Perhaps the most underrated spot at UCR. everyone's always talking about bytes or the school of business but nobody is talking about emerbee's! They should be though because that turkey panini will be on my mind for long after I graduate. The honey cinnamon latte is actually DELICIOUS. and that's coming from someone who doesn't usually like coffee. There's some outdoor seating nearby but this is more a grab and go spot. They also have online ordering if you use the UCR Dining app read more

I've been here once a few years back. This is a cute and comfortable little spot. It is hidden and you would not know it was there unless you happen to have class in the surrounding buildings. It's in the middle of the materials and science building and the grad study center. This is a little brunch cafe. They have many options, mainly coffee but juices as well. They also have some good options like avocado toast and sandwiches. I got the iced honey cinnamon latte and a chicken panini sandwich. The server was really friendly and recommended me the garlic cheese bread. There was no one in line when I ordered and my food and drink were prepared quickly. With my drink, you could really taste the expresso and the cinnamon. With my sandwich, the sever wrapped it up in a wrapper on a plate it was pretty big. I thanked him, that was really nice. It tasted like it was freshly prepared, even though it packaged. Great experience! I enjoyed it! read more

Don't trust online menus as they are all outdated. Just come by during their posted hours 9-3 which are accurate and look at menu yourself or take a picture to use as reference. I highly recommend their iced cream brule, matcha, and sandwiches. Overall good food and drinks just hope they update online menus and extend hours. read more

i ate at emerbees & klatch for the first time and i have to say i was pretty impressed! their selection is great, and the quality of the food was good too. i got the cheesy garlic bread, which was decently priced for what it was! however, for the drink, i was a little disappointed. i got the matcha latte w oat milk and the milk seemed to be kind of chunky? there was little white bits floating around in my matcha, which was a little off-putting. however, the taste was pretty good regardless! i'll probably come again soon, but it won't become a regular spot for me on campus. ++ everyone who was working the day i went was really kind and sweet, and was very communicative with customers regarding empty products or other topics, which was great! read more

My Order: Pink drink Grande (cold foam) $4.95 Avocado Toast $4.25 Pizza Grilled Cheese 7.99 Total $17.19 Delicious food, good prices. Pink drink never disappoints, cold foam was very delicious. Avocado toast comes with 2 slices with avocado with little sprinkles of tomato, onions and jalapeños, very good amount of avocado. The pizza grilled cheese is super yummy and flavorful it is also very big compared to the avocado toast. The avocado toast is good for a quick snack and the pizza grilled cheese is if you are really hungry. Workers were very nice and attentive, order was done in less than 10 minutes. Would come here again! read more

This little coffee spot just opened up in a location that's easy to miss, but a gem if you find it. The only other place on campus to get a wide variety of coffees and teas is Coffee Bean, but it's always so packed. However, this place serves Starbucks coffee, which is superior to Coffee Bean in my opinion. They also sell paninis and other sandwiches that are very good. The cashier that took my order was very nice and she made sure my order was accurate. I ordered two drinks and a Cuban panini. It was finished in about 3 minutes and my drinks were made very well. The Cuban was very hot and crunchy. Each bite had gooey cheese pulls and everything in the panini complimented each other. Overall, I was impressed with everything and I think this can be a popular spot soon enough. I'm very excited for this new business and I can't wait to try other sandwiches in the future! read more

Found this hidden gem behind the Material Sci and Engineering building at UCR. Really nice variety of food available. They have paninis, noodles, soup, sweets, and drinks. Their Egg and Chirizo panini was pretty good. It had a good amount of egg and chirizo. Only thing I didn't like was the bread was kinda burnt and personally I like my paninis with the bread crust cut off on top and bottom. But still pretty good. The Emer-treat was soft and flakey. Also it was fresh and warm, the filling too. Not too sweet either. The Honey Steamer is not too sweet, warm, and has that nice honey flavor. read more

SERVICE: 78 / 100 Service is sluggish, especially during the morning rush. Considering that Emerbee's is located on-campus in between the Materials Science & Engineering (MSE) building and the Multidisciplinary Research Building (MRB), and the fact that students don't have much time between classes, it is a bit surprising to see them work at such a pace. If you have back-to-back classes, I would not suggest coming here. However, the people behind the counter are friendly and they are trying their hardest to move as fast as they can. So don't give them a hard time. FOOD: 94 / 100 I ordered the Avocado Toast and a Café Americano. The toast was amazing! Topped with chopped tomatoes and onions and seasoned beautifully with salt and pepper, the cohesion in this was wonderful! The English muffins used as the "toast" for this could have been crisper, but it's only a minor thing. Overall, flavor was spot-on! The coffee was really good, a classic dark-roast that paired well with the Avocado Toast. Some coffee spots on this campus over-toast the beans, leaving an unpleasant bitter aftertaste (I'm looking at you, Starbucks at the Market at Glen Mor); this spot doesn't do that - thankfully - and I hope they continue roasting their coffee beans the way they do now. VALUE: 84 / 100 $2.99 for the avocado toast and ~$3.45 for the coffee. A quick bite and coffee for just under $6 is a good deal. I think for most students, $6 for a light meal similar to the one I had is very reasonable. It's light and very satisfying. If you're looking for a vast selection of food, however, be prepared to look elsewhere. Emerbee's has positioned itself as a healthy alternative to many of the eateries on campus - and as such, their selection of food is limited to fresh paninis, pastries, and salads. OVERALL SCORE: 85 / 100 If you're looking to settle down and get some work done, or want to socialize with some friends over coffee and food, consider Emerbee's. It has a selection of healthy dining options that are still very flavorful. read more
