I went to this coffee shop for the first time a couple weekends ago with my girlfriend. Since I moved back to Riverside this summer, Iāve made it a point to try local businesses. I browsed the menu before I went, and I knew I had to go just based on the flavor options alone.
When I walked in, it was pretty busy. All the tables inside were occupied, and there were people hanging out in the outdoor seating area as well. Aside from the reviews, seeing all the people there had me feeling like I was in for a treat, and I was definitely right!
I ordered the Lavender Black & White and a coffee cake. My girlfriend ordered the Espresso Chip (blended latte). Both drinks were really tasty, especially the espresso chip. That one was sweeter than the lavender one. The lavender coffee is great if you like the taste of coffee with a hint of sweetness. I mainly tasted the lavender and coffee. If you enjoy lavender, this is a good option for you. The coffee cake was also delicious and the perfect amount of sweet and fluffiness.
The staff there is super nice. The cashier who rang us up even tried to rescue us from a bee that made its way inside the shop. If youāve been thinking of giving this place a try, go for it! You wonāt be disappointed.
NOTE: I saw several people had ordered the strawberries and cream drink. Itās a smoothie consistency, and it looked super tasty. Considering how popular it is, Iām sure itās magically delicious! They have a section on the menu titled āIf coffeeās not your thing,ā so thereās a little something...

We ordered a waffle, some type of biscuit, and the avocado toast. All delicious. My husband ordered a latte that was very good and the fresh squeezed orange juice - wow!! For my drink, I ordered off the Naturals, Golden Tumeric latte. This is not a sweet drink, all natural flavors, (so I would recommend more honey if want it sweet) hints of ginger, don't really taste the black pepper but you feel good about your drink for your body! The inside is warm & dark. Since they are pretty popular, they get busy, so noise levels are not somewhere one could relax and read a book. It's more of a, get together with friends and catch up or simply people watch from the seats by the wall. Outside seating is available too. Needless to say from my pictures, we've been back and...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreYo check it out itās another coffee shop!! This one has been around since Iāve lived here so for over a decade. Great place to come by and grab a coffee. Price wise itās kinda prices the same as the large mermaid chain, if anything some are .50-$1 cheaper. The customer service is greatā¦I usually donāt know what to get and they usually recommend something to my liking. The vibes are cool. If Iām being honest, 50% of the people give off those hipster vibes, 25% are those grab n go, and the other 25% are your basic coffee girlies.
If you sit at the shop to sip on your coffee and eat a muffin or an avocado toast (thanks to those toasts I canāt afford a home), you might get a chance to eavesdrop on someone conversation and get good juicy gossip (people are lowkey loud). 10/10 would sip and...
