One of the best matcha places I've been to. The bagels were also really good. I arrived during opening at 7am and the two ladies were very friendly. I ordered the flight of matchas and blueberry bagel with cream cheese. My favorite was the mango match and tiramisu cold foam was my second favorite. The ambiance is very aesthetic and clean. Awesome hip place to go with a group of friends. Pretty spacious inside. Fresh Watermelon: 4/5 Mango Matcha: 4.5/5 Tiramisu cold foam: 4.5/5 Blueberry Bagel w/ Cream Cheese: 4.5/5 read more

Stopped in for the elite experience event & glad I did! Tiramisu cold foam- 4/5 Pistachio latte- 4.5/5 Watermelon juice with matcha cold foam- 5/5 Mango matcha freeze- 5/5 Bagel with blueberry cream cheese- 5/5 Everything was delicious! For my favorites: I've never had a matcha freeze so that was unique! It was sweet & flavorful, without being overly sweet. The watermelon juice with matcha cold foam was so refreshing and had a light earthy taste. The bagel was served warm and nicely toasted. They were also generous with the blueberry cream cheese, which I appreciated. As for the cafe itself, the restroom trash was overflowing, but the restroom was otherwise clean. A couple of the tables needed to be wiped down; however, the cafe was busy when we visited and people had just gotten up from those tables, so it was understandable. :) Since this was my first Yelp Elite experience, I wasn't really sure what to fully expect. The cashier was friendly and greeted us as soon as we checked in, but he only mentioned the blueberry and sesame bagels and that they were out of regular cream cheese. Later, I seen they had a pizza bagel and I would have loved the option to try that instead. It would have been nice if all of the available choices had been mentioned during check in. Not sure if they were out or if it just wasn't mentioned. Another staff checked in on us after receiving our order and he was very nice. Overall, I had a great first Elite Experience. The food and drinks were excellent and I'd definitely come back. Also thank you for Sammy for coordinating and introducing to this nice spot! read more

I got a lotta respect for any business that does their best to deliver value and quality. Mikey G's delivers. I got their SEC and vanilla bean latte. I loved both, my only complaint is that my everything bagel was a little too salty. I also got a taste of their pistachio latte and I will be getting that drink next time. Vibes are child and laidback, and the staff was very kind. I'll be coming back, and I wish them the best. read more

Transported back in time with this retro-feel coffee shop! Stopped by just before closing (sorry!) but the two girls working behind the counter didn't mind and we're so sweet. I ordered the Tiramisu Cold Foam on top of their Lightning Milk. The cold foam has the most perfect texture with a sprinkle of cocoa powder that balances out the sweetness. The Lightning Milk (which is cold brew, vanilla syrup, and oat milk) is honestly one of the best cold brews I've had with such a smooth coffee flavor and just the right touch of vanilla sweetness. Coming back soon to try the rest of their seasonal drinks! read more

I decided to stop in while the elite event was going on, even though I wasn't on the list, and I'm glad I did. I tried their "matcha on tap" with tiramisu cold foam, and it was absolutely delicious. The fact that they offer an "on tap" matcha at a discount is really nice and unique. Their simple menu is also refreshing--keeping things straightforward is a breath of fresh air. When we ordered, the gentleman who took our order was named Tanner. He was extremely helpful in guiding us through the menu and options. After picking up our drinks, we decided to sit and enjoy our matchas. There are multiple seating areas, including a sofa, a park bench, and tables with chairs, so you can come in and use your computer or socialize with friends and family. They also have a special posted: if you purchase any merchandise, you receive a free drink! Very unique as well. read more

I saw a friend post on Insta about this place, and I can't believe I slept on it for so long. This place was amazing! The staff was so nice, and the atmosphere was fun, welcoming, and friendly. I loved the focal art piece on the wall with the shop's catchphrase, "For Those I Love." That's exactly the feeling you get when you walk in--a warm hug from someone you love. There's plenty of seating to hang out for a while and a simple yet classic menu. They stick to the classics, but the vanilla latte with house-made syrup was anything but basic. It was the perfect combo of sweet, creamy, and great-tasting espresso. So good! I also bought some merch and got a free drink with it, so I went with the raspberry matcha. I'm no matcha connoisseur, but it was freaking delicious. The raspberry smash at the bottom with the perfectly creamy matcha on top was such a great combination. I don't like matcha when it's too earthy or bitter--I definitely prefer my drinks sweet and super creamy, for reference. Side note: the damn bagel sandwich! I'd go back just for that. From the fresh bagel to the spicy mayo, it was everything I needed to go alongside my coffee. Love this place. read more

Woo hoo, a new coffee shop in the neighborhood. Came highly recommended so I had to try it out. I ordered a cold foam pistachio latte; fabulous delicious and affordable. Wonderful, helpful customer service and friendly which makes q huge difference these days. Brightly decorated and plenty of seating, clean and a cool vibe setting. I will be back to try their bagels! Update: Tried the breakfast bagels, yummmm! The sauces that came with them were both so delicious with a hint of fire! The bagels were so fresh! 4th visit this morning, did not realize the menu would change monthly. If it was a fan favorite, please keep it on the menu, please, please, please. I was offered the tiramisu cold foam which was very nice and subtle but I REALLY enjoyed the Pistachio cold foam wirmth their lightening milk. Hope it makes a comeback. read more

I tried the matcha with whole milk unsweetened to really see how the matcha tasted at baseline. i would say it's comparable to much of the matcha I've tried around the IE. i imagine with some syrup, you could have a fun drink but for any matcha lovers out there, I'd say this is average or a little below for the IE area. i didn't try their coffee, which is what they're more known for. overall the staff were friendly and efficient. they had bathrooms available for customers. the shop itself is industrial style and can seat around 15-20 people. overall nice place, but I'd like to see better matcha. i hope to try the coffee next time I go! read more

Mikey G's was right next door to where we were at. We were able to park our car right in front do the thrift store and walk over. You can also park across the street in front of the goodwill. Right when we stepped out, we were very excited about the art on the sides of the building. They had photos of mice that were cleaning! It was very silly but cute. Once we stepped inside, we didn't immediately order. There was an old television with a webcam attached to it, to which we took a photo with. The coffee barista was very sweet and patient with us as we admired the decor and took our time looking at the menu. I decide to get their latte with vanilla bean syrup, while my fiancé got their tonic with mint. The drinks came out fairly quickly. We noticed several tables to study at with an interesting transition towards the back of the store. There were numerous people studying/doing work when we got our coffee. The coffee is strong and decent. I would say there's nothing unique about their menu; you've got the bare necessities. If you just need a good cup of joe with a quirky design, this is the place to go. Not bad for being new! read more

Cute new matcha and coffee place in the thrift store district of Riverside. I got a flight that features the mango matcha freeze, fresh watermelon juice with matcha cold foam, tiramisu cold foam and pistachio latte. I thought the title "matcha girl summer" was a very cute concept. I think the interior could benefit with a bit more flair- especially the ubiquitous Instagrammable little photo ops with fake flowers and neon art. That would help me feel like I am not in some barren dormitory after all the students have already vacated for the semester. read more

Solid new coffee spot in the Riverside plaza area. We stopped by for a quick cappuccino after breakfast. Everyone inside was pretty friendly and our drink was out in just a few minutes. There's a good amount of seating inside and it was pretty packed on a holiday. The space is clean and nicely decorated. We happened to get seating at a table where you can doodle on some paper! The drink itself was pretty good as well. Overall this is a solid spot for some coffee! read more

Finally was able to try Mikey G's today at their second location! There is parking across the street to make it easy to walk over. I ordered an iced vanilla bean matcha with 1/2 sweetener and oatmilk. The matcha was pretty good and great price. It was a little more on the milky side but still good! Service was great, the girls taking and making my order were very sweet! There is seating and space inside but this location is smaller on the inside than their other location! Can't wait to come back for their next seasonal menu! read more

You know I have to pull up to a new coffee shop in Riverside. Finally stopped by this location (2nd? I think?) of Mikey G's this morning. Ended up having to park across the street at Goodwill because it was busy with the line out the door. Love the vibe and energy of the place. Yellow hues everywhere and spacious. I got the lightning milk with Reese's puffs cold foam and that cold foam seriously makes all the difference. It's literally like drinking the cereal and it's super delicious. They're card only, fine by me, but worth noting if you're tryna pay in cash. Definitely will come back to try some other stuff. I'm eyeing that lucky charms matcha. read more

Coffee? Dark roast, less sweet, pretty good. But the Hojicha is bangin'! They used a banana bread syrup and it was an amazing experience. While not on the standard menu, I asked for it and wasn't disappointed. The staff was friendly, the atmosphere retro and chill. Only marked down because we had ro do several u-turns just to figure out if they were open or not. A lit up "open sign" or a-line signs outside when they open would be a big help in bringing more attention to this business. I'll definitely be back. read more

New coffee shop in town! Wonderful, friendly and welcoming service. Luv how they revamped this location. Inside seating with waiting area bench and couch. Tap to pay. Traditional real coffee drinker menu, matchas and seasonal breakfast inspired drinks. Staff were very helpful customizing a drink for my liking they're awesome. It came out perfectly. The cortado was a smaller shot and will well poured latte art. Fresh bagels and cookies were available at the time we stopped in. Will definitely be back to try more of their menu. Limited street parking in front with goodwill parking lot right across the street. It's a smaller side street easily accessible. They close a little early so be sure to check their hours before heading over. read more

On our way we found this place rate 4.6 and we definitely had to try it they have interesting new flavours like tiramisu, pistachio, mango and peach (they also have latte if you are not a matcha person) you can customise your drink what is awesome, my pistachio matcha didn't come with a foam and I asked them for it and they gave it to me for free, their staff is very kind, very helpful and very happy, when we got here they were saying hiii welcome with a big smile. This a place works for a date, to work or have some fun with friends. I am rating them just 4 because presentation could be better, they just have plastic glasses. I will come again :) read more

Really cute new coffee spot next to Goodwill and Baker's Dozen. Coffee and thrifting?? Don't tempt me with a good time. I was excited to try their cereal drinks, but unfortunately, those are gone as they change their drinks bi-monthly. So I ended up getting their Matcha on tap which is vanilla bean matcha and oat milk. I got the large with the vanilla cold foam and it was $9 and some change. It was really good but a bit on the sweet side so keep that in mind. The inside is really cool and stylish with pops of bright yellow, and they have the cutest cups. Gotta come back soon! read more

Walking into Mikey G's feels like stepping into a place where time slows down just enough to enjoy the moment. The aroma of freshly ground coffee hits you right away--rich, warm, and inviting. The space strikes that perfect balance between cozy and stylish, with soft lighting, clean design, and just enough buzz from conversation to make it feel alive without being overwhelming. What really sets Mikey G's apart, though, is the people. The staff greet you like you've been coming in for years, even if it's your first visit. There's a genuine energy behind the counter--no rushed interactions, just good vibes and attention to detail. You can tell they care about what they're making. And the coffee? Consistently top-tier. Whether it's a smooth cold brew, a perfectly balanced latte, or something more creative off their specialty menu, every drink feels crafted, not just made. Pair that with a fresh pastry or light bite, and it turns into more than just a coffee run--it's an experience. Mikey G's isn't just a stop in your day; it becomes part of your routine, the kind of place you look forward to going back to. read more

Since it's fully opened they have added bagels to this location's menu. The bagels are definitely a tasty addition and we spoke to one of the owners who confirmed they are made by them at the other location and not bought from a vendor. The blueberry cream cheese was a nice addition. The pizza bagel is an instant favorite. The staff is friendly and service is consistently fast. They've added a few small touches to the interior and seating so it's comfortable. It is one of our preferred weekend stops now. read more
