I came to SC for a family visit and they offered we go to Jadore. We were a few adults, 2 kids and a baby.As a vegan and gluten intolerant person it felt like there weren’t many options on the menu as everything has bread, cheese or meat on it.I ordered the coconut and squash soup and it tasted like Gerber baby puree. The person there which I think it one of the owners quickly replaced it with the açaí bowl which was ok and also gave us a free muffin. I really did feel like he was trying his best.Also I wouldn’t recommend this for families with younger kids as there wasn’t anything for the kids that was nutritious apart from crepes with chocolate which weren’t what I wanted my 8 and 2 year old to eat for lunch.Overall everyone said the food was ok but not great. Portion sizes were small and it was expensive.The great part was the garden in the back and the French music in the background. It could’ve been a bad day so I’m giving this 3 stars.Kid-friendliness: Not kid friendly unless you want to have pastries and sweet crepes with Nutella

Do you remember that scene in It’s Complicated when Meryl Streep and Alec Baldwin sneak into her bakery and make Pain Au Chocolat? They bite into them and you can almost taste them through the screen? Well, my friends, now you can experience it IRL. This right here, is the BEST croissant I’ve ever had and I’ve been to Paris three times! Minus one star “service” for the touch screen ordering. Much love J’Dore!

Fabulous service, delicious food and beautiful, whimsical garden setting. Loved the avocado toast with prosciutto and the lavender latte. We will be back!

I want to keep this wonderful concept a secret so we can avoid lines at the counter, but the work that the owners/managers have put into creating such high beverage and food quality must be commended and shared. This will be your favorite place after the first bite and sip.
Nice, charming patio. The food and service was excellent.

Particularly like the fact that the restroom mirror says ‘le vie est belle’! We had le classique sandwich and the chicken pesto crepe and such and it was delish. The 2 pastries, cinnamon roll and secret knot were amazing!!Kid-friendliness: Secret garden and lovely pastries

It’s not only the best coffee shop in town, the secret garden is an experience! The atmosphere is delightful, service is amazing and food, well, you need to go and check yourself. Thank me later :)Dietary restrictions: I’m allergic to gluten and they have amazing gluten-free options! The GF bun is delicious and so is the brownie! So happy to have a place in town I can eat without craving other peoples food..

Today was my first of what will be many visits to J’Adore Cafe. Just finished an amazing bowl of pumpkin coconut soup and latte. The soup must have been made from scratch because there was small chunks of pumpkin (which I adore) still in the blended soup. He left the cheese off the top to satisfy my plant based breakfast request. The coffee was smooth and delicious. Looking forward to my next visit ?

Okay this is my favorite spot in San Clemente. The food 10/10. The coffee 10/10. The happy hour 10/10. The service 1000000/10. Jake deserves employee of the month because he gives excellent recommendations and has such a fun personality that matches the vibe perfectly

The food was delicious and the patio quaint. Try the Classique Special and Pumpkin Soup!
