    Medium hot chocolate
    Julie M.

    Just moved into town. Looking for a local coffee shop to support. I stopped in here to grab a hot chocolate and I was so impressed. I was greeted and the ambiance had a relaxing, warm vibe. There are cozy chairs and couch with tables. There is a lot of natural light that just adds to the warmth. The 2 young adult baristas were so sweet and helpful. I hung out by the community board checking to see what is happening around and she brought me my drink with a smile. Overall it was a great experience and so welcoming. The hot chocolate was awesome, too. I look forward to being back to try some of their fall drinks that are now out.

    Cute downtown shop with indoor and outdoor seating. Staff was helpful and kind. Iced Coffee iced and dirty spicy chai 1/2 sweet were both good. Only suggestion is to make sure iced drinks aren't hot. Flavor was good!

    Cute little coffee shop in downtown Lodi ran by the community church. They have a ton of syrup offerings and a seasonal menu to keep you from having to drink the same flavor...ever. The staff is incredibly joyful and friendly which creates an inviting atmosphere. They have Disney merchandise for sale as well as their own brand of beans. They offered an avocado everything bagel that looked very appetizing but we were in our way to lunch so I had to pass but you shouldn't! The bourbon caramel drizzle had amazing flavor with just a touch of bourbon. The coffee itself was average but the ambiance more than makes up for it. Nice little jaunt from the freeway.

    I saw a lot of positive reviews for the coffee shop in Lodi and liked that they offer flights, so I was excited to check out Inspire Coffee. It was very busy, even near closing on a weekday. Service was friendly. It's a cute place. Seating inside and a couple tables outside. Plenty of parking in the area. I picked the four drinks I wanted to try for the flight. All were tasty. I will say, a lot of the drinks are on the sweet side, which may not be everyone's preference. The whipped cream, which seemed to have a consistency of being house-made, was a nice touch (to my drinks I opted to get iced). Definitely a nice coffee place to check out if you're thinking about it!

    The entrance to Inspire - I love the downtown location.

    Good coffee in a great downtown Lodi location. Service was super nice and the Cortado I ordered was fine, if not spectacular. For those wondering, a Cortado is a short cappuccino and whereas a Cap is 3:1 milk to espresso, a Cortado should be anywhere from 2:1 to 1:1 (no set standard here) so if you tend to enjoy a stronger coffee flavor, maybe give it a try. Overall, Inspire made for a great way to wake up before my morning appointments, and sitting outside on their patio on this 75 degree day was delightful. If it's here or Starbucks, there is no question that Inspire is your easy choice here. Support your local businesses! Thanks Inspire!

    I ordered the specialty flights and chose the purple rain, Aztec, neo, and spice chai. My favorite drink was Aztec as it contained a strong cinnamon sugar flavor. All of the drinks were delicious as they were very sweet. I typically do not like coffee, but these drinks were very smooth and refreshing. All the drinks were topped with whipped cream that was a fluffy consistency with a slight buttery taste that indicated a high cream content. Service was excellent! I typically don't enjoy coffee, however the uniquely flavored drinks here are amazing and this is now my favorite coffee shop. Although I very rarely come to Lodi, I would make a special trip to take my wife here on a coffee date .

    Everything went well. First time here and we were WOW!! Walker makes us to enjoy a great time with our coffees. Aztec coffee was like Atole de Chocolate for me and was great. My wife get Avocado toast and she very happy with it.

    Ambience in a coffee shop can be defined by many ways. Here's how I define it at Inspire: Smell - coffee, of course Lighting - just enough, with picturesque windows Decor - a bit moody and a bit earthy Tone - the customer service is top notch. Friendly, real, and positive. I tried the lavender blended coffee drink. I wish I remembered the name. I took it without whipped cream and was glad I did. It's the perfect blend without too much sweetness. There's a small fridge next to the coffee bar and I was immediately drawn to the homemade cinnamon bun muffin. It was flavorful and carefully crafted, and delicious! I wish I had gotten two. If you decide to enjoy your special treats and the fireplace seating area is free, take a seat. It made the ambience even more special and unique. Street parking, within walking distance to a ton of classic Lodi downtown feels.

    My sister really wanted to visit this coffee shop so this was our sister date of the month. This is a cute little coffee shop in downtown Lodi . It's small but cozy the staff is really nice and friendly. They offer some brunch items and pastries. They are more known for their coffee flights . You can pick 4 different flavors and make them flights . It was fun trying them all . They have a water station and merch for purchase. Overall my sister and I had a fun time here catching up . We would definitely be back .

    It's located near downtown Lodi. I was greeted as soon as I entered. I wasn't sure what to order so they gave me time to order. I asked about a small contraption they had behind the counter and he explained to me how the manual drip coffee works which was pretty interesting. He said they pour hot water over the grounds and it seeps through which takes a little longer but it's worth the wait. As I waited, I enjoyed the ambiance and the comfy couch. I would recommend this place to sit back and enjoy some coffee.

    I loved this place! Such a quaint atmosphere while I worked from there for a couple of hours. Great iced matcha latte and friendly staff!

    The coffee shop's motto... I-N-S-P-I-R-E A family ran coffee shop in Downtown Lodi, I had a big cup of hot chocolate and it was deeeelicious! The sweetness was just right for me. I'm not a coffee drinker so hot chocolate is always my favorite hot drink. I also tried the Lavender Lemonade as suggested by the friendly barista. Oh, man... excellent classic drink! This elegant spin on lemonade was fragrant, refreshing, and the perfect balance between tart and sweet. I loved it. Inside has great atmosphere and decor... they have a couch, such a comfortable seating area! and the ambience was calming. So clean! I have not tried the pastries but my daughter took home a Birthday Cake Bar which I will try to sneak a bite later :) We met Lance, the owner. So friendly and nice. They welcomed entrepreneurs to set up a pop up outside their shop. Tiny Soap Diary and her handcrafted soaps was there today. Thank you for supporting. Review#2580

    Do they happen to have any Vegan options?

    They had vegan pastries and dairy free milk options!

    I'd love to visit and also study here. Is the parking easy around there?

    There is a parking garage on the otherside of the street that is unlimited all day parking. If you park right in front of the store there is only 90 minute parking

    Review 1,108 Posted on 9.13.26…read more We came to Maison after arriving at Appellation Spa & resort on Saturday August 29th when coming for our anniversary. Maison is on the grounds near the main roadway that Appellation is on. They've got a bakery here, as well as a wine bar of sorts connected to it. The bread here is so fresh, soft, & good. We ended up getting 2 fresh loafs to bring back home. You can take your food and coffee and sit out back or out front. Tons of people I think stop in here to hang and get a quick bite and just sit outside and enjoy the weather and people watch. Nice place to hang.

I got mine with no cheese and a side of onions, and it was every bit as good as I remembered. One thing that was a little odd was that my friend's plate came with chips and veggies while mine only came with the sandwich and veggies. I'm not sure if there was a difference in how the orders were entered, but it definitely caught my attention. That said, those chips were absolutely delicious. We liked them so much that we packed up the leftovers and took them with us while we walked over to the visitor center afterward. That's always a good sign when you're making sure not a single chip goes to waste. We've been here quite a few times over the years, and one thing that keeps us coming back is the consistency. The food is always excellent, and even on busier days they seem to keep things moving. During this visit the restaurant was fairly crowded, but we were still served promptly and never felt forgotten. The atmosphere is one of my favorite things about Maison. It feels relaxed without being overly casual and always makes for a nice lunch stop when we're in Lodi. Helpful tip: If the chips come with your meal, don't leave them behind. They're surprisingly addictive and worth taking home if you can't finish them. Between the great food, friendly service, and reliable consistency, Maison continues to be one of our favorite places to stop whenever we're spending the day in Lodi.

Very cool vibe and ambiance inside the shop as well as outside. Service is impressive, friendly patient barista. Did not feel rushed or pressured but was offered to take my time. The barista also let me know that if I want to make my own drink TK instead of ordering off the menu that was possible. As far as food, I didn't see any. Apparently at one time they had bakery items, maybe they were sold out by the time my friend and I arrived (9:30ish on a Friday)? I'm not sure but a bakery items, especially if homemade would have made this a five star review. I always try to support small business owners and local shops and this is no exception! I highly recommend you give this place a chance and your business, the coffee is delicious! You will not be disappointed in the coffee!
