Crumb donut (yes, I ate it with a fork so my fingers didn't get sticky)
Nancy A.

My coworker's student she is mentoring brought donuts and it looked good. He brought a good variety of maple/chocolate bars, glazed donuts, crumb and other types that I can't remember. I tried a crumb donut and it was tasty. It was sweet as expected. No complaints here. Donuts were fresh and pretty big.

C'mon. $6 in Fontana is unreal. Even in Santa Monica, less than $6 at donut shops.. Boba is too hard at 9am now.. Asian run shop, they could do better..

When I'm craving a donut, I come to this local spot. The staff is always friendly and quick to help you. They have plenty of options, offering the classics and the new trendy cute looking donuts perfect for a pic on the gram. I love a good chocolate bar or maple bar. Can never go wrong with either. The tiger tail is soooo good, you have to try it! It's similar to a cinnamon bun flavor wise. And it actually looks like a tiger tail. The only bagel I've tried here is the jalapeño bagel. I ask for extra cream cheese because I feel like they don't add enough for my liking. The picture attached is what the normal order is like, I forgot to ask for extra cream cheese this time oops! The croissants are ok, you can get better ones elsewhere but this IS a donut shop so it's fine. I've tried the plain croissants before. A lot of people like the stuffed croissants ie ham and cheese or turkey and cheese. I got the turkey and cheese today, it was ok. I've never tried an apple fritter before but decided to try one today. Wow! So delish!

We have been coming to this family owned business for years. Always friendly and good quality. We got maple and chocolate bars, coconut, oreo, lemon and raspberry filled ... We also enjoyed their cinnamon rolls and apple fritters in the past. We will be back.

Everyday, after the gym, I see this place and am always tempted to drop in. I've dropped in twice in the last month post-workout lol. The first time I got their ham, cheese, and jalapeño croissant and small cup of coffee. Their coffee is good enough to drink black! The croissant was also really fresh (I was there at 7AM). I burned my mouth scarfing it down. The second time, I ordered a dozen Variety donuts for $14. I honestly believe small mom & pop donut shops, like this one, taste a lot better than the chain donut shops. The ladies here are always friendly and from what I can tell, they have a bunch of regulars! I'll definitely be dropping by again when I get the craving.

Apple fritter
Bob V.

I went in the door seeking a great apple fritter, and here's how it went: The fritters looked delicious - they had that beautiful lumpy, irregular shape fritters must have, and they glistened enticingly in the display case. When you bite into a fritter, especially along the edge, you need to get a bracing pop of sugary crunch. This crunch was good but not great. Great fritters must be loaded with cinnamon, and packed with numerous succulent apple bits. We didn't reach either of these goals here today. The last criticism involves a taste which lingered in the mouth after a bite - it was unmistakable - the fryer oil had seen too many previous batches and really needed to be changed. All in all, not a terrible fritter - it was enjoyable enough. I'd give it three stars, but I've thrown another star on this review because of the helpful, friendly service we received.

First of the coffee and matcha 10/10 Good strong bold…read morecoffee. It's not super sweet compared to new coffee shops but it's the perfect sweetness. The matcha is not watered down it's bold in flavor. Definitely not sweet so ask for sweetness level is you like a sweet matcha. Place is clean, small and cute! Staff is so friendly. They are always sweet and respectful. I accidentally forgot to ask for cold foam and although it was my mistake they didn't want to charge me. I still paid because why not. This place is a bit far from me but it's definitely on the top of my "if we are near and it's open we going here" list.

Located next to Urban Iron gym (same door), Psalms Coffee is easy to miss. Establishment is small…read morewith few places to sit and once a line gets started it becomes harder to sit, relax and hang out. A long line does form due to the many exercise-related classes offered by many businesses within the plaza. Staff were very nice, patient, and helpful. They answered questions and helped pick my drinks. I ordered the "Bloom Latte" with matcha which was the current special and the "Love" latte in a mug. Both were very delicious and flavorful. Pastries are also available but I believe the earlier the visit the more pastry choices you have. I visited around 4:30 pm and brownies were the only pastry available. My drinks were enjoyable so I definitely will try to go earlier in the day to try something new, and maybe get to choose a pastry.

One of my favorite simple coffee drinks in the area is the New Orleans iced coffee here. It's made…read morewith chicory-style cold brew, milk, and simple syrup. Very straightforward, but really well balanced. If you've never had chicory coffee before, it has a deeper, slightly earthy flavor that stands out from a standard cold brew without being overly bitter. It feels inspired by Louisiana/New Orleans-style coffee rather than the super sugary "dessert coffee" trend that a lot of places lean into right now. What I especially appreciate is the price point. At around $5.75, it feels reasonable for a specialty coffee drink that still tastes unique and intentional.

Mother's Day started off great. I stopped by Nook Coffee Bar to surprise my wife with coffee and…read morebreakfast. The line was out the door, but I knew she'd love waking up to a nice cup of coffee, so the wait didn't bother me. I ordered coffee along with three ham and cheese croissants to go. When I got home, my wife was so happy. She ate part of her croissant but didn't finish it. My son did the same and only picked at the edges. I ended up finishing mine and the rest of my son's. About 8 hours later, after grilling dinner, both my wife and I suddenly became extremely sick. Severe stomach pain, nonstop trips to the restroom, and all the signs of food poisoning hit us hard. Our guest had just started eating dinner while my wife and I were both stuck dealing with the symptoms. The symptoms carried throughout the entire night and are still lingering. Both of us have been dealing with fevers, body aches, nausea, stomach cramps, and constant trips to the restroom. It completely ruined what started as such a special Mother's Day for our family. I normally don't leave reviews like this, but I felt it was important to share our experience. I truly hope this was an isolated incident, especially on a busy holiday, but I also hope food handling and quality control are looked into so no other families have to spend Mother's Day ending like ours did.
