    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!

    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.

    Their sugar free chai is heaven in a cup. The environment is quiet and the decor is inspirational, this is a gem in downtown Lodi!

    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

    Rolled up Monday morning open-minded, hungry, and most importantly in need of caffeine…read more Left my order a bit ambiguous by asking for "their best bacon egg and cheese" & "strongest coffee they can make" Something I'd imagine a lot of people are also looking for on a Monday morning. My only exception being no milk products the coffee was still sweet but not overpowering and is also the fuel behind this review being so long. Evidence in itself. Let me tell you whoever was back there cooking up those bagels on 3/30/26 around 10am absolutely SMASHED IT. Made me a perfectly cooked bacon egg and cheese and surprised me with a delightful PESTO bagel. Never even heard of that s**t!!!!! So fire, nice folks. Couldn't recommend more. Will be back. Probably a lot. Fr

    I love Java Stop. This morning we stopped by to grab a gift for a teacher who really loves them,…read moreand it reminded me why we come here so often. They have a huge variety on the menu, so everyone can find something they like. We love their iced mochas. They taste like the old school mochas I grew up with, rich and actually tasting like coffee and chocolate, not just sugar. I also really love the espresso they use. It's smooth and strong and makes all their drinks taste better. The staff is always friendly, and it's just an easy, reliable stop when you need a good drink or a quick gift for someone. Definitely one of our local favorites. Always a good vibe here.
