Slow Bloom always has a rotated seasonal menu that literally reads like poetry. like wdym i have the option to get a Whimsical Strawberry Magic Cheesecake Latte???? i love hojicha more than regular matcha (before the "uuurm, actually--" comments i know they're both matcha) BUT MY FRIENDS STILL CALLED ME PERFORMATIVEEEE?? and do i care? HELL NAH. Hojicha tastes like a nuttier, cocoa-like, more roasted version of matcha, and Slow Bloom does Hojicha GREAT... close with all the drink cafes in KTown.... BUT IN THE INLAND EMPIRE BABY. it was so smooth, whisked, and CREAMY. the vanilla cream top really topped it off, it was perfectly balanced and not insanely sweet. BUT THE MATCHA IS FANTASTIC HERE TOO. i tried a sip of my friend's matcha latte and it was POTENT. ur not gonna get a light green matcha... it'll be dark, yet smooth and not bitter at all. definitely one of the top matchas in the IE. the coffee selection here are so unique, and you can tell they GENUINELY care about have high quality options and varieties (their drip options are plentiful, include origins, and flavor profiles... i see all you pretentious connoisseurs--)

4/15/2026 Stumbled…read moreupon this place as I was in the area post-Yelp Elite Event. What a happy find! DULCE DE COCO (Limited Menu Item) Got it as a hot drink. Creamy, fluffy foam, coconutty flavor with a bit of caramel sweetness, dark chocolate espresso and alotta cinnamon flavor. Deliciously perfect for a Fall or Winter drink! This drink took me by surprise! Really enjoyed it! CHOCOLATE SEMOLINA OLIVE OIL LOAF It wasn't bad, but a bit disappointed that it was straight up chocolate loaf. Technically, it is more of a cocoa loaf, as it is not sweet nor is there chocolate in it. However, it had a lovely spongy, bouncy texture. Flavor-wise, it's nothing special especially with the long name and all. SUNSHINE MATCHA LATTE (Iced) Nekohama matcha. Latte was a bit sweet. But you can taste the Earl Grey and matcha. Got it with whole milk. It made it creamy, which was good. I did taste a hint of lemon in it as well. Honestly did not like that extra lemon flavor, as it distracted from the Earl Grey itself. I don't think the lemon was necessary. There was citrus flavor, but not tartness. I think citrus peel would have been better if they wanted an extra citrus flavor. Overall, it wasn't bad except the lemon flavor. Really threw me off. CUSTOMER SERVICE Service was nice. Recommended drinks were good. INDOOR & OUTDOOR SEATS A-PLENTY Ambiance had a retro feel, which was fun. Indoor was packed! No tables or seats available. Smaller tables for 2. Outdoor tables and seats were available. Big groups can be seated outdoors with larger tables. Bathroom available. PARKING LOT Small-ish parking lot. Parking lot was packed. Given how packed it was inside, there were a few spots for parking. There is also free street parking as well. Love the drink options here and would love to return when I'm in the area!

We already have a regular spot we go to in the area, but we decided to try something new today! This location is inside the Kith and Kissui boutiques which is really cute already. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because one of our drinks was the wrong order, but other than that their drinks were a hit. Our server was quick with our large order and I wouldn't mind trying other iced drinks throughout the Summer either. I ordered a hot rose cardamom latte with oatmilk which was just ok for me, my co-worker ordered an iced strawberry latte with orange cold foam ,but received an iced strawberry matcha instead. Luckily she also likes matcha and it was really good, so she wasn't that disappointed. My other co-workers ordered a hot honey cinnamon cappuccino with oatmilk, an iced golden hour from the spring menu, a cortado and a cinnamon roll. The golden hour was an iced mango lemonade topped with matcha and she loved it. The cortado tasted real authentic according to my other co-worker. The cinnamon roll shared amongst a few of us was to die for! We're definitely coming back.

Hoji has been my go to matcha and tea spot ever since I discovered it near UCR. It's surprisingly…read morehard to find a great matcha spot in the IE, but Hoji is definitely a hidden gem. I've tried their matcha latte multiple times and it's honestly comparable to some of the famous matcha spots in OC and LA. The matcha is smooth with a medium bodied mouthfeel, a velvety texture, and just the right amount of sweetness. Their thai tea is also excellent but my favorite drink has to be the hojicha black sesame with boba. The hojicha has an amazing roasted aroma while the black sesame salted cream adds a rich, nutty, and savory depth that makes the drink incredibly addictive. The handmade boba is the real highlight. It's soft yet chewy at the same time, it's just the perfect texture. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, and I appreciate that they offer a stamp card for returning customers. The shop itself is on the smaller side, but the retro vibe, cute art wall, and full length mirror make it a fun place to hang out and snap a few pictures. This has become a staple in my drink rotation and I can't wait to come back and try more of their menu.

A craving for boba, means a need for a boba adventure! We stumbled upon Hoji after browsing for…read moregood boba on our way home. Hoji shared the same parking lot with a coffee shop we're familiar with! On a Sunday afternoon, there was plenty of parking. When you walk up to the store, there isn't a sign on the outside. Before walking in, there's also a posted sign that says only 10 people at a time. We counted about 6 people, and proceeded to walk in. The decor is timeless and vintage. Super cool to look at and enjoy. We turned around and there was the cashier. It definitely is a small as can be. We took a bit of time looking at the menu and then deciding our drinks. We were a bit indecisive, but settled on their Rose Salted Cream and their Hojicha Black Sesame. The cashier was a bit interesting and didn't bother to help us or explain anything. He had us repeat our order a few times out of inattentiveness. It wasn't loud in there, but he definitely wasn't listening. Immediately after our order, he goes on his phone. Another worker had finished making a drink for a customer, and had to nudge the cashier to let him know the drink was ready. Even then, he wasn't on alert about it and made a face at the customer who stood up to grab the drink. Our drinks came out fairly quickly. We took our photos and left to sit in the car. It was quite small and stuffy in there. Our drinks were delightful! You can definitely taste the hojicha. The black sesame didn't overpower the drink, as for the rose salted cream, it was flowery enough. The boba itself was definitely handmade and perfectly chewy. I can understand why this store's drinks are a favorite. I deducted a star because of the service and attitude. We walked out the door saying goodbye, and even then, they didn't seem to care. The customer service here is lacking, but at least the drinks are decent. I might wait to see if any changes are made to their workers before coming back to try again.

The coffee is not too strong but not too weak and if this is something that you seek, they're open for service every day of the week. I ordered one of their seasonal lattes which was the French Raspberry Latte that was well balanced with vanilla to calm the tartness of the raspberry. It was as recommended iced and it definitely hit the spot. I started off with a shot and the cortado and my tastebuds totally agreed that their caffeinated drinks are legit. The service was great along with the recommendation. I also really enjoyed her eighties playlist that kept the vibe positive. The atmosphere is so chill and the decor super cute.

We had the Crater (hot) and the Spacecraft (iced) along with a vegetable quiche that was well seasoned. There is plenty of seating inside and some tables and chairs outside as well. But they are VERY popular so even today on a Tue around noon it was PACKED we were lucky to find a spot. The sraff is very friendly and answer any questions you have. It's my bday and they wrote happy birthday on my cup . When the staff would pass where we were seated they would tell me HBD which o thought was nice. When we left again one of the staff wished me HBD again and even said bye to my husbad by name. The fact they remembered his name after about an hr and all the dri ks they had made we thought was impressive . Definitely worth coming to get a drink here and hang out with friends or work/study.

The Drink: I ordered a 16oz London fog with Whole Milk and Vanilla Syrup. It was perfectly a strong caffeine fix not overly sweet. It's clear they take their tea as seriously as their coffee. The Food: I grabbed the Bacon, Egg & Cheese on Rosemary Garlic bread. The rosemary garlic bread is a game-changer; it adds such a savory, aromatic depth to a classic breakfast sandwich. The bacon was super crispy! Service: Broody took my order and he was great when I was asking about their tea menu to help me find a strong caffeinated tea that's also sweet.

Head into the back and they have a really cool dedicated space to work or study. It's super convenient because it's set up with multiple outlets, making it a perfect hidden gem if you need to plug in and get things done.

My only issue is that there was barely any actual drink. It was only filled like 60% of the way and then a ton of foam on top. So by the time you put the boba in there's literally just a bit of actual drink. For $9 I honestly would expect something more. Might I suggest less foam or a slightly larger cup to accommodate foam. Although it was delicious it did feel off due to price and amount of drink given. Def needs less foam and more drink. As far as customer service the lady who made my drink did have a nice polite smile. The young girl who took my order wasn't the most friendly. Answered questions with a lack of confidence/unsure. A warm greeting/smile goes a long way. She didn't do anything wrong, just a perspective from a customer as I'm sure the company is always searching for way to improve. Thank you Though for a delicious drink!

Tsoko Cafe (TC) is #6 on our food adventure's list and it's right next door to TUSL... perfect! TC is also one of the OG food vendors at RPM. Their signature drinks, matcha series, Tsoko latte series, milk teas, iced teas, and coffees are handcrafted with care and creativity. We still sat in front of TUSL. I ordered at the TC counter. Young lady behind the counter didn't show much expression except to take my order. Got Butterfly Pea Flower with peach flavor for my eldest daughter, House Brown Sugar Boba for my youngest daughter, and Halo-Halo for moi. We got our drinks quite swiftly. Both my daughters enjoyed their drinks, however, we were disappointed that about 2 inches of liquids were taken off from the top of their drinks just because we asked for no ice. It's a bummer when shops do that. As for my Halo-Halo, it was just okay. I felt it lacked sweetness and it was small for a $10+ drink. Probably won't order it again. Didn't get a bang for my buck. Anyway, if you're a drink enthusiast who desires delightful experiences, Tsoko Cafe may be the place for you. Come seek and celebrate with a refreshing drink. We'll return to try some of their other specialty drinks that may give more value for my money. Btw, NO CASH PAYMENT ACCEPTED! Note: Park for free at 101 W Stuart Ave. Very short walk to the market. Train tracks are between parking and market. Cross with care.

I've been coming to this specific Hooray location for almost a year, multiple times a week, after…read moregoing through a significant change in my life. This is my honest review. H - Hospitality - The staff is friendly, respectful, hardworking, and personable. In no particular order: Zoe, Mandy, Grace, Zach, Piper, Reagan, Mackenzie, David, Ava, Amelie, Rivers, Casey, and Emery (apologies if I've missed anyone) all demonstrate a high level of customer service. Each person brings different strengths that promote a relaxing and enjoyable environment. The owners, Nick and Rayji, are passionate about their craft and never cut corners when it comes to providing the best products and service possible. I've witnessed the rare moments where a drink was missed, something was spilled, an order was misunderstood, or a rude customer walked in, and every situation was handled with kindness and great hospitality regardless. O - Outstanding Drinks - Having visited hundreds of coffee shops across LA and Orange County, I can confidently say Hooray keeps up with the best of them. The coffee isn't too acidic, and the drinks have been consistently excellent. My favorites are the Honey Cinnamon Latte, "Zach's Special," and the Golden Hour (thanks for bringing it back!). I'm not typically a matcha drinker, but the Golden Hour is my exception. O - Open, Inviting Space - Although Hooray can get busy on weekends, the outdoor seating adds a welcoming option. The nook in the back is a great place to disappear into a book or dive into your work. The bar seating is my favorite because I can socialize with the baristas. Also, parking is one of Hooray's biggest advantages over many coffee shops in Redlands. R - Reasonable Prices - Drinks and food are reasonably priced. They bring in pastries from Two Trees and Deuax. Always a good selection. They also make food in-house, and it's all delectable. My go-to orders are the Avocado Toast, Grilled Cheese, Quesadilla, and Turkey Pesto Panini. A - Aesthetic & Décor - Hooray has a cute, quaint, and homey feel. It's a great place to hang out with a friend or family member, get some work done, or simply study. The music varies depending on who's working, classic rock, indie, house, pop, rap, R&B, and more. It has never been too loud for me. Y - You'll Want to Come Back! Just like me! Thank you, Hooray, for being a part of the community and creating an environment where people can be themselves.
