Back again in Elk Grove and can't miss an opportunity to get a drink and baked goods from 18 Grams…read moreCoffee & Tea! Arrived 15 minutes before they closed, was able to get a chocolate chai with oat milk (my favorite), blueberry muffin and cookies. So delicious! There is no chocolate chai better than the one here. Absolutely love it and worth the two hours drive!

It is hazelnut coffee, sweetened condensed milk, that's topped with sea salt cream and ibarra chocolate. It's strong and has a good sweetness level for me. This location is on the smaller side, but is cozy and a good place to meet with a friend or two or get some work done. The staff is always friendly and they're pretty quick. On my last visit the drinks came out so quick. Parking can be hard when the plaza is busy- on my recent visit I parked further down the plaza and walked over. I like stopping in whenever I'm in the area.

Take this with a grain of salt since we're definitely coffee snobs, but we didn't enjoy our drinks. The americano had a great aroma and some complexity in its flavor notes, but overall the taste just didn't land for me. I'm not sure if it was the beans or the preparation. As for the pour-over, we watched it being made and realized it was being used as a training opportunity to who I assume is a new hire. The pouring technique was off, and at that point, we lowered our expectations.

They specialize cinnamon rolls but not your traditional Cinnabon style.

They are relatively new and serve coffee and items from mellobun bakery, which is what got my attention. I don't drink coffee, do this is just for the bakery side and the dining area. Inside is aesthetically pleasing and has a lot of cool art. They have decent seating. The coffee flavored are pretty interesting as well. I got a cookie to try and it was not bad. They ran out of other bakery items since I got here after the lunch rush, so other items must be good. Customer service was friendly as well. Quick service and the workers were hard at working making everyone's drink orders.

I've been to Tea Again twice and each time has been pleasant…read more Pros" lots of parking!!! Always a HUGE plus. cute, clean and asthetic decor inside - such warm and calm vibes there's a kiosk to order your drinks. From my experience, although I ordered from a kiosk... the workers still took the time to chat with me and my husband as we walked in, while we waited, and after they were finished with our drinks. Staff is friendly here even while they are busy perfecting our drinks drinks aren't too sweet which i love! I've tried their strawberry matcha and its one of the best I've had. Not too sweet and not too bitter! I also tried their jazzy limeade! Its a unique and refreshing tea perfect for the summer. If you get this drink.. be aware it may seem bitter to people because of its unique flavoring profiles. Get it 75% sweetness and once your ice melts a bit .. the drink is super tasty, unique and refreshing!! they also serve sweet taiyako with unique filling flavors! Idk how they do it but it always comes out super crispy. I've tried these at other dessert spots and always get really soggy or soft taiyakis so I was so shocked how crispy and fresh these were. They do make it on the spot in front of you so maybe that's why?! Or their batter is just high quality. Whatever it is.. im not complaining! This has been my new go to boba spots in Elk Grove! I highly recommend if you're looking for a place to hangout/catch up with friends, get some work done, or just need a yummy treat.

visited Tea Again and tried a few of their drinks and treats--definitely a spot worth checking out…read more The environment was great--clean, cozy, and a really nice place to relax or hang out for a bit. The Taiyaki was a standout: crispy on the outside while staying warm, soft, and chewy on the inside. It had that perfect balance of texture that makes it really satisfying. The Dubai Chocolate Chewy Cookie was super indulgent. It had this rich cocoa-marshmallow exterior with a generous filling that made every bite feel decadent without being overwhelming. As for drinks, their new JPC (Jasmine Tea Pistachio Foam Coconut Water, organic) was incredibly smooth and refreshing. The jasmine tea flavor paired beautifully with the creamy pistachio foam, and the pink coconut water kept it light and hydrating. Overall, everything felt thoughtfully made and well-balanced--great flavors, not overly sweet, and really enjoyable. I'd definitely come back to try more.

I finally got a chance to try the second Tea Percent Elk Grove location. I'm a regular customer of…read morethe first location on EG Florin Rd and Midtown location. This location has snacks, desserts, and tables to dine in. Very different than other locations. We got our usual drinks. Mango Passion Fruit Tea and Mango Yogurt. Both very good - just like the other locations. I've ordered these drinks so many time that I have my preferences down! LOL. They have been very consistent with their drinks. Popcorn Chicken is a MUST order. Each pieces are cut to the perfect bite size. The chicken is tender with very savory seasoning and fried to perfection. I don't recommend the lobster balls. It's imitation lobster fish ball (the ones at hot pot) lightly battered and fried. I was too stubborn to listen to my son to skip it. Quick service. Nice space to work and hang out with friends. It was pretty busy on Sunday afternoon.

Tule Coffeehouse is the ideal relaxing shop often found in other places outside of EG; this is the…read moreend goal that many coffee chains strive to have but never achieve. There's a nice indoor area with tables and a couch, real plant vines hang from the ceiling. Through the many clean windows, EG Blvd. can be clearly viewed. There's a courtyard area on either side of the establishment that's well maintained with trimmed trees. There's space between the tables and it doesn't feel so crammed. Soft coffeeshop study music is playing in the background. The workers were friendly and the coffee came out fast even with a line but the sandwiches took over 20 minutes to come out. The coffee and food were at market prices; the sandwiches are larger than normal and easily shareable. Parking was easy thanks to the parking lot next door. The coffee was well balanced with many milk alternatives available and not overly sweet brown sugar or vanilla add-ons. The Turkey Panini was savory, the red bell peppers gave it a kick, and the bread was toasty. The Bacon (turkey) Breakfast sandwich was fluffy and It's refreshing to see this type of vibe in EG.

We got the turkey panini and bacon sandwich. They gave us the veggie panini by mistake and ended up…read moregiving us the turkey panini too. All the sandwiches were good but the bacon sandwich left a huge impact due to the fluffy eggs. The aioli they put on the sandwiches is amazing. One complaint is that they put so much arugula and some of them are uncooked so it's quite hard to chew and I ended up choking on some of them. Be prepared to wait for your sandwiches though. There's plenty of seatings inside and outside + lots of parking spaces. The cafe is super cute and they even have couches!

AMBIANCE: I love the atmosphere that the shop has,…read moreespecially their accomodations, such as their wifi, couch, tables (both indoors and outdoors), and outdoor benches. As a working student, having spots like these really feel as though they have me in mind, ensuring that I can get my job done comfortably and without any hitches. HOSPITALITY: The workers are always nice and smiling, and ensures that me, as a customer, is heard and accomodated. FOOD/BEVERAGES: This specialty coffee shop provides a lot of options to choose from, and I have absolutely loved all of them! I frequent this place, so I have been able to try out all that they offer, and I have not had any problems or complaints whatsoever. My favorite drink that they have is their Olive Grove! It's a shaken espresso drink that is lightly emulsified with honey and olive oil, which brings out their espresso's caramel and toffee notes. To me, it's an impressively good and balanced drink, especially with the sweet and rich oat milk they top it off with. If you're feeling adventurous, I believe that the Olive Grove is the way to go. Overall, I would say that this is an easy 10/10 for me! Would definitely recommend to anyone who's looking for coffee shops to frequent or to check out.

I ordered the Vietnamese coffee flight and my girlfriend ordered the Vietnamese coffee floats. In hindsight, we should have shared one flight because we didn't even finish one whole flight!! The portions were much bigger than we expected. I tried the Biscoff flavored one and it was DELICIOUS! My girlfriend drank her Matcha and Vanilla. She said they were yummy!! I also ordered a Croffle with Nutella. Our server added bananas and whipped cream. OMG. It was sooooooo tasty!!! She ordered an order of "Dirty Fries" that she had seen on Instagram. It was like a decomposed crab roll on top of perfectly cooked French fries. They made a non-meat option for people celebrating Lent. The service was amazing and the owner of the store even took the time to come chat with us. It sounds like they are opening up an outside seating area soon as well as offering a brunch menu. The gals behind the counter were awesome. They were busily working the whole time. The cafe was a little busy when we got there (10:22) and by the time we left (11:45), it was HOPPIN'! Everyone seemed to be enjoying their time there. We will definitely be back with some more friends!! P

My avocado toast while not super pricey was pretty underwhelming. Granted, it was to-go, but the bread was average, and maybe not as quite toasted as it should have been.

The coffee was solid and they sell an array of breakfast and lunch eats. Not a ton of morning pastries to choose from. Overall, solid, but as a visitor from the Bay, I wasn't as impressed.

I look forward to going back to actually try just a black coffee because they roast their own beans. I ordered a hot mocha, it really was delicious!

It's a food truck, but they do have places to sit outside. The people were very friendly and the service was quick. They also have a rewards program that you can sign up for with your phone number. I'll definitely be back to try the roasted coffee!
