Camellia Coffee Roasters

Given the harshness of the world, the seemingly inevitable economic and ecological collapse, and the propagation of endless conspiracy theories in an incredibly divisive country, finding a charming cup of coffee served by nice people in a good atmosphere feels almost spiritual. Every single member on staff here is so kind and giving. It makes you want to go out and figure out how you, too, can give back to your community. It's just coffee. But also it's so much more. The interior is beyond beautiful and cute. The coffee is delicious. Very positive vibes! 20/10 would Camellia again!

This place HAD been a reliable coffee spot with a chill atmosphere and friendly staff. Today was different. After placing my order I received the wrong food. I checked with my friend to confirm I had given my order correctly and they agreed. I went to the counter and a rude man with curly hair and glasses who had taken my order accused me of placing the order incorrectly. When I pressed that I hadn’t he remained steadfast. As a small concession he reluctantly granted a refunded. I’m disappointed since this is one of my local coffee shops. The experience was exceptionally poor. During my previous visit while seated individuals began placing “reserved” stickers on tables including mine that began 15 minutes in the future with the expectation that the table would be cleared for other parties to sit. Fortunately I my plans were flexible but I found the experience left a bad taste in my mouth. Even as a resident of the neighborhood I can no longer recommend this coffee shop.

My favorite coffee shop in Sacramento for sure! Definitely helps that they have the BEST breakfast sandwich I've had too! I enjoy coming here for their horchata cold brew with oat milk. I've had it so many times now, that I believe I've found the perfect fit. The horchata cold brew is already pre-made, and for my taste buds, it is a bit too sweet. My perfect combo is 3/4 of the horchata cold brew, and the rest of the 1/4 to be filled with their standard cold brew. Definitely cuts the sweetness out! Now comes the breakfast sandwich. It does take awhile for them to make it (especially if they are busy), but it is always SO good. The sandwich comes with a two-egg omelette, cheese, scallions, cholula spread, on brioche bun with your choice of protein (bacon, sausage, or veggie). I've had them both and I've them both in one! Only downside is there is limited indoor seating, and there are no outlets available. Otherwise, this is my go-to spot. Every time I'm in Sacramento, this is a MUST for the morning or a good afternoon pick me up for the drive back down to the bay. Street parking only. See you soon Camellia's!

Came in on a Wednesday morning We got a iced horchata latte with oat milk, a bacon breakfast sandwich, and a horchata croissant. LOVED the horchata latte, absolutely a must get! The breakfast sandwich was really good although they were very heavy handed with the pepper (you can see dark spots on the sandwich from all the pepper). Unfortunately I didn’t care for the horchata croissant. It had a hard crunchy exterior with a thick cinnamon inside. It was overly sweet for me and I prefer a softer croissant. I’ll stick to the horchata latte and the breakfast sandwich. Definitely will be back!
