Grabbed a coffee here and it was delicious. I got a speciality latte -- I believe it was the banana foster since I was craving something sweeter and it was very delicious. I got my daughter a cookie which she loved and we hung out for a bit before leaving. The space is beautiful, I loved their art and I noticed the cute items they had for sale. It was a very relax and calm environment, and the staff were quick to take our order and have it ready.
I was having a rough birthday morning as I had gone to 2 other places searching for a tart. Came here as a last ditch effort and not only was the barista very kind, but her vibes just reset my morning and they had a tart! I was so excited. Located by Trader Joes. Parking was open, but this lot is notorious for tight parking. There wasnt anyone inside so my drink was made quickly. Inside has plenty of seating and was clean.
I loved my experience here. Cute coffee shop ambiance with lots of small tables, making it perfect for a coffee date with a friend or getting some work done. I tried the cocoa puff cold brew (seasonal drink) and it was surprisingly good. Cold brew was strong but not too sweet and paired perfectly with the sweet cold foam and cocoa puffs. Service was friendly and drinks came out within minutes. Only slight negative is that parking is sometimes hard to find since it is in the same parking lot as trader joe's. Would definitely come back again!
Place was clean and modern, real chill place to hangout. A few people sitting around working. There are tables and bench seats to sit at. Workers seemed quiet and working probably because it looks like one went home sick. Drinks were good hoping it would've been hotter.
This Press Espresso by Winchester near Trader Joe's got a revamp! I love stopping by here after doing my groceries to get my matcha fix! It's my go-to coffee spot in Temecula area! I love how they redecorated this place and added some wall art and hanging plants. The place is super cute and cozy! Service was fast, and they served up my drink right away!
This location is my secret sneak away when I visit the nearby Trader Joe's. It's busy but it's all mine...lol. Great seating and even better service and treats. Newly upgraded seating is comfortable. There are also a few outdoor tables only downside is they are looking at the parking lot. They always have something that tickles my fancy. Today's treat was a triple Tiramisu Oatmilk Latte and a vegan and gluten free donut. The VGF options are slim but when they have them they are fire. They roast their beans on house in their Murrieta and Vail Ranch locations and they are excellent and don't have that burnt undertones of other box bux coffee shops(IYKYK).
It was a solid spot! I love the seat variety they had! I could see myself doing some work here because there was a good amount of outlets and lots of plants. The baristas were really friendly. I ordered the tiramisu latte and cold brew. The tiramisu latte was a little watery but still had decent flavor. The cold brew was really strong and much needed for a shopping day. Im looking forward to trying their specials next time!
The Press Espresso is everything a small coffee shop should aim to have; unique coffee lattes, warm customer service, and chill atmosphere. I stopped by to get some work done today, and I was immediately greeted by a worker. I tried her favorite Flower and the Bee iced latte and absolutely loved it 6/5! I've never had this combination before but the aromatic and fragrant jasmine syrup surprisingly blends well with the natural sweetness of honey and espresso. I have to say that their coffee is delicious, and a notch above other competitors. My new favorite small coffee shop in Murrieta. I hope to frequent this place every week!
It's my second time visiting this coffee shop this weekend. While checking in at a nearby hotel, another guest noticed my cup and asked how I liked it. I told her it was so-so and that I'd probably stick to regular flavored lattes next time instead of the specialty ones. She didn't seem thrilled with her experience either. I decided to give it another shot and ordered a vanilla latte. Unfortunately, it really lacked flavor. It tasted mostly like oat milk, with barely any espresso coming through. It made me wonder if the grind size is too coarse and causing under-extraction, or if only one shot is being used in a large drink? Either way, the espresso flavor just wasn't there. It may help if the baristas are more mindful about adjusting grind size, shot volume, and overall balance to ensure the espresso actually comes through in larger drinks. I'd like to see more balance in the drinks so customers will genuinely like them.
I love the press espresso. And even more so now that I found this other location. This location has lots of seating and because it isn't in the downtown area its less crowded and you can find plenty of parking. The employees are all really nice and welcoming. Iove the bee latte.
This place was super cute and my coffee was soooo good. The baristas were also super friendly. I ordered the cherry cold brew (idk the exact name) and my mom got an iced tea, as well as the lox toast (idk exact name) and the tomato feta pastry. The toast was great and the pastry was a little salty but i know feta can be like that. One thing that happend tho was I order their sun-dried tomato quiche because that's what they had on the menu, when I got it they told me they only had broccoli cheddar which wasn't on their menu and they didn't tell me before hand Besdies that everything was great because they accommodated to the issue and I still enjoyed my stay. I would deff recommend and had a good experience
First time here, the place is very cute and customer service was great! 2 stars because my latte tasted like milk, i understand the milk to espresso ratio but it shouldn't taste like milk. The barista kindly re made my drink (which i appreciate) but unfortunately it tasted exactly the same. If you want a yummy strong latte i dont recommend this place :(
This place is a vibe! Super tasty coffee and friendly workers. The iced tiramisu latte was to die for. I'm not from the area, but I love finding hidden gems like this one. They have a menu with various hot and iced coffee drinks, as well as non caffeinated items. They also have desserts and a separate drink fridge too! Lots of seating available. I also adored the corner with candles and other cute items to buy. I wish there was a location in San Diego, but if you're in the Temecula area, you should definitely check this place out.

I usually visit The Press Espresso in Old Town Murrieta, but was in the area and decided to check this location out. Very cute interior and a good amount of seating. Service was great as was my Banana Fosters Latte. I would definitely be back to this location! read more

Best coffee spot in Temecula. End of story. I don't even want to try anything else nearby . One main reason: ALL locations are consistent. More consistent than Starbucks (ha!). But seriously though, this place gets busy and it never disappoints. Vanilla and honey lattes are safe. Coffee cake latte is my favorite! I still need to try the others but can't stay away from coffee cake. I can see how the drinks like the BSC can be sweet to some but definitely tell the barista your likes and dislikes and they will cater to you. They have nice kids drinks, like the milk steamer which is fun. Any time I'm in the area I try to stop by, so if you're thinking about it don't hesitate! read more

The coffee was good but the food wasn't that great. I ordered the turkey panini and it took them 25 minutes to make it, then it only had one slice of turkey in it :( It was more like a pesto grilled cheese. Also the almond honey danish had way too much honey. Maybe just come for the coffee. read more

This is a 3.5, because this shop has huge potential for higher ratings, if they listen to the lower ratings on this site I stopped into today, while waiting for my Earth Bistro pick up order. LOCATION: The interior is amazing. Large colorful mural on the wall, delicious treats in the display case, and lots of seating along the wall or at the coffee bar. I strike up a conversation with the cashier/server/barista, who smiles genuinely throughout our conversation about their multiple locations. I saw all of the coffee house favorites running the gamut of Paleo, Vegan, and everyone else, in flavors you recognize. NOW THE BAD NEWS STRAWBERRY CHAMOMILE CUPCAKE - You can't get more Springtime than that. I mean, it had tiny, chamomile flowers accompanied by a swirl of buttercream, and what appeared to be strawberry seeds. Looking at it made you think of heaven in paper wrapper. Unfortunately, that's where the magic sort of fades. - Beyond the visible, the chamomile served no real purpose. - The tiny, tiny chunks of strawberry were slightly visible, flavorless - The cake bordered on being a moist muffin, did not contain much flavor - The buttercream was a little too sweet and did nothing to unify flavors HONEY LAVENDER LATTE - Again, you can't get more Springtime than Honey and Lavender. I had images of lightly roasted coffee playing a rhapsody composed of honey and lavender notes floating upwards into a stratosphere of flavors unparalleled. Okay, here's what I got instead: - Unsweetened, dark roast/expresso that over powered everything. - 2% milk was beaten to a pulp, so no creamy, dreamy coffee swirl here. - You could not smell or taste lavender or honey. @ $5/per item - you should have rocked my taste buds and left me standing outside until morning waiting for you to open. Execution, Execution, Execution is the key! I can't eat ambiance, but I can eat gourmet pastries and drinks that are your best work. I did not get that today, but I'll be back to give you a shot at delivering on your vision - I know you can. read more

This place is so freaking adorable!!! Music is very calming, the staff is so helpful and kind and it's very clean. I'm surprised they didn't have a line down the street! You have to check out this spot. I got a vanilla latter - sugar free with oat milk. Oh my dairy free dream!!! Wow. read more

I finally decided to stop by The Press Espresso, a local coffee joint I've passed by many times but never walked into. It's tucked in the Trader Joe's parking lot, so getting in and out can be a bit of a hassle when it's busy. I ordered a classic iced vanilla latte, and my wife opted for an iced London fog. Unfortunately, we were both underwhelmed--my coffee tasted more like milk with just a hint of coffee. The shop itself has a nice vibe, and their pastries looked delicious, but the coffee didn't hit the mark for us. read more

Wow. Honestly I'm SO impressed.. where do I even start... Okay we'll start with the vibe and decor. First of all, this coffee shop was so detailed. Every single thing that could have been customized or decorated, was. The tile against the back wall, the crown molded side panels that encompassed the bar, the colorful paintings, the way the actual coffee bar was set up. Bro I even went to the bathroom and it was the same lol. I love design so I was thoroughly impressed as you can tell. The vibe was soft and elegant. The girls working were very kind and asked a few questions before making my drink to ensure it was correct. So 11/10 stars for vibe and atmosphere. I ordered an iced matcha with oat milk and rose extract with no sweetener. How effing beautiful. The taste was exquisite. I can tell the matcha was quality. It had a bold earthy taste. And the rose extract paired wonderfully. Even the cup was beautiful with their gold stamped logo on the side. I didn't order any food, but I would have gotten the avo toast and did see one come out and it looked bomb! Honestly I'm just so impressed with it all I could go on longer but you've probably already stopped reading at this point. Beautiful execution, will definitely be back. read more

Oh. My. The Rose Vanilla Latte. Not super sweet and perfect proportions of coffee, milk, and flavoring. Okay - the AVOCADO TOAST was unworldly! And the Quiche was so rich with flavor (we might have drooled a little!!). Cashier, and Barista were friendly and helpful - and know how to pull a shot! Super cool atmosphere - but I do have to say that the chairs were a bit challenging for the 77, 67, and 58 year olds!! Other than that - bathroom was clean and quaint. We have family in the area so we will definitely be back! Thanks for a great experience!! read more

Perfect ending to a quick wine tasting trip! We walked in and it was steady, but not busy. The young lady at the register was super friendly and helpful with recommendations. This was our first time in so it took us a little to decide what i wanted, but so glad that I got to try the bananas foster latte and the butterscotch cold brew. Both drinks tasted like their names. Neither was overly sweet, which can really make or break a drink. The bananas foster even had little pieces of dessert dropped in so with every sip, there was a little dessert bite. The cookie butter bar only added to the experience. We requested it warm and it was perfect! Wish we lived closer. read more

The Press Espresso's 4th location is finally open!! Best part about it: it's near my gym, haha!! Find it next to Nékter in the Trader Joe's shopping center. Just like the other 3 locations, this one has all the same goodies and cute merch. The decor is vibrant, colorful and playful at the same time. I love the huge concrete benches INSIDE the store. Very unique and it sets them apart from the other stores. Alex took my order with a big smile and friendly personality. She was patient with me as I decided on what I wanted. Our drinks were delish and perfect for a hot day in the Inland Empire. They have a great selection of lattes, teas, and pastries. In addition to the same menu items at the other 3 stores, they have a select few items that you can only get here. My Iced Nutella Latte was great and the perfect amount of sweetness. They charge a small fee for milk if you want oat, soy, etc. I love this coffee shop! Definitely come out if you wanna give that other coffee shop a break. They have yummy baked goods and even macarOns! I'll have to try those soon! They do have vegan desserts as well. Show them some love and stop on by!! I might see ya there! =) read more

I had The Press Espresso twice while visiting Temecula for the long weekend. I'd first gone to the branch in Old Town and I returned to the one on Winchester Road on my last day in town. Besides ordering one of its specialty lattes (the rose-vanilla latte), I also ordered some food items, including a brisket wrap and banana-coconut doughnut. The rose-vanilla latte was delicious: I could taste the rose flavor, and the drink itself wasn't overly-sweet, which I appreciated. The brisket wrap was warm and hefty, although it could have used a bit of a presentation facelift. I would say the banana-coconut doughnut was my least-favorite item, though, as it was cloyingly sweet and there wasn't a ton of banana nor coconut flavor to it. Compared to Old Town branch, Winchester's location isn't as picturesque, especially as the outdoor seating offers a view of a generic strip mall. The interior is kind of cute with modern seating and a bright, pink-themed wall. It does take some time for the baristas to serve your order, as they take the time to prepare each and every one with care, so definitely be patient! It's worth a go over here, especially if the Old Town branch gets too busy in the day. read more

Im so happy I gave this place another shot. Now we're regulars. Service is nice, takes a bit but when u get ur order u understand why, DELISH!! My go to order their avocado toast and iced honey lavender latte three-quarter sweet. They put so much detail into everything. From the fresh lavender pieces in the latte to the tiramisu with the lady finger cookie. The pickle onion is the chefs kiss. All the desert is fresh the cakes are beautiful, tried the honey lavender cheesecake... Im getting my own slice and not sharing with myHusband next time. Take it from this picky girl and try it all. Peaceful place to sit in as well. read more

This is the second location I have been to and every time we swing by to get a pick me up the staff has always been friendly and accommodating. The staff mentioned it was the first day the peppermint was available so we automatically wanted to try a seasonal drink. The Press Espresso is definitely a place to stop by for a hot or cold espresso drink! Give it a shot, you won't be disappointed. read more

When I say I love coffee I mean the press espressos.. I have been going to press espresso since they had their first shop in old town. Never stopped going to the Temecula location or Marietta which I absolutely loved. I even had gone to the 79 location and it was wonderful. This time I came here and I realize they had a new location so I figured give it a try, it wasn't as great as usual and my drink was so expensive for some reason and it was a regular size probably like really small size I don't understand how. It also isn't as great as usual. Hopefully they'll improve in the near future read more

This shop serves great (read Strong) coffees with a hand crafted touch. They were quick and had a lot of options, while still feeling specialized and intimate. It was a nice modern multi-color aesthetic was threaded well throughout the space. It felt happy and cheerful. Ample seating and lots of customers there at 10am on. Friday. There are also a number of cute local gift items you can purchase. I grabbed a few of the artisan lollipops for my friends! I ordered an Iced 1/2 Caf Americano with a slash of cream. It was smooth and creamy, cold and refreshing. When it first came out I watched the bright white cream sink into the chocolate colored coffee, like a dance, as the heat and cold slowly met their match. It was relaxing and beautiful. Pro Tip: this coffee is very caffeinated, so order decaf if you don't want a rush! I drink a lot of coffee, ordered 1/2 decaf and still felt it was a little too much! But the flavor was fab! read more

This place is aesthetically pleasing to not only order from - but to simply sit, relax and unwind. Their coffee is pretty strong and they have unique takes on certain drinks. Heck, even their kids options are a delight. Their hot Belgian chocolate is a MUST during the colder seasons. Four stars for great coffee and a modern take on decor! Service could use a lot more help -- and unfortunately, sometimes it does seem as if their AC doesn't work. Not sure if this is for storage purposes regarding temperature or whatnot, but it is unfortunately a bit of a turn off.

Another location of my favorite coffee shop popped up in Temecula in the last 6 months. Whenever I'm in town visiting my family, The Press Espresso is my go-to for caffeine. I believe that this is now the third location in town; there is also one in neighboring Murietta. This Press is near the Trader Joe's off of Winchester Road. I don't know what was here before, but it was obviously a different business. There's plenty of seating inside and a couple of tables outside. You'll find the same great menu for drinks as well as pastries. You can also buy coffee beans to take home and brew in your own abode. Be sure to check out their drink specials for seasonal items. read more

Love this coffee shop so much, I've been to every location, the lattes are amazing, employees are lovely, and the coffee shop is decorated so cute. I go here at least once a week, however the reason for the 3 stars is the lack of acknowledgment about an issue. My mother got me an e-gift card from here for Christmas, I never received it, I mentioned it to the girl working at the ynez location 3 times I came in for a coffee, she said she texted the owner. I've been back 3 times and I still haven't received my e-gift card. It's really frustrating that the issue still hasn't been resolved, I got a free drink chip the first time I mentioned never receiving the e-gift card, but one free drink doesn't equate to a $50 dollar gift card that was a special gift from my mom because she knows I love this place. Please do better about the giftcard system. read more

I really can't believe they opened a 4th location pretty soon they'll be like Starbucks with a location on every corner. I'm very happy that they have this location because it's close to where I do most of my shopping. It's just like the other locations very cool with that hipster vibe but very simple. Yes this location is pretty small but they have a few tables outside also keep in mind that this location is in the Trader Joe's parking lot which is small and always busy. They have the same great drinks, great customer service, and close to my Macy's. You got to check this spot out! read more

This spot is quickly becoming my favorite in the area. One of the first things I noticed about this establishment was how fair the prices were. I tried the $7.50 turkey pesto panini at my last visit, and it was a very large serving and a great blend of flavors. I'd also like to give some recognition to Malachi, one of the baristas. This young gentleman gives me hope that the new generation isn't absolutely screwed! Keep it up, Press! read more
