Used to LOVE this place! Was always a 5-star joint and referred soooo many people to it! People would drive out of the way from OC & LA just to drive through! However, it's really changed over the past couple years. Over the last couple years, I noticed the lack of coffee in the drinks and there must have been a charge in syrups or something because the flavors are just off - often just sweet without an actual flavor. However, I kept coming back to support this small business and with hopes of getting one of the delicious coffee drinks of days past.
The last three times were just horrible - so I think I'm done after so many chances. The staff is more concerned with checking their phones and carrying-on inside the booth. The drinks don't taste anything like they used to - even when you modify the orders. It just tastes like sugar syrup and milk blended with ice! And often there is an odd bitter aftertaste (not coffee bitter though)... not sure if it's the product or they need to clean their equipment - I dunno!
We're still dealing with COVID, so I try to avoid poor reviews especially when it comes to these smaller shops. But I don't see it getting any better (not in OVER two years), so I'm joining those who have discovered other local alternatives instead of returning to Mojo's; I'd rather frequent another small business that has consistent...

Their Java chip frappe was ok - not mind-blowing but definitely satisfying when you're craving something cold and sweet. The coffee flavor came through nicely without being too bitter, though the chip to coffee ratio could use some tweaking.
Carmen who attended me was very sweet.
I also tried their matcha, which was decent. It had that earthy green tea flavor without being too grassy or bitter, and was prepared with the right amount of sweetness. It's clear they use quality matcha powder rather than the pre-sweetened mixes some places rely on.
The idea is inviting with two convenient drive-ups. The staff was friendly and efficient, getting orders out in good time even during the busy periods.
What keeps me from giving that fifth star is that while everything was good, nothing completely wowed me. That said, Mojo's is definitely worth a visit if you're in Corona and looking for a reliable spot to grab a quality beverage. I'll certainly be back to explore more...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreFirst time at Mojos about a week ago. Nothing big or spectacular just a cute little drive thru coffee spot, simple but definitely memorable.I have got to say the abba zabba coffee drink i tried,that was everything! So yum and just the right blend of sweet and strong unlike some places i have been to that make the drinks so sweet your lips are sticky and you start feeling like your on some sort of bad sugar trip. Or the coffee is to bitter like some day old truck stop coffee and barely any flavor so this was perfect. I love these lattes i have never heard of before such as the abba zabba, i dont think any other coffee spot offers the type of flavor combinations Mojos doesā¦at least not that i am aware of yet lol. You gotta stop by and try the abba zabba, i cant say enough about it. The peanut butter in it is a nice surprise. How they achieved the nougat flavor idk but bomb! Service was...
