Hipster coffee and a breath of fresh air along the West Sac riverfront. Super super cute cafe. The staff are always friendly. There are always a good amount of people hanging out here or working from here. Cute place to chill or grab a beverage!

Delicious sweets/pastries and great coffee. Quiet atmosphere, all kinds of people here (students, business oriented, etc). They make the best white mochas!!! Found a great new coffee place to chill.

Ive been a fan of Identity Coffee for years. I finally got a chance to check out their Westside cafe and its excellent. Their vegan waffles are a revelation and I wish I could eat them every day. The herbivore sandwich was great, especially the pickled onions. The hummus is very heavy on the cumin, which I appreciate. I cant wait to eat here again. And get a coffee. (I love love love the cascara!)

Vegan waffles were soft, moist, and sweet! I got the strawberry jam which was very sweet so you wont need additional syrup. Milk substitutes are oak and almond. :)

This is a cute little spot. The first thing youll notice is how spacious it feels despite not being the largest spot. The open layout, long, lovely wooden tables and natural light makes if feel cozy, warm and yet spacious. The service is pretty prompt, kind and warm. I had a breakfast sandwich and we shared a waffle. The sandwich was unimpressive and kinda small, in my opinion. The vegan waffle, on the other hand, was AMAZING; it was flaky, moist, not doughy and perfectly sweet. I want to eat these waffles daily 😍. I will go back for the waffles.

This is my local coffee shop, near my business in West Sac. I have meetings here on occasion, and theres always a nice spot to sit. The parking available across the street in the Burgers & Brew lot makes longer visits a breeze, and the decor is very industrial, but still warm & welcoming. Love their cappuccinos!

Lucky, Vanessa & Ryan have opened another great cafe. The location is excellent. Very convenient if you are in West Sacramento or Old Town. The coffee is wonderful, just like their other location. The new breakfast items are delicious. They also have local beer & wine. Go check this little gem out.

The coffee is acidic. I like their hot coco kinda. The actually shop smells weird, like that weird steamy coffee shop smell. Really stuffy. Chairs are really uncomfortable but the tables are NICE AND ROOMY. I love how there’s a lot of windows, nice natural lighting. However I won’t come here to do school work because of the smell and the chairs.

If you are Vegan avoid this coffee shop. I asked for Oatmilk in my latte and was served whole milk. I have an allergy to milk fats. I wasnt told about the mistake until after I had already taken a sip.

This is a very clean coffee shop with a nice atmosphere. The baristas were awesome and very, very friendly. Got a cold brew while my girlfriend got an Americano. Both were full of flavor and delicious. I will happily be returning whenever I go to West Sac.

Ive always enjoyed Identity Coffee and finally got the chance to make it to West Sac to check out Westside. The food was so good! The waffle with strawberry was exactly what I wanted it to be. Slightly crunchy on the outside soft and fluffy on the inside. Yum.

Industrial design coffee shop. Pretty simple but great menu. Great music choice, last time I was there they were playing motown records. The staff is also fantastic, theyre very friendly.

Review №24

Prices are excellent and the coffee is fantastic. Baristas are professional and the service is always good. Westside Identity spoils you though. Id put them at the top of the list for the area.

Review №25

This place is AH-MAH-ZING. It is a shame they dont have a location that is high traffic or has easily accessible parking. However, their food and coffee is top notch. Breakfast sandwiches and avocado toast are some of the best in Sac. My favorite latte in Sac too.

Review №26

This is my favorite coffee shop. Their lattes are delicious, chocolate waffles are crisp with melty chocolate! Their breakfast sandwiches have the little details like chopped green onions and cilantro that really make this place special. Its also a great place to do work because they have wifi and a more peaceful atmosphere.

**update**Still great service, consistent coffee, and really good food. Ive been going back to Wetstside Identity Coffee pretty regularly now and wanted to say, Ill continue going. The barista even recognizes me now and gives me a locals discount, love this place!over the past few weeks, Ive gone back and the service has improved greatly. The coffee selection is great and I will highly recommend this coffee roasters.

Review №36

$4 for black coffee and I cant bring my little dog in. Oof.To your response:I can understand the logic behind your choice to ostensibly support coffee growers. But in 2019 the general public can see the redundancy in selling fair trade coffee on a tablet made by child-slaves in a newly gentrified neighborhood next to a heavily polluted river.Interestingly its been shown that the coffee labeled as fair trade is often bringing less revenue to growers. A study published in the Journal of Business Ethics titled Empowering Coffee Traders? The Coffee Value Chain from Nicaraguan Fair Trade Farmers to Finnish Consumers is an interesting read.I dont mean to be harsh, Im genuinely writing this with your (and my) interest in mind. There isnt a coffee shop for miles on this side of the river. Id be in there 356 mornings a year for three large cups of coffee at $2 a pop.

Great place I love the avocado toast a little bit more sodium than I was expecting but I think it was because of the bacon but great overall the coffee is amazing and the waffle is the die for.
