I really love the service and vibe of this cafe, and they have a great selection, but don't get their matcha. I tried the first time around and it was okay, I ordered it again with the pumpkin cream and it was super milky. Unfortunately it tasted like I was just drinking milk. Just stick to the coffee and food if you're coming here, the teas are a miss.
Ventured out to Canyon Crest Crest area to explore a bit and found this beautiful coffee shop. Love the interior and how airy and fresh it was on a hot day. They have a huge assortment of pastries and food so that's always a plus. The menu isn't very large but like most coffee shops they have seasonal drinks, syrups and they use Minor Figures Oat milk which is my favorite kind. It's so good. Service was great! My barista was so kind, gave me some options on drinks since it was my first time. Service was also really fast. I came in on a busy Saturday and my drink was done in about 3-4 minutes after placing the order. Super happy with my drink and definitely recommend visiting. The area and shopping center is nice with gift shops and restaurants and fountains too, lots of seating too!
As soon as I walked up my eyes liked their outside patio and view. Peaceful and perfect for that alfresco outside dining experience. Now the inside is another story. Sad emoji face display after I went inside but first the coffee. I had their Espresso Shot and Cortado to start with. The coffee Is legit and I say that because I'm familiar with the Arcade Coffee Roaster so there's that. I also ordered the Cherry Glaze Latte which was a pretty good balance and I'm glad I did since it's seasonal. Ok so I'm not judging how people like to live but when you walk into a place where you have to clean your table and chair before you sit? That's a problem and especially if they just opened?! Come on man. Plus the windows were Hella greasy with fingerprints everywhere?! Yeah, totally killing the inside vibe. But that's just me. The service was good so no complaints there but I will just say be very careful of the hidden fees like extra charges for cold foam and syrup? So my latte ended costing me almost a Hamilton! It would've been nice if they said hey we're charging you for these extras. So not cool! And if I would've known that then it would be a hard no on the latte. And that's my take onto this shop, Peace out...
Their breakfast is good and flavorful. The arcmuffin was quite spicy actually but delish, with the bed of soft scrambled eggs, cheddar cheese, sausage & the chili crunch oil aioli. Small sandwich but it was packed! Quite messy and oily. The muffin is made there I think and had a nice bounce and slight sweetness maybe. Not much frills with their drinks. However, the prices are so expensive. Their matcha tea 12 oz with added syrup was nearly $10 for a small drink and almond milk sub. Got cardamom but I didn't taste the flavor. It was also basically $16 for the handheld bfast muffin sammich. In total, almost $30 for 2 small things. Yikes. LA pricing but it's not even LA. Kind of a small space to work at and get coffee. It was packed on a weekday late afternoon. Seating outside. I think they have 2 restrooms. Will try their sweet baked goods next time! I've also been to the location on Main St. in downtown which had good breakfast as well.
We love coming here, even though we don't get to make our way out here too often. Their sourdough is amazing and the coffee is even better. This visit they had a promotion where you get a free coffee with a food item purchase. I got avocado toast and added an egg and a brew latte. My husband got the Arc sandwich I think it's called and a cappuccino. The brew latte was phenomenal, I hadn't tried it before and was pleasantly surprised. It's a cold brew that comes out of a tap, so I was a bit nervous it was gunna be mid. The only issue this time was the food took almost 30 minutes to come out, which I don't think is typically normal. My husbands sandwich was so good, it was hot, cheesy, and full of flavor. My avocado toast was fine, it's just the pickled red onions overpowered the avocado. It's a good spot in a cute area. Definitely recommend
Aesthetic-wise, Arcade Coffee Roasters gives major hipster vibes -- in a good way. The music is nice and soothing, there are plenty of tables, and it feels like the kind of place you could hang out for a while. The person taking my order was very nice. I ordered the Arc muffin, and WOW. It was soooo delicious and packed with cheese. Not gonna lie, it was pretty big, so it was a little hard to bite into, and it was so juicy that it literally moved around every time I took a bite messy but absolutely worth it. I also tried the draft latte, which was my first time ever having coffee on draft. It was incredibly smooth and surprisingly strong. I really liked it. If I lived closer, this would 100% be my go-to coffee spot. Great drinks, great vibes, and solid food -- definitely worth a visit.
Perfect day for a seasonal drink and breakfast entree! We ordered the seasonal earth matcha, raspberry matcha, steak breakfast burrito (salsa verde is a must), and bagel with chili crisp cream cheese. Matchas here were mildly better than the other arcade cafes I've tried in Riverside. Packed and lively cafe with many guests doing work on their computers. Plenty of outdoor seating. Baristas were kind, checking in on pending orders.
I have mixed feelings about arcade bakehouse . The drinks are honestly a let down. I've tried two different drinks and they were both kind of watery and bland. Maybe it's because arcade specializes in coffee. I don't drink coffee so I got a matcha latte with simple syrup and it was very bland and watery. The next day, I came back and got a yuzu peach green tea and a steak sandwich. The drink was again bland. I thought it would be like a sweet refresher type of tea but I watched the barista put a tea bag in water and serve it to me. For $4.50 I expected maybe some yuzu syrup or something. It was also unsweetened. If you like strong tea too, this is not the tea to order. They were happy to add some simple syrup for me after I tried it though. Now for the good parts! The steak sandwich was phenomenal! Hot, tender ribeye, delicious aioli and melty cheese. It was a very satisfying lunch while studying. This spot is great for studying. It has a bunch of small tables with plugs on a long green bench, as some small tables next to the windows (no plugs), and one large table that people share to work at with plugs. The music is a tad bit loud but not bad for a lively coffee shop. It's not as overstimulating as other coffee shops.
Came here to on a Monday afternoon and it was busy! Many people were working on laptops, catching up with friends, or reading. Thankfully, there were places to sit outside as the inside was packed. Georgia was very sweet in helping me pick a drink as this was my first time. She even gave me a sample of it first and it was delicious. I ordered the largest draft latte they had, and I wish they had larger sizes in the cold coffees. The coffee did seem pricy for a 12 oz. at $7.25. Their choices for drinks are a bit limited and there are no cold foams or creamy toppers, but the coffee was really good and so was the service.
Arcade Coffee Roasters - The Bakehouse is located in the Canyon Crest Town Centre, just steps from East Coast Bagel. I love stopping by for breakfast and coffee. They have a case full of pastries but I usually go for the Arcmuffin - sausage, frittata, their English muffin, chili crunch aioli, and cheddar cheese. This is a savory breakfast that is incredibly flavorful. They used to carry the LBS, which is Longanisa (Filipino sausage), frittata, their plain bagel, plantain ketchup, and American cheese. I recently tried their Avo Toast and was surprised how delicious it was - the flavor profile leans toward pickle and I loved it. Of course, I love pairing any of their breakfast items with either an iced vanilla latte or honey cinnamon latte - both are really good. And the baristas sure make pretty latte art. They also sell freshly baked sourdough bread, which is amazing. The ambiance is modern with a lovely atmosphere and friendly employees. Inside it's bright with lots of natural light -- my kind of vibe. The outdoor patio is where I usually like to sit. It's especially beautiful during the spring when it's not too hot or cold outside. Parking during the weekend mornings can be challenging, as the town center gets pretty busy. Overall, Arcade Coffee Roasters in Riverside has grown on me over the years and I just love coming back here to start my mornings with a hearty breakfast and a delicious cup of coffee.
The vibe of this place is spectacular and calming! I came here on an early morning and was greeted with the warms smells of the coffee turning! The menu had everything you need and was super easy to navigate! I went with the breakfast sandwich and I must say the portion and taste was exquisite! The cold brew was my vibe with hints of chocolate and hazelnut, both refreshing and that caffeine kick to get the morning going.
Reviews are largely positive. People enjoy the welcoming atmosphere, quality coffee and drinks, and house-made pastries. Staff are described as friendly.

They have 3 locations and I thought the food had a different take than their downtown location. I came here mostly to study and to get a coffee to do some work. But I was intrigued at their food menu that I ended up getting a Steak Sando. I was not disappointed. It had a lot of flavor and most important part was that I was full. They have a lot of other food dishes that I need to try but their coffee was solid! Come here if you tryna do some work inside or outside with some terrific food! read more

Came in for Brunch, very good food 5 Stars. I've only visited their other location in the Industrial area. So first time coming to the Main St Local. This place has hands down some of the best coffee in SoCal. I buy their beans, I drink their espresso hot and Cold, their cold brew, and pour overs are top! I've had some very polite and friendly outgoing service here. I've only had one poor experience at the register with a not so friendly, no effort on putting g customer service at the front with good body language and friendly demeanor. I guess everyone has bad days to bad for her. But other than that this place is one of my favorites. Great coffee, atmosphere, staff, food ect... read more

I have checked out their tasting room, and while I really enjoyed the coffee and snacks, it missed the vibrancy and energy of a busy coffee shop. The bakehouse is the sibling of the other location, and it is definitely the spot I'm looking for. Delicious seasonal coffee, assortments of delicious pastries, and a great open space for studying with an extensive outdoor environment. The baristas are friendly and service is fast. Easily one of my favorite coffee spots in the IE/Riverside area. read more

wouldn't return. i ordered a large hot latte with salted caramel syrup and cold foam. it came to $10. and this size was the large! the taste of the coffee was okay. nothing great nothing bad. it was truly the size and the price of the drink that was upsetting. this size at starbucks is the smallest cup they offer, however at arcade coffee it's the LARGEST cup they offer, and it was $10. Super disappointing. they're was 3 people ahead of us in line and we only waited 3 or 4 minutes to order. when we did order it was nothing special, the guy who took our order wasn't rude nor extremely nice. just seemed whatever. read more

So whenever I go to arcade and get Arcade's perfect coffee I bring a mug. I sip their delightful bean water and relax. Arcade gives you free refills on black coffee when you're sipping at the shop... which is baller and fantastic. BUT TODAY! Literally the greatest thing happened. I was sitting outside the shop with a friend and found my cup empty. I thought to myself, "hm, time for a refill," and got up to get a refill. WHEN I ENTERED THE SHOP ESTHER DUBYAK WAS IMMEDIATELY READY (attentively saw me coming in with empty mug) WITH COFFEE POT IN HAND TO REFILL MY MUG! What! THAT is service! COME ON! LIKE WHO SEES SOMEONE COMING FROM OUTSIDE AND GETS READY TO REFILL MY MUG? NEVER IN MY LIFE! I'm speechless. Is this a Michelin star coffee shop??? Well done, Arcade. You've done it again. read more
While the service was incredible, quick, and efficient. The drink itself was lacking flavor, I have had various chais and the occasional chai is much better than this one. You can find a better tasting chai at Starbucks. I would not recommend. Ambience is great and ample seating space. read more

I normally do not write bad reviews, but the last 3-4 times we have been in the area my family has got coffee here and all the lattes are not good. It seems like they barely put any espresso in the lattes and it is very milky. It used to be good, but seems to have gone downhill. I even asked for an extra shot last time and it still was gross. read more

Minus one star bc very expensive! Other than that, had a good time here. These sandwiches were VERY flavorful, which honestly was surprising for a coffee shop type place. There is a lot of seating, but they were booked and busy. Tables are bolted to the ground and chairs are very heavy outside, so kinda hard to accommodate large parties. read more
It's really hard to find good coffee in this area but this place did not disappoint. This place does get packed but the coffee is worth it. I had one of their seasonal drinks I believe it is a pecan "something or other" cold brew. It was my first time but I will be coming back! read more

OBSESSED with this coffee shop! my friend and I arrived early in the morning and had access to a wide variety of seating options. I was super excited about the many outlets lol. the space is beautiful and has a lot of natural light, and the music isn't too loud. we both ordered the fall draft, and it was delicious! I'm not sure if I'd order it again, however, because the spices were a little strong for me. however if you're a big fan of PSLs, this is definitely the drink for you! staff was super helpful and friendly, and I could see that other customers felt the same way about the service. this was a wonderful place to camp out and work remotely - I'm excited to visit their other locations! read more

Thank you so much for your review, Heather! We truly love our burrito…
My favorite coffee in Riverside so far. I love their iced vanilla latte. The main complaint is that the large size lattes aren't very consistent. The food here is fine. Definitely a cool, casual brunch place on the weekends. The chorizo hash is a must try with their delicious organic egg. Seriously made me switch from free-range to pasture-raised eggs. read more

Solid coffee and baked goods. Frequent this location in canyon crest town centre and have always had a good experience! Recommend their cappuccino and chocolate chip cookies! Location is also good for studying and reading as well. Good ambiance, big tables and a good amount of seating though it can get busy. read more

With a clean interior, aesthetic outdoor seating, and delicate portion sizes, the Bakehouse is my favorite eatery at the Canyon Crest plaza to grab a fancy brunch. It's convenient to swing by after a morning of errands and grocery shopping, and parking is abundant too. Arcade is a farm-to-table style cafe that boasts fresh and quality local ingredients. I don't usually order drinks so I can't speak to the quality of the coffee, but the food is true to their concept. Items run quite pricey, so lunch here is a treat rather than a habit. My favorite items are the brekkie sammie and the chorizo hash which come out crisp, warm, and buttery. The many savory flavors in these two dishes combine wonderfully, but the dishes tend to be heavy with oil. I've tried other items as well. The seasonal french toast is always fun to try, but absolutely must be split with another person or the large portion size, which looks impressive, quickly becomes too much. The french toasts are very sweet and buttery, so for a lighter sweet treat, the Bakehouse's a la carte pastries hit the spot well. The Steak "Sando" was okay-- I would recommend skipping it as it was dry and also just not a sando. The name desperately needs to be changed, as the word sando is not a cute abbreviation of sandwich but refers to the Japanese style of sandwich made with shokupan, and absolutely not focaccia. Weirdly enough though, the best part of the dish was the focaccia, which you can order a loaf of on certain days. I tried a potato and pork belly one, which was delicious toasted in the oven, albeit a little too oily. Overall, I would recommend checking the Bakehouse out, but definitely peruse Yelp for pictures of the food first. read more

Very cute and aesthetic cafe chain in Riverside area that seems to attract a certain crowd of coffee-crazed crunchy people lol. I enjoy grabbing coffee/matcha here and doing some work in the cafe. The food is usually quite good too, although a bit pricey for cafe prices. I do see that sometimes they offer brunch or more fleshed-out dishes, but information on that doesn't seem readily available and I wish it was because I'd love to try it! The coffee itself here is pretty acidic and not entirely my favorite. The matcha has always been pretty decent, and no complaints about clumping or bitterness here! I come here mostly for the flavored/seasonal drinks. Lines are commonly out the door, but go quick. Waiting for food/drinks can take some time, however. The arcade rewards app is a really nice touch for rewarding local regulars with a tiered point system and daily opportunities to win something. read more

This location is called the "bakehouse" so it's good to get a pastry while here : ) I got the blueberry cardamom scone which is very tasty and not overly sweet. I also got drip coffee, which you can get free refills for if you're dining in. This place gets really busy on the weekends, but I'm here now on a Tuesday morning and there's people but it's not overly crowded. A nice place to get some work done with a tasty cup of coffee. read more
Arcade Coffee and I are best friends at this point. I am completely SAT for this establishment. Aside from a Starbucks coffee (which I still appreciate) you can definitely taste the difference between commercialized coffee to a well crafted coffee. The excellent quality is derived from their fresh coffee beans roasted weekly! This location is "The Bakehouse", a charming cafe where you can chat, enjoy coffee, and study. The music does play a bit loudly here, so if you find music to be bit distracting, there is a patio area right outside. Free wi-fi, so that's great. And the menu is displayed from a projector. How cute is that? Firstly, their Steak Sando is nice to pair with their iced draft latte. I've only gotten to try one flavor of the month (rose vanilla) and it's delightful with hints of floral and slightly sweet. Some other items worth mentioning: - iced lattes with house-made flavored syrups - kombucha! - salmon benny - pastries Side note: the baristas here have great style, wish I could cop their wardrobe somehow haha *** they also have a location in Downtown Riverside but has a more high-end restaurant feel. I would highly suggest to visit if you enjoy this spot. :) read more

I came to arcade today to get some studying done and the vibes are immaculate!! Selection: I really liked their menu, I went with a baked goodie along with a chai tea latte. I personally really like tarts and this apple oatmeal tart was truly surprising! It was so moist while still having a nice crunchy texture to it. Parking: This place gets busy! It's a hotspot for many people looking for a sweet escape to get some work done. read more

Thanks for the review. We are happy to hear you enjoyed your time…
I've been on my quest to find the best decaf latte so I decided to check this place out. There was a huge line out the door but I had a craving so I felt it was worth the wait. The line moved well enough so no issues there. There were a ton of people having lunch and spending quality time together so I can see people catching a vibe here. I can't speak for the food since I only had drinks. I got a decaf latte and a decaf dirty chai. The decaf latte was pretty awful and probably the worst one I've had on this journey. The dirty Chai was okay but the flavors just masked the sad decaf coffee. The cashier was friendly but it's super crowded so I don't know if I would be back to try lunch but decaf latte was a bust. read more

This is a wonderful coffee shop with unique bites. It's been a while since I've been and although the menu has underwent radical changes, the latte+syrup is still amazing. The trout & everything bagel(new*) is everything AND more. Shall I continue to lower my expectations every time of the service to the frontlines of such a lovely coffee oasis? Oh yeeeeah read more
