They also offer breakfast and lunch sandwiches along with an assortment of bakery items and wide range of beverages from lemonades, smoothies and teas.

I ordered a cold brew with banana foam, and the cold foam was forgotten at first. When it was added afterward, it kind of threw off the whole drink. The final result tasted more like the dreaded coffee-flavored water than an actual cold brew, which is not ideal when coffee should be the main event. The staff is friendly, the menu is COMPLEX, and they have a lot of interesting drinks and other cool items for sale. It's worth stopping by once to check out but based on the drink I had, I probably wouldn't go out of my way to come back. However, one super cool thing is that when they make their ice cubes, they're made out of coffee so that when it melts, it melts down correctly. That's probably the only thing that's bad ass about this place.

Parking can be a little tricky, since there is only street parking available. Molino's shares an entryway with the Hideaway, which is a lounge. Inside Molino's, the interior looks rustic, with brick walls and a huge window. There is a couple of tables, with people at work. At the front, is the coffee bar. There have the menu on a chalkboard and a smaller sign with the specials on a small table. There was only one worker and she had greeted me when I came in and to let her know if I needed anything. I saw they have a pastry shelf of muffins. I ordered the 12oz iced horchata latte. They have multiple sizes. Once I received it, I did taste some horchata, not much. It was still good though. When I went to the restroom, I saw that Molino's was connected to the Mission Galleria! I had no idea!

So if you get a large ceremonial matcha with cold foam, expect to pay $14.00 each. Two matchas with…read morecold foam? $28... The coffee shop itself is perfect for downtown Riverside--very fitting with the vibe and style. The lady working was very friendly. However, the menu is extremely busy, and you practically need a key to understand what's what or even how to order. Once we ordered, I noticed the ceremonial matcha is made with a handheld electric frother, and the cold foams are premade in jars and simply added on top (not made fresh). When we received our matchas, let's just say it tasted exactly like it looked: mostly milk with very little matcha flavor, topped with subpar cold foam. This is by far the most expensive, worst-tasting matcha I've ever had. I can usually find a way to justify things or give a place some grace, but this was beyond help.

I had such a great experience at Modu Cafe today…read more I ordered an iced latte and a matcha latte, and both were excellent. The coffee was smooth, and the matcha had a rich, balanced flavor without being overly sweet. What really stood out to me, though, was the bakery. The pastry display was absolutely beautiful--it felt more like an art exhibition with a subtle Japanese aesthetic than a typical bakery. I tried the Milk Cream Bun and the Miso Cinnamon Roll. The Milk Cream Bun was light and perfectly balanced, with just the right amount of sweetness. The Miso Cinnamon Roll completely surprised me. I was curious how miso would work in a cinnamon roll, but it didn't taste noticeably like miso. Instead, it added a subtle savory umami that elevated the sweetness of the cinnamon roll beautifully. It was unlike anything I've had before. This place left such a great impression that I already want to come back and try the rest of the pastries. Highly recommended!

Here is what my sister and I got: Milk Cream Bun - crazy soft and fluffy Dark Chocolate Mochi Brownie - rich chocolate flavor but was a bit too chewy for me Matcha Tonic - had that sharp, refreshing bitterness that I love Iced Matcha Latte - smooth, earthy and clearly high quality They do have a 4-pastry limit per person because everything sells out so fast but it's totally worth the trip. Finding street parking around York Blvd can be a gamble and we got lucky we found a spot in the front.

I especially loved the kiwi. She said the almond butter was made in house, and it was all yummy. The inside is so cute. It's rare that you will find cushioned chairs in a cafe, so I was very happy about that since I had some work to do. There are tables, sofas, and a long row of counter space with cushioned barstools. There's also plenty of outdoor seating. The cafe was pretty full; I sat at the counter area and felt pretty comfortable getting my work done. It looked like mostly college students, but there was a Girl Scouts group meeting behind me as well. There is a clean bathroom in the back. I didn't try any of the teas, but they were very popular with everyone ordering that day. If I'm in the area, I'd definitely go back!

They used to be located behind their current location, but now that they share their space with the…read moreAcai Bowl place, this makes it so much easier to find. The front entrance gets you a view of their menu and acai bar + toppings. We normally come here for their tea, but we often see most patrons come through for acai bowls. With their new space, the drinks were still really good. Customer service is pretty top notch - friendly, informative and helpful. I got a matcha latte with oat milk (default is almond milk) and hubby got the black milk tea with 2 portions of boba. He really loves boba in general and had inquired how much they put in. The cashier gave an estimate on cup and thought he needed 2 portions. It ended up being too much boba, haha. On our next visit, he got the same drink but with 1 portion of boba since they were quite generous the last time we were here. Two portions of boba was too much, but 1 portion is just right. I opted to try something different and got the coffee milk tea, which ended up tasting like chocolate milk tea to me. There's a lingering milk tea finish, but super subtle. That comes with 2% milk, but you can always sub for a non-dairy option. Overall, super cute shop with lots of seating available to catch up on studies or friends.

Worst service I have experienced in a long time…read more We visited Saturday, August 22, around noon. I ordered two chilaquiles plates for my parents, who are 84 and 89. We were given only one plate. We were only charged for one, but because I was paying for four people and the total was already high, I didn't catch the mistake at checkout. Rather than make my 89-year-old father wait while everyone else ate, my mother split her plate with him. Then we realized they had prepared the eggs incorrectly. We ordered over-medium eggs specifically because my father loves the runny yolk. They served them over-well. He didn't realize the mistake until he had eaten much of the egg white and cut into the yolk. I told the server, and she initially said they would replace the eggs. Then she returned and told us they needed to TAKE THE HALF-EATEN EGGS BACK FROM HIS PLATE before they would give him the eggs we originally ordered. I was stunned. My father had already eaten much of the egg white. The remaining egg was sitting on top of the chilaquiles and beans he was eating. They wanted my 89-year-old father to remove the half-eaten remnants of their incorrectly prepared egg and hand them back before they would replace it with what we had ordered in the first place. I explained that the error was theirs, that we had not received what we ordered, and that my father had already eaten part of the egg before discovering the yolk was completely cooked through. The server still refused to replace the eggs unless we surrendered the half-eaten ones. What exactly were they planning to do with a partially eaten egg from a customer's plate other than throw it in the trash? That interaction was so petty, unsanitary-feeling, and inhospitable that it overshadowed the entire meal. The coffee didn't help. It was lukewarm and extremely bitter. Then there is the tipping system. You pay and are prompted for a tip before receiving your food or experiencing any service. We carried our own drinks to the table and got our own water. After the missing order, incorrectly prepared food, and argument over surrendering a half-eaten egg, I genuinely wondered what I had tipped for. Ringing up the order? Mistakes happen in restaurants. A missing plate or incorrectly cooked egg would not have prompted me to write this review. It was the way the mistake was handled. When your restaurant makes an error, replace the food. Don't argue with a customer over a half-eaten egg, especially while an 84-year-old woman is sharing her meal with her 89-year-old husband because his order was never placed (though requested). It was one fiasco after another. We will never return.

I only paid $6.25 for my drink which is an amazing price for a drink of that size and the amount of toppings that were on it. My drink was really good! The boba was so chewy and had a nice brown sugar taste. I think this might've been the best tapioca pearls I've ever had. However, when I was 75% done with my drink all I tasted was milk. I don't know if it was my fault because I didn't mix the drink properly.... The location of this isn't in an extremely busy area, it's near warehouses. It was a little difficult to get out. The cafe was adorable, they had board games to enjoy and lots of cute scenery! This might be one of my new boba spots and I look forward to coming back and enjoying more of their menu.
