Rad coffe has great coffe and a punk rock esthetic. The coffee is great on its own. Still, they have plenty of blended and seasonal drinks. Of course, you can get something with an irresponsible amount of caffeine. Which I am always a fan of.

I usually get their cold brew coffee, but this time, I ordered the iced black tea, which was mild but decent. The Green tea has more flavor.

I love their sea salt caramel cold brew, today I was craving it hot, so I got their latte version…very yummy!

I'm not exactly sure of the name of the beverage we ordered but i do know it had their cold brew which was blended with cookies and cream.it wasn't as strong as i expected or hoped but we knew this place has their drinks a little on the sweeter side with the toppings, whipped cream etc.so we opted for this one and it was still sweet but not overwhelming which was good for us.i will advise that there was no seating availability whatsoever so be aware of that.the shop is in a pretty good location and i hope they stick around because i'm sure it can become pretty popular and bring some foot traffic.

Coffee is good, only thing to prep for is this place forint have any seats, inside nor outside and when I went there was no restroom access. Cashier was a bit pushy but the lady with bangs was very sweet and translated for an older gentleman.

Welcoming, friendly wait staff. The coffee is exceptional! I just had my first decaf vanilla latte from RAD and it is soooo good. So happy I gave it a try. The barista gave me just one shot of vanilla which is what I wanted. It adds a little flavor but that rich, nutty, decaf still dominates the overall brew.

Nothing like the Upland location unfortunately. Unfriendly staff, walked in with no other customers there and wasn’t greeted or asked if I needed anything. Bad location in a sketchy shopping center. Shame.

I really would like to see where this place goes as I like the atmosphere. But, I went there yesterday to place an order. The person at the counter was super friendly and nice however, the person who made my drink was extremely rude. I’m not sure why as, after I ordered, I walked to the walls to look at all the cool decor. The person didn’t call my name, as I tried a couple of times to say “Thank you” she just rudely ignored me. Will I go back? Yes. Weird I know.

Rad Coffee is a punk rock themed coffee spot near downtown Riverside. They have a solid selection of regular coffee and delicious blended coffee drinks. The staff was super friendly and the drinks came out quickly. They just opened, and the decor is sparse. I’m hoping that they get some nice bar tops and seating, and that the artwork becomes more permanent. The photo is of their large “Cookies & Scream. ”

I was late to work due my barista having conversations with outside friends instead of making my coffee.) : I had to ask another barista about my drink and they had to check in with them about it.

Went during their soft opening. The place has good coffee, friendly employees, and reasonable prices.

Already with their soft opening parking has been an issue.

Currently they don't have any chairs or tables, hoping that changes once they officially open.

The place can be hard to spot from the street but once you're in the shopping center you can easily spot the location.

Same great coffee and friendly service at this new location. Only issue I see is that parking is limited. Otherwise come by and enjoy some delicious caffeination!
