Reviews
It’s simple… GREAT Coffee and a place to drink it. Indoor and outdoor seating.
I don’t usually write negative reviews, and I especially don’t revisit places years later — but this one feels worth documenting.
I originally visited this coffee shop in 2021 and had a genuinely unpleasant experience during the height of COVID. The policies themselves weren’t the main issue; it was the attitude. Interactions felt cold, condescending, and unnecessarily harsh, to the point that it overshadowed the mediocre coffee entirely. When I shared feedback at the time, the response I received was dismissive, and I was ultimately blocked rather than heard. I noticed that Yelp removed any review having to do with cobid and masking for “violation of community terms”, although that is exactly what was relevant and made me want to visit or stay away from a business back then.
Fast forward several years later: we’ve since moved away, but my husband stopped in last week, not remembering our previous experience. Unfortunately, his visit confirmed that little has changed. The same rude tone, lack of warmth, and unwelcoming environment were still very much present.
Coffee shops are often community spaces — places people go to slow down, connect, and feel welcome. Sadly, this shop has repeatedly missed that mark. There are plenty of places that serve good coffee without making customers feel like an inconvenience, and I’d recommend seeking those out instead.
I truly hope the owners eventually take feedback like this to heart, because it’s not about politics or policies — it’s about basic kindness and respect.
The best part? There’s zero coffee snobbery here. The vibe is warm, welcoming, and down-to-earth. They care about making great coffee without the pretentiousness that some other places seem to thrive on.
The shop itself is a cozy, inviting space that’s great for catching up with friends or just taking a moment to yourself. It’s clear they put thought into every detail, and it shows. If you’re looking for a spot with amazing drinks and a relaxed, friendly atmosphere, this is it. Highly recommend!
Also, watch out for that suspicious raccoon outside.
Anyways, this a great cafe to come to if you’re in Martinez it feels small but it isn’t and it’s additional space for dining and family dining make it a both a an area where you can socialize or work, and a kid friendly establishment.
