    Euro Caffe – Santa Ana – ★★★½☆

    Europe in a cup!? I found myself at Euro Caffe in Santa Ana on a chilly Southern California night, prepping for a house party and desperately in need of a Joe jolt. Situated strategically across from South Coast Plaza, ample parking, with a neon sign… it had ‘potential’ written all over it. The joint was hopping with families and couples, but the inside was a bit like a sardine can – not exactly the cozy vibe I was expecting. Note to self: pandemic-friendly isn’t their forte. I am not in the habit of visiting coffee shops in the evening but…

    Starbucks- Santa Ana Canyon-★★★★☆

    I recently visited the Starbucks located in Anaheim Hills during lunchtime. Despite having passed it numerous times before, this was my first official visit with a purpose. What sets this Starbucks apart from others is that it doesn’t have a drive-through! You have to climb half a flight of stairs to enter the establishment. Although the inside seemed to be designed to accommodate long lines, it wasn’t ideal for a lot of people who may want to hang out or get some work done. However, there are some choice spots inside to set up a laptop session. During my next…

Yes, more men than women – jackpot! These weren’t just random passersby, no sir, they looked like professionals, lured in by the siren song of caffeine just like the rest of us.
