Sad, Sad, Sad.... Cass (cashier/employee) needs a class on etiquette, respect and a common sense way of dealing with patrons. I ordered breakfast and waited quite awhile for my order. As I was about to question my order, I literally watched my meal be delivered to a couple a few tables away. I saw Cass walk away thinking nothing of it. She was soon called back to identify the order being delivered incorrectly. She proceeded to take each meal ( two separate plates) back to her work station before figuring out it was our order. She walked over to our table and proceeded to tell me that there was a mix up on my order (I'll give her that) but when I explained that I wasn't comfortable with not knowing if the food had been handled, Cass' response was "ARE YOU SERIOUS?" I couldn't believe what I heard. Wait.. it gets better. I then explain that I preferred a full refund for the meals, her response was (wait for it..) ARE YOU SERIOUS?! Hilarious and so disappointing. This young generation never ceases to amaze me. One word, CLUELESS!!! read more

This pretty cafe located on the first floor of Perris station apartments is definitely a hidden gem. Parking was a bit tough to find on a Saturday morning. The neighborhood can be a bit sketchy. The train station theme is on point however. There's plenty of seating. They were busy so drinks were coming out slowly. There's one person who is making the drinks. I only came for drinks and didn't realize that to the left was a place where drinks were placed. I finally figured it out. Anyway, the didn't have my pour over coffee shop he let me choose any drink of my choice which then I chose the Matcha latte with oat milk. The end result was pretty. He made me a heart coffee art. It tasted really good too! Their food menu looks good. I will be back. read more

Visited for the first time and had a mixed experience. We ordered two lattes, a Danish, and a tuna melt, total was about $36.. The food was ok, but my drink was disappointing. I asked for half sweetener, but it came out overly sweet. After just tasting it, I asked if I could switch to a regular vanilla iced latte like my sister's. The staff checked, but I was told I'd have to get back in line and pay for a new drink. I understand policies, but since the drink was barely touched and didn't match what I asked for, a little flexibility would've made a big difference. Overall, decent food but the service left me unsure about returning. read more

Came here today for a nice breakfast treat. Still waiting for my coffee ( it's been an hour). Cashier mixed up our order and refused to amend/take responsibility. This place looked like it would be a cool vibe but I am beyond disappointed. Will not be coming back here and unless you have all day then you shouldn't either. Update: got the coffee and there is whole milk in it when I asked for oat because of my lactose allergy. Again. Do. Not. Come. Here. read more

We decided to stop here for lunch. The restaurant was spacious inside and nice. Definitely a mom and pop own restaurant and the environment was nice. We got the mocha coco ice coffee was good if you like that stronger taste of mocha. The tuna melt was delicious with Tapatio. The pesto chicken panini was nicely toasted and was very savory. I decided to get the chicken buffalo fries with the ranch and buffalo sauce on the side. The chicken was nicely cooked and was soft. The ranch and buffalo sauce mixed really well with the fries and chicken. Only reason why I didn't give the 5 stars was because they forgot my order and I had to wait 30 mins extra to finally get my food. read more

They refused to remake my two iced chia after paying for the extra cost of oatmilk. The only solution they gave was to pay for another two making it total of four iced chias when reviving only two. Unfortunately it was not worth my time coming from far, never again. read more

I used to love coming to this café, which is why it's disappointing to say that things have really gone downhill lately. The food used to be fresh and flavorful, but on my last visit it tasted rushed and not nearly as good as it once was. The service also wasn't what it used to be staff seemed distracted and not very welcoming. It's sad because this used to be one of my favorite spots. Will never come back read more

I had a really upsetting experience here and feel the need to share it. While I was at the cafe, the owner went outside and called the police on an elderly man who wasn't even in front of the cafe. The man was in a wheelchair, appeared to be homeless, and was doing absolutely nothing harmful, he wasn't asking for money or bothering anyone. When the police arrived, the officer spoke with the owner (who was wearing a brown shirt, as shown in the picture), and then pulled out what looked like a taser. The elderly man even tried to speak, and the officer pointed the taser at him and proceeded to search him, while the owner stayed outside watching and waiting. I found this extremely unprofessional and honestly disturbing. It made me feel very uncomfortable witnessing how someone so vulnerable was treated despite not causing any issue. Especially considering this cafe is near an elderly home, the lack of empathy is shocking. This was a place I would have recommended to others, but after this experience, they've completely lost me as a customer. We're all human and deserve basic decency. I will not be coming back. Boycott this place. read more

Great service and the wraps are fresh and delicious, however I was a bit disappointed that DECAF coffee cost an additional 50 cents. I have never seen that kind of surcharge before! Also the menu is now abbreviated and not as extensive as the older posts show. read more

Quickly they do serve hot and cold meals. Offe several milk alternatives Been there a couple times and everything I've gotten is quite nice. Just today while waiting for the train I got their normal latte without any syrup and oatmilk and it tastes quite nice! It seems like actual espresso shot that goes in there is pretty good. It also came with nice latte art heart I wish I snapped a pic of. I only wish they opened a little earlier so I could have eaten breakfast before the train. read more

We arrived to not much of a line, there were three separate orders within our group of people, we ordered in the middle of our group. The woman who took our order was nice, she let us know they were out of bacon which was not an issue. After we all placed our order we went and sat down, she did not let our group know that some drinks could be picked up at the counter so drinks were sitting for a little bit. After a little while she came over to the table and let me know that they were also out of tuna (I had ordered the tuna melt) so I had to quickly decide on something else. About 25 minutes after we ordered we finally got our food. The last party in our group never got their food! When they asked about it (almost 40 minutes after they ordered). They noticed that the cook was in the back eating a sandwich. So they just asked for a refund. The woman taking orders was also the only person wiping down tables, taking out trash, and delivering food to tables, on a Saturday afternoon at lunch time. The food was bland, I ended up getting a turkey wrap, it had mostly lettuce and 1-2 slices of sandwich meat turkey, some avocado, and ranch on the side, it did not have any sauces on it. The menu it appears has been significantly scaled back from older menus. We do not live in this area but will not be back and would not suggest it to others. read more

If your looking for amazing coffee, good quality coffee this is the place!!! Their coffee is amazing. 5 star on coffee. Now food, food is good. I used to come here all the time before work and grab their breakfast sandwiches. Prices have gone up and it's just something I can't afford at the moment. If you order food expect a wait time. They can take a while. Overall give this place a try. It is a Perris Gem for sure. read more

The only reason I'm giving this place 2 stars is the food. Cesar Salad was massive and delicious. Chicken chipotle melt, Cesar wrap and chicken pesto panini were also delicious. The fries are bomb too. So that's something positive to add. I first started coming to this place a few years ago. Before I would give this place 5 Stars. I'm sad to say after today's visit I'm really disappointed. The drinks here just taste subpar and poorly crafted. My usual Red Berry Kiss drink was super sweet, tasted artificial and medicinal. My family members matcha tasted horrible and cheap. My dads latte had dead shots that tasted burnt and was mostly foam. The employees just look overworked and over it. This place has lost its life for sure and it's even shown in the workers faces. The bathroom situation is a little odd too, I myself and other customers were all confused by the bathroom situation. Having one key makes sense I guess. I think this place can definitely improve on its drink quality and customer service. I'm hoping next time I stop in it will be a better experience. read more

The food is absolutely amazing and tastes so good! The service is wonderful! They have wonderful music, and the environment is very upbeat! My favorite small business! read more

Buffalo Chicken Wrap is my favorite item here! I love this wrap!!! This is a great place to chill and sip on some coffee while enjoying tasty food. Service was a little slow today, but the workers here were friendly and were working hard to push plates out. I'll definitely come back, but at a different time when it's not too busy! Oh and the Banana Nutella crepe hit the spot I love the Lavender Mocha! I didn't get to take a picture of it , but I did get a shot of my Turmeric Lemonade that I ordered for the road, so refreshing!! read more

I got a bunch of takeout paninis and one order of crêpes. The Panini came with fries or chips. The French fries were really good. Thick cut with the skin still on. The bread on the Panini's is crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. It complements the sandwich and is not overwhelming. The sandwiches have a nice amount of fillings. We got the turkey breast panini, ham and cheese panini and the portobello cheese panini. All are delicious. The crepes are banana and Nutella. The crêpes are tender and flavorful with fresh bananas. The Gorgonzola Pecan salad is well constructed and there's enough to share. It has fresh strawberries, dried cranberries, chicken, and Gorgonzola. The vinaigrette was tasty. It makes a healthy addition to the sandwiches/paninis. The service was very efficient and friendly. Shout out to Ariana. The place is very large with lots of comfortable seating. Cutely decorated. This is a very cool place for lunch or breakfast if you're in the area. read more

The ambience and decor is beautiful. The food is pretty good. I've ordered their latte and teas . They've both been very pleasing to the palate. It's a cozy place to relax and enjoy conversation with the girls . It's has this cool vintage vibe , kind takes you back in time. Cool feels! Recommend to try. read more

So first time here and I ordered two drinks. This place is super clean. I will be coming back to work from here during the week. I have high hopes for this spot. The food selection looks good and I'll try that next time. Here is what I ordered Affogato- $4.00 very good. I'm not sure where the ice cream comes from but they only have vanilla. 3.5/5 stars Iced Sunrise with tea and orange juice. The tea is red and I'm assuming it's raspberry. It's delicious and looks really cool since the tea floats in top of the orange juice - $16oz 4.75 and 24oz is $5.75- 4/5 stars I will be back soon read more

Nice coffee and food place in the Perris historic district! The portions were great and the chilaquiles specifically were a highlight. We got a hazelnut latte which was pretty good as well. The service did take awhile for a Saturday breakfast. They were busy and informed us it would take around 30 minutes which it did, but worth the wait! read more

Decided to have breakfast here, so ordered the veggie omelette and a dirty chai latte. The omelette was okay, I wish the veggies were chopped instead of in strips. The dirty chai wasn't good. Very bitter tasting. When I asked if I could get a different drink, the barista seemed offended and they refused. read more

I ordered the red chilaquiles expecting them to be good along with the molletes. Unfortunately they were both disappointing. I ordered them to go and when I opened the salsa I was a thrown off by the pink color. I decided to give it a shot and poured it on top. They were not good in my opinion, the salsa was bland and had more of a tomato flavor than a red salsa flavor. I ended up throwing the entire plate away. As for the molletes, they also lacked flavor. The bread didn't taste fresh. Overall disappointed on both entrees especially given the price I think $16/ each. The only reason why I'm giving it 2 starts is because I did get an oat milk latte and that was really good. I've been here before and have had their crepes and sandwiches and they were decent which is why I think I was even more disappointed in my orders today. read more

Good ambiance. Decent food. Fast service. Came in on a Thursday, late afternoon and it wasn't too busy. Plenty of space to sit and hang out.

First time trying this place with my family and we were very pleased with the food and coffee that we ordered. We got a stack of pancakes, a Chipotle Chicken sandwich with fries, a hot flavored latte, and a cold flavored latte. The staff was very friendly and the dining area has a very mellow feel to it. We will definitely be returning here soon. read more

Never do reviews but honestly the service and food here suck! The caesar salad wrap is so dry. Can tell the chicken is old. I wanted to like this place so bad, but unfortunately I just could not. Would recommend spending your time elsewhere. read more

This is a wonderful cafe/restaurant in the oddest of locations. You wouldn't expect to see a place like this in the middle of downtown Perris, CA. The coffee is great; the food is delicious. The atmosphere is relaxing. I would just suggest that they do a better job of making the fries a little crispier and not so soggy. But other than that, the place is great. read more

Great service. Great ambiance. I was able to buy breakfast before boarding my Saturday 8:14 am train to Los Angeles from Perris. This is a inviting space in Downtown Perris for your community events.

A friend who loves this place took me here for lunch. It's pretty big space, very clean. We both got lavender lattes. I got the chicken churri sandwich and my friend got the poblano burger, which is her fave. The latte was sooo good. Bold lavender flavor it was creamy and refreshing. It's probably the second best lavender latte I've ever had. I can't wait to bring my husband to try it. My friends burger looked delicious. You know it's good when you need 100 napkins to eat it! The chicken sandwich was very good. I thought the chimichurri would be more traditional but it's mayo based which makes it a little more muted but it serves the chicken well. read more
