Pandor Artisan Bakery and Café
1126 Irvine Ave, Newport Beach, CA
Crema's Take
“This Newport Beach gem blends French café charm with California warmth, where barista Ayah crafts thoughtful coffee alongside an impressive pastry program—their made-to-order tarts like the 4 Seasons are Instagram-worthy and worth planning ahead for. The welcoming crew (Lucy, Sam, and Albert are regulars' favorites) keeps the vibe genuinely friendly despite occasional kitchen timing hiccups, making it worth the drive for anyone craving authentic baked goods and honest espresso in a genuinely distinctive space.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

Great service, nice atmosphere and a good price. Staff is great and the big guy in the picture gives the place a personality, it is worth the drive from Tustin even though there is a Pandor a mere 3 minute walk from my house (see my last review). I highly recommend this place
Nice place and a close resemblance to a Cafe in france. Nice friendly staff, clean, professional and prompt. Our food was served hot, the drip coffee was delicious. We had Classic Benedict and Vegie Omelette. The Eomeo&Juliet's Crep was awesome, although it could have used…
