Current popular artsy coffee shop. Great avocado breads and hand made donuts. Employees add a great vibe and parking is free if you park at the theaters. Finally, they have a nice deck in front for sunny days. Yes, this should be on your list for a good conversation with your dear friend. ….I hope the new shake shack opening next door does not change it.

I absolutely love the staff and the food here! The morning mood chai latte is heaven sent and their avocado toasts are to die for! The staff is always so extremely friendly, the interior is cute and their place is fully vegan! I absolutely love it, whenever I crave something sweet I always choose to buy from here, it makes me feel good to eat fully vegan and know what I am eating/purchasing! Their seasonal foods are amazing as always, I love going here as part of my morning routine!

Rooted is my go to when in Walnut Creek!
For vegans and non vegans alike, you will simply LOVE the food here, all fresh and organic!
There are too many yummy options to choose from but I really enjoyed the avo toast, topped with chickpeas!
Try it…you won’t regret it!

One of the things I loved while I was in Sydney Australia was how many dog friendly places there were. I wish there were more places like that here in Walnut Creek. I found one in Rooted. Some cafes say they are dog friendly, but they won't let you bring the dog in just to order. Not so with Rooted
The coffee was really good, and the cinnamon donut completed the mid day snack. With that said, the atmosphere is what I loved most about rooted. I highly recommend this place.

Delicious vegan cafe with THE best avocado toasts - whether you’re vegan or not! (Which I am not so it’s honestly shocking how much I love this place) The bread is so soft & dreamy, the avocado whip is so fluffy, and they have lots of variations that are all so good. They also make their own simple syrups which I always look for in a coffee shop. Today I ordered their signature Orange Rosemary Latte and the Strawberry Fields Avocado Toast. So freakin good. I own my own business but sometimes I just wanna work here for fun lol. Such a great atmosphere.

Excellent lavender mint latte and dirty (espresso) chai drinks. Tasty avocado toast with hint of lemon. Great vibe, ambiance, seating, design, music, etc! Recommend 👍 Cool indoor/ outdoor seating in downtown WC.

This was my third time at Rooted and I’m finally getting around to writing a review. Everything I’ve had here has been great. Their Nitro cold brew, vanilla mint latte, matcha lemonade. Their vegan donuts and avocado toast options. The avo toast with their smashed chickpea salad was also delish — “make it snappy!” Solid food and bev all around as well as great service.

Stopped by for an afternoon pick me up. I got a cortado and a chai latte. The cortado was wonderful and the chai was good. I’m not sure if they make their own chai concentrate but it’s cardamom forward.

This place is a dream and so happy they opened a Walnut Creek location! Everything is so delicious - definitely my favorite coffee or breakfast spot. Service is reliably friendly and they are relatively quick (though they can be verrry busy at peak times, just like anywhere else, and worth the wait). Online ordering is great for those in a rush. We’ve had everything from coffee, cardamom lattes, lavender matcha lattes, waffles of all kinds, avocado toasts (thick bread and generous toppings - “Make it Fresh” is my favorite). Donuts. Parfaits. It’s ALL delightful! Specialty drinks can be a little sweet, but they’ll modify accordingly. Everything is vegan, yet still a crowd pleaser even for our “meat and potatoes” loved ones. It’s a little spendy, but the quality more than justifies the price. Parking can be a challenge, as is seating, so we often plan to walk a little and take it to go.
