Pain Du Monde - CORONA DEL MAR

Very nice coffee shop in the old Pain du Monde location. Loves her hazelnut coffee and baked goods – esp the Zinammon pull apart. Your baristas are always friendly and fun.

Love this place!!! I came in last week for the first time and was helped by Cat, who was so kind and friendly. I wasn’t exactly sure what I wanted and she was patient with me in helping me find something I’d really like. The service is very good and the flavored lattes are delicious. I’ve now been back a few times snd it’s my favorite coffee place in the area! Be sure to check it out!

I’ve been to Grounded Coffee twice. Great vibe and location. Near the end of CDM on E coast blvd, so parking is easy. Lauren served us both times and remembered my order. So welcoming and my latte was perfect (Starbucks always taste watered down, but not at Grounded). Will come back soon!

Beautiful cafe with a friendly staff! Very fun atmosphere, and the skilled baristas prepare some very nice milk drinks my daughter loved her vanilla latte, and I thought my (unflavored) latte was great as well. I will say that my tastes tend to skew more toward third wave style coffee, and I found both the filter coffee and espresso here to both be more toward the traditional end. That is ultimately why I rated Grounded as a 4 instead of a 5 they do what they do very well, it's just not 100% aligned with my personal preferences. I think if you like a more traditional/roastier coffee flavor, then you will probably love Grounded!

This restaurant has a wonderfully calming atmosphere! The staff is quick to recognize their regular customers and provides excellent service. It's a fantastic spot for studying. Even though there's no Wi-Fi available, I wouldn't reduce its rating for that reason. Just bring your own hotspot or portable Wi-Fi, and you'll be able to get your work done. If you give this place less than 5 stars, you must be a real stickler!
