    Spindrift and .25 cent cup surcharge

    I'm a loyal--or at least I was a loyal--Silver Member, and the great service at my regular spot is the only reason I choose Coffee Bean over competitors. But this Palmdale location (Store #244, next to Nadia Cakes) completely failed on basic hospitality, and corporate has totally ghosted me. * The Incident: I bought a canned Spindrift and asked for a cup of ice to dilute it due to my age and immediate physical needs. * The Refusal: Staff flatly refused to give me a cup. I asked for any alternative that wouldn't incur a charge--even their small water cup--just to hold the ice. * No Empathy: The manager admitted he had the discretion to bypass the $0.25 cup fee, but intentionally chose not to help a paying customer. Zero empathy over a quarter. * The Automated Loop: When I complained, a customer service bot replied four separate times claiming they provide a "complimentary water cup." I kept responding that this cup was never offered to me, but I was just trapped in the same automated loop. * Total Silence: I finally tried to reach out to regional management directly to fix this, but I have been met with absolute silence. No response at all. No human accountability from the counter to the corporate office. Unacceptable. I guess Coffee Bean doesn't really need my business.

    BOGO Deals & Ube Delights! I keep coming back to this location for their great deals ~ either BOGO or $3 handcrafted drinks. Totally worth it! My go-to orders are the Ice Blended Dark Chocolate and Hot Mocha. So far, they have been consistently good. Recently, I tried the Ice Blended Ube Coconut Affogato from their Ube Sensation series ~ loved it! The flavors blend really well. Just a heads up: when they are running promos, it gets busy. I've waited over 30 minutes for my order during peak times, and they are sometimes short-staffed. The café is on the smaller side but a decent place to work ~ there are plugs available for laptops and devices. Parking is usually not an issue, and I appreciate the gender-neutral restrooms, which are generally clean.

    Ordered ultimate cold brew ice blended drink and it was great. Service is okay depending on the number of customers. Ambiance is decent. I like coffees here one of my favorites is Hazel nut lattes with oatmilk.

    Second cup of the day! I couldn't resist their buy one get one free promotion for the 4th of July. I love Coffee Bean and their flavors. I ordered the vanilla dry americano iced, and my sister got a caramel frappe. They were both delicious as usual. This place always provides great customer service, and I feel welcome here. Not to mention, they have the best banana bread!

    Coffee lovers, this one's for you!…read more I've officially made it to both Trio Coffee House locations, and they've been consistently amazing every time. Today's order: a Spanish Latte + Banana Matcha, and they were absolutely incredible. Fast service, even with a packed café, cozy vibes, and drinks that actually live up to the hype. This is your sign to treat yourself. 10/10. Already thinking about my next visit.

    My sister-in-law had a pretty disappointing experience at this location today. In a community like…read morethe Antelope Valley, local support really matters, so it's always surprising when a business doesn't seem to value the people who keep it running. Apparently taking a moment to decide what you'd like to order is considered an inconvenience here. The cashier made a gesture implying she needed to hurry up, which felt unnecessarily dismissive especially when someone is simply trying to decide how they'd like to spend their hard-earned money. It's a shame, because local businesses thrive on positive interactions with their customers. Experiences like this make it much easier to understand why so many other coffee spots are opening throughout the AV and gaining loyal support. Needless to say, my family and I will be taking our coffee runs elsewhere moving forward. There are plenty of places in the AV that manage to serve great coffee and treat their customers with courtesy. San Fernando Coffee Co. OVER Trio Coffee House any day of the week.

They usually have great music playing, and you can tell they enjoy working there or at least have a great team atmosphere. The lines can get long during the mornings and at random times throughout the day, but they do a great job keeping things moving by taking orders from your car before you reach the window. Since it's a walk-up/drive-thru location, customers can't go inside the building. The menu is mostly drinks, but they also offer a few pastry options. One thing to keep in mind is their drink sizes aren't the same as most coffee shops. A small is 16 oz, a medium is 24 oz, and a large is 32 oz, so double-check the sizes before ordering. I also like how customizable their drinks are, especially the different soft top flavors. My favorite drink right now is the Cocomo with banana soft top. Definitely worth trying! Overall, it's one of my go-to spots whenever I'm craving coffee. They make my drink the same way every time, and that consistency is one of the reasons I keep coming back.

I always get the iced coffees here and find the Caramelizer to be yummy, but I like trying out the seasonal drinks to when I can. Sometimes there is a long line of cars, other times there is an okay amount. Staff walk up with tablets to take your order and payment to help make the process a little bit faster. So I recommend checking the menu out beforehand or knowing what to get. Staff are always very friendly and give upbeat service here. Looking forward to coming back again

I forgot to ask for her name, but her customer service was top notch from the moment my daughter and I walked in. I asked if she could make a banana matcha with cold foam, and she made it so delicious that I came back later to order a larger one because my daughter loved it too. After finishing our drink, she noticed she had a little extra and instead of wasting it, she kindly gave my daughter a small cup of her own. That completely made my daughter's night and made her so happy. We thanked her and told her how sweet that was. She was warm, thoughtful, and genuinely went above and beyond. Service like that is exactly what keeps customers coming back, and I truly hope we get to see her again. And if you happen to read this review, I just want you to know my daughter was so thankful for the drink you gave her. Your kindness truly meant a lot to her.

I asked the staff member, who insisted it was correct. After leaving, my husband confirmed it wasn't. I returned, showed a picture from your menu, and only then was I offered a redo. By then, I had waited a long time. Once I confronted her again about the difference, she admitted, "Oh, I forgot to add the tea bag, that was my mistake." I was seeking honesty from the beginning, not a fake apology at the end. I hope future interactions are more transparent and accurate for other customers. She needs to be retrained and she needs to take accountability. SMH! Update: I met the store manager, Karen. She was super nice, very friendly, and attentive to my concerns about my review. She mentioned that the staff is fully trained on how to make an Arnold Palmer. She also compensated me with a drink and a burrito, and I'm very thankful. I'm a believer in second chances--one person won't ruin my experience, and I will continue to come back!
