Highly recommend! Fabulous outdoor seating in a quaint downtown Davis location. Wonderful selection of teas to have hot or iced. (or to buy leaves for home brewing!) Coffee is tasty too! Yummy selection of pastries. Go early for their delicious croissant breakfast sandwiches...they sell out. And grab a loyalty stamp card so you can earn your free drink! Love this local, small business! read more

I love getting coffee here but I wish there was a simple way to get a quick drip coffee without waiting in a 10-15min line.

A Davis icon coffee shop. They really love their brew!!! And they serve amazing tea and pastries also. Certain times of the UCD academic year and the time of day really impact avails of seats inside but there is patio seats and some new unique seating areas on the sidewalks on the corner of E and 2nd. read more

Good local coffee shop in the heart of downtown Davis. During the academic year it can get very crowded and busy.

Have always seen this place packed to the brim with students studying and have always wanted to try! It was good- the coffee was enjoyable and the pastry was sweet. The chocolate muffin could have been more rich in flavor but I still enjoyed it. I can see how this place is a nice place to study solo. The workers were nice too! read more

Pete's closed downtown, so I've been in search of a regular coffee joint, Mishka's Coffee have a dessert case, where you can be tempted by pastries, where you can pickup a pastry to go along with your beverage. The service is pretty brisk. It is usually full of people, lots of students being studious. There are all sorts of cool posters on the wall. read more

Classic coffee shop in the heart of downtown Davis. You can't go wrong with a drink and a baked good from this place! If you see a long time, don't fret - the staff work quickly and efficiently to get people served. During good weather there's a lot of outdoor seating, and if not, then you can always squeeze into a chair inside! read more

Mint latte was pretty good ($7 after tax and tip). Cafe stays super busy but the seats are rotating in availability if you are willing to wait. I like how they play jazz music instead of songs with lyrics (makes it easier to do work). WiFi connects but it doesn't work so I had to use a hotspot. There's outlets to charge along the wall or at the booth seats. 2 hour parking right outside if you're lucky! read more

Got a mint latte (iced), I liked how the mint flavor is subtle but complements the espresso well. The service is very quick, and the interior decoration is nice -- with lots of tables for studying/doing work if that's your vibe. I always meant to come here in undergrad, but never made it here, glad I got to try it eventually read more

I enjoy Mishkas because it provides a great study environment for me. But man, the wifi is just awful. Sometimes I'm sitting here for an hour and it simply wont connect. Good coffee and nice staff. read more

What we got: Drinks -Snickerdoodle latte 3.5/5. Creamy and not too sweet, but would've preferred the flavor of snickerdoodle spices to come through a bit more (somewhat muted). Decent price. Aesthetic/Design 4/5 -Larger space though tables are pretty close together and when we went it was pretty packed so expect not a lot of room to maneuver if busy. Tables outside available for seating which is nice (assuming weather is good). Warm colors with decor & design that evokes a rustic, old school cafe vibe. Service 3.5/5 Probably because they're crowded often, more about getting the order down and out! Not rude though which is saying a lot for how many customers they get! Ordered 2 lattes of the same flavor that did take a while but again, wasn't too much of an excessive wait considering the high load of people they have to cater to. read more

Busy, busy! The inside of Mishka's is pretty tight, but there are plenty of small tables outside! Our drinks were good! My partner and I each tried two different flavors of the coffee cake and sadly, both were a little dense and tasted like refrigerator /: I wonder if heating them up may help w/ this? read more

We two stopped to have a coffee while walking around Davis. My Americano was very good, as was her decaf latte with non-dairy milk; both were served in ceramic cups. It was pleasant to sit at a table outside in the sun and watch the world stroll by. read more

Stopped by for coffee and it was pretty busy already by 8:30 on a Saturday morning! They have a great location in the middle of downtown Davis. I wanted to try one of their seasonal drinks so I chose the pumpkin latte since I saw on their Instagram that they make their pumpkin syrup in house. Unfortunately the drink was not pumpkin enough. The top of the drink is covered in cinnamon and it was all I could taste despite trying to mix the drink as much as possible. As a result it just tasted like a cinnamon latte. My husband's drink was much better, love that they had a dirty Thai Tea here (it's called Jolted Thai). They also have an impressive pastry case so lots of things to choose from for you to enjoy with your coffee! The service is truly hit or miss. The guy was super nice but the girl could not crack a smile or say thank you. You could barely even hear her behind the protective screen at the cashier, and she looked so annoyed that I bothered to even ask about our blueberry muffin even though she was the one who never gave it to us... I'll consider coming back to try other drinks in the future since they have a good selection of seasonal options, and I'd love to upgrade my rating, but for now today's first experience was so-so. read more

Great coffee spot in Davis. Great selection of coffee and pastries and treats. The staff are always friendly and the coffee good. Sometimes it is too busy so I usually get it to go. But typical small city coffee hangout. Great local spot that students and locals alike share. Give it a go. Only downsides is it is a little pricey and sometimes there is a wait. read more

This place was super cute and the service was amazing!! They accidentally made one of our drinks cold instead of hot and were so kind about fixing up a new drink quickly. I had the secret garden latte, which is one of the seasonal drinks, it was lavender and rose and it was such a delicious combination! Our barista also helped recommend a drink to my mom who is always very indecisive, and she was very happy with her drink! read more

I got the pecan bar here and the iced chai latte. It was just ok, the chai latte was super watered down and not memorable. The pecan bar was delicious and so decadent. I love that they served it chilled and it tasted super fresh. Would recommend coming here for the pastries, kind service, and lovely ambiance. I love the tables and the little placards on them as well. read more

Ahhh, Mishka's, definitely my favorite coffee shop in Davis. I usually come in for the wide varieties of tea, but on a hot day I went for the lemonade, which was an excellent choice. This place is popular, which means it can sometimes be hard to find a table. read more

10/10 experience every time. Mishkas is my favorite local cafe - a go to place to study and a great spot to bring visitors too! Lattes and matchas are always great (not too much milk which I really like) and the vibes are always superb read more

After arriving in Davis for an event scheduled for three hours away, I fortuitously got parking right in front of Mishka's and decided to knock out a little work and drink some tea. The place is pretty packed, but I could easily see why: I had a number of solid tea choices, and the chocolate chip cookie I got didn't taste like it had come from a giant vat of cookie dough. My Assam iced tea was brewed perfectly and came from good leaves, not something a lot of other places can say. The service was friendly and easy. Lots of areas to work in, and I appreciated that Mishka's makes it clear that you can work inside at a seat-for-one or on the couches up front, or outside, at one of their many tables. read more

Nice setting, pretty good coffee. However, it is expensive. We also bought a lemonade juice thing that was so diluted it was clear and tasted like straight water with some lemon. read more

The drink was alright, not the best I had. But tell me why my friend and I came here to study and her IP was reported to be attempted to get stolen? Left immediately because we were scared.

Love loveeee Mishka's! Great and relaxing place to hang out and get some work done while enjoying tasty coffee and pastries. Staff are friendly and get your order out as quick as they can. Be prepared to wait as this place is a hot spot, but always worth it! read more

Mishka's is exactly what comes to mind when you think of a locally owned, community coffee shop, whose house made drinks and pastries have become a downtown staple. They are often busy, but that goes to show how popular and well-loved their food and drinks are. It's also super fun to follow their instagram stories to see the new flavors of scones and muffins they serve, which can get super creative! The inside is warm and cozy, with locally-sourced art, and plenty of seating, and the outdoor seating is just as lovely, with a view of the surrounding downtown area. On this visit we ordered a pumpkin latte and a peanut butter mocha, which were artfully made. Their drinks do not tend to be on the sweet side at all- something I really appreciate since I am not much of a sugary drink person. But if you are looking for more Starbucks-like flavor, definitely ask for additional syrup and/or sweetener. We also ordered the peach scone with passion fruit icing, and all I can say is you need to go order one for yourself to truly experience the soft, fruity masterpiece. It can be really easy to make scones wrong, but Mishka's has it down to a science, with perfect balance of moisture with a crumbly texture, tasty fruit pieces dispersed throughout, and a sweet, tangy icing to tie it all together. The food and drinks do tend to be on the pricier side - you are definitely paying for the quality you receive - but they are a perfect every-once-in-a-while treat, or weekly splurge. Mishka's will forever be a top contender among some of Davis's already impressive coffee shops, and I highly recommend stopping by, for the wonderful food and drink, and the comforting community feel. read more

A cafe with a rustic interior and cozy vibe. It appears to be an extremely popular study spot for students and teachers alike because it was super packed when my friend and I went, but luckily we were able to secure a seat. Finding parking might be an issue, but luckily downtown Davis has lots of parking options. It'll require a bit of walking but it shouldn't take very long. I was very fortunate to have found parking right in front of the shop. As for the drink, I ordered the Rose Latte and it tasted okay. There wasn't much taste to it unfortunately, just a very subtle hint of coffee. But I guess it is a latte after all. If I want more coffee flavor I'll probably go for something else on the menu. read more

A local took us here for an afternoon pick me up and right when we walked in, I really liked the coziness and atmosphere of this shop. I like that they separated areas for casual sitters and people who are there to study/work. You are greeted by the smell of coffee and you can see delicious-looking pastries from the get-go. The menu has your typical espresso drinks, but I noticed they have a good variety of flavored lattes. I got the Mishka's latte, which is just a vanilla latte, but it seem to be popular. This is not your standard vanilla latte; the vanilla flavor is more pronounced, but not entirely artificial. Don't worry about being basic because it's worth trying. I was a big fan of the maple latte as well. It doesn't taste strongly of maple, but there's a smell and aftertaste. Service was curt but no big deal. I wish I came here in the morning or at another time because we were way too full to try the pastries. I'll save it for next time. read more

Coffee unfortunately just wasn't good there so many other coffee places within walking distance that have better quality

My chai was so sad--ordered it oat milk and tasted like it was made with water. Had barely any taste. I wanted to support a small business and the decor looked cute. So many ppl sitting inside and outside. Should have gone elsewhere. Pricey for low quality. Better off w a tea bag read more

I was enjoying my coffee before hitting the road back to the Bay Area. I opted for the cappuccino, and it definitely tasted great. Even though I've been to Davis before, I never had the chance to visit this cafe, and I must say it didn't disappoint. read more

Nice place to read or hang out with friends. Whenever I needed to get out of my house to study, or read, I would end up in Mishka's somehow. I like the enjoyed the conversations with staff as well as drinks. Mint or lavender latte what I would recommend but not at the same time :D Mint latte was after meal and lavender was for the mornings! I also appreciated their tea options! Definitely give it a try! read more

Each visit to Downtown, Mishka's is always busy. Today, we walked in just to see what it was all about. Entering the cafe, there is an unspoken understanding that it is a place to simultaneously study and unwind. The baristas are pleasant and the seating inside is ample, but set very close together. Nonetheless, the vibe is very chill. We ordered a hot medium roast coffee (large) just to get a feel for the place. Then we sat outside where there were more tables and chairs and a bench to absorb the atmosphere. Many conversations surround you, while enjoying your sips of coffee, but it is not overwhelming. The natural shade of the trees and occasional breeze makes for a pleasant experience. The coffee itself was okay, although it's nice to enjoy knowing the establishment prides itself in both social and environmental justice. I think I might try something else next time just to have another experience. read more

Mishka's Cafe - Medium Roast Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Davis, California

This cafe is very cute and had a lot of seating available, both outdoors and indoors. It seems like a good place to work remotely or get some studying done! Their lattes have a good strong coffee flavor, not overpowered by the milk. The maple latte is sweet, but the maple flavor isn't too strong. I would also recommend getting their croissant sandwiches, especially if you ask for them warmed! The croissant is nice and flaky, and the sausage/egg or ham/cheese are both delicious options. Very filling and great to pair with coffee. The cinnamon roll was a bit dry, but having it warmed definitely helped as it slightly melted the frosting on top and softened the inner layers. read more

Great cozy coffee and tea shop locally own and run. A friend that lives near by walked me over here today to get a drink and chat. The interior has that unique personally that is comfortable, welcoming. Love that they have a ton of different tea options to pick from. I only drink iced teas and ice water. Most places have ice tea options of black, green, or white. This place has a whole menu of options for each type of tea. WAHOO! Got a butter croissant which was large, fresh, and as tasty as it should be. The music is jazz all today (my only visit so far). Fits the place perfectly. It plays so one can hear it, but from what I see in the room, no one has a problem also focusing on computer work as well or chat. It is pleasant but not overpowering. Seating inside is plenty for small tables and chairs or benches. Many tables outside in the front and side patio. Trees and umbrellas, even the building depending on the time of the day offer plenty of shade most of the time. read more

REAL CAFE! I did not have much time here, but just fell head over heels in love. Felt like I was transported to Paris or somewhere in Eastern Europe, or Montreal, or the 1960's,....something like that. Something about the high ceiling and all these little wooden tables filled with serious students studying, and friends leaning in, having intimate talks...the news paper just laying around. Oh, and they were open at night. That's what got me too. Excellent Organic coffee. I got an in-house-made gluten free snickerdoodle cookie to-go, and did not have till the next day, long gone on the freeway. But I would turn around for other one. And Davis, you are not that easy to get to, but I will go back for this cafe. read more

Came here and ordered a lavender latte and I was honestly disappointed with its lacking flavors. There were so many people in the cafe though, so maybe I just came on a bad day? I liked that there were many bakery items to choose from though-- not many cafes offer the variety they had. The cafe was packed to the brim with every seat taken up. I was actually surprised to see how crowded it was in there. I've never seen tables arranged so closely together... read more

I was meeting up with a friend for coffee and decided on this spot. This place has a loud and lively atmosphere, even on the weekdays. I decided to try the Lavender latte and thought the flavor was okay -not too sweet or overwhelmingly floral. I just wished there was a bit more of that earthy coffee flavor. Next time I will ask for a double shot to see if that amps up its flavor. I also ordered a Lemon Poppy muffin to go with my drink and was disappointed when it came out cold. Overall not the best coffee I've tried... but it's also not the worst. Davis is so highly saturated with coffee shops that it may be a while before I decide to give this spot another chance. read more
