Ok so I am pretty new to the Thousand Oaks area and have been on a hunt to find a great coffee shop. I’ve made a list and have tried a good amount of local shops but to be honest haven’t been too impressed compared to trying coffee in the deep of LA. I was craving a smooth expresso for some reason this Saturday night and decided to continue my search and figured I’d give California Coffee a try. It was a little hard to find because it’s tucked away in a cute little alley next to brewery’s and beautiful lights. I tried my classic iced vanilla latte and my barista who I didn’t get his name (had a pretty impressive beard) asked me how I liked my coffee which I have never been asked before. This coffee was elite, super smooth, and velvety. I LOVED IT. I will definitely be coming back and thank you to the kind bearded barista that made me such a great latte. Definitely come here if you are a coffee snob like me and looking for amazing expresso, a cute atmosphere, and superior service. :)

My wife and I love going to CCR! Being new to the area we wanted to find a great roaster and they are it. Great coffee and people. Definitely recommend.

Lunch was pretty good here, but this is the place for coffee connoisseurs to get the best beans!! Super fresh & amazing choices in whole beans.

The only place in Moorpark where you can get actually good espresso! (Sorry Carrara's).I'm someone who is really particular about coffee and find most coffee shops to make pretty mediocre coffee, but this place really knows what they are doing. I'd highly recommend trying the cortado.

Best latte I've had, smooth, creamy and strong without any bitterness. I get sugar free vanilla latte with almond or coconut milk. I love it and I want one now it better to support this nice family business as well.

I was in the area passing through for a week and found this little gem in the strangest of locations. Glad I did. Amazing people and incredible coffee. Was really impressed with their roast and coffee. If you’re into top level coffee roasting and you like quality coffee then this is your spot if you’re in the area.
If I was rating The California Coffee Republic based solely on the coffee and food alone, I would give it a strong 4 out of 5 stars. Rating only on the service, management and organization, I would give only a 1 out of 5, being very generous. The California Coffee Republic has many young workers, no observable management or organization at all. My best friend and I spend one chosen afternoon a week to meet for a relaxing, adult moment of coffee and conversation. We did not find this at The California Coffee Republic. What we did find was a great amount of choas and disorganization. A young child, around the age of 5 or 6 was running in and out of the back of the coffee shop amongst the food cooking and preparation. At 1pm when we arrived, there were no pastries or scones left for the rest of the day, even though they did not close for many hours to come. After ordering, my cell number was taken so I could be texted when the food was ready. When I received the text, I went inside and stood waiting. I stood there for approximately 10 minutes and finally asked the young man making the coffees where I pick up my food. He told me to wait and someone would bring it out. I stood there another 5 minutes waiting and becoming increasingly irritated. Another worker came in from the outside, and I asked her where I get my food. She also told me to wait where I was. While I was standing there I heard another customer, who has also been standing there awhile ask where they get their food. In anger I finally walked outside and my friend went inside to wait. She also waited almost 15 minutes for our food. Not ok. While my friend was standing in there waiting, after I had already given up, California Coffee Republic called my phone with a reminder that the food was ready This entire experience is very unfortunate because the coffees were really good and the pizza was delicious.

this place is epic! across from a brewery, next door to a wine bar and inside a great little restaurant. nationally acclaimed award winning coffee roasted and served here. Top 10 winner of best espresso in the country. Hard to believe this place is in Moorpark. Nerds make everything better, including your coffee. go check this place out and make sure you thank Will the owner for his passion for brewing the best coffee out there!! One of the few places that serves nitro cold brew.

Cute local coffee spot in a hidden area! The staff is very nice and friendly. The menu is not extensive but it is good enough for anyone to find something. There is a ton of seating outside and parking is easy to fine. Definitely returning the next time I'm in the area.

Good coffee and a delicious scone. I’m glad restaurant week got me to try them. Bought some beans to grind at home and will come back to them, since I like supporting local businesses as opposed to national chains.

Best coffee ever! If you want flavorful coffee, get CCR! They also have the best scones on the planet! No joke!!
