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!
One of the busiest cafes in the area. They have indoor and outdoor seating which is a plus. I came here on a weekend morning and it was packed. The service is efficient and drinks come out quick. I got their banana bread matcha which was delicious! Unfortunately the hot chai latte was not hot at all, it was lukewarm which was very disappointing. I also shared the breakfast sandwich and it was tasty. Also, their chocolate croissant warmed up is perfection. It's a smooth spot if you're looking for a cute cafe with options.
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
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.
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.
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.
Well well, where do I even begin. Imagine drinking something so delicious, so delightful, might I even say, perfect, that you simultaneously want to chug the drink and ration it out so it never ends. The iced mocha could wake me out of a coma. I've left work early and risked my job because I wanted to get one before they closed. Unhealthy obsession? Maybe. Not that good? Then you haven't had it. Feeling incredulous? Well my fellow Yelp reviewer and coffee connoisseur, believe it. Arcade is an absolute gem. I currently drive 45 minutes for an iced mocha because I have yet to try one as perfect as Arcade's. Don't like mocha? No need to fear. The iced vanilla is here. If you can't tell, I'm a pretty basic coffee person with my two favorites being a mocha and vanilla. Arcade has found a way to make basic drinks into crack flowing through your veins. They made me an addict, and I will gladly indulge. When they had their butterscotch syrup, I spent the equivalent of a month's rent in delicious lattes. I regret nothing. Oh and the steak burrito? FIRE.
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.

Quite expensive but really high-quality ingredients. The hash was all cooked to perfection with soft, oily whole garlic cloves. So good! My husband also got a side of sausage, which was sweet and lightly spicy. Coffee is also delicious! read more

Nice little brunch spot nestled in a shopping plaza. We got the brekky sammie, omelette, and smoked salmon benny. All were delicious tho the salmon was a little salty. Took a little while to get the food but it was a weekend so it was busy. All in all a good experience! read more

Located in a beautiful (but a little hard to find) location, The Bakehouse offers loads of delicious foods and drinks! We had the yuzu avocado toast, the latte with seasonal syrup, and the salmon benny. Everything was SO good!! I especially loved the touch of yuzu of my toast-- it was just the right amount and still allowed the avocado to sing for itself. Service itself was typical. The person who took our order was nice, and the person who delivered our food came with a smile. One thing to note about this place is that it is self serve. This means you may be expected to clean your own plates and cups, grab your own water and napkins, etc. We did have to clean someone else's mess because they had left their plates after finishing, but I don't blame them since there's no signage anywhere in the restaurant telling customers anything. Perhaps that's something the restaurant can fix by the time I come to dine again! :) read more

I love this spot as a nice study spot. It gets pretty busy pretty quickly though, so if you're looking for a place to sit you'll likely have to sit outside. There is plenty of seating though, especially around the whole plaza, so while seating is their biggest problem it's a very easy one to get around. I love trying new things every time I go, and they hit the mark every single time. The inside has an unfinished vibe which I can appreciate, but the place is very clean and modern. They have a rewards program which gives you little discounts basically every time you visit. It's going to join my growing list of coffee shop study spots read more

I've been to the downtown location and really liked it (minus the parking) so wanted to check out this other riverside location and it didn't disappoint! There is plenty of parking. It is a bit hidden and the Google maps didn't send me to the correct location but still within the shopping mall. I went around 10:30 and was able to find booth seating where I was able to do work. I ordered a gingerbread latte which was seasonal and their chocolate strawberry scone which I tried at the downtown location and loved! I saw many people order the sandwiches so I'll have to come back and try those. Overall recommend. Good vibes, great food and coffee! read more

I've been to the downtown arcade coffee location and I loved it there. I knew I wanted to check out the bakery since it offered more food! I got the draft coffee and unfortunately I didn't think it tasted like the draft at the downtown location hence the 4 stars. However, the food and pastries were excellent! The lemon curd donut was very delicious. It was tart and sweet. The shortbread cookie was also amazing! I was also able to try the tri tip breakfast biscuit and that was ok. The biscuit was delicious, flaky, and buttery. However, the tri tip could use some work. They gave generous portions for the price you paid tho. The location was hard to find and located in a big plaza with lots of stores. It can be confusing when you first walk in. It's across from a bookstore and the sign still says jammin bakery on the outside. read more
So, it's been awhile since I've been on this. There hasn't really been much to write about, but just had to throw one up for this biz. Firstly, Westin who took our orders and the baristas that pulled our shots took their time to dial everything in before serving us our 32 oz iced lattes! Just kidding, no disrespect to latte drinkers! We were served up some amazing espressos, enough for us to hit 3 rounds here! The French Omelette definitely on point, didn't think that Riverside would be a destination for espressos and French Omelette, but man oh man! Talk about a great experience! Arcade, y'all definitely got our attention and we will drive that 70 miles back here soon! read more

Wi-Fi password works for all locations. Bakery for all 3 Arcade Coffee Roasters. Canyon crest Bakehouse store seems to be really busy all the time and service is still good. Located near the water feature between Subway and Olive Oil store. Outside seating available and inside seating fills up quickly. Been to the Arcade coffee sites about twice and staff is very friendly and courteous. Cashier has always gone above and beyond when helping choose if you're indecisive. Wait times were usually quick and when our order was skipped over, the cashier figured it out before we mentioned it. Bonus customer service points for the great catch on that. read more

After a chiropractor visit next door, I stopped by for a quick lunch and drink. The online menu isn't up-to-date, so I'd suggest waiting to decide what to eat until you're there. I opted for the veggie sandwich, and it was delicious! I also tried a dirty chai, which was fantastic. My brother and sister in-law tried some other delicious meat sandwiches! The service was friendly, and the place was spotless, including the bathrooms. Overall, a great experience! read more

It's a define never again. I get that prices have increased, but I've traveled extensively to coffee roasteries and I've never paid 8 dollars for an oat mil late. Not in San Francisco, not in Portland, not in Chicago, but it Riverside--wow. And to top it off the quality of the late is sub par. So disappointed. read more

This is my spot for coffee in Riverside, chill vibes with good service and coffee. Their baked goods and food are super good compared to other coffee places I've tried as well. Their lattes are my favorite, especially with their concept of a monthly syrup that you can try to keep it interesting. Only reason why it's not a full 5 is because I feel the price is a bit expensive for the amount of drink you're getting. Still think this place is worth a try if you like coffee but definitely join their rewards program to ensure you get points for the amount you'll be spending. read more

As this small local chain expands it's interesting to see how they establish a personality of sorts at each new location. While the original location best serves the UCR community it wasn't really convenient for us to go to regularly. That said, the new downtown store is within walking distance but I was curious how they would continue the legacy of the previous occupant: Jammin Bread. Quite well as it turns out. My gal had to work on school stuff so she came here first and reported back that she really enjoyed the Chicken Curry Sandwich. Therefore, when she had another assignment to do I joined up and brought stuff to read. Looking ahead online I decided to try their Steak Sando, which features, like all of the sandwiches, Focaccia bread. She reordered the Chicken Curry and we both got beverages. Cold Brew and the green tea based Jade Cloud. The coffee seemed decent but the lack of anything but a lighter green tea made me wish I'd ordered something else that said, it wasn't bitter like many teas get if you steep it too long. The music was a little wonky but I'll take it over the shitty worship music they sometimes play at the other locations any day. The cool girl working the front brought out the sandwiches and after snapping quick pics I took a big bite. The focaccia was a tad dry on the top section, the oil having migrated south to the bottom half but was a good choice for the collective whole. The tri-tip was sliced just right, and I liked the melted cheese and carmalized onions. 3.5 out of 5 I'd say. She said that the Chicken Curry was a bit different than the first time so there's clearly some discrepancies regarding consistency. Hopefully that'll resolve, it's often attributable to different prep cooks so I'd like to see a set, consistent recipe for the future. They closed at 4pm so keep that in mind in case you need to study. Overall, pretty good, I'll come back sometime. read more
I decided to try out this place instead of the Starbucks I usually go in that plaza. It was during morning rush and the line was out the door but it was worth it. I had the latte and it was probably one of the best lattes I've had. Definitely will be returning. read more

This is my second review and this time for the hash. In retrospect I wish I would have ordered more sauce. Egg was cooked perfectly if you like over easy eggs. Onions had some crunch but aromatic and sweet. The potatoes were soft and crunchy. The sausage was cooked well done and similar to linguica if familiar for comparison. It took about 20 minutes to come out so be prepared to wait. I came early around opening time and it is way more of a relaxed quiet atmosphere before the rush of people arrive. Best place for breakfast and brunch. read more

My friend and I have been meaning to try this place out for a while now. Stepping in, we had high expectations and the ambiance was very cute. It wasn't busy at the time we went (around 1pm on a random Wednesday) and the cashier was very friendly. I went for their draft latte while my friend had their jade cloud green tea. Upon first sip, I was very disappointed. They described it as a "rlly good sweet cold coffee" and they weren't lying-- it tasted like I drank straight out of the syrup bottle. My friend's "jade cloud" green tea was pretty much just any ordinary green tea. It was really watered down too (as you can see from the picture) Overall, it wasn't worth it for the price we paid, but I'll give some brownie points for the aesthetics and nice workers! read more

This is one of my favorite places in Riverside right now. The service is amazing, the baristas are nice, the matcha lattes are incredible, and the food is to die for! This place absolutely takes the cake for best baked goods in Riverside. The scones are incredible and the donuts and muffins are incredibly flavorful and filling. Don't even get me started on the brunch here! The Boursin omelet MELTS in your mouth and the Eggs benedict is unlike any other Eggs Benedict I have ever had before. Come early on the weekends, because it does get really packed here! read more

My husband and I went it for our second visit today. We are really beginning to love this place. Our first visit we had breakfast and espresso and a latte. The breakfast was good. The homemade sausage with the biscuits were amazing! My husband said his espresso was bitter which was not good. My latte was good. Our second visit my husband got the house coffee and I had their pumpkin drink. Both were delicious! :) Super fast service and very friendly. Monday morning wasn't busy at all when we were there... nice and quiet ambiance. read more

I want to start by saying I love the Bakehouse and frequently visit this location due to its friendly staff and delicious drinks. That being said I was excited to come try all the new matcha's on the matcha menu, unfortunately they've replaced the hand whisked powder to a machine powered one (so unnecessary and redundant) and it's a noticeable difference. The matcha itself is grainy and separates immediately after the girls pour it out the pitcher, and the taste quite frankly is horrible. It's ridiculous to pay nearly $8 for flavored milk with grains floating around. Their lattes are phenomenal though. I want to reiterate that the girls working behind the bar so sweet and make this coffee shop what it is, I'm hoping this review reaches the right people and they bring back the hand whisked matcha. read more

Hey Julie! Thanks so much for visiting us and sharing your feedback…
Love the draft latte but everything else was below average. We decided to get brunch here on a weekend and tried the Spanish chorizo hash and steak sando. First of all, it took over 30 minutes for our food to come out. The hash wasn't much of a hash, it's country potatoes with really hard and salty sausage with an egg. The steak sando was underwhelming, bread was a bit dry as well. Would only recommend coming for the coffee, if this review was just based on food, it would've received 2-3 stars. read more
The draft latte is the best! A must order for me every time I indulge at this location. Seriously, puts Starbucks to the test when it comes to their drinks and treats. They are a cashless system here. Plenty of parking here. read more

3.5 stars Scrolled through yelp and found this place. The cafe is a cute little place. Ambiance is very nice, modern feels and a good amount of tables to sit. Most people come here to do there work as well. Great place for getting a quick bites and study. Service was alright, she wasn't rude but didn't feel welcomed. Food was alright, I have had better sandwiches. My tea has a nice scent to it but it was blend. read more

Been here multiple times now, yes the price is a bit of a premium, but I haven't had a bad experience each and every time I've gone here! My go-to's for this place is definitely the draft latte with oat milk (lactose intolerance ), the salmon Benny, the steak Sando, and now a surprising addition of the Brekky Sammie. The funny part was, when I ordered the Brekky, my brain was registering that I was ordering their BLT styled sandwich, so when the food arrived I was caught off guard and realized my brain fart. However, like Bob Ross, this ended up being a happy little accident because out of all the food items I've had from here, this gave me the most sincere, satisfying reaction that made me go "whooooaaaaaaa" I hope those of you who end up trying it get the same reaction, but totally get it if it doesn't because we all have different palettes read more

Interior- 10/10. Loved the dark green brick for the coffee bar with a white table top. Such great natural light, as the walls are window floor to ceiling as well as upper light from the windows. Very spacious in the ordering area, as well as seating area. Definitely a great location too. As there is outdoor seating with views of a little fountain river and great greenery. Drink- Iced Matcha Latte with Oat Milk ($6.50 + $1.00) 6.7/10. I think it tasted good, a little watery. Didn't taste the oat milk too much. Had that green-ness of matcha. Although, it tasted very watered down and not a very rich matcha. I downed it pretty quickly, and even then it was a little bland. The photo was taken about 10 minutes after, so the color looks a lot more watery. Kind of pricey, yet again. Especially for how it was tasted. Service- 5/10. Honestly pretty average. Was greater when I came in. Kind of an awkward interaction with the cashier. Didn't really say thanks for anything just kinda dipped after I ordered. Not that I expect a fancy goodbye or anything, it was just a kind of walk away thing. Walked to the bar to chat with the baristas and friends. Baristas behind the bar were chatting a lot. Fair, it's a lowkey coffee shop. Guy making my drink was kind. But was in conversation a lot so took "awhile" to get my drink (It wasn't too long because how long could making a drink really take). But in my opinion, seemed like my drink was a hassle to their conversation ToT so I kind of felt awkward haha... definitely not a super welcoming environment for me as a person coming for the first time. If I was a regular, I'd be more chill because that's the vibe. The menu and aesthetics of the store were great, would come back again for that. Overall- 3.4/5 read more
