Bondadoso Coffee and Tea Collective

A nice place to have good coffee in Walnut Creek. I actually visited the shop three years ago when it was newly opened. The place has expanded with outdoor seating and new items on menu. I had Rose Latte which was a new twist to the coffee and it was very good. One of my must visit place in Walnut Creek.

Big disappointment. I only drink one cup of coffee per day so if im spending $6 For that one cup I do my best to make sure it’s more than worth it. For a place that talks a big game about their coffee…the art of pulling espresso is lost on them. My cortado honestly tasted like stale Starbucks coffee.
Very sad.
Not a roastery and they are certainly not doing justice to the small batch roasteries whose coffee they sell. Either that or they just throw all their stale coffee in a bag and shake it up to make their espresso mix.

Also, it’s a red flag that their “cappuccinos” are 10 oz: A traditional cappuccino in Italy is 6 oz., and coffee places in the US that have any clue make an 8 oz cappuccino.
The owners need to do some research and train their staff properly. It’s sad that it’s the only coffee shop for miles that’s not Starbucks or peets.
Major bummer. Major waste of $6.
Perhaps their pour-overs and drip coffee are better.

This palce wont let you get a coffee if you have a pet with you no matter how docile the dog is unless it is a service animal. Well all that for how dog-friendly California is!

My favorite thing to do is check out independent coffee shops that I haven’t been to prior. This one hands down, is the best that I’ve been to in a while. Having anxiety is troublesome going to new places so I ordered ahead then waited in line for my order. The staff was incredibly nice and the vibe was welcoming. I ordered the iced honey lavender latte (dairy free is available and delicious!) With 2 espresso shots and it was a 10/10 in my book. The coffee quality itself is extraordinarily good and I know I will become a regular here. They sell coffee and coffee essentials which may be purchased at my next visit. If you also forgot your mask, (please wear one!) they will deliver to you in the back outside for a safe delivery according to the sign on the door. Hands down an amazing place overall and I will be here again!

Nice little neighborhood coffee place. They've got a small patio area to enjoy your order outside and soak up the sun while you work or read. No indoor sitting until COVID goes away, but good indoor area with a supply of games to enjoy. No coffee at my office, so I make the afternoon stroll to get something weekly when in the office. Pastries look good here too. Bike parking too.

Great staff and energy here!… A café based on the theme of kindness! … a unique experience not to be missed!

If you like cold brew, try the Alter Ego. It's probably the best cold brew I have ever tasted!

Our beverages were great, but the wall of inspirational quotes was the best part!

I love this coffee shop they have a great variety of foods, drinks and awesome staff. Can’t wait to come back for more!

Charming coffee place. Love the vibe.
