I came in for a cup of coffee and had no idea I was about to have a full-blown amazing breakfast! They have everything from strawberry banana pancakes to açaí bowls. My boyfriend got the breakfast burrito which was 10/10. Not to mention the service, everyone was stoked to be there with big smiles all around. I'm so happy I found this gem, definitely a reason to come back to Old Sac. I highly recommend.!! read more

Don't get to Old Sacramento much these days. We had some relatives come into town and they really wanted to go to the railroad museum and see the rest of Old Sac. We got there mid-morning and were looking for something to eat. We ended up at Steamer's and the 6 of us had omelettes, pancakes and coffees that we all enjoyed. Service was attentive and caring. We left thinking we got great value and left and had a great visit at the museum. We won't hesitate to take our next guests that visit to Steamer's. read more

My wife and I have always wanted to stop here after passing through it so many times at old Sacramento. Stepped inside noticed they had a good side, lunch menu, and lots of coffee. We ordered some coffee had a sandwich. The customer service was great. Everybody was so friendly, helping us with options and what to order. The coffee was really good, but I'm picky about coffee so it's nice to find somewhere that had good options and the coffee tastes good as they say read more

One of our favorite things to do with my wife and dog is walk around Old Sac. We do it a lot for dog socializing, but this weekend we showed up with another mission... breakfast. We finally decided to check out Steamers and really enjoyed it! The spot is small but super cute and has a cozy little vibe to it. We ordered two breakfast croissant sandwiches along with guava mimosas... and honestly, no explanation is needed there. That combo already speaks for itself. Another huge plus was that our dog was able to hang out with us in the outside seating area. I will say the patio space is a little tight, so just keep that in mind if you're bringing a dog. Luckily, Lobo is basically a retired old man trapped in a younger dog's body, so he just relaxed the whole time. Overall, it was a great first experience. Good food, good drinks, and a nice little morning spot in Old Sac. We'll definitely be back again on another weekend morning. read more

Don't go if you don't want to feel icky. My husband and I stopped in for a light breakfast on a recent trip to Sacramento. He ordered pancakes to share & coffee; I had a mocha. The pancakes weren't cooked all the way (like, literally still raw, wet, cold batter in the middle). How hard is it to make pancakes?! My mocha was burnt and the only alternative to cow's milk they had was almond, so it was also pretty thin & watery with very little flavor. Watery, burnt mocha does not equal happiness. I didn't taste my husband's coffee but he said it was nothing special. I also wanted to wash my hands when we got there. I asked for the restroom code but once I was inside, I wasn't too confident. The restroom looked like it hadn't had a thorough clean in a LONG TIME. Dirt. Grime. Mildew. I didn't want to touch anything after I washed my hands. Then when I came back out to the eating area, I started noticing all the dirt & grime & general untidiness of the whole place. I'm not a germaphobe, but I do want a place that's preparing food I'm going to eat to be clean. But every surface in this place was sticky or oily or dirty. We like to try local places when we travel, and it was recommended by the hotel, so we were pretty disappointed. If you want a clean eating establishment with edible food & nice coffee, I would look elsewhere. I wouldn't come back here if you paid me. read more

Since they were one of the few places open early, four of us stopped here to grab something small for breakfast. Their breakfast burrito and croissant breakfast sandwich were delicious. Coffee is also solid, but they totally forgot to bring out one of our orders. A big negative is the homeless that tend to hang out here. A key pad to access the bathroom is an indicator that this seems to be a frequent issue. read more

Burger, fries, and a canned soda was $29 and some change. The burger comes with a salad, but if you want fries it's another $3.50. This place is waaaaaay overpriced. If you are looking to drop $30 on lunch for one person there are much better options nearby, but not in Old Sacramento. Look elsewhere. read more

Stopped in after a long walk with my dogs and was met with the friendliest helpful staff... the vibe was welcoming relaxed and genuinely eager to help. They offered my dogs water and talked me thru all the menu options. Their turkey cranberry Pannni was delicious and the fries hot and perfectly crispy.....sitting on the patio watching all the people was the perfect way to spend a Sunday Afternoon. Highly recommend and will be back !!!! read more

We came to Old Sac early for the St. Patrick's Day parade and decided to have breakfast at Steamers. We ordered at the counter and decided to eat outside on a beautiful Saturday morning. The main reason I came here was for the Irish Coffee. I had my first ever two years back at the last St. Patrick's parade and loved it. Right amount of whiskey that's wasn't too overpowering so good. The pancakes I ordered were fluffy and the bacon and eggs were nice. She enjoyed her Denver Omelet's fresh veggies. I always enjoy stopping here for coffee whenever I visit Old Sac. The staff are very friendly and I love their coffee options. read more

Wonderful food and great service. Steamers has an impressive breakfast and lunch menu, and their sandwiches are always good. The servings are perfect for lunch and always delicious. If you're looking for a good lunch spot, this is the place to try! Service is always quick and friendly. I'm determined to go back every week to try them all. read more

Went with some lovely ladies to Steamers. Ordered our food and sat outside. I ordered a vegetable omelette with tater tots. Aimee had pancakes, Ms. Baradat had a breakfast burrito and Selene had breakfast sandwich. Everyone said their food was just "Okay". My omelette was bland and needed more seasoning, at least to me. Would I go back maybe . Service and location makes me want to maybe go back. Anyway what's next? read more

I am giving this place 3 Stars and here's why... The antique decor in here is so cool, picture worthy. I hope this is not the norm for this place but the coffee was so bad, we had to send it back. It tasted stale and acidic to the max. We thought it might have been the syrup but we changed our drinks and it was the same. The employee behind the counter was very nice though. She didn't give us a hard time about it nor were we rude about the coffee. I wish I had something better to say. I am not an expert so not going to offer my theories on why the coffee was bad but I hope it was figured out and just a one off. Written with good intentions. read more

Visited December 18th..see my receipt as always. The location is perfect at the old waterfront Sacramento as it's right across from the hotel! They open at 8am and it's always very clean inside. I had the 2 timer breakfast with 2 eggs..2 pancakes and bacon. Chef Sergio always makes my bacon extra crispy! Alittle expensive but expected in this area. Strong coffee!!! Great location! Ps. Someone recently posted this is the only coffee place open at 8am. Incorrect... .there are 2 others in same vicinity that also open at 8am! read more

First off it's open on Sunday morning earlier than the other restaurants, so there's that. It's a great place to grab a quick breakfast or lunch (they are Not open for dinner), tater tots instead of hashbrowns. I had the breakfast sandwich on croissant and added spinach cuz I needed some greens. Nicely prepared; my eggs weren't overly cooked nor under. Service was good and they have Bloody Marys and Irish coffees if you would care to partake in early morning libations as well as mimosas. You can sit on the outside patio which I did just to be outside (it was a beautiful day) can't pass that opportunity to enjoy the outside. The inside is nice as well, they do ask that you bus your own dishes and you walk up and order then bring it out to you. And just across the street from the riverwalk! read more

A great place to drink coffee, sit outside, and enjoy old town. Super cool vibe inside! My go to is the breakfast croissant!

Well for one, our food came out 'steaming' hot!!! The ambiance was a bit noisy but that means there's good service all around. Ordered a breakfast burrito and let me tell you... phenomenal, egg was cooked just right, tortilla was soft and yummy, can't go wrong with the classic burrito. The staff were very welcoming, The young lady with the blonde hair greeted us, she was very sweet and helped us take our order, the servers dished out the plates efficiently as well. 10/10 in all departments, well done! read more

Very cool cafe right in the heart of historic Old Town Sacramento. You are surrounded by a lot of touristy stores, but each has its own theme and atmosphere. Service was good, you can tell the staff were busy trying to balance indoor and outdoor diners. Food was good, clam chowder was jammed packed with goodness, Italian sodas were good, and burgers were stacked a mile high. read more

We were here on Saturday morning. It was busy, but not slammed. There were lots of people having breakfast. There were a couple tables inside and a couple more outside that were free. We took a high top table with no stools. We were second in line, so it wasn't bad. We ordered the banana nut muffin. It was dry and over $4. Not worth it. We'll have to order something different next time. They are the only coffee shop in Old Sac so everyone is here. Prices are really steep here, it's probably due to it's a tourist area. My husband also got a thai tee Mocha, He said it was really good. There are not strategically placed garbage cans around, so everyone was piling up their trash and dirty dishes on one of their barrels. I took a long look around and finally realized they have a water station in the back next to a recycling can, but no trash can. read more

Over priced. Expect to spend $80 for lunch for a family of 3. No refills on any beverages.

Happening spot with a friendly, efficient staff. Order and pay, pick a table inside or out and your food is delivered to you fairly quickly. We both had the mushroom, fresh spinach, carmelized onion and cheese omelet which was hearty and tasty. The potatoes were bland so didn't eat them but the omelet alone was worth the price. Pleasant spot across the street from the river, a lovely way to start your day. read more

March 24, 2026 Update now 1,380 (one thousand three hundred eighty)! Came back maybe February 2026. Hotel stay, avoid Football Sunday Super Bowl hype. Bowl of soup of the day. Cost of seven dollars eighty one cents with tax. That not bad price. Thank goodness especially on that football day, no televisions in the restaurant. Okay, so seven dollars eighty one cents with tax! Reasonable, good for cold temperature days! With apologies to former Governator, I Will Be Back. Yes, Arnold, yes Governator, for sure I will be back to Steamers! Thank to the people of Old Town Visitor Center for sending me to Steamers! read more

Stopped in for lunch with my friend and decided to sit out front, we got some ice teas & turkey sandwiches. They were hot sandwiches so we weren't too sure but then tasted them & they were GREAT! The turkey bacon with pesto I will come back for. We met the owner & he was so nice & accommodating. He also owns some restraunts where we are from (Fresno) so we will def have to check those out as well! read more

I'm glad we came upon Steamers! We arrived for breakfast, and it was one of the only places open so we headed in for food and coffee. The menu is full of yummy items, coffee, shakes, and they had some breakfast specials. Here you order at the counter, and they bring your food to your table when it's ready. The food came out really fast. The servers and front counter staff were so friendly and welcoming! I enjoyed one of their Açaí bowls, Naughty and Nice. It was delicious and filling! I also had an iced coffee which was great. The inside seating was small but we managed to get a large table. There are a lot of fun photos and resin memorabilia to check out while you're waiting for food. I would definitely return to Steamers. read more

We came in here for a nice cold drink. I ordered the Cold Chi Latte and it was delicious and not badly priced. There was a little bit of a wait but they were getting orders put quickly. The bathroom is clean and locked which is nice because you can trust the cleanliness. We met the owner and he was super friendly and respectful. He gave my daughter a cookie which I thought was very nice. Their bakery items are fresh and everyone's meals looked amazing. We cant wait to come back next time to try more. read more

Service was outstanding. We walked in not knowing it was literally closing as the hours said they closed at 6pm. We were greeted not felt as if we were being rushed to finish eating. The BLT wass amazing and so was the classic cheeseburger. They both come with a side salad which was also amazing we ordered a side of fries they were Amazing. We love the western theme they had back to the future 3 playing. Tables were clean and place smelt amazing read more

We came in on a busy Saturday afternoon, but there were surprisingly plenty of tables available. They have seating inside and outside. They have one restroom available and you'll need staff to unlock it before using it. We got to the register, read the menu board above, and placed our order. The staff are friendly and patient. We received our food quickly. Everything tasted light, fresh, and great. No complaints. If you're sitting outside, you have a nice view of the train going by. If you're lucky, you can find parking right in front of the restaurant. If not, there's a parking garage within walking distance. read more

Breakfast and brunch placed tucked away in Old Town Sac. Open early and great for a quick breakfast, pastry, or a cup of coffee. Prices are a bit high, which may be expected given the heavily tourist-trafficked area that it's located in. Staff is friendly and efficient. Nearby street parking is typically metered. Depending on when you're here, it can be readily available or tricky to find a spot. Nearby the railroad museum if you're looking for a place to eat before going and checking out that facility. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating for a nice day if you want to people watch or soak in some sun. Food quality itself was OK - we had the acai bowls, and they felt frozen and generic with ingredients that didn't taste all that fresh. read more

We stopped by with my husband for a quick coffee break, but honestly, it didn't feel welcoming. There was a long line, and compared to other nearby spots, this café felt slower and less organized. The coffee was $6 -- not a huge difference from other places nearby that charge $5, but enough to make me pause and expect something a little better in return. Unfortunately, it didn't deliver. The interior had a damp smell -- like old wood or moisture -- which made it hard to enjoy the space. It just didn't feel cozy or inviting. The whole atmosphere felt a bit sad and worn-out. I'm glad we tried it once, but I wouldn't return or recommend it. There are better cafés just steps away. read more

I don't know, man I wanted to give this place a shot at earning my business. I went in here for breakfast and got the $17.50 blueberry pancakes. ($19.08) after tax They advertise this is being fresh blueberries scratch made pancakes, but 17.50 and that's all you get three tiny pancakes and worst of all no maple syrup. And no butter despite advertising it. It's like fake store-bought thin syrup topping. on top of that the lady had the nerve to charge me a transaction fee on my debit card talking about convenience fee. The convenience is that I came in here to attempt to spend my earned money and you had the audacity to charge me a fee for using my money at your location when your food isn't even that good. If you want exceptional breakfast head on over to "Brookfields" the pancake breakfast there for $17 includes eggs and bacon and potatoes and toast and is 1000% better than this one. Also the white mocha was unmemorable so nothing great to mention there. If you like showing off in old sac while being disappointed in your food and overcharged come here. If you want delicious breakfast go somewhere else read more
