    Great selections

    This cafe is inside of a business building, so when searching it on the map it may seem a little odd. It is open to the public and when coming in let security know you're here for the food. I look forward to eating here everytime I'm in Vacaville. They are open for breakfast and lunch. They have different specials and then weekly staples as well. The food is made fresh and certain foods are made in small quantities so they can be sold out. They also have fruit infused water with the perfect ice for their customers. The chefs have been there for years and take pride in their work, it shows. Every meal I have had is delicious and reasonably priced. Dont leave without getting a cookie, they are truly delicious!

    Maybe I shouldn't post this review because then everyone and their mom will start coming here! This place serves breakfast and lunch.. came here for breakfast wanting a croissant with eggs bacon and cheese! Super duper happy right now! My daughter got a breakfast burrito and was equally happy! Prices are beyond fair too! We'll def be coming back here to this cute, clean, and delicious cafe that not many seem to know about.

    There's nothing unique or special about this place, it's reminiscent of a hospital cafe.

    I can't get authentic food like what I hate at Vaquero cafe in where I am. At times I do crave for the food and the sauce amazing.

The biscuits and gravy had really good flavor. Pretty much everything we ordered was fire. Our server was great. She was really nice and attentive to our needs.

Food: I ordered The Cowboy which consisted of eggs, waffle, and chicken fried steak. Everything was hot including the waffle. So nice! The waffle was a slight bit crunchy on top but really soft otherwise and it was delicious! The chicken fried steak was very tender and the gravy wasn't bad but it could have used a bit more salt. The coffee was a bit mild for my liking. Service: When I walked in there was no signage so I stood for a few minutes without acknowledgement. Finally a young man with light brown hair approached and looked at me but walked right past. When he passed again I asked if I was supposed to seat myself? He looked off and muttered "yeah it's going to be a few minutes" then he walked off. It didn't answer my question so I continued to stand until another server invited me to sit at a vacant table. The same young man was observed tossing the food and bussing the table of a nearby customer who had gone to the restroom. His server came to the rescue however by making him a plate to go. My actual server Mary was nice and tended to my needs but it was a bit of a wait between being seated, getting drinks, and placing the order. Overall its a strong 4 rating that could have been a 5 with a little more attentiveness from staff. Definitely recommend though!

Clean establishment, very simple menu! Love their seasonal menus! They craft some good drinks! They do have a point system where you can redeem "seeds"! And my ice mocha was free today! Customer service at every location is wonderful! And the Pachamama team know their regulars that come in! They have nice merch at this location too! I will say their drinks are just top tier and their chocolate they use for their mocha is THE REAL DEAL! None of that sugary chocolate! You can taste the CACAO! Which I appreciate!!

The space is larger than I anticipated, which was nice. I checked out their specials and opted to order their olive latte (it was made with olive oil). I was hoping they had some type of pastry, but alas, nothing except a few prepackaged bars. Once I got my latte, I took a seat. The latte was OK. I thought I may be able to taste/at least smell the olive oil undertones, but didn't. The latte was good. Will I be back? Maybe.

Couple others ordered the Cubano and said they enjoyed it. Service was attentive and quick. One odd moment occurred... me, my wife and her aunt arrived before others and ordered a cappuccino each. It came in a large glass mug. After the other 5 showed up they also ordered coffee but they received it in to go cups. When we asked why they said they ran out of clean coffee cups.... The views are spectacular and we sat outside. Definitely someplace to try again next time with a glass of wine.

There's a counter area where you can order coffee, pastries, breakfast items, or food to-go, while the left side has a hostess stand if you'd prefer full table service inside or on the patio. The brunch menu was a bit limited, and I ended up ordering the croissant sandwich. The croissant itself was soft and fresh, but overall the sandwich left me wanting a little more flavor. It was on the smaller side, didn't have much bacon, and even with the preserved tomato aioli it felt a bit underwhelming. The breakfast potatoes also weren't really my favorite. They were small whole potatoes with the skins on and heavily seasoned with cayenne pepper. Personally, I would've liked another side option such as fresh fruit. That said, the staff was very friendly and welcoming throughout the visit. For two croissant sandwiches, two iced teas, and a side of fries, the total came to around $70 with tip, which felt a little pricey for the overall experience. The property itself is beautiful. It looks like they host live music and events in the outdoor quad area, and I noticed they also offer wood-fired pizza after 11 AM, which honestly sounds worth coming back to try. Overall, I have mixed feelings as the atmosphere and service were great, but the food didn't quite live up to expectations for me personally.

The beet salad was also delicious, and major appreciation to the kitchen for thoughtfully splitting it into four equal plates for sharing. Small touch, big hospitality points. The lemon ricotta pancake was the one slight miss for me. The powdered sugar ended up being the main character, overpowering some of the balance and richness I was hoping for. The fish tacos, however, completely redeemed things. Flavorful, fresh, and made even better by our incredibly thoughtful waitress, who had the kitchen prepare four tacos for sharing instead of the usual three. Those little gestures really elevate the experience. But the true standout of the meal? The Back Door Berry Bramble. Pure bliss in a glass. Made with seasonal local fruit purée, lime, grapefruit, orange liqueur, and vodka, this cocktail absolutely knocked it out of the park -- bright, refreshing!!!
