"Located in the TownGate Promenade on Day St and Campus Pkwy near Costco with plenty of parking, no drive-thru. While this location is smaller than the East Riverside location I usually visit, I love that they offer the same menu. I ordered a hot Vanilla Caffé Latte and the Pastrami & Swiss sandwich. The latte was perfectly crafted with an ideal espresso-to-milk ratio and just the right amount of foam. The sandwich, served on a rye swirl loaf, was delicious...the pastrami, spicy brown mustard, and Swiss cheese were perfectly balanced, though it was toasted a bit too long for my preference, resulting in a crunchy rather than soft texture. I skipped the cupcake this time to balance out the sweet latte. Service was fast, friendly, and efficient, and there is indoor seating available. Overall, a great experience; I’ll definitely be back to try more treats."

"During a recent visit to Moreno Valley, we sought a highly-rated coffee establishment and discovered The Cupcake & Espresso Bar. Although the initial interaction with the counter staff was not friendly or informative regarding coffee selections as desired, we located a supplementary menu near the pastry display, which detailed additional coffee flavor options not listed on the primary menu. Given my preference for banana-flavored beverages, I ordered a Banana Mocha with an extra serving of banana powder, and the result was exceptional. Consequently, I highly recommend this establishment to individuals who appreciate banana-flavored coffee. While we only sampled the coffee, the pastries appeared visually appealing."

"I came to check out this place because of their Tiktoks. The videos are fun and it seems like everyone enjoys their job there so I had to check them out. We ordered the Creme Brulee Latte and Toasted Marshmallow, plus the banana pudding and maple donut. Everything was DELICIOUS 🤩 Shout out to the girly pop who makes the Tiktok videos, definitely returning ASAP!"

"I love this coffee shop! For coffees, I've had the Café de Olla cold brew, Biscoff cream cold brew, regular hot coffee, and cafe latte. For the food and pastries, I've had the chipotle cheddar pastrami sandwich, french toast breakfast sandwich, chorizo & egg sandwich, the cupcakes, brownies, and croissants. The shopping center is always so busy so it can be hard to find parking but it's nice and small inside with about 5 tables."

"If you're looking for a charming spot to satisfy your coffee cravings and indulge in some delightful pastries, the Cupcake and Espresso Bar is an absolute gem! This cute coffee shop has a warm and inviting atmosphere that makes it the perfect place to relax or catch up with friends. The menu is packed with an enticing variety of breakfast sandwiches and pastries, ensuring that there's something for everyone. I had the pleasure of trying the red velvet cream cold brew, which was a unique and delicious twist on a classic favorite. The flavor was rich and perfectly balanced, making it a standout choice. But the real highlight for me was the jalapeño cheddar pastry. It was wonderfully tasty, with just the right amount of spice to keep things interesting. The combination of flavors was simply delicious! Plus, the ample parking available makes it easy to pop in for a quick bite or to settle in for a leisurely morning. Overall, the Cupcake and Espresso Bar is a must-visit for anyone who loves great coffee and delectable treats. I can't wait to go back and try more of their unique offerings!"
