Crema's Take

Play Coffee Laguna Beach is a beautifully designed gem that captures the breezy, local spirit of its coastal location, with extended evening hours perfect for studying or lingering over coffee. Their creative signature drinks like the Shaken Maple—topped with orange rind and cinnamon—showcase thoughtful flavor combinations that go beyond standard coffee shop fare, and baristas consistently deliver both excellent craft and warm service. Fair warning: parking can be tricky in this charming beachside spot, but the inviting indoor and outdoor seating make it worth the search.

Play Coffee is an absolute gem! I tried three different lattes (Volcano, Shaken Maple, and Strawberry Matcha), and the Shaken Maple was my favorite. The orange rind and cinnamon topping added amazing depth, and the maple flavor was perfectly balanced without overpowering the coffee. The have so many matcha options which is perfect for the matcha connoisseur! The cardamom pastry was so good and tasted even better than it looked! The staff were super helpful in guiding me through their menu options. Great atmosphere for remote work with reliable wifi, or just relaxing with a quality drink. Highly recommend for anyone in South Orange County. Perfect spot to grab coffee before exploring Laguna Beach or walking to the water.

Very cute new spot in Laguna Beach! Love that their hours are a bit later (open til 8 pm) for people who want to do some studying after work. There’s a few tables inside & outside. Lots of different unique matcha options as well. Fast WiFi! Only downside is paid street parking. Excited to come back!

PLAY does it again! Each location has its own character and life. This shop truly feels like a Local with its beautiful design and breezy beach atmosphere. Their menu features the well loved coffee creations of PLAY’s other locations with the addition of a new espresso menu unique to Laguna. As always they are fully stocked on the most unique and carefully curated coffee beans from around the world. If you are looking for a delicious coffee this shop is a must.
