Five stars all the way. PLEASE expand this concept across the US. My first visit was after 3 pm so I had a limited food choice but picked up the Chicken Pot Pie to take home for dinner - OMG - yum! 🥧 The pot pie was sooooo good that all I could think about overnight was coming back for the breakfast burrito. So today I arrived early and went crazy and ordered the Breakfast Burrito, Smashed Potatoes and Strawberry Hibiscus tea 🌺. Five stars for all. Best smashed potatoes I’ve had in the country and in over twenty plus years (since the Rowing & Running Club restaurant at South Coast Plaza closed). Super crispy potatoes with a perfectly cooked soft buttery inside and grilled onions. I planned to eat half to take home but I couldn’t stop. The breakfast burrito arrived after I polished off the potatoes. Now I’m already stuffed but I can’t not try it, right? Again, yum - on par with my favorite breakfast burrito place in Brooklyn and maybe even better since it had all my favorite ingredients (you had my heart when I saw egg white mix) and I didn’t have to ask for a single alteration. The tortilla was perfectly grilled and it had fresh avocado, cheddar, onions, enough bacon for flavor but not so much to create too much guilt. I was ALMOST able to take home half. The portions are a nice size. You need only order either the burrito or the smashed potatoes but then again you’d miss out if you only came once. The only thing that could be added would be fresh pico but the hot sauce covered the basis. The atmosphere is great, it’s really nicely decorated in my opinion - it’s fresh. Note that you order at and pay at the cashier, they bring your food to the table but there’s no table service. It’s perfect for me as I don’t want table service when I come alone. There are plugs at every booth, a thoughtful modern touch. There is a drive through, unusual for a place with such high quality food & drink and a nice little patio with outdoor ceiling that is facing in the proper direction for nice shade midday. Kudos to the chef and those that came up with this menu and concept. If the company ever grows and IPOs, I’ll be buy the stock!

7 Leaves cafe combined with Crema Cafe? Just the killer combo. All of the drinks, varying from the House Coffee to the Herbal Tea from 7 leaves, and combining it with Truffle Mushroom Omelettes all the way through to Beef stew! The food was DELIGHTFUL, and just one bite can make your insides melt. Every bite you take, you know that the chef made it from the heart. The drinks are also AMAZING. The drinks are always refreshing, satisfying your thirst with flavor. With each sip, you can taste the freshness in the drink. The naturalness make the drink pop with flavor. The waiters and cashiers are VERY kind, helping you with almost anything you need! The atmosphere of Artisan is very peaceful and tranquil, with greenery flourishing around the building. The outdoor seating is a bonus! Umbrellas and trees provide shade in the outdoor seating, with speakers playing easy going music while you are enjoying your meal! The moment you step inside the store, an amazing aroma floats around the room, combining many different dishes and drinks! The interior of the store is a easy navigating place. Plenty of room to sit at and is an amazing place to study! The restroom are very clean, with a nice aroma around the restroom. Not a smell you usually expect to see in a restroom! I totally recommend Artisan. If you are looking for somewhere to hang out, study, or just have a good brunch, this is the place to go! It is a hidden gem barely noticeable, but once found, is an amazing treat!

Excited that a 7 Leaves and bakery collaboration is happening! We came by almost near closing and was invited in despite the sign saying drive thru only. The inside is spacious and neatly decorated, with lots of spaces to sit. The menu itself though is not anything too amazing, as the drinks are the exact same as every 7 Leaves in town (which is to be expected). We bought several croffles with vanilla cream and jam - the croffles were sitting out, but were immediately reheated upon ordering and then topped with powdered sugar. Though despite being reheated, the croffles were not piping hot, but were still crunchy, and perfectly pairs with the vanilla cream (which tasted like fresh cream) as well as the jam. We were also offered free cookies right before leaving, as it was near closing time, though I don't expect this service, and I wouldn't recommend asking. Even though we politely declined for the cookies to be reheated, the cookies were also pretty good, as they were not too overly sweet, with just the perfect amount of chocolate. I can only imagine what they would have tasted like fresh. On a side note, it seems like most of their packaging are eco friendly, which is a plus if you're concerned about the Earth and saving the planet. The staff were also quite friendly and welcoming. This entire experience alone makes me want to come back again, so I'm excited for when they officially open.

Line to order was a bit long...but I totally understand why. Great food, Great service! We picked a table self seat after ordering, and within minutes our coffees were brought out [iced house] followed by bakery items. I would say all food was in table in 10 minutes. Our group ordered pot pie [kinda small], garlic fries [mmm the smell alone], chicken sandwich [she said was amazing], egg sandwich[ which my husband was afraid would be messy, but it was actually not] and I ordered the Parisian Benedict [which I totally recommend: 2 poached eggs on toasts with bacon and a fresh spring salad] Manager was checking on everything and noticed my food wasn't out yet, he was interacting with everyone, indoor and outdoor seating, water carts for self service, and clean bathrooms. Only downside was we wanted a second drink to go and had to stand in line again couldn't order from table... so it felt cafe, but was fast food in the area[ waitress tip was to send 1 person through drive through for drink order, and bring back to our table... lol]

My friend visited me and I decided to take her to Artisan 7 Leaves & Crema Bakery for brunch and I'm so glad I did! They serve brunch items until 3PM, which is perfect if you're not an early riser. The place was already buzzing when we arrived, and by noon, almost every seat was taken. They've got outdoor seating, and with the gorgeous weather, sitting outside was super pleasant. We ordered their signature avocado toast, a fruit salad, the truffle pizza, and a cup of hot latte. The food did not disappoint and everything was fresh and flavorful. The staff are young, friendly, and full of energy, which adds to the laid-back and welcoming vibe. It's the kind of spot where you can easily spend a couple of hours chatting with friends or even getting some work done. If you're ever in the Fountain Valley area and looking for a chill brunch spot, I'd definitely recommend giving this place a try.

*Update* I preordered 20 croffles and 8 Guava danishes for pickup at 7am. They were so accommodating! I totally forgot to take pictures of them, but they were all neatly packed in a box. Loved the presentation of it! The sauces were individually packed and placed in a bag. All my colleagues loved it and asked where it’s from. None of them knew about Artisan by 7 Leaves. Thank you for the amazing customer service!! ————————— Awesome place to sit and relax while enjoying some coffee and pastry! Great atmosphere with friendly staff. Some unique pastries and breakfast item made fresh daily. What’s amazing is that they sell previous day’s leftover pastries in a bag that’s discounted. This is how you know you won’t be served leftovers, but instead be served with good quality food. I’m definitely coming back!
