Cha Redefine — Restaurant in Costa Mesa

First thing I saw was a massive line on a weekday afternoon and I told myself, ok this must be good for this to be so long on a weekday!!!! Line moved fairly quickly, but I didn't have anything to do so I didn't mind waiting. But if you're in a rush, you'll wait a little bit but trust me it's worth the wait. The menu is very unique and different and the first thing that caught my attention, or maybe second thing since the line got my immediate attention, was the Chappuccino. They even have a poster of what it is to give you an idea which was helpful for me and they also have another one that tells you how to drink certain drinks, whether it's with a straw or not. I thought that was very helpful too. I had my eye on a few drinks, but the best sellers are the ones that I was interested in. I also had to try their soft serve and to my surprise I could actually get a combination of both!!! It was perfect because I couldn't decide between the Matcha flavor or Sri Lanka. It was delicious as I expected.

Here's what I ordered from my most favorite starting at the top:

Osmanthus Oolong Cream, with vanilla foam and add boba

Sri Lanka Ceylon Cha Latte

Special Flavor Chappuccino Refreshing Peach

Coconut Latte with oat milk

Be prepared to just answer a few questions when you order: hot or cold, dairy alternative, sweetness level, and if you want to add boba and on some drinks you can choose the flavor of the foam.

This place was so yummy and you can taste the high quality. Can't wait to go again. Craving for that Osmanthus...

Drinks Worth the Hype

Tried out Cha Redefine recently after my friend hyped it up as a must-visit spot for unique drinks in Costa Mesa. And honestly? Totally get the hype! 😍 The menu here is like nothing I’ve seen before—creative combos that just scream "Instagram-worthy!"

I went for the Dirty Avocado, and wow. 🥑☕ The mix of creamy avocado and rich coffee was surprisingly smooth and balanced. Definitely not your average latte! Also had a sip of my friend’s Ceylon Latte with that pecan cream top—SO good. It’s clear they put a lot of thought into both flavor and presentation.

If you’re on the hunt for a solid tea or coffee spot, this is a gem. Perfect for catching up with friends or just treating yourself to something fun. Another big plus? The staff was super friendly and quick with recommendations. I totally see why this is becoming a hotspot for anyone looking for unique drinks in LA....
