Amazing coffee, the flavors switch out every month and the syrups are handmade so so unique compared to most spots. The staff is kind and there is plenty of seating! Make sure to snag a canned cold brew or flavored concentrates in the fridge by where you pick up drinks Ontop of the drinks, workers are paid a livable wage so tips are not required. Every weekend they make special slushees where 100% of the proceeds go to mutual aid. Local artists are supports with their work on display and also by the array of Lucid merch you can purchase. My perfect weekend recommendation is snagging a drink at Lucid and making your way over the Happy Mediums read more

Long overdue review...but Lucid has become my absolute favorite coffee shop over the last year and a half. I love supporting local and how supportive they are of every single human ever! My absolute favorite is a classic dirty chai with any of their housemade cold foams, however I have tried countless of their monthly menu changes including: hojicha cf maple donuts latte pineapple upside down cake ube cf banoffee cf (pls bring this back ) Everything on their menu is absolutely to die for, including their new half gallons of cold brews. Please continue to support and celebrate the community, I will continue to keep supporting Lucid in every way possible! read more

I stumbled into this location by pure coincidence ... Or was it the coffee gods who love me so much and wanted me to try this delicious coffee that just dancing on my tongue.. all house syrups are house made and they're delish !!

I don't under what it is about Calimesa, but they have the best food places out this way and here is another one! Now we only came for the coffee but saw they were also a bakery with LOTS of delicious looking items. For now, I can only speak to the coffee....again for now. I got their brownie batter mocha and I could not have been more amazed on the rich, creamy and bitter less flavor it had. Come to find out they make their out syrups for their coffee drinks. Wifie got the vanilla latte. That one was not overpowering and smooth. The service was pleasant and attentive. The coffee is a bit pricey, but the quality is worth splurging every once in a while. This is, by far, the best coffee out this way without a doubt!!!! read more

If you drop by Village Bread, please pay Lucid Coffee a visit as well! The customer service is great and the coffee is really really good! I tried a cortado and it was perfect! I don't remember what kind of coffee bean was used, but it was so smooth and had a nice flavor. I'll definitely be back! read more

Lucid Coffee - The strawberry jam matcha latte which is SO GOOD!!! - Coffee Roasteries Near Me - Calimesa, California

Located inside Village Bread, this coffee shop is placed beautifully next to delicious pastries. Staff did all have masks on so I found that odd. Their menu has a lot to choose from and very unique flavors. I ordered the pistachio matcha and it barely tasted like matcha or pistachio. I will go again and try their coffee in hopes that'll redeem them. But overall I want to really like it so hoping I can update my review! read more

Amazing coffee!! Lucid is my go to spot when in the area since it is amazing. I usually opt for the cold brew base but you can't go wrong with any drink here. I've had the blueberry latte, a sage latte, and some other stuff and everything is 10/10. The customer service is always great, I tend to always ask a lot of questions since the menu is huge and changes often but everyone is welcoming to those questions. Some seating available indoors, located inside a shopping center that also includes happy mediums (a must try!) read more

Whenever we are in Calimesa we try to stop by Lucid (and village bread) to get some coffee because we love it. I love how they have seasonal drinks and they are always a hit. Since it's October we tried their seasonal flavors and got the apple cider donut which was okay, we've had better. I got the pumpkin spice cold foam and loved it! So flavorful and perfect for the season! I went back the next day for the banana pudding cold foam and loved it- probably my favorite!!! If you're ever in the area, this is a must coffee shop! read more

Update they are never open whenever I try to go their hours are inaccurate and it's annoying read more

The coffee is pretty ok, they have unique flavors but their matcha was incredibly watery! I was a little disappointed to only taste milk and cold foam in my matcha and have it come out a super light color. read more

Absolutely loved the kind service, the cute indoor seating, and the delicious lattes! We got the brownie batter and the banana foster. So sweet and delicious. If you don't like super sweet drinks, I recommend asking for half sweet! read more

You can never go wrong with the matcha. This last time I got the berry matcha and it was delicious. This place is nice with great customer service. It's in the same location with village bread so the smell is incredible. I like that you're able to get your pastries in the same spot. read more

Arrived here at 11:45am on Mother's Day and it was not packed. I ordered the iced buko pandan latte w/ oat milk. I wish it was a little sweeter. Had a strong coffee taste to it. Ambiance is great as it is in the same space with Village Bakery. Clean and aesthetic. read more

Lucid is a GEM! I seriously can't say enough good things about this place. Lucid has quickly become my go to coffee spot not just for the amazing drinks, but for the whole vibe. Their monthly specials are always so creative and delicious (the tiramisu cold foam has been my latest obsession), and my all time favorite is the brownie batter mocha it's not overly rich, perfectly chocolatey, and seriously addictive in the best way. (Thank you for making it a permanent menu drink!) The decor is fun and unique, the space has such a chill, welcoming atmosphere, and every time I walk in, I'm greeted by the friendliest, sweetest team. You can tell the employees care about the quality, the cleanliness, and the customer experience. Big shoutout to all the amazing staff and the owner, you've created something really special here. I used to live in Oceanside, where coffee shops were everywhere, and I honestly wasn't sure I'd find a place I loved just as much after moving. But then I found Lucid, and now I'm spoiled all over again. If you're even thinking about stopping in just do it!! (p.s. they're located inside a bakery who has great bread and yummy pastries.) 10/10 all around! read more

Lucid Coffee - Vanilla latte - Coffee Roasteries Near Me - Calimesa, California

There is an art to coffee a delicate balance of precision, passion, and patience. Lucid Coffee, however, seems to have misplaced all three. The result is an establishment that promises sophistication but delivers only confusion in a cup. The coffee itself was serviceable, though hardly worth the high price. Its flavor was thin, its finish forgettable the sort of drink one consumes simply because one already paid for it. Service was another trial entirely, slow, disorganized, and empty of structure. Drinks were handed out in a chaotic ballet, with customers guessing which latte belonged to who since none were marked. The most curious discovery came after my visit. I had posted my original review fair, accurate, and mildly disappointed only to find it mysteriously removed. Apparently, management prefers to curate their reputation as carefully as they neglect their workflow. It seems that Lucid Coffee is not only slow with service, but swift with censorship. Shady business indeed, and an insult to honest feedback. As for Lucid Coffee, I am reminded of the words of the great Chef Gusteau, "Anyone can cook!" all though after this experience, I suspect he might have stated instead, "Anyone can report a review, but that doesn't make the coffee taste any better." I would include pictures of the coffee and receipt, however, those were promptly thrown away after leaving. And no, this review was not written by AI, please leave this review for others to see..... 1 star... read more

Great coffee that's tastes great. Staff great. Go get some ! Cute seating inside with nice paintings.

Stopped in on our way to Coachella, got the mint matcha, sooo good an refreshing! It was a perfect pick me up and a great new take on matcha. Mint tea & matcha are my two favorite things so it was a match made in heaven for me. My husband got the Thai tea, it was also really good. Don't expect a super sweet Thai tea, its good but not what you get most places on the sweetness this is more of a true black tea read more

Delicious pastries, authentic and flaky. We got a vanilla latte and pistachio cake latte, incredible. Very kind and welcoming staff. read more

Uhhhhh coffee was mid, nothing special won't go out of my way for it, it was good just not strong enough for me, the bread however I didn't try but looked amazing. read more

Good coffee. Their coffee is always fresh and they have original flavors they concoct themselves. The place is simple and clean and the service is always friendly. read more

Brownie batter was very good! Great way to get my chocolate fix in coffee form. I've also tried the banana foster which is great too! They do taste sweet so I had water between sips of the coffee. I like that they have straw options if you'd like use plastic or paper. The staff is lively and friendly. The space feels inviting read more

Lucid Coffee - Coffee Roasteries Near Me - Calimesa, California

Nice little place and I really wanna try the bakery. As for their coffee they have one size and they charge large prices. It really wasn't that great, and in fact both my wife and I drank about half of our coffees and tossed em in the trash. She was really disappointed as we lost our go to coffee place do to closure. Guess we will just have to go to Agape in Beaumont from now on. read more

This place is incredible. I live in the midst of coffee Mecca in Los Angeles and would say this coffee shop is hands down better than anything else (ie Alfreds, Starbucks, etc). The monthly rotational menu is genius! To do that as a solo entrepreneur is insanely hard. The drinks aren't too sweet and they taste exactly like what they are described as. I absolutely love the chocolate banana latte and everything else they have honestly is great. Service is awesome and they have a punch card which for sure keeps me coming back when I'm visiting the area. read more

MK was amazing! Very cute inside they have a bakery which all the stuff looked amazing! It was pretty busy inside which just shows how good the stuff is that they sell!! The matcha was good! They use a whisk and all so you know it's legit!! Thank you to MK for being so amazing! read more

Yummy coffee and friendly service. I recommend the banana pudding cold foam on top of whatever cold drink you get :)

I truly wanted to like this place, but sadly disappointed. They have an espresso machine to make lattes, however they only use it for HOT drinks. If you want a cold latte it has to be made with cold brew. I asked if it can be made with espresso shots and the response I got was, "it's not convenient for us". So you're a coffee shop and can only accommodate espresso drinks for those who want a hot latte?! BYE!!! I paid $9 for a drink that went straight to the trash. read more

Went over to visit because of a recommendation. Very busy but awesome coffee and pastries. Cool vibe

I was visiting from out of town when my cousin introduced me to this spot, and I'm so glad she did. The space has a few tables inside and some cute merch. The staff were friendly, attentive, and provided all-around excellent customer service, and the drinks were just as impressive. The matcha was so delicious, I had to stop by one more time before heading back to Texas. Highly recommend! read more

I got a vanilla latte which was very good, and I didn't have to wait too long. The line is not that bad and the staff are friendly. They share a building with the bread spot so it's very convenient to grab a coffee and a fresh pastry. Vibes are okay? You can tell they're trying but it's kinda all over the place and things on walls that they had in the storage room. Still, it's clean and coffee is solid. read more

Excellent and house made syrups are phenomenal! The bakery in the shared space also excellent!

Tried several drinks from here now, some of the best coffee around. Doesn't hurt that they're in the same location as a good bakery too.

Very cute place!!! With very friendly service and good coffee. Coffee is a tad sweet but very good. Also next to sourdough shop!!! read more

I wanted a cinnamon roll from next door and while they were getting it ready I grabbed a coffee from lucid and oh man, it was phenomenal. I ordered a banana fosters latte and it was creamy, sweet, and delicious but the sweet didn't over power the coffee which I love. I will be back for sure. The customer service was great and the staff were friendly. read more

One of the best lattes I've ever received. Friendly staff and a fair amount of seating available.
