    WM Latte & 2 pouches of roasted coffee in natural & washed process. Review on this forthcoming, soon.
    Caroll P.

    TRO is debatably my favorite latte (usually hot but also their iced!) around. Their coffee beans have a unique flavor that makes the drinks extra enjoyable. The flavor is full, smooth, and that extra, subtle flavor that really draws me in! The pastries are delicious. Also a plus. The coffee shop is co-op, alongside a workspace hub. So the space is very open, with various seating available and it's fairly quiet, because they also do not play music. This makes for a wonderful spot to converse. The baristas are all wonderful. Quiet, but welcoming, and focus on every single drink they craft, just one at a time. Which is the best news for the flavor, presentation and energy for your drink. But don't stop here thinking it's a drive thru, it's where you stop, wait patiently for your delicious drink and stay and converse with some of your favorite people. It's a quality time type environment, which I rather enjoy. That's how coffee should be had, with time, mindful, and great company and conversation. TRO is one of my top favorite hidden gem coffee spots in the south land ^_^

    TRO Coffee is great because it is inside a public office space. This space is open to the public to do work at. TRO itself is small and has a few coffee and food options. The barista working there was great! She was super sweet and very knowledgeable about the drink offerings. I opted for a lavender and vanilla latte with macadamia nut milk and my tried a honey and cayenne latte. Both were good! I would recommend coming here if you are looking for a place to work.

    Went in at 9am, got a hot latte, wanted something to eat but they said they didn't have any food yet. ??? Latte was okay. I went in on Wednesday morning, I was the only one there, stayed for an hour. Nothing special to me. Probably won't come back.

    Latte and Americano

    I went there for the first time, their drinks were good, we just ordered the basic latte (no syrups) and ice americano) it's really nice of them to have free milk substitute for dietary restrictions but because of that, a regular whole milk latte is charged $7. I don't think that's fair for people who orders whole milk just so they have a better marketing branding.

    I met up with a coworker here for work since we try to connect in person once or twice a month while working remotely. We chose this coffee shop as a halfway point. The coffee was delicious--I ordered the brown sugar spice latte cold, but it was served hot. Fortunately, it still tasted great! However, I was a bit disappointed by the limited one hour of free Wi-Fi. After that, internet access costs $30 per person for the day, which was a letdown, especially considering the positive reviews. This could have been a great spot for regular meet-ups, but the Wi-Fi policy makes it less ideal for remote work.

    TRO coffee replaced the reverse orangutan at Union cowork in Glendora. Their menu is sweet and simple with some seasonal options. Like any coffee shop they have regular and decaf espresso available for their lattes. I absolutely love how they have a separate menu of sweetener/flavoring and dairy options. I got the pumpkin spiced latte which honestly did not taste very pumpkiny or spiced? I was a little confused because it tasted like your average vanilla latte. The worker there though was super super nice and patient. They have pastries available depending on the day and time. They also sell containers of oat milk you can buy and take home. Guest wifi is also available

    The coffee was okay (drip). The space doesn't fit. Most of the chairs are not comfortable. Feels like an office space, which the building really is. Service was friendly.

    I've been coming to this coffee shop for about 4 years, and I absolutely love their drinks. One of the best things is that they make most of their syrups in-house, and they're not overly sweet--just perfect. I recently tried the Eggnog Latte, and it did not disappoint. Also, the TRO coffee beans are a must-have if you're a true coffee connoisseur. Highly recommend!

    Nice people but I found a roach on counter. So no coffee for me. I don't like roach on my coffee sry

    Minimalist coffee shop next to a work space. Got an iced oat milk latte and a chocolate chip cookie. The cookie was SOO good - hard and chewy with the perfect amount of chocolate chips. Coffee was solid too. Not too many places to sit though as a coffee shop guest. Would come back if I'm in the area

    Vanilla latte with macadamia milk
    Mirrella B.

    I stopped by in the late afternoon a couple of days ago. The parking here is a bit limited. They were also out of most of their milk alternatives but had a wide selection of syrups! I opted for an iced vanilla latte with macadamia nut milk. The barista recommended the drink iced for this type of milk. The ice cubes were on the large side, which was cool and different. The latte was good. It gave me the energy to power through the last hours of work and energy to work on a project. It may have also kept me up longer than expected, but that's what happens to me when I have coffee or tea late in the day. LOL. The inside of the shop is big. There are offices in the back and in the upper floor or section. There are different seating options available as well. I'm looking forward to my next cup of coffee!

    Iced matcha latte.
    Anna B.

    Used to be The Reverse Orangutan coffee shop. First time visiting since they changed owners and the business name. TRO Coffee has delicious, flavorful iced matcha lattes. Customer service from the barista was amiable and chill. The ambience is the same as the previous coffee shop, trendy/modern vibe. I will definitely be back to try more of their menu and specialty drinks, including their pastries.

    Entry side office

    If I want the most unique coffee shop, then this is the place worth visiting. At a very small spot, this coffee shop has the most creative drink, like baklava latte. It's price is reasonable, compared to Starbucks. Baristas are excellent with details. In addition, the place is a nice spot to chill or hangout for nice cup of tea or coffee. If you want something new, then stop for local coffee shop. There are also some merchandise to get if you want to support their business.

It was moderately busy but many folks were primarily ordering and going. There were plenty of indoor seating and a few right in front.

I was able to grab a window seat with great natural lighting to enjoy the coffee. They have an outlet nearby, so I felt this could have been a great study spot.

And this place qualifies. Had the champurrado latte and it was excellent -- smooth, balanced, and actually tastes good and not overly milky and Not overly sweet, not burnt, not trying too hard. Just well-executed. The space is clean, calm, and feels intentional -- which already puts it ahead of most spots in the San Gabriel Valley. Outside of a few places in Pasadena, real specialty coffee is rare around here, so this was a pleasant surprise. They also sell quality beans to go (huge plus), and the staff is friendly enough -- maybe a little edge here and there, but that's basically part of the modern coffee shop experience at this point. I came for the coffee anyway. Bottom line: this is one of the very few places in the area actually doing it right. I'll happily keep coming back to -- Elite badge or not.
