Kéan Coffee Artisan Roasters- Newport Beach

Kéan Coffee absolutely nailed it. I was in town for a short visit and ended up going both days because it was that good. Huge shoutout to Elliott at the Newport Beach location. Fantastic barista, welcoming, knowledgeable, and clearly takes pride in his craft. Service like that makes you want to come back. On day one, I had a cappuccino. The espresso was rich, full-flavored, perfectly balanced, and beautifully crafted. You can really taste the quality of the beans and the care that goes into the preparation. Day two, I tried the Caffé Mocha, and it was honestly one of the best I’ve ever had. Deep chocolate flavor without being overly sweet, smooth espresso backbone, and just the right texture. The snacks are really tasty as well. If you’re anywhere near this spot, don’t miss it. I’ll be back next time I’m in town.

Had one of the house specialties, Turkish Cafe Latte w cardamon (skillfully crafted with the perfect balance) and the ham and cheese croissant (flakey, savory, and tasty). We are visiting from Europe and it’s our first time at Kean’s. Elliott was the best who provided local knowledge and recommendations on coffee and pastry selections. Excellent service, delicious artisan coffee, a perfect way to start a day. Thank you Elliott!

Was recommended this place by a professor of mine who said this place has the best coffee. He was very right. I had the iced mocha and it was perfect. Also got the energy bowl which was very filling. Staff was very kind and helpful. 10/10 would recommend

This is my absolute favorite coffee in Orange County, it doesn’t get better than this!!!!! I’m an OC native and I’ve seen all the coffee shops come and go, and this one has been here for awhile!!! It’s a must try!!! The best part about their coffee is that their number of shots increase with your size of coffee! Other coffee spots could never, usually other coffee shops just add more milk and not the espresso content sadly. My FAV drink is their hot Cafe Napoli (white chocolate + hazelnut) with oat milk. It has 3 shots and if you get a large they up the espresso to 4 shots! And a large iced cafe Napoli has 5 shots 🤣😅 They have another location in Tustin that’s just as amazing. If you have friends/family visiting from out of time, take them HERE!!

Loved the decor, inside was spacious, stylish, and welcoming. The customer service was great, and the atmosphere was buzzing with energy. It was clearly a popular spot, with lots of people gathered, chatting, and enjoying themselves. We only stopped in for a quick coffee to fuel our drive home, but the brew was excellent. I’m already looking forward to coming back and trying one of their specialty lattes!
