Bar none-- one of the best restaurants in SoCal. Just had a friend in from LBC and he was blown away. The food is unmatched-- and Shea and the team are excellent hosts. I've tried the coffee, breakfast sandwich, avocado toast, smoked trout, French toast, crispy potatoes, and the passion fruit pie. All EXCELLENT. Special shout out to the crispy potatoes though. I go to bed at night thinking about them sometimes. read more

Service was great. Small cozy spot with about 3 small table, yet the employees would still bring out the food to everyone eating inside, refilled coffee, and were all very polite. Food: had the breakfast sandwich and avocado toast. Both very fresh and tasty. Love the fennel on avocado toast and sourdough for the sandwich was delicious. Very tasty aioli/mayo type of sauce on the sandwich. Overall, great little gem. Bit pricey but the quality ingredients and tasty recipes are worth it for me. I feel the love in the food. Will definitely come back to try other items. read more

It's a small cafe with minimal seating , but the service is friendly service the staff is very helpful. I had the avocado toast my first time. Went back for more just a week later. Also enjoyed a delicious cup of coffee. read more

This place has the best avocado toast, ricotta toast, everything I've had is just soooooo good ... I will be back again and again!!! And the passion fruit pie is too die for ! read more

My wife has a gluten allergy, so we asked for the gluten free sourdough bread when we ordered the tri tip and muffaletta sandwiches. We shared the sandwiches, they were both amazing. They even took to time to confirm it was an allergy, not just a preference. Would highly recommend read more

Holy cow! Cannot recommend this place enough! Folks, do yourself a favor and swing through for a sandwich. You will not regret it! The service is amazing and the vibe is right on! read more

Happy Mediums Café is everything a great café should be--warm, welcoming, and absolutely delicious. I came in for a quick bite and ended up finding my new favorite spot. Let's talk food: the menu is thoughtful and creative, but the real standout for me was the muffuletta. Hands down, the best I've had outside of New Orleans. The bread was perfectly crusty, the olive salad was tangy and rich, and the meats were layered just right. I'm still thinking about it days later. The service was just as memorable as the food. Friendly, attentive, and genuinely kind--everyone there made me feel like I was a regular, even on my first visit. They took the time to explain the menu, check in at just the right moments, and seemed to truly care that I was enjoying myself. And then there's the people--both staff and patrons. There's a community feel here that's rare. It's the kind of place where conversations flow easily, and it's not unusual to see the owners chatting with guests or someone buying an extra pastry "just because." Happy Mediums Café is one of those rare spots where everything clicks: the food, the vibe, the people. Do yourself a favor--go try that muffuletta. You can thank me later. read more

This place is delicious! I got the corned beef sandwich and the flavors are AMAZING! Please keep it on the menu! We always go to village bread on the weekend and now this will be added to our weekly stop as well! Very clean and the happy yellow color inside makes me want to just stay in there all day! I'm already excited for my next visit! read more

Two different people raved about the AVOCADO TOAST at this place, and I concur....ingredients are seasoned perfectly, fresh dill garnish. Breakfast sandwich which my husband ordered was tasty. The chef/owner is a delightful person who engaged in conversation with us and treated us to "First Time Customer" slice of the Passion Fruit pie which is superb. I appreciated coffee and water served in washable, re-usable containers instead of the omnipresent styrofoam or plastic. I'm sure we'll return and also recommend to others. read more

What a great spot. Breakfast sandwich? Best I've ever had. The bread was light and fluffy with a perfect crunch. The passion fruit pie was also delightful. Staff were super friendly and accommodating. Will definitely be coming back! read more

What a great find! Their food is unique and healthy and high on flavor and texture. Absolutely delicious! We had quite a few dishes, loved the Caesar salad , the Roasted Cauliflower focaccia flat bread sandwich, the scrumptious Butternut Squash soup along with Pimiento Cheese sandwich. The Valentines appetizer with Burrata cheese complimented by blood orange, beets, etc was amazing flavor! If that wasn't enough we splurged on a dessert of tasty bread tartine with preserves and ricotta based cream! Oh man was that good! Then we tried the Passion Fruit Pie with the purest passion fruit flavor with graham crumble crust and meringue. This was my absolute favorite! Overall the place is pleasant and friendly, like the chef and his wife! Lovely people! Give their business some love! read more

I love love love this place! Their menu is so unique. It's right down my alley. How often do you find watermelon radishes at restaurants? Everything is so fresh. I don't mind paying a little bit more for quality food. And right now, it's my go to place for healthy food since I'm having my house renovated. I feel so blessed to have this place so close to my house. You gotta try it, won't disappoint. read more

We as a community MUST protect this gem at all costs. Ever since my wife and I discovered happy mediums, it has become a favorite of ours. Coming to the shopping center on the weekend, getting a matcha from lucid, and coming to HM to enjoy their delicious food, amazing customer service, meticulously curated playlists, and overall vibey ambiance is something that we genuinely look forward to and Notably miss when we're unable to make it. I genuinely have been hoping they purchase the vacant space next door so that they can build and expand to their already dope aesthetic. We moved to Beaumont a few years back and our biggest bone to pick with the area was the lack of delicious food options but HM has definitely filled that void. Prices might "seem" high until you actually try the food; then you immediately taste the freshness, quality, and love thats put into their dishes. I've tried almost everything on the menu and can honestly say that everything is delicious and unique in its own right (mufaletta, roasted cauliflower, and the potato dish are all top tier). Shea is a super cool guy who always shares a smile, says hello, and makes sure we're enjoying our meal whenever he sees us. Definitely grateful to have a place like this in our back yard ! read more

Happy Mediums has some of the best sandwiches I've ever had, and everything else I've tried has been delicious. One reason their sandwiches (I've had the muffaletta and classic hoagie and tried the roasted cauliflower) is that they use Village Bread products (if you haven't been, run across the way and get something, you won't regret it). The sandwiches are filling and you'll be thinking about them long after you've eaten. Also, the first time I went I told the person at the counter that I hadn't been before and he gave me a complimentary slice of passion fruit pie. It would have been worth going just for that. Support a high-quality, friendly local place! read more

Not only is there food amazing and there passionfruit pie the best pie I have ever had but there service is.. unlike your norm. they are so kind and I went in with my 4 day old babygirl and they gave me multiple complimentary items. Salad, soup, pie, seriously just the best. Will definitely be my regular sandwich spot. read more

Absolutely amazing food here...down to the tropical tasting iced tea and the fruity coffee! Highly recommend the two sandwiches we split: the dreamy roasted cauliflower sandwich on an herby foccacia flatbread that I think is up there with my all time favorite sandos ever, and the hot pimento cheese which we also loved. Couldn't get over the picked apples and extra dill on it. Don't sleep on the passion fruit pie! Cannot WAIT to return and eat the whole menu!!! read more

So bomb. $19 for a sandwich is a little steep but I love seeing more small businesses in town! read more

I am very scrutinizing when it comes to new places and new concepts because so often times they just do not work. This place is a gem of all gems. I am thoroughly impressed with every item that my family and I ordered. The quality of food and the creativity literally blows my mind. I need to mention that the passionfruit pie is by far the best dessert I've ever had in my entire life on this planet!!! read more

Wow!!! I had enjoyed Happy Medium back when they were doing pop ups. I was in Calimesa and saw their permanent location. I got the muffeletta. I love sandwiches. This is one of the best sandwiches I have ever enjoyed. The giardiniera was so fresh. They must make it in house. The bread it was on was homemade-it was pure bliss. They have grain bowls, toasts, homemade pie and more. I can't stop thinking about the food. read more

People! Support this little sandwich shop. There is nothing like it around here. The food reminds me of a place I might visit in San Fran. If you are a foodie you will be in heaven because there is nothing like it in Calimesa/Yucaipa. Fresh fresh fresh: fresh flavors, fresh menu and chill environment. They use the bread from the neighboring bakery. A true "boutique" sandwich and more shop. Try the passion fruit pie. read more
