    It's been a minute since I stopped in The Press Espresso! I had to go my usual iced BSC latte and it was delicious. We hung out in the coffee shop for a little and it's a great place to work or study. One of these days, I'm going to pick up their BSC syrup.

    Whole bean coffee

    Awesome welcome! Staff were all very friendly, helpful, service woth a smile. Really cute coffee shop with inside or covered patio seating. Inside was refreshing to cool down from the 100° heat. Real coffee and classic menu for the coffee lover. Teas lattes or non caffeinated options. Baked goods were displayed and hard to resist. Whole bean Coffee bags available for purchase. Self serve water station next to the pick up counter. Restroom for customers. Parking in the large lot with shared stores a few short steps away.

    5+ stars! I love this place -- such an amazing vibe. Charming both inside and out, with an incredible selection of baked goods and beans to take home. Most importantly, the espresso is delicious and the service couldn't be better. Easily one of my all-time favorite spots for espresso. Highly recommend!

    Matcha latte and tiramisu latte
    Cryetti C.

    Drink: 5 Service: 5 Ambiance: 5 Such a nice, quaint coffee shop nestled in the Vail Ranch area! I ordered the Matcha Latte and the Tiramisu Latte -- both beautifully presented with latte art and perfectly balanced in flavor. Tasty but not overly sweet -- just right. The service was excellent; the young gentleman behind the counter was incredibly friendly and kind. The ambiance is warm, inviting, and cozy -- the kind of spot where you could easily relax or catch up with a friend. I'm so glad to have a delicious local coffee shop close by, and I'll definitely be returning!

    A friend and I stopped in this coffee roaster before heading to a soccer tournament nearby. I ordered the iced shorty with whole milk and my friend had the hot mocha latte. I also ordered a blue berry scone The iced shorty was a first for me, and I liked the concept. It's an iced espresso with less water to give it a stronger and more robust coffee bean flavor. It was perfect for what I was looking for. My friend said his mocha was excellent. The scone was okay. The burned when they warmed it up. I was surprised they did not offer me a new one. It tasted okay, but the texture of the scone was off given they over heated it. The service was good, but they needed to keep one person at the register and the other two focused making beverages and serving baked goods. Here, one takes an order, prepares the item, then when the other person is done making their item, they go to the register and take an order, and the cycle continues. The problem was there's a lag when ordering, especially when all three employees are working on an order. The place had seating inside and outside.

    SOUR SPOILED COCONUT MILK

    In all honesty the absolute worst coffee we've ever tasted... My husband ordered a coconut thai espresso and it tasted SOUR and was lumpy- spoiled! On top of that the staff did not acknowledge us upon arrival and ignored us until they were done chatting away. As someone who worked in hospitality and food and bev industry for several years it was extremely rude and unprofessional. Overall It was disgusting and disappointing experience. Waste of our time and money

    Vanilla Matcha Latte

    Bye Starbucks, Hello Press Espresso! I've been on the hunt for a good coffee shop in Temecula and The Press Espresso totally won me over. It's easily my favorite spot now, and I keep coming back. They have a few locations and they're all super chill with a cool rustic vibe. I love all the plants and succulents because it just feels cozy. Service is always quick and friendly. They have some fun specialty drinks too. The tiramisu latte is popular but my go-to is the iced vanilla matcha. So good!

    Tiramisu Latte and Raspberry heart tart.
    Renee G.

    Clearly I am the press espresso's best customer. I love this location in the historic Vail Ranch. It's cute and has great seating inside and out. I had my usual Tiramisu Latte with Oatmilk and today got a special heart shaped treat. Service was swift and it was busy inside. Quality is always on point.

    I have been several times at various The Press and this one is my favorite. It has seats inside and at the patio, pretty spacious cozy at the same time. Located in a very pretty historical plaza, it is a great place to stop when I am in Temecula.

    This place is my go to coffee a spot when I'm at Vail Headquarters. It has a calm vibe. I came on a busy Saturday while there's a Harvest Festival going on outside. People were popping in and out. Gentleman who rung me up was super calm. He was helpful in his suggestion for a sugar free option. On my way out, he even said goodbye Meghan! Such great customer care!

    Blueberry Palmer Lemonade

    Adorable coffee shop at the Vail Headquarters. We were visiting Temecula and looking for a new coffee shop and picked Press. Seems like they have a lot of locations, but so happy we randomly picked this one at Vail HQ. After grabbing our drinks, we walked around and took in a bit of old Temecula cowboy history. Unexpected and quite enjoyable! AND the coffee was great, too. We noticed their new espresso machines were down, but they were still able to make their Bananas Foster Latte using cold brew. We also tried the Blueberry Palmer. Both were delicious and were not overly sweet. You could taste the home made syrups. We'll definitely seek them out next time we're in Temecula.

    Outside entry
    Heather H.

    Received a gift card and was in the area so I stopped in for a nice morning pick me up. This coffee house is located in the Vail Hq plaza. Lots of different options for coffee and drinks as well as some food items. Inside was clean and there were open tables both inside and outside. Staff was friendly and my order was made fairly quick. The passion fruit tart was bursting with flavor and my vanilla latte was perfection, I wasn't crazy about the glass cup with no handle but it didn't stop me from enjoying my hot bean juice. Nice spot, would come back again.

    Local favorite for espresso coffee and locally baked goods. Purchased a slice of cheesecake to enjoy with a whisky while watching "My Cousin Vinny" Establishment has a great vibe and the customer service is amazing.

    Ask the Community - The Press Espresso

    Does the press sell their own bagged whole bean or grinded coffee?

    Yes, both options are available :)

    Are your pour overs done with a machine (technically a drip at that point) or by hand?

    Hi! For pour overs at the temecula pkwy location we use Seraphim and for the other 3 locations we make pour overs by hand.

It is only open from 6:30AM to 12PM Monday through Friday so it's hard to get to especially if you don't work around the area. I just happened to be around the area and was able to try it out. I got a hot hazelnut latte on a cold foggy morning and it was delicious and a good balance of syrup and espresso. I usually don't care for anything extra in my latte but they definitely have a good list of seasonal flavors and their main flavors. I like how you can customize it to make your own flavors as well. I just opted for something simple and it came out good. The area around is the industrial part and seems like it would be a good place to get a pick me up if you're getting your car serviced or something. I like that they had seating even though that morning was a cold morning. I'd imagine it to be a lovely spot to have coffee and chat with a friend on a nice sunny morning. I love the coffee cart and the person who served me was very nice. I would definitely recommend and try this out again if I had the chance. They only have limited hours though, so planning to come through can be challenging if you're not a morning person or have work out of the way.

I am glad to stumble upon this gem of a family owned shop. Been coming here since December as I really loved all the different roasts that I have tried.

I felt bad as they were already closed for the day but Jason and Robyn didn't hesitate to unlock the doors and allow me to buy a bag of my favorite beans "Chiapas" even when the cash register is already turned off. As always the beans were freshly roasted. The shop features ample seating if you elect to dine in.

Noticed that there was significant room in my cup when it finally arrived and you can't tell me it's the cold foam "melting", the baristas intentionally failed to fill my cup, apparently because I ordered no ice. As you can see, I didn't drink out of it prior to the picture else there would be foam on the side and lid. Aside from my cup being short; my matcha didn't taste like it had brown sugar in it either All I can say, is that we scratched this off our list of local coffee shops to try and won't be returning.

The owner/manager responded to my review which I appreciated and he said that things were in the works. I felt heard and so I was prepared to change my review if that indeed happened. Well, I'm coming back a year later because I wanted to give it some time and Ive now moved here so I'm a local but unfortunately no changes have happened. They have definitely updated their menu drinks to new seasonal items so I guess this feedback felt between the cracks and instead decided to just make new drink. Drinks themselves are way sweet and even even when asking if I can get it half sweet, everything else just overpowers the coffee that I'm trying to taste - it must be all that milk and sugar with little espresso. This location does have nicer staff as the one in downtown/old town Murietta were rude and with attitudes.

It felt like the cup was filled with ice and then put the coffee in. Don't get me wrong, the drink was good and the coffee was strong. The other drink was the Creme Brulee Latte. If you like the sugar un-bruleed, this is the drink for you. I saw the top was torched for a few seconds, but the drink was still in the tiny sugar crystals. The coffee part is also nice and strong, though the drink is not as sweet as it sounds. Overall, lack-luster and expensive for the $7.60 - Large.
