    This cafe was so cute on the inside! It was very warm feeling. It wasn't too busy when I walked in, just 2 other customers were inside. The staff was very friendly and answered any questions I had. I received my food/drink within about 10 minutes after ordering. The great pumpkin latte was not all that good. It was a bit too sweet for my liking. My friend tried it and she said it was alright but also way too sweet for her. Maybe an extra shot would've been a good idea or just lighter on the syrups. I ended up throwing the drink away since it was just too much for me. The panini was alright. The taste was there and it was nice and hot (since it was freshly made) so the cheese and pesto were superb. My only gripe was the chicken was a bit too dry for me. It made it a bit too tough for me to eat, and kind of hurt my jaw after a few bites. I would probably come back to this place and try other items instead because it seems like they have a good thing going, I just might've not gotten the best options.

    Ordered Halloween specials Wolfsbane latte and witches brew (medium are 6 each). The witches brew was a matcha base, not quite right. Wolfsbane was excellent . The ambiance was thoughtful and excellent for Halloween. Service was quick. Place has some power plugs and WiFi so it might be a cool place to work.

    This place is so so cute!!! I love their Halloween decorations and the vibes inside the shop. Service was solid and drinks came out in a timely manner. Despite the good vibes of this place, I was left slightly disappointed because of the drinks. I tried the pumpkin spice, golden morning, and banana bread latter. All were not so great. Only the pumpkin spice felt flavorful enough. The flavors were too subtle in the other drinks, I prefer a stronger taste. Also, banana bread didn't taste like banana bread imo. All the drinks tasted quite milky or watery? It wasn't bad, but I don't think I'd come back here again for drinks. Maybe for people who like subtle flavors, this is the place. But I really like more of a kick so it was a no overall for me. But yes to the decorations! I love it and would like to see how they decorate for Christmas lol

    We have been here already 3 times and always tried different and most popular coffees from their menu one was the Churro and Toffee coffees, but didn't like either , it was too watery and the seem like they used not good quality syrup or sweetener cause it smelled not good. I was happy about this shop since it's only walking distance from my house but I got disappointed and I would still prefer Kuppa Joy or Yava Bakery or Qamaria .

    A representative kindly treated our office to coffee and drinks from this café. Two of us ordered the Coco Red Bull drink, and unfortunately, we both discovered what appeared to be small worms or larvae floating in our beverages. We are unsure whether they came from the syrup, ice, cups, or another source, but it was very concerning and unexpected. Needless to say, we were extremely disappointed by the experience. We appreciate the gesture from our rep, but finding contaminants in our drinks has made us lose confidence in the café's quality control and sanitation practices. Unfortunately, we will not be ordering from here again. I hope no one else experiences this here.

    Breakfast burrito
    Sam M.

    Stopped by Before Ten Café for the first time and had a solid experience overall. I ordered a cappuccino and a breakfast burrito, both were good! The cappuccino had a nice balance and smooth texture, and the burrito was hearty and flavorful. The vibe is an interesting mix of lowkey hipster meets slightly bougie North Fresno--stylish but still relaxed. The staff was friendly and welcoming, which added to the good atmosphere. I asked for pico de gallo but got the spicy sour cream instead--it was okay, just not what I expected. Bonus points for the mini Cholula packets though - perfect touch for the burrito! Only thing I'd change: it'd be nice if dine-in customers got their coffee in real cups or mugs instead of paper ones, it would elevate the experience and match the café's cozy aesthetic. Overall, a great spot for breakfast or a mid-morning coffee. I'd definitely come back to try more of the menu.

    We stumbled into this coffee shop because we were bored with Starbucks and absolutely LOVED it. This cafe is decorated super quirky with hilariously named seasonal drinks (Wolfsbane Latte anyone?). The waiter is very friendly. They also have a ton of outlets so definitely recommend the place for studying .

    Cute and new coffee shop. I like the decor and the chill vibe. There are a few board games to play and a charging station. I ordered a breakfast burrito and a ube coconut matcha. My drink was beautiful presented and tasted just as delicious. The burrito was just basic and all the sauce came on the side. I'll be back to try more cause they have a huge selection of food and drinks.

    Another Fresno fave! Take a detour on your way north on the 41 and exit Friant Road east. Turn left on Fort Washington and you'll find this charming coffee spot. The vibe is relaxed, the staff is friendly, and the menu is easy to read. Can't wait to come back!

    This new coffee spot was super cute and had decent service, but my friend and I were disappointed with coffee and food. We ordered: -Brown Sugar Shaken Espresso ($5): my friend did not enjoy this at all. On her first sip, she immediately recognized a gritty, undesirable texture in her drink. She tried a few more sips, but ultimately did not want to drink anymore. -Yogurt Parfait ($5): again this was my friend's order. It came with vanilla yogurt and some berries. It was supposed to come with granola, but none was served. She compared it to a McDonald's Fruit and Yogurt parfait in taste and quality. She did not finish it. -Golden Morning ($6)- this was my drink. The cold foam was good. But the overall depth and taste of the drink was nothing special. I found the taste a little bitter. -Burrata Avo Toast ($10)- I was so underwhelmed by this avo toast. It had pesto, avocado, burrata and cherry tomatoes. In theory, it sounded delicious. It usually comes with balsamic but I requested it without. The bread its served on is not hearty enough for this dish; it just smushed under the toppings. So I just felt I was eating forkfuls of the toppings I don't feel compelled to return.

    This place was great! Two solid breakfast burritos, and they come with different salsa to add. One pico de gallo, a Sriracha, sour cream, and a chipotle sauce. The meat was fresh and the grilled tortilla was perfect. Highly recommend for a quick bite and nice coffee

    Happened up this cafe this morning after my morning walk at the park. They have some delicious options for breakfast and their teas are really good. They recently opened up, it was a different cafe before but I never got a chance to visit. They have some sitting outside and inside. There are some table games to play while you are waiting. My friend and I played Connect Foir while we waited. I tried their breakfast bowl, this has scrambled eggs, chopped ham, sausage patty, bacon, cheese and potatoes. It comes with pico de gallo and salsa. It was delicious and filling. I loved their iced tea, Mango Palmer. Half black ice tea with Mano lemonade with chunks of frozen mango. Truly refreshing. The service was a little slow, I wasn't sure if it was because they only scheduled two people because of holiday weekend or if that is the norm. Nevertheless, we had a lovely breakfast and the two employees were doing good job. Definitely will go back to some other items on their menu.

    Red Apple Cafe has always been one of my recommendations to friends and family looking for a good…read morebreakfast in town. I've been a few times, and I remember going for the first time about 9 years ago. I remember peering off of Herndon and what a cute red building that looks awfully busy and had a gravel parking lot. Back then it felt very hard to eat here, you had to get here early before the lot filled which obviously means the food is good. Today we were met with kind service and were immediately sat in the out door seating. Which we didn't mind because it was fresh. All the staff members were incredibly kind to me, and I really appreciated the nice compliments and overall vibe this establishment offers Breakfast menu is both American and Mexican inspired which is a plus for this bilingual gal, We stared off with a Mermaid Mimosa for the birthday boy and a Bloody Mary for me. Red Apple gets straight to business as I'd say their drinks are worth the price as they are poured well. I'm a Benedict girl, I went ahead and ordered the smoked salmon Benedict which came with some flavor potatoes. The bene was 10/10 I felt I could really taste a high quality salmon and the egg was perfectly poached. Birthday boy ate the Country fried steak at my recommendation. Pared with potatoes and pancakes. It's safe to say the plates were left cleared. Overall I've never been disappointed here and I'm happy to say my guest enjoyed it for their first time as well. There's a reason that parking lot stays busy

    First time trying this place, so I wasn't really sure what to expect other than the reviews saying…read morethe food was good. Well, the food definitely exceeded the reviews. Everything we ordered was cooked perfectly and stayed fresh even after picking it up and bringing it back to our room, as we were in town for the weekend. I can only speak to the service being exceptional, both over the phone when taking my order and in person when I went to pick it up. I would imagine the tableside service is at the same level. I'll definitely be back to experience the atmosphere inside and have another go-round at the menu.

The service was fast, the outdoor sign in sheet is only when it's busy so peek in to check it out and just walk in when it's not crowded. We went after brunch so seats were open. Everything was decked out with train decor. My bf was craving some biscuits and gravy so he wanted it from there, it was my first time so I wanted to try as well. We share a breakfast combo which includes 2 eggs I chose overeasy, 2 meats either bacon sausage link or patty, country potatoes or hash browns, 2 biscuits and gravy and I added sour dough toast. The biscuit and gravy are definitely home made. The biscuits weren't perfect they were odd shaped like a dome and the gravy was smooth and creamy not too thick or clumpy. I would definitely come back to try a different style breakfast combo with scrambled eggs, hash brown and bacon

    HUGE Thank You to our Server Jessica and the rest of the staff here! Everyone was so nice, Jessica…read moreespecially was super attentive, our coffees were always full, our food came out at a decent time and it was still nice and hot and she was so friendly throughout our time here, so Jessica if you ever see this, Thank you so much, we appreciate you! We happened to be in the area today with a failed trip to Lithia Ford for a car repair. We both were hungry and needed to choose between breakfast or Mexican food, we flipped a coin and the coin chose breakfast. I'm glad it did, cause right when we were heading towards another breakfast spot, we made the quick decision to just choose what was nearby. It's a restaurant name we've heard of, but haven't been, so we opted to give it a try. I'm so glad we did! Because the food was amazing and the service just as much! Parking lot was full but not too crazy, that luckily came after we were seated. Inside was nicely themed to Louisiana Bayou with gators and cute signs with quotes and a big tree in the seating area with sound effects of bugs from the swamp. As soon as we walked in we were welcomed with a nice greeting from one of the busy waitresses who let us know we would be seated in a moment. Our server Jessica came up with a smile and a warm welcome and had us follow her to our booth. We both started off with coffee and browsed the menu, this menu had some usual fair but definitely stayed in the theme of the restaurant with Louisiana cuisine, like andouille sausage as a breakfast meat choice. I went with their "Hucks Platter" which is 3 eggs anyway you want, choice of potatoes or hashbrowns and you can choose between a couple varieties of meats, steak, chicken fried steak, sausage, bacon and andouille. It also comes with a choice of side, being toast, homemade biscuit or their huckleberry bread? I played it safe and went with the white toast. I also went with the bacon cause I love me some bacon! It was hickory smoked and my goodness it was cooked to perfection! My whole meal was cooked perfectly! I truly appreciate the cooking staff for doing such an amazing job during a busy morning. Jess chose the Banana Foster French Toast and my goodness! It looked just as good if not better than the picture. It was loaded, thick and comes with a side of eggs and your choice of meat. She loved the French toast, she's never had Bananas Foster before but she said it was decadent, sweet and had a nice caramelized flavor. Would recommend and also get it again! We paid, "with tip" around $57, which isn't bad for most breakfast spots now a days. Especially when you're getting this kind of food quality and service. We never went without a fresh hot cup of coffee and a nice check in from Jess or one of the other servers to pick up a plate or ask us how we're doing. I do apologize for no pictures, when the food came out, it looked so good we just dug right in! We both would absolutely come back and eat here again if we're in the area or back in Fresno looking for a breakfast spot. If you're in and or from here, you should definitely make this your go-to breakfast spot!

The biscuit that I had with the omelette was fresh and hot and a really good size. The okra came with two different dipping sauces. The restaurant has a nice vibe inside. Love this place and can't wait to come back again.

    Very late review, 2 months late…read more I went with my niece and a couple friends one Saturday morning. No reservation so we waited a good amount of time but it wasn't so long that it was unbearable. Very cute waiting area. I didn't expect it to look as... modern? as it did? I'm not sure what I expected it to look like but it was nice inside. Staff was suuuper friendly. Every single one we spoke to. Considering how busy they were (constant flow of traffic/customers)... I appreciate that they can still smile and make you feel welcomed. I ordered the OG French Toast, my niece got the Bacon, Egg, and Cheese sandwich on a Croissant. I can't remember what my friends ordered. Portions are very good. We could have easily split a plate (my niece and I) and be okay. Classic American breakfast. Everything was good/satisfying. We all enjoyed our meals. I also got their Brown Butter Iced Coffee-- saw one of the guys that worked there drinking one behind the counter and asked what it was, lol. I can't say it was the best coffee drink I've ever had but it was still pretty good. Not strong though. Though I've written a raving review, when it comes down to the food, it's not the best breakfast I've had around Fresno. It would not be a first choice for me personally but I also wouldn't mind coming back if my friends wanted to. Plus, there's so much more to try on their menu so it's not fair to judge overall food off one visit. For now, they are a solid 4.
