The Best Tea, Coffee & Cafes in Rancho Cordova

Authentic Brazilian specialties with multicultural influence pepper the menu of Mimo Bake Studio, where you'll find pure acai made without additives, crispy tapioca flour flatbread sandwiches, and savory appetizers to compliment an extensive list of delicious drinks.

Take your pick from Brazilian lemonade made with sweetened condensed milk, fresh blended smoothies, and roasty iced coffees as you admire the small cafe's decor. Every sip and bite here is delicious.

Traveler's Note: Our staff recommends the "Pāo de Queijo" (savory cheese balls with a chewy, mochi-like texture) and the "Mocha Pistachio," whipped up with fresh, house-made pistachio cream.

Looking for drinks with a tropical twist? 4ESTEA is a standout for casual hangouts, bringing fresh Filipino flavors to Rancho Cordova with a tasty lineup of handcrafted beverages and snacks. Guests can enjoy boba, matcha, fruit teas, and iced coffees. We personally recommend the Mango Sago!

Pair your drink with Filipino-inspired bites like fried quail eggs, fluffy rice bowls, or crispy pork lumpia. This is a must-try stop for anyone who loves cultural flavors and Instagram-worthy sips.

Traveler's Note: Our staff has been known to order multiple drinks at a time so we can taste more flavors. Everything is really that good!

For coffee lovers who appreciate high quality roasts, Black Coffee Roastery is a must-stop. This Black-owned roastery and espresso bar is located on the first floor of Frequency Coworking & Events Space, but any visitor can stop in for a cuppa.

With a convenient location off Zinfandel, it's easy to run in and and procure smooth, small-batch espresso and specialty drinks. You can also pick up a bag of fresh roasted coffee beans sourced from around the globe while you're at it.

Traveler's Note: This is not a traditional cafe and there isn't any seating, but it's a great pit stop for day trips.

If you love chewy mochi, unique Korean flavors, or flavorful milk teas, Mochinut is a triple threat you just can't beat. Their tender mochi donuts and crunchy Korean corn dogs make flavorful companions to their line of tasty drinks, freshly bottled to order. Classic sips include purple ube tea and rich Thai tea. Try their "tornado" drinks for a creamy twist.

Traveler's Note: Donut flavors are plentiful and change monthly. Nearly everything is made fresh to order, so pack some patience and enjoy a relaxed pace as you wait for your teas and meal.

Popular 85°C Bakery brings premium pastries and café favorites to Rancho Cordova, offering everything from specialty coffee drinks and refreshing boba teas to fresh-baked breads and delicious cakes. There's something delicious for every tastebud and it's the perfect place to grab breakfast bites, a mid-day treat, or a shareable dessert for later.

Bold Vietnamese coffee and sea salt lattes perfectly compliment the bakery's taro buns and egg tarts. Soft strawberry and mango sponge cakes are great for picnics.

Traveler's Note: If you like your coffee strong, Vietnamese Coffee is the way to go - but sip it slowly! We also love the iced Red Grapefruit Green Tea for a refreshing vibe.

When you’re craving boba, Asian-owned 8TEAS Bubble Tea delivers with an incredible variety of milk teas, herbal teas, blended drinks, and creative toppings. Explore familiar add-ins like classic brown sugar or branch out with mango jelly stars, and don’t forget to grab a box of colorful macarons to sweeten your day.

Traveler's Note: Our staff recommends the subtly-sweet iced Earl Grey milk tea and Thai tea!
