    When I think of this place I think of its great coffee and community (this is what some franchised coffee shops pretend to be but this place is the real deal!) Not only do they have a great variety of drink options they also have nice selection of desserts including ice cream and grilled type sandwiches. They often have seasonal drinks and events like their anniversary open house celebrations! There's always someone with a smile ready to serve you and you'll often see their usuals in deep discussions and or folks working on their laptops. The Benicia Coffee company isn't a very large space but it has a big hometown feel and it can get very lively depending on the time of day (but in a good way, even at it's busiest times it's not very loud) This is a great place to bring the family, for a date, catch up with a friend and or get some work done while having a great cup of coffee! You can't go wrong with this place! J One thing to note: this place is cash only (but they do have a ATM available in the cafe!)

    Be aware - it's CASH ONLY. Coffee, breakfast pastry, and a laptop. This was my first visit here. I only ordered a basic latte and a pastry from the display case, and I paid $10 PLUS - eek! I was a little thrown off by "cash only," and I almost left because I never carry cash. The cashier pointed out the ATM machine located in the back. Normally, I would have passed but I wanted to give this small business a chance. I believe I paid an additional $1.50 transaction fee, PLUS my bank charged me another $3.00. No bueno! Other than that, Benicia Coffee Company is a cozy little coffee shop located on Columbus Parkway near the Vallejo city limits. Customer service was good. Ambiance and pastry was good. Sadly, WiFi was a little spotty. Coffee was average for what I ordered, but it looks like they have a lot of great coffee beans to try. Definitely want to go back and try some of their specialty coffee and maybe some of their food. This time with cash on hand.

    Pumpkin muffin and brew

    Love this spot. Super chill and a great place to tuck away in a corner and study while enjoying a good brewed coffee. They offer a variety of different coffee grinds and everything else you need to be a coffee spot. They only accept cash or check which is a bummer. Overall, love this spot for what it is. Friendly staff, good coffee, and quiet.

    BLT and mango smoothie

    Amazing staff, very friendly. Great environment for coffee chat and studying. Very happy with the affordability, $11.75 for a BLT, chips, salsa, and a drink.

    Ordered a Cream Cheese Pumpkin loaf. It was small, dry & not warmed up. For the price of $3.50 I'll go back to Rrags Cafe for a much better breakfast treat!

    Chicken Salad Sandwich

    I ordered a chicken salad sandwich with everything on it. So delicious! Employees are very nice!

    If you want to avoid the big chain coffee places, this place might be your new favorite. So far I've tried the Chai tea, a caramel latte and a mocha, a tuna melt and a pastry. The chai tea was excellent, the latte pretty tasty and I spilt the mocha all over myself at my car, so can't say anything other than "double check your coffee lids before you attempt to get in your car with a hot coffee" lol. The tuna melt was excellent-I'm fact I've gotten that 2X. The ambiance is low key and chill, although I noticed some of my fellow oldsters getting a little animated one day over a discussion over who knows what Be sure to get your coffee discount card stamped!

    Cash only. Does not accept $50 (the new $20 in 2026). Staff can be snippy. Prices are high.

    This coffee shop opens so early that we can get great coffee and roll and roll on. Cash is best! Don't miss it. Easy on and off the 780.

    Great mocha and customer service. Inconvenient that they only take cash. Nice comfy chairs and a bookshelf.

Decor takes you back to gold rush era, with black and white portraits adorned on walls in addition to the low-lighted atmosphere. Food portions good and full of flavor. Drink options extensive! Type of pricing you'd get in SF. All good! Quite a unique spot and worth visiting but you will have to plan accordingly!

    The interior looks really cool and spacious but the table space is very cramped, especially for…read moretables of 2. It also is very stuffy inside. It takes awhile for the server to come assist you, especially ordering drinks. Half our table got drinks and finished before the other got to order. The drinks took awhile to come out and came at different times and were inconsistent with taste and garnish. They never collected any empty glasses when they came with new drinks. So our table was cluttered. This is not good when your table is already cramped. When we were ordering the food the server kept trying to pressure us to order more (either two of the same dish or more food). Unfortunately we listened and got two of the mussel with fries. The assembly of this dish was not great. They put a glob of mayo on top of the mussels...then fries under with a TON of not so great broth. The fries get sooooo soggy and dipping it becomes a nightmare when you start eating the mussels. The mussels also weren't that great. It wasn't necessarily fishy but almost tasted old or left out. I would not recommend this dish. The Brussels sprouts were horrendous and EXTREMELY salty. It was drenched in this buffalo tasting vinaigrette. The entire party hated this. As for the chicken, it was alright. The hot sauce wasn't great so I ate it alone. The biscuit was tough and hard to rip apart. It didn't have that flakey texture. The slaw was a miss from just looking at it. My favorite thing out of it all was the Mac and cheese. Not dry, had good amount of salt. Oh, and if you want to order the side of carrots, I'm not sure 2 slices is worth the amount they charge. The menu is also limited compared to what was offered before.
