Barrelista Coffee House - Martinez, California

Bryan T.

Decently cute Portlandish coffee shop, with actually good coffee, mid food, marred by a few issues with service and the vibe.

First, no greeting or kindness. After ordering, I realized that none of the tables were being cleared or cleaned. Dirty tables kill the vibe, so I picked a less convenient spot to sit. There was no WiFi too, but no biggie. Then, a homeless dude who was chilling inside for a while grabs the largest 6 person table and starts rambling threats. I appreciate the staff showing kindness in the rain, but they don’t need to let someone cause a disturbance and occupy your cafe’s largest table. (To top it off, the homeless guy later steals from the shop.)

When leaving, there’s no thank you, come back, or appreciation. Also, please put prices on the food menu?!

It was quick, cute, cozy. And they even filled up my reusable water bottle. Also there was a group of men hanging out inside having coffee, one of them had a dog. It was adorable 😍. Its a whole vibe to go have coffee on a Saturday morning with your friends I ordered a chai latte with almond milk and honey, and a breakfast panini it was the bacon one yumm. Spent somewhere around 20$

I got the macadamia cinnamon latte with an almond croissant. Both were equally delicious and the service was superb! Young lady at the front was super friendly and conscious of the temperature of my latte (since I believe macadamia nut milk runs a bit cold even after being warmed up). Throughly enjoyed my visit here, the vibe and the tasty treats! Will be coming back

This place is amazing! I thought maybe it was a new place if I don’t live in Martinez but they have been there for 10 years. The atmosphere is rustic and cool all the same time it has a full bar and wonderful coffee, tea and on tap Kombucha!! we went for the on tap, kombucha, watermelon, and elderberry🩷❤️Beyond yummy! I would give 20 ⭐️
They have a walk up window as well. Oh yes they have some food items as well. Outside seating right on Main St. with gas stove options!

Want the real deal? There is no other one place that will pour you the greatest espresso or rye whisky you’ve ever had under one roof. Staff here is the bee’s knees always make the best recommendations and best drinks not even if exaggerating

I would give this place more than 5 stars if I could. The staff were really nice and the atmosphere is so cozy! The msyic was really relaxing and chill. They have lots of board games open to anyone who wants to use them which is super fun, and so many choices for plant based milks! I got a mocha with soy milk and oh my god it's the best coffee I've ever had. The food was also all so yummy and lots healthy options that taste great and are very filling 😀 I am definitely coming back here as soon as possible becuase it was just all around a wonderful experience and absolutely worth the money! I spent $16 on a coffee and 2 toasts.

So I have to be honest and say that I did not purchase anything here. My girlfriend needed a coffee, so we stopped in. I sat and waited for her. It was a pretty busy place. There were about 6 people waiting in line. I thought the decor was nice. The space was inviting and comfortable. It took a while to get the coffee, but she said it was good. I will take her word for it.

Probably the best avocado toast I've ever had! All made in house too! And the coffee is really smooth for just a regular black coffee. Impressive!
