It's ridiculous how small the food is when the price is high. Wish there was bigger bread I guess. It was good but eating in a bad mood because of the issue is ridiculous. Shouldn't be like this. I want my people to eat and leave full. Not leave still hungry.... Peace and blessings much love read more

Love the ambiance and customer service here. I live an hour away but still make a point to stop in occasionally. The South African latte is OUTSTANDING!! read more

Journey Coffee - A South African latte. Sooo good! I live an hour away but make a point to stop here for coffee when I can. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Vacaville, California

**Aww it's been years so I might as well provide a quick update*** (1) They've expanded to a few new locations: downtown Vacaville & Fairfield :-) (2) They're seasonal syrups are cool! April 2022 featured a cookies n cream latte (yum) (3) I love the new blondies (new for me , because again it's been years) jr ember their paleo cookies, protein balls and overnight oats days (4) my old breakfast faves were there (spinach bacon wrap) with a few new additions such as the real fast tacos. For those concerned about COVID-19 culture : it's April 2022 so the state and most counties have relaxed mask ordinances especially for those vaccinated. Solano county has always been less conservative then the Bay Area (just know that) so most patrons and 0 staff were wearing masks etc... sanitizer is available up front Random: I am curious to know what the heck is being built next door. It looks like a funny lighthouse and it's just so weird, random and out of place read more

This is a very nice location that has indoor and outdoor seating. There is a huge parking lot so no issues with parking. Every time we have been here there is always a nice cashier with friendly service with a smile and we love it. The place is very clean and spacious. We ordered two affogatos and a strawberry pop tart. The drinks were so yummy and I enjoyed every bite and very glad we decided not to share! LOL. he pop tart we had later I t be day and it was good but reminds us one of jam on a shortbread cookie. Still tasty and delicious. I don't come here often but I do look forward to coming in when I am in town in need of coffee or snacks. read more

First time coming here and it was a really nice and cozy environment. Service was very friendly and gave us advice and recommendations for the menu. We tried the South African latte and the first class breakfast wrap with bacon. We asked for less ice for the coffee which was an extra charge and the bacon was extra as well. We were unaware of how much they were going to charge for the extras and we didn't know it was an extra charge for less ice as well. The food was really good and I liked how the tortilla was crispy read more

Journey Coffee is a nice coffee and breakfast location at the One Lake development. The location oversees a man made lake designed for the local community. The interior and exterior decor is modern. There's limited seating inside but they also have a few tables outside. Typically, it's crowded on the weekends with families, so arrive early if you're needing a table. Week days aren't too bad and we've found a table within the first few minutes. We ordered the breakfast wrap & the egg white bowl. Both were very delicious with fresh ingredients. It's hard to go wrong when everything is fresh! For drinks, we had a cold brew and the match latte. Their food & drinks are made to order & consistent each time. Our favor pastry to grab to go is there Nutella hand pie. The pastry is rich, soft and the crust is flaky. Very similar to a pop tart, but way better. It has just enough Nutella to compliment every bite. read more

Love this café! Journey is locally owned by a wonderful family that cares deeply about their community. As of this writing, they have five cafés and every one of them is well staffed with skilled baristas who deliver a great cup of coffee, however you like it! read more

All the Journey Coffee locations, including this one, lives up to their mission - to be more than a coffee shop. It is a warm and welcoming gathering place with great coffee and food. One thing to note is that they take a while to prep food and make drinks, so plan ahead if you're limited on time. Otherwise, this is a great small business to support. 100% recommend. read more

Love the coffee, service, and entire vibe . Highly recommend if you want something different from ur normal Starbucks.

I found the quality of this coffee shop quite average. Coffee itself was plain and the Matcha felt whatever. The overall space is quite big and I can see myself studying here. The worst part was how long until to get our food well over 30 minutes to get a breakfast burrito and a salad. I got the stuffed avocado salad and it was so unbelievably plain. I can't believe I spent money on it. The redeeming factor here is the servers were nice and the latte art was cute. read more

This coffee shop/ restaurant was fantastic! The food was delicious, gluten friendly, and reasonably priced with large portions. the service was excellent, friendly and informative, barista went above and beyond helping a member of our party figure out an espresso drink. Their pumpkin spice latte is delicious, not sludgy or too sweet (like Starbucks), it has just the right amount of sweetness and pumpkin flavor. The ambiance was cool, it's in front of an indoor theatre. Looks like a great place to hangout on the weekends and catch a show or have a drink too! read more

This place is awesome! Some friends and I stopped by here on our way back to the Bay from Sacramento for a quick coffee break. The decor in here was really nice and it's spacious for people who want to come in here to get some work done. There is a variety of pastries (the usual coffee shop stuff plus one vegan option of banana bread). The flavored syrups are housemade, which is a bonus. We ordered: Nitro Cold Brew, Iced Decaf Latte, and Matcha Latte w/Almond Milk + espresso. My friends have been here before and went out of their way to come back here, so that should say something about their opinion of Journey Coffee. As for myself, I have to say the Matcha Latte was superb! I ordered my drink with absolutely no sweetener so all I could taste was the matcha and a hint of the espresso. That's a rare happening. I'm guessing this is not the preference for most palates as straight up matcha can taste a bit bitter. The matcha starts with a bitter bite but finishes really sweet. I forgot to ask what kind of matcha they use, but this place definitely does it right! Minus one star for charging extra for alternative milk. In this day in age, I don't think coffee shops so be charging extra for that since plant milk has a longer shelf life and more than half the population is actually lactose intolerant anyway. Not nice to charge extra for something that more than half the population would potentially be ordering. Just my opinion anyway. We didn't try any of their food, so I can't speak on that stuff this time but I'll be sure to update if/when I do. read more

Needed a hot cup of coffee to start my day and decided to try something new. I'm not a coffee connoisseur by any means, and I naturally had some questions about the selection here. The barista was patient and very informative and I ended up with the South African latte. It was sweet, creamy and uplifted my morning. The vibe inside was something like a chill, dark academia which was something new- I enjoyed it. Ended up coming back the next day to get some work done and was there for about an hour. Love this place, will be back whenever I'm in the area. read more

We decided to try Journey Coffee today as first timers. We were greeted by Sway, who was friendly and happy to share suggestions with us. We tried the South African latte and chai latte with the veggie n egg breakfast wrap. Everything was good and the wrap was fresh! I really like that they had Tapatío packets too. We are looking forward to coming back and supporting this local coffee shop. read more

We got the breakfast handpie, a coconut cocoa latte, and a strawberry banana smoothie. The breakfast handpie said it had cheddar cheese, which is false, it's American. It tastes very similar to a McDonald's breakfast thing aka not good. Latte is alright, they put just a touch of flavoring per my request, but you can't taste any coffee, it's like flavored milk. Strawberry banana smoothie either uses fake banana syrup, or extremely raw bananas, it's just weird, sour bananas?? The guy at the register was nice, and it's cute inside, I honestly don't get where all the 5 stars is coming from. read more

Awesome coffee shop! From what I've heard it's the best coffee shop in the area and I see why. The coffee is good and they have good treats as well. The ambiance of the place was also pretty dope. You can come chill with a friend or study for a few hours. Come check this place out Overall: 4.6 stars read more

Journey Coffee - SF Vanilla Latte and a Nutella Pop Tart - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Vacaville, California

This was a frequent stop for us when we drove to and from the Bay Area to Redding. It's probably one of the best coffee shops around with a great atmosphere. There's plenty of seating and parking with an amazing crew! I always have the medium roast (This time it was a Guatemalan blend) and my wife ordered the Lavender Latte with oat milk. The Guatemalan blend was good. It was not bitter but perfect taste with a hint of sweetness. The lavender latte was "yummy" (one pump of lavender) and was not sweet at all. If you want a good place to relax or a place to connect with friends, then this is your spot. read more

It's becoming a ritual to get up on Saturday morning and go study/do homework or work work with the lovely staff at Journey. The vibe is super chill and the space is appropriately designed with the bar as soon as you walk in and the seating area, complete with benches, tables, statement chats, and outlets everywhere, off to the right. The bathrooms are around the corner in a "separate" room but they're easy to find. There is a moderately sized conference room that I'm assuming is for rent. The staff is always pleasant and ready to help me make a choice when I'm still waking up. This morning I had an undertow with a splash of rose essence mixed into it, a wonderful treat. There food service isn't super fast which makes me happy if I'm being honest, when it comes out it's hot all the way through. Not microwave hot. I have come rather fond of their hand pies and savory scones, so good. I look forward to hanging out with them every week. read more

Journey Coffee - Strawberry Mango Lemonade smoothie, or what's left of it anyway, and homework! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Vacaville, California

Great tasting coffee, and very quick service for how busy they were. Lots of indoor seating with a cute patio.

Solid, go-to cafe like all of the Journeys locations. This location has some nice seating outside and a good deal of seating inside. Love grabbing an iced coffee before going to Sky Jump with my kids. They've always had a decent selection of pastries on hand, too. Well staffed so the line moves quick and drinks and food get out quick, too. Why would you ever go to 'Bucks when you have multiple Journeys to choose from! read more

My husband is a stickler about espresso and he says it is excellent here. The scone was lovely. Nice menu, good service and great coffee. However the music playing during our visit was a heavy metal screechy genre that I imagine would appeal to a limited few. We left earlier than planned because it was not a relaxing environment due to the music. read more

I really used to love this place. I always got the lavender latte and it was my favorite drink to indulge in along with a donut from Donut Queen. Post COVID, the appeal of this place has been completely lost on me. The milk options would vary wildly from location to location, service would be hit and miss, especially when ordering in the app, and wait times would be ridiculous. My signature drink started to taste burnt. Even when I would ask for a remake, it was clear that the simple syrup used to flavor the drink was burnt. I switched to the house brew and even the basic black coffee had an acidis, over brewed aftertaste. It left a metallic taste in my mouth. It's not just my taste buds, normally I would pick up a vanilla latte for the hubs, but he asked me to stop brining him coffee from Journey because he did not like the aftertaste. I enjoy the atmosphere, the employees are genuinely friendly and wonder people, but the coffee is just not good. I would not recommend them as a local place to visit anymore. read more

This has to be one of the most well-known independently owned and operated coffee shops in the Fairfield/Vacaville area and takes me on a "journey" to beautiful Solano County. This is none other than "Journey Coffee". Conveniently located on the right hand side of I-80 (going westbound towards the Bay Area) in a strip mall off of Alamo Dr. & Merchant St. in the heart of Vacaville, this Journey Coffee has been serving up delicious coffee & treats ever since 2013. It is also the first location while opening up two more stores in Fairfield. I came here on the morning of 11/14/2020 before heading across the freeway to do some shopping at the Vacaville Premium Outlets. During my visit, parking wasn't too much of an issue as it was quite spacious. Furthermore, indoor operations were allowed as I was able to order my drink and food item while sitting down at a table; socially distanced of course. The interior layout of this place is very spacious well thought out by separating all of their tables very effectively with the Coronavirus pandemic of 2020/21. Additionally, they have a small area where you can purchase clothing with their business name as well as a cool little wall that reads "You Matter - Journey Coffee Co". Instead of the typical coffee drink, I ended up going chill mode by ordering their "Green Sun Smoothie" (priced at $7.50). This healthy beverage consists of organic spinach, banana, orange, pineapple, greens, and vanilla plant protein. My smoothie was ready within 5 minutes and tasted absolutely delicious. Definitely a big step up of what you'd get at a Jamba Juice or any other big name smoothie shop. During my visit, it was quite busy as many locals or people passing through from Sacramento to the Bay Area enjoy coming here over a Starbucks/Peet's Coffee. I love the wood theme decor as well as the black coffee cups and black chalkboard where the menu is displayed. It is an overall clean, timeless appearance. All in all, I highly suggest visiting "Journey Coffee". They are a unique small business that offers a ton of breakfast & lunch options including avocado toast, paninis, pizza, salads, wraps, and sandwiches. And their beverage department does not disappoint as you can get a variety of hot & cold coffee/espresso drinks, smoothies, & even milkshakes. They even offer a small variety of beer and wine to choose from. With that said and done, I am giving Journey Coffee an above average four-star rating. Great little stop in the heart of Solano County. read more

Came here with my wife and son for a family event. Ordered two chicken wraps and a blt. It was way overpriced and not good. The chicken in the wraps were dry, the wrap overall was dry and the BLT was not good either. Maybe their coffee is good but I don't recommend getting any of the food here. read more

Needed a pit stop for food and ordered the breakfast wrap and sweetened matcha latte. Sorry no pictures as I was hungry. The breakfast wrap was a spinach wrap with tomatoes, eggs, and bacon. Adding tapatio sauce was the perfect combo to satisfy my hunger. For the matcha, I got regular sweetness (which I should of went with half sweet instead) as the drink to me is a tad sweet. But this is coming from someone who typically has drinks at 30% sweetness. Service: staff were nice, however, I didn't know my order was ready until I inquired. For anyone's first time, order is placed on the pick up side, so check there around pickup time first. Ambiance: very modern atmosphere, had some merch on board and plenty of open seatings. Inside isn't too loud, so a good place to catch up with friends or study/work. read more

I have always liked coming to Journey Coffee. The lighting and overall ambiance is coffee shop perfect. It has a slightly modern feel with wood accents. I like the variety of food and drinks they offer. Pre-covid, I used to get local beer from the tap here and kombucha because I'm not much of a coffee drinker. Their pastries and snacks were always delicious. This was my first time getting a sandwich from there. I had the BLTA. The avocado and other ingredients were delicious, fresh, and the perfect ratio. The sourdough bread was a little too stiff and chewy. But overall, I enjoyed it. Will definitely order this sandwich again or try another. I was a little disappointed at the price. When I glanced at the Yelp menus, sandwiches were $7/$8. The sandwiches now are $12/$13. There was a WiFi password and you are able to use their WiFi for an unlimited amount of time. read more

Got a lavender latte. The coffee itself is good. Their syrup is made in-house so the flavor is extra subtle. If you'd like more flavor they allow you to purchase more.
