This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it.

In Riverside, coffee shops cluster around downtown offices, college campuses and the main commercial streets of residential neighborhoods, and the independents usually close by mid-afternoon while chains stay open into the evening. Across California, drive-thru coffee stands and kiosks fill the gap in suburbs and along highways, and roasters often sell bags and brewing gear at the counter. Check the listing for hours, whether the cafe takes mobile orders, and its Google rating and recent reviews; parking is easiest at suburban locations, while downtown shops rely on street meters or nearby garages.

Ordered a chai tea ghiachatto (sorry I forgot how to spell it) and it came out green ? I've ordered this many times from the other locations and never has it been green. Chai isn't even green/a green tea. It was literally the same color as my friend's matcha. Still tasted okay, but definitely not a chai.

I have been going here awhile, we usually get cupcakes by the dozen for birthdays and holidays. But the last few times I’ve gone there the cupcakes were awful. They were dry and old tasting . I called the manager back in August and told her about the last dozen I had purchased for my son . She promised to refund the card. But months later we realized she never did. We decided to stop going there. Then yesterday I was in the area and wanted coffee so I decided to pick up 6 cupcakes to take them home and try them again. I had told the girl who served me what happened last time and she offered to look me up . She found my order and said that she wasn’t sure what happened and then said something about giving me a discount. I was happy about that . But when I got home I started thinking , what discount ? I paid $30 for a coffee drink and 6 dry old tasting cupcakes which were thrown in the trash. We probably won’t go there again. Not when it’s so expensive for those cupcakes. There is a better place that offers fresh ones in riverside. I’d rather travel further and pay more for better cupcakes. The should just stick to coffee which is what most customers go there for. The place was bus

The drinks here are always a disappointment for the amount of money that is charged. I Went this morning and was super dissatisfied, but I did enjoy my lucky charms marshmallow rice crispies.

Stopped for breakfast on my way to work. The Dulce de Leche/Hot, was so delicious! I also got a Sausage Egg nd Cheddar BF sandwich. It was delicious as well. But the center of the sandwich was a bit cold. I went thru the drive thru. Didn't notice till i was down the street.

Located on Van Buren Blvd and Orange Terrace Pkwy near Farmer Boys, with drive-thru and plenty of parking. I was actually on my way for breakfast elsewhere but stopped in here just for coffee and a cupcake or pastry. To my surprise, they also serve a variety of breakfast sandwiches! That was the highlight of my day. I had an iced 'White Mocha,' a 'Sausage & Cheddar Breakfast Sandwich,' and a 'Praline Cupcake.' Everything tasted amazing. The mocha had the perfect balance of espresso, milk, and syrup. The sandwich, made on a super soft ciabatta roll, was put together perfectly. The cupcake was the ideal addition to end my breakfast feeling satisfied. Service was great, fast, efficient, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. There's plenty of seating, including outdoor tables. Overall, I had an awesome experience here and will definitely return to try more of their treats.
