Tsoko Cafe

This spot has been in my bookmarks for MONTHSSSSS!! Headed to Redland and thought "this is the…read moreperfect time" and idk why I have waited so long?? Full disclosure, I went in the evening, so I wasn't fighting the morning/weekend crowds. First of all, the outside space is awesome, there are cute tables and lights outside (but don't worry there are umbrellas so the sun won't beam on you). The inside is super vibey with ample seating. I'm going to assume that because lots of folks were working on their computers that there is WiFi available. Definitely forgot to snag a picture of the drink menu, but the barista told me about their house syrups that are available all year but they have a seasonal menu. 10/10 recommend the pb&j latte

Okay, the drink I had was Spectacular! I loved the layered flavors, and that perfect little hint of…read moresalt in the cold foam had my tongue tingling. Every sip had something going on, and the drink itself (Vienna) was the best part. However, when considering price and size it, was a bit of a let down. It only comes in a 12 oz, and at $8 a cup, the price-to-size ratio didn't quite make sense for me compared to similar specialty coffee shops. The space was also not really my vibe. There were A LOT of people working, but the quarters felt tight and cramped. Instead of cozy, homey coffee shop vibes, it was giving college dormitory where everybody crams in to work and hang out. Apparently, I've aged out of that aesthetic. Service was decent and quick, though, and I really love the mission behind this business, which definitely deserves some extra love from me. And a random shoutout to the bathroom because it was actually large, spacious and quite nice. Bottom line: The drink was phenomenal, the mission is something I really appreciate, and while the price/size and atmosphere weren't quite my thing, I still had a fairly decent experience overall.

My iced vanilla Americano wasn't mixed, so I ended up drinking concentrated vanilla syrup/sugar at the bottom of the cup. On top of that, the drink was filled so high that it was already spilling over when it was handed to me. The bigger issue was the Wi-Fi. The internet appeared to have DNS problems on both my phone and laptop. I have some networking experience, so I spent time trying to troubleshoot and reconfigure my computer before asking the staff. A barista acknowledged they were aware of the issue but said they didn't have access to the router or anything to fix it. If this location wants to attract remote workers and people staying for a while, I'd recommend looking into the Wi-Fi reliability. It made what should have been a productive visit much more frustrating. The staff was polite, but the overall experience could definitely be improved.

The lovely interior with various modes of seating transports you to a chill Palm Springs minus the gas prices for the drive. If you're a college type with a laptop and some stylish clothing, this is your vibe. I decided to give them some time to get their act together before I returned for a review and today was the day we tried their offerings. I had a breakfast sandwich and my partner in crime had a breakfast burrito. Even though it was after 3:30 p.m. neither of us cared and our 'breakfast' so good. We shared a chai latte which delivered creaminess and flavor. The seating was comfortable, the music playlist was pleasant, and the lighting was comforting. Why anyone would go to Starbucks these days is beyond me. My only complaint is perhaps they need more food offerings. I asked for a spicy sauce to replaced by mayo and they said they had no may. (A kitchen without mayo?!?) My partner in crime is delighted by the many vegetarian offerings, but maybe a little more in the meat side of things? RoadRunner Coffee is just so next level for State Street and Redlands in general. I'm delighted that a business like this will be knocking State Street out of its lethargic nostalgia and into modern-day wonderfulness. It pairs well with our new Page78 bookstore.

I picked one up for a picture, and the coating actually stuck to my fingers. The strawberry also tasted like it wasn't very fresh, almost like it had been sitting out for too long. They tasted okay, not bad, but nothing really stood out. Unfortunately, the overly wet, chewy texture and the not-so-fresh strawberry really ruined the experience for me. Sorry, but I wouldn't recommend this place.

I recently visited Tsoko Cafe and tried their Ube Royale, but unfortunately, it didn't live up to expectations. For the price, it was pretty disappointing. The flavor was off, and it felt more like a novelty than a well-crafted drink. I understand they're a new spot, but that doesn't excuse the lack of quality. Honestly, I'm surprised there aren't more negative reviews. Hopefully, they'll improve, but I won't be rushing back anytime soon. read more

Found this secret gem for matcha lover like me. They have lots of matcha options. We tried strawberry matcha and the Kyoto matcha latte, drinks were perfectly balanced imo. The barista mentioned that they use house made fruit jams and don't use high fructose corn syrup which I appreciate coz most places I've been still use that unhealthy sweetener. def will be back again. read more

This one came up on my radar, but I think I overlooked it since I wasn't sure I would be able to make it that day. After catching up with a friend over dinner, she said I HAD to try this amazing tea place that was nearby because it was that good. She's had it multiple times and everything has been pretty amazing. I was sold - we headed over and honestly, it's such an unassuming location that I would not have thought a tea place would be here. Almost in an industrial business plaza with some other drink places in the nearby vicinity (a coffee place that my friend also recommended). Parking is decent. Storefront is pretty small, more for a grab and go although there's some chairs/benches for people to sit and wait. They have a very cute interior atmosphere. And they also have weekly baked goods that they sell in their refrigerator. I was debating between getting 1-2 drinks, but I had already had my quota for the week (!) so I opted for just one. Now I regret not getting two, haha. I ordered the assam salted cream $6.50 for their larger 24 oz with their handmade boba for an additional $0.75. My friend went with the hojicha salted cream. Was able to adjust sugar level but unable to adjust ice - and I did feel like they packed a lot of ice into my drink. But the flavor was on point and I loved the chewiness of their housemade boba. The tea was still slightly sweeter than I would have liked at 50% sweetness - but the cream on top, getting a sip with all the components was pretty amazing. And made my drive home that much more bearable. Saw somebody walk out of the shop after I had ordered with 4 thai tea salted creams ... was sad that I didn't get one for myself. But that gives me a reason to come back! They also have oat milk teas, brewed teas, whisked teas, and limited menu teas. tl;dr - solid tea place in Redlands. Highly recommend if you're in the area and craving something to drink!
