Cheris' very first job, Coffee Importers is a Dana Point icon. It has recently changed locations and expanded to also include the new Rubee June Bakery.
It is right next to the Ocean Institute. Grab coffee, a Harbor Special Bagel or a Bakery goodie.
Coffee Importers
Since 1975, Coffee Importers has been a cherished family business at the heart of Dana Point. Starting as a quaint coffee shop, it has grown and evolved into a hub for the community, offering a coffee shop, ice cream store, deli, and juice bar—each dedicated to quality and connection.
From freshly brewed coffee made with unmatched attention to detail to the vibrant patio filled with regulars, Coffee Importers is more than just a place to eat and drink—it’s a gathering space for friends, families, and neighbors. Built on a tradition of giving back to the community and fostering lasting relationships, Coffee Importers remains a cornerstone of local life.
Have lunch or dinner in Laguna Beach! This is a gorgeous beach town to explore, and it is next door to our wedding venue. A favorite of Brandon and Cheris! (We went there for our first date here in CA)
