30 Best Coffee Shops in Walnut Creek

“I come here 2 times a week. The staff is great!! Milly also knows my kids have a dairy allergy, so he always makes sure the drinks are made properly.

The quality of the macha is unmatched. It is whisked properly for each ordered drink.

The macha donuts are delicious and have a few great flavors.

I also have to give credit to the staff when they are busy and short handed. The staff has always kept their cool and balance taking orders and making them.“

“Such a cute little spot! I loved the cozy atmosphere, all of the greenery, and the outdoor seating. The staff were incredibly warm and friendly, while also being quick, which made the experience even better. The coffee was delicious, and while I didn't try any food this time, the homemade pastries looked amazing!“

“Best espresso and coffee ☕️ in town!“

“Prologue is an absolute treasure tucked inside the Walnut Creek Public Library, making it the perfect spot for book lovers and coffee enthusiasts alike. Imagine checking out a book and then cozying up with a delicious cup of coffee and a fresh pastry—it doesn’t get better than this! The highlight of my visit is their Eggspresso. It’s a creamy, velvety masterpiece that pairs the boldness of espresso with an indulgent, smooth texture. A must-try for anyone looking for a unique coffee experience. The staff are incredibly friendly, and the welcoming presence of the owner adds such a personal touch and extra layer of hospitality to the space which is rare to find. Whether you’re stopping by for a quick pick-me-up or planning to spend the afternoon reading, Prologue is the perfect place to unwind. Highly recommended!“

“If you enjoy good chocolate, this has to be your first stop! Belgium chocolate, a great selection , nice employees and owner. Grab a coffee and shortbread, or better yet, an espresso and chocolate (Louise and marron are favs) to enjoy at the bistro tables in front of the shop in cute downtown Walnut Creek. Makes the best gifts for family and business.“

“I’ve been going there for a month only bcs I recently discovered this place. It’s pricy and yet it is the best spot in the area for the quality of espresso drinks I love the most and originality of the drinks. Wow I never thought I would like espresso with blueberry preserves on ice. And I do now.“

“Good Sunday morning place“

“Delicious and fresh. Excellent vegetarian food. Great takeout service and online ordering.“

“personal touches small business love💜🧡❤🙏“

“Great vibe, wonderful service and Delicious products!“

“Here on a Sunday afternoon. They had the place decorated for 4th of July and had free bubbles and candy.

Great friendly service and even helped me when I forgot to order non dairy which would have been bad later on.

I got the black sugar assam 50% sweet(less syrup) and it was great. I also swapped out the boba for crystal boba.“

“It’s always a lovely time at Tellus coffee! The creative and delicious food and drinks, warm and inviting ambiance (that plant wall just makes me happy) and the super-kind and efficient baristas are the best! Thanks to owner Janae for all her hard work making Tellus a Walnut Creek fave!“

“We visited Ananas in downtown Walnut Creek today and had a good experience. They have sandwiches, pastries, and drinks . We enjoyed the traditional Turkish coffee. It was expensive $8 and took long time to get prepared, they were busy and seems short handed.The owner kindly brought us baklava, which was such a nice touch, place feels warm, welcoming, and authentic. Seems the prices are too high therefore might not go back .“

“there is a daily question on the wall board and the fun is composing answers and reading what others have written…“

“Great service, all around great Coffee , will be coming back , Thanks for everything.“

“Nice lady and she make best late ever.“

“They make a very good mocha.

It's IMPORTANT you don't miss experiencing one of their PECAN CHEWY bars. How they take 10 ingredients and make them into something this good, that tastes like a European pastry is mind blowing. It tastes also very clean. This is excellent with all kinds of coffee. Lattes, mochas, black, all types of coffees go deliciously well with PECAN CHEWYs.

I have been hospitalized for 6 weeks. And Mocha Mocha has been one of my highlights.

Mocha Mocha is a blessing at John Muir Hospital - Walnut Creek. Their coffee being available from Morning to Evening is huge and I hope as many people buy coffee, as they talk about how grateful they are to have MOCHA MOCHA (at 10:30 in the evening or at 5:00 in the morning) when they are tired here in the hospital before beginning their shift.

I wish MOCHA MOCHA could make deliveries to patients trapped in their rooms because they cannot move and family members are not coming in time for morning coffee. Because the coffee on the floors is terrible instant coffee.“

“Love Philz coffee. The best👍“

“Small store on the street level of a condo building. There are a dozen or so tables inside plus four tables and eight chairs on the patio. Several regulars inside with laptops. The place stays active with pedestrian traffic and pick-up orders. They have an extra air cooler in the dining area to ward off the summer’s heat - it was a little too cold for me so I sat on the patio in the afternoon shade, which I’m sure is bright and warm in the morning.

Dean, the cashier and barista, was very welcoming and friendly - a perfect example of service with a smile. I received my latte in about one minute. The display case was clean, organized and attractive.

Only two or three parking spots in front, and be mindful, the parking warden is quick to write a ticket if your time is expired, and apparently if you park too far from the curb, as a BMW owner was soon to find out. (18-inches people, remember that!)“

“My favorite Starbucks in the area!! This is such an easy, quick, and accessible location. There’s always people here, and I used to think it was a con when they went to only outdoor seating, but I’ve ended up quite liking it, even if I’m doing work. The staff here are all friendly and attentive and it just makes my day whether I’m coming here in the morning or afternoon.“

“This Starbucks location is always the cleanest, and I truly love coming here.
The atmosphere is welcoming and well maintained.
I’m a regular customer, and one of the biggest reasons I keep coming back is Nina. She is incredibly kind, always welcoming, and genuinely makes my day better every time I come in. Her positive attitude and great service make this place even more special.
Keep going!“

“10/10 pastries, perfectly made! I bought a Tarte au Citron, a honey lavender latte, and a seasonal kouign amann. The employees were very kind and gave great recommendations! I’m definitely coming back.“

“I just want to thank “Brianna” the starbucks Barista who works at the Safeway’s branch. She has is professional, friendly and fast. In fact, I had the best “Frappuccino Moca” ever I had from Starbucks and Brianna can make a very delicious and tasty Frappuccino. So I came back the second time and saw her again and asked her to make another one for me. She is great and also so welcoming with very beautiful smile. Thank you for your service Brianna.“

“I have been meaning to write this review for weeks! Not sure how to spell the young ladies name but Maya is such a joy every time I walk in the café. She goes above and beyond every single time, she actively asked those around her if they know how to make what was ordered and will have them shadow her if needed. She is genuinely taking the time to connect with the guest and give great recommendations and is making sure the team around her feels supported and is knowledgeable. As someone who also works in the plaza and worked in customer service for about 10 years you all truly have a gem in this place! I would give her more than 5 stars if I could.“

“Thanks to my sister in Chicago I was giving a gift card to Starbucks. This was my first time in my life going and I was geeked. Due to social distancing I couldn't eat there but found a nice park. I had a turkey breakfast sandwich, danish and berry drink. Delicious“

“I had a wonderful first experience here. I ordered a large chai latte with oat milk, light ice, and one packet of stevia. It was made perfectly and tasted so smooth and flavorful.
The area was very clean, and on the left side there was a wine and beer bar with the football game playing in the center which gave it a really nice vibe.
The whole atmosphere felt welcoming and inviting. Brian took my order and was friendly, helpful, and attentive! I’m really looking forward to coming back.
Thank you!“

“Oh my goodness, so much gratitude for this Starbucks! Always kind, super fast, positive and clean. I just spent 3 days at an airport for the computer wipeout in Atlanta and horrible service and it was so refreshing to come back to kindness and the BEST tasting coffee! Salina went the extra mile once again with my sticker when I said I had lost my voice. Thank you! ❤️“

“Had a great experience at the Starbucks on Tice Valley. I was sitting outside and the guy brought my food out to me. Unexpected“

“Best employees! Great place to go with your dog, they have pupachinos! 🐾🐾“

“Love the staff, love my tea, sure is bright with all the Christmas attire. 🎄🎄🎄“
