Lovely cafe in Riverside, delicious coffee and a nice urban vibe with outdoor spaces for the nicer seasons or even sunny winter days. It’s located right on the East Bay bike path in Riverside Square. Great place to meet a friend for good coffee and nice atmosphere especially on a sunny day. You can also get a pastry here, I have only had coffee but I have been tempted to try, maybe next time:)

Great location and friendly, knowledgeable staff. I’m sold on their nitro brew after trying the iced brew flight. Nitro brew is smooth and full of flavor. Love this place for their food and beverage choices. A Riverside gem not to be missed.

My favorite spot, especially in the Fall, when you can sit outdoors right alongside the bike path. Their coffee is consistently delicious, with some seasonal drinks on rotation. This fall, it was a Harvest Latte with maple syrup and a few spices that make for a perfect companion to sitting in their outdoor area with a book. Never too crowded & I’m almost always guaranteed to find a seat.

I love borealis, it’s my neighborhood coffee shop. Such a gem to have in Riverside. I love their tea selection and they also have a great food selection. Their home made biscuits for breakfast sandwiches is so good. I also enjoy their lunch sandwiches.

OMG. I just had the best vegan sandwich of my life. It was paired with an amazing decaf mocha macadamia nut latte. Everything was so flavorful. The staff were so awesome & helped with my dairy-free questions. Outdoor dining. Lunch bliss!!!! LOVE this place-first visit and I just became a regular!
