Tea Coffee Exchange - Lake Arrowhead

I was treated kindly as I ordered a crepe. It was my mistake and I did not ask “are the strawberries accompanying the nutella crepe fresh or jarred?” I really was hoping they were fresh, made more sense to me at the time, turned out to be packaged strawberries in a syrup. For someone like me, that just will not work. I dumped my crepe because it just tasted nasty, I was hoping for something simple, instead it was just unappealing. Next visit I specifically ordered without strawberries as to avoid additional money lost for an unfed me and it was decent. Vibe is nice. Can get busy. I was there at slow times so I cannot comment on the busy season wait time. Also I was served with a smile by the cashier so that part was decent too. Will be back to try beverages and pastries. ps people, this is NOT starbucks, stop having unreasonable expectations and stop calling employees “clueless” etc… 5 because these girls are running this business without anyone’s help, so please stop telling them “it looked different the last time I got”

This was a cute place with good outdoor seating and umbrellas! i got the chai frap with oat milk and it was super flavorful and really good smooth consistency, probably one of my fave chai fraps i’ve gotten in a while. i also got the snickerdoodle cookie which was a nice chewy light snickerdoodle flavor. lastly, i got the strawberries and nutella crepe which wasn’t too bad, but the strawberries were a little off tasting and made me think they were a little too ripe and starting to go bad. ill definitely still come back for the frap and cookie though!!

Wish they had cold brew but their espresso, coffee and tea game was on point. So many different hot teas and a bunch of loose leaf tea in bags to take home with you. ?

Ordered an iced latte, smoothie, and coffee cake. The 2 young ladies working seemed annoyed that they actually had to take and make our order. No smile, no expression or conversation whatsoever. The iced latte and smoothie were average. The coffee cake was served frozen. No gluten-free options! The songs on the speakers were literally dropping the F bomb for the 2 songs we had to wait for our order. Not a great impression of this coffee shop. Will not be going back.

Coffee was great. T-shirts and sweatshirts were priced reasonably. The strawberry croissant and cremé brulee bar were to die for. Variety of teas, gifts, books to read, and GELATO!!!
