I love this quaint coffee shop! Zanders has been a morning staple of mine for years... it is consistently good. The employees are all friendly and the wait time is never too long, especially if you order inside. I love supporting local small businesses, especially this one that incorporates the Chukchansi language on their cups. read more

Zanders Coffee - Coffee Roasteries Near Me - Coarsegold, California

The redheaded lass had great customer service. She served us promptly and kept things moving in a considerate fashion. I ordered the blended Mudslide with Oatmilk, which was phenomenal. It was sweet but their espresso was featured prominently within this large cup. My wife ordered a decaf iced Oatmilk Carmilla. This was the Door Stopper Award winner. It had several notable elements that won our hearts over. The decaf was clean tasting. I'm thinking they use water processing vs. chemical processing. Second, the coffee flavor was pronounced. Third, even with the coffee flavor tasting so good, it seemed like the caramel they used is freshly made here. Aromatic, pungent, smoky, yet delightfully fresh. They've definitely earned our return visit next time we visit the area. Thanks for the great experience!!!! read more

i got the lavender matcha 2.5/5 which was creamy but too sweet for me, my friend got a vanilla latte but for both of our drinks we didn't get the milk sub (for one of the drinks we were able to get changed without charge but didn't realize the second one also didn't get a milk sub which made it inedible). the atmosphere and staff were extremely sweet. read more

Zanders Coffee - matcha - Coffee Roasteries Near Me - Coarsegold, California

Overall, it's a good spot to pull over, stretch, and grab a coffee. They had a lot of options and different milk options available, however - the coffee was not rich nor the espresso. Tasted watered down. If there is a line, you will definitely have to wait - we waited about 35 minutes. Through the drive-thru, you order your drink until you get to the window which is why I think there's a longer wait time. Staff was nice but I'd definitely recommend you drive a bit further down to Clouds Rest Coffee. read more

First time trying the coffee here. We were passing through from a trip to Yosemite we saw a small flea market/ vendor event in the village and to walk around we got coffee at Zanders!! My son got the mudslide , my daughter got the milky way frappuccino and my partner and I tried the white mochaccinno. I should say we were all very pleased with our picks. They had a very good creamy base taste. We will be stopping by again on our next visit!!! Service was fast however they did get my white mochacciano confused and gave me a regular one but they fixed it and the goodness made up for it. They have a nice outdoor seating which is relaxing and chill!! Lots of seating to sit or grab and go !!! Recommend to try if passing through coarsegold !!! read more

Found this place online and stopped in on the way to Yosemite. I liked the coffee and the space. I was surprised it was a drive thru! The menu is a good size as they have all of the classics to the more complicated drinks. Definitely hang out in the town center and drink your coffee. Worth the stop! read more

I wanted a little coffee treat on the drive home to the OC and found Zanders through Yelp. It's in a little tiny touristy-looking area to the right as you're leaving Yosemite South Entrance. I wanted a blended drink which they delivered and it was delicious. I think I just got the Mocha and my husband got a Caramel blended drink. The woman inside was really nice, there were only two cars ahead of us and it moved quickly. I got out while we were waiting and walked around the little area. There's actually an entrance to the coffee shop around back and I saw a little table. Good coffee and great service - lucky to have this in a little town called Coarsegold! read more

Very cute coffee shop on the way to yosemite. Lovely staff, great variety of coffee, amazing collection of flavors for Italian soda. They had star wars themed coffee too. This place is surrounded by antique stores. Must stop if you are on the way to yosemite from the south entrance. We took Mochachino which was super refreshing. Coffee beans had perfect flavor. Poppy seed almond muffin was not that sweet, soft, delicious. They also had GF bakery options. read more

Cute spot on the way to/from Yosemite. In search of good coffee for the drive but didn't want to go out of our way. Found this and bonus, it has a drive through bc we had our pup w us.

I've been living here about a year. This community doesn't have a lot of choices but really for coffee Zanders is all you need. They have delicious coffee, smoothies and treats. I've taken them to go and we've sat outside and hung out. I love their space, it's a very peaceful place. If you are driving by, it's definitely worth a stop. read more

We were on a day trip in the area to visit the mountains and I was determined to find a coffee roaster to get some beans to go. Zander's was easy to find through Yelp and they were open in the afternoon on Christmas Eve. This spot is nestled on the side of the road and I believe is drive thru only, but easy to access and our order came out pretty quick. Four coffee drinks and one bag of espresso beans cost $30- so cheap! My sugar free, non fat vanilla latte was so tasty! Others in my party really enjoyed their coffee drinks too. I thought the staff were super friendly and helpful in getting our order out. read more

Was staying in Bass Lake and ended up coming back all 3 days in a row for their coffee! I had the Carmilla and couldn't stop reordering it to know what anything else tasted like, but I would bet just as good! It tasted like real coffee, Starbucks could never. The people were very sweet and helpful every time too! I wished I lived closer to really take advantage of their Zander's punch card read more

We just stopped in here on our way out of the National Park. The girl working the counter was SO SWEET. She was patient as my kids were deciding and she offered multiple lower temperatures for our coffee and kids drinks. She did all this with the biggest smile. The shop itself is a drive through and it has a tiny inside to order only. There are tables outside to enjoy your goodies. All of our drinks were delicious and so were all our baked goods. They were very fresh and delicious. This is definitely a local favorite but also perfect for travelers. read more

I came here and I absolutely loved my coffee! I got the cold brew and was looking for sugar free alternatives and the young girl working was so helpful! I got some of the best customer service! Loved the Harry Potter drink menu, so cute! Definitely would recommend! read more

Coffee shop was so cute and small. Loved the service girlies were very nice. Will come back when in town!

I love the milkeyway blended its awesome. My old man gets the mudslide or the milkeyway. they have locally made treats and bagels, and even have some really great smoothies. They are considerate when ordering for kids and make sure to cool the cocoa and that was super nice! Nothing like Starbucks and the big corporations that we all are so used to, this place has over around 100 flavours it looks like and is super easy. Ive had both fast and not so fast service in the drive through, and always been treated nicely. Also I went inside to place an order unknowing they had already closed but one of the baristas still took my order and it ended up being free because they had already counted the drawer ( I only walked in because lights were on and someone walked in a second before me so I really had no clue) they are deserving of 5 out of 5 read more

Genuinely awful coffee. I was surprised given the positive reviews. If you like espresso-based drinks, I would avoid them here. Latte was pure milk; I couldn't even finish it, tossed it and went to the next Starbucks (which is saying a lot). The owner was especially short with me, and even charged me 75¢ for a 1/4 cup of ice. 100% do not recommend this place. You're better off going to McDonalds or Starbucks for a cup of coffee than wasting your money here. read more

I haven't been to this place for years because once I was there and they were making my $6 hot chocolate with water and a packet.

I really wanted to like this shop given that it's a small local business with native heritage and no ties to larger corporations. Disclaimer that the staff was not the issue, they were kind and patient. They were busy but acknowledged me as they made their way to take my order I usually order two things from most coffee shops: coffee for me, and a matcha for my wife. I dislike matcha but I know what a good matcha should taste like, and unfortunately the matcha just did not the marks. I can understand that matcha isn't their main product but it shouldn't have been as plain as it was. Now for the coffee, I was genuinely disappointed it. I'm plagued as an aficionado (6 years in coffee) because I look for certain details and flavors. I read the bag for their dark roast and was eager to try, so I asked for a single shot of espresso. The bag lacked any detail for tasting notes and the types of beans, which dramatically effect the flavor, but I was optimistic. The flavor of the Dark Roast espresso was appalling...it was too light, extremely fruity, and biting on the tongue. All the markers of a light or medium roast and/or low quality beans...not a hint of bold, deeper flavors as a dark roast should have. I checked the website for more information and was surprised to see how they handle roasting their coffee. It's rather impressive and conscious of health quality. Unfortunately, it did not lead to an impressive cup. All of this to say the coffee did not meet, not just my standards, but the typical standards of any knowledgeable coffee drinker. read more

Mini drive-thru! Worker was really nice! Two medium .Americanas with nonfat milk.They did not have nonfat, but did have almond milk. That instead. Good coffees and good service! Recommended! read more

There is no better coffee in Coarsegold, Oakhurst, or the surrounding cities south of Yosemite. Great black coffee, delicious specialty drinks, and delicious pastries. It's a perfect stop for coffee lovers. read more

Zanders Coffee - Carmilla large with extra Carmel - Coffee Roasteries Near Me - Coarsegold, California

Best coffee, atmosphere, and customer service in the area. I recently ordered my favorite vanilla latte with oatmilk and it was amazing, I just tried my first ever Americano that my girlfriend got and it was the best (black) coffee I've ever tasted. I've tried to like every other major shop from Oakhurst - to - Fresno, and this place beats them all. It must be in the nature of it being a small-business, and owned by a lady who I believe is a Chuckchansi native which means there's a passion and spirit of friendliness and quality that comes through every experience we have there. I recently moved and will travel back when I come to visit and come here since I won't get coffee while going out from anywhere else! It's a pleasure to support a tribal-owned business in the area and leave knowing you're taking part in a fantastic coffee experience, it's worth going out of your way for. read more

Wanted a little caffeine for the drive home from Yosemite and stopped by for a latte. I ordered the popular iced carmila and my husband got an iced mudslide with added caramel. The carmila has vanilla and caramel and the mudslide has chocolate and hazelnut. I thought my drink was too sweet and couldn't finish it, but my husband enjoyed his. He's not much of a coffee drinker, but if it's sweet, he's into it. read more

Stopped here on the way back home from Yosemite. Great coffee. Bought a bag of their medium roast to brew at home.

Great place to stop by before heading to Yosemite. We got the blended Carmilla latte. Very delicious and like people have mentioned better than Starbucks. So happy we found this hidden gem. Also plus they have a drive thru. read more

Zanders Coffee - Blended Carmilla Latte - Coffee Roasteries Near Me - Coarsegold, California

Cute coffee shop close to where we were staying for the weekend. We came by to pick up drinks before our drive home and I originally wanted the cold brew but was informed it's only offered in the summer. However one of the girls working behind the counter offered an iced coffee alternative with a shot of espresso which was so great drinking for the 3 hour drive home. I was really impressed by the service and they knew other ways to serve customers even when something on the menu wasn't available. The roasts offered just smelled wonderful so definitely don't miss out on picking up a bag of beans to take home if you ever stop by here. read more

So cute! Adore this coffee shop, stop by if you're in the area. Everything is tasty. We wish they were open just a little longer but it is winter, read more

Zanders Mangonada with Almond Milk is the BEST so far (at least for me). I hope Zanders will serve Boba drinks soon!

There aren't many coffee places between here and Oakhurst so we figured we would give it a try, We got the cotton candy Italian soda, that was not good at all... went into the trash. We also ordered the mochaccino and carmella. Both were super sweet but decent. read more

Love the coffee, fruit drinks and great service, still wish I lived closer, always dependable.

Stopped by here on the drive out from our Yosemite visit as a back up option because the coffee shop we intended to go closed on Sundays. We are so happy that it worked out because we discovered a new go to spot for all future Yosemite visits! Love that it's drive through in a cute little plaza with little shops. We got: -iced vanilla latte (really good!) -hot latte (parents loved this and finished within minutes of leaving the plaza) -iced blended chai (this was the highlight. Wish we tried more of their iced blended because this drink was heavenly) The plaza also has bathrooms here as well so definitely stop by during a bathroom stop in/out of Yosemite! read more

We visited Zanders Coffee on a trip to Yosemite in June 2021, and the experience was absolutely incredible. The options on their menu are delicious! I got a Milky Way in a large iced quad shot oat milk latte, and I've never had a coffee this good. It was a delicate combination of mocha and toffee nut, with very rich espresso topped off with oat milk. My friends got similar drinks that were just as good. Their location is very cute, right off the highway in Coarsegold leading up to Oakherst, the main town before Yosemite Village. Their spot is super shady, which is nice for the hot summertime weather, and it was only outdoor seating, but they have a super cool wooden patio and a drive thru. It's also right next to a great breakfast spot, Wild Fig, which I also highly recommend hitting up after getting your coffee from here! The service we received from the baristas at Zanders was so sweet, and they were really helpful navigating the menu and what we would like best. I'm sad this location is SO far, but that only means I'll have to visit again ASAP because of how special my experience at Zanders was! read more
