One of my favorite simple coffee drinks in the area is the New Orleans iced coffee here. It's made…read morewith chicory-style cold brew, milk, and simple syrup. Very straightforward, but really well balanced. If you've never had chicory coffee before, it has a deeper, slightly earthy flavor that stands out from a standard cold brew without being overly bitter. It feels inspired by Louisiana/New Orleans-style coffee rather than the super sugary "dessert coffee" trend that a lot of places lean into right now. What I especially appreciate is the price point. At around $5.75, it feels reasonable for a specialty coffee drink that still tastes unique and intentional.

Mother's Day started off great. I stopped by Nook Coffee Bar to surprise my wife with coffee and…read morebreakfast. The line was out the door, but I knew she'd love waking up to a nice cup of coffee, so the wait didn't bother me. I ordered coffee along with three ham and cheese croissants to go. When I got home, my wife was so happy. She ate part of her croissant but didn't finish it. My son did the same and only picked at the edges. I ended up finishing mine and the rest of my son's. About 8 hours later, after grilling dinner, both my wife and I suddenly became extremely sick. Severe stomach pain, nonstop trips to the restroom, and all the signs of food poisoning hit us hard. Our guest had just started eating dinner while my wife and I were both stuck dealing with the symptoms. The symptoms carried throughout the entire night and are still lingering. Both of us have been dealing with fevers, body aches, nausea, stomach cramps, and constant trips to the restroom. It completely ruined what started as such a special Mother's Day for our family. I normally don't leave reviews like this, but I felt it was important to share our experience. I truly hope this was an isolated incident, especially on a busy holiday, but I also hope food handling and quality control are looked into so no other families have to spend Mother's Day ending like ours did.

I asked one of the baristas if they recommended the strawberry or double goose matcha and they suggested double goose. I'm a recent matcha lover but I'm convinced anyone who doesn't like matcha would like this one! The line was just outside the door but this team works so quickly that I was out of there within 10 minutes of joining the line. I love that the oat milk was already included in their matcha lattes as well! And I surprisingly had several options for seats to wait for my drink even with a lengthy line. I will be coming here every time I'm in Rancho!

One thing that really stood out to me was that they even have a prayer room, which is something you do not usually see at cafes and made the place feel very thoughtful and welcoming. The service was excellent from start to finish, and the drinks were honestly one of the most unique cafe menus I've tried in a while. The coffee tasted so good, and there were many interesting drinks I had never seen before. You can tell they put effort into creating something different instead of serving the usual basic cafe menu. Definitely a place I would come back to again. I also just found out they have a location in my hometown, Chicago, so now I'm excited to try that one too.

The space feels modern yet cozy -- great for catching up with friends. There are also two small tables outside designated for takeout guests, which is a thoughtful touch. The staff was very friendly and proactively introduced the seasonal menu, which I appreciated. I ordered the Tiramisu Pistachio latte -- the pistachio flavor was fragrant and nutty, though I didn't taste much tiramisu. Still, it was enjoyable overall, and the coffee itself was aromatic and well-balanced. We visited around 5 p.m. on a Friday and it wasn't crowded at all. Parking is somewhat limited, so you may need to find street parking nearby. If you're looking for a quieter spot to sit and chat, this is a solid choice. My friend and I ended up talking for over an hour comfortably.

My cousin and I met for brunch at +Bake Café. For a restaurant that offers food, there was very…read morelimited seating and no sense of order. For instance, there were groups that came after me who rushed for the table and didn't even order for a long time. Even when we pointed it out, the restaurant didn't care. Honestly if they waited, the folks who came first would have been done with their food by the time their food comes out. Total chaos. Also they ask their guests to put away their own food. The guests before us didn't so I had to clean up the table myself. My cousin has a health issue where the outdoor heat isn't good for her so I had to be a vulture with these tables. Sigh. And in general I know she prefers the cuteness of the indoors. I wanted to get the Take Ur Seat Salad, but they would only add chicken to it when I wanted a different protein. Honestly I'm not sure what's so hard about throwing on a different protein. But they let me do the rice bowl and substitute the rice with salad... Honestly isn't it easier to let me do the salad and add protein? So my cousin and I both got the Rice Bowl ($15.95) with the Longanisa. My cousin had hers normal with the rice and I had the salad substitute. For those unfamiliar longanisa is a sweet and savory sausage. The food tasted decent but the portion is really small for the pricing. There was barely any egg. Not a very satisfying meal. The experience isn't enjoyable enough for me to come back and I feel like the portions are small. It might be a good spot to pick up coffee for the road, but not a sit down brunch.

You most likely will need to walk a bit since parking is pretty crowded, especially on weekends. Service: workers are not very friendly nor super helpful. Didn't feel very welcomed by them. Vibes: stop, order, leave kind of place. Drink: I ordered the hojicha latte with matcha cream top and it was very good. Not too sweet; I tasted the nuttiness of the hojicha while enjoying the slight umami of the matcha cream top. Would order this again.

I usually get 50% sweetness but we opted for 60% for both of our drinks this time. Surprisingly, the drinks both tasted unsweet, almost like it was watered down. They weren't anything special. From what I've seen on other reviews, some of their drinks run on the less sweet side which coincides with our experience. I'd adjust accordingly and get a drink with a bit higher sweetness than you're accustomed to. The customer service was nice and efficient though!
