Blk Dot Coffee — Restaurant in Newport Beach

If you're a true coffee lover, you’ve got to check this place out. The coffee here is on another level—way different from Starbucks or instant stuff. Plus, it's located in the gorgeous Crystal Cove Plaza, which makes it even more special. Sure, parking can be a bit of a hassle because this spot is super popular, but it's worth it.

Inside, it's really clean and stylish, and if you prefer being outside, there are some super cozy chairs and couches surrounded by greenery, perfect for just chilling out.

Oh, and they even sell their own merch, which is pretty cool if you want to bring something home as a little souvenir.

Quick rundown of the menu:

Tons of coffee options—lattes, cappuccinos, espressos, and more. Unique stuff like matcha, chai, and turmeric lattes. A bunch of cold brews, with or without milk. Various teas, from herbal to specialty ones like jasmine and oolong. Freshly baked pastries—think croissants, muffins, cookies. Smoothies and juices made with fresh ingredients. Seasonal drinks like pumpkin spice or peppermint flavors. They’ve got almond, oat, and soy milk if you’re into alternatives.

Honestly, it’s the perfect spot if you're into high-quality coffee and just want to hang out in a chill, beautiful...

Located in the Crystal Cove shopping center, which has valet parking and practically no parking spaces on a busy, sunny day on the PCH. I've never been to a shopping center that was crammed full of people when it wasn't Christmas, but this certainly was. On top of that, I've never been to a shopping center that had valet parking! I must be poor. Anyway, we ordered Thai Iced Tea at Blk Dot and the best way to put our description of the barista was that he was...deliberate. He had to look at the instruction manual to make Thai Iced Tea. Maybe it was his first day, I don't know. But he did it well! And vegan, too, which is the only way I take it. Yay for me. Beautiful outdoor seating area. A pair of very well-dressed ladies put all their bags down near us and asked us to watch them while they went somewhere else. We weren't sure how long they assumed we'd sit there, but maybe that's how they do it in Newport Beach -- ask total strangers to watch your belongings so you can keep on shopping? Go to the bathroom? Order drinks at the cafe? We don't know where they went, but about 20 minutes later they came back, just as were getting ready to leave anyway. Newport Beach is...

Hello ,

Ordered Jasmine green tea. Cashier lady was super rude and unprofessional. I asked what types of Green tea do you have ? She never responded. I thought maybe she had bad day or maybe something wrong . Didn't repeat or said anything.

After 20min sitting there , I asked her : May I use your restroom ? Hmmm , well. I am not sure it is working. Flush is not working properly she said.

I understand that she is lying and asked other question. Because I was watching people using the restroom , everything looks fine.

I need only wash my hands . She said : Ok. And gave me the code

I checked everything inside from flush to toilet paper, everything works and everything is clean inside.

Next time I am not gonna post here feedback, will sue you guys for...
