Seven Seas Roasting Co.
21 Vantis Dr, Dana Point, CA
Crema's Take
“This cozy Dana Point roaster strikes that sweet spot between serious coffee craftsmanship and approachable neighborhood charm, with creative signature drinks like their Chaga and Golden Lantern that go well beyond the espresso basics. The vibe is genuinely welcoming—a quick-grab kind of place with a small but thoughtful setup that feels more like discovering a local gem than hitting a chain, complete with pastries and a staff that clearly cares about both their coffee and their customers. Whether you're stopping by for a perfectly pulled cortado or one of their inventive specialty creations, it's the kind of spot that makes people return whenever they're in town.”

Great service but the coffee was eerily similar to Starbucks. I appreciate good coffee and their foam and style was mediocre at best. A dry cappuccino should be light and the foam should be creamy. Very reminiscent of Starbucks or big chain. Great clothing though. I may be a coffee snob but good coffee and well made cappuccinos and cortados shouknt be difficult.
Small shop, limited seating inside and a few seats outside. More of a pickup and go type place. Good coffee and specialty drinks - chaga and golden lantern either iced or hot are good. Haven’t tried their food but looks good.
Very cool little coffee spot in Aliso Viejo. The drinks are amazing, atmosphere is cool and the service is great. It’s my mom’s favorite and we stop here every time she’s in town.
I own a coffee roaster company so I like to visit shops whenever I travel; this is one of my favorite shops. Love the staff and the coffee and baked goods are top notch. I recommend the Cortado ♥️👍🏽👏🏽 5⭐️
We often look for new hikes to do and were in the area. Along with that we like to find unique coffee shops not just your typical chains. Found this place thought we check it out… also great it’s veteran owned and ran. Thank you for making this county such a blessing to live in. Driving in it kinda looked like this super modern industrial area and we discovered that this place is unique… It’s kind of a main street lined with palm trees and a walkway with businesses on the main level and possibly apartments above… right across the street from this coffee shop is a huge concrete parking structure… Absolutely perfect to park your car in the shade and away from door dents. I would consider this a destination coffee visit if you’re cruising around in your classic car. It was a Saturday mid day when we were there and the area is super quaint and quiet… they should start a Cars and coffee on Saturday mornings right down this main street… It would be awesome!! Being there for the first time, the staff was incredibly friendly and patient with us, helping us choose what to get. We got something called a cherry bomb, which has a double shot of espresso and a hint of cherry flavor, slight hint of mocha, but not overpowering… It was a very unique drink and iced was very refreshing. As far as indoor seating area, there’s only two small tables, but hey… This is Califonia. There was all sorts of seating outside and across the street in the sort of a office complex with tables and additional seating. We walked up and down the main street looking at some of the businesses and just enjoying the moment… If you are a local in this area, you should certainly visit Seven Seas and make it your regular coffee shop… If you’re looking for a cool place to cruise to on a coffee date we would highly recommend it! And classic car guys… You gotta check this place out if you like coffee.
