Crema's Take

Nestled at the Ritz-Carlton in Dana Point, Moulin brings an authentic French café experience with pastries and bistro fare that inspire weekly visits from devoted locals. The bright, welcoming atmosphere makes it the perfect spot to start your morning with a croissant and espresso or linger before sunset, though note that this location is cozier and sometimes busier than sister cafés elsewhere.

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.
