I have discovered that I cannot drink anything but fresh-roasted coffee, so Kean Coffee is a godsend for me. They roast all of their coffee right there in the shop. Most coffee is over-roasted, and for those of us who have sensitive stomachs, that spells trouble. When I drink the coffee at Kean I feel great. I also love the ambience and the lively atmosphere. I also love the latte art (it really does make it taste better!) and their specialty espresso drinks are sooooo good, I find myself craving them at the oddest times. Kean Coffee is a real coffeehouse with real coffee (they also sell the beans that they roast), not a big chain or a wannabe place. At the busy times it can be hard to get a table, but this is my favorite coffeehouse in OC, hands down.

Perhaps one of the best places in the area to go for breakfast, enjoy a fairly quiet meal and a cup of coffee, all in an atmosphere that's cute, quaint and tucked from the hustle of the surrounding Newport Peninsula. This place feels much more small-town that its surroundings, located in one of the old shipping districts, with a small but warm interior and very inviting outdoor patio. Every time I go to breakfast, it turns into a 2 hour affair, with time to just sit and talk with friends or that special someone. As a breakfast burrito connoisseur, I give a big thumbs up to Alta's version! There isn't anything bad on the menu...and the buckwheat pancakes absolutely take the cake if you need your dose of flapjacks. I know they serve lunch and maybe dinner but I've yet to try it out, but I can't imagine the food being bad. Service is generally good unless the place is really crowded, and it can get that way at times. Definitely worth going to!

The coffee served at Peet's is quite simply my favorite, so my review may be slightly biased in that respect. It's dark, rich, complex coffee--definitely not for those who seek the mild blends that they offer at Starbucks. Also, there are always free samples available: teas, organic coffee, pastries, candies, etc.
The small size of this particular Peet's is made up for by the tables and benches located just outside. On a sunny day, you can sit at one of the shaded tables with a cup of coffee and a friend and enjoy watching all the ritzy Newport types saunter about. A lot of people like to bring their dogs here, so sometimes there's some exciting canine interaction. There is also a nice water fountain that, at certain times of the year, is inhabited by a beautiful mallard duck.
The only bad things I can think of are that it can definitely get crowded here, especially in the mornings; and since this Peet's is not that big to begin with, it becomes a madhouse once the line grows longer than 5 people. Also, the pastries are noticeably more expensive than other Peet's I've been to, but such price hikes are characteristic of Newport Beach.
