On our way back to Sacramento from South Lake Tahoe, we stopped to get gas, and my husband said, "Go get a coffee, babe." I'm so glad he did! I walked into this adorable little coffee shop Camino Coffee Mill and was immediately greeted with a huge smile by the gentleman behind the bar. He was incredibly friendly, struck up a conversation, and made me feel genuinely welcome from the moment I walked in. I didn't catch his name, but he provided amazing customer service. I ordered an iced mocha, and it was made quickly and tasted absolutely delicious--exactly what I needed for the drive home! It's always refreshing to find a place with both great coffee and even better customer service. If you're passing through the area or live nearby, I definitely recommend stopping in. I'll be back the next time I'm in the area! read more

Walked in and honestly got a little overwhelmed. They have like every coffee roast you can think of and a wall full of flavor syrups -- vanilla, caramel, hazelnut, mocha, you name it. Took me a solid 5 minutes just to decide. The barista was super chill though. We had a group of 5 and she made all our drinks with a smile, didn't seem annoyed at all. Drinks came out fast and everyone liked theirs. Only thing I'm mad about -- I didn't get a muffin. They looked incredible in the display case. Huge tops, fresh, golden. I literally stared at them while waiting for my coffee and talked myself out of it for some reason. Regretting it hard now. Next time I'm grabbing two. Would go back just for the service honestly.

I stop by this coffee shop from time to time and, overall, I have received friendly service. However, the experience can be inconsistent. Some days the staff is welcoming, attentive, and genuinely pleasant, while on other days the level of service seems to depend entirely on the mood of the barista. The quality of a coffee can bring customers in, but consistency in kindness and professionalism is what keeps them coming back. A smile, respect, and a positive attitude are just as important as the drink being served. It seems that since tipping became something requested before the service is even provided, a bit of the humility and gratitude that once defined great customer service has been lost. Not everywhere, of course, but too often the smile, attentiveness, and genuine care that used to earn a tip have been replaced by the expectation of receiving one. The best tips are still earned the old-fashioned way: through kindness, respect, and exceptional service. read more

Camino Coffee Mill is the perfect Highway 50 pit stop. Super convenient to hop off, grab a genuinely great cup of coffee, and get back on the road without missing a beat. The drinks are consistently delicious, and the whole place has that relaxed, local charm that makes you want to linger a bit longer. A welcome break from the usual chain spots. If you're passing through Camino, this is an easy yes. read more

Excellent customer service. Nice clean space. I had the marshmallow latte with almond milk 1/2 sweet, and I would def order it again. The coffee cake is a must try! I wanted to try all the bakery items they offer, they all looked so good. I do wish the hot drinks were offered at a hotter temperature, it wasn't hot enough for me but I'd still go back to this place. read more

This is hidden gem in the foothills. This business has a wonderful selection of drinks and food items. Breakfast items are prepared with care and are a great value. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating with a view of the foothills. The service was great, drinks and food are worth the wait when they get super busy, so don't get impatient, enjoy the background music playing. read more

Yummy and robust coffee today. Nice hidden gem away from the big coffee chains if that is your cup of tea... um coffee. Maybe tea.

What a delightful surprise! This place is very unassuming from the outside so when I first drove past I didn't know what to expect. After a long day hanging out in Apple Hill I wanted some coffee for my trip back home to Vallejo and I didn't want coffee from a franchised spot (I prefer to support local cafes whenever possible, I really enjoy spots with more of a personal community vibe) so I was lucky to come across Camino Coffee Mill. The Camino Coffee Mill is modern in style but it's not pretentious and feels like you're getting coffee while on vacation (you'll get what I'm mean once you go and see for yourself.) The barista was very friendly and patient (it always takes me a bit longer when visiting a place the first time.) While waiting for my order I saw how they made their mocha and I'd wished one (it's usually one of my go toes but I went with something different) she must have noticed the look on my face because she offered to convert my latte into a mocha just so I could have the drink I really wanted (such a kind gesture!) She also shared with me some backstory on history of the cafe and how the cafe is owned by a local couple (who bought it right before getting married) and who also owns the pizza spot right next door (which I'll be trying on my next visit!) I'm so glad I took a chance on this spot and can't wait to try another drink from their menu (maybe a chai!) If you're in the Apple Hill area and want some great coffee to start and or end your day this is the place so bring a good book and or friend to catch up with! J read more

Camino Coffee Mill - The coffee shop! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Placerville, California

Good coffee find alert! This is the place. I always make an effort to avoid Starbucks at all costs because there are so much better coffee joints out there. On a long drive back from Tahoe to the city, I was utterly relieved to have chanced upon this cozy coffee shop for an iced latte. The coffee was superb and was of a medium roast that tickled my taste buds and had the perfect coffee to ice ratio (I appreciated this greatly on this exceptionally hot day- not too much ice, but just enough to keep it chilled and not overly watered down by the time I finished). Will surely be back to soak in the ambiance of this spot and to try thier pastries and highly recommend to anyone passing through for a nice pick me up! read more

You can tell they truly care about their craft because every drink tastes amazing -- smooth, rich, and made with love. Whether I'm catching up with friends, getting some work done, or just enjoying a quiet moment, Camino Coffee Mill always hits the spot.

This place is fabulous. The owners are delightful. So sweet and engaging. Their employees are incredible too!! So sweet and always friendly to us and our kids. The coffee is incredible. I didn't think anyone could turn me away from Starbucks, but the Coffee Mill did it. The food is great too. The bakery items never disappoint and the breakfast sandwiches and burritos are great also. Don't miss this spot!!! read more

Excellent cold brew(black). Just across the state line coffee beans in Nevada. The treats made by a local mom and pop were awesome(strawberry lemon poppy seed and a glazed donut/old fashion. A gem of Camino and the surrounding area. The owners also own the pizza spot next door Sierra tap house and pizza(excellent pizza and beer tap offerings). read more

Best coffee shop ever in Camino and very friendly people and super nice people and it's nice that they are open on Sundays for being a small business owned and very delicious food and the best coffee and it's really cute inside the shop read more

Came here on our way down from Tahoe. Funny never noticed this shop before. Their cinnamon rolls are super yummy!! I'd come back :)

We were so excited when this shop opened because it's the closest one to us, but the pricing and espresso setup make the drinks hard to justify. A large latte only comes with two shots, which isn't typical -- most places include three in a large. When you try to add just one more, you can't, because they only pull double shots and require you to pay for a full double. After adding vanilla and that extra double shot, my drink came out to $11, and even then it still tasted more like a glass of milk than a proper latte. I really wanted to love this place, but the way the drinks are structured makes it hard to feel like you're getting good value. read more

Cute coffee place. Staff is friendly and welcoming. They are decently quick and run smooth. However, I had to update my previous review because their drinks have gone down hill. Their mocha's are terrible, I ordered an iced mocha and it was bitter, there were like 5 ice cubes in it, making it super milky and warm. Yuck. Also tried their pumpkin iced late and that was terrible. Used to be one of my favorite coffee shops but after the last two orders I don't think I will be back. read more

Wow wow wow! Just incredible. Not sure I have been to a more pleasant coffee shop in my life.

Great coffee and customer service! We loved it! The atmosphere was great! We will definitely be back.

First off, the coffee is great. They get their beans from a local roaster in Tahoe. They have food like pastries, breakfast burritos, empanadas, bagels, etc that delicious! On top of that, it's a local business who supports other local businesses and everyone who works here is super nice. On top of THAT, it has a clean but cozy vibe with plenty of seating, a fireplace, and a couch. Go support a great local business. Pro tip: there's parking in the back too! read more

Disappointed by both the awful coffee and the barista's poor attitude. A simple smile, a proper greeting, and genuine communication with customers would go a long way. read more

Third time here and I'm just done - ordered a few drinks, one of them was wrong when it came out and when I told them, the person making the drinks said oh well, that's what's on the order... ok, went to the counter to tell the person who took my order that it was wrong. Apparently I get to buy a whole new drink! I would have just skipped it if it was my drink but of course it was the one I was bringing for someone else. Guess I'll start going down the hill for coffee again. read more

Great Service! Super friendly! There is wonderful tree-trunk tables and the lighting is perfect for studying. I don't really like the to-go cups, because I prefer "for here" cups.
