Well done! This mix of delicious food was bursting with freshness and different flavors to def wake your taste buds! My kids surprised me with a birthday picnic, they are vegan and tbh there's not a lot of choices to suffice. They love Happy Mediums because it dies just that for them. Everything shown except for the lemon curd toast was something they could enjoy So good! read more

Very solid sandwich spot in the Inland empire. I love everything about the branding, the vibe of the shop, and even how friendly the staff were. I kept seeing this place pop up on my Instagram and decided we it my time to try it. It was a little cold that day but we ended up eating outside. I got a Reuben sandwich and since it was my first time they gave me a free slice of pie. The sandwich was very filling, I like how everything seemed very fresh/local, the sauce paired well with the sandwich and didn't over power. The second time I came in I got the hoagie with turkey. Honestly I think everything is good the attention to detail and care for each sandwich matched what they were as a brand. Simple but delicious. The menu is very extensive and they partner with the local bakery next door so everything comes out fresh. Would recommend come at anytime of the day. They got breakfast all day every day. read more

I don't even know how to start! Happy Mediums came highly recommended by Lucid Coffee (in the same shopping center); Lucid Coffee is incidentally also really amazing Coffee, so try that too. Anyway, my wife and I came in for the first time last week and ordered the avocado toast and the smoked fish toast. Since it was our first time, we also got a piece passion fruit pie. The avocado toast was hands down the best avocado toast we have ever had in our entire life, and my wife orders avocado toast at most places she goes to for brunch. This avocado toast is leagues better than anything else we have had. I will usually prepare myself smoked salmon and cream cheese on a bagel for breakfast, so naturally I ordered the smoked fish toast. I can't begin to tell you all of the amazing flavors and textures both of these dishes had. Absolutely divine! The service is amazing and they even gave us a complimentary piece of pie. This pie...OMG! This pie! My wife hates passion fruit, but this pie is her new guilty pleasure. Made in a way that is very reminiscent of key lime pie, this pie is sure to keep you coming back here! Since we are foodies, we went up to San Francisco for the weekend and partook in a pretty incredible food scene. It was good, but we couldn't wait to come back to Happy Mediums for another brunch! We came in today and ordered the roasted cauliflower and the classic hoagie (avocado). Both were absolutely delectable! The burst of flavors and textures were so complex that these dishes cannot be described as anything short of creative genius. We also had the French toast bread pudding to finish off the meal. You know how when you take a bite of something that is so surprisingly incredible that it knocks you back and makes you lose your train of thought?!?! Every single bite was like that! Each bite was more delectable than the last. There is seating inside and outside, which we have chosen to sit outside both times we have ate here. The restaurant is very clean, their coffee and tea is absolutely delightful and the atmosphere is light, fun, and friendly. I cannot recommend this place enough...really, I was stopping people in the parking lot to rave about how awesome this place is. Everyone that I know that has eaten here say the same thing...this food is life changing! read more

We don't live nearby and just stopped in while running errands after seeing the great reviews. Honestly didn't expect it to be this good. The space is cozy and lively, and the staff were genuinely friendly. They walked us through their popular dishes, gave us time to decide, and never felt pushy. They even surprised us with dessert on the house, which felt really thoughtful and rare these days. We ordered the crispy potatoes, avocado toast, and half a muffaletta. The avocado toast absolutely lives up to the hype. Seriously is THE best I've ever had. The bread was toasted to the perfect crunch, the avocado was at that ideal ripeness, and the jammy eggs were cooked perfectly (which I really like since I'm not a fan of poached eggs). The orange purée and dill added this bright, zesty sweetness that made the whole dish feel surprisingly elevated but also well-balanced. The half muffaletta was a generous portion and was thick, flavorful, and a little messy in the best way. My boyfriend loved it. The crispy potatoes were also done really well. Crispy on the outside, soft inside, and not greasy at all. The passion fruit pie was amazing too. Super intense passion fruit flavor, like multiple fruits packed into one slice. It's not overly sweet and leans a little tart (which I loved), and the crust was perfectly crumbly. I can see why almost every table had one. The French toast wasn't my personal favorite since I'm not big on cinnamon, but the lemon and basil combination was really interesting and I can see others loving it. The black currant iced tea was unsweetened, smooth, and really refreshing with no bitterness, probably cold brewed. Very refreshing. Easily a 10/5. This is the kind of place you hesitate to tell people about because you want to keep it to yourself but it's too good not to share. Worth mentioning pricing is really fair. read more

10/10 The best avocado toast I've ever had!!! The combination of flavors was amazing. It was savory. The eggs were creamy. The sauce was slightly tangy and the dill on top gave it a nice freshness. I'd come back just for this. The inside is very clean and the staff is friendly. They gave us a free dessert to try. read more

Finally visited this spot and loved it so much! It's a small space but has a few tables to dine-in. The vibe is minimalistic, chill and so cute. we were warmly greeted by one of the workers and he was super friendly! everything we got tasted freshly made and flavorful. I would highly recommend the fish toast, i was hesitant but it ended up being my favorite item. He even gave us a complimentary potato dish. would recommend checking out if you're in the area read more

This place meets a lot of what I'm looking for in a 5 star food establishment: delicious healthy food, friendly and fast service, and aesthetic/chill ambiance. I ordered the Roasted Cauliflower and it definitely surprised me. It has so much flavor. It was about $20 which is still a lot for a single order in my opinion but I think it's worth it. The bread it's served on tastes like garlic naan bread. Roasted Cauliflower: 5/5 read more

Stopped by this small brunch spot in Calimesa next to Village Bread last weekend and it was pretty good. It's not easy to find places like this in the area with creative menus and quality ingredients. We decided to go with the grain bowl (tasty with good mix of components), ricotta toast (never had asparagus and herbs with ricotta before, it works!), and the smashed potato (horseradish crema goes well with perfectly prepared potato). They even gave us a free slice of passion fruit pie since it was our first time there - very delicious! read more

We went back when we were in town and it's as good as last time! My partner and I shared the classic hoagie which is enough for 2 people. I also ordered the crispy potato and we loved it! It was so good!!!!! Both were flavorful and yummy. read more

Give this place a chance if you're near! Their Ruben sandwich was absolutely fantastic. Passionfruit pie could use more passionfruit flavor but otherwise also delicious (cream topping was divine). I also appreciated getting called by a worker to notify me the drinks we ordered were out and to ask for what we would instead. Speaks to their amazing customer service. It seems like their crew love working there, and the food tastes like it! read more

Our visit was absolutely soul nourishing in every way imaginable! Walking in the eatery, it's humbly artistic. From the moment we walked in, the warmth embraced my partner and I. We were greeted with great enthusiasm and calmness at the ordering counter. Upon looking over the menu, we noticed the simplicity and intentionality. I ordered the grain bowl. Partner ordered the breakfast sandwich. We shared the passion fruit pie.. and literally, with every bite tears began swell. Love in the craft of creating such an experience.. thank you, Happy Mediums for becoming a part of our community! read more

Amazing restaurant, service, and food. It is innovative, and unassuming. The food is what you would expect in San Francisco - delicious, fresh, and never boring. They do basic things very very well. For example, I had a breakfast sandwich this morning with their homemade sausage. There is an incredible aïoli on it, on perfectly toasted sesame focaccia bread. Come and support this business! I hope it stays forever. read more

Happy Mediums Is Anything But "Medium." Happy Mediums is the kind of café that quietly ruins your standards for all other cafés. At first glance, it's effortlessly cool--warm, inviting, and unpretentious in that we-know-what-we're-doing way. But then the food arrives, and suddenly this is no longer a casual stop. This is an experience. The muffaletta deserves its own standing ovation. Perfectly balanced, deeply flavorful, and generously layered, it's the kind of sandwich that makes you pause mid-bite because your brain needs a second to catch up. Savory, bright, satisfying--this is how a muffaletta is supposed to taste. And just when you think you've peaked... the passionfruit pie shows up and casually steals the show. Tart, silky, and beautifully restrained, it hits that rare sweet spot where dessert feels indulgent without being overwhelming. One bite turns into several, and suddenly you're considering ordering another "for later." (You won't wait.) The café-style vibe is relaxed but intentional, and the service is genuinely warm--friendly without hovering, knowledgeable without being pushy. It feels like a place run by people who care deeply about quality and somehow make it all look easy. Happy Mediums isn't trying too hard. It doesn't need to. It's confidently excellent, and that's what makes it special. If you're local, this should already be on your rotation. If you're visiting, make it a priority. Five stars, no hesitation. I'll be back--probably sooner than I should admit. read more

I use yelp constantly for reviews, but rarely leave one. So when I first saw that Happy Mediums had. 5.0 rating across 100+ reviews I couldn't believe it. Every single review is spot on. This was my first time here, and the owner came out to deliver my food and greet me. He then proceeded to ask if this was my first time here and said "First timers get pie for free". How could I say no? The Breakfast Sandwich is perfect. The pie is perfect. The atmosphere is perfect. The servers and service is excellent. This place deserves and earned all the 5 star reviews. read more

Happy Mediums catered a celebration of life at my home. Dealing with Bonnie was a sheer pleasure. She made recommendations and some modifications to their sandwiches to arrive at a perfect array of flavors and selections. They delivered exactly at the time promised, and plated all the selections onto serving trays very efficiently. The presentation was beautiful and they provided a description of each item on cards, so everyone knew what they were selecting. Everyone was blown away with the food. I was surprised to see that Bonnie brought to-go containers, but it was a brilliant idea because many of the guests took advantage. Everyone was happy to bring leftovers home to share with others, or continue the fantastic taste sensation for themselves. read more

Halfway through my Breakfast sandwich, I was already planning my next visit! The food was delicious, so fresh tasting. We also had the Muffuletta sandwich. They offer this one as a half, but get the whole so you have another one to enjoy the next day. Also, because we were first time guests, they included a slice of the passion fruit pie. Wow! It was tangy and creamy. So good! The service was friendly and welcomed. The space is small but very comfortable. Guests were kind about moving on and cleaning up after themselves so you can grab a table. Like I said, when can we make another visit to Happy Mediums? read more

Happy Mediums is the sandwich and food shop in the former Village Bread location in Calimesa. It is outstanding. We had the avocado toast, breakfast sandwich (with the house-made sausage) and the crispy potato. All excellent. This will be our first of many visits. My Gen-Z daughter said the avocado toast was the best she's ever had, and noted the extras on this one - a passion fruit puree and a mild chili oil. Of course it used Village Bread for its sourdough base. It looked fabulous. The owner noted their pagers reach to Village Bread and even to George's Market next door. So you can put in your order, shop for your goods at the two other places, and grab your sandwich afterward when it's ready! If you're into locally-sourced ingredients, and savory recipes that will surprise you, then this is the place for you. read more
