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.
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.
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!
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.
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.
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!
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!
Cute interior/ exterior with lots of available seating outside. Coffee was delicious I got the banana foster latte 10/10 it was so good no artificial banana taste and it was sweet. :) My boyfriend got the lavender honey latte which he liked except for the dried lavender bits they put on top. The coffee cake was sooooo good! The scone was good too but our fave was the coffee cake. Definitely a great spot to grab your coffee and pastries :)
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.
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
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!
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.
I haven't been back in Temecula, but I was excited to find an artisan coffee shop. The Press is just that in a cool 1900's building. In can be a little hard to find as it is tucked in a modern shopping future. It is right next to Kohls as Apple Maps had me a little lost. The location in interior is super cool. If I still lived in Temecula this would be my coffee shop. Great speciality drinks and cool location to enjoy coffee at. I had the Tiramisu coffee which was good, the look of it was outstanding. Overall quality was pretty good. I would like to try some of there other speciality drinks next time. My wife enjoyed the salted Carmel mocha latte. Awesome coffee shop of your looking for something out of the ordinary. read more

Love this location! Came by on a drizzling weekend Service is as expected. The staff did seem a little worn, perhaps due to the rain. The space here is much larger than the old town location, and has a nice little patio (if you have a pup). The usual tiramisu latte was good, latte art is also on point. Came with a still-fresh lady finger powdered with cocoa. read more

Our friends told us about the old town location and we were going to visit there until we realized that this location was right down the street from us. So glad that we found this location as parking was such a breeze compared to dealing with parking in old town. My wife and I both love old fashions and bourbon in general. So when we heard that they had an old fashioned flavored coffee we knew that we had to try it. All I can say is Wow! Fantastic! The nitro cold brew with old fashioned flavoring reminded me of drinking a coffee stout for breakfast. Amazing! We both loved it and highly recommend trying it. My only complaint was when we were ordering there wasn't a clear menu for food selection. After we ordered our pastries we saw some amazing looking avocado toast being prepared that we would have ordered had we known about it. Maybe next time! read more

This is such a cute coffee place! They had music playing, lots of space, even on a busy Sunday, and the Matcha is DELICIOUS! I am not a matcha person at all and I loved it. My friend also loved his coffee. read more

I am always asking for the drink to be in a mug instead of a glass cup. It just doesn't make sense since there are no sleeves for these hot cups. The last couple times they just poured it after making it pretty into a mug in an annoyed way so I stopped asking after the fact. I don't like coming to any location that's not the old town location. I had to come here bc of other people. The pastry case had flies in it with the doors closed, I didn't notice until after I was leaving. I had ordered a Twinkie and it looked like it had a bite/chunk taken out of it... I had to request another.... They tasted old and stale, maybe would have been better warmed up. The second croissant thing was literally burnt... why serve that. The sugar station was pretty gross... there's 4 employees... literally trying to figure out what to do with themselves.... The service here is so so... how bout if you're gonna call peoples names for their order, don't whisper and be louder than the music you're playing? The staff seem to not really care when people were waiting to order... it wasn't busy. There was 2 people already drinking coffee and2 people in line.... meanwhile there is about 4 of them just hanging out laughing it up. I hate to complain like this but man I seriously will not return to this location even if you paid me. read more

Best London fog I've had thus far. And the area this Press location is at is so cool if you're into the rustic vibe! We got the London fog and the tiramisu latte. I can't speak on the tiramisu latte because I'm not a coffee drinker but I will say the presentation of the Tiramisu latte was great... same with the Fog. You can see the coffee beans being roasted... for not being a coffee lover, I appreciated this. The interior has a comfy, homey feel. Right next door is the Cookhouse which is a small food hall but I loved the aesthetic of it ... the entire area of the Vail HQ is a vibe. read more

5/5 would recommend. This place has to be one of, if not my favorite coffee shop. The coffee is superb with an excellent and extensive selection of specialty lattes. I came in twice in one day and both times I was very satisfied with the service and my drink. Both of the baristas were kind and very patient. I got a brown sugar latte and a tiramisu latte both of which I highly recommend. read more

I have been to this location many many times and always had a good experience... sometimes a wait but never as long as today, I'm giving a 3 because they usually take a bit longer but the service today was so bad :( there were several workers and only 1 guy doing all the work. We waited 30+ mins for a bagel sandwich (they did say it would be a bit longer estimated 10 mins, so I did expect a wait) but I think they forgot it and when we came back in line after waiting and watching many orders go they made it. Don't order the bagel sandwich, comes out with dried out turkey. Workers weren't friendly, except the 1 guy taking and doing all the orders. Another worker (presumably off duty) came in with a Pressed Espresso shirt on, got a croissant, walked around eating and chewing it, and talking to the girls in the back. read more

We love this place! The employees are sweet and spicy which keeps it fun haha. Can't count how many times I've asked for my coffee "for here" and drinks come out in plastic. Kinda annoying, but I gave up, idc enough I guess. The seating areas and tables can be kinda nasty sometimes. The couch often has crap all over it and tables are rarely wiped down. 10/10 would come again, but I would appreciate cleanliness improvements :) read more

I'm happy that the owners have another location in Temecula!!! They must be doing something right so I don't understand the other reviews. This place is top notch and I'm not even a coffee drinker. They have some great specialty tea drinks which I love!!! Also they have some amazing pop tarts and donuts which I think is from E.A.T but I'm not sure about that. This a must try when you're in the area! read more

This little cafe becomes my favorite in town. All syrups are made in house and tastes good. They also have seasonal menu that changes periodically. Rose vanilla latte (5/5): This is absolutely the best latte! Their vanilla syrup is phenomenal: it's rich and not too sweet. The rose paired well with the coffee and it also looks cute! Flower & bee latte (4/5): Their new item with jasmine, bee pollen, honey, and cocoa. It's okay but the sourness is a little bit strange in the whole flavor profile. Bakeries (2/5): Chocolate croissant is okay: the crust was crispy and well-baked, but the chocolate filling is not good. Also tried macaron and scone -- both too sweet and lack of flavors. Their pour over with Panama Elida beans also looks good. But I'm sensitive to caffeine and the pour over doesn't have decaf version. read more

This was such a cute little coffee shop to stop by when I was walking around downtown Temecula. As we were searching for a brunch location I saw people walking around with pretty gold foil cups and had my eyes open for coffee shops with the pretty logo. The ambiance was nice, the service was quick and easy and the barista had her mask on the whole time. The coffee was a bit pricey but I thought it was worth it and really loved the cookie on top of my seasonal pumpkin latte! I would definitely get a coffee here again if I ever visit Temecula again! read more

One of the best vibe coffee bar, that I've been to in awhile. I love the ambiance inside and outside. Extremely roomy, inviting coffee bar. Positively family friendly. You will find gf, vegan and regular pastries to compliment your coffee and/or tea. The vegan chocolate & chai donuts plus avocado toast are delightful. There are so many delicious treats/ food items to try. The only downside was the customer service/cashier was a little slow, the cashier was the barista as well. Plus the quality of coffee was not as anticipated. We ordered the vanilla latte and iced almond joy. They were ok, lacked flavor. Will return again in the near future read more

what a lovely spot in an unassuming area of the shopping center. There was a line on a saturday morning and it makes sense why. i ordered the brown sugar and carmel latte which tasted like black molasses. it was tasty and the gal taking our order was super sweet. there was lots of seating and the majority was occupied by folks with laptops and friends catching up. worht a visit when you are in the area. read more

Can't believe I haven't reviewed this place! We came here twice a few months ago. Originally we drove here thinking that the old coffee shop was still here, but apparently Press Espresso took over the spot not too long ago. My girlfriend and I both ordered the honey lavender latte the first time we visited. It was so amazing! There is just enough lavender syrup but nothing that is overpowering or too "herbal-tasting" if that makes sense. It had just the right amount of lavender, honey, and a splash of Milkadamia which truly brought this drink together! Second time around I ordered the same thing and my girlfriend ordered the nitro old fashioned cold brew- she said that one was alright. I'd recommend this place not only because of the drinks but also because of the friendly staff and the spacious area outside where you can safely enjoy your drinks. read more
