    I coulda swore I left a review for this spot already...but here goes again... Love this cafecito...I went during their soft opening in January 2025 and many more times with my most recent visit being last night (December 2025) and each time the service, the vibe, the product (no matter what I get) - just blows me away. Alan, the owner, is there once in a while too just helping and welcoming people and I love that he stays humble through it all... I have had their abuelita hot chocolate, banana matcha, piña colada, horchata, they even gave my pup a pup cup. Oh and their conchas, pastries, and other food is pretty bomb too! Grilled cheese was super yummy and they even have tamales during this holiday season too and they put the works on it! *Note: They do stop serving food 1 hour before closing though - so keep that in mind if you are looking for a late night snack. I think it is also cool that you can pay $1.50 to make any drink (that has foam) a "selfie-ccino" and send any photo to be "printed" on top of your drink. It is a fun little touch :) Thank you all for always being so kind and welcoming whenever I stop by...ya'll are doing a great job and make me proud to be Latina and I wish you continued success!!!

    I went to Cafe Con Azúcar around noon to study, and honestly it was a really nice experience. The inside is super beautiful and cozy--perfect vibes for studying or getting work done. It was quiet the whole time, and even when more people came in later, it never got loud or distracting. I ordered a white mocha, and it was a little bitter at first since I didn't ask for extra creamers or sweetener (my fault ). I ended up adding a sugar packet and it was good after that. Not a deal breaker at all. The baristas were super nice and patient. I went back up to ask for the Wi-Fi password, and after I couldn't get it to work (lol), they were kind enough to put it in for me. Everyone behind the counter was really welcoming and chill. Overall, great place to study, relax, and enjoy a calm atmosphere. I'd definitely come back.

    Walked in on a rainy Saturday morning and immediately loved the vibe. The place is beautifully decorated and very picture-friendly, with great music playing. There was a line to order, which is always a good sign. I ordered a latte with a cuernito. The cuernitos are very small (tiny but mighty!), but they had great flavor and weren't overly sweet. My husband had a mocha made with Mexican Abuelita chocolate -- you could clearly taste the cinnamon, and it was full of flavor. We also ordered a ham and cheese sandwich, which was excellent. Overall, a lovely spot and definitely worth the visit.

    I love this cafe. You really have to be there to get it. The interior is dope and it's always busy whenever I come by for a coffee date. This is the spot with the giant conchas and the big pot of coffee. Perfect place for all the aunties to go full chismosa on a nice weekend morning. I love their matcha horchata. So good. I come here specifically when I want a warm matcha because so many new matcha spots only serve iced. This is my go to when I want something hot with that little dash of horchata. You really taste both the matcha and the horchata. They also have a fun latte art moment when I ordered the mazapan latte. Super cute reindeer and festive, esp for the holidays!

    Great little breakfast spot! Their coffee was just amazing! Even thought it was made of sweet flavors it was not overpowering. The iced horchata latte was my favorite. We also got a caprese with bacon added. The toast was nice and chubby and had a good amount of avocado, cheese & bacon. Staff was very friendly and even thought they were super busy they got the line going and got our things out relatively quick. Definetly a spot to try if you like mexican inspired coffee.

    What a fun place and a great place to take Selfies. They have swing with a decorated wall behind it set up just for selfies. They have a sign asking customers to not swing on the swing. They also have a ivy wall in the back beside the fake tree that is a fun addition to the space. The ceiling is also decorated with flowers. They have a pretty good selections of drinks and snacks. The torta is not very Mexican or what I'm used to. They don't come with your typical selection of Mexican meats and beans and lettuce and tomatoes. I always think of a Mexican burrito on sandwich roll. All of their food has been Americanized, which is fine, just know what to expect. One thing they do right is their Conchas. They are very moist and tasty. I got the pink one and loved it. They also sell a giant one that is the size of a medium size pizza. We didn't see anyone with one of those. They would be a novelty for a large group or a good party food. I also got the pineapple Augas Fresca which was very tasty. The vibe is nice. It's more of a grab and go type of group. Very of the tables were occupied. They have a bathroom, and the code prints out on the recipes when you make a purchase. If you want to wash your hands you are welcome to and that party, you don't need a code. Parking is either on the street which is few and far between. Best options would be the parking garage, but that isn't such a good option if you just want to stop in here and grab a snack or drink. I think the only reason you'd come here if you are already in DOCO and wanted a tasty snack. We on the other hand came here just to check this place out, but we walked over so that's another way you can do it. If you are in old sac and want to try something new this is a great opportunity and option.

    Abuelita Hot chocolate
    Jennifer D.

    The space is spacious with lots of seating. They always have decor on point for holiday. Not pictured but ordered their BLT sandwich. It was one of the best BLT I've ever had! Their hot abuelita chocolate was also solid. A nice stop on a cold day.

    First Visit a very quick stop due to parking on the street. Walked in loved the vibe and deco , it was busy with a morning event so I picked up a coffee and some conchas ohhh loved the pumpkin ones. Staff quick service no lines. will certainly return again to try other items on the menu. great sitting area and they do have Merch and Coffee for sale. be back soon

    Finished working out at 24 Hour Fitness and I noticed what used to be a Starbucks Reserve. Ambiance Bright and festive colors, so Mexican I love it. Customer Service Good. Iced Mocha Mexicano Very tasty not sure what is in it but has two shots expresso, some sort of chocolate, cinnamon and whipped cream. They have miniature pan dulces which I was informed they bake. They have a massive concha for $30 for a family affair. My interaction was brief but very positive.

    Iced abuelita chai
    Charlene G.

    Located in the DoCo area. Was excited to finally visit, first time I tried on a weekend, the line was out the door! Decor, cleanliness, wall art, and furniture are impressive. Yes, i'll sit and stay awhile. Bakery case was inviting and menu was enticing. This place sells Cafe de Olla- and there aren't many places in Sacramento that do! The cashier was kind enough to give me a cold sample - delicious! I ordered the iced abuelita chai- it was perfect! Not too sweet, the abuelita cold foam was thick and delicious, and the chai was not too overpowering. I also sampled a horchata latte, also delicious. The pastry was light, not as dry as it looked, which was a good thing. Definitely a place i'll be coming back to.

    Huge conchas :o)
    Donna T.

    The space is very festive and cute, full of elements of Mexican culture and photo ops! I loved duvalín candy as a kid so I came here specifically for that item. I was a little let down because the latte doesn't really remind me of duvalín and instead strawberry milk over espresso. Perhaps I'll try another drink next time. The pastries didn't look super appetizing personally but they seem popular among others, especially the huge concha. On the plus side, the staff was nice and made my drink quickly. This location is in a busy part of town though and may be difficult to find parking near.

    This might be my favorite coffee shop in downtown. It's not because of the coffee. It's just the overall vibe, ambience, and beauty. Con Azucar Café did not disappoint. Both drinks I had one was the Matcha Horchata and the other brown sugar Horchata latte. They were both amazing. I had their jamon torta as well. The staff was really friendly and helpful. Take a look at my pictures. The inside is a party, and sadly if you haven't visited Con Azucar Cafe, then you're not invited to the party!

    Was just wondering if they have any sugar free options available, at least sugar free syrup?

    They do but the only thing that was sugar free was their latte

    Is this a spot where you can do homework? Or do they kinda want you to finish your coffee and go?

    You can definitely hang out here but every time I've come it's been very busy! So just make sure to claim a table asap.

    Do they validate for the DOCO parking garage?

    No they don't.

    Yes it is the old Starbucks. They sell pastries and sandwiches

    What are the standard business hours ? Are they open on Presidents Day?

The Pear and Blue Cheese is outstanding. The pear is clean and sweet, and the blue cheese comes through with just enough tang and salt to balance it without overpowering anything. The texture is rich and smooth, and the combination works better than it has any right to. It's one of those flavors you end up thinking about later. The Strawberry Honey Balsamic with Black Pepper is equally strong. You get real strawberry flavor, think a PBJ on white bread in summer,a touch of honey sweetness, and the balsamic adds a nice depth without making it sour. The black pepper is subtle but noticeable--it gives the whole thing a little edge and keeps it from tasting one-dimensional. It's well balanced and genuinely interesting. Both of these are worth seeking out. If you're in Sacramento seek them out.
