Huge, spacious coffee shop with high ceilings and large windows to light up the amazing offerings. We visited on a hopping Sunday. Even with the traffic, our wait was short and our drinks were fabulous. We tried the spring seasonal offerings and that lemon meringue latte may have changed my life - SO good! Picked up a t-shirt, and a strong desire to return to Ukiah for this great coffee!

This is hands-down the best coffee shop in town! They roast their own beans in-house, which you can truly taste in the quality and depth of their brews. I haven’t tried much of the menu yet, but the nitro cold brew is phenomenal—smooth with a rich hazelnut flavor and a clean finish. I especially appreciate that they serve it without ice, which keeps the flavor intact (unlike other places that water it down). The prices are reasonable, especially considering the quality. I also tried the chocolate chip cookie, which was $4—but honestly worth every penny. It was fresh, soft, and generously sized. The shop itself has a welcoming, cozy vibe with plenty of indoor seating—perfect for conversation, studying, or working on a laptop (free Wi-Fi included). It’s also proudly a safe LGBTQ+ space, which makes it even more inviting and inclusive. There’s also some outdoor seating for people-watching, and about seven parking spots in the lot plus street parking right out front, which is super convenient. My only gripe is that it can get a little messy. I wiped down my own table and there was food on the floor. If you’re looking for great coffee, a comfortable atmosphere, and good vibes, this place is a gem. I’ll definitely be back to try more!

I am glad we stopped by on our way passing through town. I love good coffee and this one was a home run. Great pastries and I had the lavender oatmilk latte.

I would absolutely stop here again on my road trip. You can see them roasting their own coffee beans behind a glass wall. The whole place is a little big and intimidating, but it smells wonderful. The staff is friendly and It has clean bathrooms according to my husband. Lots of whole milk, almond milk, oat milk, etc. Really nice latte options. I got the Mayan mocha. Rather than having just a little bit of red pepper or whatever it is. They sprinkle on top. It actually had more of a smoky dark flavor that I thought was really interesting and a nice change of pace. The chocolate chip cookies my kids ordered were delivered hot and gooey. The sandwiches looked very inviting but we weren't in a position to eat. If I had to complain about anything, it's that their parking lot was very small compared to how popular it is!. But they can't really do anything about that. Just a fair warning that it might be busy and you might have to park adjacent or next door and walk through some bushes. 5 stars

Fun coffee shop with tasty treats. Blueberry muffin was delish. Ordered two of their popular coffee, lovers lane and brown sugar vanilla.

Great spot, with a chill vibe. Their specialty copies are really good, I definitely recommend the Lovers Lane latte and the lavender latte. Nice to smell coffee roasting when they do it. And their whole bean coffee or ground coffee offerings are really good as well. I’m glad that Ukiah has something like this as opposed to just the large corporate chain.

So impressed with this coffee shop I can’t believe it’s so far from where I’m from but it’s great on your way up to 101! Super good gluten-free maple cookie as well and the coffee flavors great. One of the barista also designed the T-shirt so make sure you buy one.

Ukiah Black Oak coffee rosters is not only the best coffee shop in town but one of the best ones throughout the 101 route and, I dare to say, the Emerald Triangle. Upscale and community gathering place all at once. I always enjoy their season creations ( they tend to be on the sweeter side). I’ve tried all mochas, all amazing, with my favorite being the Borgia Mocha (there’s something elegant and subtly festive about orange and chocolate). Sometimes I order the espresso shake, which is a perfect afternoon pick me up decadent “I deserve it” treat for the 2hours ride back home in the Bay. Other days I go just a latte so I can taste the high-quality beans. I’ve loved everything I’ve ordered throughout the years. They have 10% off bagged coffee sales on Mondays. Their location is perfect, free parking: coming from the Bay Area is about 2 to 2 1/2 hours into the 101N, which makes it ideal to use restroom and hit the road back singing happy with coffee made to perfection and doubling as energizing incense in the car. Their food is amazing too (turkey pesto sandwich, quinoa salad and jalapeño cheddar scones super yum!)
