Inklings Coffee and Tea

Coffee and specialty drinks, very social atmosphere and very, very busy. I'm surprised they close so early considering how many customers are still there at closing time.

Nice neighborhood coffee cafe. The ambiance is lacking, however. Seating and pastries limited, outside seating not suitable for large groups. But would still patronize this coffee shop over the chain cafes.

Great local coffee place. I highly recommend their Lavender Latte which is made with fresh lavender.

Amazing coffee, also love how they have normal coffee portions instead of massive jumbo delux sizes seen at other places

The space is adorable and there are lots of chairs and tables of different types to sit and work while you sip, along with decent wifi. Clean restrooms with multiple stalls a huge plus. But the overpriced brewed drip coffee was cold and the man behind the counter talked loudly non-stop. I appreciate his friendliness, but it felt more like a bar than a coffee shop.

Great local place! Hand made flavors, a library/book nook attached. Only bummer is that it is associated with churches & a christian community. Definitely a downside in my opinion. Try the lavender drinks, you won't be disappointed. Allergy-friendly place too. They have gluten free, nut free, and vegan baked goods. Their staff is also knowledgeable about allergy-safe drinks if you ask.

Finally.. I found a place that has good black coffee, not over roasted! Go here for your black coffee needs!

Great shop with indoor and outdoor seating.

Hip and happening coffee shop in the heart of Pleasanton where you can find a good selection of coffee, tea, and kombucha, along with pour over and draft cold brew options. There’s also a prohibition menu with some uniquely blended drinks (recommend the bourbon & bourbon consisting of bourbon st vanilla tea, caramel bourbon, and almond milk).
The indoor seating has a rustic feel with the wooden architecture and furnishings. There’s a small library room with limited tables and a window that faces the street. And another room that is much larger with lots of seating and even a stage, which I assume is used for church service or other events.
The wifi works great and it’s easy to focus indoors if you decide to bring along some work. There’s also plenty of parking in the lot just outside.

Coffee was delicious. Service was nice. It took a while to get my coffee we but they were busy at the time. Love all the old books and the little room of to the side away from the Hussle n Hussle of people ordering and getting their coffee
