There's a special something about discovering your coffee shop. It's where the baristas
recognize your order, where you can catch up with a friend over a much-needed cup, or where
you can sit with a wonderful cup and observe the world pass by.
When our agents assist clients in searching for a new home, they're not just searching for four
walls and a roof. They're searching for a way of life, a community, and a place to call home. A
town's local coffee culture tells a great deal about its heart, and that is why our team wanted to
take a break from discussing property listings to share something equally valuable: our top picks
for places to get a cup of coffee right in our own Tustin.
These are the places that make Tustin feel like home to us.
Kéan Coffee: For the True Coffee Aficionado
Leading off the list of Tustin institutions is Kéan Coffee. If coffee is your passion, this is your
haven. Kéan is famous for ethically-sourced, world-inspired beans, expertly roasted to bring out
the best flavor. As soon as you step inside, you're met with the deeply satisfying smell of freshly
brewed coffee and lively, energetic ambiance.
Our coffee connoisseur will attest that their pour-over is the best way to get the complex flavors
of their single-origin beans. But even a humble latte speaks to the amazing quality. This is the
place that becomes a Saturday morning staple—the perfect, high-quality cup you can always
rely on to right your morning.
👉 In short: Kéan is where passion meets perfection in every cup.
Friends Cafe: Your Home Away From Home
As the name implies, Friends Cafe is like a big hug. The atmosphere here is wonderfully cozy
and welcoming, so it's more than somewhere to grab coffee. It's somewhere to make yourself at
home. Our team's resident foodie counts this her number one spot for client lunches or when
she needs a nice place to work for an afternoon.
Though their coffee is great, the wonderful food menu puts it in the category of a genuine
community gathering place. It's a great spot for a Sunday brunch or lunchtime meeting. Having
an honest, friendly place like this in the area is priceless to a neighborhood. It's the type of
establishment that makes a community feel together.
