Molinosss, there's something about this place; its just... where memories are made? Staff's always super helpful & friendly, their lattes are delicious, there's some outlets you could use to study at & a tandem antique shop to explore ?! Plus, there's a huge window with a view of the Mission Inn (sunlight points) & a cozy vibe that everyone loves. If you haven't been here you're honestly either lying or ? read more

5 stars for Jioceline (and honestly every barista who has ever served us here). The staff is consistently kind, patient, and clearly working incredibly hard. Today on a busy Friday afternoon, Jioceline was running the entire shop alone and handled it with grace and professionalism. The 24-minute wait for two iced drinks and one hot drink was absolutely not her fault. That said, I do have to give 3 stars overall because the scheduling has become concerning. For the past several months, it's been rare to see more than one barista working at a time, even during peak hours in downtown Riverside. It's tough for customers, but more importantly, it feels unfair to the employee carrying that load solo. The team here deserves better support. read more

Do yourself a favor and stop by for the horchata latte! It is one of the best coffees I've had. It's sweet but not too sweet and the coffee undertone is just right. The service is great and the barista was so kind. This is located right across from Mission Inn so there is a fabulous view of the busy street outside. Great atmosphere and better coffee! read more

I stopped by Molinos because i went to the antique store attached to it. I never knew that's where molinos was located but since i was there i decided to stop by. It was much bigger than i expected , lots of spacious seating, open windows allowing lots of light in, overall a really nice place. The staff was super friendly and helpful which i appreciated. I ordered the horchata latte and it was pretty good. I will say it reminded me more of Cinnamon Toast Crunch in a good way. It was pretty sweet though. Overall i was pleasantly surprised and will be back. read more

Açaí bowl tastes premade which is fine bc they're a coffee shop lol still good and decently priced if you have a sweet tooth (on top of the coffee). My friend made me sporadically crave the horchata latte. I'm not a coffee drinker so this can last me 2 days and I just like to sip on it. Only coffee shop I continue to come back to. read more

Molinos Coffee - cheers - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Riverside, California

This was probably one of the worst coffee shops I've been to tbh. First off I ordered a Lavender lemonade expecting a somewhat purplish drink. I was horribly wrong, it looked and tasted EXACTLY THE SAME AS A REGULAR LEMONADE. Second item I ordered was a Nutella Sandwich which wasn't the worst but the it DEFINITELY would've been better if the croissant was at least warmed up/ toasted. Lastly I ordered an apple cider and THAT had to be the worst drink I've ever had, so much so it actually made me mad how it tasted. It literally looked and tasted like a soggy apple pie. read more

Ordered an açaí bowl here around 10am on a Sunday morning it's delicious just like the one at the Redlands location. Their açaí is underrated. The consistency is like ice cream and with a scoop of peanut butter it's under $8 at a decent portion as well. Some seats are available but it can get packed quick. The ambiance is a minimal and I want to give it the word "rustic." Don't know how their coffee is, but the açaí is worth it here. Açaí bowl: 4.5/5 read more

Was in the area and needed a pick me up Found this little spot in downtown Staff were great ! Very clean. Quite as well . Great place for studying and maybe a little coffee date. So many options to choose from. I asked the baristas what was her fave drink. She told me it's the lavender with honey. Y'all it did not disappoint!! My brother got the Havana it was a bit sweet for his liking but I liked it. Also order just a regular coffee. They do have baked goods and little knickknacks to buy from. Definitely coming back. read more

Gorgeous cafe with some delicious coffee! I got an horchata latte with cherry cold foam which was absolutely amazing. My bestie got an apple cider with cherry cold foam and syrup!! Drinks took about 10 minutes to come out to us which didn't bother either of us as we like knowing some thought is being put into them, and we also were kind of just meandering around Riverside for the day so there was no rush for us. Server was incredibly kind and explained the promos and specials they had for the fall season.10/10!!! read more

Cool little coffee spot right across the street from the Mission Inn. Swung by on a busy Saturday morning, but still got our food and drinks very quickly and was kindly walked through their different coffee options and specials by the staff. Their blueberry muffin was amazing! Great flavor, freshness, and texture. Their coffee was simple but pretty good. Overall had a great time here and their service in particular was a highlight. You also can't beat the views of the mission inn from here! read more

Molinos Coffee - smores latte & dulce de leche latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Riverside, California

Cute little coffee place that should stick just to coffees and açaí bowls. We had a couple of excellent lattes but the breakfast options are laughably bad. Breakfast/egg sandwich seems like it was popped out of a Sam's or Costco bag and microwaved. Bagels seem to be from a prepackaged bag at the grocery store. Ideally they would buy from a local bakery, but at a minimum they could at least buy the Costco bagels or fresh grocery store bagels. read more

A nice, quick, and cute coffee shop located in the heart of Riverside. Molino's is nestled inside of a huge antique shop, so you can grab your coffee and then instantly walk through to old antiques in a 3-story shop. There's no parking for the cafe itself so you'll have to find some street or metered parking first. read more

7:00 am and I'm the first customer to arrive on a fall Monday morning. Love trying out new coffee shops. And what a great vibe this little cafe has. Perfectly located across the street from the Mission Inn, it has lots of character and interesting details to peruse, inside and out. That chandelier! Very friendly and attentive staff member. It's good that there are genuine "morning people" in this world. I'm a decaf mocha connoisseur and Molinos' did not disappoint. Steamy, creamy and smooth. Perfectly chocolaty without being too sweet. The small selection of morning East looked tempting, but will await my next visit. So delighted to see the festive lights on the Mission Inn begin to sparkle around 7:30! All the feels of the season to come. read more

Coffee was just ok , bagel was dry and old. This place is in dire need of deep cleaning and table replacement. The ceiling fans and light fixtures are filthy. The entire place needs TCL Would not recommend this place read more

My colleagues suggested this spot, and after visiting, I can see why. The atmosphere is fantastic, and it's conveniently located next to an antique shop. They offer a diverse menu of food and drinks that are quite refreshing. I will certainly return and recommend it to anyone looking for a great experience. read more

First time here . Read yelp reviews and wanted to try the popular iced vanilla chai latte. It was way too sweet! taste more like a dessert than a chai. Not a great first experience. I would like to go back and request a drink 'less sweet'. it would be nice if they wouldn't automatically add so much sweetener to their drinks. It's easier to just add another pump of sweetness, if requested rather than have to remake a whole drink. I didn't request for them to remake it because I left before I even tried it :/ Service was ok.. not too busy. The coffee shop is nice and cozy read more

Molinos Coffee - Iced vanilla chai latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Riverside, California

I was in Riverside to meet up with a friend and stopped here for a late morning coffee. It's located right across the street from the Mission Inn and there is paid street parking. Inside, I like the brick walls of this old building from the previous century and the retro light fixtures, . There was a line of about 4 people when I arrrived. The manager was wiping down tables and tidying up the place. My turn came and I ordered a hot horchata latte and chose a blueberry muffin from the minimal choices in their pastry case. I sat at one of the indoor tables (they also have a small streetside patio) and ate the muffin. It was moist, fresh, and incredibly delicious. Many reviewers mention this place is slow - my latte took about ten minutes but it was worth the wait. It was very hot so I took the lid off the to-go cup and let it cool for a few minutes so I could actually sip it. The smell of cinnamon filled the air around me. It was a sweet drink with a bold cinnamon flavor; maybe not a drink for a coffee purist but I loved it. 4.5 stars rounded up. read more

Coffee was great, service was good, staff was pleasant. There is not a lot of seating.

I ordered the largest matcha, several people after me got their order first, once I got my drink it was white(light brownish) tasted like spoiled sweet milk no matcha taste, so I asked for a refunded because I had to leave after waiting 20-25 mins and never received my refund after the lady said I was refunded I had to contact my bank. The lady that served me had long French nails gave attitude, I knew the second once I asked if my order was ready after taking 20 mins she was gonna do something petty read more

Molino's has some of my favorite matcha, in the sense that it always tastes milky and sweet. I feel like I haven't had any other matcha that tastes just like theirs. Staff is always really nice as well. It's also a good spot to study or just hangout. It's directly connected to the antique store as well which gives you something to do after grabbing your drink. :) read more

If you're looking to get nickel and dime'd for subpar food, make your way to Molino's! Their sandwiches are zapped in the microwave... and they give you a small cream cheese packet for your bagel, which is barely enough to get a thin smear... if you want more, they will charge you for it. "Sorry, that's our policy." Avocado toast was decent... Nutella croissant was fine (even they couldn't get Nutellas wrong) If every other place in the area is closed, I would recommend walking or driving further. read more

Very good service even though it was packed like crazy. The team kept it going good job

The worst service ever... $6.51 for a bagel with cheese and jalepeno I asked for bacon with my bagel and they gave me a plain bagel. Then the person came back back to me and said they didn't charge for the bacon which it clearly says on their menu that the bagels are 3.99. So then I just tell him give me my bagel back, and I wait another 10 mins so she can finish another order and she give me back my cold bagel.. horrible service. They need to change their menu to the actual prices. Will never come back and highly don't recommend. You try to support small Latino businesses and this is what u get read more

Unfortunately the customer service isn't all too well. I waited in line with 2 people in front of me for almost 20 minutes until I received my acai bowl. The service just was not all there ! The drinks and acai bowl was very good. I set a high standard for customer service. read more

Stopped in on a winter night, got an affogato. This place is right across from the Mission Inn and the windows and patio seats are a nice spot to have a short date while enjoying the Christmas lights. The ordering process is smooth, they have a few treats if you need something to accompany your drink. My drink was excellent, will have to try this place again in the future. The interior connects to a little shopping area and I think it's cool. It has a new school feel in an old school setting and there is something about that nobody can deny. read more

Ambience is very cozy! I tried their Nutcracker Latte w/ Almond Milk. It was delicious but $7.15 is a bit too pricey. Service was very nice!

Great little spot, staff was friendly and quick for everything being made on the spot. The tables were a little crummy from other patrons using the tables and leaving a mess. The staff wasn't enough to go through after each person and clean up. Great location and hours. The breakfast sandwich was simple and delicious. Chocolate muffin was good but very rich took us all day to finish it. Affogato was very good, so was the Carmel macchiato. I would definitely come back here if we were in the area again. read more
