Bluestone Lane Old Towne Orange Café 114 North Olive Street, Orange, CA 92866

"Party of 3, two adults, one child. Came in at about 9am Superbowl Sunday to take advantage of the less busy morning. Cafe has a pretty, but comfortable, layout and is very clean. Ordered the folded chimichurri eggs, which were delicious, perfectly cooked and tasted great. My friend and her child also enjoyed their food. Unfortunately, the biggest downside was the service. Despite being only one of three tables present, two of which had already received their meals before we ordered our own food, the server seemed keen to get us out of there. We had our entrees for less than 5 minutes, when the server came to drop off our bill for the table, did not ask if we were looking to order anything else. However the server did say an obligatory brusque "no rush", but it was very clear, by the appearance of our plates, that we were not even 15% into our food. Prior to ordering we asked for two checks, the tab had not been split. Toward the end of our meal my friend decided she wanted to order another side of fruit for her child and I wanted to order something sweet. We did so, it took a concerningly long period of time to receive two items which required no cooking, at this point we were one of two tables present, the other table had already paid out. Again, the updated check was dropped off almost immediately. At this point I asked the server to split the check, helped her divide the items, she practically ran away before I could ask her for a box. Very unwelcoming vibe, we were obviously being rushed out, despite the cafe being practically empty and our table continuing to order. Despite the beautiful aesthetic inside the cafe, and the delicious food, the unwelcoming vibe of the service made it an unpleasant experience. There are other cafes in the immediate area with good food and infinitely better service."

"Nice location and outdoor patio area. Place was not that busy but food order took over an hour to arrive. When it did it was not worth the wait. BL burrito was average, wedges were the best part. Warm chicken and grains bowl was very poor, chicken was overcooked with the texture of something that was microwaved, vegetables were way overcooked. Lattes were fine."

"Went in this morning at 10am. The place was not packed but seemed they were short staffed for waiters and/or waitresses. We were told 20 min wait but waited for over 30. After we were seated it took a while for the waitress to take our order. She was nice but seemed to have the whole inside by herself. I ordered the green baked eggs, black coffee and the beet latte. The food was good (toast was burnt and baked eggs were like hard boiled eggs but still tasty) and the beet latte was surprisingly delicious. I wanted to love this place but was underwhelmed especially due to staffing. Also bathrooms were very dirty and the door lock was broken."

"Great service, I think the male manager or owner took our order. The female barista made me a great coffee(didn't see names) and this had to be the most perfectly made croissant EVER filled with super fresh fruit. Very chill quick service plenty of open seats, we sat outside and people watched while eating our food."

"I ordered their house favorite Avocado smash; it’s an elevated avocado toast and I loved every bite (a hint of spice and topped with smoked salmon) Kept me full through dinner. Their iced latte and warm chicken and ancient grains weren’t anything too special but still much better than others. We all loved their honey drizzled banana bread with strawberries and whipped ricotta! Came here for late lunch to celebrate a friend’s birthday. People started trickling down by the time we came (1-2pm) so we almost had the place to ourselves, the crew warmly accommodated us the entire time. It was pure pleasure being welcomed in and served by Tyler. We also loved the Australian themed interior. It didn’t feel like we were at the middle of downtown OC. Place was bright and clean. There is an outside patio where most people dined. It did take us a while to find parking, so be ready to walk a couple of blocks away."
