Huskins Coffee
229 Marine Ave, Laguna Beach, CA
Crema's Take
“Huskins Coffee on Balboa Island roasts its own beans locally at a Santa Ana roastery and crafts housemade syrups that give their lattes a distinctly natural, subtle flavor profile—think lavender and hazelnut that taste elegant rather than artificial. The cozy shop strikes a welcoming balance between serious espresso craft and a relaxed gathering spot, with personable service and a nostalgic touch courtesy of an vintage coffee roasting machine on display.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks, with a pour-over program, good cold brew. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Family friendly.

Cute coffee shop in Balboa Island! Tried their lavender and hazelnut lattes! The flavors taste natural, not artificial. Perfect for people who like mild coffee. Friendly staff and cozy space. Free street parking near the beach, but it gets busy!
