Grim Garden Coffee & Plants
17065 Newland St, Huntington Beach, CA
Crema's Take
“Tucked in Huntington Beach, this plant-filled sanctuary pairs meticulously pulled espresso with lush greenery you can actually take home, creating a soothing escape that feels more like a friend's living room than a typical café. Their signature drinks and honey-forward lattes shine, and the pastries are baked with real care, making it worth the stop whether you're a local or flying through Orange County.”

If you are flying into Orange County, Grim Garden is a MUST stop!! Delicious coffee and food! The atmosphere is so soothing and feels extremely comfortable from the moment you walk in. The fish and pond are such a unique touch! Tons of plans and great photo ops!
This place is super pretty and the coffee was delicious!! I got the honey oat latte and it was amazing 😍 I also got the banana muffin and it was perfectly cooked, just how I like it. It was also served warm which is a big plus! 100% recommend! Vibes are very chill and calm.
Great coffee options with a few baked goods. This place is decorated with lots of plants that are available for purchase.
I didn’t really enjoy this coffee shop. While it was calm and quiet, the atmosphere didn’t feel particularly inviting or welcoming. I ordered an Americano with pumpkin, but it lacked flavor. I also got a turkey sandwich — it was nicely toasted and the cheese was melted, but the turkey inside was completely cold. On top of that, when you add avocado, it’s not actual avocado slices but an avocado spread that you have to apply yourself. This place definitely has potential, but it needs some tweaks to improve both the food and the overall experience.
This is hands-down, my favorite coffee shop in Orange County. I love coffee and I love plants! Will I take a plant home later? More than likely. The espresso tasted perfectly extracted, the service was extremely great, and the pastries were very delicious. I love the entire vibe in atmosphere in the shop, it’s cozy and it’s a place that I would love to come in work when I don’t feel like my home office is doing it for me. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time here and will definitely come back. If you are in Orange County or LA area, definitely make a trip you won’t be disappointed.
