This place gets BUSY, for good reason. Their drinks are the perfect ratio of espresso, milk, and goodness. We've tried several drinks here. Coconut caramel was a terrific summer flavor; we also love the Fall options. Cookie Butter has had us returning for more, and their everyday salted caramel is a perfect level of sweet yet the espresso proudly shows up in the flavor. I tend to like my coffee a tiny bit sweet- some may need the flavor toned down a bit. The baristas are happy to try to accommodate your preference. Be patient on Saturdays and prime hours. The line can be out the door. They do have a mobile app option to order ahead and pick up. There are tables and chairs on the patio and a few inside if you prefer to stay for a bit. read more

The pumpkin chai was very sweet, but I did not mind! They have various fall drinks & I am excited to try the rest (: The matcha with banana cream was great, though it could be milky for some. You can order ahead to avoid waiting, as the space inside is small. I look forward to trying the other drinks and have a good experience every time! read more

Kraemer's Coffee is one of my longtime favorites! I've been coming here for years, and their Banana Cream Latte is 1000/1000! hands down my absolute favorite! It's SO good and definitely a must try. You also can't go wrong with their breakfast egg sandwiches! Everything is delicious, and the customer service is always great. The staff is so friendly and welcoming, which makes coming here even better. If you're in Riverside and looking for a great local coffee shop, definitely give Kraemer's a try! 10/10 every time! read more

I went to Kraemer's to try their fall menu. I had been once before but hadn't returned because probably the hours don't really work for me. They close really early at 3 pm so i hardly get the chance to go but luckily i was able to stop but this day to try Thor fall drinks. They had lots of options on their fall menu as well as their regular menu and also serve breakfast or lunch items. There is also always a wait time/long line here and the inside is super small and crowded which is another downside. But the quality of their coffee is really good and I've also never had an issue with service either. This time i got their pumpkin cream latte which was really good. I will say the price was fair and even included the pumpkin foam. It was a little on the sweet side but overall i did enjoy it. I do wanna return to try some of their other flavors. read more

I had seen Kramers on multiple lists of must go coffee shops in the IE for a while and I finally made it. No surprise, it was busy when I got there. The line moved quickly. I ordered a banana latte and breakfast sandwich. Both were delicious. I really appreciated how much bacon came on the sandwich. There is seating both inside and outside. I'd definitely go back read more

The coffee is amazing. They have a large variety of season drinks which is amazing. Every latte has distinct flavorings. The food is so worth the price. Parking is easy. Not a lot of space to do work. Great spot for a quick breakfast or lunch. read more

Customer service is hit and miss. An older woman with black hair and glasses is extremely unpleasant to deal with, which is unfortunate because the coffee is pretty good. Not only was she unhelpful, she got our entire order wrong, and was rude. Would recommend spending your money elsewhere for better customer service. read more

Warning: DON'T COME HERE IF YOU HAVE NO PATIENCE AND OR ARE IN A HURRY. ‼there's a Starbucks up the street take your butt over there if you're in a rush. This place was PACKED when I came around 10AM. I walked in through what I thought was the front door and not too long after, I saw the line out the door to the actual entrance. From the looks of the menu, it seems more like a cafe than a restaurant, hence the warning. The had a lot of good options.. very difficult to choose from. They have a banana latte that's house made, a teddy bear latte, cookie butter latte.. I went with a plain honey latte with 3 shots and oatmilk. Simple, not too sweet, and gave me the runs 20 minutes later. Oh yeah, totally worth it.. good stuff!! If you like actual coffee and not the watered down all sugar shit, I give it to this place. Just don't come if you're in a hurry. Would wait 25 minutes again, totally recommend. read more

Loved the breakfast and strawberry matcha from here so good. Definitely will be back.

Stopped by Kraemer's this morning and ordered the Lucky Charms latte, and it ended up being such a nostalgic little treat. The flavor has this sweet, comforting vibe that immediately brought me back to childhood. Love the addition of the lucky charms marshmallows on top as well. I've been coming to Kraemer's for about a decade now, and it still has that familiar, cozy feel every time I walk in. Even as they've grown and added more staff over the years, the service has stayed warm and genuinely friendly. You can tell the people working here care about what they're doing, and that consistency is a big part of why I keep coming back. It does get busy, especially in the mornings. I've seen the line reach the door more than once, but they move quickly and keep things flowing. Even on the crowded days, I'm usually in and out faster than I expect, which I really appreciate. Their signature lattes usually land around seven to eight dollars. It's a little on the higher side, but I love trying their specialty drinks, and I'm always happy to support a local spot that puts real effort into what they serve. read more

Great spot! The prices are super reasonable. The sandwich pictured was like $6.50. It had a jalapeño cheese bagel that seemed sooo fresh, not like straight out of a package. What would be nice is an option for chipotle mayo, that would take it over the top. Great, regardless. Matcha was delicious! On top of that, best part was very friendly service. All my items came out fast. I'll be back soon and highly recommended! Thanks Kraemers! read more

I didn't know about this place until I found it on Instagram, and I'm so glad I did! It's a hidden gem tucked inside the Brockton Arcade. I had the breakfast croissant sandwich and a dot cake latte, and everything was delicious. The sandwich and coffee came to about $17, which is a little pricey, but I really enjoyed both the food and the drink. It does get busy, so be prepared to wait in line. Overall, I'd definitely come back again! read more

I always order a size small coffee because I never really finish my drink. Today's visit was my first time here and there was a line of people waiting to order so I knew right away this place HAD to be amazing. Also while waiting in line (which went by really fast btw) I overheard some ladies saying they come here 3 days a week because it's so good. I ordered the salted maple latte and a bagel breakfast sandwich. Thank god I ordered the large because I've never sucked down a drink so fast in my life! I felt like Edward when he bit into Bella's neck. I couldn't stop. Within a minute my drink was gone I highly reccomend the drink and bagel sandwich which was delicious btw! It was so soft and perfect. The customer service is excellent and everyone there both customers and employees just seemed so happy to be there. Unfortunately I live out of town but I will stop by every time I'm in Riverside :) the ambiance was clean and cozy vibes. read more

Been here a few times, nail it almost every single time tbh. Coffee is 10/10 imo, good consistency and good flavor. Breakfast bagel also good texture and flavor. As far as the ambience, you have to be considerate that this is a busy spot, busy for a good reason. The few times i've been here, there is a little line but I don't mind waiting usually no longer than 5-10 min. I believe they use the SECRET ingredient, which is love! haha enjoy your visit at Kreamers! read more

Kraemer's Coffee Bistro - Spanish latte and breakfast bagel - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Riverside, California

Been on a coffee and tea kick recently and this place does not disappoint. I ordered an iced strawberry matcha and it did not disappoint. I don't expect to ever be treated special in any business, but the staff here sure made my day. The barista took time and personally walked up to me and asked if I wanted Foam and all the toppings. Then she proceeded to bring my to go order straight to the table I was sitting and waiting. That's great service and a personal touch I will always remember. I don't expect to find this hidden gem out here in Riverside. Kraemer's oozes a nice chilled atmosphere with a nice lived in vibe that makes it feel like a sanctuary in a city and not just another coffee shop. The strawberry matcha and the jalapeño cheese bagel with onions, egg and tomatoes I ordered were fantastic. The scrambled egg were freshly made and you can taste that it wasn't premade or powdered. Great value with just the right vibes, I will come back! read more

The young blonde girl was awesome, very funny and engaging. Staff here are always amazing and welcoming. Food is the best and coffee is way better than big chains. Definitely a must try. read more

This shop is the cutest spot! It is teenie tiny and there are 2 entrances (the side entrance puts you in line btw) but the menu is bomb. Sandwiches are so good that I completely forgot to photograph it! Everyone was friendly and kindly answered my questions, to include other patrons when I was curious what fun drink they had. Seasonal menu is fun and then they have their regular menus. Inside has some tables but it is a little loud for working or doing homework, but the tables outside were awesome since the weather was beautiful out. read more

Excellent service! Everyone working was very kind and patient as deciding what to order was tough due to how good the menu looked! Very cozy comfortable atmosphere. The brown butter cookie latte was delicious not too sweet but not too subtle that it tastes like a regular coffee. Had a great balance of flavor while still tasting like a festive holiday treat my sister very much enjoyed the matcha! We also tried the avo toast & a breakfast sandwich that were absolutely fantastic and the portion was with the price and there was a lot more flavor than expected for a coffee shop menu! Will definitely stop here next time I'm in the area. Thanks for a wonderful experience! read more

Riverside is severely lacking in terms of quality breakfast and lunch places, which leaves Kraemer's as the only "decent" spot around us which isn't saying much. First off, some staff have very poor attitudes and the female owner is included in that assessment. If it is even a millisecond past 11am, you will not have the option to order breakfast. There is absolutely zero exceptions even if you arrived before 11am and waited in line for over 15 minutes because it takes an absurd amount of time for customers to be rang up at the cash register. If you order a panini and are expecting anything that should come standard when you order said food item, you will be absolutely shocked at what Kraemer's defines a panini as. You'll get toast with room temperature cheese and ham. Nothing is melted whatsoever. It's actually laughable that they served something like this to us. They also use Torani syrups -- not homemade. The coffee is also extremely sub par. I can say with confidence that I'll never ever come back here and I suggest you don't waste your time or money here either. read more

Really solid coffee shop in Riverside! Decided to try it out on a random Saturday around 11:30 am. Line was out the door but it went by quick! The lattes are insanely good! Love that they have so many different options, I'm sure you'll find a flavor you like even if you're picky! I got the seasonal banana bread nut latte and it was really good! The banana cold foam is just perfect! My hubby got a vanilla latte with cold foam and he said it's correctly the best one he's had! They also have sandwiches and breakfast items that we'll have to try on our next visit since the coffee itself was good enough for us to visit again! read more

This was my first time here, and unfortunately, it was not a good experience. I waited about 30 minutes after ordering a bagel before asking about my order. I was told they were preparing it, but a few minutes later, someone came over and told me they were out of American cheese--which I never ordered in the first place. I explained what I had actually ordered, and then they came back again to tell me they were completely out of bagels. At that point, I just asked for my money back. After waiting all that time and getting so much confusion about a simple order, all I received was a "so sorry." I was really disappointed, especially since this was my first time here. I understand that places can run out of items, but I wish they had communicated that from the beginning instead of making me wait 30+ minutes for something they didn't even have. read more

The coffee here is delicious and fun in terms of flavor combos, but it's definitely on the pricy side. That being said, they're pretty friendly and the store is decorated nice, but it's always cramped, line out the door in the heat, and the line management is not that good. Can't really come here frequently because I don't have 30 minutes to spare on work days. If you have a lot of time on your hands, I recommend this spot. read more

Customer Service needs severe work. Older lady with black hair(tattooed) and middle age blonde lady who is always on the register have the worst attitudes I'm not sure why they are even upfront with that attitude mind as well stay in the back. The service alone is enough to keep us away. read more

The staff 0/10 Drinks 0/10 Food 0/10 This place has nasty coffee and matcha they taste like milk and sweetener they taste artificial how could anyone possibly like this nasty cafe I left with a migraine please don't support this place I'm glad toasted is going across the street maybe they'll have more respect and ambition for their paying customers. The lady in the front with the fake tattoo eyebrows needs some serious anger management classes, what is up with the attitude? The mad dogs? I am nothing but respectful to everyone she made me very self conscious I asked a polite question about the menu because I never been here before but she was just judging me, she yelled at me I didn't go to this cafe to get yelled at and humiliated I was excited I brought my friends here and I had the worst day of my life. The lady in the front also was talking to a friend for 15 mins while I was waiting in line after there long annoying conversation the friend ordered, the cashier didn't even welcome us and rushed our order why couldn't she do that to her friend????? read more

Drink was good, but good God, $7.15?! I don't usually go for such foo-foo drinks but after seeing someone review the Oreo Latte on Instagram, I decided to drop in and try one as a treat. I really liked the fact that there were actual cookies in the drink and it wasn't overly sweet, which I was worried about. I have a REALLY hard time justifying the price for sure, but as a one-off treat, fine. The service was also very friendly and the shop was clean. It's small inside and I could see it getting cramped during busier hours but you can tell they do the best they can with the space they're working with. read more

We got two coffees the lady who took our order was nice and helpful but when I asked how long our drinks where going to take since we saw a lot of people get their drinks before ours . I was just curious about the wait time , which the girl handing the drinks and calling the names gave me so much attitude. I asked nicely and apologized for asking too. Then proceeds to tell me "their lattes they take long " with the nasties tone. Then proceeds to laugh . Def not coming back read more

Mango sticky rice matcha was perfection! Perfect balance of sweet and matcha! Service was fast and the vibe was relaxed inside.

Had such a great first time here! Everything was delicious it was fantastic from the start. Long lines always tell me it's a great place.

I got the marshmallow crème top match (I think that's what it was called) and the employee's favorite sandwich, which was soooo good! Definitely recommended. read more

Kraemer's is a must stop for breakfast. I preordered online for pickup at 9:05 and my food and drink was ready by 9:08 am. There is parking behind the strip this is located in as well as on the street in front, but this may be a challenge if it's busy. There's lots of seating inside and outside, but this place is hopping, even on a weekday. I ordered a breakfast sandwich with English muffin, egg, bacon, avocado, and American cheese. EXCELLENT. Hot and delicious - soft eggs (not overcooked), crunchy English muffin, creamy cheese, fresh avocado, and crispy bacon. Generous amount of eggs, holds shape well while eating and doesn't easily fall apart. I also ordered a tiramisu iced latte with oat milk. Delicious! Cocoa powder on top of creamy coffee, actually tasted like tiramisu. Overall - delicious food, busy workers, tasty drinks, worth it all around. read more

I really like the drinks , but when it comes to service it's honestly not the greatest. Management has to improve . I had made a mobile order through there website and time pick up was at 10:30am which I arrived 10 mins early but had to wait extra 35 mins . I have a toddler and it's very overstimulating and upsetting having to still wait meanwhile staffing is just chit chatting which I find it ok but not ok to the point for mobile orders and customers waiting for service to be served it's just a lack for satisfaction for service 3/5 read more

I had a brunch date at 10:30am and we met here at Kraemer's. Pretty busy around this time but luckily there's plenty of parking at the back of the building. The shop is quite small with a few tables indoor. There are tables outside, as well. The decor is cute and the facility was clean. Although it was a little busy, the line moved quickly. As we got to the register, we stood there for a good 20-30 seconds without the cashier looking up at us. So we waited. She finally looked up, looking a little annoyed, and asked us what we wanted. No friendly greeting...no hello...no smile. So off the bat, we definitely didn't feel welcome. I ordered the banana cream matcha with oatmilk that everyone seems to rave about, Dubai chocolate latte, croissant bacon & egg sandwich, and an avocado toast. However, the lady handing out the orders was super kind (I didn't catch her name but she had cute colors in her hair). The latte was watered down. I can barely taste the matcha and tasted mainly of oatmilk. My avacado toast was burnt so all I tasted was charcoal, but the avocado was good. The croissant sandwich was okay. We were pleasantly surprised that the Dubai chocolate latte was actually really good so I highly recommend. Unfortunately, even after hearing all the rave of this place, our first experience here wasn't so great and quite disappointing. read more

Bagel is soft and fresh egg fresh everything fresh!! Chocolate muffin! Oh boy! That is just heaven...

I wouldn't want to come during a rush if I was looking to sit and chat but still good enough for a pick up. The vegetables they used for my veggie sandwich were sooo fresh. Only half a sandwich was fulfilling. For my drink, I purchased the salted honey latte. It's definitely on the sweeter side but the shots were pulled nicely. I'm really impressed! read more
