and outside seating available. Parking can sometimes be a challenge. Such a great place to hang out and relax!

Food drinks always delicious!!! But if your in a rush make sure you order ahead… it does take some time to get food, but it’s worth the wait. Staff are super friendly. The bathrooms are always well maintained. My personal favorite is the chai mix (vanilla/spice) and the lox. But… everything I have bought over the years is always been good. Street Parking is limited on the street (at the moment they are doing construction on a building across the street so they have 3-4 street parking a blocked), but there is a marking lot at the corner. Makes sure you pay for parking the bike patrol are pretty quick.

I was told to try a Newport Beach locals' hidden gem, Alta Coffe and Warehouse Roasting Cafe. It's off the beaten path of the main section of Newport Beach, so you may have been missing it all this time unless you frequent the neighborhood. So we stopped in for lunch and ordered the Chicken Pesto Sandwich and the Sunrise Breakfast Sandwich off the breakfast menu, which is served all day! Their bread is freshly-made daily, so the exterior of your sandwich may change depending on the day, and you can'tever go wrong with fresh baked bread, imo. Both were excellent, the service was fast, and the atmosphere was quaint, rustic, vintage, artsy, and unique, all at the same time. If you're a local,.you know about this place, if not, try it, it's worth the stop!

I’ve been coming to Alta for years and it never disappoints. Today we had the chai latte and the bacon cinnamon roll—both were absolute fire. The chai was perfectly spiced, creamy, and had just the right balance of sweetness. That bacon cinnamon roll was sweet, salty, gooey, and crispy all in one bite. It’s one of those things you don’t know you need until you try it. Definitely coming back for that combo!

I love walking here on weekends and enjoying the patio with a latte and a little nosh. The avocado toast with egg is generous. The workers are super friendly and the coffee is great. Love supporting small businesses in my neighborhood.

TLDR: vegetarian approved, coffee lover approved, remote worker approved (if you have a hotspot), street parking only I came to Alta Coffee to do some remote work. I had just moved back to the area but I’d only ever been here once before maybe 10 years ago on the morning of one of my birthdays. I’m so glad I decided to check it out again and do some work here. I interacted with two workers who were so sweet. I got here a little after 1 pm so it was the woman who took my order as well as another blonde woman later on who ended up being the one to check on my table. She was incredibly sweet and made me feel welcome being there. Food and drink: I got the bueno bowl with veggie sausage and no avocado as well as an iced sugar free vanilla almond milk latte. I usually only drink soy and not always a fan of almond but I couldn’t even tell. The latte was absolutely fantastic! The bowl was soooo good. It’s the perfect size for one person. I couldn’t finish it as I just eat less than the average person but if I was hungrier, I would have easily finished it. I do fully appreciate serving breakfast all day! I’m also vegetarian so I love love love they offer multiple vegetarian options on top of having vegetarian sausage as a protein option for breakfast. Atmosphere: I sat outside in the perfect spot where I could get a little sun but still see my laptop. Keep in mind, they do NOT have wifi so I couldn’t call it the ideal remote work coffee shop compared to it being more of a place to hang out and chill but I used my phone’s hotspot. Overall cell service was pretty fast so I had no problem using my hotspot. Also, it seems as if some great people frequent there. Everyone coming in seemed so friendly but it could have to do with it being 80° by the beach in January and clear skies. Parking: It’s street parking only but during the weekday, it was super easy to pull up front and have a spot. I’m not sure about the weekends. If it were busier, like a weekend day, I wouldn’t have

Finally found one of the best chai spots around ☕️ I originally came here hunting for a thick chai (which they absolutely delivered on), but a friend convinced me to try their chai and wow, no regrets at all. So good. They’ve got tons of options for both iced and hot drinks, and the space is nice too outdoor seating, restroom available, and a pretty relaxed vibe overall. The staff were friendly, though the ordering system could be a bit smoother. You can order online for pickup, which helps. A couple things to know: - Parking can be tough, especially during peak hours - Not fully wheelchair accessible (no ramp), but the curb is low enough to manage - Prices are fair for the area (let’s be real, coffee is basically $10 everywhere now) I got my chai with almond milk, caffeine-free but you can totally make it a dirty chai if you want that extra kick. Definitely recommend if you’re around Newport 👍

I’ve been coming to this coffee shop regularly, and every single visit has been amazing. The coffee is consistently delicious, and the pastries are just as good—always fresh and satisfying. What really makes this place special, though, is the people. The staff are incredibly welcoming, kind, and genuinely make you feel good the moment you walk in. Riana and Kevin, in particular, always stand out—they’re friendly, attentive, and clearly care about what they do. One of my favorite things to do is grab a coffee and pastry here in the morning and then take a walk by the beach. It’s such a peaceful, perfect way to start the day. I’ve recommended this place to so many friends, and everyone who’s gone has loved it just as much as I do. Definitely worth checking out!
