    Perfect Drink on a Hot Day
    Nicole P.

    Hot Day... driving home from work craving an orange dream... walked in at 5:03p and the team was in process of cleaning up. They graciously paused and offered to make the drinks even though I learned they had closed. Thank you for the kindness, and great customer service. The family loved their drinks!!

    Strawberry cloud matcha with oat milk
    Becca D.

    Great coffee shop with lots of options. The staff was friendly and service was quick! I really enjoyed the matcha from here. I've had it both hot and cold and will be adding this to my coffee shop rotation! There's plenty of seating outside so it's a great place to sit back and enjoy the nice weather.

    Avocado toast
    Tamara R.

    Ordered the avocado toast this morning on door dash and as shown on my receipt I did NOT select to have chili flakes put on it. This is not the first time this has happened this is the 3rd or 4th time now. Very disappointed and wasted $12 on this to have it be thrown in the trash.

    Iced Mexican Aztec Mocha

    I was looking for a coffee spot on my commute to Elk Grove and this spot did not disappoint! Everything was amazing. The mocha was perfect with an amazing spice blend. The breakfast sandwich was delicious and the house sauce was like the cherry on top. The staff were very friendly and the atmosphere was welcoming and cozy.

    Display of bagel and sweets

    Unexpectedly came upon this cafe. We were in the area and came two days in a row bc their drinks are great! The first day we came in the late afternoon and it wasn't busy. The next day we came in the morning and it gets really busy but service is quick. The staff were very friendly and patiently explained the menu and answered our questions. First day we ordered: -orange cream refresher: wasn't feeling anything w caffeine. Creamy orange flavor and I like how it's the right contrast of sweetness and creaminess. Very unique fruit smoothie. -mocha Java chip: blended smoothly without any icy bits! Strong coffee flavor with nice texture of tiny chips to chew on. Such a good drink! Second day we ordered: -mocha Java chip (again) since it was so good! -three chocolate mocha: a little on the sweeter side with less coffee flavor but still good! I think it has dark chocolate, white chocolate and vanilla flavor. - powerhouse on croissant: comes with choice of cheese plus lots of meat (bacon, sausage, eggs and ham). The croissant was flaky and crunchy, toasted well without being burnt. Def recommend this one! - bagel with Swiss, eggs and bacon: didn't order it but they have the breakfast powerhouse option on bagel as well. Comes out very hot since they prepare it fresh. The egg serving is very generous and bacon is crunchy. Overall, great option for a yummy breakfast! The price point is right for the quality. They have sweet and savory food options, and different coffee drinks. Their blended drinks are must. Would come back again if I'm in the area!

    CHAGACCINO
    Gail W.

Cold - great size cup and super tasty Food: great variety of pastries, we came late in the day so we didn't get as much of a selection so we didn't get anything. Service: fast and cordial Ambiance: this is the cutest coffee shop. I love the decorative touches with antiques. Old cans of coffee shop related items. Seating is awesome from tables and chairs to couches. Great selection of books and games. Outside there is more seating and a playhouse for little ones. We went in the winter but the sun came out so we can enjoy our coffee while or lil barista made us coffee. The restroom is so cute as well, think old farm house. Ada accommodations: slanted entry, door has two sides which can be fully opened. Wood floors with plenty of room. Lowered counter. Tables easy to access. The restroom is large.

I went not long ago and the lady who attended me was tapping her nails on the counter when I was looking trough the menu and apparently same lady did the same thing to my husband when he would go pick a coffee up for me, we did not take long to order btw. Also big red flag when coffee shops use torani syrup, if I wanted that junk I would go to big chain companies like Starbucks instead.

Anyway for the food, you walk in, line up, order, then find a seat. It was difficult to find seating. It was loud, crowded, and felt a little packed. I think next time I will order my stuff for to go. They had soo many choices. It was hard to pick just one or two things, so we got 4 to share. Everything was delicious. Freshly baked. My favorite was I think it was called croque monsieur? Sough dough bread, I think maybe bechamel and cheese, and veggies. It was hard to cut so I just ate it with my hands. The concha was also really nice, still soft the next day.

We walked in and saw the huge huddle by the phone order pick up area. We decided to go next door and get our drink order. We waited next door for about 3-5 minutes and then went back to Noah's to grab our phone / app order. We saw a line still for the phone order/ delivery order pick up. We patiently waited for 10 minutes and did not hear any orders being called out. I walked over to the rack that had three items that were still sitting since we originally walked in. I was trying to see the name on the bag. I was promptly scolded by the lady that was supposed to be calling out names and packaging the orders. She said " don't touch those, that's why there is a rope." I started: in the 10 minutes that we had been standing there waiting she had not called out the names for those items and I was checking to see how if they might be ours. She was rude about it. She waited a bit more and then called out those items names. There was now a few more items that were sitting on the counter rack that still had not been called out. But we waited. It was 1152 and I walked up to the counter and said our order should have been done close to 30 minutes ago. And the phone order lady was rude, and not really calling out orders so people could know if theirs was ready. The nice lady that was taking regular orders let me know that they only had 6 egg cookers. And they were doing the best they could. (Understandable) however the phone order lady could be calling out orders more often so if someone that walked in would know if theirs was ready and sitting there. Overall the food was still good but owner / manager/ corporate needs to address the lack of egg cookers and have some type of board that states what orders are ready so customers are not standing there for 30 minutes wondering where there order is.

My friend saw that Elk Grove Donuts released their new young coconut series and wanted us to try it. We came around 11 am on a Saturday and it was pretty busy! We ordered two young coconut sticky rice pandan donuts, one young coconut pandan donut, young coconut matcha, and matcha latte. Everything together cost over $41, which we thought was a little ridiculous for donuts and matcha drinks. We were also shocked how small the young coconut matcha was when it came out. Kinda disappointed on the taste too as it was pretty telling when it wasn't a vibrant green. The matcha latte was just okay. The donuts of course were really pretty, but in reality it wasn't with the price over a normal donut. I think it would have been better if the flavors were incorporated into the donut itself versus it just having the frosting and toppings. Both are very heavy, so be prepared for a nap! It was extremely sweet too and a lot compared to the donut itself. Overall, I don't think I'd come back for their speciality donuts. They are pretty overhyped online, however I would be happy to try their normal donuts.
