    A nice place with a great staff. Happy and really seem to enjoy what they do. Beverages were tasty.

    The first few times I came here, the service and food were terrible and made me stop coming for a while. But recently came back in with my mom and there were definitely some improvements. An employee stopped mid task to help us out and he was extremely kind and helpful. I also really liked how our drinks and food came out at the same time. Shoutout to whoever was on aux because their music taste is impeccable! Overall, a really nice experience this time around. I hope that they can keep this up and not lose current and future customers.

    I think I walked into a coffee lover's heaven . This place has that fresh ground coffee smell but next level aroma . Stopped by while visiting my sister and it was worth the drive . The coffee was a build your own coffee with a lot to choose from I settled on a cookie butter cold brew . The cashier was super helpful since it was my first time and my drink came out fast . It was 7.00 for a 16oz which is pretty good for a cold brew with cold foam and specialty flavor . The coffee was well balanced and not too sweet . Give this place a try you won't regret it . Supporting local coffee places on sip at a time

    The drink 100/10 Customer Service could use a little work seemed a little dead and not welcoming seemed rude upon handing drinks Ambiance 10/10

    The beverages are really good and the overall vibe is a mellow spot with a smooth groove Industrial decor with indoor and outdoor seating. Customer service friendly! Clean and organized! Reasonable prices! The perfect spot to relax while being serviced by a EV Charger Kailey is the best! Very helpful and kind.

    Rival Coffee is located right beside Holiday Inn Express behind the Murrieta Mesa High School Ram Stadium. Rival has great coffee and tea options. Service was helpful and friendly. The place is huge!! Upon walking in, you'll notice that there are a lot of students on their laptops studying. Several outlets to plug your devices in. You will also notice sacks of coffee beans: Odyssey Pacamara from El Salvador Tracon from Ethiopia La Cumbre from Costa Rica Arabica Green Coffee from Honduras Service is fast and friendly. Drinks are delicious. Once you taste the coffee, you'll notice that they use high quality coffee beans!! Some of them will give you the caffeine kick you'll need to pull an all-nighter to study for that final!! Great place for coffee/tea. Check em out if you're in the area!!

    Amazing coffee & service. So sad I live an hour away. My hubby and I always come here if we're in the area.

    Was looking for a coffee shop on the way to the zoo. We originally had another spot selected but it was closed. This should have been first spot. Team was friendly, drinks were made fast, had a nice industrial vibe. I find it hard to get a solid blueberry latte. I was not disappointed. I did ask to make it less sweet as I prefer less sweet drinks

    Brioche avocado toast with iced matcha

    RIVAL NEVER LEAVES ME WITH REGRETS. I always go back and forth if I will use mobile order via the app or drive thru, but I always find myself in drive thru lol. Service is always quick and the servers are super nice. They always have a smile and you always leave with a smile. I never have been inside. Every item I have ordered was always fresh. Even though I get the half sizes, they do not skip on the portions. One day, I will make it inside to order but having kiddos the drive-thru makes everything easier for mom life.

    Blueberry Lemon Donut
    Karlie S.

    Delicious donuts and coffee! Friendly service at the cashiers and the lemon blueberry donut was to die for. I loved the open texture of the donuts, which makes them very light and airy. Coffee,according to my friend, was excellent. Very casual coffee house seating. There's a drive thru as well.

    We stayed right next to this spacious coffee spot, and when I heard they had a "Lucky Charms" latte, I knew I had to go. Unfortunately, they were out of Lucky Charms (did somebody steal them??? Lol) but I did opt to try their filled churro and filled Nilla wafer donuts. Those were delicious, and I got a different latte, which was also yummy. Great local, small business - check them out!

    Went to Murrieta Hot Springs for the weekend and I so needed a caffeine fix, so I looked up the Coffee Shops near me and " RIVAL " came up I thought the name was gangsta so I told my wife let's go there! I'm so glad I went because the coffee and food was amazing, I ordered the CORTADO & The Anaheim ... the whole place has them good vibes, great service! Will be back soon thank you Rival

    Matcha latte & Carnitas Stack
    Tram N.

    Cute place! There were already a lot of people inside, but there's plenty of seating. Food and drinks came out really quickly - maybe less than 10 minutes? We also came on a pretty busy Saturday morning too. I really liked the matcha and I also asked them for sweet cream on top. Their carnitas stack was also quite filling and had really great flavors. The carnitas was very tender as well. They do have a rewards/subscription program - which I thought was interesting. Will definitely be back for another visit!

And we will remain loyal customers because the product has always been great and the customer service has been friendly. We live in Murrieta So we frequent the Murrieta location Several times a week. Unfortunately over the past few months almost Every time we place our order of a 20 oz latte we get handed The 12 oz they usually are quick to Apologize and make our drinks again. However today once again we ordered the 20 oz and received the 12oz...when we brought this to the manager on duty I was told that I was charged for 12 oz...and would have to pay the difference for them to be remade. I recieved NO APOLOGY from manager and when I asked What I needed to do to recieve the correct order I was told I should double check the order to make sure they didn't make a mistake... apparently I work here...? the manager rolled her eyes when I asked why I NEEDED double check the order. She eventually resolved the issue after I suggested she give me a coffee token as I no longer had time to be rung up for the additional charge or to wait for then to remake my drinks btw...all this in front of other customers... It should be noted that the young lady who took our order independently offered to remake our order and apologized for her mistake. An example her manager on duty should emulate.

Wandered inside, the aroma of coffee luring me in. The baked goods in the case look delicious and well crafted. They offer a few vegan options- exciting find: chocolate Oreo frosted donut or chocolate with rainbow sprinkles, a vegan mini frosted carrot cake loaf made with almonds (not walnuts, yah!) and two kinds of sliced quick bread loaves: blueberry and cinnamon biscoffee. I order a choc donut and a carrot cake to go...a little treat and calorie splurge for Mother's Day! As for drinks...they offer the standard menu. One was irresistible to me today: Vegan Tiramisu "Almond milk" Latte, what a treat. Nice presentation, good balanced flavors, served at perfect ready to drink won't burn your tongue temperature, served in a thick amber glass with soft creamy foam topped with a land finger dusted with cocoa. Delicious, all I hoped it would be for a tiramisu lover's palate to be satisfied. Fast friendly people, including the locals who were welcoming. Comfortable soft black leather chairs to sink into next to tiny round cafe tables with Mable tops on black base...so cafe chic. I like the black and white contemporary decor, B&W large framed photography on the walls, good up tempo music. They have bar stool seating if you like watching barista's in action. There is two sides on seating in the cafe, the non-bar side has brick covered walls and a big brown leather couch to lounge in. A nice place to stop on a Saturday in spring, consistently busy but not crowded.

Anytime I'm in the area, this is a guaranteed stop for me. Their iced coffee is consistently smooth, balanced, and dialed in just right--not overly sweet, not watered down, just really well done. I've stuck with it every visit because it's that good. A lot of times my wife and I swing by with our kids--usually after a Sam's Club run or sometimes just with our little guy after leaving Powerhouse Gym--and it's always an easy, comfortable stop. They've got great pastries and sandwiches, which makes it perfect whether you're grabbing something quick or hanging out for a bit. Inside there's about a dozen seats, with big comfy chairs and a few tables, making it a great spot to relax, enjoy your drink, or even have a small work meeting. It's cozy without feeling crowded. Full honesty: I haven't even tried their hot lattes or much else because I'm so hooked on the iced coffee--but my wife orders different lattes and iced drinks all the time, and she's never had a single bad thing to say. And bonus points--their chocolate milk is a big hit with our little guy. If you're anywhere near Murrieta and serious about good coffee (especially iced), Rise to Grind is absolutely worth the stop.

You would think they would be roasting their own coffee beans but I doubt it considering the cheap coffee taste of their drinks. The barista was working alone and she acknowledged us couple of times that she will be right with us while she was making other drink orders which was nice. But when she came to get our drink orders she was not friendly and frankly "attitudy"...... Again if somebody does not want to work, they are not forced to do so! Customer service always should come first and that includes being friendly to your customers! The large size is double the size of other places which is good. But the quality of the coffee tasted very cheap and definately not top notch. Will I ever go back?! I doubt it...... Maybe in a million year or so!!!!

The establishment itself is clean, spacious, and has a great atmosphere, which made the experience even more disappointing. We ordered lattes around 2:30 PM, and it was not busy at all, so the nearly 20-minute wait made no sense for drinks that were clearly listed on the menu board. The first issue was that our order was handed out to the wrong customer because of a common name mix-up. A simple solution would be using last initials, nicknames, or order numbers for customers with common names. Unfortunately, it didn't get better from there. After remaking the drinks, the order was still wrong two more times. What made the situation even more frustrating was the lack of urgency to correct it. While we waited, staff continued pushing out other customers' orders while ours kept getting delayed and moved to the back. Mistakes happen, but three failed attempts for basic latte drinks and a 20-minute wait during a slow afternoon is unacceptable. The lack of organization, attention to detail, and customer service left a poor impression. Unfortunately, despite the nice environment, we will not be returning. I highly recommended that if you have a common name to add your last name initial.
