Love! New favorite coffee shop in the area! The waiting space is small almost nonexistent so hopefully there is a seat you can sit at and wait but I honestly don't mind! They get the coffee out so fast that it doesn't even matter! Staff is friendly and chatty and they make a fantastic latte which is the most important part! There is a little playground outside of their shop too which my daughter loves so that makes the trio easier to convince her to come!! Will be a daily occurrence for our fam from here on out!! read more

order: matcha einspanner garlic cream cheese salt bread highlights: -spacious and inviting interior - matcha is earthy and but nutty, I can tell they use a decently good matcha quality here :3 - the matcha is sweet, balanced; and on the thinner side (not super thick) but yummy overall - the salt bread is very flavorful with notes of garlic with the occasional flakey salt; very well done cons: - a bit pricey but I think that's just how it is nowadays so not something that bothers me too much; defo something to get for a nice treat in the morning overall: great experience, good matcha, great bread, would defo visit again! I would love to try their coffee einspanner next (ps. staff was also very friendly, they looked like they were putting genuine care into the drinks and use high quality coffee, although I cannot vouch for the taste as I've never tried, I observed that) read more

Order the pure matcha and it taste more lean to grass and refreshing note from matcha. I guess the pastry were so popular that I could not buy anything when I was in The store. I saw many many customers came here for the Ube I think I might come back for the une matcha. The am I an cf e of the store is very chill. It is very spacious! You mhghy come here for study or chat in the back of the store read more

TLDR - Set- Spanner is impressive, everything else is a little lackluster. By no means is 3 stars a BAD review by my metrics, on the other hand, to me 3 stars means I would definitely stop by if I was in the area and wanted a coffee. We got all of their signatures and an iced americano. A set-spanner, their signature spanish latte, and their set tonic. The set spanner was very tasty- the cream top complements their hazelnut latte very well. If i stopped by, this is what I would order. Their spanish tastes like every other spanish latte I've ever had. Nothing impressive but nothing to dock points on. Their set tonic was the drink I had the highest expectations for. Its supposed to be sweetener with mesil - a korean plum extract. However, it was a little lackluster as the plum flavor didn't pop out at all even though I asked them for more of it, I'm not sure if its because it wasn't dissolved well or because it's not that strong but I would've liked the plum flavor to just come out a little more. The service was good and overall I'd recommend trying it out. read more

I had a below average experience at SET Coffee (Chino). I ordered the Set-Spanner ($7.25). It's Injeolmi Cold Foam, Espresso, and Hazelnut. The drink will wake you up. However, it tastes like watered down, gritty, nutty protein powder. It tastes poorly prepared and frugal. I arrived at SET Coffee (Chino) on Monday (around 9:16AM). Parking is easy. The lot is very big. Staff is friendly and welcoming. However, it's strange how I had to tell Staff that their charged price didn't match the menu price (ex: cash register said $7.50 while menu said $7.25). Staff immediately apologized and fixed the issue; Staff explained that they didn't update the system yet.... My drink took about two minutes. Fast. As mentioned, I disliked the Set-Spanner ($7.25). It all tastes like budget cuts. The ice is HUGE and PACKED; the coffee flavor is heavily watered down; and the prevailing flavor is bitter nutty grits. Fortunately, the enduring caffeine has utility. Thankfully, SET Coffee (Chino) is a study/work paradise. I can easily understand desperate college students using this place. There's about eight electrical outlets! AMAZING!! There's also customer internet with password; details are written on the counter's barrier in white ink. The location also has an attractive hidden backroom which has cute greenery and sleek reflective decor. The utility of the space is what saves this experience. In addition, SET Coffee (Chino) has a self-service water station. There's also a gender neutral restroom, and I enjoyed the smooth, rhythmic music. The location is also clean and well-ventilated. Overall, SET Coffee (Chino) is a HUGE disappointment. It's not awful, but in good conscience, I won't ever recommend this location as is. In the end, I left SET Coffee (Chino) with a fake smile and a bitter heart. 2.9 out of 5 read more

There's a lot of hype around Set with lines outside the door and for good reason. In a boom of coffee shops in the Chino/Chino Hills area, I keep coming back for the Set latte. Always bustling with people studying, talking, or just Vibing, you really feel a vibe inside that's enjoyable and relaxing. read more

Saw this just opened recently so decided to check them out. It is a nice looking coffee spot. Interior looks pretty cool. Besides the main area they also have some more seating in the back. I ordered the Strawberry Fizzy Lemonade. Drink came out so quick. The staffs were chill and friendly. I enjoyed my drink. It was good and refreshing. read more

Right atmosphere, A1 coffee, efficient service. What more can you ask for from a new coffee shop making its debut in Chino Hills? Was lucky enough to check this spot out before their grand opening day. Came back during the actual day and line was reminiscent of Black Friday. But that really just speaks to the anticipation and success of a well thought out space. I don't know if I can ever explore more of their menu because I'm still stuck on their Set Spanner. Congrats to the crew! I'll be back as a repeat customer. read more

Honestly loved the vibe here. It's minimal, clean, and feels like one of those spots you accidentally end up staying longer than planned. The drinks were solid, really smooth and not overly sugary like a lot of places. You can tell there's some intention behind their menu and flavors. Also appreciated how quick everything was without feeling rushed. Staff was nice, and the overall experience just felt easy. Would definitely come back for a chill coffee run or to sit and catch up with a friend. read more

Amazing quality, everything was super tasty and honestly just really well done. The set-spanner is out of this world and easily one of the best drinks I've had. The ube matcha is the best matcha I've ever tried, the flavor is so smooth and different in a good way. The shop itself is super unique and the layout is amazing. They have a nice study area if you want to get work done and also a more social community space which is a cool balance. Their merch is actually really high quality too, I ended up buying a jacket and I'm really happy with it. Staff and owners are some of the best, super welcoming and you can tell they care about what they're building. Definitely a spot worth coming back to. read more

Set coffee is an amazing place for your coffee desires. I loved learning about the backstory of their name being "Set" the number 3 in Korean for the three founders of this shop. The decor inside is relaxing for you and your party to unplug and enjoy each other's company. It is a delight to be inside with great music that sets you in a pleasant mood. There is a new back room area for bigger groups or even events. The line was out the door when we arrived, but the staff moved so fast that we barely waited. The coffee was very good. We ordered all three of the signature drinks, and the Set Spanner was the star of the show. It was crafted after a Korean rice cake dish, and they nailed it to perfection. The tonic coffee was also great. I am a fan of sparkling water so it was great for me. The pastries are also good. The salt bread with garlic cream is a must try. read more

SET Coffee is one of the most beautiful coffee shops I've ever been to. The front seating area has beautiful and large tables with bright lighting but the area in the back is warm and homey, like a comfort space. I felt like I was transported to a completely different space with their aesthetic & high ceilings. Service was friendly and welcoming upon entry and the space was remarkably clean. Drinks are reasonably priced, not too much ice and appropriate sizing yay! Set Spanner (8/10): The coffee in this was sooo yum. The cold foam really does taste like injeolmi haha which unfamiliar (at least in coffee for me) but pleasant! Set Latte (7.5/10): Liked the cinnamon in this! It wasn't too overbearing, complimented the brown sugar and honey very well. Reminded me a little of a Spanish Latte. Matcha Einspanner (8/10): Decent matcha, I wouldn't say my favorite but I would still get it again. I like their cold foam it wasn't too thick and was delicious. Strawberry Matcha (8.5/10): Whatever they use for the strawberry flavor complimented the matcha taste well and was very refreshing. Excited to see this place flourish in Chino and would make the drive for another visit! read more

We tried the ube matcha latte and set latte. We got less sweet for both and that was perfect for us. The ube foam is very creamy and strong but it does overpower the matcha a little bit, so if you're looking for a strong matcha drink I would get something else! I loved how the sweet ube and coconut paired together with the hint of bitterness of the matcha though. The latte was good too, the injeolmi flavor was very strong. There is a good amount of seating, but anyone looking to study, note that the amount of outlets are sparse. read more

I'm a sucker for these cute cafes, it's a good spot to go and just enjoy your drink, rather than grab and go and don't really know how your coffee tastes like. The shop is relatively small, with a communal table and a few 2 person tables in the back. Depending on what your visit should be, maybe bring noise cancelling headphones in case people are there to chit chat. There were a few people working when I visited. Their menu isn't much, but got the basics and 3 specialty drinks: injeolmi (Korean soybean powder, think kinako in Japanese desserts) latte, green plum espresso tonic, and a cinnamon latte. They have pastries from Long Beach, Nonna Mercado, I believe? I was stopping by before meeting up for breakfast so didn't try any. I went with their espresso tonic, highly recommending this for those who want something refreshing instead of a sweet/creamy drink. My friend got their injeolmi latte, which had that sweet and creamy taste. It was delicious, the worker there said it's their most popular drink, makes sense. Did I taste much of a soybean powdery taste? Nope, but I also find kinako mochi super plain. By the way, they serve Onyx coffee here, which has recently won #1 in world's best coffee. Another plus! Definitely coming back! read more

Came here around 2pm and this place was packed inside. The line started outside. There were like 8 people ahead of me but the line moved fast and the drinks came out quick. The inside has 2 seating areas. I didn't go to the back portion, but it looked like a decent size. Tried the coldbrew since they were out of the Kyoto cold brew. It's a good cb. Nice and bold. I also tried the Setspnanner. The drink itslef was a good hazelnut drink, but not very strong in coffee flavor. I did not care for the foam on top. However, once it mixed with the drink I would describe it as tasting like Honey Nut Cherios milk. Service was friendly. The only thing that actually bugged me was seeing some of the staff members touch their hair or face while working and not washing their hands immediately afterwards. For now, im not sure if ill he back. read more

I wish all these shops came sooner! But I'm glad they're here now. I love that I can grab a really great coffee for my target/ tjmaxx stops that doesn't involve Starbucks. The location has tons of parking and is centered in a large shopping center, with close by shopping as mentioned above. The inside of the store is intentional with a minimalistic order counter, letting there be more space to sit, work or meet with friends. I'm lucky enough to have been twice before their grand opening and the coffee is great. The employees are so, so welcoming and friendly. I never felt rushed to order or just another customer. You would never know they were in a soft opening phase with both the crowds, and quality of drink. They've been quick to push out the drinks leaving minimal wait time. I ordered my standard Spanish latte and they do it well. Their menu is expansive beyond the normal lattes, including their own signature drinks. read more

SET Coffee - Matcha einspanner - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Chino, California

I was here on a Thursday morning at 10. There was a line when I got there. This was because the customers were studying the menu by the register. I don't know why the store doesn't have a menu on the wall or hand outs. So customers can only see it when it's their turn to order at the front. Anyways, I ordered a hot hazelnut latte. I was surprised to see how small it was. 10 oz for a $7 latte and I tipped $1. I mean it was smooth and delicious. But $8 for a baby sized latte? Customer service could be more friendly. At least flash a smile once in a while! read more

Saw this place on TikTok and wanted to support local businesses around the area. Honestly, though, I thought drinks were VERY MID, and I don't think they were worth the price. Btw, it was $15 for two drinks. I got a matcha einspanner and set-spanner for my bf that was recommended by the worker who took my order. The worker was very nice and helpful, and the vibe of the store was clean and trendy. However, the hype of the store did not live up to my expectations. First off, the cream top of my matcha einspanner was very thin and sank; at that point, it was like there was no cream top at all. Also, the matcha seemed like it wasn't whisked and incorporated well since it was grainy and all at the bottom of the cup. I had to mix well for the matcha flavor to be somewhat apparent, while the grainy pieces made the drink taste like I was drinking micro pieces of grass. The graininess and lack of matcha flavor kind of made the drink a bit unpleasant to drink. Next, for the set-spanner, the cream top was a bit better since it was thicker and I could visibly see and taste it. Also, there was the same problem with the drink being very grainy, but that is probably due to the injeolmi, although I've had other injeolmi coffee drinks that weren't this grainy. Despite the graininess, the drink had a mild coffee flavor that I wish were stronger. Btw, I ordered these two drinks with less ice as well so that the flavor profile would not dilute on my drive home, which was about 10 mins. Yet, from my experience, I don't think the drinks are that good or unique for the price. Since this place just opened, hopefully they can work on building and perfecting the quality of their drinks. Once they get there, I'll probably try again in the future! read more

SET Coffee - Set-spanner and matcha einspanner - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Chino, California

I came here on a Friday with my cousins for our Eid coffee. It was a little hard to find since the map just took us to the plaza, but it is located next to Sunright. I love Korean cafes and this one was no different. The interior is super calming inside. There are big tables to sit, work, and chat at. The service was super kind and friendly as well. They also had delicious looking pastries. I ordered a SET-spanner and really enjoyed it. The injeolmi cream was lightly nutty, and the drink overall was really creamy. If I wanted something a little stronger, I would probably add an extra shot for more of a balance, as it did lean towards creamy, but not in a very heavy way. My fam got a Spanish Latte, Strawberry Matcha, and Matcha Einspanner. They all enjoyed their drinks although I don't think they use puree for their strawberry flavor. Excited to come back again! read more

SET coffee is amazing. The SET latte is one of the best latte's I've ever had! We will be back!

Fire lattes. Amazing vibes. Great service. Such a great addition to this area. I really enjoyed the injeolmi latte. Really good balance overall. The interior design is also good. Very spacious and modern. read more

Finally got a chance to check out this new coffee shop and I'm really glad I did! The customer service was warm and welcoming, the coffee was delicious and fairly priced, and parking was easy to find. Honestly, no complaints! I spent the day working here and it ended up being the perfect spot. The space has great natural lighting, especially by the big windows, outlets at every table, and it made for such a calm and productive atmosphere. They have a nice selection of drinks, and their signature lattes looked really tempting. Lately I've been on a flat white obsession, so I ordered one and was very happy with my purchase. It was beautifully made and the flavor notes were perfectly balanced. I also noticed they're working on opening up more space in the back, which I'm excited to check out next time. Looking forward to coming back and working from here again! read more

We visited during their soft opening and was really excited to try their drinks. TBH I was extra excited to see the interior because here in Inland Empire we don't see a lot of nice coffee spots like we do in LA or OC. The space has a clean, minimal feel. It's simple but thoughtfully put together. Theres a nice communal table in front to do some work. In the back there's ample seating - perfect area to grab some matcha and catch up with friends. We tried two drinks: Matcha Eispanner and Ube Matcha - The standout for me was the Ube coconut matcha. smooth, vibrant, and not too sweet. I could really taste the Ube and the coconut balance which is hard to get right. I'm really hoping it'll stay on the menu permanently and not just for the soft opening specials. The owners and staff were very friendly. We were able to meet the owner's wife and another owner's mom- such nice ladies. They told us all about how the business came into fruition. So excited to have them in town and we cannot wait to try the rest of the delicious drinks on the menu. :) read more

I'm really sorry, but seems that anything that is promoted by TikTok seems to be hyped up and get long lines of sheeps like me to go and try The coffee is completely tasteless and taste more like milk plus hazelnut syrup. The Uber Ma matcha sold out by 1 PM so I guess they didn't make enough ingredient . The Matcha croissant was very bland, no much a taste at all so it's probably made with the cheaper baking powder. I don't think I will be going back read more

Loved everything about this new coffee shop! Interior was top-notch. Currently, their hours are soft open hours. It is my new favorite place to catch up with my friends or bring my family. The staff was so friendly and really accommodating, they made sure that the drinks are ordered were suited to my liking and willing to make any adjustments as needed! I'm excited to see the back as they are in the process of having more seating! Drinks I ordered and highly recommend: - Strawberry Matcha: I'm not a matcha fan but this definitely changed my mind! Perfect amount of sweetness. - Spanish Latte: Classic, I added cold foam on top and it was the perfect addition. - Sets-Spanner: WOW!! Never tasted a drink like this before. It exceeded my expectations - I love the added Korean touch to this drink! - Cafe Latte: Latte art was 10/10. Drink was the right temp & not too milky either. Definitely coming back again read more

Love this spot! As soon as you come in you can feel how much love was poured into creating the space. The ambience, decor, music selection, and curated options are all amazing. Everything on the menu looked amazing, hard to decide, but I went with their Set Latte which is inspired by korean hotteok. Absolutely delicious. The chocolate croissant was also so good. To top everything off, the service was amazing. Both girls working the counter Tuesday morning were so sweet and accomadating to any questions. Parking is also plentiful. :) read more

it was my second time coming to this new place in the last two days, i got the set spanner both times i've been here and a chocolate croissant. the set spanner is good for anyone that likes not so sweet coffee it's really good! the chocolate croissant was so flaky and soft it's what every chocolate croissant should be like!! what really set it in my mind that i will be back was the fact that the guy at the register remembered me from the other day, such a small detail but that's what really matters to any new coming customers. the service was super quick both days and consistent coffee overall!! read more

I'm obsessed. The coffee scene here was abysmal, but SET came in with amazing drinks and friendly service! I crave the set spanner all the time now. The subtle injeolmi flavor is chef's kiss. It's not often that a cafe has a drink that I constantly crave, but the uniqueness of the set spanner sets it apart from so many other drinks. Highly highly recommend. read more

There's 3 things I always look for in a coffee shop & Set has it: consistency, quality of espresso, and the vibes. Consistency: I've gone 4 times to this coffee shop and each time my drinks are consistently made the same! I expect my lattes to be made the same every time and that's what keeps me coming back. Quality of espresso: I've gone to other coffee shops to pay $7 and end up with a latte with sour espresso Set's espresso is always dialed in, rich and creamy! All their lattes have the perfect color, sweetness, and kick of coffee flavor. I recommend their Spanish latte and honey lavender lattes! Vibes: The baristas are nice & friendly! The space itself is warm and open. There are about 4 large tables with outlets at each table. There is additional seating in the back that is still under construction. Can't wait for it to open up! Overall, it's the kind of coffee shop that keeps you coming back, not just for the drinks, but for the whole experience! read more

SET Coffee - Set spanner with the injeolmi cold foam! The cold foam is so good! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Chino, California

This spot is great. Really enjoy the Kyoto cold brew. It sells out quick so I try to get there when I can get it but they also have a really good normal cold brew. I do like their nutty espresso drink as well since I usually only like a hint of sweetness and not to overpower; it is a really nice touch. Their Korean espresso drink is amazing as well. I enjoy coming here a few times a week. They have great coffee. read more

My fiancé and I were visiting family in the area and we heard about this soft opening so we decided to check it out! Usually whenever I check out a new coffee shop, I get a cortado to judge a few things: how well they dialed in their espressos, the quality of their beans and whether or not I can taste their notes, and how well they can ratio the milk with the espresso. Cortado was rock solid and its definitely gonna be my go to if i want something light and very coffee forward. I think I overheard from the owners that they use Jetty beans so you can count on a high quality coffee based drink from an Americano to lattes. My fiancé ordered one of their signature drinks aka the Set-Spanner and she thought it was great too! I took a few sips of it and I have to agree. Think of it as a coffee version of leftover cinnamon toast crunch milk with some nice sweet cream on top. For me, you'll have some places that just add way too much sweetner/other fillers that the actual taste of of the coffee is just masked or there isn't enough sweetner/flavor to where it just falls flat. They hit this one right in that sweet spot of just right. All in all, I'm stoked to have a new shop in Chino and I cant wait to try more of their drinks! read more
