Bodhi Leaf Coffee Traders — Restaurant in Yorba Linda

I found this coffee shop in passing while I was on the way to a clients office. I made a note to come check this place out on my Once A Week Coffee Time Out.

I waited all week to come here This being Sunday August 8 2021. I presumed they would be open at 0600 or 0630, I got there at 0615 after having Driven from Chino Hills. Not a Short drive. This place does Not open until 0700 So uncertain what to do so early I waited at a park a short distance away. At 0700 I went in ordered a Cold Brew coffee with hazelnut flavoring, in my own coffee refillable 16oz cup and to be helpful I put $4.00 in the tip bucket. It was a Very Good Coffee very smooth. It was very quiet and they had seating and tables to use. I brought in my laptop to get some unfinished work completed.

Unhappy Facts About this Place.

Their Guest wifi was difficult to connect to and very slow. I ended up connecting to my Cells 5G hot spot.

As the coffee cold brew and hazel nut was very tasteful and enjoyable. I went up to ask for a Refill. I was happy to pay for the refill, but This place charges Full Price for another order. No Cold Brew refills, none of the women was appreciative that I was a customer at all.

When I paid I made it very clear that I was tipping and made it very obvious how much I put in the tip bucket. No response no hey thank you or we appreciate that nothing no comment from the cashier.

No price discount for bringing in my own coffee cup.

This ONE Is A Huge Health No No and the Staff said Nothing At All. Two customers came in with their dogs. These were not Service dogs either just regular house pets. I ran a quick Yorba Linda Business Health Code Search. Well unless a Service Dog or Service Dog for the medically blind. No Pets are allowed in Restaurants or Coffee Shops AT ALL No Exceptions Allowed.

The Staff on hand Today do not know or do not care about City Code violations in the least. The business owner apparently just let's these employees do whatever or not.

I'll not be coming back to this place all around aside from the pleasant coffee. This was a very big disappointment. The long drive, the poor internet, that lack of realizing my contribution via big tip, and full price refill? No! Not coming back I'm going to PEETS Coffee next Sunday. There I can get a refill of whatever I ordered at half price and a discount for bringing in my...

I rarely find myself in this part of Orange County, but I'm glad I did! This place was a gem, and I'm eager to try other locations. They've got food, drinks, merch and beans for sale, plus a variety of flavored syrups to try. This location is very spacious and looks like a great place to get work done or just slow down with a delicious cup. I ordered the seasonal Flower Power Cold Brew (lavender/rose cold foam) and their breakfast burrito with sausage. I give the drink an 8/10, it was delicious, but I wanted to taste the rose/lavender more. The burrito was also delicious but a bit clunky. What gives it a 9/10 is the green sauce - it was sooo good (heavy on the garlic, so get your mints ready after)! My coworkers got the Brown Sugar latte and absolutely loved it! They ordered the hot and cold version and both gave it 11/10. I hope their other locations live up to the hype! Their other food items sound so good so I'm looking forward to...

This particular Bodhi Leaf location offers a relaxed experience. It's great for meeting up with others for conversation around a table or getting some work done. With plenty of seating at tables with chairs or bar stool level and the natural lighting from windows it gives an open feeling I enjoy when meeting up with others. Bean roasting is not at this location, so it's much more inviting to groups and conversation. The music is not too loud either.

The typical Bodhi Leaf expectiation are all there too: tasty coffee options served with care, tea (they offer darjeeling among other flavors!), clean area, and...
