Traveling up and down the i5 California to Oregon, will definitely put this on my 'repeat stop' list. Got a medium almond milk latte that was so smooth with the right amount of foam that was out of this world good. Adorable small shop with a fantastic looking pastry case too! Happy to support this independent shop with delightful service. read more

Rescate Coffee - Medium almond milk latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Elk Grove, California

Make this shorter I'm over the half ass effort when it comes to supporting a business ! I paid for a viet coffee which had hella ice mind you!!!! (you would think he would fill it to the top!!) I asked if he could and the register guy said maybe add half and half , the barista or whatever his name is got hella smart and snapped at me saying it's gonna be a latte and it's extra!!! I JUST WANTED MY DRINK TOPPED OFF. At this point I just threw the drink out and left. I did not like the service or the way he spoke to ME OVER A TOPPED DRINK!!!!! IS CRAZY! Nasty ass fool! Work on your fuckin customer service !!! P.S not the owner justifying and adding a poster was torn down. Door was never slammed , your door isn't that loose. Keep covering your actions up. Learn or maybe take a course for customer service. No one tore down a poster . And a unsatisfied customer should never be a thing when entering your store . The narrative is out played . Simple. Learn to greet and satisfy your customers . Clearly I was unsatisfied and your justifying and lying . You're sick dude. No accountability at all. Pps: if I was notified about the oz you think I'd still react base off your reaction... no ... read in between the lines and stop lying , nothing was shared or told... read more

Very cherry forward and well balanced with Mexican chocolate and a hint of cinnamon. Amazing!!!! Staff is great. Good seating inside and a few tables outside. read more

Stopped at Rescate Coffee for the first time. I was in the area getting gas and was excited to see a local coffee shop close by that wasn't Starbucks. I usually always get a latte but saw they had a snickerdoodle latte and had to try it as I'm a huge fan of snickerdoodle cookies. I was nervous and hoping my drink wouldn't be super sweet and I was so happy to take the first sip and taste beautiful classic snickerdoodle notes without it being syrupy and sweet. It tasted so comforting and delicious. I also opted to get a blueberry scone and it was a bit sweet for my palate but still super tasty. Service was also great. They were friendly and welcoming. 10/10 experience! read more

Rescate Coffee - Snickerdoodle latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Elk Grove, California

Came here to meet with a friend from church. I haven't been here in forever. I used to walk here for coffee before I moved. I forgot what I used to get. Anyway, today I ordered the iced caramel macchiato to play it safe, but they have an amazing menu of drinks and pastries. The coffee was perfect, not too sweet-- I could taste the coffee with the perfect mix of caramel. The decor here is so rustic and cute! It was busy with lots of people coming and going to catch up over coffee. Great place for just that! I'd return to try more of the menu items. Service was wonderful, they were patient & welcoming. read more

I came to Rescate with my partner to study and had read several reviews describing it as a study-friendly spot for students. We were there for about 30 minutes when a worker asked if we had been helped yet. I explained that we hadn't ordered yet but that we planned to order later. He then told us that if we weren't going to order, we'd have to leave because the tables were for paying customers. I completely understand that a locally owned business needs customers to purchase something in order to use its seating, and I would have been fine with ordering. However, the way this was communicated felt very passive-aggressive and made us feel unwelcome. When I asked whether he would prefer that I order at that moment, I still felt uncomfortable because it felt like I was being pressured into making a purchase rather than welcomed as a customer. We had also just received news that a family member had passed away, so unfortunately the interaction felt especially discouraging that day. I understand and respect the business's seating policy, but I think the way a policy is communicated makes a big difference in how customers experience a business. We ultimately left feeling unwelcome, and unfortunately Rescate lost two potential returning customers. read more

Amazing spot, nice and comfy. It's a very cozy spot. You can't sit outside but right now it's a little chilly but they do have a couple of plush seating tables. The coffee is really good. I had a croissant with bacon and cheese. That was really good so if you're in the elk Grove area, please come check out this spot. It's so cute and quaint and the service is amazing like absolutely amazing everybody smiling cracking jokes just reliably during the weekday I may come back to work. read more

Rescate Coffee - Yummy - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Elk Grove, California

I have been passing this place for a number of months now and I finally came out last Friday with one of my friends. Immediately when we walked in, we were graded. It was pretty busy in there so there was really nowhere to sit inside, but we were accommodated with the outdoor seating. I can definitely see myself coming back to this place because it's so warm and cozy and I can tell that it's an environment that I would just love to just sit and sip a cup of coffee alone or even have a friend or two join me. During this trip, I had a snickerdoodle latte and a bacon Jalapeño croissant. Delicious is an understatement! I think next visit I'm going to dare only try the Vietnamese coffee. My barista already told me that it is going to pack a powerful punch lol read more

Rescate Coffee - Outside - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Elk Grove, California

This is such a cutesies cafe to grab a cup of joe and studying/work. The space is very clean, lots of indoor and outdoor seating, and the music adds a homey atmosphere. All of the wood in and around the store really creates the vibe of a cozy cabin. There's also plenty of seating outside to embrace the fresh air and it's a bit quieter since it's away from the coffee machine and music. The baristas are very attentive and friendly. They are great at giving suggestions and accommodating customers' preferences. Drinks are made very quickly. Immediately noticed how busy they were, however, it was never uncomfortably packed. A lot of service workers nearby came in and out for a quick cup of coffee. I love how regulars are greeted by name. Online orders are prepared swiftly and almost always ready for pickup, impressive. The drink I tried is called the Xocolatl Cereza which is essentially a Cherry Mocha. It is served iced, which I mention because at this cafe certain drinks ONLY come iced or hot. Anyways, the cherry flavor is very intense and tastes really artificial. The espresso is strong and the chocolate flavor in the mocha is balanced. Very interesting drink, I enjoyed it, but I would not get it again. They also offer a wide variety of pastries and even savory foods that can fill you up like sandwiches. The strawberry cream croissant was yummy! Not too sweet, buttery and flaky! Perfect snack to pair with my coffee as I got some work done. I definitely want to come back for the vibes and to try more coffee drinks!! The only reason why I am leaving a 4 star review is because two baristas were flirting profusely, touchy PDA, and cussing loudly-- Obviously, I tried to ignore it. But as the behavior progressed, I decided to leave as did a few other customers near me. Other than the disruption, great visit!! read more

Congrats on 10 years! When I lived in Elk Grove, Rescate was my go-to coffee place. I haven't been there for over 5 years, but came in today because I was in the area. Same great coffee and really friendly atmosphere! Great to see they expanded their menu since the last time I came in and they still serve my favorite drink, the Monkey Mocha which is a mocha with a banana flavor! read more

Rescate Coffee - Iced S'mores Mocha - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Elk Grove, California

4-ish stars rounded up. Alright brew taste in terms of smoothness but still solid drinks that are on the strong side. Good vibes from the staff here! - Strawberry rose mocha (May special): much more decadent than expected even for mocha standards lol but not bad at all! No skimping on the flavorings including the added sugar; it tasted just like a strawberry cream chocolate from See's Candies but with dark chocolate. Definitely a dessert-y pick-me-up. - Snickerdoodle (latte): eh, pretty much tasted like a vanilla latte; could've had more cinnamon presence. Cranberry nut muffin was pillow-soft. Coffee cake scone was also tasty but I wished that it was a bit heartier and more buttery. Very friendly staff! Also quite refreshing to see good camaraderie between staff members at a coffee shop. Cozy interior to match. Most of the parking spots out front were occupied by patrons of neighboring businesses, but drive further into this small plaza and you'll find more available spots! read more

Absolutely amazing coffee!! My husband and I love coffee and are in the boundary of being official coffee snobs so it can be difficult finding a place that meets our standards and quality we seek. This place DELIVERED! Husband got vanilla latte and I got the special latte with cherry and Mexican chocolate with oat milk, about 75% sweetened. It was so so yummy. The food was great too! Got savories and sweets from the counter window items. Love that we're just down the street, will be coming back soon!! read more

Food at a coffee house not so great! Avacado toast with bacon was disappointing. It was supposed to have cucumbers, but they ran out. Avacado was a smeared version instead of sliced avacados. Halfed cherry tomatoes placed on top. It was one slice of untoasted sour dough bread. Service- place your order at the counter and boxed meal brought to table. Ambiance- very small place that was filled with lots of comfy sitting areas inside and some tables outside. Most indoor spots were taken with people sipping their coffee and on their laptops or phones. read more

I've driven by this shop many times but didn't stop in til today. The specialty drinks menu has some crafty drinks. I ordered a large Zoot Suit (Mexican chocolate/white chocolate). First sip was a bit sweet, but a couple of sips later, I think it was just perfect. Staff very friendly. Brought drink out to me. Staff are very accommodating, asked another customer if temperature of drink was hot enough. I stopped in at 4:30 on a Tuesday. Good traffic still even though it was close to closing time. Lots of seating arrangements. I sat on the couch by the Christmas tree. Very comfortable. Good background music. Looking forward to trying other drinks/food. read more

This place is more than a beautiful local coffee shop!! This place became my second home. In May 2025, I walked into Rescate for the first time to study for my MCAT. I was dealing with terrible allergies, stressed out, exhausted, and honestly doubting myself every day. As a first-generation college student navigating this exam on my own, the pressure felt overwhelming. I spent nearly every day at this café during the month leading up to my exam. One day, the owner noticed I was falling asleep while studying. Anthony came over and offered me a coffee just to help me get through the day. From that point on, Anthony and Brenda constantly encouraged me and supported me throughout my journey! They showed me so much love, kindness, and consistency during a time when I truly needed it! Going into the exam, I struggled with major imposter syndrome and genuinely didn't believe I would do well. However, the day before, Brenda and Anthony created a gift basket with encouraging notes and snacks. Little did they know, that basket and their kind words gave me the courage to walk into that exam room the following day. Some coffee shops sell coffee. Places like Rescate offer love and care to their customers!!They are more than a coffee shop. Fast forward to today, I will be attending the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA! This could not have been possible without the love and support of Anthony, Brenda, and Dr. Andrea Casillas. Sí se puede. ¡Gracias, Rescate, para todos! read more

I stopped into Rescate Coffee after placing a to-go order next door at Gai 'N Rice. I love trying new coffee shops and this location has been on my list to try for a while. The inside is such a vibe, it's warm and welcoming and the staff definitely match this energy. They offer a wide variety of coffee and tea options, as well as some bites. I was overwhelmed by the menu choices and fought off the urge to buy more than one drink... I could have walked out with a whole flight of options! I ended up asking the staff what their favorites were and they talked me into trying the Zoot Suit, a mexican chocolate and white chocolate coffee. It was delicious, and just the energy burst I needed to get through the rest of my errands and meetings for the day. This little plaza is a bit hidden, but they have easy parking and with Gai 'N Rice and Rescate right next to one another I have a lot of reasons to come back for more yumminess! I'm excited to explore more of the menu in the future. read more

Today I decided to support the locals vs going to Starbucks. I checked this place out while at the car wash next door. I saw they had Vietnamese coffee. When ordering my coffee they asked me had I been there before? I said it was my first time and she explained how their Vietnamese coffee is served. Pretty much a cup of ice 3 shots of espresso. Which was perfectly fine and I was aware. Even though I got a disclaimer on what to expect, I was still blown back by my cup of coffee not because it was full of ice. But because it wasn't sweet at all! If they added the proper amount of sweetened condensed milk their coffee drink would look presentable and not questionable. read more

Plenty of parking, ADA friendly, super friendly staff, helped with selections. Outdoor and indoor seating available with plugins available for devices. We ordered the large Zoot suit (white chocolate and milk chocolate with 2 shots of espresso, yummy! The cranberry nut muffin was moist and tart. Both items for under $10 I'm checking out the space for a coffee meetup and the only suitable space for a large group is outside. The outdoor seating area is located about 50 yards from the car wash next door so there is a lot of loud noise and loud talking and a little overspray of water! We came on a Monday afternoon and the car wash was running the entire time we were there. read more

White mocha is fabulous! Cute and clean shop. Service was quick and welcoming. Thank you!

i love rescate the coffee is so yum, it's just so hit or miss depending on which barista you get. Once i got it a bit too sweet where i couldn't taste much coffee just sweetness (zoot suit) and then the next it was perfect (tuxedo) to my liking. I tried their honey bear latte and it was also quite coffee tasting and lacked sweetness but honey is also such a light taste. I do love this space as it's great for studying and the service is always really quick and nice. bonus points for their music. read more

Whenever I'm on this side of town I'm sure to visit Rescate! Their menu is so fun- with snickerdoodle being my favorite latte so far! They have tons of food and pastry options as well. They also serve Pressed Juice, which offer fresh ingredients and wellness drinks. They have milk options and offer customizations. Friendly staff as well!
