He was not a fan that the granola had raisins/cranberries and large chunks of almonds, but otherwise he liked it. The staff was very friendly. There was plenty of seating while we waited. The parking lot was tiny and a car selfishly blocked me in while they waited for their food. Still, a very worthwhile experience.

So... my feedback is very mixed…read more Food wise, from sandwiches, to bagels, empanadas... The actual food and drinks are very, very good. But everything else is a hard miss. Let's start with parking. Yes, given the location of main street Stockton Blvd to residential, parking can be quite a challenge here. It almost gives the same vibes as trying to snag a curbside spot at Airport terminals for pick up. Next, ordering. If you've ever just walked up to the counter, placed an order and waited 45 minutes, you'll try to avoid that next time! So... I started ordering ahead of time on their website. It's very user friendly and easy to make selections. However, today, May 2026, while ordering on their website, it literally prompted me to select a time for the order to be ready. OK, I selected 9:20 am. Why was my order not ready till 9:40? Why do you even have a mobile ordering option if i have to wait for 3 guests ordering at the register??? And, finally, there is no expediting. There's usually only 1 cashier. The back office kitchen staff never really surface to greet anyone or ask for names to distinguish orders. Also, why is there not a defined line for mobile pick up orders vs everyone else. It's literally just a walk up cluster fudge of nothing! You order ahead, still have to wait. You order in person, you have to wait. You have questions? Good luck. All of quality and care definitely goes into the baking and foodie experience, but what this business doesn't take into account is that think about your devoted regulars and the impression left. I want to support your business. I live kinda close by, but if I have to wait and wait each time... zero clarity of flow when I do walk up... And pretty much no improvements from my last visit.... It's disappointing.

Found this hidden gem for a quick breakfast bagel sandwich. This mom and pops biz has been here for…read more15 years. Henry, the owner, is the sweetest man and greets everyone with a "hello, friend!" I will 110% return and recommend this small, local, Asian-owned business again and again! Their prices are super affordable, very good value for what you get. And the menu actually has a good variety of sandwiches. The bagels are fresh and chewy. I had the breakfast bagel with ham, comes with scrambled egg and cheese, and I added cream cheese to my "all in one" bagel. It is a hardy sandwich. I just wish the bagel were toasted a little longer for more crunch. Next time will just ask for well toasted. Try River City Bagels (Deli)!!!!!

Forget Noah's Bagels, this is the spot to visit!…read more The owners are the sweetest people ever and the warmth of their shop is unmatched. The atmosphere is so cozy and you can tell they put their heart and soul into their space and products. My favorite part is seeing their daughter's artwork scattered around the shop. It is really small inside but they do have an outdoor patio with seating if you want to wait or enjoy your food there. Their bagels are so good and their prices are unbeatable for the quality you get. I got the jalapeño bagel with smoked salmon spread (yes you read that right and yes it is as delicious as it sounds) and it was the most decadent thing. I almost inhaled it before I could snap a photo. Their closed-face lox sandwich on a sourdough bagel was amazing as well. I love the addition of the cucumber and tomato, it was very refreshing. This will single-handedly replace your habit of going to Noah's. Can't wait to explore more of their menu!

Every table is full and there is a line of 10-15 groups snaking around the restaurant. The vibes are immaculate though, a dusty pink theme throughout with consistent cartoonish drawings on their cups, coffee beans, and signage. So many people, dogs, and babies. I do think this is a millennial and up age group, not many younger folks. They do have quite a bit of staff working hard behind the counter. On a cold gloomy day, this place is extremely cozy with the large bright windows. There is also seating outside! The horchata cold brew really does taste like cereal milk in the best way. The coffee flavor is actually very mild, but that may be a symptom of oat milk flavor taking over. Frequently referred to as the best breakfast sandwich in Sacramento, this place had my standards sky-high. The breakfast sausage and egg was definitely unique - the textures were all fluffy and soft, the brioche bun and folded egg omelette. The cheese was light but flavorful and the sauce balanced everything out nicely. I would say this is a solid breakfast sandwich, more untraditional, and definitely a must try if you're interested. We also ordered a salmon and lox everything bagel sandwich that was also delicious! I would have loved a bit more smoked salmon for balance but the scallion dill cream cheese was super flavorful! I would say both sandwiches were on the milder side flavor-wise but still extremely good!

So on a recent outing I had with my 23 year old daughter-we were making the rounds around town and…read morefound ourselves in Oak Park-After visiting a few local businesses we both needed a pick me up,so we saw Old Soul coffee shop nearby-so we decided to stop by and weren't we glad we did. 1st of all-when you walk in the lobby is filled with people doing what they do in coffee shops-hanging out-working on their laptops-reading books-socializing with friends-it was a real stress-free spot and I felt it as soon as I walked in.The people seemed like neighborhood people-a true hodgepodge of the Sacramento community-I loved that. I've vowed in 2026 I was going to open myself up to trying new coffee shops as I'm historically just such a creature of habit and it's experiences like Old Soul that make that vow so great-I really enjoyed this place. As far as coffee goes,this is what we ordered.I wasn't 100% sure what I wanted-was kind of looking for something less sweet and minimal sugar,so went with just their plain cold brew($6.00).My daughter went with their Sea Salt and Honey Shaken Espresso drink.($6.75) My Cold Brew was good-though I will admit a little boring of an order when trying out a new place. My daughters drink though-WOWSERS!!!...It was so good-I was filled with instant regret that I didn't go more adventurous with my coffee order and I'd wished I had gotten that one instead-it was really great. In closing-I feel like I'm way late to the party but Old Soul is a really great coffee shop and it has skyrocketed up my coffee shop rankings in Sacramento and I truly can't wait to visit them again.They are doing great things out there-well done. PS-They are located on the corner of 34th and Broadway so parking is 100% street parking-but it's plentiful and really easy to find spots very close-so zero issues with parking here.

After eating lunch, I was craving some Kombucha and was reminded that Old Soul has KC Kombucha…read more Which is a local Kombucha that's actually located right across the street. The flavor that was on tap was Coconut Lime and the barista was able to give me a sample. I was impressed on how good it was and ordered it. Overall this is a perfect place for studying or doing some work. I stayed here for a couple of hours and the environment was perfect, not too noisy and not too quiet. Would recommend this place if you want to support a local coffee shop.

I would say the only thing I would like added is a confirmation the day before pickup letting me know the order was ready. But other than that the whole process was very smooth . The bakery itself is very cute and full of delicious looking treats. The staff was friendly as well. I ordered a carrot cake and it was so amazing! My sister loved it! It was very moist, spiced just right and had a lot of the cream cheese frosting that everyone loves! But it also wasn't extremely sweet which I appreciated. QUITE A FEW people at the party stated that they were not normally fans of carrot cake because of the big chunks of nuts and raisins in it...but RAVED about how they loved this carrot cake (it didn't have those things)! They were sad to find out that the bakery is in Sacramento (the party was in the East Bay). I would definitely order from them again and I highly recommend. Thank you Freeport Bakery!

Unfortunately I came 5 mins before closing and while there were people still there, I felt like I should rush because I'd want to get off work too. Rugulach (I know I butchered it) was Tasty! Got both the chocolate and the raisin walnut cinnamon. Prefer the raisin as the whole thing tasted less dry. Bd enjoyed the biscotti but next time I'll get him the one dipped in chocolate. The orange and raspberry cookie with the almond paste was lovely! Crumbly melty when you bite into it, nice texture and not too sweet. Pb chocolate chip was the most generic. Wouldn't get it again. Have yet to try the slice of salted caramel cake which was recommended to try at room temperature. I meant to order a chocolate cake because of their rave reviews! Next time!

Our server welcomed us with a warm smile, which made the experience even better. They have plenty of options for food, drinks, and desserts.

Everything was perfection. The vibe was super cozy and comfortable. The only downside was the parking structure since there aren't many parking spots available. Overall, this is a very nice café, and I'll definitely be coming back.

Faria's traditional croissant in 2025 was top notch and comparable to croissants in Paris, it was THAT good. Better than even Bay Area croissants. It was fluffy, buttery and flakey. With the right amount of butter ratio. But something changed this year. Now it's flat, quite dry, w/ lowered butter ratio, and higher sugar content. Like Faria decided to cut corners? Sorry, if this is wrong. But it's now a MID croissant, when it was damn near perfect. I tried it a few times this year, just to make sure it wasn't a fluke. But obvious recipe change. What happened, FARIA?!?!?!?! When feedback was given under comments on their IG, they also blocked me. Weird. Why the defensiveness? Again this review is left w all due respect to what was a perfect croissant. No need to change a great product.
