    If you don't look for this, you'll never find it, it's almost a legal while in the wall.. but well…read moreknown And loved! What can I say about this place.. I've definitely been coming here since the beginning, thanks to my mom! It's stood out from the very beginning & I love how much they have expanded. There's something for everyone on their men. I think they have some of the best matcha's around (but if you drink your matcha with LOTS of sweetener.. you probably won't like a real matcha from here) -- I say this bc people complain that it taste like GRASS... and well, it damn near is (green tea leaves) lol -- all jokes aside, their drinks and food are all hand crafted and all made and / or roasted in house! I have not once ever had a complaint about this place. I love the ambience inside and out. Plenty of spaces to work from (one of my fav spots) Service is always ask expected for hand crafted drinks and food! The workers are always very knowledgeable about their menu items & products, love that! Their pop tarts... if you can get them when they have them.. TRY THEM OUT!! Actually, all their pastry's and breakfast items are delicious! (I just always forget to take pictures) haha I will always come here for food/homemade pastries , a drink or to work!

    Component Coffee Lab sits tucked behind the downtown buildings, the kind of spot you don't stumble…read moreinto by accident. You find it because someone told you about it, or because you were looking for a place that feels a little more city than Central Valley. Brick walls, hanging art, a patio out front call it rustic, call it urban, call it hipster. Whatever the word is, it fits. Inside, the place hums. Not the quiet hum of a sleepy café, but the full‑volume buzz of people who treat coffee shops like co‑working spaces. The whole back section was a sea of laptops when I walked in, a slow tide of remote workers drifting out as the hour passed. Young folks, older folks, groups talking over each other a mix that tells you this spot has become a kind of community hub, even if the noise makes it hard to read without noise‑canceling buds. I came for a simple moment, a London Fog and a book. The tea was good, made with Rishi, a brand I'd never heard of but wouldn't mind trying again. I sipped it slowly, trying to sink into the page, but the chatter kept pulling me back to the room. Not a bad thing, just not the right place for quiet reflection. Some cafés are built for solitude; this one is built for motion. The staff was friendly, your standard modern barista crew, casual, quick, and easygoing. They run a tight operation, even offering mobile orders, something you usually see in bigger industrial coffee spots. Pastries, sandwiches, teas, espresso, the menu covers all the bases. Finding the entrance was its own adventure. Two doors, a divider in the middle, and a moment of "Wait... which side do I go through?" Not a dealbreaker, just one of those quirks that makes you laugh once you figure it out. Lighting is interesting here, low lamps mixed with a flood of natural light pouring in from the center of the shop. It gives the place a warm‑meets‑industrial feel, like a café that grew out of a warehouse and decided to keep the personality. Will I come back? Maybe. It's a great spot for people‑watching, conversation, or getting work done. But for reading, for sinking into a book with a drink, it's a place that demands either silence from the world or silence from your earbuds. Component Coffee Lab is loud, lively, and loved, just not quiet. And maybe that's the point.

    The açaí bowls are amazing and their smoothies to all the workers there are so kind, the atmosphere…read moreis so welcoming overall a great place to hang out and study

    Another Honest review! Lets go!…read more First off, tower if slowing becoming the place to hang out during the day for sure! If you are at fresno city College or even in downtown this spot is not a disappointment. The parking can be pretty tough at times but its worth it. The monet you walk in, and just see where there is to offer you change your opinion right away. The light color furniture and lots of seating areas as well as board games and games to play while you chat and have coffee or a smoothie. They serve devious Acai bowls and juices as well as smoothies, but thats not what I ordered this time. My wife and I ordered the burrito with the peanut sauce!!!! A MUST ORDER THE SAUCE! And I got the chicken sandwich amazing! The sandwich can be a bit messy but very Delicious. The warm but cool bites you take just becomes enjoyable and no overwhelming flavors just good food. Nice toast to the bread as well not Overly toasted and not Soft. The burrito was something else as well. It was wrapped in the vegan green wrap, but It was like a freshing bite with every bite. Very enjoyable to eat as you can crunch on the veggies on the inside of the burrito and the chicken and then to top it off the peanut sauce! If you are familiar with spring rolls then yup! Same idea but with a stronger hint of Ginger! Yum!!! All in all it was a must visit when in tower!
