Blackberry Peach Scone and Irish Cheddar Scone
Kelly C.

Hubs tried this place a couple of weeks ago and he was adamant that I try it, because I love scones, and here, they make them fresh every day. So I happily obliged. The scones he had last time were not available so they rotate flavors. That's awesome. I ordered a blackberry peach scone and he ordered the Irish cheddar scone. I LOVED my scone. It was so moist. The cinnamon topping is the chef's kiss. It reminded me of the days when my mom made pie crust and with the leftover crust I would sprinkle sugar and cinnamon on top and bake them. The top of the scone tasted just like that to me. Mmm mmm. The coffee was well made. Just a little hotter would have been better, for me. The building is small and there is nowhere to sit inside, but outside, there are plenty of tables to sit and enjoy your scone and coffee. I will be back tomorrow as we head out back home. I can't wait to see what scones there are to choose from. When we got here the news was doing a story on them! That was pretty cool.

matcha latte
Clarissa N.

I ordered the ice matcha latte with vanilla syrup. I think the ratio was off from matcha to milk cause the drink came out very light green. The latte also was wayyy to sweet, all I could taste was vanilla syrup and no matcha at all :/ I'm willing to give this place another chance because the service was really nice and made my drink really fast. The location of this place was also really pretty and it had a lot of outdoor seatings to hangout with your friends. There is also minimal parking spots in front but there is lots of street parking as well.

Grab a seat after you order.

Took us a while to discover The Alley. Now that we have, it's a go-to for listening to live music while hanging out on the weekend. Dear Hubby can have a beer from Energren, and I can have an iced coffee from California Coffee Republic. We often also order food from Fire & Vice, which shares space with "CCR" in the same suite. Ordering takes place at a couple of registers also shared between the two businesses. If you're ordering drinks, they're normally made pretty quickly, so stick around. If you're ordering food, that will take longer (sometimes a lot longer, but that's on Fire & Vice). As several other Yelpers have mentioned, the coffee is very smooth. I definitely like the mellow flavor, and the options for almond milk or other vegan options. They have various syrup flavors (hello, lavender!) to wake up either coffee or tea beverages. One thing they don't have is a blender, so no ice blended frosty drink concoctions. You can't see their venue or signage from the street or the parking lot. You should plan to enter the parking lanes on either side of The Alley and head to the back as far as you can. They're at the far southeast corner of The Alley, but you have to park and walk into the middle of the complex to get to their front door. Staff is usually very friendly and eager to please.

Getting a latte while I'm in town.

While I was out visiting my hometown, decided to give California Coffee Republic a try. WOW, this was hands down the best latte I have ever had! If you love coffee, this is definitely a must visit. Staff was super friendly. It is just down the street from Starbucks, so don't waste your time and visit CCR!

20oz Cold Brew
John Michael S.

For the past week I've been looking to try and support local coffee places as I'm over the chain stores. I decided to checkout California Coffee Republic after getting a few recommendations from my fellow Moorpark residents. First off, this coffee location is off on Flinn/Spring near Enegren Brewing in Moorpark. I literally had to drive around the complex 3 times times before double checking the suite number. It's not obvious if you've never visited the complex and unless you walk down the middle alleyway separating the two sides of the complex, you will have a hard time finding it. The location is literally across from Enegren and in the back of the complex with the last unit. There is adequate parking in the complex, but when Enegren is in full swing you will probably have to do street parking if it's lunch time or later. I arrived and there was a decent group of customers, which is always reassuring. The staff was extremely customer service oriented and very friendly. I absolutely felt welcome and they did treat every customer like an interaction instead of a transaction, which was great to see. The owner/manager did a great job communicating and interacting with everyone. Unfortunately, the large cold brew I ordered was without a doubt the worst one I've ever ordered anywhere. For $5.75 and 20oz I might as well just stayed home and made something with my Keurig. As some have stated, it was flavorless and felt watered down. Looking around at all the other customers I was the only one who didn't order hot coffee here and that might have been my mistake. However, ordering a coffee shouldn't taste watered down and have no substance. I actually tossed my coffee once I got home as each subsequent sip got worse and worse. Luckily, there were no coffee grounds in it, but it was very weak overall. Truthfully the redeeming qualities here are the customer service and the ambiance so I might give them a chance, but their cold brew coffee did leave a horrible impression as did the amount of effort trying to locate this business. I would reconsider visiting here later in the day (lunchtime) and try a hot coffee, but for cold brew/iced coffee fans I cannot recommend.

Iced vanilla latte with oatmilk
Suhani P.

Cute local coffee spot in a hidden area! The staff is very nice and friendly. The menu is not extensive but it is good enough for anyone to find something. There is a ton of seating outside and parking is easy to fine. Definitely returning the next time I'm in the area.

Coffee was good. Scones were also good crunchy and soft, unique combination of scone flavors. It was nice atmosphere. Just one thing we had to deal with so many flies seating outside

My smooth vanilla latte and computer work in peaceful friendly space
Lilo L.

Best latte I've had, smooth, creamy and strong without any bitterness. I get sugar free vanilla latte with almond or coconut milk. I love it and I want one now it better to support this nice family business as well.

Latte with Mexican mocha flavor
Amber P.

I was around the area so I decided to stop by here to finish my book. I ordered an iced latte with Mexican mocha syrup. This coffee shop is located indoors to order and the seating is outdoors shared with the other shops. Their menus offer a variety of food and drinks. I wanted to order a scone but they were out. My latte was pretty good. I got it with whole milk so the milk flavor was really strong, not enough coffee as I would've liked. Also I couldn't really taste the flavor I added but I'm sure I could've asked for an extra pump when ordering. They delivered my drink to me and overall the service was great. I would come back. :)

Much to my surprise, it was about as lively as I had remembered it. The Alley was established during Covid times and offered a retreat to escape from the humdrum of the homestead. These days, its friendly vibe welcomes neighbors and visitors with a backyard setting strewn with twinkle lights and family-style tables. It's a causal scene and easy to soak in the live music, sunlight/moonlight, and neighborly banter. The layout resembles an alley with shops on either side, big open doors invite you to grab something to eat, sample a drink, or shop for handmade gifts. On one side, you've got craft brews and coffee roasters. On the other side, it's local wines and piping hot pizzas. Dogs are welcome all around. At the center of it all, there's live music on the weekends. Modeled after a Beer & Wine Garden concept, The Alley features Enegren Brewery (beer), Lucas Sellers (wine), California Coffee Republic (java), Fire & Vice (pizza), and The Craft House (non-alcoholic tchotchkes). As a self-proclaimed wino, I opted for a sampling of the Lucas Sellers Wines. Ashley, who was behind the bar and top of the pours, gave me good suggestions and offered anecdotes about each wine on tap. At the end of the night, my light pinot paired perfectly with the Mushroom Arugula pizza from Fire & Vice. And I felt right at home, surrounded by friends.

Most places serve it in a paper cup where the espresso and gelato just blend into a mushy mess. Not here. Carrara's presents it beautifully on a stone tray, with a proper espresso cup and a transparent glass so you can actually see the layers of gelato and espresso. And Ama personally poured the espresso tableside, which really topped off the whole experience. Great food, great service, great atmosphere. Will definitely be back.
