    The coffee and food was delicious! The service was quick and easy! The staff were friendly and polite! The ambiance of this place was great. It's clean, comfortable and spacious!

    Dine-in coffee served in a to-go cup
    Jennifer E.

    Coffee is good. Location and atmosphere is good. But I ordered a specialty latte to drink - to stay in - and was served coffee in a to-go cup. When I asked for a ceramic/glass cup since I was drinking my coffee in the shop, I was told no, they're only serving coffee in paper cups even tho they have an entire wall of glass cups. Kinda lame.

    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
    Leilani M.

    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.

    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!

    Coffee bean selection

    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!

    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.

    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.

    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

    Carmen V.

    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
    Talar P.

    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.

    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.

    I cannot say enough amazing things about Batter Up Bakery…read more I'm a wedding planner with over a decade of experience, and I have truly seen it all... but this was a first. Due to a major mistake on the venue's end, our couple's wedding cake was served to a different event the day before the wedding. Yes... the entire cake was gone. We were left without a cake for the bride and groom to cut on their wedding day, and with very little time to fix it. Enter Batter Up Bakery... and they absolutely saved the day. From the very first interaction, Samantha at the front counter was incredibly kind, responsive, and helpful. Selena, the decorator, did an unbelievable job recreating the cake exactly as originally designed. And Jim, the owner who handled delivery, was professional, communicative, and ensured everything arrived perfectly. They stepped in quickly and created a replacement cake that looked identical to what the couple originally ordered. Not only was it visually perfect, but it was also delicious. The entire process was seamless and handled with such care. The most incredible part? The bride had no idea anything had gone wrong until after the wedding. Everything felt flawless, and that is exactly what you hope for as a planner. In all my years in the industry, I have never experienced customer service like this. Batter Up turned what could have been a disaster into a perfect moment. I will be recommending them to every single one of my future couples. Truly phenomenal service, talent, and professionalism.

We arrived around 11:15 am on a Saturday and there was a long line to order. The ordering area is pretty small, so with the line and servers moving between the kitchen and outdoor seating, it did feel a little crowded. I still really liked the atmosphere inside though. We ordered around 11:25 and were told the food would take about 20 to 25 minutes, which honestly wasn't bad considering how busy it was. There's some bar seating and a few tables inside, but everything looked pretty full, so we opted for takeout. We ordered the Classic Breakfast Sandwich with breakfast sausage and the Monterey Breakfast Sandwich. Both were really good, and the flavors blended together well. The sandwiches are definitely packed and on the richer side with all the cheese and sauces, which was a little heavy for my personal preference. The portions are generous enough that I honestly think the two of us could have shared one sandwich and been satisfied. We also tried the Earl Grey Latte with matcha instead of espresso. I really liked the earl grey and matcha combination, but the matcha itself leaned pretty powdery, which was hard to enjoy fully. It's one of the better matcha lattes I've had in Temecula, but I've found the matcha quality in the area to be pretty underwhelming overall. I'd be more interested in trying their coffee next time. Overall, I enjoyed Little Goat Kitchen & Bakeshop and can definitely see myself coming back to try more of the food. The sandwiches were the highlight for me, and I'm curious to explore more of the menu.

We stopped here on the way home from Pechanga while charging our Tesla and since it was in the same plaza, we figured we'd check it out. I assumed it was more of a franchise bakery than a standalone artisan spot, so I came in with pretty low expectations. I was just planning to grab a cinnamon roll, a loaf of their Cinnamon Burst Bread and a quick sandwich for the drive home. To my surprise, their house-made sandwiches are served on freshly baked bread, made with fresh ingredients, and cost under $10 (Panera could never!!!). Their baked goods were also reasonably priced with generous portions. We picked up the Cinnamon Burst Bread, a cinnamon roll, a honey bran muffin (which completely stole the show for me; it was incredibly moist and I'd come back just for that) and an almond poppy seed scone. The service here was just as impressive. Everyone was so friendly and personable and you could tell they genuinely enjoyed being there. I also loved their "Giving Rack," where anyone in need can take free baked goods. It's such a thoughtful idea and says a lot about the kind of business they are. This is easily one of my favorite bakery finds and it'll definitely be a regular stop whenever I'm back in the area.

If we hadn't requested to save the top, we wouldn't have had any to bring home. The extra desserts were just as incredible. The chocolate-covered strawberries were a huge hit for both their flavor and adorable design, and the cheesecake bites disappeared almost instantly. Everything was presented beautifully and it all went fast, which is always a good sign. The tasting process was also a highlight. They were kind and welcoming, and since we went in with a good idea of what we wanted (after reading their info ahead of time), it made the experience easy and enjoyable instead of overwhelming. One tip: book your tasting appointment as early as possible, because those slots fill up quickly. A couple of helpful notes for future couples: a cake stand isn't included, so be sure to add that to your list. And if you're working with them through an all-inclusive venue, you'll need to pay a little extra for the premium flavors - but trust us, they're worth every penny. We couldn't recommend Gruttadauria's more. Their cakes and desserts were an unforgettable part of our wedding, and our guests are still talking about them.
