Rise to grind — Restaurant in Murrieta

I would rate it 0 stars if I could. I've been wanting to try it's a grind for awhile so when I moved out here and saw one I was very excited the first time I went with my boyfriend I asked the barista what were some of there more popular drinks she was rude with an attitude and said I don't know what do you like. My boyfriend ordered a ice blended drink and the barista smiled and said that's one of the popular ones!! That's what I was asking her originally. My drink was gross but the drink my BF got was really good! I than gave them a second chance on my birthday I got my nails done in the same shopping center it was hot and I remembered how good the iced coffee was so I thought I'd give them another chance... Big mistake this time was worse I walked in waited 5 mins or so couple customers were sitting inside no one was at the counter I finally yelled is anyone here then yet another rude girl comes out looking annoyed that I needed help I told her it was my birthday and asked if they did anything for birthdays I know some places do. She looked at me like I was crazy and said no ...what do you mean I explained the obvious she said no we don't do birthdays never once said happy birthday I ordered my iced drink which was good and left. I love coffee and would probably go there all the time blows my mind that they have good reviews on here horrible customer service two chances...

UPDATE: I quit going there a few years ago because of an incident with a new barista. It was 5 am and I only had a $20 bill. The lady would not accept it because she had no change. She wanted a CC. I did not want to put it on my company CC so I said how about you hold onto the $20 and I'll come back later. Nope. How about you give me the cup of coffee now and I'll come back later to pay when you have change. Nope. Fortunately Bill or Waltz, another long term customer, stepped in and paid this lady. I told Jay about this incident, the owner, and have not been back since.

It has a good atmosphere and the people talk with each other. Kind of like a beer garden. The owner Jay encourages people to stay, buy coffee and pastries, and enjoy the atmosphere. It's one of the best places to come to get to know what's happening in the neighborhood. Today Jay is working the place and I'm glad to see things have...

Love love love this place bring $4 for the homemade bakery items, $6 - $7 for the hot or cold custom made beverages and OMG The Cookie Batter Hot coco is AWESOME SAUCE Walking in this amazing establishment you are greated with Smiles and welcome and cashiers and Beristas who actually enjoy there jobs and take pride and making your items correctly ive driven miles just to stop in to see if I would receive the same warm welcome and I can tell you every time it's as if you are the only person that matters.
