Good coffee and creative flavor combinations. REALLY good breakfast sandwiches. Your kids will like the filled donuts. (Sadly, the french toast cubes have been discontinued.) Friendly service, lots of seating both indoors (kind of echo-y) and outside in a shaded patio. It's a bit out of the way, in a small incomplete shopping center where half the parking lot has been fenced off and you can clearly see the spaces set aside for more buildings...eventually...but the only time I can remember seeing it anywhere close to empty was the time I got there five minutes before closing. read more

Enjoyed breakfast rival sandwich for lunch. Delicious, the fried egg cooked perfectly. I prefer to get my drinks before my food but they got the food out very quickly. Definitely look forward to trying more items. Nice atmosphere, convenient and reasonable prices for the high quality and gourmet taste. read more

loved this place :) the cookie butter latte was amazing and the service is always super quick and nice. :)

Okay just tried the iced Matcha latte. The got it with coconut milk and sweetened with lavender vanilla and OMG! I am now hooked. Best Matcha I have ever had! Everything i have tried from here has been yummy. The breakfast sandwich, donuts, and cold brew. Love them all! Staff is always friendly and we like the ambiance! read more

Shout out to BRIAN! He's a rare commodity in customer service. I am new to the area. One afternoon, I stopped by Rival, and he was super accommodating & very passionate about what he does! He explained the benefits of downloading the app and joining the rewards program. Because of him, I did and at least once a week I take the 9-mile drive to rival for a honey latte. Better Buzz is less than a mile from me, but I prefer Rival, partly because of his customer service. Thanks BRIAN read more

Not a real fan of their coffee. The 2 drinks we had, 1 hot, 1 cold. Both were underwhelming unfortunately- too watered down.

All the baristas/employees are nice and friendly. I always come here for their MaxiCali Loco Moco, they cooked it with quality rice (Basmati). Coffee wise, a little expensive for the regular cup size, coffee taste is okay. One of the seating that's against the wall/window, the first table is 'rocking' , have been like this for sometime, I hope they can have it fixed, please. read more

Food was ok , their menu is now changed completely . I was a big fan of their breakfast bowls. When I asked if they can still make one they weren't accommodating. I got their hot drip coffee not really their best . The ambiance of this place is pretty cool , music pretty mellow to enjoy with company . Don't know if I'll come back again. read more

the Anaheim was the best breakfast sandwich I've ever had in my life thank you for the sustenance read more

The Rival sandwich!!! This is my fav breakfast spot waaayyy better than any other fast food place and the price is right!!!

Been here a few times and the food is always delicious and the drinks are great. Everything is made quickly and the vibe is so chill.

I just drove clear across the valley to try the new Temecula location. I ordered the Creme Brûlée iced coffee, The Anaheim, and of course a side of fries. Everything was prepared perfectly. Everything is always so good. It's a good thing I went to the gym today or else I'd feel guilty about all the goodness that I just devoured! Of course I don't have a picture of the fries because they went in my mouth too fast so they never made it home. Oops. read more

Looked for coffee off the 15 that wasn't a St*rb*cks driving back to LA. Very huge and spacious place with an ample menu and outside seating. Now, it's a beautiful, sunny, 70 degree day ... and people are still choosing to sit inside without masks just having a time. Why not sit outside?! Also not a single mask for any staff member. Completely gross. I'm coming from LA with common sense regulations like wearing a mask when serving people, as we are still in a pandemic. Ok anyways: I ordered a drip coffee as usually that just gets poured right away so I didn't have to wait in this place and could get back on the road. All coffees are out in a queue which is fine except it's just a drip coffee so usually someone just pours it and you don't have to wait behind all the fancy lattes and whatever that take a lot of effort to do. Instead my drip coffee was in line behind lots of complicated drinks. While I was waiting a gentleman wearing a shirt that said "unmasked unmuzzled and unvaccinated " which, now that I knew where he stood on things, I didn't want to be in the vicinity of for an extra second. I have a feeling that shirt is not out of place here. Anyways it's a nice place, coffee was tasty though a long wait, but sit outside in the gorgeous fresh air instead of hanging out with unmasked folks! Just use you brain and enjoy fresh air, please - workers wear a mask when you're dealing with broad cuts of the public! These days I am trying to support businesses that are smart so if I'm passing through the 15 from San Diego to LA again I'll choose another option. read more

This is the best coffee shop within all of these surrounding cities by far. It has a drive thru (MOM WIN!). They make their food here. It's not that gross processed crap you get from other coffee shops. Great variety of drinks (coffee, tea, boba, energy drinks, etc.). The best part is the customer service!!!! Everyone is always so nice and the customer service is just amazing!!! read more

Rival Coffee - Rival drive thru - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Murrieta, California

Coffee is pretty good They're very friendly here Lots of space and outlets Parking is super easy There is a drive thru People come in to study but do NOT come after 3pm on a school day. I made the mistake of staying too late in the afternoon while studying and there are a million middle schoolers hanging everywhere inside and outside and in the bathrooms. Literally 4 girls came out of the stall at one point. Yes I'm old haha and I do remember my friends and I hanging at a jack in the box after school lol. This probably is only between 3-5pm. Other than that this is the jams. read more

Ordered food from DoorDash and Rival did not disappoint! Best breakfast I've had in a long time. I ordered the Mexican Cali Loco Moco, so flavorful and delicious. Food arrived hot and fresh! Excellent beverages as well! Will definitely be eating here more often. read more

Came for some good coffee and to study. Really liked how they have a lot of seating here! We came on a Saturday and got lucky to find a place with an outlet. Not sure if the other seats have as much outlets, but we enjoyed! Music is played a bit loud, so if that bothers you i would suggest bringing headphones. There's an outdoor area, and a more intimate section. I ordered a vanilla lavender latte with oat and it was so good. Definitely not too sweet which i enjoyed. read more

Fantastic coffee and food. Excellent service and friendly staff! Great location lots of seating!

On a Saturday morning they already out of many items. I would only come here for the Coffey next time. Food is just.... Mediocre 8/10 for coffee 10/10 for food presentation 4/10 on taste and quality Lox Benedict $15: presentation was amazing. This dish is missing the arugula as stated on the menu. Potatoes was really cold. Hollandaise sauce was very sour. Toast had cinnamon, which definitely did not go with this dish. Poached egg was over cooked. How can you mess this up so badly? Pineapple upside down pancake $14+$4: very under cooked in the middle, it was raw. No whipped cream as stated. Only thing that was good about this was the Pineapple butter. Add eggs and bacon for $4 more. But sadly it wasn't worth it either! Bacon was hard, scrambled eggs was terrible. Scrambled eggs were dry, definitely bad chef who doesn't know how to cook eggs. Spent too much on worthless food read more

Well hello Rival!! I have been here a few times for coffee tea or breakfast items and it never disappoints! Yummy flavors in every drop and bite! Pricing is reasonable and I love the charging station options out front. Customer service is great and place is cozy and clean. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. A huge plus for having a drive thru too! Here are a few of my favs Avocado toast Baked Oatmeal Fruit Sushi Kids meal with egg bacon and banana rolled in fruity pebbles Baller BLT Drinks: Cookie Butter Latte Hibiscus Iced Tea Original Nitro Cold Brew Honey Vanilla Cream Latte read more

I always go to Rival, really close to home. Friendly service and great tasting food and drinks. The location is nicely decorated and plenty of seating. They have a drive thru if you're on the go as well. Bacon burrito is delicious with the salsa and got the watermelon sugar high energy drink which also tasted great. They have a rewards program and happy hour deals now! My go to coffee is the maple brown sugar latte with oat milk. read more

Rival coffee, has done it! This is my new favorite spot for breakfast/brunch. I wasn't expecting the place to be aesthetically pleasing. The set up of this place makes you want to be there! The outside seating gives you a comfortable backyard feel. The coolest part of this place, is that it has so much seating and they serve alcohol! Lol! Food? The food is good. We thought it would be a typical coffee spot with light bites. But this place offers more than your average avocado and toast. They have pancakes, French toast, beni's, pastas, sandwiches and more! My boyfriend and I tried the breakfast pasta and breakfast burrito. The breakfast pasta is worth the $12! It's huge and filling. It also tasted really good. You can order it with sausage or bacon. It also comes with toast! We would definitely order that again. As for the breakfast burrito, it fills you up. But it didn't stand out (not that it's a bad thing). It's your typical breakfast burrito, so don't expect so much out of it! Would order it again if I was in the mood for it. However I'd order the pasta over this! Drinks?! They offer a lot of drinks. We decided to go with London Fog & Matcha Latte. The London fog I got it with lavender and oat milk. If you order it this way, it won't be as creamy. I wasn't a big fan of it, as it lacked more lavender flavor and it tasted like water. Not sure what oat milk brand they use. As for my boyfriend matcha latte, it's not that sweet. If you're expecting it to be sweet as Starbucks, it's not. We enjoyed his drink because we appreciate Matcha in all ways. We got Almond milk with it and vanilla syrup to sweeten it and it wasn't that sweet at all. Creaminess is perfectly right in between. Would we order this again? Yes, but probably in a smaller size. The only things that could use a fix would be the poached eggs. It wasn't poached at all. As for the burrito, I think it would have been better to offer the chipotle crema on the side with the salsa sauce. Would have been more enjoyable with the breakfast burrito. Service was good! Everyone seemed friendly. What I love about this place is they are on it. They seemed to be fully staff. Things came out so fast despite how busy they looked. read more

Great table service...Coffee drinks on point! Portion sizes were generous for what we ordered. Biscuit and gravy was good...hubs would have liked more gravy and said next time he would add an egg. The MexiCali LocoMoco was tasty and decadent (good umami taste). Location a bit hidden but just follow your navigation! read more

This was a delivery. I was so looking forward to their rival breakfast sandwich. Let's just say that it was a flavor bomb and not in a good way. It came in a nice brioche bun...with fried egg (got mine hard because I hate runny yolk), bacon, tomato spread/jam, garlic aioli, arugula, cheddar and I think provolone. The bacon was very sweet, or was it the tomato spread? Not enough arugula to counter the richness, couldn't taste the egg or the aioli. I like flavor bombs as much as anyone else but there was wayyyyy too much going on here. It needed a savory acidity to it because it was just so sweet for a breakfast sandwich. I DID NOT like the bacon at all! It didn't taste like bacon. And to make matters worse, I added their smashed avocado (what was I thinking because it made the sandwich slick), which by the way was the best part of the sandwich flavor wise. Some people might find the sandwich fabulous...I just like a good savory breakfast sandwich with different textures, balanced filling and flavors that compliment one another. I just didn't like this one. It was filling and generous proportions, but just not my cup o' tea. Like I said, others might love it. On the upside, their French fries are bomb...dipped in what looks like a very thin coating of batter and oh so crunchy! Loved them. And unless you are planning to share with three other people, I would suggest the small sized serving. Was enough for AT LEAST two people! I also had the hot Chai Latte with coconut milk and it was quite tasty and satisfying...very good. The only reason I gave it a 3 star was because I did not enjoy my sandwich but, I will try something else. I'd say give it a go. I have only tried one sandwich and it was delivered to Menifee from Murietta so, this is a first impression review. I will say the sandwich is probably a lot better fresh off the press rather than delivered from the next town over. I won't order it again because to ME the flavors were just too much and undistinguishable. But, I will try another sandwich at another time. read more

Drive thru service was good when ordering but when I pulled up to the window the girl did not confirm my order or say hello. She told me my total, waited for my card to go thru and walked away. A few minutes later she handed me my food without saying a word and closed the window. Another minute goes by and she hands me my drink and also does not say a word. Maybe it's me, but I find that a little rude. This used to be one of my favorite places but after today I think I've finally decided this place is overrated. The photos here shows how the Baller BLT used to be vs the one I received today. The bacon definitely is not cooked the same and lacks flavor compared to my previous visits. Seeing the huge tomato was also very disappointing. Keep in mind this cost $13. My food ticket says the server is Shelby S, not sure if this is the person who made my food or the girl at the window. Either way, both of them need more training. read more

With a zillion coffee spots in Southern California, I'm so glad to have stumbled upon Rival Coffee! Disclaimer - I haven't actually tried their coffee but I stopped in this past weekend for breakfast and wasn't disappointed! My husband, our baby and I were headed on a short road trip and needed a quick breakfast so we consulted our trusty Yelp app and found Rival Coffee on the way. We arrived around 9am and it wasn't too busy yet, and ordered a few of the scramble bowls. My 20 month old can eat an adult's portion of food however in hindsight, now that I know how big these bowls are, the three of us could've managed with just two bowls. They're pretty hefty! The scramble bowls were chock-full of goodness - eggs, bacon (sausage for my husband), onion, tomatoes, spinach, and we all added avocado. At $8.50/each (plus another $1.50 for avocado), it was a pretty good deal, considering between the three bowls we had enough left over for lunch later. The only reason I took a star away is because my husband ordered an orange juice and it was just plain nasty. It had an effervescence to it, as well as an odd flavor that my husband noted tasted like it was going off. I'm not sure what kind of orange juice they use but it certainly isn't fresh-squeezed and most of it went into the trash. Also, they don't have any kids breakfast menu items, so I had to pay full price for my baby unless I wanted her to have a grilled cheese or pb&j. Hopefully they'll add a kids breakfast plate at some point. read more

Why does it state in yelp that they offer vegan options ? But when I went thru drive thru and asked if they had any vegan options they told me NO. I'm sorry this place really needs to work on customer service skills. read more

It was fine that they're really overpriced but I liked the breakfast burritos and the convenience of a drive thru. Went today and was told you can't order burritos or bowls at the drive thru because they have a restaurant now...... 1. Don't have it on the menu if you aren't going to sell it (was told it was discontinued a day ago which doesn't matter, the decision was clearly made before that so fix your menu before you put it into effect) 2. You might as well not serve any food and do drinks only at the drive thru as it makes no sense to have a partial menu (one for quick service and one for a "restaurant " all within the same building) 3. The drinks are not worth $8. Pricing is terrible and it's not that great tasting to be charging that high. No longer going to pay that much for bean water. I'm sure they'll lose a lot more customers over this so we'll just have to wait until the restaurant fails to have them fix this. Until then, I'm not going back to sit in a restaurant or go out of my way for take out when the food was already just okay. It was drive thru okay. read more

Still on the search for my new regular as far as coffee goes. Rival is a good option and is the most convenient due to the drive thru. They have a wide variety of teas (hot or iced!) coffees, cold brews, and specialty items. They also have a wide variety of food items. Be cautious as some of the items are only available inside. I've tried multiple items like the maple brown sugar or watermelon cold brews to the orange ginger iced tea. All are great options for a pick me up and refreshing drink. The food is great! They has a special bacon they make that is slightly sweet and so crispy! read more

Great coffee flavors and unique flavor combinations. The filled donuts are always a treat. Coffee is done well but there are two reasons I took off two stars: the price is WAY too expensive for a cup of coffee. And the staff is really young and uninterested in giving any kind of customer service - it always seems like it's a bother for them to take your order, they really don't care. Yet their Instagram posts make them seem fun and personable - they are too young to care about others and have a lot to learn about service basics. read more

Love their mocha ice blended and everyone are so nice and sweet!! Best part is their happy hour

Pretty cool place. Anytime I'm on that side of town, I try and find my way in there. Brown sugar latte is my go-to!

The rival breakfast sammy is incredible, the poblano egg sammy is also great! The burritos are ok but could use more going on, like their other items. We've ordered their beautiful donuts soo many times but they ALL taste the SAME! They taste great just all the same creamy filling no different flavors. Just misleading since they look and are labeled as such. Just a heads up when if you decide to get every flavor like we've done too many times. But overall a quick great breaki spot w a drive through!! read more
