    Clumpy matcha latte
    Pearl C.

    Actually dropped by Central Coffee a lil over a week ago on my quest for good matcha in the city! I'll start with some positives! Love the space of the cafe and its location is great for the decent ample parking. Outdoor seating in front of the entrance is very much a backyard patio vibe and it's nice and spacious inside. Service was fine too and it seems all the cafe baristas work well and fast even when there's a rush. Noise level is good so anyone looking for a study spot or a place to catch up with a friend will appreciate that! My only gripe is that I think their matcha latte isn't that great. Not sure what they use and how they prepare it but by the end of my drink, I could see clumps meaning maybe they didn't sift the powder and whisk it enough to avoid that grittiness. I can't attest to their espresso drinks but maybe I'll give them another shot if I feel like a seasonal drink!

    Friendly service and good matcha! I was looking for a cafe to study in and Central Coffee had everything I needed. The space has plenty of seating (though it filled up almost completely while I was there), tasty matcha, free Wi-Fi, and outlets (along some of the walls). I will note that their matcha does not come very sweet, but after adding some honey, it was exactly to my liking.

    I had coffee, breakfast, and a catch up with Taylor at Central Coffee. The location is kind of random (a business park area), but they have a substantial menu with something for everyone. I had the iced vanilla latte. It was a solid latte. Taylor had the iced tea with honey cold foam which was excellent. The honey cold foam was almost like a dessert. We both had avocado toasts. I had the one with pickled onions, and they loaded it up with those onions. The toast wasn't too hard, and we were able to pick it up rather than have to use a fork and knife. i liked the scone is got from here as well. i love a scone. There is lots of seating and even an outdoor area as well. The service was friendly and attentive.

    Central coffee what a cute little spot . It's in the business park of north Dutton. What an amazing location as well. You don't have to fight the standard tight parking in Santa Rosa. There's a ton of free parking, which anybody knows is important because most places go downtown you have to use a meter if you can find one.. this place is spacious with a lot of work tables and outlets. The aesthetic is so adorable warm and like home. . The menu board is adorable. I was greeted by one of the ladies and she was so sweet. I said I was in town visiting friends and I wanted to get some work done before they came and she said to stay as long as I'd like and really made me feel welcome. I'm trying the honey latte and the cinnamon roll.

    The iced salted honey latte was great!! It wasn't overly sweet and I liked that the espresso didn't leave a sour taste. However, I do wish it was a stronger roast. The ham and cheese croissant was okay, there was mustard inside which I wasn't too fond of. Loved the open seating area and large space!

    This place is a hidden gem!! Went to a coffee date with my friend and was pleasantly surprised!! It's a really nice big space with outdoor seating as well! The inside is cozy and warm/welcoming, I feel like I could stay there all morning! They have yummy drink options and food options. I got a spring menu drink, the iced honey sea salt latte and it was AMAZING!! Also got the caprese avocado toast and it was absolutely delicious! Perfect! The pastries looked good and service was quick and friendly. Can't wait to go back and try more stuff off the menu!!!!!

    clumpy matcha

    I visited this location not too long ago. When I was ordering the staff were extremely rude and would cut me off when I would try talking. I ordered me some matcha which was absolutely terrible. The matcha was extremely clumpy and not stirred well. I have a matcha obsession and all I can say is that I will not be returning.

    A great place to unwind and meet with friends. The Service is excellent. The avocado toast and cinnamon roll with cream cheese frosting are out of this world. The vibe is relaxed and very communal. A happy place with a good mission.

    Great place to study or have a coffee date. Their coffee and pastries are delicious and averagely priced. It's very spacious here. Lots of natural lighting, tables, and can generally find an outlet if you're sitting near the walls. WiFi is great, bathroom is clean. Checks off all the things I look for in a coffee shop to study/do work. There is also outdoor seating. Service was also quick and you return your tableware in a bucket by the entrance. Will be back!

    Super clean inviting atmosphere. We had a cortado (not on the menu), mocha with raspberry cold foam and a cinnamon roll. Everything was tasty. Staff were very friendly and service was fast.

    I was happily surprised by Central Coffee. I had a very delicious breakfast frittata and an iced latte. The cashier was super nice and accommodating and very personable. I will come back. Looks like a good place to meet up if you have a lot of people, multiple large tables. I don't live on that side of town but I will have to go again when I am.

    Matcha with lavender syrup

    What a cute spot! I've passed by here several times and never noticed it was a coffee shop! The inside was super nice and clean! Plenty of seating! And outdoor seating which was a plus! Actual matcha was pretty good, had minimal sweetness to it but I just added some sugar and it was fine! Next time I'll try their coffee! I also got a bagel which was nice and toasty. Service was good! Everyone here was very nice! The white mocha was decent as well!

    This place is amazing! It's hard to find a spot where you can get something healthy on the go. They have great options for that as well as some great sweets!

    vibez taste service…read more We ordered: one blended mocha, one cold brew w/toasted marshmallow cold foam + a breakfast burrito. The cold foam was like a cross between Dutch Bros soft top + Starbucks cold foam. The best of both + my new fav! Hope to visit again if we are ever in the area.

    Found this place as I was searching for cafes who sold matcha on Yelp. The matcha seemed promising…read moreafter looking through the photos so my boyfriend and I headed over. It was my first time in this area of Santa Rosa. There's a small parking lot in the back. We walked in and the space was decorated so nicely though there's not a lot of seating indoors. I can imagine how busy this place can get on a sunny day since there's lots of tables and chairs outside. We weren't greeted by the person working, just met with silence. We stood looking at the menu on the wall while the barista stood waiting for us to order. I didn't see the "special" matchas I found through the photos on Yelp then finally noticed that there was a special menu flat on the counter. I think it would be helpful if the special drinks were easier for customers to see. We both ordered then waited for our drinks. While we waited I thought I would go to the restroom, but unfortunately when I checked it was out of order. Don't get confused and go into the "employees only" door! Once we received our drinks, I was glad to see the color of both our matchas were a nice shade of green. The drinks itself were way too sweet and I could barely taste the matcha. To note, this was better than a Starbucks matcha -- it just wasn't our cup of tea. It was good to try but personally, we are not coming back.

    Came into try Brew for my morning matcha mission! Brew is a colorful cafe right on the corner of B…read moreSt and Healdsburg Ave. It has cute outdoor seating with umbrellas and plenty of chairs and tables inside without feeling cramped. It's got bar seating too! There's also some board games if you want something to play with friends over drinks. Ordered a 12oz matcha latte with almond milk ($7) and opted to have it unsweetened. Overall smooth but not too strong, and a tiny bit sweet probably from whatever almond milk they use! I like mine a bit stronger and it's not the best I've had but decent! "For here" mugs are always a plus in my book too. Brew is unique that it doubles as a cozy bar too once the late afternoon rolls around. They've got interesting events happening throughout the month posted on their sign. Some of their food and pastries are sourced from local Red Bird Bakery and Village Bakery too if you're hungry! Parking might suck, you could find street parking maybe on 8th St or if you're early you could park by the meters for free before 9AM. There's a $1/hr parking garage right nearby but if there's nothing, best to park at SR Plaza for free and make the 5min walk over. I really like the vibes of Brew and wanna come back for a happy hour one day! It's nice to see a very queer friendly cafe/bar rolled into one!

It provides the perfect atmosphere for studying and not having a feeling of being rushed. This past weekend, my husband suggested we check out a cafe we haven't been to for breakfast. I mentioned Brew even though I have been there. He took a look at their social and menu and thought it looked pretty good! We very much enjoyed slowing down for a moment while enjoying our breakfast burrios and mochas. I love having my coffee in an actual mug when I'm staying at a cafe for a bit. It's just a nice cozy touch. The breakfast burritos were good but they could be mixed a little better. It was very sectioned by egg, cheese, potato and bacon. Like each bite only had one. Layering might help this but the flavor was still amazing! Brew is known for being welcoming to everyone and that has never changed. We love the environment and the service they provide!
