"Okay, I’m obsessed with this place — from the cozy atmosphere, pastel blue + yellow walls, and sunlight pouring through the windows, to the cutest drinks and fall-themed designs! 💛 It’s one of those cafes that instantly makes you feel happy the second you walk in. I tried their Jasmine Milk Tea with Pumpkin Brûlée on top (seasonal fall special) and OMG it’s heavenly 😭💫 The brûléed top adds that rich caramelized flavor that melts into the milk tea perfectly, and the waffle cookie on top is chef’s kiss. The Banana Matcha Oat was another fave — it’s made with premium matcha, banana oat milk, sea salt cream, and toffee crunch. Creamy, nutty, a little salty-sweet — it’s like a cozy dessert in drink form 🍌🍵 For something light and refreshing, the Peach It Up is a total winner 🍑✨ It’s handcrafted with fresh peach, lime, mint, chia seeds, and sparkling water, topped with crystal boba — super refreshing and perfect for a sunny OC afternoon. And don’t even get me started on the Cheesy Coin Waffle 🧇 — warm, fluffy, crispy edges with melty cheese inside. So satisfying!! Plus, the vibe here? Immaculate. There are lots of tables, outlets, and even claw machines (yes, you read that right 😆). Perfect for studying, hanging out, or just rewarding yourself after a long day. I may or may not have spent $5 trying to win a derpy Bulbasaur… mission failed, but it was still fun 💚 From drinks to snacks, merch, and even games, Pengo Drink Station at Mission Viejo truly has your back! Whether you’re here to study, chill, or sip something cute, this spot totally deserves a visit. 💖"

"Tried the Ube Matcha, Oreo Matcha, and Brown Sugar Matcha — all super tasty and beautifully layered. The flavors blended perfectly, especially the ube and matcha combo which hit that sweet–earthy balance just right. And the Coin Dessert filled with matcha and chocolate? Easily one of the best desserts I’ve ever had. Warm, gooey, and ridiculously good. The space here is super chill — lots of room, outlets, and even a printer setup which makes it great for students or anyone needing a cozy study spot. Plus, they’ve got Labubus, Pokémon plushies, and Sonny Angels in claw machines, so it’s definitely a fun vibe for a date night or hanging with friends. 🧑‍💼👩‍💼 Service: Super friendly, quick, and helpful staff who made the visit even better. 📲 For more food finds and local gems, follow me on Instagram @joh.eats"

"🏡 Atmosphere: This place is located in a great corner spot! When you walk in, it's vibrant and fun! 🛎️ Service: The person that was helping us out was really nice! They were helpful even if they were just out of something. (Always have a backup people! It happens! Just be nice!) 💰 Price: This place is definitely worth the price. The quality of the drinks and the waffle is worth it. Also, little 3D printed friends are high quality! 🍲 Food: Jumbo Cheezy Waffle has a little sweetness to the waffle itself, but it complements the cheese inside the waffle. 🥤 Drinks: Creme Brulee Thai Tea: This was the perfect balance of Thai Tea and creme. It just went down so smoothly. I'd definitely call this more of a dessert drink. Would definitely order again! Strawberry Milk Tea: This has the feel of a childhood favorite strawberry milk. The fresh strawberries are a great touch to it! Deep Blue Beauty with Strawberry Popping Bubbles: This was such a fun drink. The little bit of tang from the raspberry, the chia seeds, then the hit of strawberry was great! Overall this place is so fun! Definitely go visit!"

"Ah, Pengo Drink Station: this boba shop that I’m convinced is secretly owned by a penguin—it offers high-quality drinks like lattes and milk tea in a casual but colorful ambiance and larger emphasis on amicable and memorable customer experiences! The penguin mascot is so adorable, the staff is positively friendly, and we love the wide variety and quality of our snacks and drinks !! What we ordered (with ratings): Kiwi kick with rainbow jelly : 9/10 Banana matcha oat latte with matcha cream : 10/10 Crispy panko shrimp with spicy mayo to dip : 9/10 Cheesy crocs waffles with mozzarella and ricotta : 10/10"
