Ellie's Espresso & Bakery

I come here all the time and have never had a bad experience. The staff is amazing and always makes you feel welcome, the food and drinks are awesome, and the decor is chic and comfortable. The free WiFi is a plus too. Ellie's is the best place in town!

Ellie's sits midway on South Weed Boulevard, parking can be tight but I can assure you it's worth figuring out. When you enter you're greated with a clean shabby chic vibe and the freshly grinded scent of delicious coffee. The baristas are always welcoming and quick to offer their service! Take a seat in the surprising seating area off to the side in a cozy leather chair or at tables, whichever is your delight.
On certain evenings you will find the bakery turns into a wine bar with fantastic appetizers and even live music from time to time. Be sure to check for any upcoming Paint and Sip events, always a blast!

We went in here for coffee and bakery but they had no baked goods. We ended up getting sandwiches. Which weren't bad just not what we were expecting, I've never had a ham wrap with rice inside but it was good.

The cutest bakery! I chose it because it was close to motel 6 and right on the road, and had good reviews. I love it! Had the breakfast sandwich (eggs bacon cheese in a croissant) and Chai tea. Super delicious! Not only the staff is fantastic and very attentive, they also let me bring in my cat inside (in it's carrier of course) because it was freezing outside. If I am in tge town of Weed again I am definitely stopping by! P. S. Love the decor!

There is plenty of variety on food, and the coffee is respectable. The staff is friendly, but there is no rushing in this small town.

I got the Shasta Bagel Melt on a Hiker bagel with Swiss cheese. It was delicious.

Wonderful little place we found on our way to San Rafael. Kind & attentive staff awaits you along with tasty pastries & full menus for breakfast & lunch, and a nice wine bar in the evenings. A warm, cozy feeling place with wifi & even a fireplace to warm you in the winter. We'll make this stop again! :):)

It used to be my favorite spot.
I used to recommend this place to everyone that would listen.
It used to have fresh pastries and great coffee.
So it really hurts my heart to say the following about a local business.
But enough is enough!
Management and owners all have been contacted about the following situations from multiple people in the community.....
For some reason they got rid of all their old staff (not my business because I am not management nor am I an employee) but the new staff is just low speed with lots of drag.
I will only list a few of the problems I and many others have experienced in just the past couple months.......
Sweet pastries have tasted like onions and bacon, the coffee is now ALWAYS bad, the Baristas (clothing is not professional and usually dirty) were NOT knowledgeable in the products/procedures, and now it takes forever to get anything you order AND..... when you do get your order, it's usually wrong.
I don't know what has happened in the past several months but these guys really need to get their act together because I and many other locals have literally stop spending our money there.

Waited over 40 minutes for our two sandwiches, they didnt enforce the mask mandate when people walked in without masks, and when we finally did get our food my bagel was literally rock hard, compleatly inedible. Will not be back. Do not reccomend.

Great coffee, but I wasn't too impressed with their food. But their pastries were great.

Granted we fell for the tourist trap, but save your money. For $20 all we got was a half filled espresso, tiny bagel, latte, and a croissant. Coffee is meh too.
