Coffeecito House

Richard Sanchez a month ago

While serving jury duty in downtown Riverside, I took the short 10-minute walk from the County Courthouse to Coffeecito House. The café is clean, well-kept, and has a polished appearance that makes for a pleasant first impression. I ordered a caramel latte and an apple turnover. The latte was good enough, but fairly average as coffee goes. The apple turnover was also just okay—I honestly prefer the baked goods from Costco over what was offered here. The baristas were pleasant, courteous, and efficient, which I appreciated. Seating inside consists mostly of upright tables and chairs, so if you're looking for comfortable lounge seating to relax in for an extended period, this probably isn't the place. Overall, Coffeecito House is a solid stop if you're in the area and need a coffee break, especially given its convenient location near the courthouse. That said, nothing I tried really stood out enough to make it a destination. If I'm selected for jury duty again, I'll likely spend my breaks comparing some of the other coffee shops in downtown Riverside.

This is one of the last true coffee houses and if you’re a coffee person then you can’t afford to miss out on this gem. A two story house that has been converted into a cool space where people can come in groups and drink coffee. I ordered a seasonal drink which was good and a house drip coffee. Now if you’re looking for dine in service well this place only has it when you order their drip. All other coffee drinks are in to go containers which seems to be the trend. The service was good from the cashier but not the other employee. The place has an outdoor patio if there’s no room inside. The line seems long but moves quickly. My favorite spot is the upstairs and it feels so homely. So if you’re looking for a coffee place that still has this type of vibe then definitely check this place out if possible.

Food is unmodifiable. Their food is premade and can’t make changes to it. Their burritos come with cheese and you can’t change that. Most coffee shops understand there are people who are lactose intolerant, which is why they offer milk alternatives. However, they did not factor that in when making burritos. The burritos taste like frozen Tina’s burritos. Nothing special about the service. You order, you get your food/coffee. Nothing else to it. No one came out to clean tables. No one came to hand out our food and there were 3 employees with no line. Obviously no cook, the food is premade so they aren’t back up with food orders. Ended up getting a refund because I shouldn’t pay $12-$15 for a reheated burrito.

The coffee was great and the atmosphere is perfect if you want to hang out with a friend or your partner to just chat. I loved the decor and the seats were comfortable too

First time at this coffeehouse, and the coffee I had was the churro coffee blended and it was really good. My daughter ordered the Cuban sandwich and it was 10/10. We had to order another one it was so good. The atmosphere was chill, and relaxing. Will be back and try more items from the menu.
