    Olive starbuck smh light ice cmon

    Bad service. Rude drive thru made drink wrong size. Said to pay to upsize then just poured it in a bigger cup without actually making it or adding more. Would not recommend to anyway. Morning crew is alright.

    Idk bout y'all but I always need my coffee perfect. And this store did me justice. Staff are friendly and kind. There's plenty of good seating available and there's a drive-thru if you're in a rush! Stop by! Don't forget to leave a tip for the baristas!

    Brand new Starbucks!!! All your normal Starbucks items, however this location is HUGE inside, so much so that it seems empty, they could definitely add more chairs or better yet slap a fire place right in the middle and decorate the place to match Yosemite.

    Hazelnut shaken espresso, add vanilla cream cold foam. Too much oat milk and they forgot to add vanilla sweet cream cold foam.

    I just can't wait until the workers here get the drinks right. Today at the drive through they gave me the wrong size again. It's either the size is wrong or the drink is incorrectly made. Usually I'll just take it and try to be understandable because I get it sometimes mistakes happens especially when they're busy however this is happening way too often and I come here almost everyday so today I kindly let the gentleman at the window know that they had the size wrong, and so they made me another drink but this time the size is correct but the drink is not. I'll just tried again another day.

    My go-to! These lovely baristas memorized my usual order!

    These employees deserve a raise! Super friendly and quick! They take the time to get to know you and are super welcoming. Ive been working remotely in their lobby for the past week and I've witnessed countless encounters with an uncooperative customer, and they've handled it well. Not many customers are educated on the California supply chain shortage, and these employees cannot control whether they are out of Java chips or impossible breakfast sandwiches. Also, they cannot control how many employees order through the app and how many order through the cafe especially with little labor. We need to give these employees credit for working so hard and fast to get us a cup of coffee. If you are running late to work or school, do not order 10/15 minutes before your shift starts, that is not their problem especially if you're running late to work. If you haven't worked customer service or worked with difficult customers yourself, then please be mindful and do not take your anger out on minimum wage employees.

The atmosphere is super welcoming perfect whether you're just vibing, on your laptop, or catching up with someone.

The place itself stays really clean, including the seating area and even the restrooms, which is always a big plus. It gets busy, but it's because people genuinely enjoy being there. Overall, great drinks, great service, clean environment, and a solid vibe all around. Definitely one of those spots you keep coming back to.

    Dare I say the best coffee in the 209???…read more Hola Cafecito is the most perfect addition to main street Merced. The coffee, the culture, the vibes, the service! I have zero complaints. I try to make it here every trip home because it is so damn good. Let's start with the goods: the dirty horchata is done very well. Not overly sweet but you actually taste the rice & cinnamon and all the things that make horchata wonderful. The only thing that would make it better is if they offered this dairy free but minor detail! I will suffer lol The cafe con leche is delic! Brown sugar & cinnamon, another unbeatable combo. You really can't go wrong with any drink here. Not only is the space beautiful but the staff is super kind. My 83 year old dad is not comfortable ordering in coffee shops like this and they're always patient and helpful. No notes, 10/10 recommend.

The line to order was wrapped around inside the shop and out the door. I would say the bagels are 100% worth the wait though. They offer a wide variety of fresh bagels, cream cheeses, and toppings. They even have a sandwich menu! I ordered the Beesting Bagel Sandwich which comes on your choice of bagel with egg, bacon, cream cheese, cheddar cheese, and a hot honey drizzle. It was absolutely delicious! The bagels were super soft with a nice crust on the outside. The cream cheese was perfectly thick and creamy. The hot honey drizzle really tied everything together well! Because it was so busy, it did take a while to receive our food. The line to order, although long, did go by pretty quickly. There were some tables inside but it was too crowded to find a spot. Luckily we were able to find a table outside while we waited for our orders. Whenever an order was ready, the workers walked around both inside and outside shouting the name of the order which made it convenient for us to not have to fight the crowd to the counter. The only issue I felt there was was the cleanliness. When you are standing inside, you can quite literally see years of caked on dirt on some of the not frequently touched surfaces. The lamps probably had an inch of dust built up. Although this isn't the most important detail, it still makes me question the cleanliness of the whole establishment. Despite this, I won't be held back from revisiting if I am in the area again!

I was out in Merced a little too early for a work meeting, and wanted some coffee, but not a chain place. Lucky me I was actually just down the street from Jenny's bakery. I was warmly greeted as I came in and immediately feel the family charm of this business. Oldies were playing on the radio, and Jenny's husband was getting things ready in the kitchen. When I found out the Portuguese breakfast was her family recipe beans, and a half order of biscuits and gravy, I was set on what I wanted. I was provided an colorful coffee mug and allowed to have coffee to my hearts content. I opted for the holiday blend. It had a lovely hint of spices, but was not overwhelming. I had no longer sat down than my nice pipping hot bowl of Portuguese beans was placed in front of me and I thought it was a half order. They say it's a half order but that is the huge biscuit and with gravy you would need a party of four to finish. The flavor of the beans were just wonderful. I filled myself up on those and then sopped up some of the beans gravy with the biscuits. My taste buds were very happy. My stomach was over full. I enjoyed some banter with Jenny and her husband along with some patrons that came in. They really try to make everyone feel so much like they're just walking into a family kitchen. I highly recommend a stop and introduce yourself and make some new friends and find yourself a lovely bakery. That's been there right around the corner from the park.
