    I had a great time today! Amazing service, atmosphere, and food! Ordered a medium w/ açaí and coconut as the base. I wish they could give me another açaí bowl hahaha. They give unlimited toppings or I think so? Or at least for the fruits. And they have a bunch of toppings! Food was amazing and when I asked for healthy food ideas they gave it, they got so much seeds and other healthy ingredients, will be coming here again! Love this place!

    My creation.

    This place is so good! All the flavors work so well together and all the fruit is super fresh. I got a tropical base, with banana, cantaloupe, strawberries and blueberries. Topped off with vanilla chia pudding, honey granola, sweet coconut, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and a drizzle of honey, peanut butter and agave. Yum! What a sweet and salty treat! The place is clean and service was great too. The woman who helped us was super sweet and patient even when we asked for a few samples. Great place!

    Very friendly and greeted right when we walked in the door, we were able to taste the difference options for the base. I tried the tropical & Yum that was delicious. My daughter tried the coconut she loved it. I got two flavors the 24 ounce which was the açai and tropical as the base as well as so many different options. It's a must try. It was not too busy. Great location parking was easy in and out on the corner of La Sierra and Magnolia Avenue.

    A very nice refreshing juice/açaí bar! When I entered I was greeted and this place is much different you can choose from different bases for the açaí bowl flavor recommend traditional and mango together! The service was amazing lots of smiles and you can tell they love what they do! It was a super clean area with examples of what to choose from. Can't forget about them allowing you to try the samples so you will love it! Great service

    The place is very nice and clean. The staff is very friendly. The açai bowl is very good. I will definitely be back. Also the price is a lot cheaper than other places.

    Cutting board

    I really love this place, but the cutting board gives me mixed feelings. I'd really hope they would change it out it's concerning. Owner do better we love this place but please see our point of view. We just want a sanitary place where fruit is being cut multiple times a day. Other then that place is amazing

    I love getting acai when I'm back in california, and I wanted to try Flavor theory because of the good reviews! I got a medium bowl, with acai smoothie blend and lavender taro as bases, matcha chia seed pudding, and a bunch of different toppings (which are unlimited)! Everything was delicious, fresh, and worked well together even though it sounds very random. It also filled me up quite a bit! Next time, I think I might get just the regular acai to try it

    5 Stars - The Best Açaí Bowls! Flavor Theory blew me away! I've never been to an açaí bowl spot with so many options--it was almost overwhelming in the best way possible. Everything was incredibly fresh and perfectly sweet, and the flavors were amazing. I went over a month ago, and I still can't stop thinking about it. I find myself constantly craving it! This is definitely more of a walk-in, grab-and-go kind of place, as there were only about four tables for seating. The service was great--fast, friendly, and efficient. If you're an açaí lover, this place is a must-visit. I'll definitely be back!

    Tej is the KING of these bowls. Got the medium 24 oz. Step 1 choose your bowl size Step 2 choose your base Step 3 choose granola Step 4 choose chia pudding Step 5 choose unlimited toppings* *(That will fit in your bowl) Well I had tropical base that consist of pineapple coconut mango spirulina and lemon juice with coconut as the base and that's a sorbet and I had hemp heart granola with taro and matcha Chia pudding with strawberries kiwi pineapple blueberries and sweet milk with honey and go coconut and dates and was phenomenal.

    July 13 2025 on Sunday I was enjoying my taro until I started chewing pieces of glass and had to spit this out I order 3 times a week but not anymore after this smh..... be careful when eating from here it can be dangerous

    Hey Flavor Theory, what happened to the portions? I know times are tough but this bowl looks kinda sad
    Miyeon L.

    Hey there Flavor Theory, I know times are tough and inflation is affecting all of us, but the most recent Acai bowl was just sad, with only a little bit of Acai and the strawberries were on the brink of becoming wine. Definitely different from the Flavor Theory in its hay day when it first opened. Rather than improving over time, it has become run down and lackluster - which is too bad. This used to be THE best place to get an Acai bowl in the IE, but my most recent visit has me thinking otherwise.

    The açaí also had a weird metallic taste. Fruit was minimal can't even see it. Do not recommend.

The…read moreladies who helped us were knowledgeable, patient, friendly, accommodating, honestly just super cool people. Sweet Latte with orange blossom and vanilla bean syrups: 5/5. I originally wanted to try just the orange blossom syrup, but the baristas suggested that vanilla bean syrup be added to tone down the potency of the orange blossom syrup while complementing it at the same time. This was a great rec since it was an enjoyable combo that didn't lose flavor after all the ice was diluted. Chocolate Chip Cookie: 5/5. A satisfying cookie that tasted better than it looks. I say this cuz I didn't see chocolate chips or chunks breaking through the dough, and the dough color was pretty pale, but looks can be deceiving, as this was a yummy treat. S'mores Brownie: 4/5. Super sweet and chocolatey and fudgy. Kinda sticky and messy due to the marshmallow topping and high sugar content, but they provide utensils for easy eating. Parking in the attached lot was quite small and cramped, but apparently there was additional parking behind the plaza. The shop was also a bit small, but some seating was available both inside and outside the shop.

Their coffee, tea, and baked goods are fantastic, but the main reason I love this place is because it's very cozy and the perfect place to read, study, catch up with a friend, or go on a date. They have a special, themed menu that changes every month. There is almost always seating available. They have a small book exchange, often sell local art, have cute merch, and just opened up a bakery right next door with extra seating. I'm kind of a snobbish third-wave coffee person and although this place isn't trying to be that way, it still is my favorite spot because of the overall vibe, how genuinely kind and down to earth the baristas are, and how comfortable it is. A lot of coffee shops are so brightly lit and trying to be hipster still in 2026, but this place is just kind of homey and the classic cozy coffee shop we all want to go to. So if you're a hardcore coffee connoisseur and are looking for the highest quality coffee, this might not be your spot. If you're looking for something with yummy drinks and baked goods with a chill environment you'll be very comfortable in, this is 100% your spot.

I decided I needed to take a detour to a coffee shop since we already kinda got lost. Deep Barrel Roasters & Creamery, is located in a small and old strip mall in old town Norco. Or at least I think it is. I'm not familiar with the area. I can tell you though, that navigation had us driving through newer developments and then the old part of Norco before we finally arrived. I thought we got even more lost at first. The place was actually pretty packed inside and after having our drinks and pastries, I can totally see why. The first half of the building is the cafe where you'll be greeted with some cute and funny coffee signs. There's two large shelves full of their own coffee beans of different roasts. They have a few small tables to sit and enjoy your orders, but note it is a bit of a tight fit in there. They also have a coffee bar where some people sat in front of the baristas. Past the cafe side is the creamery. I was in a rush and didn't have a chance to take a look. What we ordered; 1) Hot Mocha Rocha with soy milk - 5/5 stars. I forgot to ask for this as half sweet, but either way, it was absolutely delicious. Rich and very flavorful. 2) Iced Mocha Rocha - 5/5 stars. Just as delicious as the hot version. 3) pistachio muffin - 3/5 stars. This muffin had a generous amount of actual pistachio baked into the muffin itself which I liked, however, the muffin had more of an artificial pistachio flavor for me. I still ate it but I wasn't in love with that one. 4) chocolate croissant - 5/5 stars. This was such a hit, we ran out right away. Everyone in our group attacked these so fast. I have to say, I am SAD that I live so far from Deep Barrel Roasters & Creamery. They have a lot of pastries, ice cream including deep fried ice cream, and beverages. I absolutely loved this place and look forward to visiting them again. Next time, I for sure will grab a dozen or more to share with the family and bring some home, and we will definitely grab some frozen treats too. Deep Barrel, is a gem. Norco, sure is lucky to have them. They are a must if you are ever in the area.
