I love chaii and is often a go to for me since its so close to my work!! Yesterday I took my boyfriend there, and we had a great time playing their provided board games and snacking on the most amazing peanut butter cookie with peanut m&ms!! I ordered the Spanish latte, per usual and if was sooooo good! My boyfriend got the boba tea and he enjoyed it too! The service was great and this is overall a great spot to come hangout. Parking is ROUGH!! But its well worth it! read more

Delicious! This place was cute and the drink delicious wasn't able to take a picture I also order a bagel with cream cheese and it was huge. The person was by himself and he was nice I went in the morning so it wasn't that busy. This place is a little small but enough to be in it and have coffee. I do recommend this place. read more

Kind service, very welcoming and was greeted as I entered and exited the cafe. Baristas were kind and patient and shared their feedbacks and favorite drinks of theirs and recommendations. My drinks came out together quickly and they were made perfectly. They had plenty of seatings inside with games and some seating on the outside. The natural sunlight as lovely and atmosphere felt warm and welcoming. read more

Chaii - karak chai and Macho Mango Magic - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Sacramento, California

So cutesies! Very spacious, homey, and quiet. We were immediately greeted, the barista gave us good recommendations. And answered all of our questions. I had the Biscoff Latte, I had high hopes. But it was bland, tasted like chocolate milk. Couldn't taste the coffee or the Biscoff flavor. Also it was dead when we visited. But the drinks took 10-15 minutes to be made. However, the samosa was soo delicious! They are made in house. He warmed it up for me and the sauce made the perfect pairing! So flavorful, filled with spices, and filling. I would have bought more but they only had one left. The store seemed to be split, I noticed that those studying or doing work were on the left side. Where there's tables that are pretty spaced out, outlets, and better lighting. The right side is more tight, with comfy chairs and a few games such as connect four and Jenga blocks. It's also where the neon light sign was, the social corner. The area is kind of sketch- But it's worth a visit! I highly recommend trying the Samosas if there's any when you visit. My friend had the Mango Lassi and said it was good. But I'd steer away from their coffee. Personally, I'd only come back if I was craving a samosa. read more

In the area waiting to attend an event and needed a pick me up. The place is on the corner with a shared parking lot, which is nice not to have to parallel park. The floral / shrubbery interior is fun and it had a good amount of people inside placing orders while others were lounging. Staff was nice, and now I really wish I would of told them it was my first time and asked for a recommendation. I wound up getting one of their iced teas, not sure if it was mango or peach, but I didn't actually care for my iced tea. The flavors were just not mixing well, but I would come back and try the place again to find my go to drink. read more

Cute little tea shop! They have a unique menu with chai. Do note that if you're ordering a fruit chai, that it is a fruit tea (without dairy). It is not the creamy chai we were envisioning mixed with fruit. On the other hand, the hot chai drinks are SCORCHING hot when they come out, so be very careful. I probably had to wait like 20 minutes before it was cool enough for me to try drinking it. The service was friendly. Parking was very limited in the front, and somewhat challenging to back out into, as you're backing into the street. read more

Drinks: 4/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 5/5 Seating: 4/5 Parking: 3/5 Located in a small shopping plaza, the parking directly next to the store is all only 20 minute parking. Since it's right on 65th street which is always busy, it may be better to turn on Broadway street and try to find 2 hour street parking. There are lots of indoor and outdoor seating: tall seats at a counter; many tables with hard, metal chairs; 3 conversational areas of comfortable cushioned chairs around small tables; 3 wooden picnic tables outdoors. Not tested/not pictured is a Gender Neutral Restroom. The music is not too loud; overall, it seems a great place to study, hangout with friends, or relax with a hot drink. When ordering my drink, the staff was very nice and conversational, answered all my questions and helped me pick my order. I ordered Karak Chai with Soy Milk (hot). It was delicious! Not too sweet and definitely woke me up. They do offer a couple pastries if you're looking for a snack. Overall, it's a great casual spot and I'm so glad there's more businesses opening up near Sac State where I think students would enjoy. Will definitely return to enjoy a nice, hot drink in the cold weather. read more

I've driven by Chaii so many times and am glad that I finally stopped in today! I came for boba but their food menu made a strong impression. My partner and I were interested in ordering samosas to-go, but the counter service regretfully informed us that they're only sold Friday-Sunday. It was a bummer, but we'd be interested in coming back, given that you don't always find Indian food at a coffee and tea shop specializing in boba drinks and desserts! Inside was cute and comfortable, and outside had seating options as well. My partner ordered the Lychee Berry Dream and I ordered the Thai Caramel Whisper. Both were well crafted, but the Thai Caramel Whisper was the favorite of the two! This combination was not only unexpected, but also delicious. I'd highly recommend and am excited to continue exploring more of their menu! read more

The Salted caramel white mocha is delicious!! I got it iced and with oat milk. It's exactly what I was wanting and hit the spot. So smooth and creamy and the salted caramel doesn't over power the white chocolate. It's a seasonal item, but I would be so happy if it stayed on the menu. read more

Chaii - Iced salted caramel white mocha with oatmilk - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Sacramento, California

Chaii is a really nice spot with excellent service and great chai and coffee We came to check out Chaii after spending time at the giant pumpkin fest in Elk Grove, it was a hot day for October and I needed an iced drink The ambiance was clean and modern there was even a group of friends that I helped take photos for because they really liked the decor I got a iced mocha and a cookie to share with my fiance and a chai for her, she said it's one of the best chais she ever had, my iced mocha was great as well, milky but still had a good coffee and chocolate flavor, sweet but not overly so They offered to heat our cookie which was super nice of them, the cookie itself was loaded with macadamia nuts which was awesome and even though the cookie maybe needed a bit more time in the oven it was still a damn good cookie - my only nitpick about it was maybe they used a bit too much fat in the cookie otherwise texture, flavor, and sweetness was on point read more

The sign has been up for this place for over a year and it's finally open! It's actually a lot more spacious inside than I expected. This is a difficult little parking lot to get in/out of, so I would recommend just parking in the neighborhood nearby and taking a short walk over. I was greeted by the owner upon entering. It was nice to see there were already a few people in there waiting for drinks despite just opening up for the day. There is a great variety of drinks on the menu! I wanted to go with something tried and true but the Thai Berry Dream caught my eye. He told me it was a Thai tea with strawberry, so I decided to give it a shot since I love both flavors but haven't tried them together! There were two baristas and even though they're in soft opening, the drink came out pretty quickly! I went to shake it to mix but it wasn't sealed all the way. Luckily it only spilled on the table. I didn't mind but I decided to go tell them so it wouldn't happen to other customers. They resealed it and it was still open so they tried again. I appreciate them fixing it for me. Hope to come back to try more of their drinks and some of the snacks like Nutella paratha! read more

The best karak chai I've ever had. Wide assortment of Indian and South Indian drinks, boba tea, and your typical western variety. This spot is legit. Very authentic, no corporate at all. Staff is chill, atmosphere is bright and comfortable. Parking sucks but there's a lot across the street in front of Tacos 65. I hope this place makes it, this area needs more places like this and Tacos 65. Support local businesses! read more

The barista was nice and quick with our order and They've got sweet and savory treats also! I tried their new Samosa and it was soooo good! Perfect seasoning and sauce.

This is definitely the year of the coffee shops. I was pleasantly surprised to see that this place had quite a unique menu. It makes me wanna keep coming back to try more things.

My boyfriend and I came here on a random Saturday. I loved my mango matcha it was very delicious and well made. The barista was kind enough to make the karak chai iced for my boyfriend he liked it. The inside is clean, while we waited for our drinks we played some games they have inside such as connect four. The only complaint would be the parking it's not very open and it's very limited. If this place was anywhere else in Sacramento besides the spot it's currently in I feel like it would be good for their business, they have a wonderful selection of drinks and it's yummy. read more

We decided to explore more in our neighborhood and I had been eyeing Chaii for a while. When we went in their staff was polite and pleasant and they kept the place very clean. Chaii had absolutely delicious samosas and the drinks we got were decent. We ordered a Thai tea and a brown sugar milk tea, but flavor wise they were not as strong as some other places I have been. Overall, if a friend recommended going there for a coffee date, I wouldn't say no. read more

We came here shortly after they opened and tried a few drinks on the menu, I got a cardamom chai that was SO good. We didn't get any food but will likely come back to try some. Everyone was very friendly, and it's a cute coffee shop vibe. read more

I really like the spot because they got a variety of drinks such as matcha coffee drinks and middle eastern Indian chai drinks. . -Vibes - The inside is casual and has a nice signage of the spot and they have lots of seats to sit they even have a drink bar as well so you can interact with the Baristas and enjoy your drink at the same time. . -Snacks - They even have snacks such as grilled cheese sandwich some macaroons and different pastries. I tried the grilled cheese sandwich it was warm and it had a perfect cheese pull. I also tried the Malaysian flatbread egg roll with egg in it it was served hot and fresh. The macaroon was very good and it was filled with some . -drinks - Pistachio kulfi - so good and I love the nutty taste and not too sweet. Lychee butterfly pea tea refresher - sparkling and refreshing. Great for the summer. Also a very great dessert drink. . Overall I found some favorite drinks and can't wait to come back and try more. If I'm in the area then I will come support. Refresher and pistachio are the highlight drinks for me. Hope this review helps and thanks for reading. Have a yelptastic day and follow me for more. read more

I am very dissatisfied by the service. The drink itself is good but based on my experience I will not go back. The girl working was on her phone after taking my order. She finished the customers drink order before me in a decent time but my iced chai took 10minutes! She apologized saying it takes a while for the milk to boil but thats not what took so long, its that I saw her several times on her phone playing a game. Its unprofessional for an employee to be on their phone when they should prioritize making the customers order instead of having them wait around while you play on your phone. read more

3.5 stars to start, rounded to 4. I'll have to go back and review some more. Chaii is in the old Starbucks location at 65th and Broadway. There is a parking lot, but it's quite small, and also quite difficult to get in and out of. They have quite an extensive menu with coffee, tea, Red Bull, and Desi options. They also have a few things to nibble on. It seems like they're trying to do a lot, and I am always suspicious about that because it usually comes out mediocre. I ordered the mango lassi. My partner ordered the biscotti iced latte and a bagel. Everything came out in to go containers. My mango lassi was decent. It's not as creamy as other one's I've had in the past. It also had ice in it, which I've never experienced. Next time I'll ask for it with no ice and with boba instead. Oh yeah, in addition to all the above, they also have boba! Biscoff was delicious. My partner didn't complain about this drink, so I'll assume it was also delicious. (I don't drink coffee.) The bagel sando did look a little sad. But again, partner didn't complain, so maybe it was good? They're still ironing out kinks, but I hope they eventually have cups and plates and things to eat there. Sometimes you just want to relax in a coffee shop for a second. Also, we hate single use plastics. Eating in with all the to go packaging just felt cheap. And the drinks were not cheap (~$8ish per person). All in all, I hope they succeed! Love to see a small business within walking distance and I'm excited to try more of their options. read more

Not going to lie I really like this place! Not many places can you go and have fresh chai. Yes my first time here but they do make your chai fresh. I got the masala chai and they ask how sweet you like it! I also got the lotus biscotti cookie, it was great not to sweet just perfect with the chai!!! Yea parking is tough it's right across from Tacos 65. But like I said I really do not know anywhere around here that makes Fresh chai to order. Honestly it seemed all of the coffee and redbull drinks are popular too. read more

if you would like to experience authentic flavor and finally enjoy a REAL chai, search no more, this is your oasis. Directions: run to this place if you need to. Say Hi to the amazing staff. Look up at the Desi Family menu and order the first thing you see... Kadak chai! For those suffering with impaired tastebuds, they have a cute little tea menu as well. Pros: Chai uses authentic ingredients, no powdery BS Chai was made fresh The kadak chai reminded me of my grandmothers chai (good memories) Staff were friendly Cons: This place didn't open sooner! Note* the chai took some time but its due to it being made fresh and with the traditional ingredients and process, be patient because it's worth it! read more

Stopped by on my lunch break to try their Thai Berry (Thai tea with strawberry milk? Puree?) and also picked up a grilled cheese sandwich. Both came out to a total of $16 after taxes. The drink was delicious as I expected, a perfect sweetness between the Thai tea and strawberry mix. The grilled cheese came on sourdough bread with mozzarella cheese, I think. It was a good, simple grilled cheese. Service was quick which was nice considering I was on my lunch break. read more

Got their samosas, absolutely amazing. So so good. Ate one went back and bought more. Got their love drink, fruity Thai, and caramel Thai, all were 10/10. So amazing good not too sweet not under sweet. Amazing. Restaurant was clean. Service was kind and good, however I will say a little slow. But there was only one person working. Food and boba is so great I'm willing to make the 20 minute drive over there. Try this place! So happy I tried them saw their good reviews on yelp. And they have a very interesting menu with options for someone who just wants something simple. If this place was in a better location it would be busy 24/7. Again, 100% worth the drive. Will be coming back to try more. read more

Don't order the bagel with egg & pesto. The pesto was so salty and the egg was overcooked. I paired it with a Biscoff Latte. It wasn't too sweet but the flavor was mildy there. I want to come back and give this place another chance. I hope the other items in their menu are better. read more

Was driving by this area so wanted to try out Chaii- parking is very limited and the spaces are tight so I ended up parking in the residential area. Got the ice pink chai which was really smooth and tasty- not too sweet and had nice rose flavor. The pearly mango kulfi was made fresh and super pretty. Definitely much sweeter due to the ice cream and had basil seeds as well as jelly like strands. Prices are pretty comparable to other places 7-8.5 per drink. Nice to have try something other than boba or coffee shop. read more

Just found this spot and love it. The drinks are all tasty and they have a great variety.

Really disappointed in the Kashmiri chai. I've tried it twice now, hot and iced, and both times it was overly milky with hardly any other flavor.
