Thorne Brothers Coffee
272 Broadway St, Dana Point, CA
Crema's Take
“Tucked into Dana Point's downtown, this intimate espresso-focused spot punches above its weight with creative signature drinks like their standout Mexican latte—yes, there's real paprika in it—and a notably bright, modern roast that shines in their perfectly-proportioned cappuccinos. The loft-inspired interior feels surprisingly stylish for such a small space, and the genuinely warm baristas make every visit feel like you're catching up with friends rather than ordering coffee. If you snag a seat on their outdoor bench during the cool evening hours or in their cozy interior, you'll understand why locals keep coming back as their go-to spot in the area.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks, good cold brew. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Parking available.

Great place with delicious, high-quality coffee and super friendly staff. We ordered iced lattes and loved them! The interior has a clean, stylish loft-inspired design that makes the space feel cozy and modern. Definitely recommend!❤️
Small and cute coffee store. Tried Mexican latte - it really has paprika in the coffee. I really enjoyed it. Felt so good having at the evening cool breeze time. Would return back to try other items on their menu.
Cute little shop with 9 seats for 4-5 groups of guests. They also have a bench for outdoor seating but it's not possible to sit when it's super sunny out as it gets too hot. There is a small bathroom all the way in the back for customers. They also sell hats, hoodies, roasted…
They have several parking spots a few steps down by the liquor store. What a nice place some of the friendliest baristas! Really good coffee I got the oat latte. The price is very reasonable to for five dollars. No extra charge for oat milk. Seem to have some amazing bakery…
My go to coffee spot when in the downtown Laguna area. My standard taste test is an Oat Cappuccino and their Cap hits with a brighter more modern roast and a classic cap ratio of coffee to milk. Of the coffee shops in the area, this is probably the best quality at this time…
