It's been almost a month and I'm STILL thinking about the longanisa breakfast burrito I got from here. Elk Grove is far from me but might need to run it back just for this iced coffee and burrito combo. The latte with sea salt crème topper was top tier, so freaking amazing! Ordered from a kiosk and they push out the orders pretty fast. Big open clean space. If I lived in Elk Grove I fear this place would see me EVERYDAY! read more

Seating: Indoor with AC Parking: Free and plenty of space in the complex Vibe: Urban industrial feel with a large mural wall. It's noticeably smaller than their main Midtown location, but still comfortable. They offer a selection of snacks for purchase, including cookies (ube, pandan), muffins, burritos, and quiches. Quiches can be heated upon request. Popular drinks: "1987" (iced) and Vietnamese Hazelnut. I tried the 1987 drink. For my taste, it was a bit too creamy and on the sweeter side. Service: Quick and efficient. You can either use the self-serve station or order/pay directly at the counter. read more

Dropped in to grab a quick drink while running errands. The barista was friendly and we asked what their most popular drink was. She named a few and we selected the 1987 and I had to try their Mexican Mocha. The atmosphere is cozy, relaxed and slightly dim. Making it a great location to catch up with a friend or work remotely. I saw a few patrons on their laptops, and the noise level was just fine for them. My daughter wasn't particularly impressed with the 1987 as she prefers a sweeter flavor. We ended up swapping drinks so I got try try both. Haha Overall it was a pleasant experience. read more

Good vibe, good food, and good coffee. A nice place to meet up with friends and family. We enjoyed pacific island style breakfast of loco moco and longanisa breakfast sando.

Back again in Elk Grove and can't miss an opportunity to get a drink and baked goods from 18 Grams Coffee & Tea! Arrived 15 minutes before they closed, was able to get a chocolate chai with oat milk (my favorite), blueberry muffin and cookies. So delicious! There is no chocolate chai better than the one here. Absolutely love it and worth the two hours drive! read more

I'm a creature of habit a lot of the time and when I find something I like it's hard to tear me away from it. At 18 Grams that habit is ordering their 1987, I love this iced coffee. It is hazelnut coffee, sweetened condensed milk, that's topped with sea salt cream and ibarra chocolate. It's strong and has a good sweetness level for me. This location is on the smaller side, but is cozy and a good place to meet with a friend or two or get some work done. The staff is always friendly and they're pretty quick. On my last visit the drinks came out so quick. Parking can be hard when the plaza is busy- on my recent visit I parked further down the plaza and walked over. I like stopping in whenever I'm in the area. read more

My weakness. The ube cookie!!! If they have any GET ONE! The staff is always super nice here. Decent amount of seating and done outdoor seats also.

Parking in the shared parking lot. Located between Crunch fitness and The pop popcorn shop. Quaint inside. You can either use the kiosk to order or the staff. Plenty of tables to study or work independently with plus readily available. Tried the iced London for tea and the iced Vietnamese hazelnut coffee. Both were very good. Not too sweet, balanced flavor. Would definitely come back to try more of their concoctions. read more

So I might be doing myself a disservice by sharing that they've got some of the best breakfast burritos here...there are days where I come a bit later in the morning eager for a bacon breakfast burrito and they've sold out. My first few times here, I came for the coffee and was impressed. I like their options and the coffee is quite good. After a few visits, I noticed they offered some bagels and breakfast burritos. I ordered a bacon breakfast burrito with red sauce and I haven't looked back since. Whenever I come here in the mornings, I order a coffee and whether I'm hungry or not, I'm getting the burrito if it's available. The times they've sold out of burritos for the day, I won't lie I'm pretty bummed. The breakfast burrito isn't the biggest but for me it's definitely very filling. There's a few small tables inside that people often use to work or do homework. It's a bit of a smaller coffee shop but feels cozy and a good spot to hang out for a little while you enjoy your coffee. My only wish was if this coffee shop was a bit bigger with more tables and chairs, but overall great spot. read more

Today I ordered a Hazelnut Vietnamese coffee and pandan cookies. The coffee here is always flavorful, balanced, and strong. The pandan cookies were sweet with a hint of coconut. Their ube cookies and burritos are also very good. The workers are polite, detailed, and efficient. I enjoy coming here with my friends and family. I also like to do some reading when I come here alone. I only have great things to say about 18 Grams. The coffee shop is well lit and the music is never too loud. The only thing is that they are very popular. So please be patient if there is a line. This place is must see if you enjoy coffee and are in Elk Grove. read more

Went to 18 grams because we needed some coffee and were pleasantly surprised! The inside was clean and well decorated with lots of dark wood everywhere. The ambiance is that of a cafe where they welcome in people to sit and even do work! (saw some people on their laptops). They took our orders quickly and the drinks and pastry came out fairly quick. I got a coffee with sea salt cream and my gf got an ube latte. We saw that they had a coconut pandan cookie that looked pretty tasty so we added that to our order. The drinks tasted great and wasn't just sugar. The cookie was also fantastic and its portion size was perfect as a snack for both my gf and me. I'd recommend this place for anyone who is a coffee lover! Check it out read more

Great ambiance and food. We stopped by on a Sunday morning and it was pretty quiet, it's a nice setting to do remote work or hang out to chat. Lots of seating! You can order on their touch screen or someone can help you at the counter. We got a blueberry muffin, vegan and bacon breakfast burritos and several drinks. Breakfast burrito is small but mighty - I feel like the size is definitely worth the price and tasted great!! I wish I had their recipe. Drinks were also a hit! I'm not a super strong coffee lover, and the ube latte was a perfect amount of coffee and sweet. They have a variety of teas and coffee drinks so there are a lot of options to choose from. read more

I ordered the 1987 (House special) it was a Iced Hazelnut coffee sweeten with condensed milk and topped off with sea salt cream and chocolate. Great coffee flavor and just the right amount of sweetness. I also ordered a banana bread that had chocolate chips and walnuts. It was warmed up and a great pairing with the coffee! The service was friendly and they offered their recommendations! The ambiance is cozy with exposed brick walls and a quiet space to work. I'll definitely come back to try their other treats! read more

This is my second time visiting 18 Grams. My first visit a few months ago I ordered one of the popular coffee drinks..it was a pricey drink and not very memorable. I decided to try 18 Grams again, this time I opted for a Matcha drink. I ordered the Strawberry Matcha and I was again underwhelmed. The drink was a little more than $7 and I didn't even drink half of it. It just was not that great. I will admit, I'm not a huge Matcha fan, I thought getting a strawberry matcha would help me fall in love with Matcha. I'm not giving up on Matcha just yet, but I'm not sure I will return to 18 Grams anytime soon. The coffee shop is cute and the staff provided decent customer service. The coffee shop is on the smaller size, has limited seating. The seating is all very hard and not comfortable. This is not the place to come and work for a while. Also, the parking can be challenging since it's in a busy shopping center. read more

While visiting my boy up in Elk Grove, I was in need of a caffeine fix! I wanted to go to one of my regular coffee shops in the area but my boy told me to give 18 Grams a try. I asked for his go to drink and he said the 1987. When arriving in the shopping plaza where the store was located was a bit of a challenge. Being close by two fast food chains during lunchtime isn't the business! Luckily when entering 18 Grams it wasn't busy. I placed my order for my drink and waited patiently. Once I had my drink in hand I grabbed a table outside to enjoy the coffee and air. This was a flawless recommendation from my friend. Not too strong or sweet. Had a nice vanilla taste. The 1987 is my nee go to when I visit 18 Grams. Give it a try and it may be your new addiction! read more

This place is always solid. It's kind of a ritual to get a strawberry matcha and pandan cookie before a long drive to caffeinate myself - this time it was for my trek from Sac to LA. I like that their drinks are not too sweet and they have intriguing flavors. Also, there are interesting sounding specials that rotate from time to time. The staff was very friendly and I ordered over the phone so I didn't have to wait long. There were a lot of tables and seats when I went on a Monday morning. The wood aesthetic is pretty clean looking and it adds a nice vibe - can imagine that it would be a nice place to do some work or meet up with a friend. read more

Coffee 1.0 Customer Service 2.0 This is a sad day for me since I have never rated a place this low. My daughter was in search for a good coffee house and I asked if she ever tried 18 Grams Coffee & Tea. She answered: Nope; so off we went... First of all this is a cute little coffee house on the south east side of Elk Grove right off the 99 freeway. Typically I usually get a drip coffee, but today since I was with my daughter she said "expand" and try something different so a Sea Salted Caramel Cream Iced Coffee for me and a Vietnamese Iced coffee for my daughter. When we entered we just walked up to the counter and it's self ordering while two young women were working the behind the counter (no greeting or acknowledgment) So after ordering we sat and waited near the front door. My daughter and I did appreciate the vintage looking seats at the window area facing the street. (We even said, probably from an old train station) After a short wait, our order was ready and we walked out and I snapped a picture of our drinks (daughter reminded me too). In the car I take my first sip (not stirring the drink yet) and I said TOO SALTY. I couldn't taste the coffee or the caramel, so I let it sit a bit then swirled the coffee. And with no luck the drink was overpowering with a salty taste and decided to toss the drink. My daughter's Vietnamese Ice Coffee was "meh" (her words) but she able to finish her coffee. Probably won't be returning even to try just their regular drip coffee or tea. read more

Got the sea salt cold brew, ube latte, and pandan coconut cookie. The coffees were not too sweet and you can definitely taste the ube and sea salt. The cookie is served warm (yum!) and also not too sweet. It was really cold in the cafe but some might prefer that. It's a nice place to study. There is a self order screen and the coffee came out shortly after ordering. read more

Drinks/Food: I like their drinks, especially when drinking in cafe. Their burrito looks so good but did not get a chance to try. Service: Good, no complaints at all! Ambiance: So many students studying out there with their laptop, kind of hard to find a spot to chill and talk. Tip: The last time I went, there was arts in the back where you can collect for free from Dan Yamamoto, gorgeous, beautiful handmade art! read more

I came here with a friend and tried their iced vanilla latte. It was delicious, not too sweet which is how I like it! Service was friendly and quick .

In the area early one morning and haven't had my morning cup of joe. This place popped up and it's close to where we need to go so we stopped by. I got the iced ube latte and hubby got the hot mocha. We also ordered one of their longganisa breakfast burrito. Ube Latte- ube jam, condensed milk and espresso shot. I like that the coffee is strong enough to give me that jolt of morning caffeine. Eventhough it is an ube drink, it was kind of lacking that ube flavor, it wasn't strong enough for my liking. Mocha- Ghirardelli and Ibarra chocolate, espresso and milk. I took a sip of this drink and it was a chocolate/caffeine delight. Not too sweet, not too bitter tasting, just the right amount. Longganisa burrito- it's on a small side and good enough for 1 person, but hubby and I shared it. It was hot and steamy and perfect pair for our drinks. They had a good amount of longganisa in every bite. Enough to fill our tummy in the morning. We subbed oatmilk on both our drinks since our tummy can't handle dairy. This place have good amount of tables and chairs, but it can get crowded especially in the morning. Those seats and tables can get easily occupied by people doing work (or school work) so you wouldn't find an open space if you want to hang out and drink your coffee. Better take that coffee to go and drink outside or in your car. Friendly vibe though so definitely a must try. read more

We've stopped by this location twice and each time we were impressed with the flavor and portion of the coffee. This time around, I was not interested in getting coffee so I opted for the Earl Grey latte. It was perfectly sweetened with honey and the amount of ice didn't take away or dilute the flavor of the tea. The tea was very bold, but not overbearing. My husband got the Ube latte which uses a Vietnamese coffee base. It's slightly different than some of the other Ube lattes we've had, but that's not a bad thing. The Ube flavor is very subtle and is slightly overpowered by the Vietnamese coffee. This was also nicely sweetened and not too sweet. Service was fine. We ordered at the kiosk so we didn't really interact with anyone. We were met with a smile though when we picked up our drinks. There were a lot of people hanging out so if you're looking for a coffee break or to catch up with some friends, they have the space to do that. read more

Decided to try this place out and ordered the ube latte as well as their special for the season which was the marshmallow matcha latte I think it was called. Nonetheless the drink tasted like matcha with marshmallow which I liked. Their ube was good and pretty strong. I also got their ube muffin and it tasted very good as well. They have a lot of drinks to choose from so will be coming back to try it and also other bakery items they have. They have kiosk to order. I guess the price is decent but little pricy if you compare it to Dutch. Lots of tables to do work at but they were taken when I went with people working. read more

18g is definitely my go to spot for coffee. consistently great and always hits the spot. My daughter's a big fan of their chocolate milk too, which is a nice bonus. Their breakfast burritos are always on point, and the red sauce takes them to the next level. Highly recommend! read more

Really great coffee, with fun drinks using really great ingredients. My iced half decaf mocha was creamy, delicious and the pep I needed to be at an event all day. The space has seating on the wall sides, leaving the inside open. Every table was taken with people working on laptops, this place is popular. The bathroom in the back was a little on the dingy side, but clean. Plenty of parking in the strip mall. Overall, I'm unaware of the coffee shop game nearby, but this spot is quality! read more

This is a cute little coffee shop with small seating area inside and a few tables outside. I was on the go and ordered black iced tea and my breakfast burrito to go. The service was friendly, fast and my burrito was piping hot. This was a coffee shop breakfast burrito, not a taco shop breakfast burrito, meaning it's on the small side and pricey. Luckily the flavor was there. This was a bacon breakfast burrito and I really enjoyed that bacon was chopped up and not just one single strip. It did have too much tortilla for such a small burrito, but it still satiated me. I opted for a black iced tea, but their coffee menu looked great and had all the staples; lattes, americanos, cold brews, and a few specialty drinks. The black tea was delicious and hit the spot. They only offer one other tea option, but it's non-caffeinated. No thanks, I need the boost. There's plenty of parking here, but it was packed at 8:30am, due to the Crunch Gym next door. Maybe hold off to avoid the morning workout rush and lack of parking. read more

What stands out most to me about 18 Grams is the revolving Art and Haiku Poetry shows highlighting a local graphic artist. Dan Yamamoto is clearly gifted in capturing nature with his intricate pen and ink designs. His current gallery is of unique photography of beautiful flowers Up Close! Dan's art display is enriched by his humility, gentleness, inspiration and generosity. He offers 18 Gram customers a complimentary art greeting card to either enjoy ourself or send to a special someone. What a sweet atmosphere- thank you 18 Grams! read more

This was my favorite coffee shop in college and I was able to visit recently. Their ube muffins are something that I always crave/think about when I am in the area and never leave without buying a couple of them. I don't know what it is, but it is the best ube muffin I've ever tried! This time around, I was also able to try their longanisa breakfast burrito along with their hojicha black sesame latte. The burrito was the perfect breakfast size, not too much but just enough. As far as the hojicha latte goes, the combination did not work that well for me. I don't know if it's the hojicha powder, or the black seasame cream, but I wouldn't get the drink again. I highly recommend trying their muffins if you're planning on getting a food / sweet item! read more

I went to 18 Grams to get some work done. Employees were nice and helpful and I like the atmosphere of the cafe. It's a cozy, quiet, nice environment with a lot of outlets available. It may be hard to get a seat so if that is something you plan on doing, come early to secure a spot! There were many other people working in this cafe. I was originally on the booth seat because there were no more tables available and it was very uncomfortable and difficult to type. I wish the table at the booth was even just a bit more elevated so it's more comfortable for people to work at. I got a sausage breakfast burrito and it was really good! It had a nice crisp on the tortilla and the flavors and textures went well together. I was a bit hesitant because I am not really a fan of sausage but the other options sold out. However, I was really pleased and would definitely order it again. Don't expect a large breakfast burrito though. It's a perfect snack or food to help get you through the day and the price reflects that. I also ordered the 1987 half sweet. I wish they had a 75% option because it was a bit too bitter for me. Next time I'll try 100% and see how it tastes. I also got to try the Vietnamese coffee which was good! Not amazing, but it was good. I preferred it over my drink, but I will give it another try. read more

Every time I'm back in my hometown, 18 Grams is a must-visit. Some places just get it right and this one always delivers. The coffee is consistently rich and flavorful, with a touch of sweetness from the Vietnamese influence that makes it stand out. Their pastries are just as good--especially the ube or pandan muffins and cookies. Everything pairs perfectly. Cozy vibe, great quality, and always a treat. Highly recommend! read more

I came to this coffee shop on a whim as I was going to an event that was around the corner and had some time to kill. When I got there it was roughly 1:30 and the place was busy but not crowded. It was very cozy as you walked in because the scent of coffee and sweet treats were definitely in the air which made the space feel very homey. The one call out was definitely around the service. It was my first time at this coffee shop and I wasn't sure if I had to order at the pad that was on the left hand side or at the spot where it looked like there was a cash register. I stood there for about a minute and a half and when no one acknowledged me he said hi or just gave me a welcome, I decided that it would be best to order from the pad. Again that is the one call out it would have been nice to have been greeted by someone to understand what was best to do at the time. Boarding process itself was simple clicked on the items paid for it and probably within 7 to 9 minutes both of my items are ready. I purchased a iced coffee with a salted cream top and an ube muffin that was warmed up. The ube muffin was just the right amount of sweetness there was a nice crunch on the top as you bid into it and the ube flavor was definitely tasted throughout each bite. The iced coffee with the salted cream top was superb. I definitely tasted the cream on its own and it again was a rich silkiness of cream with a great flavor of salt. Definitely recommend mixing it into the iced coffee because it just really enhance the flavor of the coffee itself. Overall I would definitely go back to this place and try the other items on their menu. read more
