Cuteeeeeeeeee. This lil coffee shop is adorbs... tiny on seating but big on charm. Snagged a blueberry matcha with non dairy ube cold foam, light sweet, iced and wow... so good. Already plotting my next one.

Winter Menu!

I been coming to Pachamama for a very long time, the Davis location is my newest morning stop! Their coffee is top tier and is sourced from the best places around the world, as well as Organic and farm owned as they say! Clean establishment, very simple menu! Love their seasonal menus! They craft some good drinks! They do have a point system where you can redeem "seeds"! And my ice mocha was free today! Customer service at every location is wonderful! And the Pachamama team know their regulars that come in! They have nice merch at this location too! I will say their drinks are just top tier and their chocolate they use for their mocha is THE REAL DEAL! None of that sugary chocolate! You can taste the CACAO! Which I appreciate!! And thank you for always having my whole milk! Stop by for your next caffeine fix here!

Matcha latte with oat milk and simple syrup and cold brew with simple syrup

Beautifully handcrafted, delicious drinks made to order. Friendly Service with a smile! Wish they had more seating outside as inside sitting is filled on most days when I've ventured in for a drink. (Weekdays are a bit less crowded depending on time of day..) Ordered 12 ounce iced mocha latte with oat milk. In my experience, I order the drinks on the regular menu over the specialty ones on the sign boards. In the handful of times I've visited, the taste on the regular menu drinks seem to be more consistent. The specialty drinks can be a hit or miss. If it's a miss, tell an employee as they seem to be open to great making adjustments if customers give feedback. (I've not done it myself yet but I've overheard conversations between staff and their customers.)

I love supporting local coffee shops. Especially when their drinks are good, which this place was! Friendly staff. Quick and efficient service. Cute merchandise for sale. Small and intimate on the inside. I'd visit here again.

Pandan matcha
Brian G.

I stopped by when they were having a seasonal drink that I wanted to try: Pandan matcha! I love pandan so I thought it was solid, could have had more pandan flavor but at least the matcha flavor comes through. Pachamama is probably one of the better coffee shop options in Davis if you want something more fancy than Starbucks.

Wanted to get a cup of coffee in Davis to find out it also has a cute little study space. I ended up getting the Iced Maple Brûlées latte which was very good and strong. Just how I like it! The Criollo Mocha was just a bit too spicy FOR a drink. Was hoping for a hint of it but it kind of overpowered the chocolate and the drink in general. The place was really cute and the workers were really polite and helpful!

Iced matcha with oat milk
Alana E.

Stopped by for some quick caffeine in the morning. I went on a weekend morning, but there were only few other customers inside. The store was also super warm for some reason. The baristas were friendly and chatted with me and the other customers. I ordered an iced matcha latte with oat milk and took a seat. There is plenty of seating inside, though only a portion of it is accessible to the counter, so most people wait for their drinks there before moving to a different part of the store. It is well-lit and not too loud, and has plenty of windows facing downtown for those who enjoy people watching. My drink took a few minutes to come out, but was worth the wait, as it was very good.

I was so excited to try this place out after seeing the reviews on Yelp. This was a great way to start the day. Parking was easy as it was around 10:30am on a Saturday when we went. It's definitely a great place to study or hang with friends. We were greeted kindly as we walked in. My boyfriend & I both ordered Pandan Matchas with oat milk. I added extra matcha + cinnamon on top to mine. It was so delicious and I really enjoyed the Pandan flavor. I'm a huge Pandan fan already so this was such a treat! To note, their restroom was clean + for anyone coming for their first time, ask for the bathroom code.

Seasonal Spring Menu 2025
Rheanna C.

I came across this cute coffee shop while searching for a good matcha place in Davis so shout out Yelp for the great recommendation! It's located a little on the outskirts of downtown Davis so parking wasn't too hectic on a Friday afternoon. The inside is very spacious with ample seating and charging spaces for study-goers. The inside also has a nature-y atmosphere to it as the many windows allow in natural lighting and there's also a lot of plant decorations. The bathroom is located in a separate hallway that's connected to the other businesses so be sure to ask for a code! As for the service, the baristas were super helpful and quick to make drinks! Now, onto the star of the show: the drinks! I ordered the spring seasonal menu item: Pandan Matcha with Oat Milk. Thankfully, the pandan taste was super strong and paired smoothly with the matcha. Overall, the drink tasted nutty, floral-y, and sweet! Definitely something I want to come back for! YELP TIP: Bring cash because there's a credit card fee!

A friend and I stopped here on a wintry December afternoon seeking the warmth of a good cup of hot chocolate. It was cold and drizzling outside. The whole morning and afternoon would be like that. Pachamama came highly recommended for good coffee and good cocoa. I ended up getting the large cup to go. The friendly staff got my order up and ready in not much time. While waiting, I inspected the interior of the shop. Tidy, nicely furnished and very open-feeling. There was a bay window area with a sort of wall counter for cups where people could perch with their hot beverages and read. Or look out the window. In a short amount of time, my order was ready to go. A quick sip ...yummm! This fit the bill nicely.

Love Pachamama Coffee in Davis. The coffee is always fresh tasting and they have quite a few choices. I had a cappuccino and it was made perfectly. Staff is friendly and very knowledgeable. Love this coffee house. Definitely a recommend in Davis.

Maple Brûlée
Courtney O.

While driving to San Francisco with some friends, we decided we needed to stop for coffee and Davis was the perfect spot. We decided on Pachamama Coffee as I have never visited before -- I know there a couple of locations throughout Sacramento as well. I'm always a fan of a seasonal menu so I picked the Maple Brulee and it was very good! It was the perfect pick-me-up for our Girls Night. My friends liked their drinks as well. The inside is fairly small, but there are tables inside and out. Staff was friendly and gave great recommendations. I will definitely be back next time we are in Davis or I will be checking out one of their Sacramento locations very soon!

Cortado
Han-Nha T.

Best quality coffee in Davis at a reasonable price. It's a smaller, bright and open shop with a counter with chairs along the side so this is not the place students come to study. I got a togo cortado and the batista offered me sparkling water. Don't get that too often. Sweet, rich, warm. I think Temple or Mishka have better coffee ship vibes, but this I'd my favorite cup.

As a self acclaimed coffee "snob" in-training it was a huge plus to see them roasting their own beans. I knew the coffee was gonna be good. I got the vanilla lavender earl grey cold foam latte which was a seasonal drink and it was very good. I also got a savory breakfast croissant which I gobbled down before I could take a picture. They had plenty of seating areas so great for students to study or just a place to catch up with friends. Will be back to try a hot coffee next time.

The Cloudbreaker immediately met my taste buds with bitterness and then left my tongue completely numb for several minutes. Perhaps those sensations would have paid off if they were followed by a calming or THC-like effect, but I didn't experience any change in mental state. The comfortable atmosphere saves this establishment from 1 star. Dim lights, leather couches, chill music, and colorful tiki wall art make for a decent study spot or date night. However, if you're hanging out at a business, you gotta support it, and to support it, you gotta buy something -- I can't see myself buying anything kava-related with any ounce of enjoyment. Surely there must be some variation of a kava drink that tastes delightful. I don't want to spend any more money finding out though.

There is a lot of table space in the cafe and when UC Davis is in session, I've found many of the tables to be occupied by students doing just that. Mishka's Cafe has been around since 1995 and is a beloved place in Davis. It's a traditional cafe that has a welcoming atmosphere. When you first walk into the cafe you'll see the food case just to your left. It is filled with cafe items such as croissants, muffins, and cookies. There are savory items as well as sweet. I found the quality of the food here to be quite good and unique. Sometimes cafe food just feels like it came from somewhere else, but even if these did, they have a uniqueness about them. For example, the chocolate croissant is very flakey with a good amount of chocolate in the interior. It really surprised me! I also found the ham and cheese croissant to be very rich in flavor. My only gripe about either or these items was the heating method. I'm not sure how they are heated up, but they feel as though they used one of those quick heaters to quickly get them ready rather than a good toaster to get the items nice and crisp. As good as they are they were a bit limp due to the heating method. In terms of coffee, it's perfectly adequate. They have special offerings as well as their traditional menu. I found the coffee to be mild and friendly. It's not too strong nor very unique. It's just a solid cup. Sometimes that's really all you need.

So much food and we were able to try 2 different teas each.

Mom and I were out and about in Davis on Saturday visiting the amazing art galleries in the area…read more It was a little bit of a drive as the Causeway was backed up as usual. On average it takes around 22 minutes to get there from Sacramento. Parking can be a challenge. There is some street parking, but I prefer to park in one of their lots. The lot I choose has 3 hour 3 parking. Tea List is hidden down a pathway behind Pence Gallery, one of our favorite Galleries to visit. If you don't know it's there you may never find it. I found them googling high tea salon in the area. It's the only high tea salon for miles that I'm aware of. Granted there are lots of tea and boba shops around, but those are not the same as having high or afternoon tea. For variety we used to go to a Tea Salon in SF's Japantown, but they have since closes so we are very limited on High Tea salons. We've been coming here for years and we have a great experience every time we do. To me Tea List is a special occasion place and this being a special occasion we popped in. To my happy surprise they were still open and seating was available. There were several tables open when we arrived and 5 tables were in different stages of their tea parties. In the past I've always made reservations a week in advance. When we walked in we were informed that they were only serving their 4 different tea service options. They sometimes serve individual items, but I've never gone when that was an options so that is a little mystery to me as to when you can offer individual items instead of ordering a whole tea service. I ordered us the Afternoon Tee for $27.50 each, I belive there is minimum order of 2. This is the least expensive of the tea services and also provides the least variety. The presentation was spot on. They first brought out matching tea cups and saucers and gold rimmed plates. The sugar was served in individually wrapped packets in a sugar holder and the cream was in a creamer dish. The tea was served in plain white tea pots and we were given a 3 minute timer for the tea to steep. The loose leaf tea was in mesh bags to keep the leaves contained. The sandwiches and desserts were served on a 3 tiered platter and beautifully arranged. Though it's plenty for us. We were first served warm berry scones with fresh Devonshire cream. They were Devine. It helped that the scones were soft and flakey. My favorite sandwich is the cucumber mint, but.... The bread was kind of stale so that was a bit of a bummer. The chicken salad was ok, I wish it came with more grapes and something lighter then the huge roll it was on. The roll was over powering. The veggie garden was good. I liked it on the petite toasted French roll at the same time it really didn't do anything for me. My mom liked the turkey pesto one, it came on wheat bread. The bread complimented the sandwich. For dessert there were 2 French pastries. A vanilla macaron. I would have preferred pistachio as that is my favorite, but vanilla is good too. There was a Neapolitan. It was very flakey and hard to eat. I liked the macaron better. For fresh fruit they were thinly sliced kiwi, orange, apples, and strawberries. A petite serving. We sat outdoors under their awning. They draped fake wisteria along the front and back of the awning. Even being fake, it was quaint. Before we sat they draped a white tablecloth over the table. They presented me with a menu and lots of the items were crossed off. It was kind of tacky. They really need to redo their menus. On the back side of the menu they offer Strawberry Long Island tea, sadly they said they use a new distributor and they don't offer that tea anymore. This is really sad as it's my favorite tea. We were given a small list of the current teas they were serving as the menu is outdated. We had two green teas, a single tea pot per person. Pomegranate Hibiscus and Lavender Butterfly. After adding the cream (Whole Milk) and sugar (brown packets of Sugar in the raw they both tasted pleasantly the same. We added a single packet of sugar to each cup. The tea was very tasty and I would order those two flavors again. Overall the tea service was delightful. They can use some minor improvements, but even that said we will be back for our next special occasion.
