Visiting Sacramento for work and found this great, little coffee shop. Nice and cozy, with friendly service. A nice variety of coffees and teas. I went twice and ordered the honey latte and honey matcha latte. Great use of honey, while still being able to taste the coffee and matcha. I'll be returning the next time I'm back in Sacramento! read more

Nice coffee shop for those who enjoy sweetened coffee treats. The location is good for those walking around the area, and I could easily see those working nearby grabbing a cup here. Prices are not listed on the menu, so I had to ask. Again though, I appreciate how friendly the staff was about answering. Barista offered to make me an Americano with flavor and added non-dairy milk for a more bargain version of a latte where my added non-dairy preference would have cost a bit more. I was asked to try the drink and see if I liked it or if it needed to be adjusted. It was good but bit sweet for me, so I asked for a bit more coffee which was ok. I appreciated the care, so of course I tipped the addition I would have paid for a latte :) I'll need to try a drip on its own to truly sample the coffee itself, but the staff was incredibly friendly and provides excellent service. read more

So while walking in I saw 2 people walking out with nice wonderful drinks. One was chai latte and one was pumpkin spice latte. BUt when you look at both drinks the whipped creme really caught my eye! So pumpkin spice latte it was! . Ice pumpkin spice latte- the drink was like 6 bucks . The size was a large. The drink was quality! It was good I did love how smooth it was and not too sweet. It was rich in flavor. . The inside is cute and can't wait to come here and sit down and enjoy the nice interior. . Overall I had a good drink. Love me some pumpkin spice latte during fall time!

A surreal coffee moment, indeed. This cafe is small but comfy. The mocha was sweet and smooth. As for the honey cream latte, I'm not sure about the taste but nice texture though. This cafe is in doco sacramento. A fine quick coffee stop at your pace. read more

I got their seasonal carrot cake latte and it tasted just like a carrot cake. I have to try their regular drinks next. The place inside is so cute however the parking is an issue. There is no parking near by so it kind of sucks unless you're already parked somewhere in the area or live near by read more

I love that there are so many amazing places in the area to grab coffee. Roots is definitely one of those amazing coffee places in town. Roots in located in DOCO and is sort of next to Getta Clue. Roots is not big inside but is beautifully decorated and love the hanging plants by the windows. We tried the Honey Cream Latte, White Chocolate Mocha, Affogato, and the Croiffle (croissant + waffle). We enjoyed the expresso drinks, the affogato was alittle on the sweet side for me. The croiffle was pretty good and beautifully plated. We didn't try any of their other food items since we just had lunch, but we will definitely come back to try the Avocado toast that looks amazing in the photos lol. Come give Roots a try if you are looking for a great coffee that also serves Instagramable food. read more

Roots is the cutest coffee shop! I loved the ambiance. It's conveniently located in DOCO. I orders my usual, an excellent iced mocha, and it was great. They have many milk alternatives and a great little bakery case. read more

I stopped in 2 days in a row for coffee (their food menu is still unavailable - bummer!) & enjoyed the tasty Honey Cream Latté with almond milk, with a side of sleek, boho vibes & friendly service. There was no wait at 8, but the location probably isn't convenient unless you're parking in one of the nearby garages & walking. read more

If you are staying at the Kimpton, now you have choices for your coffee and breakfast. This little place was super cute. And the food is prepared beautifully!! (See picture) And, it is right across the street. I ordered an Americano and the avocado toast. My americano was full flavored (but I did add a shot) :) The avocado toast came out and I was very impressed with the presentation, and the taste. (Ps. I did not know what lemon chèvre was, so be aware that it is a type of goat cheese)-and yummy!! The service was good, no smile, but I will survive. The place is small so it can get a little loud. Give this place a try.....and try not to take a picture of your food - just kidding, please do!! read more

Posting from out of town, we always look for local coffee in the morning. I ordered the Homey Cream Latte, and my wife an Americano. Both were excellently crafted beverages, and the service was great. We asked for extra shots, and they helped us make the most of them. Ambiance was classic coffee shop, and the limited seating options were still comfortable. read more

I went to Roots Coffee with my wife on a Saturday afternoon. She had an almond milk latte with Splenda - because they didn't have agave - and i had an espresso with 1/2&1/2 on ice. They do not roast their own beans. We sat on a sofa, which was nice. We were able to sit close together and enjoy each other's company. The coffee was fine, nothing special, not terrible. What got to me over the 1 1/2 hours we were there was the music. Nothing but singer-songwriters with acoustic guitars. I don't go to coffee shops for the music, but at some point it just insisted upon itself. I hope they have other music, because i had enough. We actually went to a different coffee shop later, in part to avoid the music at Roots. read more

This place is very cute and cozy! My coworkers and I came to stop by before our meeting. We ordered Iced Honey Cream Latte which is very gooooooood! With love. read more

You know what I like more than coffee shops? NEW coffee shops. Roots is located next to Subway on 5th and J. There's no parking so it's a little much to go to before work so we decided to take a break yesterday and walk a few blocks from the office to check it out. As soon as we went inside, my eyes immediately went to all the toasts they had in the display case. I loved that they had different toasts instead of just the annoyingly popular avocado. Not an avocado fan - fight me. They had all the essential coffees including some fancy ones that I definitely need to come back and try! Coffee Shake, Nitro Shake, Shakarato! I settled on an Iced Latte Mint Macchiato and my boss ordered the Honey Cream Latte. Both were good - I liked the Honey Cream better, but I loved that the Macchiato only had a hint of mint and wasn't overloaded. They have different flavored Kombuchas too and plenty of seating inside. Staff was friendly and patient as we drooled over the toasts for a while before placing our orders! They had a chicken sandwich that looked pretty tasty too! We'll be back for sure...probably tomorrow. And the next day and the next day and the next day... read more

Decided to try this place today instead of walking to Starbucks. Ordered an iced honey cream latte and everything bagel with cream cheese. Coffee is amazing. Honey on coffee is new to me but it works wonderfully. Not overly sweet like caramel drinks from SB. Service was great. She was quick and very friendly. Ambiance is nice too. The decor is modern, black and gold accents with leather seating. Glad I found this place. Will stop by again next time I'm downtown. read more

This place is small. Not a place to plan on hanging out. A few small tables and a small bar like table. Great coffee. Honey Cream Latte is what I love here and can't get other places. I have been 3-4 times while in town for work. People are always nice and service is quick. read more

The ambiance here is great! Beautiful decor, clean, very nice. They are clearly dog friendly as they keep complimentary treats for your furry friend on hand! I got the Brown Sugar Oatmilk Shakarato & my husband got an iced latte with simple syrup. He likes his latte! Mine was ok. If I did it again, I'd probably get the iced brown sugar Oatmilk latte. The shakarato has more milk in it and I think that threw the taste off for me. Very nice staff though and I'd definitely go back and try that drink a different way if I lived there (just visiting)! read more

Very welcoming. Chill vibe to cool down and sip a cup of coffee. Unique coffee flavors and they can make yours decaf as well .

Cortado breve was delicious with a cute heart shape design. Clean cafe. Beautiful and calming interior near DOCO

It's a cute little cozy spot with flavorful coffee options. The mocha is my go to and it definitely has a fresh new flavor I love. Breakfast items are currently limited but there are a few items to choose if you're hungry. The awesome thing I must say is that if you're craving dessert they have the perfect Affogato for you, breakfast or lunch treat! read more

What I really needed was something to hold my kids and I over before we had a real meal. We were in the area so I turned to Yelp to help me figure out where we're going. The good reviews and pretty food pictures sold me. Specifically, I was hoping to get a delicious avocado toast for myself and croiffles for the kids (sounded so interesting!). We parked in a nearby paid parking garage, walked over to Roots, but sadly, found out that the only food they had was limited to just a few baked goods (mostly vegan) and some parfaits/overnight oats. I asked if they had any other items and was told this was it. I wasn't going to leave and start the search all over with my kids in tow. Ended up buying 3 different baked items to give us something to curb our appetites. None of the items were standouts. My vanilla latte was weak and unmemorable. The only nice thing about this place was the cleanliness and pretty interior. Everything else was lacking - selection, taste, customer service. Will not be returning. Too bad Yelp was misleading this time... goes to show that writing updated reviews is so helpful to others! Hope this review saves someone else from making the effort to visit this place only to find a sad ending. read more

I truly enjoyed this place, but I went in this morning for a coffee with my dog, and the woman told me, "You can wait outside, and I'll bring out your drink." I thought this was rude because she didn't even ask if my dog was a service dog. The reason I'm upset at the interaction is because there are respectful ways to communicate. I truly wouldn't have mind doing it at all, but the way it was communicated was unprofessional and made me feel discriminated. I will no longer be returning. read more

I'll be dreaming about their Honey cream latte (warm) for days - so so good and just the right amount of sweetness and creaminess without asking to adjust anything, and that's coming from someone who is very particular about sweetness level of drinks. Their regular size was $6 but totally worth it. I'll be coming back frequently! Wish parking situation was easier. The lady who made my drink was super nice too. Cute and clean ambiance with nice looking plants, would be a good place to study or work on things. Have complimentary dog treats too! read more

Walking around the DOCO area, showing my big brother around who was in town visiting, we decided we needed a little caffeine boost. I had Roots Coffee bookmarked and we decided to give it a try. Wanting to support a small local business, we were thrilled with our experience. The interior is very chic and modern and I wish that we had been able to stay and enjoy our beverage in the ambience (stupid COVID). The barista was extremely friendly and knowledgeable and patient with me as I was trying to make up my mind on my order. I opted for a flavored iced latte - hazelnut with oat milk. This is hands-down one of the best lattes I have ever had. My brother ordered their nitro coffee and said the same thing about his. The one big bummer is parking - you either have to park in a garage and walk or find (distant) street parking and walk. It is not easily accessible from the street because of the Golden One arena and downtown traffic patterns. But the next time you find yourself in the area wanting a special coffee treat, take the few extra minutes to come out of your way and try Roots Coffee. read more

Little hidden coffee shop in DOCO. I had one of the specials of the day , which was a Tiramisu latte. It was really good not too sweet! Can definitely still taste the coffee! The shop itself was small but still provided seating and wifi, which was great. The barista was very friendly and knowledgeable! Will definitely visit again! read more

I've visited Roots Coffee three times now and it keeps getting better. I wouldn't call myself a coffee expert by any means, but I can tell a good cup when I taste one. The con panna, which is a mix of espresso and equal parts milk and foam, is that drink for me. However, the latest treat I discovered is that they serve a good variety of fresh bites as well. Sure, you have your usual coffee shop options like pastries, but they serve a whole host of classy snacks, too. From tuna melts, avocado toast and pesto pizza to chicken sandwiches and yogurt parfait, there is something for everyone. I'm a particular fan of the extra healthy and fresh Garden & Grains salad, which comes with diced raw vegetables, mixed grains, a house vinaigrette dressing, orange pieces and mediterranean oven-roasted chicken. The beans and brewing skills they offer here are exceptional and more than enough to impress. It's the combination of coffee, food and a chill atmosphere that will keep me coming back time and again. read more

This is a nice coffee place just on the outside of DOCO. Hard to get to if you're driving, and I had to find parking on the street. If you work in downtown, check this place out. I'm on a hunt of lavender coffee so I'm glad I found this place. I came by, 30 minutes before closing. It's super cute insides I can't wait till everything opens back up again so I can sit down and enjoy the ambiance and vibes of this place. Ordered the honey lavender coffee.. it was a bit milky for me but if it had less dairy, I think it could be better. I can def taste the hint of lavender and it was not overpowering at all. They did not have any food available.. their food options look good. Would come back here again and try other drinks on their menu. read more

A friend and I stopped by here a few weeks back as our interest was piqued by their stylish farm-to-fork images on their site of their sandwich and cafe goodies. I ended up getting a honey latte and a croiffle, which was a bit on the small side, but it was only $3. I also got a ricotta toast in addition to the croiffle since I was pretty hungry and hadn't eaten breakfast. Served on thick toast, this concoction was quite tasty as well. We were quite pleased with the offerings. They also had iced tea samplings at the bar as well. As other reviewers mention, there's no pricing listed on the inside menu, which is kind of a pain, the the service and food were all top notch! read more

I was in Sacramento on business and stayed at the holiday inn. I checked on Yelp for a nearby coffee shop and Roots coffee came up. I checked their page and was sold amongst all the other choice. It was an opposite walk to my meeting location every day but so worth the extra time because the almond milk latte and the yogurt parfait was just that: parfait! The service was great, the place is so darn charming I snapped pictures every day I went. Unfortunately they were not serving food anymore but that was okay. I would strongly recommend. Not the less expensive place, $14 for a latte and yogurt but you get what you pay, that is quality! read more
