It was bold rich and delicious. Their baked goods looked amazing but I'll have to try those on the next visit which will be soon. The staff were very polite, very informative and extremely helpful. Inside was a great chill vibe with relaxing music playing in the background and it's a fantastic place to get coffee, hang out or do some work. There are several coffee spots in the Riverside/Avondale area and Bold Bean is one of the best. If you're a coffee fan, Bold Bean is a must if you're in the Riverside area.

BREW continues to impress with its consistently well-presented atmosphere, unique decorative wall hangings, and a menu filled with plenty of tempting options. My selection, the "Brown Butter Pecan Latte with Oat Milk," was beautifully crafted and delicately balanced. The rich brown butter and pecan flavors were clearly present from the very first sip through the last, creating a smooth and enjoyable coffee experience. It was great returning to this spot, and there's no doubt I'll be back again to sample more of their menu offerings. of 5 (5 of 5). 6-21-2026

The establishment is very easy to miss and sits on the very end with not a lot of signage. It was a little warm inside but definitely gave a very mom and Pop vibe. There is a sign in the front at the front register that says "press the button if you want Boba". I pressed the button twice. The cashier was pleasant but he seemed to be one of the few people working so he was doing a little bit of everything. He made my drink quickly and it wasn't as sweet as I expected but it was still decent. Im also used to boba teas being a little colder - it almost like more ice needed to be added. It did get better as I drank it. I do believe I would ask for extras to get the sweetness right.

Both delicious as can be with just the right amount of sweetness. Mom gets so excited when I visit and have an iced coffee for her and today was a little different. When she couldn't drink anymore (because it was empty) she began ripping her cup open to get all the excess whipped cream and cereal from inside the cup. She's never done that with any of the other coffees I've brought her from other places. So this definitely had me laughing and enjoying our visit today. I even made a little video that will come later on of her giving her "review" of her coffee. Maybe this will turn into a series or something. Who knows? But today was a great visit with lots of smiles and laughs.

The corn cakes were thin and cooked perfectly and held up to the massive amounts of filling stuffed inside. So flavorful the chicken salad with avocado delicious, the beef with cheese and sweet plantains, so many flavors and textures, one bite and you just wanted more! We destroyed these, no leftovers, so good! oh definitely get some of the cilantro sauce too! loved it , can't wait to visit again!

Selection: Banana Gingerbread Latte (hot, with oat milk) -- A delicate yet flavorful choice, carrying its banana and gingerbread notes beautifully from the first sip to the very last. Truly enjoyed this drink. Foxtail continues to be a wonderful place to relax with friends, settle into a quiet moment with a book, or get some studying and meetings done.

Lastly, I also wish there was better seating there was one couch but otherwise you're stuck with hard plastic chairs and tables inside.

I was there for a Cheeselandia event and I must say they picked a lovely spot. As soon as I walked in I noticed all of the plants scattered throughout the space. And the presence of the plants instantly gave me a peaceful feeling. I took home a piece of cake as well as a piece of spinach quiche. Both were delicious but my favorite was the quiche. The piece was big enough for me to have it two days in a row. Service was friendly and inviting. There was also a huge patio and a parking lot. They host regular events such as trivia night which I learned from reading the flyer on the bathroom wall. And they are open later than a regular coffee house. I suggest stopping in and checking them out!
