I met a friend on July 4th for a meeting here at Stell Coffee & Tea Co. We were able to get a table inside. I ordered a Jalapeño Turkey Sandwich on Wheat Bread and Iced Coconut Coffee. The sandwich was well made with clean & fresh veggies, and having it toasted made this feel like like I made it at home. It was busy, but the cashiers kept moving the line. I also noticed they bring out the food to the table, this is a very good way for the experience of us that like talking a lot to our friends and we don't want get up from our seat. Places like Panera no longer make those gestures to customer service, and that's why this place earned five stars for me. So today is 7/5, and I came back because I wanted to try the BLT Sandwich on Wheat Bread, and I ordered a Vegan Thumbprint Cookie. Wow, delicious while I enjoy it outside. I also want to say that the to go packaging is great, easy to grab. As a new customer who came 2 times in a row, I am glad to see the expansion coming for this spot. I will definitely come more often and either enjoy my meal outside or inside. Thanks to the crew who helped me and for the prep team in the kitchen. Keep it up!

I'm a little disappointed because the first time I went in there. The service was great and The lattes were above average. But the second time the service was only adequate and the latte was below average. Maybe I hit them on a bad day. They have a nice bakery, they're baked.Items are very good. The seating area is nice but dated but it works. The kitchen looks old but that doesn't stop them from preparing great bakery items. It's likely the reason that I didn't rate them higher, is because they set the bar pretty high the first time I went in there, and i was expecting to get the same great service and drink. Expectations lost. FYI I'm a previous multiple coffeehouse/cafe franchise owner.

The Breakfast b.l.t.e was delicious a great way to start the day. The Redlands Mocha hot with almond milk had a light orange flavor, I would recommend trying. Take time to enjoy the lovely atmosphere this cafe has created.

Stell Coffee & Tea has become my favorite coffee shop in Redlands. I often travel between Tucson an SF and this is my must stop shop along the way!! Stell is a wonderful, cute cafe with an excellent vibe. It serves up a wonderful latte with a touch of honey that makes my day. I have paired coffee with a number of different perfect breakfast sandwiches. I guarantee that I will be back on my next trip and recommend if you’re in need of a great coffee experience you must make time to stop in.

I love, love, love this place! Best biggest salads around for great price! Great large selection of options! Home made soups, cookies and other ingredients that are delicious! Gluten free and vegan options available. And also have beer and tea! I just wish the eggs were able to be fried or scrambled instead of just hard boiled. Otherwise it is my go to coffee place! I love it here! Music always great! Ambiance is wonderful, service is always so friendly and some even remember me making it feel so personal! Highly recommend!

I always judge a coffee shop on how they make simple drinks, like a latte. And this place made me an excellent latte! Cute atmosphere, although it was a little loud. Fun selection of pastries, salads, and sandwiches. Location is a little odd but there’s tons of parking and it’s very low key. Interesting list of beers. There’s a bit of a wait but the baristas are efficient and good at what they do. It’s on the higher side of price ranges but the drinks and food are excellent.

I recently visited this coffee shop and had a mixed experience. The Mexican mocha was bland and lacked flavor, but the honey & cinnamon latte and the double chocolate cookies were enjoyable. The space is roomy which means you can go work out of here. They also serve craft beer and other food choices. Overall ok experience!

My new favorite sandwich spot! I already loved their coffee, cookies (specially the s’mores) and I finally decided to try a sandwich. I had the chipotle ranch turkey with rosemary bread and boy did it exceed my expectations. The thick slices of bacon added texture and salt. The dressing and avocado added great creaminess. I can’t wait to have this again.
