The small Coffee and a pastry shop inside the old company store building. We stopped in recently while in town with a friend. Walk up counter service, there is usually a line but it moves quickly. We placed our beverage and pastrt orders, paid and they call your name when its ready. Fresh strong coffee, and daily bakery items. My large black drip was very good and my baked treat as well. We sat out in the common area in front of the shop. This little spot is busy, has fresh daiky baked goods and serves a variety of coffee drinks for most any taste 4 Stars a solid choice for coffee in town 01183 read more

**Do not get the matcha** We spent $15.50 + tip on 2 marchas and a gluten-free cookie. The cookie was delicious, but both marchas were not mixed well at all. We couldn't get a drink of it without getting bitter chunks of unmixed matcha. We ended up throwing both away as soon as we walked outside and went somewhere else to get another. Staff was friendly and the cookie was good. But I don't think they know how to properly make matcha so don't get that. I'm sure the coffee is good but we didn't try that. read more

The service and cookies were fine. The chocolate chip and walnut chocolate chip cookies were ok but not mind blowing. It was late in the day. The real weak point was my beverage, an almost undrinkable vanilla latte. The coffee itself was very bitter and there was barely any vanilla in it. I finished it but I didn't enjoy it because of the weird aftertaste. My kid's hot cocoa was good. I don't think I will go back. read more

See all

A cute little corner coffee shop with baked goods! We received a coupon flyer from our hotel for buy one large latte/mocha get a free cookie so of course we jumped on the deal since we were downtown. We ordered a large mocha, it was perfect and reasonably priced. What was even better was all of their cookies options!! I'm a chocolate fan sooo my son and I both ordered the chocolate fudge cookie, it was soo good with the coffee or just by itself! There were plenty of other yummy options, I would have loved to try the snickerdoodle and chocolate chip, next time! read more

I'm picky about my baked goods, and Zappa's delivers up soft cookies with great flavors. I had the chocolate chip, peanut butter, fudge chocolate, and ginger spice. All were fantastic. I also liked my tea, but most of all, I liked the very friendly and warm service. Nice people, good cookies: what's not to love? read more

Zappa's - a bowl of cookies and waffles - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Fort Bragg, California

We love organic coffee so Zappa's is the place to go. Once again, customer service was incredible and the coffees were top notch! Another must see in Fort Bragg! We loved seeing Jherica again and the smile she brings everywhere she goes. read more

The worst matcha I've ever had! I like it unsweetened - that wasn't the problem. It was so bitter, so strong, they added far too much matcha powder. Would not recommend for Matcha! Cookies were delicious! read more

I loved my vanilla latte. It was very creamy and just the way I like it. I grabbed a peanut butter cookie while I was there and it was yummy. Very nice staff a d very prompt service! read more

Wide selection of delicious brewed coffees sure to please even coffee snobs (like me) poured alongside a mix of locally baked edibles that range from savory to sweet. We tried the bold-blend coffee-of-the-day and several items from the case (filled-croissant, lemon poppyseed muffin, green chili cheese scone & a cookie) and enjoyed everything. read more

Zappa's - Matcha latte with organic coconut milk! Sweetened with Agave! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Fort Bragg, California

Best place for coffee in Fort Bragg, very friendly service and those croissants are fresh of the morning, to die for. Something i was not really expecting considering that initially i thought that would be a classy old school coffee shop and then when I arrived saw it was embedded in one of those strange shopping centers where you get a mix of businesses that somehow do not match together. read more

Grabbed coffee on our way out of Fort Bragg. I ordered a mocha with hazelnut and my husband ordered a house coffee. Snagged a few cookies for the road as well. Not much to really say besides the fact it was quick, priced well, service was friendly, and they make really good espresso drinks. I noticed upon looking at some Yelp photos they do 'pending coffees'. Wish I knew, I would have bought one or two pending coffees. I will be back next time I'm in Fort Bragg. read more

Eggnog latte for this holiday season. The latte was great and I'm a super coffee fanatic that isn't easily impressed ‍ Backpacker cookie was read more

Absolutely the best Americano, Cappuccino and pastries. The Americano is creamy and smoky, the wet cappuccino with a swirl of milk and espresso is wonderful. Just right with sweet treats and more. Did we mention the great baristatas? Julie and Jim, enjoy! read more

Zappa's - Americano! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Fort Bragg, California

Being a big fan of Frank Zappa and of the coffee bean I had to check out this shop. Well, it has no relation to Frank (no fault of their own) and very little relation to coffee. The staff is friendly, and the cookies are good but being in the tourist zone they are expensive. The coffee is weak. I do not want to nit pick but coffee should be strong enough to make your hair itch. This coffee could not even take tarnish off of an old silver spoon. I thought a previous review by Jessie B was a bit tough regarding the coffee. Sadly my Zappa's coffee suffered the same fate. read more

Great coffee and service. And....Wait for it....Wait for it... They take credit cards! In 2016 no less! What a concept! Will be back, don't forget to get the cookies. (: read more

We found the coffee to be awesome! The pastries to be outstanding! The goodies come from a local bakery - Mendocino Bakery. The coffee - Thanksgiving Coffee, a local roaster here in Ft. Bragg..." ***The area for improvement would be the staff. We've been in the coffee shop dozens of times and found most of the staff (especially one girl in particular) to be less than enthusiastic about working there...more interested in keeping a depressed, less than interested demeanor with NO smile, than making each customer feel welcome. An already negative gossipy conversation with a coworker (on every occasion we visit) gets interrupted by a happy smiling paying customer..." read more

I am a big fan of tasty beverages, and holy moly does this place have those figured out. One fateful day I ordered a 16oz mocha. There is impressive menu and they have the ingredients to make probably anything you could desire. This mocha was sweet and and powerful, but not overwhelmingly so. Think crisp, warm high five from Mr. Rogers on your tongue. I slowly savored this divine beverage, but it quickly changed my life. All of the friendly, cheerful employees are gifted with abilities not found in mere mortals. These are deities from the heavens sent to enrich your day. Tip them accordingly. 10/10 Would repeat this experience again in a heartbeat. Tell your friends. Tell someone who appears to be having a bad day. Do yourselves a favor and go support! read more

I've been going to Zappa's for a long time now, and it is definitely one of my favorite local coffee shops in Ft Bragg. Usually my "go to" if I happen to be around. Top things I like: - Organic Coffee - Friendly service - Can pay with credit/debit card - WiFi / some outlets -Fairly convenient location with parking on main street or the back of the Company Store Building. I've Never have had a poor experience here, and I doubt I ever will. read more

Hmmm wonder if we visited on an "off" day... Cookies were ok. Shortbread was dry. Walnut chocolate chip was really sweet. And the drinks were meh. Vanilla latte was mediocre. A true "vanilla" latte. I had a dirty chai. Just not a very distinct drink. Almost as if the medium size was too large for the ingredients. Lots of other great reviews though you ymmv read more

I love this little coffee shop. We visited Fort Bragg last weekend and came to Zappas all three days! I'm still craving the coffee and pastries from here. Prices are very fair; I got a house coffee each day (added a splash of half and half) and tried several different scones. Pastries are made fresh daily and coffee was so delish. The owner was so cheerful and friendly. I told my husband that it's a good thing we didn't live close by as I'd be there every day. Yummmm read more

I love the coffee and lattes here! They even have almond or coconut milk as alternatives to dairy or soy milk, something I really appreciate. Cookies, muffins, and other baked goodies are made there and are delicious. Right now they have pumpkin pie cookies....yummy! read more

Excellent coffee very rich and the creme comes through wonderfully right up there with Pete's coffee in Richmond. Such wonderful flavor I can actually enjoy it without sweetener. The staff is great too, they let me see what milk they use so I can keep track of my calories and nutrition. There are also some yummy cookies available. Best coffee in Fort Bragg. read more

Very good coffee! I love coffee and I like to try all small cafe's in the area's that I am staying. This I can honestly say is some of the best coffee I have had. The woman that served me I think owned the cafe, so she was very nice, social, and interactive about how we liked our coffee. They (especially with my mother) tailor your coffee beverage to exactly how you like it. Great place to get your morning fix! read more

Very nice. Good coffee, great pastries, free wifi, huge seating area in historic logging company building. Staff is friendly and efficient. Definitely would do again! read more

Mmm. Coffee and a stroll through a historic mall. Had a little trouble finding it at first but that's because I was desperately low on caffeine. read more

WORTH THE STOP!! Nice little expresso cafe, coffees are really nice, we were actually blown away as someone before had paid for the next persons coffee which was ours.. awesome!! . Pastrys are nice and light and the glue ten free cookies are really nice as well read more

A fine cup of coffee served in a cardboard cup and tasty cookies served in a paper bag by a friendly staff. A perfect place to stop after meandering along the coast. On the walls in the halls outside the shop there are many fascinating old photographs of the lumber and fishing industries. read more

i work here for a reason! I love the coffee and everything we sell, i came here for years before i actually worked there. so much variety and you can customize what you have in a way, great to support something local and WAAAYY better then starbucks read more

Awesome little place, friendly and welcoming staff, great coffee, and amazing cookies! After looking at all the cafes in Fort Bragg this place looked the best. The biscotti cookies are some of the best I've ever had. Definitely a place to check out! read more

This place was really cute, the baristas were super friendly and so we're the few customers that were there. I got a carrot cake muffin and a coffee w/ a shot of espresso. The muffin was good! For the coffee....I was asked if I like a dark or light roast, and said dark. Now the reason I ordered it w/ the espresso is because I hate weak coffee, but it was still somehow SO WEAK. Unfortunately I didn't try it until I was driving away, but after I did I just dumped it out.... perhaps the flavored drinks are better or it was just an off day? But the coffee was some of the worst I've had :/ read more

Zappas Coffee is serves up what you need to get the day going! Their friendly staff and great menu options make this place my go to. I have not had something from here that I did not like. read more

Bad customer service for a little coffee corner in a little town of nowhere!She had no greeting no smile... I bought 2 16oz carmel latte and asked for refilling hot water in my thermal cup,she said she would need to charge.$.75 for "hot water".Coffee then was not impressive at all. read more

Service was great. Super friendly and quick. They had a wide selection of good breakfast foods and drinks.
