The fresh from the oven focaccia was particularly good. Nice selection of plant based pastries and a number of gluten free options too.
Fabulous plant-based breakfast spot. Owners are courteous and gracious and all hands on. Freshly made pumpkin bread/muffin was absolutely delicious and moist and a huge portion that suited two for just $8. Run, don’t walk, to this great spot.
The food and drinks taste good, but I paid a whopping $12 for an iced matcha and $6 for a scone. They do not have any menus (at least, none that I could see) so I was unaware of the price ahead of time. Perhaps this is deliberate on their part, because I would not have ordered it at that price if I’d known!
The servers were friendly enough, though the woman who took my order seemed a little frazzled and frustrated by something (maybe just a hard day? It was not busy when I was there). My drink took a long time to be made, and while waiting I discovered that they’ve permanently CLOSED their bathroom to the public.
Overall, I found the environment a little hostile and the order way too expensive. Everything was delicious, but I don’t know if I’ll be returning here when there are other options nearby.

Best coffee I have had in all of Northern California. Australian coffee snob approved.
The avo on toast and daily special focaccias were also the some of the best I have had anywhere in the USA.
Staff are super friendly and welcoming.

Amazing food, but kinda slow service! Hard to do a quick stop there so I don’t go as often as I’d like!!

Our first time and we are definitely coming back. The vegan/gluten free scone was out of this world! Crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy inside. Gotta try it! And their vegan milk is perfect in a latte.

Such a great spot! The atmosphere is soft and inviting, the owner Kim took our order and gave my husband and I great coffee suggestions. I myself am not a coffee person but the drink he ordered (brown sugar cinnamon latte) was so yummy and well made! I’ll definitely be coming back here for coffee. I also had the avocado toast which was fresh and tasty. Some of the reviews note that it’s a little pricey here, which I won’t argue against, but everything was also homemade and not pulled from a frozen bag or plastic bottle (including all syrups which are made in house), so I don’t mind the price! It kind of sucks because most of the foot traffic goes across the parking lot to Aroma Roasters, but The Branch Line will be where I head from now on for coffee! my only regret was not getting a muffin.

What a cool place! We had toast with vegan cream cheese, avocado, and greens and it was absolutely delicious with a beautiful presentation. They had vegan/gf baked goods, vegan cheeses among other little snacks for sale and beautiful local flowers. I would highly recommend hitting up this spot if you are in the area! Yum!

I enjoyed the avocado gluten-free toast immensely. So delicious! They had a delightful gluten-free scone as well. It was tasty. Thank you for your impeccable service. Many blessings ✨

Expensive ($10 for a very small salad). No bathroom. Still no menu posted which is really, really frustrating. Most of the time you have to pay for parking. You have to sit outside and it was really cold when we went. The salads weren't labeled so you had to ask them. They missed my son's hot chocolate order and then said it was our fault because he was saying that he wasn't sure while ordering. He clearly ordered hot chocolate but whatever.
They were impatient while my son was ordering. He's little and he's practicing speaking to servers. I was disappointed in how they interacted with him. He wasn't taking that long and it's not like he could decide in advance because, again, no posted menus and most items aren't labelled.
I've eaten here a few times. Once the soft pretzels were way too salty for me to eat. Once I loved a salad but when I came back and ordered it again it wasn't as good.
Glad they're vegan. Wish they had more affordable options, better signage, and better parking. Wish they were more patient. They used to have a bathroom that you could use. The bathroom is still there but they won't let you use it anymore. Not sure why. They told us to go to other places to go to the bathroom.

I like what they are trying to do here with a healthier plant based menu but being rude to customers is not going to work. We stopped going here shortly after it opened. Not surprised the pharmacy closed. People would leave reviews about the rudeness of the owner but nothing ever changed.
You can taste and feel the love in the food and drinks. Special attention was given to the presentation of our order and everything was a work of art. This is the opposite experience of in and out Starbucks - it takes time to put the love in the drinks and food but it is so worth it! This place feels like you’re visiting a coffee shop in a small European village. The owner and the barista are so warm and welcoming. I wish I took pics of the drinks and food but we were hitting the road and I totally forgot. Please support this 100% vegan small local business.
One of the best cortados I've had in a long time! It was with oat milk too which I usually don't like as much but in this case the flavor was perfect.
The strawberry walnut scone was epic as well. Not dry at all and full of flavor.
All of this combined with the super friendly small town coffee shop feel in a great location makes this a strong 5 stars for me.
