Coffee Code
7855 La Palma Ave Ste 6, Fullerton, CA
Crema's Take
“This Fullerton independent spot earns genuine love for its thoughtfully crafted espresso drinks, with reviewers raving about unexpected complexity—like fruity, bitter notes in their caramel lattes and rich, comforting hojicha preparations that go beyond the typical chain offering. The shop cultivates a calm, tranquil atmosphere paired with fresh bakery items, though consistency with specialty drinks and staff warmth can be a bit uneven. When they get it right, it's a rare find that reminds you why seeking out neighborhood coffee shops is worth it.”

I tried the hojicha latte and the café latte at Coffee Code, and both were absolutely delicious. The hojicha latte had a rich, roasted flavor that was smooth and comforting, while the café latte was perfectly balanced and creamy. I really enjoyed both drinks and would definitely come back again!
I used to always come here, but this Tuesday, when I was here, the baristas was very unwelcoming. No smile and looks like she’s annoyed with me even though all I did was order my drink. I decided not to give any tips due to the poor service and when I saw the note on the paying machine, “we know,” all I thought was: do you know you have poor customer service skills? The coffee is great but I hope the service can match the quality of the drinks there.
staff was friendly, but the strawberry matcha I ordered is just….white ? 🙁 never seen this color before — couldn’t taste any matcha and felt like I paid $7 for a cup of milk. there were also uncut huge blocks of ice, so there werent that much liquid to start
I left my expectations to be met, but when I took the first sip, I was surprised! I ordered a caramel latte, and the espresso had a beautiful bitter and "fruity" note! It's a rare find in smaller coffee shops. And the blueberry muffin was amazing, super moist and delicious. The coffee and muffin were an elite combo.
A great coffee shop serving flavorful and bold cups of coffee with a side of tranquility. Serves what seems fresh bakery items that pair well with the coffee that is offered. A much calmer and relaxing environment than other franchised coffee shops. The location offers a great view to enjoy sunrise. The coffee cake was delicious. Prices are no different than any other coffee shop. Yet it I felt much better patronizing this store as it feels like a true small business.
