    Avocado toast with egg and bacon
    Cristina C.

    This place is a great little spot to work, hang out, or just get cozy with a coffee and a notebook. The space feels welcoming and comfortable, the kind of café you can easily settle into for a while. I grabbed coffee from States Coffee but wanted something to eat, and this spot was around the clerk. The avocado toast did not disappoint. I added egg and bacon, which turned it into a full and satisfying meal. The sprouts were plentiful, and the sauce was really flavorful. One half was so filling that I saved the second half for lunch. I was originally only going to order a half since they sell the avocado toast by half or full. The cashier mentioned that the full was only three dollars more, so it was the better deal. I am really glad I took that recommendation. Overall, a solid coffee shop with good food, a cozy vibe, and a space that makes you want to stay awhile. I would definitely come back.

    This place still hits. Years ago I got a sandwich. About a week or so ago I ordered that same sandwich. It's still bomb. I'm a sauce guy and I think what really does it for me is the Spicy Aioli. It's not super spicy but it does have a fun kick. There's lots of flavor that blends well with the Cheddar and Bacon. I wanna try other stuff though. I know the menu isn't the biggest because it is a coffee place at its core. I think it's a chill spot. I'm also really curious about the bar in the back. There's a decent list of cocktails that sound tasty. I really want to bring a board game soon and just hang out here for hours. To be continued for sure.

    5 stars for their Wakin Bacon breakfast sandwhich & their Chai! The breakfast sandwhich is served on a panini breas with chipotle aioli and it's so toasty and delicious. Honestly one of the best bfast sandwiches around here. Their Chai- I haven't had authentic chai like this in a while. It's house made and you can tell, it's flavorful, not spicy, and warming. Also some of the best chai I've had around here. For the health conscious people - they have a berky water system, organic oat milk, hemp milk, and more. Much appreciated!

    The settling was quiet and relaxing when I went Saturday. I ordered an iced vanilla chai on the left and my friend ordered a vanillA'more on the right. Both drinks had no flavor. The iced vanilla chai tasted watered down with cinnamon, I asked to add more vanilla syrup to it but it didn't do anything to the taste so not sure if it's the syrups? The VanillA'more just tasted like coffee, nothing that was written in the description which was vanilla creamy chocolate. We were both disappointed in the drinks as they both sounded very good.

    Iced Honey Latte & Iced Mint Latte

    Martinez, you're so charming! I recently had the opportunity to walk around the downtown area of Martinez and stopped inside Barrelista Coffee House ~ a sign that read 'coffee and cocktails'..I mean, yes and yes! Super cute and cozy interior, giving antique vibes. Extremely friendly service and help with choosing a few items from the menu for a quick pit-stop with friends. We ordered toasts, flavored iced coffees, and a matcha. Toast-wise, see pics for the Avocado Toast and Loaded Vegetarian Toast. Iced Coffee wise went with the Iced Honey Latte and the Iced Mint Latte. Super yum! The toasts are massive and well -worth the order! Aesthetically pleasing to the eye and also deliciously fresh. The Avo toast is loaded, drizzled with an aioli, hemp seeds, and chili flakes with an additional spread of cream cheese and topped with a heaping mound of sprouts. The Loaded Vegetarian comes with avocado, tomato, cucumber, cream cheese, sprouts, capers, and is piled-high potentially needing a fork/knife. If visiting Barrelista for more of their cocktail vibe, it looks like they have barrel aged cocktails and a super fun drink menu I would love to come back and cheers with a few over girl talk time. All in all, craving a toast and ice coffee as I write this. Well-done, Barrelista! Checked all the boxes for satisfying our hunger and thirst needs!

    Coffee shop downtown that has a bar feel inside. Great service and place to hang out. I met up with a few people and it's a comfortable atmosphere.

    Love the ambiance here!

    Love the ambiance here! Great place to do your court paperwork in peace with good mood lighting, music, food/drinks, friendly staff. Clean bathrooms. Plenty of street paid parking. 2 hr meters.

    Excellent customer service. Ice latte, chai and Salmon toast were delicious. Enjoyed sitting outside in perfect weather while Farmers Market was taking place. Only wish the prices weren't so expensive for this place. For 2 drinks and toast I believe our total was around $35. Will probably come back when we are back in this area. This was a popular spot for locals- singles, couples and families.

    Matcha vanilla latte
    Ashley Z.

    Had the chance to visit this shop and work from there. I ordered a matcha vanilla latte and 1/2 salmon toast with capers and sprouts. Both were ok but nothing stood out. I did like the vibe of the inside and they played 80-90's music which suited me because I was born in the 80's. Parking using the meters was $.50 an hour on a Thursday morning.

    vanilla iced latte
    Arren C.

    I really liked the area and the look of the cafe itself! I got a Vanilla iced latte (limited syrups here) but it was delicious! It wasn't watered down, not too sweet, just right. There was a decent amount of seats and I liked that the main source of lighting was from the outside! It wasn't too bright for studying. I enjoyed this place, would go again! Just wish they were open till much later.

    Not really a 7 dollar 15 minute sandwich

    It's been awhile since I first ate here. But they have a few things on their menu (very few) and it's a nice break from the other places in town. If you don't have a lot of time at lunch...order online. I like the salmon. Served on their homemade bread, with tomato, onion, capers, and alfalfa sprout. Super tasty. But... This is why they don't get 5 stars from me; they grill the homemade bread to toast it a little bit, which turns the crust into a freakin rock. You can't cut it without a steak knife. And even then, it better not be one you bought at Target or Walmart. It'd break those!

    Free wifi, a good place to work?

    The wifi there has a tendency to be slow

    Do you have matcha lattes?

    Such a cute shop! It's cozy inside, but I loved looking at all of the cool swag they have, and…read moreeverything is so easy to find. They also sell their beans, which was a nice surprise! We ended up with those and a few stickers before ordering a brown sugar cinnamon latte (on recommendation from the barista) and a giant mint chocolate chip cookie. The cookie was really big. A bit on the drier side, but I loved the flavor. Not too sweet, and the mint was just right. The latte was really good. Perfect temperature, and just the right amount of sweetness. Very good espresso taste came through the foam. Perfect little treat on a cold and rainy day! Service is really fast and friendly. I'll be back!

    After catching up with friends at Martinez Marina, we wanted to get some coffee before going our…read moreseparate ways. Since we've been boycotting a certain coffee establishment with the mermaid logo, and our once coffee spot that is now owned by a private equity firm, we wanted to go to a locally-owned coffee shop and support them instead. My friend, who also happens to live in Martinez, found this spot on Yelp and we all drove here. We arrived there with a couple of hours to spare before they closed. It's a small, charming and quaint coffee shop with plenty to offer like baked goods and pastries. The young lady working at the counter was friendly, accommodating and provided us with answers to our questions and explained their menu. My Martinez friend mentioned that he wasn't aware this place even existed and that his kids went to school just a couple blocks away. They've been in business for 13 years, and she actually graduated from the same school that his kids went to. I ordered an Iced Pistachio Latte (not too sweet), while my friends ordered a hot drink (regular latte, I believe) and another iced drink. And yes, one can ask to customize the sweetness level to your preference. We also got a slice of Pistachio Nutella Coffee Cake and a Strawberry Coffee Cake. Coffee is good (that's all we can ask for) and she gave us a generous portion of the coffee cake since there was three of us to share the cake with. My friend said he would definitely return again since he knew this place existed and continue to support local businesses.
