I want to start by saying I love the Bakehouse and frequently visit this location due to its friendly staff and delicious drinks. That being said I was excited to come try all the new matcha's on the matcha menu, unfortunately they've replaced the hand whisked powder to a machine powered one (so unnecessary and redundant) and it's a noticeable difference. The matcha itself is grainy and separates immediately after the girls pour it out the pitcher, and the taste quite frankly is horrible. It's ridiculous to pay nearly $8 for flavored milk with grains floating around. Their lattes are phenomenal though. I want to reiterate that the girls working behind the bar so sweet and make this coffee shop what it is, I'm hoping this review reaches the right people and they bring back the hand whisked matcha. read more

I've been to the downtown arcade coffee location and I loved it there. I knew I wanted to check out the bakery since it offered more food! I got the draft coffee and unfortunately I didn't think it tasted like the draft at the downtown location hence the 4 stars. However, the food and pastries were excellent! The lemon curd donut was very delicious. It was tart and sweet. The shortbread cookie was also amazing! I was also able to try the tri tip breakfast biscuit and that was ok. The biscuit was delicious, flaky, and buttery. However, the tri tip could use some work. They gave generous portions for the price you paid tho. The location was hard to find and located in a big plaza with lots of stores. It can be confusing when you first walk in. It's across from a bookstore and the sign still says jammin bakery on the outside. read more

Wi-Fi password works for all locations. Bakery for all 3 Arcade Coffee Roasters. Canyon crest Bakehouse store seems to be really busy all the time and service is still good. Located near the water feature between Subway and Olive Oil store. Outside seating available and inside seating fills up quickly. Been to the Arcade coffee sites about twice and staff is very friendly and courteous. Cashier has always gone above and beyond when helping choose if you're indecisive. Wait times were usually quick and when our order was skipped over, the cashier figured it out before we mentioned it. Bonus customer service points for the great catch on that. read more

It's a define never again. I get that prices have increased, but I've traveled extensively to coffee roasteries and I've never paid 8 dollars for an oat mil late. Not in San Francisco, not in Portland, not in Chicago, but it Riverside--wow. And to top it off the quality of the late is sub par. So disappointed. read more

Located in a beautiful (but a little hard to find) location, The Bakehouse offers loads of delicious foods and drinks! We had the yuzu avocado toast, the latte with seasonal syrup, and the salmon benny. Everything was SO good!! I especially loved the touch of yuzu of my toast-- it was just the right amount and still allowed the avocado to sing for itself. Service itself was typical. The person who took our order was nice, and the person who delivered our food came with a smile. One thing to note about this place is that it is self serve. This means you may be expected to clean your own plates and cups, grab your own water and napkins, etc. We did have to clean someone else's mess because they had left their plates after finishing, but I don't blame them since there's no signage anywhere in the restaurant telling customers anything. Perhaps that's something the restaurant can fix by the time I come to dine again! :) read more

Service takes too long for no reason. It's seems like they create a line to make it seem like their products are good. Half the time they run out of their product. Do better Bakehouse. Have 2 registers and stay stocked. You need faster service. Also, I got a racist vibe from the workers. read more

My husband and I went it for our second visit today. We are really beginning to love this place. Our first visit we had breakfast and espresso and a latte. The breakfast was good. The homemade sausage with the biscuits were amazing! My husband said his espresso was bitter which was not good. My latte was good. Our second visit my husband got the house coffee and I had their pumpkin drink. Both were delicious! :) Super fast service and very friendly. Monday morning wasn't busy at all when we were there... nice and quiet ambiance. read more

This is my second review and this time for the hash. In retrospect I wish I would have ordered more sauce. Egg was cooked perfectly if you like over easy eggs. Onions had some crunch but aromatic and sweet. The potatoes were soft and crunchy. The sausage was cooked well done and similar to linguica if familiar for comparison. It took about 20 minutes to come out so be prepared to wait. I came early around opening time and it is way more of a relaxed quiet atmosphere before the rush of people arrive. Best place for breakfast and brunch. read more

My friend and I have been meaning to try this place out for a while now. Stepping in, we had high expectations and the ambiance was very cute. It wasn't busy at the time we went (around 1pm on a random Wednesday) and the cashier was very friendly. I went for their draft latte while my friend had their jade cloud green tea. Upon first sip, I was very disappointed. They described it as a "rlly good sweet cold coffee" and they weren't lying-- it tasted like I drank straight out of the syrup bottle. My friend's "jade cloud" green tea was pretty much just any ordinary green tea. It was really watered down too (as you can see from the picture) Overall, it wasn't worth it for the price we paid, but I'll give some brownie points for the aesthetics and nice workers! read more

As this small local chain expands it's interesting to see how they establish a personality of sorts at each new location. While the original location best serves the UCR community it wasn't really convenient for us to go to regularly. That said, the new downtown store is within walking distance but I was curious how they would continue the legacy of the previous occupant: Jammin Bread. Quite well as it turns out. My gal had to work on school stuff so she came here first and reported back that she really enjoyed the Chicken Curry Sandwich. Therefore, when she had another assignment to do I joined up and brought stuff to read. Looking ahead online I decided to try their Steak Sando, which features, like all of the sandwiches, Focaccia bread. She reordered the Chicken Curry and we both got beverages. Cold Brew and the green tea based Jade Cloud. The coffee seemed decent but the lack of anything but a lighter green tea made me wish I'd ordered something else that said, it wasn't bitter like many teas get if you steep it too long. The music was a little wonky but I'll take it over the shitty worship music they sometimes play at the other locations any day. The cool girl working the front brought out the sandwiches and after snapping quick pics I took a big bite. The focaccia was a tad dry on the top section, the oil having migrated south to the bottom half but was a good choice for the collective whole. The tri-tip was sliced just right, and I liked the melted cheese and carmalized onions. 3.5 out of 5 I'd say. She said that the Chicken Curry was a bit different than the first time so there's clearly some discrepancies regarding consistency. Hopefully that'll resolve, it's often attributable to different prep cooks so I'd like to see a set, consistent recipe for the future. They closed at 4pm so keep that in mind in case you need to study. Overall, pretty good, I'll come back sometime. read more

Stopped by for the first time this past Saturday and it was BUSY! The line was literally out the door and for good reason! I asked the man working the counter for his opinion on what I should get and he directed me to the draft latte and seasonal draft latte and even let me sample them. (They were both delicious!) I ended up getting the original draft latte and an arcmuffin. The arcmuffin was SO good and very filling. When I picked my son up from his class he smelled the arcmuffin in my car and said "oh my gosh that smells so good.. I want one!" Will definitely be back! read more

Small interior with limited menu, it's ok for a quick breakfast stop, servers were great

Love the draft latte but everything else was below average. We decided to get brunch here on a weekend and tried the Spanish chorizo hash and steak sando. First of all, it took over 30 minutes for our food to come out. The hash wasn't much of a hash, it's country potatoes with really hard and salty sausage with an egg. The steak sando was underwhelming, bread was a bit dry as well. Would only recommend coming for the coffee, if this review was just based on food, it would've received 2-3 stars. read more

This is one of my favorite places in Riverside right now. The service is amazing, the baristas are nice, the matcha lattes are incredible, and the food is to die for! This place absolutely takes the cake for best baked goods in Riverside. The scones are incredible and the donuts and muffins are incredibly flavorful and filling. Don't even get me started on the brunch here! The Boursin omelet MELTS in your mouth and the Eggs benedict is unlike any other Eggs Benedict I have ever had before. Come early on the weekends, because it does get really packed here! read more

Been here multiple times now, yes the price is a bit of a premium, but I haven't had a bad experience each and every time I've gone here! My go-to's for this place is definitely the draft latte with oat milk (lactose intolerance ), the salmon Benny, the steak Sando, and now a surprising addition of the Brekky Sammie. The funny part was, when I ordered the Brekky, my brain was registering that I was ordering their BLT styled sandwich, so when the food arrived I was caught off guard and realized my brain fart. However, like Bob Ross, this ended up being a happy little accident because out of all the food items I've had from here, this gave me the most sincere, satisfying reaction that made me go "whooooaaaaaaa" I hope those of you who end up trying it get the same reaction, but totally get it if it doesn't because we all have different palettes read more

3.5 stars Scrolled through yelp and found this place. The cafe is a cute little place. Ambiance is very nice, modern feels and a good amount of tables to sit. Most people come here to do there work as well. Great place for getting a quick bites and study. Service was alright, she wasn't rude but didn't feel welcomed. Food was alright, I have had better sandwiches. My tea has a nice scent to it but it was blend. read more

Interior- 10/10. Loved the dark green brick for the coffee bar with a white table top. Such great natural light, as the walls are window floor to ceiling as well as upper light from the windows. Very spacious in the ordering area, as well as seating area. Definitely a great location too. As there is outdoor seating with views of a little fountain river and great greenery. Drink- Iced Matcha Latte with Oat Milk ($6.50 + $1.00) 6.7/10. I think it tasted good, a little watery. Didn't taste the oat milk too much. Had that green-ness of matcha. Although, it tasted very watered down and not a very rich matcha. I downed it pretty quickly, and even then it was a little bland. The photo was taken about 10 minutes after, so the color looks a lot more watery. Kind of pricey, yet again. Especially for how it was tasted. Service- 5/10. Honestly pretty average. Was greater when I came in. Kind of an awkward interaction with the cashier. Didn't really say thanks for anything just kinda dipped after I ordered. Not that I expect a fancy goodbye or anything, it was just a kind of walk away thing. Walked to the bar to chat with the baristas and friends. Baristas behind the bar were chatting a lot. Fair, it's a lowkey coffee shop. Guy making my drink was kind. But was in conversation a lot so took "awhile" to get my drink (It wasn't too long because how long could making a drink really take). But in my opinion, seemed like my drink was a hassle to their conversation ToT so I kind of felt awkward haha... definitely not a super welcoming environment for me as a person coming for the first time. If I was a regular, I'd be more chill because that's the vibe. The menu and aesthetics of the store were great, would come back again for that. Overall- 3.4/5 read more

All locations of Arcade are stellar, and their customer service is outstanding. The baked goods are so good, as is their matcha and coffee, you actually taste espresso! yay for real coffee ;) Their lunch can be a little pricier but it's delicious and quality ingredients, more than worth it. Dare I say, they have THEE best espresso martini at the downtown location on the weekends, too. Support local businesses and check this place out! read more

I was really looking forward to coming here but my experience wasn't what I hoped for. One star knocked off because this place was terribly difficult to find, we drove around in circles looking for it, like put up a sign or something AT LEAST, there's not even over hanging signs on the outside and the directory isn't updated with their location either. Another star knocked off because the cashier said it'd take 10-15 mins for my food to come out (mind you they were busy but only with people ordering drinks, I didn't see anyone else ordering food or eating their food) but it took 30 mins ... I don't understand how this simple omelet and toast took that long. Also why is the oatmilk $1.00 extra ... and $0.50 for sweetener Now the food was pretty good, I liked the bright flavors of the arugula salad a lot paired with the omelet. The French toast was fluffy and delicious. The setting is really cute and I appreciate all the tables inside for students to study. read more

We visited downtown Riverside on the morning of Sunday 2/9 to have brekkie and enjoy The Cheech Museum. Our plan was to dine at The Mission Inn, but we arrived 3 minutes late for regular brekkie and refused to pay $79 each for 'brunch'. A quick walk around the 'hood found us at the Arcade Coffee Roasters and OH BOY was the meal great! Sever Anna was First Class, the ambiance was perfect modern boho and the food was delicious. The sourdough blueberry muffin I ordered with eggs and spuds could not have been more perfect side, and my Better Half finished her entire Breakfast Plate. I'm so glad we bailed on that other place and found Arcade Coffee Roasters instead. It was the perfect way to start our day avoiding the Stupor Bowl... THANK YOU, ARCADE COFFEE ROASTERS!!! read more

Always shopping in Canyon Crest but I haven't stopped by here before. This weekend I felt like wanting to explore the area a little bit. Since I was craving for a coffee, I decided to have brunch here. I wanted to try many different things but finally went with a latte and the French omelette. The coffee shop was packed with people. There is also seating outside. Overall, it's a nice experience. I like the side salad that comes with the omelette. The Omelette is also well cooked. The caramelized onions was delicious. read more

We ordered 2 Smoked Salmon Benny, iced draft latte, hot chai, iced butterscotch oat milk latte and the Jalapeño scone. Total with tax& tip was almost $70, pricey but what isn't nowadays. I'd rather support local coffee shops. Food was 7/10 . Jalapeño scone was more like a focaccia , which I didn't mind at all. The lattes were decent, not robust enough for me. Next time, I'll ask for an extra shot. Just my opinion. Seemed like everyone sitting inside were quietly studying, there's a nice area with a small water feature and plenty of tables to sit outside. I'm looking forward to trying the carrot cake French toast on my next visit. read more

The coffee is amazing here. You can taste the freshness in their coffee that's roasted weekly! Then on top of that they have all HOMEMADE syrups! They just upgraded to a "Matcha machine" praying they go back to hand whisked matcha. The matcha machine is quick and convenient but does not break up the matcha at all leaving you with a cup of gritty bitter matcha. :( read more

Great spot for food and coffee, they brought out the food and drinks to our table which was nice for a coffee shop. I noticed there was a limited amount of power (someone from across the room had to plug in their phone next to our table) and the chairs are fairly uncomfortable. I wouldn't want to spend a long time there like I would do other coffee shops. Great place to have brunch, not to spend long hours getting stuff done. read more

the coffee is great! I used to love the draft latte but it's grown a bit too sweet for me lately-- not sure if that's due to the draft latte making or my own taste buds. recently had the sweet latte with half of the honey cinnamon syrup + oat milk and it was so lovely and delicious. read more

I've visited this cafe shop 5-10 times while living in Riverside. PROS: - The coffee is very good and their matcha drinks is also very good. - The atmosphere is good for studying and there are plenty of tables and outlets if you plan to do work. CONS: - I ordered a hot drink and the lid adid not create a proper seal with the cup, so my drink spilled on my shirt numerous times. This has happened to me 2-3 times. - Their food menu was also very top tier before, however, recently they demoted to a "to-go" menu with subpar food and it is disappointing because I really favored and went out of my way to get food from their previous menu. - Other customers and patrons adhere to cafe ettiquete of speaking softly while on the phone and or talking to others, but workers do not. It is disruptive to loudly discuss work situations and dilemmas in the seating area. I hope the place can invest in an employee lounge so that these disruptive and loud conversations do not occur on the floor in front of other customers. read more

Edit: I totally realized this is the wrong location. My review was for the downtown location. My bad! I love their draft iced coffee (cold brew, oatmilk and agave) and their brunch is out of this world (only available on the weekends). It's high quality dishes and you can tell lots of love is put into every dish. The presentation is always immaculate. I love their steak and eggs and my husband gets their crab cake Benedict. The yogurt parfait is nothing like you'd imagine. It's divine with this pistachio purée on it. Only negative, which isn't a big deal, is you have to wait in line to order and be seated-so sometimes you can wait a bit while a whole party orders in front of you. Not ideal but not a deal breaker at all. Food speaks for itself. read more
