Been here a couple of times now, and it’s becoming a favorite. Excellent artisanal espresso / coffee, small rotating baked goods selection, fresh waffles. Calming atmosphere, relaxing playlists - wood tables and plenty of seating (limited outlets). Outdoor seating available too.

Delicious coffee and such a neat space. The back area is a little hidden treasure!

We visited Mills Coffee Shop this morning and unfortunately had a very disappointing experience. The place was nearly empty, yet the customer service we received was dismissive and unwelcoming.
When I asked about their Wildflower Latte, the only response I got was, “It’s good,” with no further explanation. Meanwhile, every customer who came in after us was greeted warmly, given detailed answers, and treated with noticeably more care and attention.
The contrast in treatment was so clear that it felt discriminatory, and it left us very uncomfortable. A coffee shop should be a welcoming space for everyone, but sadly, this was not the case during our visit.

Super loud atmosphere inside, think packed bar level noise, nothing cozy or relaxing about it. Menu is up front in front of cash register so you stand in line no way of reading the menu, and then you get up to the register and they ask you what you want LOL yoh let me read your menu now, the 8 people in line can wait.
Coffee was meh, super lot of creamer/milk. Honestly for $10 I expected hella more.
Didnt know they have food? Nothing on menu said anything about food

Vibes = 10/10, super cozy spot to hang out. Croissant was amazing (def a 5/5) and the coffee was solid too. Service was good, not over the top, but overall a really nice stop if you’re in Sac.

I enjoy the coffee and the baristas who tend to have personalities - or have in years past - has made for some nice banter about music, books, travel, etc.

To the owners, who I've met and who are pleasant, I just ask: Is it not time to invest a little back into the cafe's interior? How about start with the GAWDAWFUL and loud stools? I'm not a large person but maybe reconfigure the tables so that patrons who aren't shaped like a pencil can squeeze between them without putting a butt in someone's face?

And, really, enough of this "minimal" talk: Empty, sterile, art- and joy-deprived.

Hard surfaces but soft faces and happily crafted beverages with interesting baked goods. If you have time, get the waffle. A freshly concacted delicate waffle with wonderful maple syrup. Chocolate chips are a great addition to your morning piece.

Great place to work from a laptop. Good espresso served with courtesy sparkling water. Drink preparation was pretty slow. Blueberry scone, which was recommended, turned out to be dry. I actually ate the top part with the glass sugar and threw the rest away. I probably wouldn't go for baked goods again, but if I had work to do nearby I'd have a coffee.

Enjoyed a fantastic drip coffee here! Leaning on the more acidic side for the roast that I got, but it was well balanced. Great ambiance, nice quiet place to chill or read a book and it wasn’t too crowded.
