There's good balance of matcha and cranberry taste. Tried it iced, tasted perfect. Salted Honey Rosemary Latte: very interesting and delicious. Came back for seconds on both drinks.

They offer seasonal and special drinks on the menu, many great options to choose from. Barista is friendly. Tried Raw coconut latte - only available in cold, it was delicious. Personally I think $7 and up for a coffee is a bit overpriced in Merced. Plus, they charge an additional $1.10 for substituting oat/soy/almond/coconut milk. If I'm in the area again, I would return and try other drinks.

I finally decided to stop in with my 5 y/o son. The outside decor and ambiance were adorable and the merchandise had fun designs. Unfortunately, the interaction with the owner completely changed the experience. He seemed irritated from the moment I ordered a hot chocolate for my son, correcting me in a rude and dismissive tone that it was "hot cocoa" and annoyedly asking how many I wanted. I said one and then asked if they had a menu so I could see what type of coffee they offered. That simple question also seemed to frustrate him and he dismissively responded, "It's just coffee," while shaking his head. His overall tone came across as arrogant, annoyed, and dismissive over normal questions, which made the interaction uncomfortable. I was shocked by the attitude, especially from a business owner. Maybe he was having a bad day, and I do see many positive reviews, but I also noticed other reviews mentioning similar experiences with the owner. It's disappointing because we were really looking forward to trying this place. I ended up saying never mind and leaving. My son didn't understand why we walked out without getting what we came for and I explained that I didn't want to support a business where customers are treated rudely. I truly hope the owner is doing okay and is able to treat customers more respectfully in the future because it seems like there's a great product behind the business. Unfortunately, I never got the chance to try it.

The best coffee in Modesto…read more One of only two coffee roasters in Modesto City proper, Milone has been roasting superior coffee for almost 30 years (since the late 80's). It all began as Plantation Coffee Company, a roastery & full service cafe. They closed the cafe part of the business long ago, & today operate as wholesale distributors. Where can you sample some Milone coffee? Several local businesses carry them...Sabatino's, Michael's Pizza, Papapavlo's, Velvet Creamery, & Picasso's, just to name a few. I was particularly impressed to learn that the coffee I had at Sabatino's, which I loved, was just one end of a surprisingly broad & prolific spectrum. From Brazilian roast to Fogburner, there's a roast for every palate. And after sampling just 2 of their roasts, it was easy to surmise that any coffee lover will find a Milone roast that he or she loves. Not a business owner? No problem. You can come in & purchase beans by the pound. But remember that this isn't a full service cafe. I had the pleasure of meeting Scott during my most recent visit. Scott knows everything about coffee. He's basically a walking & talking coffee encyclopedia. He is also beyond personable. A gem. This is the best coffee in Modesto. 5 stars.

[Clayton Coffee & Tea] -- [Modesto, CA] Final True 5 Rating:…read more4.6/5 1. The Core Offering (Food/Product): 5 / 5 This place offers so many different things! From teas to coffee to equipment. What they offer is fresh and always good! I've never got Somthing from Clayton's coffee and not liked it. 2. Execution & Consistency (Service): 5 / 5 The service here is amazing! They really take care of the customer. Every time I walk in I'm always welcomed with a smile and great service! 3. Environmental Design (Vibe): 4 / 5 From the outside it might seem a little off or you're not sure where to enter from. Once you go inside it's great! There is a small room where you order and a bigger room where the magic happens! It's really nice. 4. Attention to Detail (The Little Things): 5 / 5 I really like how there is an espresso machine in the welcome room. You can really smell the coffee when you walk in! I do also really like the menu. The design is really cool! 5. Price-to-Value Ratio (Wallet Test): 4 / 5 The prices are not bad, typically around $22 for a pound of fresh coffee beans. I usually get half a pound which comes out to exactly $11. Not too bad. Over all this is a really good place for coffee and tea lovers! Coffee is all in the beans and this place really offers a very good product!

If you are passionate about your coffee and don't like the sad, brown ash they sell at the…read moresupermarket (yes even the high-end snooty ones are ash). If you are a coffee aficionado and want to appreciate the complexities of the magical dark brew. If you have realized that nothing but the best, the very best will do in the morning; and that whatever else the rest of the peasantry drink is brown swill; then and only then will go here. Order online, order the beans, open the bag, and marvel at the jeweled tones of the dark amber, oily, beans. Your hands will smell of coffee and chocolate when you touch them and you wont want to wash your hands afterward. Grind the beans well (almost to a fine expresso grind), make a pot, and take your first sip. I guarantee you will never, ever, go back. Promise. Cross my heart. We have been customers for 8 years, and I have hesitated writing this review for 8 because I don't want to share the secret of why anyone who has coffee at our house goes into paroxysms of delight. Well, this is the reason. My top choices? The Columbian, if you like a dark yet fruity magical complexity. If you like subtle chocolatey overtones, I recommend the costa rican.

I believe there is a confusion on how to make the mocha, hence the name given in the drink. I'm are also patient in waiting, since I know the barista is working hard there solo, but this is the second time this happened, apparently the barista said that is how they were trained to make it. It was just a latte flavored drink. I really do miss how the owner made it. I will try to come again and hopefully the mocha will be corrected. Other than that, this place has amazing coffee, staff is friendly also!

There's a lot of stuff to see in the little place, so you won't get bored waiting for your order. There are little trinkets for sale, and flyers, newspapers, etc. Would definitely like to come back again and try some of their Twilight or Star Wars themed drinks!

I couldn't decide which coffee to try so they offered me samples! Black Magic was a best seller and my favorite of the 3 hot coffees.
