Ripon Cafe

First off I will say that the customer service is top notch. I have always been greeted with a smile and a willingness to help. I love it. I really like the cozy space. The restrooms are beautiful, I felt like I was in a spa bathroom! Haha. However, the lattes weren’t as amazing as I thought, especially after reading all of the rave reviews. I requested whole milk (which is what makes a latte so creamy and delicious in my opinion) but they only had 2% which to me, is like a water latte. The breakfast burrito (with eggs, bacon, cheese, avo) leave something to be desired. It was very plain tasting with no spices or special mayo or anything to make it stand out from something I could easily prepare at home. Although I wasn’t blown away by the offerings, I appreciate that it’s a little hub for community in Ripon, we definitely need more homey places like this.

Yum yum yum. my favorite espresso drink is a dirty chai latte (chai tea, steamed milk, 2 shots espresso)
I always order these from any coffee shop I go to. but it literally blew my mind the first sip of the cup he made.
I usually grab a Pastry from here too. Anything from their bakery case will compliment your morning well :))
All in all, great prices, calm and easy environment, and the variety of food options is really nice to have in this little ol’ town.

Best coffee in Ripon !!! Very nice acomadating employees. Didn’t eat but have been told their breakfast burrito is very good. Will have lunch their sometime.

This place is a gem! Very friendly staff, I can’t understand other people who had a poor experience here, every time I’ve been in, seven or eight times now, everyone has been so friendly. The coffees and teas are excellent, and this place makes the best avocado BLT I have ever tasted! Try the whole grain bread, they toast it I think on a panini press, so its not at all greasy. The bagel chips accompanying it are garlicky delights and are made in house. I was always too full to try the desserts, which look phenomenal. I am from a large city and have lived all over the United States, and this is one of my most favorite coffee shops ever. I highly recommend them!

Ripon Café has the best coffee in town. They also have great breakfast choices! The service is by far the best in town. Nothing like feeling right at home when im enjoying my cup of JOE and breakfast.

My husband & I were in town to visit friends so we were completely unfamiliar with the area. I am not a fan of Starbucks and prefer «mom & pop» establishments. Their coffee is phenomenal! They were no longer serving breakfast but they happily made a bagel sandwich that was absolutely delicious. The mason jars displayed with beautiful flowers add a lovely touch to the homey feel. Such a friendly and accommodating staff. will visit again when we’re in town!!!

I’ve visited this place a few times. The staff never greets me, it makes me feel very unwelcome. They have never been busy when I come in yet I always find myself waiting for 10 mins for my to go order. The first time I went they made my Italian soda incorrectly, which to their credit they did correct the order and apologize. This last visit I ordered a coffee off the specials board called «peppermint patty» I couldn’t taste peppermint or coffee. But then again they don’t like to put descriptions on the menu so maybe it was supposed to be something else entirely. I also got a breakfast wrap it was very bland and unimaginative, you can add yummy things for an additional charge but my total was already $ 9.50 for just a 16oz drink and a basic wrap. I wouldn’t say I had a terrible experience but no where near exceptional. I’d give this place a one but I love the location and most of the décor. I also believe Ripon café has a lot of potential but some things need to change.

Everyone has to try this place out they are professional and delicious. Go there and you will always come back. Everything on the menu is good.

Craving coffee and a quick snack heading down highway 99. I didn’t want to submit to the Seattle Monster if I didn’t have to. Instead I decided to take the extra 3.5 minutes off the freeway and try the Ripon Café after reading the reviews. It was so worth it! Service was awesome and helpful. Coffee was spot on and the Food was great (house man Portuguese beans on Thursday/​Friday — wow). I will be back for sure.

Their cappuccinos are to die for. The barista that was working knew just how much cream to put in it and it tasted so fresh. Sometimes when I come in, some baristas don’t mix it correctly and are inconsistent. As for this barista, he was amazing!
The décor is lovely and the cups they have give the place some personality.
One thing I really like about this place is that they offer vegan options. For example, they have soy milk, and for those who hate soy milk as I do, they offer almond milk.
Overall, I will come again and recommend it to my friends!

The quality of the coffee here is not out of this world, but the staff is super friendly, and they make good drinks! The iced dirty chai here is so so good.
My only complaint is I’ve tried the pumpkin spice latte here and it just tastes like a plain latte. No pumpkin flavor at all.
This is a great place to come and relax and drink some coffee.

Josh was incredibly helpful. He made a great suggestion on what to eat and the food was absolutely delicious! (Try the chicken pesto sandwich) nice environment, great people, great food. Definitely worth a try.

Lori and staff are just great. They have great breakfast burritos and delicious sandwiches, salads as well as hot dogs yum!!!

No complaints here! Haven’t been here in a while (like 3 years) back in the day when it was Jake’s. Pleasantly surprised. Latte was perfectly done, I enjoyed it very much. Berry scone was quite tasty. I had a great time visiting with a dear friend and I would love to return once again.

Well I’ve been going to this spot for quite some time and started going more when it went through its ownership changes. For the most part the costumer service is excellent. I do try to avoid going in on days I know my favorite employees are not working. Although sometimes that’s not possible I still manage to go in everyday and get my coffee. Unfortunately if you’re in a hurry food probably shouldn’t be on your mind as Ripon Café feels like a sit down restaurant.

They are awesome here. I have been going here for several months now. They are very consistent with everything. When you go there, you can expect the same friendly employees, the same tasting drinks, the same atmosphere, etc. It’s like Cheers for coffee lovers. Whenever you walk in, they automatically know who you are and what you order. The only thing missing is them yelling out NORM every time I walk in. Overall, this is a great place to get your coffee fix, without the problem of large lines.

Great coffee, super friendly staff, delicious breakfast & cookies. LOVE this place. Great feel & great service!

Really great food. The atmosphere and service is a major plus as well. I ordered the turkey sandwich which was great! It had pesto as a sauce and was served on sourdough bread. the turkey was warmed so it became a little soggy after a while, I didn’t care for this to much. But, overall was tasty. I also ordered the Iced latte with Carmel pump added. It tasted great and gave me my coffee buzz! Last was the balsamic vinaigrette salad. This came with with cranberries, tomatoes and
looked very pretty but wasnt the best salad I had. Last when using the bathroom I was bummed that they didn’t have a changing table since my 4 month old daughter had gone #2. Overall it’s a great place to eat sit and talk or even read a book… ill be coming back!

Stopped in this morning to try out the Ripon Café… Best decision I made all morning!!!
I ordered the Breakfast Wrap with salsa along with an Iced White Mocha… DELICIOUS!!!
Not only is the food and coffee great the customer service is as well!
Will most definitely be back!!!

So much more than a coffee shop; locally owned Ripon Café offers a clean, stylish, and comfortable place to grab a delicious treat to eat, send a few emails using their free Wi-​Fi and of course provides a mean cup of joe. If you’re in need of a pick me up try their Café Cubano… It’ll do the trick. However my absolute favorite is their breakfast wraps. Full of flavor; bacon, egg, and cheese, and some kind of special sauce… blessed by the gods… I hesitate just for a moment contemplating if I should eat the entire thing and then turn around and stuff my face. Heck you only live once. And to top it off, Lori and her staff are AWESOME! They care about what they produce and it shows.
