    Best egg bites EVER!
    cami c.

    Visiting Murphys for a destination wedding and stopped at Gold Country Roasters for our morning fix. We tried the Sept special latte, Dancing in September, which is caramel, cardamom, and cinnamon --we used almond milk and half the syrup. It is delish! We also had the new veggie egg bites. Seriously the best egg bites I've ever had! These are not your Starbucks or Peet's bites, they have spinach, fluffy -- I mean FLUFFY - potatoes, and cheese. I'm going to dream about these things! This is a popular place--opens at 7:00. Get here early if you want pastries. The case was already sparse by the time we arrive about 8:30. Murphys is an adorable town and we will return--and stop here for our morning lattes!

    We purposefully stopped at Gold Country Roasters on our way out of town because we fell in love with their Arnold roast. We experienced a bit of sticker shock at the price of our drinks. My Purple Haze was $9 . The other surprising thing was they charge $18/bag for their roasted coffee beans. But at Big Tree Market in Arnold, they're only $16/bag. They were also out of all of their breakfast pastries. (We arrived around 11am.) So, if you want to grab a breakfast bite, arrive a little early. The spot is super cute though & the trees were in bloom, which was so beautiful.

    Awesome strong, delicious coffee. You pour yourself, and add whatever you like. Good service and quick. Busy place for good reason. Plus books available right outside the front door. Charming area to sit outside amongst birds and trees.

    Delicious rugelach!

    While visiting Murphys today, we stopped by for a mocha. The beans used were on the dark side but after adding a little cream and sugar, it was delicious. As we sat outside, we decided to go inside and try an apricot rugelach and a cinnamon one. They were very tasty. We went back inside again and got another apricot one. Everyone here was so nice here. Delicious rugelach!

    Cappuccino Rugelach was just ok 2.00

    The staff wasn't very friendly and didn't ask for my name for my iced coffee like they did for everyone else. We had my toddler grandson with us so we waited outside with him. As soon as we went outside they shut the front door on us making my daughter feel unwanted and pushed out with her toddler. They never told us our coffee was ready so we finally walked in to check on it and it was waiting on the counter, melted...They could have at least came and brought our coffee out to us knowing we were right out front after closing the door.

    First time ever being here and lemme just say, WOW.! This hole in the wall coffee shop right off the main road is so cute and I love the vibes here! The service here was impeccable, the ladies who helped me were so amazing and helped answer my questions. The double chocolate scone is TO DIE FOR! The bakery goods here are made locally which is a huge plus in my book! If you haven't tried this place out, I highly recommend to come by here, enjoy the indoor/outdoor patio they have!

    Good coffee, very expensive. It's a small place but very strong in atmosphere and a good stop in a Downtown Murphy's trip.

    Alicias Sugar Shack is AMAZING!! IF you are on your way…read moreup or down the hill stop in and get your self a little treat, TRUST me, you will be thanking me, well hopefully.. lol.. I have tried a few things on there menu, all look so good tho. I really like the breakfast burrito, with bacon. IT WAS SOOO GOOD! It hast to be one of my Fav breakfast Burrito since last time I can remember. The proportions were all perfect, egg, cheese, bacon, and maybe a little more spice if you are into that, I like it either way... I might add avocado if they could, sure small fee but thats a given and have you seen the prices of food these days.. lol Service , Hands down all the girls I talked to while we got breakfast, were super friendly, busy but were nice when i asked for a few other things, and then coming to get my order... ** This Business is more of point of sale or window order I guess? , and pick up, not waited on. And nothing wrong with that, Just saw one negitive Review out of sooo many. So take it as you will, they clean off things when they get around to it, Its a Pastry shop, tucked away in Tuolumne County. Up past the turn off to the Black Oak Casino , in the mountains, open up most seasons if not all just changed hours...** Ambiance, well. Its a little wooden shack , wood work is beautiful inside. I think it has 2 or 3 tables inside, and a bunch outside . No dogs / pets inside but I saw a dog or two in the patio area outside... And if any of the reviews on Yelp have helped, tell them Yelp sent you, I am sure they will appreciate it..

    We've been coming here for years. I believe they switched owners and since then the place has gone…read moredown hill. The morning offerings of muffins, croissants, scones, and cinnamon rolls has failed me. I will say the sandwiches are decent, but nothing to write home to. The smoothies used to epic, but they now fall flat. I'm think they are not using all the fruit as the old owners did. As for the staff....a little rude and it seemed like no one wanted to wipe the tables down. It's a cute place, but if I had a choice I would skip it and seek life elsewhere for some morning substance.

    TLDR. Awesome food and even better on a Tuesday on the patio with your dog and family…read more Recently went to Grounds for a late lunch this week. Even though it was late on a Tuesday the patio was still busy. We got a nice table outside because it was a beautiful day and we had our GSD with us. Shared the beet salad and the chicken burrito and also a kids hamburger with fries for the pup ( fries were for us). PROTIP: We took the option to split each dish by the kitchen and although it cost a couple bucks more, you get a little more of everything! Beet salad was solid with perfect allocations of all ingredients. I would say it was a bit heavy on the dressing but I like minimal dressing and my partner said it was perfect so there you go. The burrito was "wet" and delicious! Lots of flavor fresh ingredients and very saucy. Only thing it lacked was a little heat. Ask for tapatio if you like a little spice. The hamburger by the way, was larger than a normal hamburger you get on the kiddie menu. And the fries were piping hot and fresh. Our dog loved the burger as he should and we downed all the fries. Highly recommend and will be back!

For sure I know we order for appetizers: Crispy Calamari: 9/10 seasoned and tastes very light! Red Thai Curry Coconut Mussels: 10/10 coming from a SE Asian background, flavors are authentic Entrees: Unsure of what we ordered but we definitely had the elk medallions which was delicious! Loved the services, vibe, food and good strong drinks! Cannot wait to go back on our annual trip!
