The muffin was ok, a little dry but sorta balanced with the cream cheese. But the Taro latte was the star of our choices today in my opinion. Instantly taste the taro and creaminess. It's a medium sweet and I think it suits the drink.

Plenty of espresso drinks, freshly brewed coffee with cheap refills, and a pastry case that always has something worth grabbing. The breakfast menu holds up too. Avocado smash on sourdough and the farm fresh egg sandwich are both solid picks if you want more than a pastry. The space is the real draw. Indoor seating if you want quiet, plus a big covered patio out back with string lights, wine barrel tables, and heaters for the colder months. It's a pleasant place to sit and talk without feeling rushed. A few tips if you're heading over: get there early for the best seats, and street parking out front is free until 10am. After that you're hunting. Kitchen closes at 2pm, so plan accordingly. I've only ever come for the morning routine, but they've got a full bar with craft cocktails, draft beer from local breweries like Fieldwork and Altamont, and wine by the glass. The evening side is on my list. If you live in the area and don't have a regular coffee spot yet, make this it.

The two young ladies who helped my daughter and me were pleasant, friendly, and helpful apologies that I didn't catch your names! We also ordered a vanilla latte with sugar-free Torani vanilla (the absolute best!) and a matcha. The inside of the café is magnificent, but since it was such a beautiful day, we chose to sit outside, which was just amazing. The seating was very comfortable, and our food was brought out promptly. Thank you for the wonderful service and hospitality. We look forward to visiting again soon!

The amount of pastries they had was astonishing and they were all so good. The bakery smelled awesome! The coffee is still meh. I don't know it's just too weak and I don't like that. They don't have lids for the coffee cup and I really don't like that. You can sit outside and eat, but it was kind of cold. We got a scone which was fantastic but I would prefer no icing, a mini apricot kouign amann which was to die for and a regular kouign amann which had shattering sugar crust. Soooo good. I love the pastries, but I still think the coffee needs to be worked on.

The brownie was delicious, the breakfast sandwich was good, and the avocado toast could use a little seasoning. We went on a Saturday and it was quite busy, but the vibe and ambiance was nice.

I live for a good cold brew and this place will do it every time! Their Oatmeal cookie and Carmel Coconut will definitely hit the spot for those that are more on the sweet, less-strong-coffee'ish vibe. Philz never disappoints, I will always get a 1lb bag to take home since my only "bad notes" are 1) there none in the Central Valley, and 2) since the coffee is THAT good, the lines are pretty lengthy. Love this place though, the staff is always chill and friendly (and very stylish), my service is always amazing, it's my number one and only :3

Staff that work here are always friendly and helpful, and cheerful.

This was probably one of the most modern and chic coffee shops I've ever been to -- and I can't…read morebelieve I slept on it until now! It's amazing how this place has grown, and I'm glad to see what they've done over the years. Their roastery is based in Oakland, but they have started to branch out to Contra Costa and other areas of Alameda County, which I have found quite surprising. I decided that trying their newest store out in Walnut Creek would do it justice -- and indeed, it tastes just like the one I tried in Oakland -- vibes, coffee drink, and pastry, everything with it's local taste. I got an easy vanilla latte -- and a butter croissant. Both tasted just as yummy as they say in other foodies' reviews. The only downside is the guest patio next to their stop -- I wasn't even sure if I was even allowed to sit there. I wish they could have made it clearer for other patrons so that they wouldn't get confused like I did.

Not overly sweet like a lot of caramel drinks can be -- just perfectly balanced and really smooth. You can tell they actually care about their coffee. Of course I also had to try their empanadas since everyone talks about them. I got the beef and the chicken and they were SO good. The dough was soft and fresh, and the filling was super flavorful and meaty. Nothing dry or skimpy about them. Honestly this place feels like a new hidden gem in Lafayette. I've tried pretty much every café around here and this one is easily my favorite. Also love that this place is Latino-owned, which makes supporting them feel even better. Great coffee, amazing empanadas, and just an overall really good experience. I'm already excited to come back and try their matcha next time!

I always get the chorizo (they somehow make it NOT greasy and drippy), and you can get chicken-apple sausage instead if you're not a chorizo person. One of their specialties is their assortment of empanadas. If you're on the go, you can order it as is and heat it up in the toaster oven if there's one at your destination, OR have them toast it for you which takes 8-10 min. The coffees and agua frescas are also top notch. Service is 10/10- they make excellent suggestions based on what you like and what they're proud of that day, and the ambiance is cute and comfy!

Back from a review hiatus just to write this…read more. I visited on a Tuesday morning last week to start my solo day on a high, and being greeted by the barista was my first interaction of the day (who was super sweet!). Right off the bat, she was attentive even while preparing another customer's drink and gave me a few minutes to decide before ordering. I opted for their banana bread matcha as I don't really see that on the menu at other cafés. I also make my own matcha at home, so I like to order things I normally don't put in the effort to make for myself. I initially had low expectations because Lafayette + Walnut Creek lack decent matcha-based drinks (imo), so while I had my doubts, I'm happy to say that this drink actually proved me wrong! I took the first sip in my car and proceeded to chug down half of it before turning my car on. I don't think my photo shows how vibrant the color of the drink is either. As a barista myself, I really enjoyed the drink itself and how it really tasted like banana bread in a cup, without masking the matcha flavor; It was a balanced drink that wasn't overwhelming or heavy at all. I also appreciated having a pleasant interaction to kick off my weekday, though I can see how Lafayette Scoop could get super busy on weekends and cause longer wait times. Already planned my second trip with a friend to try out more of their Summer menu!
