Not over roasted and allows some tart berry notes to shine through. Bacon breakfast sandwich - Excellent. Get it with the biscuit of course.

The employee helping me this morning came across as completely uninterested and lacked basic customer service skills. I still left a 15% tip, but honestly, I don't think I should have. Tipping shouldn't be automatic. It should reflect the service you receive. It's also a bit overpriced. Two burritos and two black coffees came to about $50 after a 15% tip, which feels excessive. I won't tip next time unless I actually receive good customer service, assuming I decide to come back. Without the quality of the food, this rating would have been even lower because of the price and the service I experienced this morning. If I had been helped by someone with a friendlier attitude, it would have made a big difference. With better customer service, I'd say the current 3.8-star overall rating is fair.

Plenty of indoor seating with a mix of counters and tables, no outdoor setup, and a pretty minimal food menu. But you're not here for the food anyway. You're here for the coffee, and that's where it delivers. Good vibes, no nonsense, and a price point that's refreshing Parking? Lot. Easy We had: Pour Over, Papua New Guinea and Bali (5/5): Finding a genuinely good pour over under five dollars feels almost extinct at this point. Somehow, Kingdom makes it feel normal. Both beans were clean, intentional, and actually distinct, which is the whole point of a pour over. The Papua New Guinea was smooth with soft chocolate notes, balanced and easy without feeling boring. The Bali brought more brightness with a citrus edge that gave it some energy. Two different profiles, both executed well

Nestled in one of the many Folsom strip malls, this tiny shop packs a massive punch and they are serious about the bean. The coffee roasting happens in house and that's easily the best possible experience for coffee obsessed people like meself. I'm such a coffee nerd when it comes to roasting and I love seeing these massive roasters in house. The espresso shot was really clean, nice and strong, with just the right bitterness. Apple hill dirty chai is tremendously flavorful but without a ton of sugary sweetness. Staff are very friendly and they know their drinks and they move really fast. If I lived closer I'd be here 4 times a week. Love y'all. Mean it.

The service was excellent and the shop was very clean. The decaf lavender latte was good, but overall felt very muted--I didn't get a lot of espresso flavor, or lavender flavor which was strange. The divine order grilled cheese was delicious. The garlic was yummy, the cheese pulls were excellent, and the chicken was cubed nicely so it was well distributed in the sandwich. The sandwich was $15, which did feel steep for a three ingredient sandwich, but it was tasty.

I ordered a chai latte with oat milk ($8), and it was DELICIOUS. Definitely in my top 5 chai I've had. I will definitely be back. Oh, also, there was plenty of seating inside and outside. There were a good number of people occupying tables, so it was a good ambiance and setting for meeting someone, working alone, etc.

I came during a busy hour which wasn't idea but didn't affect anything in regard to the taste of what I got! Typically I like to find a spot that's quietly busy so if you're wanting to do the same I would try to come when it's less busy as I found myself slightly overstimulated by the business and seeing all the seats filled up which otherwise is a good sign! The Banana Dream Match caught my eye so I ordered it immediately along with an Avocado toast + egg ( extra cost). They give you a buzzer for the food and you have to find a corner to wait in that's out of the way and pick your food up by the kitchen. The vibe was very open and I liked the different seating options as well as the abundance of outlets. I ended up eating outside to get away from the busyness and the I was in the middle of talking when the taste of the Banana hit me. The best. Banana matcha I've ever had. Which I didn't expect because I've tried so many but what I loved most is that the banana flavor was sweet but tasted like real banana and the matcha flavor was still present. The banana flavor wasn't just at the top either it was top to bottom so every sip tasted the same making it soooo good!! The Avocado toast was good as well a little on the tangy side but I loved the egg. Great spot when it's less busy which would make parking easier as well but glad I stopped in to find my new favorite matcha spot.

Came in around 11:10AM to a packed house, but despite the busy, the staff were super nice and gave such great recommendations. Shoutout to Sara and beanie guy (didn't catch his name)! Beanie guy recommended an earl grey london fog latte (? Might've gotten that wrong), but it was still amazing nonetheless. Also got a chocolate croissant and it tastes like... a chocolate croissant Can't mess that up lol Had no choice but to sit outside since it was packed inside, but outside seating wasn't bad since it was shaded and thankfully a bit of wind today. Honestly, service makes or breaks a place, so big shoutout to the staff. Please keep up this level of service! You guys are doing great.

Honestly, I thought about writing this review for a while after multiple of my experiences here but…read moremy experience there yesterday was the last straw. When I first heard that a location near my house was opening up a while back my husband and I were so excited. Before this we were frequent-ish customers at the Folsom location. We were just happy we would not have to make the drive over the bridge and through the freeway. However, after trying to give this location a chance we've just had to accept that this store is a mess. I'm sorry to say because I LOVE temple. I do want to say I have experience in the coffee business. I used to be a barista in the Portland area. Besides this, I've been a loyal customer of temple for years and have gone to many of their other locations. You kind of get the gist of what the experience is supposed to be like when it's done properly. At this location you kinda get the sense that no one really knows what they're doing or they just don't care. We have tried to give them multiple chances but it's so often that our cappuccinos or flat whites are extremely burning hot or too cold. And/or the espresso tasting so bitter and off. Plus the staff looking too frazzled or care free depending on the occasion. Like yesterday, Friday. We go in around morning time because we didn't have the time to drive to the Folsom location. My husband and I are standing in line, obviously, what you would typically expect of temple on a weekend. I know this, I know to be patient. A girl with pinkish hair is making the drinks and she just looked so frazzled. To the point that she is talking to herself and repeating drinks to herself outloud. Kind of fidgety, I'm sorry, I don't know how else to describe it but you could just tell they were so overwhelmed and making mistakes. Then they tell the girl at the register, in an extremely loud, almost yelling voice to get some sort of ice cup. The girl at the register just rolls her eyes before getting it. By the way, the girl at the register had extremely long blond hair like down her back and she had it down. When she bent down to get something, her hair brushed the pastries on the plate from the people in front of us. We order our drinks and go, mind you they gave us the wrong milk, yes we can taste it. AND our drinks (flat whites) are extra foamy like cappuccinos and extremely hot. Plus the place looked just messy with dishes everywhere which makes us not want to spend time there. Coming here has gotten so tiring. I've also talked to my friends who are frequenters at folsom and have tried Hazel and they've also all expressed the same sentiment. This place and the majority of the staff are just a mess. I'm just going to do what my husband and I were previously doing and send him to Folsom or another coffee shop to get our drinks, bless his heart.

The coffee shop is located on a church campus, but it's easy to spot from the main road. You order with the people working inside the parked Airstream and then you have the choice of enjoying your drink at one of the tables available outside, or by walking into the lobby space adjacent to the Airstream. I love finding a space inside and have spent a few hours at a time here, working undisturbed on various things. The beautiful interior makes it hard to leave. I have a couple cons, though. One, it's hard to enjoy this place on bad weather days because you're waiting for your drink to be made while standing in the cold or wind. Two, I wish there were more food items available for purchase besides a few cookies. But don't let these things deter you - come check out Proxy and fall in love!
