Cafes near Montclair

“One of our favorite spots to have breakfast. Good family atmosphere and excellent service. The owners one is the cook and the waitress is the wife. Love these small type businesses were you get quality and personal attention. Lizzy call you by name, and 99 percent of the tome she already knows your order.“

“great place, love the fresh vegetables“

“Panera Bread has always been one of my favorite places, especially their chicken wild rice soup. It's comforting and delicious. But this review is really about the people, not just the food.

While I was having dinner, my car battery died, and at the same time my phone battery also went dead. I was completely helpless. I asked one person outside for help, but they didn’t respond. Feeling stressed, I went back inside Panera and explained my situation. I had jumper cables with me, but I needed help.

The staff instantly stepped in. One of the team members didn’t ask me to wait or hesitate even for a moment they helped me right away and made sure I was okay and taken care of. Their kindness and calm reassurance meant more to me than they probably realized at that moment.

This Panera Bread truly goes above and beyond their job description to help others. I deeply appreciate the staff who work there for their kindness, compassion, and willingness to help when I really needed it. Thank you for restoring not just my car battery, but my faith in people too.🥰“

“Yesterday, I discovered a hidden treasure in San Dimas - Sweet Savory Cafe. This cafe is known for its delicious cookies that sell out quickly. They offer a variety of international flavors, including Cuban sandwiches, salads, soups, freshly made bread, empanadas, and other bakery items. Some items are not listed on the menu, so you can ask for the Chef's Daily Special. I always look for clean and relaxing cafes where my family can eat, or I can simply sit and enjoy a book. My experience at Sweet Savory Cafe surpassed my experiences at other cafes in Pasadena, Claremont, and Upland. I arrived early and enjoyed warm cookies and bread, which were absolutely delicious. I ordered various items including coffee, soup, breakfast, and bakery items. Despite not being a coffee drinker, I found the coffee to be delicious and memorable. I also tried their Healthy Breakfast Burrito with added bacon, which was customizable and very filling. The Lentil soup had an amazing aroma and taste. I can't believe I didn't know about this cafe before, especially since I work in the city! For those new to the cafe, you can order through Uber Eats, Grubhub, Postmates, and DoorDash. Visit their website at SweetSavoryCafe.com or call them at 909-305-9738. Their menu includes breakfast burritos, breakfast sandwiches, avocado toasts, old fashioned oatmeal, and build-your-own scramblers. For lunch and dinner, they offer sandwiches, Paninis, burritos, Cuban sandwiches, veggie sandwiches, wraps, salads, combos, kids' menu, bagels, and more. They even have Keto-friendly San Dimas Barbershop Tacos! There is parking available in the front and back, and plenty of seating inside and outside. If you have a large party, they can accommodate you by pushing tables together. The atmosphere is peaceful, making it a wonderful place to read a book or enjoy a meal with family. They also offer freshly made orange juice, and all their sandwiches are made with their own bread. I tried a new flavor of Sweet & Savory bread and found it to be very delicious. I added cream cheese to it yesterday and tried it with butter today. This is definitely my new go-to place for food. I appreciate the cleanliness of the cafe and the fact that it's open early on for breakfast including Saturday and Sunday. I was even able to order all these items on a Saturday at 7AM. Thank you to the owner, Haydee, and her family for providing such a great first experience. I'm now a loyal customer!“

“Stopped by for the first time this morning to have breakfast. Let me tell you this place was goood!!! The servings for the Paul’s Platter, I felt like I was on Man vs Food. The food was great, service was just as good. I will definitely be back.“

“Friendly service. Great coffee and delicious pastry. My 1st time here, I'll be back.“

“best breakfast in Riverside County, worth the short wait!“

“This place was so great, I ended up getting three drinks tonight. Favorite was definitely their house coffee, hazelnut flavor. Customer service was great too. I really liked the music and ambiance there. I'll definitely be back soon.“

“We love Rail Side and have been going there for years. The Arecely’s PB Mocha (I like mine blended) is my favorite along with the wake-up #1 on GF bread. Everyone is so friendly (including the owners who are also rooted in the community) and they have live music on the weekend. Great spot that has so much small town charm.“

“Our 2nd dinner here, and we'll continue to come back. First time was Valentine's Day meal that we loved so much that we took our college-age children and their significant others for a special birthday meal. They were impressed with the food, the presentation, the wine, the service, the view, all of it, and said they plan to also come back for special event meals. Hidden gem! Menu selections are creative, memorable, delicious and priced better than any other place around that serves food of this level. Service is friendly and attentive. Cal Poly Pomona students do the work at RKR, and it feels good to support the cause. Usually only open part of the year when college courses are in session, but we're excited to hear from our server that there are plans to expand service to summer also. A professor from the college was on hand to oversee the experience and was delightful & gracious to talk with and learn from (her knowledge of wine is extensive & informative).“

“This place has amazing coffee and matcha varieties, and it’s the only place I’ve found near by that has the strong matcha flavor I like, like Airoma from Vegas. It has a real coffee shop vibe with people actually conversating. The only issue my husband was unhappy with is the drinks are on the smaller side for the price and also they don’t let you pay with cash. Their spinach soufflé is delicious, but the lemon loaf was dry. The staff is welcoming though and make the drinks quickly, so the quality is there.“

“See Yelp review. I plan on going back as much as possible!“

“We ordered 2 heart shaped cheesecakes for a small wedding and everyone could not get enough. The baker was soooo friendly and professional and accommodating. Honestly, yall are underpriced because I would’ve paid at least twice what we paid. Seriously, I don’t even like cheesecake that much but these ones were so delicious and beautiful. Thank you!!!!“

“Great place for protein shakes and healthy drinks! Everything tastes fresh and delicious, and you can tell they use quality ingredients. The staff is friendly and always helpful with recommendations. Perfect spot after a workout or when you need a quick, healthy boost. Highly recommend!“

“Great local coffee shop. The people are great and the coffee is even better!“

“Good respectful environment here the cashier is very polite and patient with our order. I combined the passion fruit tea with peach and black tea, y mira, 👌 it's made perfectly.They have that good matcha here too. It tastes like matcha not too grassy because they add the perfect amount and mix it correctly. The popcorn chicken is a must a tiny bit spicy but my daughter loved it too much she ate everything. Went home and paired those leftoves with some pancakes and syrup. The gift that keeps on giving. The fried chicken wings with, i believe it was thai sauce, were delicious as well. Try this place they add the love here.“

“Everyone raved about the Halo halo... ordered and drove far for it. It wasnt that great and there was no sweetness to it at all.. not even the slight sweetness to it. Not even the scoop of ice cream helped the blandness..truly... its so bland and i say this in the most constructive way to give it attention i knew it wasnt me because i ordered a couple.... when I tell you theres literally no level of sweetness at all I mean it. the milk was not your typical filipino halo halo it was only regular milk instead of evaporated milk. A missed opportunity.“

“The specialty coffees are all amazingly delicious and made with love. So are their bomby homemade cookies which are my weakness! The coffee is made with the best filtered water. You can just taste the difference. The staff is really sweet and there's always a neat selection of gifts and things to look at.“

“I love the whole building itself to come and work for free. The cafe creates a welcoming and warm experience to come rest with a friend, read , or meet for work. Staff is kind and welcoming. When staff feels welcoming I think it brings the stress down. Almost like you want to feel when you go to a friend’s house. Relaxed.“

“My daughter and I enjoyed our very delicious lunch and drinks. She had the breakfast burrito and milk tea with boba and I had the chicken pesto panini with iced green tea. We highly recommend and will be back for the crepes and waffles…“

“This place is a must stop if you are within an hour’s drive. Fire Bunny is sweet milk drink with creme brûlée topping. And Thai iced tea soft serve served with fresh hot boba?! Yes please!“

“Robbie, the owner, has helped me two times now. He was very hospitable and makes you feel welcome. The place is bright, clean and comfortable. The food is top quality, fresh and very tasty. My mom and l tried the
Avocado smash with crab and it was very flavorful. I highly recommend it. The coffee is very good and smoothe not bitter. You won't be disappointed. Thank you Robbie and friendly staff!“

“A variety of iced or hot mochas and lattes like matcha, horchata even raspberry lattes. Delicious and crisp fresh baked french rolls, baguettes and postres. Loved my breakfast sandwich chapin with black beans, eggs, red/green bell peppers, tomatoes, onion, fresh baked and crisp bolillo. Super clean. Seating inside and outside perfect for meet ups. Customer service is always excellent. This is the spot for me for awhile. Peaceful and vibrant vibes!“

“Palermo Bakery has everything you need to feel like you are in Italy! From the welcoming staff the moment you walk through the door, to the decor, to the EXTENSIVE bakery items (that are beyond delicious!), to the pizza, to the coffee, there is truly not a bad choice on the menu! They even have a window to the kitchen so you (or your kids) can watch the magic happen in the kitchen. The first time I went there I was reminded of my Dad and my time in Palermo. They are also very COVID safe in case you are worried about venturing out and about. I would recommend the bakery to anyone needing a slice of Italy in Southern California! ❤️🇮🇹💚“

“Julian rocks! He professionally helped this senior navigate the 7Leaves application and informed me of the different drink varieties. The House Coffee is my go to beverage and it was delivered in less than 5 minutes. We'll be back and try some of Julian's recommendations the next time we come here.“

“best Indian food in our area highly recommended.“

“Delicious and fresh. All dishes made to order“

“awesome halohalo and cozy atmosphere“

“I had the daily special today: Japanese Chicken Katsu Curry with a side of vegetable egg rolls. It was so good! Their smoothies are also excellent. Very friendly and prompt staff. Thank you!EDIT: this review was written prior to the change in ownership that occurred in 2024.“

“I love that they opened a branch near by and allow me to bring my dog to take my order!! I come very often. My husband loves their scones and I love their new chewy Dubai cookie and it’s at an extremely reasonable price which I appreciate considering how unique the pastries are! It’s a nice treat during times like this. We used to drive all the way to temple city! Hope this place stays“

“Love this tea shop ! All the drinks are delicious - consistently . Love anything with sea foam ❤️ only one drink you can get with soy and that’s the matcha - everything else is pre made with dairy . Except if you get any teas without sea foam !“

“Great coffee. Way better than Starbucks and Dunkin. Please make your way to the east coast!“

“The staff was very polite and patient, th atmosphere is pretty quiet but also pretty loud(i.e. not enough to be so loud but also not dead quiet). The food was good, though, some foods can use maybe a bit more of this and that. Nonetheless, it was a good experience for me at Panera Bread“

“This place was great, Crepes and Juice where tasty.“

“Great tasting food in North Diamond Bar Freshly made fruit & veggie juices & smoothies Kid approved!“

“Great place. Upon entering, we liked the decor and atmosphere. Extremely clean, nicely set up, good amount of space. Service was good, food was absolutely delicious and plentiful. Lots of options for meals to order but also ready made options to take out.“

“Always bomb good. Never go wrong“

“They have real glass coffee cups to use on premises.“

“Nosy neighbors has a recipe for success.
Service has gone down since moving to a new spot.
They've expanded their menu and clientelle, so yes it's more busy.
Still, coming to this place is a treat to myself. The items are not cheap (Thanks inflation), so giving me my coffee and donuts with a smile goes a long way.

Maybe I just came on a not so good day.
Anyways, this place is a must try if you are down in claremont.
I've been coming here since they first opened their little spot across the park and i'll coming here until I die, probs....“

“Holiday shop ❤️💕🥳🎊🎉🥳😎 Halloween trick-or-treat“

“I’m sitting in this restaurant right now having just finished a Breakfast Burrito and Biscuit and Gravy. Both were amazing, unexpectedly savory and delicious. I will definitely be back to try other things on their menu. If you’re in San Dimas do not miss this place.“

“This boba place used to be Tea Party Boba and Snacks. Uranus 27 boba tea is a great place to hang and kill time while enjoying your boba. They have multiple charging stations and cute displays. Nice ambiance inside and spacious! They offer snacks to munch too.“

“Cute breakfast and coffee spot in Claremont village. There is an outdoor table but if that is taken there is a ton of small shaded parks with nice seating nearby. I grabbed a table out front of city hall a half block away. The service is awesome, she came outside to take my order and payment since I had my dog with me. My egg and cheese and onion breakfast bagel was tasty.“

“I recently visited Mesita Coffeehouse and it was such a cute little spot! The Spanish latte was absolutely amazing—10/10. I also tried the fruit danish and it did not disappoint. Everything tasted fresh and delicious. Even though it was a 45-minute drive for me, it was totally worth it. I really enjoyed my visit and will definitely be making that trip again! ☕✨“

“Nick just happened to be working and was amazing! Wish we lived closer… it’s a little far to drive from Tucson… Hope to stop by on our next journey into Cali!“

“I needed a quick healthy meal to go and this place hit the spot!

It's in the strip mall with TJs so be prepared for a crazy parking lot at all times.... But there's plenty of space in the back.

This place is super casual and most people take their food to go. You order at the counter after perusing their extensive menu. Lots of smoothies to pick from (a little on the expensive side), loads of sandwiches and salads.

As a pescatarian I really appreciated that they had a tuna option and it was not mayo heavy (it was labeled spicy and was indeed spicy!). The salad was perfect - loads of fresh veggies and very affordable.

So happy to have found this place and will put it on my regular rotation when I come to town!“
