This place is always so busy and I'm not sure why, I've been here twice now and their drinks are $6+ each and not that good. My husband got the strawberry matcha and there was maybe 1 tsp of strawberry jam. Kind of ridiculous to charge that much when there is no flavor. Lame read more

Day Visited: Saturday @ 1 PM Price Range: $$ Parking: Free parking lot Ordered: Iced Mocha with vanilla cold foam and Iced Americano with vanilla cold foam Overall, solid 8.5/10. Any time we visit Sac, it is one of our go-to spots! They do an excellent job of sourcing their coffee beans along with roasting them. They've gotten exceptionally good at standardizing their drinks across the board as well. We have also tried many of their drinks outside of what we ordered today, including the 1987, 18 to the Brain, Thai Coffee, and Mexican Mocha. They have a food menu as well, which ranges from rice bowls to breakfast sandwiches. It's a great place to go to meet with friends, studying, or working on a project. They also have a good amount of seating inside, but it does fill up quickly! They do have WiFi (and outlets) and one single bathroom. Given we have been coming here for years, it is a must whenever you're in the Arden area! read more

First time here last weekend and it did not disappoint. Restaurant and decor were so aesthetically pleasing. Parking was quite easy as it's in a big plaza. High ceiling with low and high seatings with tables and outside seatings as well. You can order to go and come to pick up. We saw lots of ppl do that. Or for there, you can order on the kiosk or with the counter cashier. Food and coffee orders were amazing. Such great flavors and large portions. We would come back again if we were in the area. Pricing is not cheap but we think it's worth it. Loco moco with Kim chi?!?! Never had this combo before and will need to have it again. Longanesa egg sandwich, I want to have that every day. The flavor combo was soo good that it's been a week since I had it, I want it again. Recommend for sure! read more

decided to give this place a try due to the great reviews already on yelp and definitely did not disappoint! strawberry matcha with sea salt foam was amazing! strawberry was delicious. the color of the matcha is phenomenal, if you know- you know! interior was kept very clean. lots of seating to choose from and my friend and i adored the seating arrangements. we serviced through the kiosk due to our introverted nature but if you're a chatter box you can also go up to the register! seems like a filipino fusion due to the ube drinks + longonisa dishes. i unfortunately wasn't able to try their food but now it gives me more of a reason to come back! will definitely be back soon. read more

18 Grams Coffee Roasters - Iced coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Sacramento, California

Talk about a pleasant surprise! 18 Grams totally blew me away. Judging by the outside, you'd think it's just a sleek, modern spot to grab a quick drink. But surprise! They are secretly hiding a gourmet kitchen in there. I only came for coffee, but the food envy was real the second I saw the dishes on the other tables. I ended up ordering the steak and eggs with an iced herbal tea. And what can I say? SO. GOOD. The steak was melt-in-your-mouth tender, and the culinary mashup of kimchi and chimichurri was immaculate. I loved it so much I literally couldn't leave without buying a second order to-go for my mom. Yes, THAT good. This is a must-visit if you're in Sacramento. I'm already plotting my return to try their popular Vietnamese coffee. read more

Great coffee and brunch spot to study or meet up with friends. I'm usually not a huge fan of ube but their ube toast was really good. The toast was soft and warm and paired well with the ube. Their loco moco is a good choice if you want a more savory option. It was flavorful and had a spicy kick to it. Service is pretty quick. You can order at the kiosk or someone at the counter can do it for you. read more

Very cool looking place! A good sized dining area with multiple tables for parties of 2-4 people. You order at a kiosk and the order comes out pretty quick. Their house special coffees are good but the food is what really stands out. I ordered the chilaquiles with chorizo and the wife got the hongkong style french toast with ube cream cheese. Both were really good! But having them together makes it an excellent breakfast, with one being sweet and the other one savory. read more

The avocado toast was really good and crispy. And I love how you guys put the arugula & the sunny side egg and feta on the avocado toast. What a great spin on avocado toast. The Ube French toast was so delicious. Unlike any French toast we've ever had. It was so sweet and I'm a really big fan of Ube. Despite the lines the service was fast. Reasonably really priced for hot and fresh food and drinks. Ambiance was amazing I could spend a few hours for sure. Thanks for the wonderful experience! We'll be back. read more

Finally got around to trying this well-known coffee spot and was pretty impressed with the menu. I ordered the 1987 and really liked the sweet + salty combo. I also couldn't resist the "gluten-free churro mochi" when I saw it on display. I was expecting something chewy with a cinnamon churro flavor and a bit of crunch, but it was kind of a letdown in both taste and texture. Probably wouldn't get the mochi again, but I'd definitely come back to try more drinks. read more

Grateful for my Ohana in Sacramento. They know my love for food but more so small hole in the wall spots. 18 Grams Coffee Roasters no secret to the locals. We were lucky one person left after we ordered cause no place to sit. Main reason came my cousin telling me need to get Hong Kong French Toast. Different and never had before. The biggest difference is French Toast deep fried. So crispy outside but moist and has characteristic of typical French Toast. The thing made it all come together for me. The sauce combine with Ube butter. Honest thought was ice cream. lol. The fresh fruit perfect balance. The portion size if insane. Carb overload. I also got couple cookies. Have display of fresh baked goods. Variety little of everything. Cookies were da bomb. I had matcha drink that was tasty. The drink menu has nice diversity. Just wish had one in Vegas. I be back next visit see Sac Ohana. read more

I was craving an early breakfast prior to heading to an office meeting and saw this establishment was open at 7AM. Strange thing is I've lived in the area for over 5 years and never swung by here until after moving out of the city. I regret not visiting sooner. Doh! Upon arrival I was told they didn't serve breakfast until 8AM. Having a lot of time to kill, I ordered a mocha. They brewed the drink quickly and it was very delicious. Plenty of seating and welcoming decor. As 8AM approached, I ordered their loco moco. I'll admit, it was an interesting take on the loco moco, combining kimchi to add a little spice to it. I personally felt the gravy was a tad bit sweet, not to my liking. But overall the experience and service itself justified a 5 star rating. I really enjoyed their coffee and will be returning back from now on when I make quarterly trips to the office. I'll also give the other menu items a shot as well! read more

I love this place. Ive been twice now and both times have been great. The coffee is great and the flavor combos are amazing. The 1987 is my favorite so far as it's still coffee forward with a sweet hazelnut flavor. Also, if you're an ice lover, they have the best nugget ice! read more

Ordered the 1987. I thought it was pretty average compared to other coffees I've had and noticed it was a premade latte that they keep in the fridge. Other than that, I thought the mixture of hazelnut with salted cream and chocolate was a great flavor mix. read more

18 Grams Coffee Roasters - 1987 - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Sacramento, California

When I'm in the Arden area I love stopping here for a quick coffee. There's plenty of parking in the shopping plaza and a lot of stores and other restaurants to spend time at- even a movie theater. The cafe itself is open, bright, and welcoming. I love the mural on the wall and the different seating options allow for all types of groups and experiences- from a quick coffee, to a study session, date, or group outing. The staff is always friendly and I love the variety of drinks and food. Speaking of food, it's delicious! I tend to order their savory menu items and they're always served hot and freshly made. I try to order different drinks to explore the menu, but I always come back to the 1987. It has the perfect sweetness and is a great pick me up for the day. During the warmer months they have outdoor seating and you'll want to check out their social media for specials. They have two sister locations- one in Elk Grove by the same name, and Forever 18 Grams in Midtown. All of them are great options. read more

My first new restaurant of 2026 and this place didn't disappoint! the vibes and decoration within the place were great, definitely reminiscent of the Bay Area (despite being in Sacramento). We stopped by here for brunch on a Sunday with some friends and was able to find a table with minimal issue. I love that you can either order at the coffee bar for quick service and/or to go orders or just sit and order from a QR code and have the food delivered directly to you. The service was fairly fast, despite it being Sunday brunch time and the food was great. I ordered the steak and fried rice, which was maybe slightly a little too marinated, but clearly flavorful! I even had a little meat left over to take to go. As for the drink, I got the Vietnamese hazelnut, upon the recommendation of my friend. And the drink didn't disappoint! Overall, a great spot! I would definitely come here again and it feels like a great spot to work on your computer for a couple hours and great a nice lunch or coffee. read more

18 Grams Coffee Roasters - Steak and fried rice - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Sacramento, California

This was my first time coming here for coffee and I was definitely impressed just with my first few steps through the door. It felt super spacious inside while also being very clean and organized. There was a lot of table space and seating that I noticed as well while walking in and people were definitely making use of it. I ordered an Ube Latte; there were a lot of drinks that I was interested in, so I'll definitely be back to try them out! My drink was good; it didn't feel excessively strong and helped me get through my work for the day. It did settle quite a bit on my drive home, so I was getting a bit more of this powdery texture at the bottom even after mixing. I do think it was on me for not drinking it right away, so I'll still give it another shot. I do want to do some work here just because there's a lot of natural lighting and it seems like a good environment to really focus on work. On Mondays, the place does close at 2pm, but on other days it closes at 5pm. Staff is very friendly and there's a vast amount of parking outside. If you get hungry during your time there, you can order from their food menu or just venture outside to the surrounding plaza. It's situated right in between Kura and Bonchon which are two great spots in my opinion! read more

Cute! Was heading to the airport and stopped here to get coffee and an egg sandwich to-go. Ate the rest of the sandwich at the airport and it hit the spot. The latte was on point and strong and I wish I got a bigger size. Inside it's a cute aesthetic with plants, wood etc. I would come here for brunch or to co-work in the future. I ordered my items at the counter but there are iPads for self-ordering by the entrance. Definitely a cute/cool/modern coffee spot to check out. read more

Years later and this place is still my favorite. I've never had anything bad here. And despite being super busy at all hours, the workers are always very friendly and helpful. They have really stepped it up with their food as well. Their pastries and cookies have always been amazing and their breakfast items are just as good. My favorite is the breakfast sando and the Hong Kong French toast. It's a great place to stop by either before or after you do some shopping in the area. I have so much love for 18 Grams and will definitely continue to support them. read more

Tried here on a monday morning to have some good breakfast and didn't disappoint. I like the place, very nice and cozy feeling, lots of space and very quiet. Love all their breakfast because i can taste the scallions on it which i really like. Their mocha is to die for! One of my favorite mocha coffee i've tried in Sac. The cappuccino comes in a very small cup and kinda expensive for a small portion of coffee. The iced coffee has lots of ice and i drank only maybe 4-5 sips of it so hoping they improve this one. They almost got our orders interchange but overall its good will come back again and try their full brekafast menu. read more

Almost as delicious, but the flavors are still on point. I do notice that the meat was not as fresh and more dense whereas the first time, the meat easily fell apart. I still enjoyed every bite. I would get it again! :) read more

Always love the interior design for all 18grams! This location has lots of seating and tables, even extra seating outside as well. I like that you can either order at the kiosk thing by the door if you're not feeling very social, or at the front cash register. I've been randomly craving a BLT lately and I was so happy to see they had it on their menu, so that's what I ordered. It was so delicious and definitely satisfied my cravings. The sourdough bread was a bit too greasy for my liking but overall everything else was great. I loved the aioli sauce that they used. The only thing missing was some fries! read more

I really enjoyed stopping here in my way back from a day in Sac! The graham latte gave me a good caffeine boost though not as sweet as I typically like for this sort of drink -since it wasn't so sweet it paired great with the Gochujang Caramel Cookie! It was absolutely to die for. I would go back just for the cookie! It's buttery, sweet, nutty, and perfect! If you like moist and soft and a little doughy, definitely try. The place is so quaint and trendy with a good vibe. I liked that they gave out cards for their guests with cultural significance as a gift. My only wish would be they add pillows to their seats as they are hard and uncomfortable if staying a while. read more

It's a cute cafe with interesting drinks and food choices. Nice spots to sit down and you can order at the counter or on a screen. I got the ube latte and I was excited about it but it was just too milky for my liking. Maybe I should have known since it was made with condensed milk but wasn't able to finish it. Bummer but I'd be willing to try something else there another time. read more

18 Grams Coffee Roasters - Ube latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Sacramento, California

Super happy with the coffee here. I got a less sweet / half caff Vietnamese iced coffee (and added some cold foam) and it was perfect! Not too sweet, a solid, not too nutty coffee flavor. My friend's ube latte was also well flavored and a perfect mixture of the bitter and sweet. She said she tasted a bit of saltiness, which I didn't get too much of - but worth noting. They had pandan coconut cookies, ube cookies, and chocolate chip cookies. They also had different ube & other flavored muffins (even a gochujang & sesame one!) and I tried the mochi churro one. It was gluten free and perfectly chewy because of the rice flour and a perfect amount of sweetness! I highly recommend this place. A pretty moderate amount of seating in a cute shopping mall area. Clean vibe inside. Employees weren't super friendly but weren't rude at all either. :) read more

Came here for the first time in June and food was so good I couldn't wait to visit sac again to stop here. Came back in August and something was off. The breakfast Sando was good as usual, but the breakfast potatoes were totally different. Before they had some sort of yummy coating - maybe Parmesan and they were fried to perfection. This time they were just regular potatoes, absolutely nothing special. I had a Mexican mocha and my daughter had the matcha and both were just ok. Maybe it was an off day for them. We also got the skillet and it was good. I asked one of the girls if they changed some things and she said "she didn't know"....nice. Well I hope it was an off day and they get back to their normally prepared food because the first time was super good. We shall see... read more

Lots of parking and shopping nearby, making this the perfect location for a quick and convenient stop or for a sit down meal with lots of food options.

I need to go back! Also, would love to try some more drinks for this classy place. Nice space and location. read more

Tried out a new coffee spot here at 18 Grams. Ordered a simple Cold Brew. It was pretty smooth and tasted a little more earthy than other coffee shops. I would have preferred a little less ice with this type of ice, but overall the drink was nice and refreshing. I visited a little after opening and it wasn't as busy as I expected. There's a good amount of seating, ranging from standard height, high chairs/tables, and cushioned chairs in the middle of the shop. The table I chose was a little dirty with crumbs and wrappers from previous customers I assume but it wasn't an issue as it was easily cleaned up and thrown away before I actually sat down. I'd definitely come back here if I'm ever in the Arden Area. read more

Super cute coffee house! Busy and alive for a random Wednesday morning. I found it through maps search for nearest coffee since I was out here as a visitor.. I didn't want chain coffee today. The Graham coffee w oat milk ... super yummy. The breakfast options were plentiful and creative. After minutes of deliberation... I settled on Chicken Sisig rice bowl. This is much more than a rice bowl! The flavors all popped in my mouth like a song. Not to mention the " made to order" temperature of my dish. I especially appreciated the smiles of the staff. I was greeted with a smile by who looked like she would be the owner. (Her quirky style and sweet but 'bout it demeanor is why I say that) The chef emerged from behind the half curtain with a smile and a look of pride for the dish he was presenting. Even Door Dash guy was greeted with a smile and told " thank you!" The variety of music was on point. I definitely recommend this spot. I will return when I am in the area again! read more

I was able to visit 18 Grams Coffee Roasters few weeks ago. Glad it was in the same area as Kura so there are plenty of parkings! We ordered through the touch screen kiosk. What I ordered: Honey Lavender Latte: It's lightly sweetened with a some honey and light lavender flavor. To be honest, I didn't really taste the lavender as much but it was still pretty good. This place can get crowded and I love the vibes here. Super comfy and cozy area to lounge. read more

I do not understand why they NEVER have beef empanadas?
