Panama Bay Coffee Co.

I enjoyed the white mocha blended coffee flavor. I was treated very well and the service was quick. I just thought it wasn’t worth over five bucks but it was above average.

If it wasn’t for the amazing, personable, treat-you-like-family people that Staff the place, I would have to focus on the exceptional ambience, fun community of regulars and delicious coffee…No, I’m gonna go with savory menu. The sandwiches for sure. Except, I’m the type to plug in my laptop and stay for awhile. There is a spacious floor with lots of tables. I’m gonna go with that. Very hospitable to cafe-ers (new word)

What a terrible experience. I was planning on doing some work and having a nice cop of coffee inside for a change. I’ve ordered it in a nice ceramic cup and sat at the table. Shortly after I had to use the bathroom and then I noticed its out of order. They used to have two bathrooms available now they’ve converted one into the employee bathroom and wouldn’t let me use it telling me I have to go across the street. I had to pack my staff pour the coffee into “to go cup” and leave in the hurry. Thank you Alehouse for letting me to use your restroom without spending money.

Ambiance is amazing, feels like the best spot in central downtown Livermore to hang out and watch the crowds stroll by. Staff is awesome! Only reason I’m not giving 5 stars - and this seems a tad important for a coffee place - is that I don’t love love the coffee(!). Almost all their coffee preparations taste like they’ve been sweetened a little. I’m sure it’s the bean or roast or something cause I know they aren’t dumping sugar in there, and it’s not BAD coffee, just personal preference. They have live one-person music often (like acoustic guitar + singing). Great place to hang overall.

Sometimes in life it’s the little things that matter. Coffee tend to be one of those things for me. When I tell you one sip of their coffee puts me in a better mood a better mindset and puts a smile on my face I’m telling the truth. Whenever I come in here staff are always friendly, my coffee tastes like magic, and by the way breakfast sandwhiches are to die for!!! I go here regularly, today the machines broke and customers were throwing fits just being rude. I had to walk away from this old Santa Claus lookin man so I wouldn’t yell at him the things he was saying and demanding and interrupting and the employees handled it with such easy patience and kindness. These people are awesome and as someone that doesn’t really like to talk to people I look forward to a quick chat with them while I wait for my coffee. Thank you Panama for the magic coffee and people <3

Hello! Please fix your online ordering system. There’s some confusion and miscommunication between customers looking at your webpages and the baristas at the shop.

Coffee itself was okay! Service was okay. A 3 star experience, all in all.

Cool place, but it was very understaffed when I went in.

First visit here. Busy Saturday at 11AM. Good sign. Friendly staff. While we were there orders were not called out by name, so we saw some mix-up with orders. I ordered a small hot white mocha. It was great, not too sweet and not bitter. A great pull of espresso, right amount of white chocolate and steamed milk. Will definitely come again while in Livermore.

Usually good breakfast sandwich and coffee. Sometimes the coffee strength is unpredictable. I like that each batista has a style, but it shouldn't be such a large spectrum of variance, in my opinion. Friendly & chill atmosphere. They often open later than other coffee shops in town but also stay open later than others, so it's a nice trade-off, especially when you just want a carmel breeze on a hot afternoon.

Just bc I already had so much coffee today I didn’t end up trying theirs but I’m so so glad I got the blueberry banana muffin! Probably the best muffin in recent years and a part of that is because it’s so nice and moist but the top still has a bit of crispiness. Looking forward to try my white chocolate macadamia later!
