Oh. My. Goodness. So good! We stopped here on a road trip and it was amazing!! The staff was very welcoming and knowledgeable. The food was AMAZING!! I cant say it enough. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND the breakfast sandwich! The coffee was also very good. We bought some of the English muffins they make in house on our way out and I already know I need to find out how to get more from home (we sadly live 3hrs away).

Fell in love inside immediately. Love the room and seating options inside. Table and chairs are everywhere. The best part to me were the four oversized leather chairs with great western pattern. These are wondrously comfortable for conversation and reading. there are a few seats outside with shade provided.There are a good number of drink offerings. As a tea totaler, I appreciated the iced green teal; tasty and chill. The peanut butter cookie is just one of many offerings. Next time, Im going to try the pizza. Yes, you read that correctly. All the locations have more than a lovely pastry display which is great!Parking is around the streets nearby or the parking lot right next to the shop. Wholeheartedly recommend this location for a good selection of food and drink as well as plenty of room for relaxing.

I got a cold brew, and it was delicious. The man who took my order was friendly and enthusiastic. Its a cute little area in a back alley by a parking lot. The parking lot is a bit of a hassle, so its best to park a few blocks away and walk. All of thats totally worth it, though, because its a really nice place.

Cool atmosphere and friendly. However latte was “okay” and wasn’t a fan of espresso flavor notes. I also ordered a grilled cheese and received a warmed piece of bread with a melted cheese slice and a couple pieces of spinach (felt like I was eating cheap cheesy bread). Very subpar for a $9 sandwich.Will update if I return as I think it’s not fair to try a place only once.

I was having a great time here until my sandwich arrived and I discovered that I had paid $11 for one of the single smallest sandwiches I have ever seen. The whole place and it’s people seem great, I do recommend them, BUT few sins are as irredeemable in my book as a tiny sandwich. BEWARE.To their credit the three bites of sandwich were delicious.

Amazing atmosphere and staff !

One of my favorite places in the city, very comfortable and friendly people!

Great atmosphere. Friendliest staff. Variety of selections. Prices are reasonable. Menu selections is just one of the attractions. Coffee is always on point!!!

What a great coffee shop, with some food and pastry items. Staff was excellent. Been 30 years since I have been to Sacramento, have to come back sooner to get another cup of coffee.

Fantastic coffee shop, bakery and cafe with a name that fits their vibe. A great selection of coffee from around the world, choices of teas, lattes and assorted cafe drinks. This eclectic little gem is hidden away on a side street, but well worth the search. The atmosphere and selection of food and drinks makes this a welcome oasis from the bustle of downtown, a great study spot or a perfect place for a quiet date. I highly recommend checking out Old Soul.

Excellent breakfast, latte, and service.

Trendy, friendly, great place to chill

This place is so cute and their coffees and teas are delicious!! A nice place for people of all aesthetics to hang out 🤍

Cool place. Fresh made sandwiches, pastries and good drinks. Had Cuban ham sandwich and small salad.

Updated review for Christmas 2019. Their food has taken a huge step up in quality. The coffee is outta site. Thanks for all that you do!!!Ordered a cappuccino and omelette. The omelette and potatoes were overly salted and peppered. Would be better to lightly season and let the customer add more if necessary. Tasted not good and eyes are watering. The cappuccino was not bad but it had a sour and overly roasty flavor, not smooth. I think some people maybe big coffee connoisseurs probably like that style but I was not a big fan of it lol. Was more like a strong espresso flavor like you’d find in a cortado or macchiato. Also the setting is kind of ramshackle, pig pen setting with tables smattered around, very bright fluorescent lighting, and uncomfortable seats. Of course it’s more interesting than a Starbucks, especially with the wider menu selections. Also the exterior is appropriately old soul worthy.

Great place, wonderful options for a cafe. Being a 3rd wave roaster I was hoping for better coffee. The coffee was fair, but lacked character... bland at best, but not bad, just lifeless. No pour over option, just drip. Great hang out spot though. Theyve put a lot of time and thought into the place.

This place is kinda hide, went here while visiting some friends for Christmas. Has a really cool/nice vibe... got the “standard” under the breakfast menu (can’t remember the name, not sure), it has avocado, egg, bacon in a English muffin (but it’s not a regular one, my friend told me that they make them in-house and the bread too, not sure if that’s true or she is messing with me) really good; the sandwich is kinda small (I easily would have had two) but really good. Completely recommended. She ordered a grilled cheese sandwich which was also good! (Not as good as mine tho)

I get three jars of beans here every week and I can’t attribute a source that adds to our team’s energy more so than Old Soul Coffee. If you still drink Starbucks or Peet’s and think you’re drinking a great cup of coffee then boy do I have good news for you. Old Soul’s speciality selection of coffee is second to NONE in Sacramento and even holds its own against coffeeshops like Temple… All their locations are staffed with friendly people and they carry excellent flavors of caffeine juice and artisan food. If you don’t check them out today, you’re just saving more for me tomorrow!!

I got a coffee and sat outside. It was so nice! I love the outdoor setup- a good use of the alleyway and very European!

Lovely and cosy place,we ordered mocha and cappuccino and both were perfectly done...wished they had more dessert options though.

Great vibe and local business. The alley is a pretty kool location.

Great coffee, cool location, wonderful customer service

Yum coffee and teas. Small plates to go along with it. This place is a hidden gem. Plenty of space to study, have meetings, kid friendly, read etc. Loved the history and the ambience.

Great staff and excellent coffee and coffee drinking atmosphere. Really easy going and laid back place to hang out and enjoy a nice brew.

Old soul never disappoints! Coffee is amazing, the food is really good and the people are awesome.

Great urban industrial vibe with excellent drinks. Had a dirty chai, and it had just the right amount of spice. Nice spot to sit and chill, with a good mix of tables and comfy chairs.

I ordered a latte and a concentrated Americano equal parts coffee & water. I got a very milky latte and an Americano with about 12 oz. of water. I then stood in a slow line again to order (and pay for) additional shots for each drink in order to make them palatable.Food wise, I ordered a vegetarian sandwich. The bread was very soft and tasty. The sandwich itself was just okay. Minimal standard ingredients: sprouts, onion, lettuce, sauce. Not very hearty in comparison to other vegetarian sandwiches Ive had.When ordering, I thought about getting a bag to go but they are all in excess of $20 per bag. Not quite ready for that cost increase.

The industrial feel of the place is nice. The coffee is nice. The employees are EH. I feel like they should bring the coffee to you like other small-chains do and heat up the pastries... otherwise they should have Starbucks pricing cause it aint cheap girl.

Very nice and friendly coffee shop! Best customer service out of all the coffee shops I’ve been to. Nice to see people take pride in their work.

Really nice atmosphere. The breakfast sandwich was really good and am looking forward to trying the rest of the menu. Also the coffee is great.

Finishing up Christmas shopping and getting a bite to eat. The breakfast sandwiches & BLT are sooo good!The place is comfortable, the staff very nice & helpful . If you havent checked this place out - you should!

Nice atmosphere it had a chill vibe the food was good ...

The atmosphere was very relaxing and the food was very good

Friendly staff, awesome atmosphere and space, tasty food and coffee. Ill be back!

Nice place and atmosphere. Its a pity you cant stay inside anymore because of covid restrictions.

Doing good coffee in a great old building!

Not sure if it’s because I’m not from here or what but the food wasn’t good at all I’m a huge ox tail eater and I ordered oxtails from this place and they were the best at all don’t want to bash this place because the set up looks nice and everyone had mask on but as far as taste I was extremely disappointed

Lovely local coffee roaster, with several locations. This one does all the roasting and baking. Friendly staff and plenty of wall outlets.

A little pricey for a cup a joe, but rad location and a real chill vibe inside and out.

Awesome place for breakfast and coffee. My go-to spot.

There sandwiches are just out right not good. At all. So bland tasted like i was eating a salt sandwich with a hint of garlic. A bag of chips are tastier than this place. Not to mention the very gloomy customer service i received. If you dont like working at a coffee shop where you barely do anything at all... dont think youre going to last anywhere else.

I came here with my girlfriend to get some homework done and have a quick bite to eat and I was so pleased. The atmosphere is both classic and rustic while still maintaining a modern feel. There were plenty of couches and tables to sit at, and an overall very fun ambiance.Now lets talk about the food... 10/10! I ended up getting the TBS (Turkey Bacon Swiss) sandwich which is prepared on fresh ciabatta bread they make daily, and I am not exaggerating when I say it was the best ciabatta bread I have had in many years. I will definitely be making this a regular stop during the week and look forward to trying the other artisan crafted sandwiches they offer.I also must compliment the staff, they were all extremely helpful and courteous. I cany wait to come back!

Great iced coffee. Very friendly staff. Very clean establishment. All around great experience

Also have great coffee and brunch options. Tables are available indoors (Covid style). Also some tables available outside.

Great place and coffee. I told them to surprise me and I sure was surprise with great flavor..

First time here, and fairly easy to find considering the entrance faces an alley. Service was friends and there was plenty of seating for a Saturday morning. Had a macchiato that took less than 3min to get and a bacon chive scone. Scone was nice and would have tasted better warmed. Not sure if that was an option and I didn’t ask. Relaxing, comfortable vibe!

Dude with mustache and flag mask consistently has it off. Irresponsible.

Simply said, The BLT is to die for

Forget Starbucks! This is how its supposed to be made.

Very good coffee and friendly knowledgeable skilled staff!

Love the standard Mocha they serve here. Awesome looking place and really nice staff.

Beer, combucha, lemonade, coffee, sandwiches, pizza. This place has it all. Very cozy and no-rush place. And the Ruhstaller Tripel Belgian Ale - 9.5% is so good. Strong, but also sweet with a tinge of sour.

Great coffee, great food, nice atmosphere and super friendly staff.

Delicious sandwiches and coffee. Friendly and fast service!!

Two thumbs up for this place. i will be back with my relatives. this place has a good feel to it. they have so many great reviews for a reason.

Good coffee and good atmosphere. Old Soul has a couple of locations but this location on L street is the original location. I love picking up roasted coffee beans from this place and it is definitely worth the price for the quality. They also service high quality pastries, sandwiches and pizzas. Its also connected to the Big Stump Brewing Company if you want to get your beer fix after that coffee fix!

Some of the best coffee in town, really love the side alley vibes!

Fantastic atmosphere, helpful batistas, great food and coffee. =)

This location is one of my favorites. The service here is better than most. Prices that wont break you. Food is like a restaurant in Jacksonville I liked.

Came here for dinner today and Im glad we did.The food here was amazing! Everything was full of flavor.I ordered the vegetarian plate, it came with falafels, hummus, fried eggplant, fried cauliflower, salad and some sort of leaf wrap stuffed with sticky rice. Every single item on my plate was so good the flavors were amazing!The inside of the restaurant was really nice. We decided to sit outside, they had heaters out which was nice because it was a bit chilly. Overall a great experience.

Cool look. Fresh and excellent tasting bakery goods. So fresh so tasty. I cant wait to try all of the baked goods. And the staff is extremely friendly. I ed would give more than 5 stars and Im not usually this pleased but its top notch

Thought this location might have better seating and be quicker than the Weatherstone but, I WAS WRONG. Only slower and the staff was even less friendly. Really a shame considering they have good coffee. DO NOT come here unless you plan on wait over 5 minutes for a simple latte. The food takes even longer. With so many great coffee shops in Sacramento this place really needs to pick up the pace.

True gem! Gotta check it out

Some good coffee and good food.

Really friendly and decent service.

2 stars which was originally 3 stars and should really be 1 star in my opinion because somehow your business got my review removed from Yelp twice because you didnt like it or you disagree with it or you dont want to hear it. Yelp is infamous for this sort of thing which makes me question your other reviews. I have never had a business do this and think it is very unprofessional.I am leaving a similar review here because it is perfectly valid, and it is absolutely true that you have very little in the way of vegan options, and I am a plant based eater as is the majority of my family as well as many friends and we would have loved to stay and eat more at your bakery/restaurant. Your place looks like it would be very conscious when you come in and has a great vibe but has little in the way of conscious (plant based) food options. I do wish your place would offer more Vegan options and feature these healthy choices on your menu board instead of the animal meat and other sandwiches and breakfast items that are harming the planet and ultimately your patrons who may or may not care about this at all.I was at your place with my mom, sister and our kids last week, all of whom are either vegan or vegetarian and while the coffee was good and the vegan cookie rocked, the rest of the menu was mostly inedible for the adults. Two of our kids still eat eggs and one kid out of 3 eats cheese, but still there was not enough choices for us to stay and have lunch so we left and went to Crepeville which had a bit more to choose from in the way of food options.As I have said, I am happy to change my review when you guys make some menu changes or respond in a way that you have actually heard the feedback and give a damn. Follow Your Heart Cheese has amazing options for plant based cheese, and there are so many great vegan burgers and meat options and Follow Your Heart even has an amazing egg alternative. Please consider adding better options for vegans so we can come back and hang out.Instead of asking Yelp to remove my honest review why dont you just respond to it like most businesses and act like you care what patrons or in my case a new visitor thinks?!

Ive never been to Sacramento but tried many places and this was one of my favorites. Cool vibe. The people that worked there were super friendly. The food was great and came out quick. Really nice experience.

Love their coffee ! It was so good! They truly are one of the best! They had a great environment to work on school or even business cant wait till I come back.

Nice place, surprisingly quiet, with good coffee. The staff was excellent.

I really enjoyed my experience at Old Soul. The coffee is high quality and the staff knows how to heat and foam milk correctly. What I really like about Old Soul are the quiche. I havent ever had a better quiche. The custard is delicate and light. The flavors are lovely. Slices are generous and paired with a green salad. Also, they always have a vegetarian quiche selection.The shop is located behind another store in a sorta alley way. Therefore, the first time stopping in for a visit may be a little confusing. Dont give up because of that. Old Soul is worth hunting down.

The food is always delicious and the in staff servers are always so sweet, but the catering isnt too great... Ive remembered ordering from them through catering several times and it always arrives late or the catering line replies after a few hours of submitting a catering request. I suggest working on this, as the food is so delicious.

I ordered a soy latte (which had awesome coffee art in the foam) and they made me a custom vegan breakfast sandwich. When I drank the latte I accidentally said F*@& thats good out loud... I was by myself. The sandwich was scrumptious. Atmosphere was chill af.

Best coffee shop in Sacramento! With multiple options of coffee beans. The food was delicious and the service was great! If you’re in Sacramento you need to stop by

Live performance was good. Great services. Atmosphere was good. Great location. Coffee was tasty.

Would highly recommend! They were fantastic to work with for a catering job. They arrived early, set everything up and everyone really enjoyed the food. They are very responsive as well and reliable. I will definitely be using them again!

It is our favorite spot to go when staying at Sacramento. Great music and atmosphere. I love the built it yourself omelet for brunch. Nice lighting from many large windows. Energetic and diverse customers.

I grew up in Sacramento, so live when I am able to come back and find all these new-to-me places that have popped up.First, I think the motto should be, If you can find us, you can join us because it took me a bit to find it. Of course, I was not looking for a huge AF mural painted on the side of the building pointing towards the entrance.Once I found it, I was smitten from the outset. The atmosphere felt local, young, diverse, and smelled of coffee and gentrification. Of course, I would rent a table if I lived in the area . . . cause the vibe was awesome.I just had a latte and worked a bit before heading back to SF, but the coffee was good and the wifi was strong. The service was good with an appropriate amount of judgment about why this old dad-dude was in the cool kids lair.If you are in the area, you should stop on by . . . if you can find it :-)

I always like to order a cappuccino in a place Ive never been, just to see how they can handle their coffee. Wonderful drink. Perfect balance or bitters and sweet. Creamy drink without too much milk or too much foam. I think Ive found my new coffee place.

The staff was sociable and attentive. Bring your appetite because portions are filling. Menu is like a place in San Francisco I loved.

I went to this place just 22 DEC 17 and was ecstatic to taste that at least somewhere, people dont require burnt charcoal to make coffee like Starbucks. They must be using Cliffs coffee from Boulevard Coffee Roasting Company. Actually he just closed his last shop and went back to roasting only.

Excellent

Todays experience was not the best. The coffee is great as usual but the omelet I ordered took over 20 min to come out, with a close to empty lobby When it did come out the omelet itself was warm not hot. The cheese inside was barley warm and needed to be melted much more. I was disappointed as it is a cold day and was looking forward to a hot meal. For 11.50 it was not appealing, cornerstone offers a much larger omelet for 8.50 and has more ingredients and size to there meal. Sorry old soul but today was not your day.

Staff was really friendly and the environment is cozy.

Loved this place ! All the employees were so sweet to my family & I. We are visiting Sacramento from Houston & we now have a warm/ welcoming experience of this city 😊🙌🏼

I couldn’t believe how amazing the mocha was! I’ve had it all around world and live in Portland where coffee is king , but wow. Unreal good! ☕️👏🏼

The food and service were both top notch. Super laid back locals hangout. We will be back!

Actually wish I could give 0 stars. The staff were not very friendly and the place felt dirty. Ordered a vanilla latte and all it tasted like was someone dumped the vanilla flavoring in the cup with a slight hint of burnt coffee. Ended up throwing my full drink away. Fiance got a cold brew which we also threw away. We love to try new places and HIGHLY do not recommend this one.

I love Old Soul! Ive been to 2 of their locations now. The decor is really cute and the outdoor seating in the alley is great. Very quiet and private. Sandwiches are good, I only wish they had 2 kinds of iced tea, oh well! Chocolate muffin is to die for. I get one every time.

Always such a cool, relaxing vibe here, plus you enter through the alley so it feels a bit like a hidden place for locals, which it sort of is. Super nice staff, good selection of drinks (even beer, I think) and food. Comfy black leather couches to sink into and read the paper or get online. Must visit.

Tasty muffin and good coffee. The room has a great vibe. What more can you want?

Great place to grab a coffee and some eats. Stay and chill or grab and go - either way the staff is super friendly and attentive. They look you in the eye when talking to you unlike many other places.

I really like this place for casual coffee and even lunch and came here often for morning coffee before I was teleworking and worked nearby. But my reviews of coffee shops are from a teleworker perspective, otherwise 4 stars.You can find outlets in most areas but you still need to look around. Coffee and food are very good and service is generally very good but can vary by who is there up to disinterested and unhelpful. Seating is fine but not sure how comfortable for longer sessions. Parking can be problematic at times throughout the day but typical for the area.Refreshingly, the wifi isnt an afterthought as they use serious hardware (Ruckus) with multiple APs. But unfortunately its often not working properly. For my typical review I have a surface laptop, HP windows tablet, Android and iphone. I was unable to connect with any device (of the 3 coffee shops I was at that day it was the only one with ANY failure to connect). I asked two tables next to me (with what looked like regulars) and they could not connect and made the comment that this is normal here). I asked the young lady behind the counter and she had no clue and that was that. So after high hopes of this being the near perfect teleworking coffee shop I left disappointed.

Solid neighborhood spot! Pretty noisy inside and a fairly small space so probably better for more intimate dinners if you want to be able to hear one another.

Great little spot off of the beaten path. They have an excellent selection of teas and coffee options. The food selection is a great as well. They accept cash and card.

In Sacramento, just off L St in the alley in the back, is a coffee oasis that will satisfy your caffeine cravings! I drove up from San Francisco for business. Too early to eat and decided to grab a latte. Found this place on Google search Coffee near me. OK Google! The latte was perfection and I also tried the Orange Pecan Biscotti and it was divine! Gentleman behind the counter was friendly, courteous and efficient. 5 Stars and thanks for the great service and caffeine.

Super cute little place. I loved the atmosphere, friendly staff, and the tea was delicious. I will definitely be back.

Charming and elegant coffee stop. Great atmosphere and delightful service. Fantastic way to start your day.

Great atmosphere. Cappuccino is too bitter, staff could be more friendly, bran muffin is not tasty

I ordered a lemonade and was told they will not have it until the summertime. So thats fine. Then I asked for ice tea and she said, no, they did not have it. I sit with coffee I did not want and see ice tea on the menu. Really? I wont be coming back.

I really loved this place. Looking forward to going back again.
