    Seasonal menu - pumpkin pie dry iced americano.
    Hilda P.

    Love Gota! I have tried several drinks but my favorite is the iced banana pudding latte. I really love that they have a seasonal menu as well. Today I tried the pumpkin pie dry iced americano and it was delicious. It was the perfect strong coffee taste with just the right amount of sweetness. Their breakfast pasty was good but a bit dry. They have something for everyone and I love the variety of options. Ambiance is fun and they are usually playing some relaxing pop music from the times I have gone. Staff has always been polite and pleasant even when there is a line or they are busy. Drinks always come out fast!

    Iced Tiramisu Latte

    Cute little coffee shop! I got the Tiramisu Latte and the Abuelita Latte, and both were really good. I also tried some of the pastries, including the ricotta pastry and a croissant, and they pretty good as well. It's definitely a spot worth trying. The ladies working there were very friendly and welcomed me with big smile. The drinks are on the sweeter side, so they're not something I'd have every day, but they're a great treat when you're craving something indulgent.

    I came across Gota when I was looking for a coffee shop on my drive and decided to check it out! I ordered the abuelita latte as I asked which one they recommended between that one and the horchata. I really liked it! It tasted exactly like how I expected. I got a medium and it was almost $8. It is pricy considering they have a large option. I liked it and would come back. They also had seating and food.

    I love Gota Coffee. Their service is always great & they get the orders out in such a timely manner. I also love all the local artwork they have around the wall & they even include the artists' names and contact info. The banana pudding latte is amazing!!! i love banana and it was honestly the perfect amount of sweetness for me. Great place to visit if you're looking for a quick bite & great coffee!!

    Such a sweet vibe in here, my first time coming here I had to stop by for some caffeine boost. I had a long morning and afternoon of wedding planning and organizing. The lovely lady boosted my energy up. This is why I come to small coffee shops and not a chain coffee shop. Great service and great coffee! Thank you.

    First time here today and it was a nice experience. Parking is up a hill and ok. The space is small and decent when you walk inside. A few small tables for seating in there and a lot of random paintings on the wall. Menu is simple and easy to follow. They're a bit quiet when you walk in but they do greet you when you walk up to order. Like any other coffee shop, they're busy making your coffee so I don't blame them for focusing on making the drinks for their customers. They also sell pastries and breakfast there too if you want something to munch on with your coffee. I got the large iced tiramisu latte and large iced banana pudding latte. I asked the lady helping me how many shots came in the drink. She mentioned that all their large drinks comes with 3 shots of espresso, which is a good amount. There are also milk substitution available for those that are lactose like my husband. That's an extra charge on top of adding an extra shot too. Drinks are a good size. Pricing is already $8 for the drinks I got so add ons can make it go up. All up to how you like your coffee. Wait time is average and not long. The only hard part is the door to get out. If you have two drinks in your hands, it's hard to pull open the door. Thankfully there were a few nice guys sitting near by that I was able to ask to open the door for me since my hands were full. Kind of wish their door was reversed. Pull open from the outside and push open from the inside so you can easily open/push it yourself when your hands are full. Lol Other than that minor inconvenience, it's a hidden gem and I will definitely be back.

    Iced Cookie Butter Latte

    Have been to Gota Coffee a few times now and do enjoy the occasional drive to Norco. Service is fast, they have an online ordering system and great seasonal drinks. One of my favorite drinks is the cookie butter latte.

    Banana Pudding Latte, Iced Chai
    Courtney D.

    Wasn't my first choice in the area. But glad I tried because they do have chai on the menu which is one of my faves. Although in my opinion was a bit pricey for both lattes given both were 16 oz. Altogether both came out to $21. All honesty wasn't my aesthetic so it wouldn't be a place I would frequent, especially given the summer months it was quite warm on the inside. The chai latte though was one of the best I've had in a long time but the banana pudding latte had intense flavor in the beginning but lacked flavor after being mixed and was pure coffee flavor afterwards no balance. They did have a nice variety of options I would try on the menu so worth a try but in my opinion not something I would make the effort to go out of my way to get.

    i thought this place was super good! they had a lot of different options that sounded super good. i'm a sucker for a banana pudding latte and it did not disappoint. i really want to try the cinntoast latte next time. cool artwork inside everywhere and they even have a little trinket box. cool spot

    Iced matcha with strawberry cold foam
    Rachel R.

    I thought two years was a decent amount of time for improvement. Came back. Service is even worse. It's SO disappointing because I always root for small businesses but this is just excessive. Baristas clearly do not like being here. I felt like I was punishing them when I ordered. As if I forced them to perform for me like a little monkey at the circus. Dude I want to like them sooooo bad when you make me feel bad as a customer, I won't come back. Like smile... or something. Please. Any indicator that you like working here. A little joy goes a long way. I've worked coffee before! I know it's tough! But it took 20 mins and I was the only one there.

    Jenny C.

    The customer experience is HORRIBLE! You are not greeted when you walk in and you standing at the register for a while without anyone saying a peep. You order, pay and don't even say "thank you." You always want to support small businesses only to receive expensive lattes double the price of Starbucks and to top it off RUDE girls working. I originally asked for a small and she was already writing on the cup, I changed my mind and asked for large instead. Mind you, I apologized but it looks like it was a HUGE issues for herself because she got bothered. Last time ever coming here, much rather go to Starbucks !

When browsing their menu, I was particularly interested in their coffee flight. However, I didn't think I'd had enough time to enjoy that so I got their light roast drip coffee. It took about 5 minutes for this to be ready. Coffee was insanely hot but this was to be expected since it was a fresh batch. It was some strong coffee and even kept me up later that night lol.

    Every time I have a doctor's appointment, I usually stop by the Corona location, but since my…read moredoctor's office moved to Norco, I was so happy to see they have a Crave right nearby. It's honestly not far at all from my appointments, and the staff here is always so kind and welcoming. They answer questions, greet you when you walk in, and overall just create such a good vibe. I always let them know that I have celiac disease, and I appreciate that they actually listen and try to take the necessary precautions. Of course, eating out is never 100% safe when you have celiac, especially in a shared facility with gluten products, and there's always a risk of cross-contamination anywhere you go. But it's still really nice when places take you seriously and do their best to help you safely enjoy something. I love that they carry a variety of gluten-free pastries and treats. This time I picked up the pandan cookie, the ube cookie, the mint chocolate chip cookie, and the chocolate toffee crisp cookie. They also usually carry gluten-free banana bread, although they didn't have it this visit. I also noticed some protein/date ball type snacks, but I didn't try those yet. Most of their gluten-free cookies are individually wrapped, which I really appreciate. They do have some displayed in a shared pastry container section, although they are kept separate and not touching the regular pastries. Just something to keep in mind if you're highly sensitive. They partner with KJ Gluten Free Cookies, which seems to be a smaller startup business. They are not certified gluten free, but from what I've seen and experienced, they do appear to take precautions to keep things gluten free. If you want to check them out or learn more about their products, their Instagram is @k.j.sglutenfreecookies. Their cookies do contain milk and eggs, though. I may be lactose intolerant and have a mild egg allergy, but honestly I hit the trifecta at this point I keep my Benadryl and Lactaid with me because if I find something gluten free while eating out, I'm going to enjoy it when I can. Eating out with food restrictions is already hard enough. The inside is also super cute and cozy. I love the seating setup with the tables, stools, comfy chairs, and overall atmosphere. It's the kind of place where you can sit down with a drink, pastry, or even do homework for a while. The customer service has always been great at both the Norco and Corona locations, and the staff always seem friendly and happy to help. I genuinely just love the vibe here every time I stop by after my appointments.

I also finished the drink much faster than I normally would with a 3-shot cortado. It tasted more like it had two shots instead of three.

Based on this visit, I'd give Crave Coffee & Tea in Norco 3 stars.

    We came here because the first place we went to was packed, just like the first time we tried going…read morethere. Scramblers also has a long line, but in comparison the wait was more reasonable. I've since removed the other restaurant from my list of places to go. Congrats to them for being so popular, but when people are forced to wait for an hour by default, it's an automatic turn off and they're losing customers. Anyway, while waiting in line at Scramblers we had time to look at the menu which is a big sign hanging over the counter. When we first walked in, though, the sign was still far away, so I also brought the menu up on my phone. I was glad there was a vegetarian Garden Crepe option and the cashier was accommodating when I asked for even more ingredients to be removed. It was packed inside, so when we were asked we told her we'd prefer to sit outside. Outside, there are small wooden signs with numbers on them and you go to the one you're assigned to. We were sat next to a tree which was appreciated because we got some shade. There's also a table with condiments if you want to grab a bottle of ketchup or anything else you might want. At the time I remembered thinking what a nice day it was to be sitting outside, but later learned the air quality was actually bad that day since there was a fire we didn't know about. Also, summers in general have bad air quality because the heat traps the pollution. Then again, even if we chose to sit inside, the door was open for people to line up, so we couldn't have escaped the bad air either way. Also, Scramblers is on the corner of a busy intersection and I saw one car cutoff another car at the turn and the other driver honk and yell at the other driver, so not exactly the most peaceful place to sit down and eat. Anyway, the food tasted good and I ate everything in one sitting. After being to this plaza a few times now, I've learned that it's best to take whatever parking spot you can get even if it's far from the place you're going to. Scramblers is especially difficult to get to, so it was a bit of a walk to and from our car. I've said it before in other reviews, but I curse whoever planned the layout of this plaza, like what were they thinking? Still, there are enough places for us to want to try out to keep coming back.
