auria coffee — Restaurant in Buena Park

I'm slowly cafe hopping again, and I saw this new coffee shop all over socials, so I was really excited to visit.

Tip: Card ONLY! No cash accepted!

Parking: They're located in a corner with limited parking spots. There's constant people coming n going, so finding a spot can be a hit or miss.

Ambiance/Environment: They have a spacious area with plenty of indoor seating. Very clean and modern inside. Love the open windows and brightness. Perfect to get some work done as they do provide complimentary WiFi. They also have a shared seating outside with Hiro Ramen.

Service: I didn't catch anyone's name, but everyone was nice! The baristas were quick & efficient.

Drinks & Desserts:

1. Cream Top Biscoff Latte (easy ice) - This is one of their popular drinks, and I could tell why! I love anything cookie butter, and this tasted amazing. Not overly sweet either.

2. Dirty Matcha Latte (medium roast, easy ice) - This came with the option of dark, medium, and light roast espresso. I chose the medium roast since it's the strongest in terms of bitterness. The matcha tasted premium. The layers were aesthetically pleasing.

3. Black Sesame Latte (hot) - The baristas did a cute latte art. The black sesame flavor was bitter sweet.

4. Dubai Chocolate Croffle - This can be overwhelming for one person lol. The croffle was cooked well. There was a generous amount of chocolate and pistachio drizzle. There was a scoop of knafeh in the middle. The chocolate did overpower the pistachio, which I didn't mind because I'm not a pistachio person lol.

5. Honey Butter Sticks w/ strawberry cream - These were bigger than I thought! Perfect for a quick breakfast! The honey butter sticks were fluffy. The strawberry cream was thickkk.

Pricing: Prices are pretty average now. A bit on the higher end. I'd say it's worth it to treat oneself every...

A Hidden Gem with Flavors That Shine – 5 Stars

I stumbled upon this incredible coffee shop and was absolutely blown away by the entire experience. From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed by a warm and cozy atmosphere — chic yet relaxed, with thoughtfully curated decor that balances modern elegance and comfort. The music was just right — upbeat but never overpowering — making it an ideal spot to catch up with friends or enjoy a quiet moment with a book. The spacious patio is a total bonus, perfect for sunny days and casual hangs.

Now onto the stars of the show — the drinks and desserts.

I tried the Peach Oolong, Biscoff Latte with a Cream Top, and a Double Matcha Latte — and I’m still dreaming about them. The Peach Oolong was fragrant and refreshing with a subtle floral sweetness that lingered beautifully. The Biscoff Latte? Absolutely divine — rich, cozy, and perfectly complemented by the velvety cream top. And the Double Matcha Latte was a matcha lover’s dream — earthy, creamy, and so satisfying.

For desserts, I indulged in the Dubai Chocolate Croffle, Strawberry Matcha Croffle, and Honey Butter Sticks with Matcha Cream. Each bite was decadent yet balanced — the croffles had the perfect crisp-to-chew ratio with generous toppings that didn’t overwhelm. The Honey Butter Sticks were addictive — crisp, buttery, and dipped in a luscious matcha cream that I could eat by the spoonful.

To top it all off, the service was flawless — attentive, friendly, and genuinely passionate about the menu. The staff made me feel like a regular from the start.

This place is an absolute must-visit. Whether you’re a coffee aficionado, a dessert lover, or just looking for a cozy, welcoming spot to unwind — this coffee shop delivers...

We recently checked out Auria Coffee in Buena Park, and absolutely hooked! This place is a must-visit for matcha fans and dessert lovers alike.

I started with the Double Matcha Latte, which was incredibly creamy with the perfect nutty finish. Next up was the Banana Cream Top Matcha Latte -- light, sweet banana flavor that paired surprisingly well with the matcha. The Strawberry Latte was another favorite, with just the right splash of strawberry milk and coffee. And the Corn Latte? Definitely unexpected, but the roasted corn flavor was so real and comforting! The cream tops on all the drinks were an added bonus -- thick, smooth, and perfectly sweet, making each sip even better.

For dessert, we had the Dubai Chocolate Croffle (flaky, rich, and chocolatey) and the Honey Brick Toast with matcha and strawberry cream -- both were absolutely delicious and perfect to share. The creams were probably the same ones used for the cream top lattes, so they were perfect pairing for the toast as well.

I really loved my experience at Auria Coffee. The café is super popular, but there's plenty of indoor seating and a cute outdoor patio. It's the perfect spot to hang out with friends and enjoy some amazing drinks and treats. Plus, the service is amazing! I'll...
