    Pachamama Coffee! I luv saying the name. Better yet, that's some darn good coffee. The cafes are mainly in Sacramento and the foothills. This particular one is in Placerville, right on touristy Main Street. Well It's actually tucked in a shopping pedestrian alley right off Main Street. The coffee is delicious. I've had their various drip coffees before, all terrific tasting. My usual go to's are their lattes. This time I was in the mood for a seasonal winter drink, wintermint mocha. Yum! I ordered it with oat milk and they don't up charge. The mocha had a smooth, creamy chocolate espresso taste. I even got a pretty design of foamed milk on top of my drink. Aww it was cute. No up charge for that as well and I didn't even ask them to do it Outside the cafe is an outdoor courtyard with bistro tables for folks to sit n enjoy their coffee or whatever. I say whatever because the area is open for all to sit a spell. The courtyard is enclosed with brick buildings around its square perimeter. The buildings provide ample shade and cooling temps in the summer. Plus there is a water fountain that provides a calming zen like sound of trickling water. The cafe also has an indoor seating area. The interior furniture includes tables, sofas, lounge chairs, and high top tables aesthetically giving off modern, minimalist Scandinavian design vibes. Luvin this look.

    Tried this cute coffee spot for the first time and it was super yummy. The baristas were super chill and just good vibes all around. My friend and I got the vanilla iced latte with cold foam and it was so good! The coffee reminded me of Philz coffee, I would def stop by here again.

    This was the nicest coffee shop I've been to in quite awhile and I was very impressed by the quality of coffee and ambiance. They serve organic coffee and I could really taste the difference. They currently have a seasonal menu and their regular menu included some unique options. The maple latte caught my eye; I ordered it with oat milk and it was one of the best coffee drinks I've ever had. Seriously! It wasn't overpoweringly sweet, but there was enough flavor so it actually tasted like a maple latte instead of a warm milk as many special drinks end up tasting from my experience. It's always disappointing to buy an expensive coffee that doesn't have enough flavor, but you'll get what you pay for here. They offer a few little snacks and there is tons of seating (indoor and outdoor!) with beautiful natural light, art and plants. The baristas were kind and helpful and made beautiful latte art. If you love it as much as I did, you can even buy coffee beans and merchandise as well. It's tucked away in downtown placerville and I would highly recommend Pachamama to everyone!

    Prices as of late June 2026. You'd be forgiven to think these were SF / NYC / LA / SV prices.

    Ambience / Atmosphere / 'Vibe' were great. Servers friendly. My cappuccino was a bit on the light side, where as I prefer dark and depth. Overall it's a very nice coffee shop if you like your brew on the lighter side. It's probably the best coffee shop in Placerville.

    Small, quaint little coffee shop, with a smooth espresso and great seating area in the shade. Staff was friendly and made our drinks quickly.

    I am a sucker for boutique coffee and I love that I work right along Main St. so Pachamama is always the first choice for a coffee run. The baristas here are so sweet and love what they do. Service is always attentive and the recommendations are always great when I'm not sure what to get. I love to browse the store while staff members pull the perfect espresso and craft specialty drinks. There's so many bean offerings here from different origins and every bag has a little back story. I love that Pacha is 100% organic and farmer owned! The vanilla bean latte is my usual. You can see and taste the real vanilla bean and when it's mixed into some good espresso and organic milk, it makes for a great start to my day. They also use Rishi barista matcha and it is my favorite brand of matcha blend BY FAR. The flavor is always consistent and never gritty here. They carry lots of yummy syrups that are hard to find in the area. Try the blueberry matcha! There is also a pandan matcha latte that is so creamy and earthy and downright delicious. I love supporting Pachamama and their coffee farmers!

    Upon entering I noticed a lot of nice artwork. We ordered the Pumpkin & Cardamom latte and I tasted a stronger cardamom flavor with a subtle hint of pumpkin. I asked for oat milk but they were out so I opted for almond milk. I like that there's no surcharge for alternative milks, this should be normalized in all cafes! Another drink we ordered was the Criollo Cacao Mocha, which tasted richer and a tad spicy, but it did not seem thoroughly mixed as there were clumps at the bottom. The drink sleeves had nice sayings which was a nice touch too :) We also ordered an almond chocolate chip muffin that was freshly made and still warm. There was a large variety of coffee beans from different places to purchase as well. Although I wished there were more pastry options, this is a cute cafe in a quaint town!

    Stopped in for a cup of Joe and was surprised at how rich the Vanilla Latte tasted along with a fresh baked muffin. Clean place with very friendly young ladies ready to serve.

    On our way to Lake Tahoe, we always stop in Placerville to charge our electric car and visit Pachamama Coffee. They roast their own coffee beans, and you can even buy some to take home. I had the most delicious vanilla latte here for the first time, and my husband tried the Americano, which was also excellent. We highly recommend stopping by for a cup of hot or iced coffee!
