Great coffee, great food, and great setting, but the baristas and workers made it feel like we were interrupting them. Wasn't feeling a warm welcome right away. Would love to come here more often if the vibes get a little more positive. read more

Great food and quality coffee served up by genuinely nice people Highly recommend if you like good craft, local coffee. read more

Pause Coffee House - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Rocklin, California

Nice, quiet coffee place. Not too crowded... I liked it. Coffee is great, chia pudding was awesome. I would recommend

Love their other location on Madison but I think they need to work on this location. Coffee always tastes different here, its a hit or a miss. Last time I got a extra shot vanilla latte and I tasted milk more than anything. The coffee making bar area was really dirty and not kept well. - The inside is always crowded and has akward seating, pretty noisey. Tried sitting outside and all the tables and chairs were really cheap and dusty/dirty on top. I honestly just got up and left. Lots of potential here, needs better management. Madison location no complaints. read more

They serve award winning coffee(look up Onyx Coffee Labs). Only thing that bums be out is they don't serve hot drinks in a ceramic coffee cup after 4pm, so if you forget to bring your own mug you're drinking amazing coffee that has slight taste of paper and has micro plastic in it from the inside lining of the paper cup. read more

The pricing here is a bit bizarre. I ask for a 16oz strawberry matcha iced latte...the menu clearly states $7.50, she first rings me up for $8.50. Tax isn't that much extra, so I look at the iPad more carefully. Apparently, the strawberry flavoring is .50¢ extra. I ask why....the menu states that the drink already comes w/ the strawberry & prices it as such. She ends up removing it, so don't feel shy to speak up! Drink was good. read more

If you're looking to get some work done while having good coffee, Pause Coffee House won't disappoint. The name of the coffee shop is just it... take a pause a have some coffee! Haha But first, let's talk about space! The interior is modern and all the furnishings and decor make you feel at home! There's different styles of seating as well. They have sofas, small individual tables and chairs, large tables with shared seating and much more. Which is why I said this place makes a great place to get some work done! I ordered an iced vanilla latte and plopped myself onto their larger tables. Their vanilla latte had more coffee than vanilla (which by the way IIIIIII loveeeee). And since I was waiting for my bf to finish work, I figured I'd get some work done here as well! The staff is super friendly, drinks are good, and the space is welcoming! What else could you ask for?! read more

Pretty good coffee! Very friendly staff and nice atmosphere. Easy to find parking since it is in a big strip mall. Lots of people hanging inside with their coffee. Despite it bring pretty busy the line moved quick and we got our drinks fast. Would come back if we are ever in the area. read more

honestly one of the best new coffee shops as of lately, it's hard to find a good cold brew but this one was amazing. I loved the staff as they were very kind and i can't wait to come back and try more menu items. read more

I had planned to meet my friend for coffee and I gave him the option of this spot or another nearby coffee chain. He luckily chose this space and I was delighted. This time I ordered a cappuccino and a almond croissant. The croissant was light and delicious and the cappuccino very well made. The espresso was nice - full body, low acidity - and the foam was rich and slightly sweet. The service was great and I appreciate the attention given to all the customers. Definitely a spot to go when in this area. Just excellent service overall! 5 Stars read more

$5.50 for a mocha and they can't even fill the drink cup. SMH Definitely am not encouraged to return. Should I ask for a refund and not drink this? The worst part is the foam makes it look even more full than it actually is. This cup is only 2/3 full. read more

Pause Coffee House - Sad. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Rocklin, California

Not open until 6pm on Sunday, and zero indication that they close early. Drove across town to work here and they have no indication they close at 2:30pm. Even their door says Mon-Sun 7:30am-6:00pm. Not sure what it is with businesses and inconsistent hours lately, but if you change your hours have the courtesy to your customers to make it clear you've done so. read more

One of my favorite places. The coffee is great, the vibe is just right, and the service is always great.

These days I really appreciate a coffee house where I can get a good cappuccino in a real cup and saucer. Even better if they have some tables where I can enjoy a quiet respite. Such a place is Pause. To top it off they serve pastry from Ettore's. This is my new fave coffeehouse in Rocklin. read more

Like all their branches, they never disappoint! Always an enjoyable experience with good coffee, products, ambiance and staff. Recommend! read more

I just went here with my friend!! I always get a bagel sandwich so yummy with a butterscotch latte! My friend has a baby and she loved the oatmeal!! Perfect for families as well as a good study place, I love taking my friends here. I enjoy things much more here unlike Starbucks which I don't even go to because I love supporting small coffee places!! Definitely a must go! Nice people, yummy food and drinks, beautiful inside too!! read more

Good place and good service I like the coffee here but The sounds are too loud , The staff are very helpful.

Came here for coffee and breakfast while I waited for my windshield to be replaced. Plenty of seating indoor and outdoor. Got a latte and avocado toast. Latte was delicious and nothing special about the avocado toast. Don't know if I would come back for the toast but would definitely come back for a latte or maybe pick up a growler of cold brew to take home. read more

Being a college student, finding a good coffee shop that not only has good coffee but great seating is hard. Pause met my expectations for sure. The coffee was good, I got a cold brew. It wasn't extremely bitter or watered down, you can tell they didn't over brew it which I appreciate. The coffee shop itself is very cozy. I appreciate all the windows in there allowing an ample amount of natural light coming in. There weren't many outlets in the cafe which was one downfall but that's fine. The service was really nice and the baristas were honestly chill. read more

I have always been a huge fan of Pause! I was so excited when they opened their Rocklin location because it was closer to where I lived. I look forward to the iced maple latte every time I go! It's amazing hot as well. Something about the maple just feels more comforting than a simple vanilla latte. Their cold brew is also exceptional. The decor is more industrial in nature so it can get a little loud in their during busy periods, but the outside patio is shaded and a great place to work if you need some Wi-Fi for work or school. read more

Oat Chai and Cold Brew. Really good and fast service. Not too busy for a Wednesday morning. read more

Under New Ownership... I have not tried the previous coffee shop "Origin Coffee & Tea" but I can say that I'm excited to see Pause Coffee at this location which is only 2 min away from my house. I've been to their Fair Oaks location numerous times and I'm a fan of that location... with that said as soon as I saw a new location close to me I had to give them a try. Location is great which is in a small shopping center right off Sunset & Park. Parking lots are plenty but It may get a little busy during lunch hour since McDonalds is right across. Service on my first visit was great and I was greeted by the gentleman in the front as soon as I walked in. Inside is spacious with plenty of seats and same thing can be said of the outside. Now onto the coffee. I went with a regular Maple Latte and it was a great choice. I can definitely taste the rich coffee flavor which was not overpowering but at the same time I got a kick of the maple syrup "great combination of both" I know they'll have to work a little bit on the deco and inside seating but that should be expected since they just took over like 8-10 days ago. Overall great experience and my first visit was great. 5 Stars Overall read more

It's a hit or miss at this location nowadays. My recent visit I observed a customer tell the barista they forgot to add vanilla syrup into her iced latte. When I received my hot vanilla latte a few minutes later the barista made the same mistake and forgot my syrup. In addition my latte was over steamed. Instead of remaking my drink, I was given syrup on the side. I would have preferred it remade since it was a hot latte. It seems like the baristas here are lacking attention to detail. I've had better service at the Pause Fair Oaks location and feel like the baristas there are more experienced. read more

We LOVE LOVE Pause! Their cappuccinos are unmatched, the people working are wonderful, and the owners are absolute GEMS! Thankful to have Pause Coffee in our neighborhood! read more

The pastry with cherries--the Best! My go-to for this pastry. They should make more so they don't run out by 2pm. read more

This is a very cool coffee house. Had the maple latte with oat milk and it was fantastic! Not too sweet, very yum. The vibes in the coffee shop were very cool. Recommend. read more

Cool little coffee shop. Liked my coffee and bagel sandwich but $19 little pricey side. I was trying to do some work but outlets are a little limited so keep that in mind. Otherwise the vines are good that's what you're paying for. read more

This coffee shop is very cute, but I was bummed that I couldn't order food since they close the kitchen at 2 PM. The shop however is open until 6 PM daily. read more

Great place for a chai latte and a chat with my college bestie! Spacious tables and quiet in the mornings, although I hear students take over in the afternoons. read more

We love Pause Coffee! The staff is so friendly every time we come in, coffee is great, we even had their coffee catered at our wedding! Thanks Pause for your amazing service and drinks. This place has been a local hang out for my community for years now and hopefully it'll continue being one for many more years to come! read more

Came here in the morning because I needed coffee and a quiet place to work. Love the ambient is great, both inside and outside. Outside tables were in a size alley so traffic going in front of the coffee shop is not bothersome at all. The only annoying thing is that they use Square for payment and I started to receive spam emails immediately after. read more

I'm a huge coffee fanatic and was pleasantly surprised by their coffee Smooth and subtle espresso which is my favorite! I ordered an oat milk latte with sprinkled cinnamon and an iced almond milk vanilla latte for my friend. Both were delicious!!! They have a large space with lots of seating. Highly recommend read more

This is just a really Large coffee place that has literally nothing in it. There were not. very many options at all or really anything to offer it's overpriced and it's clicky. The girls that are at the front are young and not very willing to make good menu options. I asked for iced coffee. They only offered me one option I asked for some flavoring in it. She just poured a bunch of maple syrup at the bottom of my cup not for six dollars for barely a medium I just feel like there's better places. I was just kind of disappointing. It looks like everything's possibly premade as well. A lot of money to pay for a small coffee and have it not really do the job. I'm gonna try to drink this down but it's not very good. Oh, and keto drinkers beware there's no heavy cream at this place either they only offered half-and-half and basically they just shove you a cup of cold pour and there's cream in the corner and you make your own coffee, so I'm not quite sure what I paid the extra tax amount, for they didn't even make my coffee read more

Who doesn't love cool caffeinated beverages on a 100 degree day? My daughter and I came across Pause when we were on the hunt for a morning coffee spot. I don't have anything crazy to write on but most of the time you really don't need more than good service and drinks. This place delivered! There was also a lot of seating if you're looking for a place to work or get your study on. Enjoy! read more

Pause Coffee House - Iced lavender latte and iced chai latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Rocklin, California

The coffee is just delish! I get an espresso drink and a cheese danish every time I go. I'm telling you, it's a recipe for a great day!

Good coffee. My almond milk vanilla latte was spot on. Unfortunately, you will be surrounded by lots of non-paying customers whose choice of drink is water. While they take up precious space, mooch the wifi and electricity for free. Good luck with being profitable. Also, if you have rules about not grabbing a table until you have ordered, people won't follow it if you don't enforce it. read more

Not bad place to study ! The tables are large and spacious. They're teas are delicious iced or hot. The only thing is the wifi is unreliable. There are times it works but there are times it does not work. read more

Tried this place for the first time a couple days ago and was a big fan! Ordered two iced coffees, the maple and honey lavender. Both very good and on the sweeter side. Loved how you could taste the lavender in my coffee. I got the avocado toast. They put a lot of avocado on it which is awesome! I'd say the avocado mixture was a little sweet which was odd and the sun dried tomatoes on it weren't good but they were easy to pick off. My boyfriend got the savory crepe and seemed to enjoy it. Would definitely come back and try again. read more
