What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"L&L was just ok for me. Feels like a copy/paste type of coffee shop, where they took ideas from competitors and tried to implement the concept as their own. I won't name who I feel they are trying to emulate, but IYKYK. It just fell flat, felt stale. There's no soul if you will. The actual coffee shop itself is a giant warehouse, that's catering to people who are students & want to sit in uncomfortable chairs and study. The immediate area when you walk in and wait in line to order is OK with the long wooden table that's common space... but the other spots were very sparse and just uncomfortable. Since the ceilings are really high, it didn't seem like they had any type of noise insulation either. Feels like they slapped the place together with the bare minimum amount of money, to them charge really high prices for trending drinks. I ordered the avocado toast, it was so mediocre, bland, and the avocado itself had a bit of a taste to it that made it almost sour, & I did not enjoy it at all. My friend ordered the burrito, the tater tots were pretty much still frozen, and the burrito itself was cold. So the food in general was just not good. I ordered an almond milk latte, and it was fine, you can't really mess that up. I noticed trash cans overflowing, dirty counters & the space just didn't feel clean to me. People working there we're just keeping to themselves and doing their job. I'm sure other people enjoy going there, but I personally will not be returning. There's several other places I'd rather spend my money and have a really lovely experience. I spent $40 bucks for coffee and food that was completely mediocre."
"Awesome little hidden gem here in Costa Mesa, Ca. The reason I came to know about it is because this shop is very involved with different kinds of donations. The non-profit organization that I work in had an event on a Saturday morning. This coffee was donated 1 carafe plus creamers and other items! This is the 2nd year in a row of them being able and willing to bless us with their products! Rosie (Owner) and Erica (Staff) were our points of contact. Very welcoming and very kind. The coffee was very good as well. Lots of very positive comments during from our staff and from the participants. Thank you so much for your support and kindness!"
"Nestled in a Church building surrounded by a commercial center, I came across this coffee shop. Where I enjoyed a Strawberry Latte, which is part of their summer menu. Good tasting coffee and the service was swift. The shop was very busy, like a starbucks. But they have a lot of room and seats to accommodate."
"Never seen so much seating at a coffee shop before. Really kind and social staff. Excellent iced oat latte! Pretty good chocolate croissant and they will warm it up for you. It’s a bit dark inside for work but very generous with WiFi and space."
"Hidden down a little street in an enormous warehouse, you can spot Lion & Lambs by the mural on the wall. There are two ways to enter, either the big entrance that has a kind of workspace feel, or the main entrance on the side of the mural. The coffee shop itself provides ample room to sit and hang, but even then it still fills up over the weekend. I tried their specialty drinks, smores and I wanna say gingerbread. The coffee to both drinks was a bit strong , slightly overpowered the taste . I’d have to say the s’mores came out better just cause of the chocolate flavor."
"Friendly, welcoming, ambiance quality of service. I would highly recommend swinging by and having a delicious cup of BREW.."
