I want to update my review, because now that this place has been here long enough, there is more information that needs to be shared. They NEVER follow their operation hours. While their coffee is decent and environment is nice, I have shown up SEVERAL times to this place and found it closed at the most random times. For instance, they can be open from 9AM-5PM, and I'll come at 10 or 11, and they're flat out closed. If this was just a one time or two time type of thing, it would be reasonable and understandable. But I have come probably on at least 5 different occasions, in which this was the case. They have no business serving the public if they can't keep the public's trust on their most basic promise: hours of operation. read more

Came in today at 5:45pm, we had been in the area and noticed this coffee spot! We are always looking for new places to have coffee. Anyway we did see that they were closing soon, we mainly just wanted to see what the menu looked like and come back another day. As soon as we walked in a little girl playing said, we're closing soon! Ok no problem! I'm assuming this was the owners daughter. So we're looking at the at the Menu, checking out the baked goods and no one approaches us, welcome us, asks if we need help or are we ordering anything. Not a welcoming vibe even if they are closing soon. So we left! Not sure we'd come back. NEVER let a customer leave without talking to them. You could have said anything to make us feel welcomed. Like I said earlier, we just wanted to see what they were all about! I see that their Yelp reviews are so-so.....I hope they improve!!!!! read more

My daughter and I saw this coffee shop while we were out in upland wanted to go in and try it looked charming, unfortunately we went in and the gentleman working behind the counter completely ignored us. He was making a coffee I assume and he was the only person behind the counter. There was a family sitting down with there drinks and a gentleman waiting for his order We waited looked around and were deciding on what to get we were in there a good 7 min and nothing no hello no I'll be right with you NOTHING it was like we were not in there so we both decided to leave. Such a bummed looked like a cute coffee shop but customer service was lacking big time I completely understand there was only one person working but when we came in, he could've said hello I'll be right with you. Could've acknowledged us while we were standing there could've said. Would you like to look at a menu? we were just completely ignored. It was very uncomfortable , I would not be back and I would not recommend this place to anybody that I know read more

Such a bummer... Came by before Noon and the place was locked up and closed. The online hours state they are open until 6pm. Did see the owner get food delivered and lock back up so I know being closed wasn't an oversight. Hope you guys decide to be more consist with your hours, you are losing potential customers. read more

Little Badger Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Upland, California

I had an iced white chocolate latte and it was delicious! We were attended right away. Seems like the perfect spot to hang out with friends, they have tons of board games, but it's also chill if you need to get work done. Support small businesses! Service was great! read more

Came for the first time.. ordered a matcha tea and it was very bland. When I ordered, the front counter didn't provide any recommendations even when I let her know this was my first visit. The drink cost $7.50 which I didn't even enjoy nor finished drinking. It was basically the matcha and water nothing special. Then, I was meeting a coworker for coffee, after 20 mins the front cashier said she has to go to her other job since she just got called to come in sooner. She asked everyone to leave so she can close early. Ugh?!!! I doubt I'll ever go back. read more

This is exactly what I look for in a business. I walked in today about 4pm needing a little pick me up. I was greeted by I think the owner. I ordered a pour over coffee and he made it a personal experience. As I noticed things around the shop he would answer my questions and made it feel like home. My daughter even left saying, wow that place was so homey. Im sad I havent come before. I want to come here more often now that I know it exists and I think you should too. Great coffee and even better service. Plus they have tons of board games to play while you enjoy your coffee. 10/10. Thank you for the amazing experience ! read more

A little coffee menu that packs a nice bite! They have your basic flavors plus a couple of specialties that I'm familiar with. Since I was new to the spot the barista recommended getting their latte that's made with housemade white chocolate syrup. So I went with that plus a flat white for the road. Before I continue I must tell you that they have mug service and that there deserves a WooP! WooP! So my latte was well balanced to my liking but my flat white was a little flat but it's cool cause the barista was fairly new and I get it. Plus he offered to make it again so that was cool of him. The shop is really quaint and they have those old Sinatra vibes flowing on which I didn't mind. So the drinks were pretty good and the service was great and the shop itself feels comfy so that's that. And that's my take on this shop, Peace... read more

Disappointing. Service was good and atmosphere is comforting. Everything was promising on arrival. The drinks themselves are where the problems arrive. First the iced vanilla bean latte. The consistency of the oat-milk was funky, but not enough to make it un-drinkable. It was just a little off. Not enough coffee flavor for my liking. As for the hot cinnamon honey latte, talk about Cinnamon City!! First sip was grainy with all the cinnamon. And not a drop of honey is to be tasted. read more

Terrible . Walked in looks like a cute coffee shop excited , menu looked a bit empty so took a seat to decide what was appetizing, first timer here . Not even 2 minutes there a Man working there said , u have to order something or you gotta leave . Immediately stood up and took my business elsewhere . no thank you read more

This little coffee shop is adorable! The ambience is great and so is the coffee! Will definitely come back

THIS PLACE IS NEVER OPEN...despite the OPEN sign in the window and Yelp indicating 'open'. Wtf...don't know if I should be frustrated with Yelp or this closed coffee joint. I've tried 3x. I'm out !! read more

Just drove by on a Wednesday at 11:50am and they are closed, as opposed to their hours listed on Yelp. Sad, as I was excited to try and support the new local coffee shop. Looking at other reviews, it seems this is the norm. read more

was recommended this place by a friend, so decided to try it out! inside was cozy and cute but the menu was a little off. I ordered an ice chai latte....they were out of almond milk which was fine because they had 2% at least. staff was ok. chai latte tasted like I was drinking regular milk and no taste of the chai which was disappointing. they were out of stock of lids so I had to chug it down so it doesn't spill in my car. I won't be returning at all. read more

I ordered a hot Latte, and it was impressive. It has just the right balance of rich espresso and creamy milk. I will definitely come back often. read more

Little Badger Coffee - Creamy rich hot Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Upland, California

Place is closed, drove from afar to waste my gas and time they could have at least updated on their IG

Bad experience I walked in for like less than 4 minutes and my friend and I sat down to decide what to get and he said if we don't decide we have to go... idk about anyone else but I like to look at the menu before I go try something new. Older white man with a beard do better and don't rush potential costumers read more

Trendy coffee shop nestled a plaza in Upland. Walked in and the temperature was very chill which was absolutely refreshing during the summer heat. I love coffee and this spot served me a delicious hot latte. I was very impressed. I wish I would've gotten the owners name before I left, seemed like a wholesome guy with a great attitude. I wish this coffee shop much success and I will definitely make stop in again. read more

A lovely place to sit for a coffee. It goes back to a time where you could order a coffee and relax a little while completing some task. Modern coffee bars have become fast food restaurants and drive throughs and have forgotten their purpose and origin. Hopefully coffee houses are making a comeback. read more

No stars. Went today and wasn't even open. Been trying to check this place out but obviously by the multiple reviews this place has issues with timeliness, accurate hours and just even being open on a regular basis. Sorry won't be back. If you need a reliable hard working employee, message me my grandson is looking for his first job out of high school. He currently volunteers at the local cat & comics rescue. read more

The coffee at Little Badgers is I tried the pumpkin latte, delicious. Love the decor.

It really disappoints me to leave this review, as I love supporting small business. In fact, I've had a great experience the few times they were open. On three separate occasions I've gone out of my way to drive to Little Badger, and they were locked up and closed during their posted open hours. I've given up trying to support this shop with my time and money, I don't recommend going out of your way to get coffee here unless you're already shopping at Goodwill. The business concept is cute but unfortunately it doesn't excuse terrible business management. read more

Unfortunately, the place just isn't there for me. You go inside and it's cute. The menu is pretty disorganized and there's less drinks suggestions and more just ingredients thrown on a board. The staff was super nice, but the girl taking the order kind of seemed like she knew what she was doing. And I was hoping at least the drink would make up for it. Just gotta simple latte since it was my first time here. Tasted less like a latte and more like Nesquick powdered chocolate milk. Kind of grainy almost no taste of coffee. I mean, maybe it was an off day, definitely potential there, but just probably never return. read more

My first time here and it's so cute. It has books you can read from and games to play. The drink was really good and the cashier was very friendly. I definitely would like to come back here , such a cute unique find . read more

I have a wonderful time discussing the nuances of coffee, learned a bit more about the different roasts, and received a highly drinkable coffee. If you've got a sense of humor and are adventurous, don't skip the quarter machine next to the register. read more

Little Badger Coffee - A bit of fun to top off the coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Upland, California

Understaffed? I'm always looking for new coffee places to try so I'm a bit disappointed. I came in about 20 minutes before closing and the gentleman shared that last call is 30 minutes before closing because it takes him an hour to close when he is by himself. I would suggest adjusting hours to truly reflect actual closing time, hire more people, or at least lock the front door. read more

Stopped by here before going into work for a little breakfast and coffee. I had originally wanted a white chocolate latte but saw they were out, so I ordered a hot vanilla latte with oatmilk instead, steamed to perfection! The barista was very friendly and warm. They had wifi and it's very peaceful to work there. I will definitely be back for the white chololate mocha read more

I've been wanting to check this place out for a while now, and we finally got there today. It did not disappoint. Cute interior, good music, coffee menu has everything one could want. The owner is super cool and it's clear he's really passionate about coffee, which is always welcome, especially for my coffee-enthusiastic husband. We will be back for sure! read more

I had no idea this place was here until I happened to see it on yelp! It's just up the street from my house so it was a nice walk on a beautiful day. It's tucked into the corner and is very cozy and clean inside. I had the iced dirty chai, it was pretty good. I'll definitely be coming back to try more! Service was super friendly and overall it's a cute little place, can't wait to come back read more

Little Badger Coffee - Dirty chai - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Upland, California

Their hours say they're open 6am-6pm Monday thru Friday. When my wife and I arrived at 9:25am this guy was bringing in a sign and I asked him if they were closed, he paused, looked at me and then said "you know what yeah, yeah we're closed". Idk wtf that was about but will definitely never recommend this place. read more

I was so overjoyed when I entered this coffee shop. It's tucked in the corner to the right of the Goodwill, and upon entering the place is cleanly decorated sporting wooden tables the owner made himself. He is so kind and hospitable, and made us some great coffee. I ordered a single origin espresso--an Ethiopian Wush Wush with notes of dried rose, plum, and cherry cola. The owner made extra sure the shot was dialed in correctly, and was kind enough to perfect a second one after serving one that wasn't to his standard, which I thought was special. My girlfriend ordered a standard latte which was surprisingly sweet and balanced on its own, and really well done. For my coffee nerds, this place walks a perfect line between third wave and being I.E. marketable with it's delicious craft latte selection, which had other customers swooning. I will for sure be making this spot a regular. Please, buy local and support wonderful and humble businesses like these instead of the Dutch Bros opening down the street. The IE does not need more fast food. read more

My daughter and I went shopping at goodwill and noticed this new coffee place we hadn't seen. Glad we gave it a try on the way out goodwill. What a pleasant surprise! Ordered a dirty chai and my daughter got a lavender macha. Both were really good! Max the manager was a pleasure to meet and talk too. Cozy seating and the place has a homey feel to it. We will definitely be back! read more

I love coffee so much and im always trying to try new places. Was disappointed, coffee tastes burnt and the burrito was half warm half cold. Cute place tho read more

We noticed this coffee shop while at the Goodwill next door. I was super excited to when I saw they served tonic espresso because it's hard to find, we entered and the place was very cute and cozy, I liked the aesthetic! But our excitement diminished as the time went by and no one had come out to great us or take our order, there was no one in sight but I heard voices in the back and we tried to call out a hello and received no response. As the length of the wait became awkward and too lengthy (5-10min) we decided to just leave. As we exited we tried to make ourselves known in a final attempt in hopes that we were just not noticed. But atlas we left sadly. read more

My husband and I made an attempt to go here twice. Sadly we will never go back. Our first attempt said open online and we showed up and it was closed. Our second attempt the door was open and when we approached the owner was outside on the phone unfortunately he stayed on the phone the entire time so it was a bit unprofessional. Additionally he told us about all the special and delicious options they had to offer and then told us he didn't have the ingredients to make any of it. The ambiance was mid. The drinks were mid. Not a place to get good coffee. read more

Not sure how long this place has been opened, seems pretty new. They have some board games, that was pretty cool. Walked in and right away, service was not great. There was no greeting from the person on bar. The person on bar looked flustered, with two drink orders in front of us. Running up and down, looking for things. When it was our turn to order, there was an awkward silence. The person on bar was just staring at us and didn't say a word to us. I awkwardly ordered the drinks and paid. We tried to make small talk, but they weren't having it. This place has a lot of potential. Looks like they just need to polish up on something's and it will be a great coffee shop.

Cold brew and grilled cheese were okay. I came with my laptop to do some work, but their WiFi was out, and the music was a little too loud. May come back to suss out "my thing that I always get here", bc it's so close to my house. read more
