    Pistachio Frappe & Caramel Macchiato Frappe :))) - we started downing them befor we got to take a pic ;)
    Harley Q.

    Very homey comfy feel to it. Friendly customer service :) we ordered the pistachio frappe and caramel macchiato frappe they were sooooooo good! They had milk alternatives which is a yay for me! They also had these chocolate braided danishes that were oh sooooo good! Look forward to dropping in again :))

    Aesthetically pleasing and so quiet. Employees were very nice and accommodating. We ordered a Carmel latte and a iced matcha Chata (horchata). Both very good! I will be back! Luckily this place is close to home!

    Hidden gem! I was very excited to try this cafe after all the reviews. It was beautiful inside, spacious, with lots of seating options inside and outside, and plugs to do work! Was very quiet, the baristas were kind, and seems like they have a pretty decent food menu too. Best part? Ample parking. It's connected to/part of a church so lots of parking. My americano was smooth and well made. Great place to work and I'll be back!.

    While the customer service was excellent I unfortunately received a matcha with spoiled oat milk that was clumpy. I've attached photos for reference...

    Came here to work a bit on Friday after my morning workout. They are located next to a church I believe and they have a large parking lot. The place is spacious and there was hardly anyone there when I arrived. They have a variety of options when it comes to snack and food. I opted for a egg and cheese croissant and a cup of coffee. The croissant tasted really good. The coffee wasn't too strong which is what I enjoy. I was going to use the 15% yelp check in but the lady at the counter didn't understand what I was talking about. BUT the prices here are so reasonable compared to other coffee shops, so really there is no need to use the check in option. Definitely on my list of places to work in the morning.

    AHH!! Such a nice looking cafe. It has a very nice aesthetic and photos hung up on the wall. They have a section of books where you can read and put back whenever you want to. I love the little decor they have everywhere, and the seating area is so nice! Customer service was awesome, they greeted us kindly and looked happy to be there :). As for the food, I loved it! I got the turkey cheese croissant, which was a 10/10. I also got the hazelnut latte + split a banana nut piece with my uncle, we both liked it very much. It tasted very nice cold, it would've been even better warmed up. (They of course asked us if we wanted it warmed up, it was my fault for saying no lol). There was another family there who looked very happy to be there, and honestly I think that's what you would look for in a cafe. Good food and smiles :). The parking space is also huge! I recommend

    Eating takeout while exercising the dog and doing some light work.  Tasty sandwich.  Side of Jalapeños were a bonus.

    Espresso Social Club is such an easily missed spot since it's on a street with not much signage…read more Drive by, and you really will miss it! Walk by, and... you have keen eyes if you catch the sign by the door. Walk in, and you're welcomed by the most inviting woman who's ready to make you one of the best espressos and drinks from scratch. I'm not one to be venture out of a basic iced latte, but I knew I had to go for one of their seasonals when they had black sesame - unfortunately sold out! (Even at 11am... must be popular!) Somehow, some way, I had the privilege of trying their iced oat latte with black sesame foam. There was everything to like about this drink from the perfectly bold espresso - a good balance of nutty but toasty - but also a sesame cream foam. After getting the drinks, there is a quiet space to sit around and lounge about. Have a book or magazine? The couch is perfect. Have work to do? There's small tables in the hallway or even a large table and desk inside the private room. Comfortably enough, the ambiance itself is best described as open arms exclaiming "Welcome Home!" almost like a friend or neighbor is inviting you to their apartment for a cup of coffee. Wi-Fi and outlets are definitely available here. The only thing to bring to reach a flow state is your own set of noise cancelling earbuds. The walls and doors are indeed paper thin, and the traffic from the street does have a way of echoing and rumbling these walls. Other than that, though, my only bittersweet feeling with sharing this glowing review of Espresso Social Club is that finding space to work on future visits might now be a bit more competitive.

Their menu is short but they have availability to mix and match flavors to the type of drink. I can't forget to add in seasonal drinks too. The employee at the counter was very kind and quick, despite having to make four drinks on her own. I got the matcha with honey, vanilla, a splash of condensed milk with oat milk and it was delicious. There were a few couches and chairs to sit the few minutes while my drink was curated. There's even artwork on the wall to view while waiting. Simplicity but quality, that's how I'd describe the ambiance, decor, and drinks. I'd definitely make another trip.

Travis was so accommodating, even though at some point we had taken over several tables (in our defense it was not particularly busy). Now, I come here sometimes when I'm not running late to work/have some extra time to spare in the morning. The space is set up great for catching up with friends (like we did) or getting some work done (I always see at least one person on a laptop when I drop by). There's a little parking lot right in front, and I've been able to park there easily each visit. I normally order some sort of cold coffee. On my most recent visit I got a blue mint latte, which was both aesthetically pleasing and delicious. I'm also a fan of the pastries. I've had some sort of tomato pastry and a jalapeño cheese croissant, both of which satisfied whatever savory craving I was having. I appreciate the resources posted, the signage that's up, and the community events that happen here. The energy and intention behind this space are wonderful.
