Old Soul Capitol Mall

555 Capitol Mall, Sacramento, CA

★★★★4.4(209 Google reviews)

Crema's Take

This Capitol Mall spot wins hearts with genuinely exceptional service and a welcoming atmosphere that makes it worth lingering over a pour over, though opinions on the coffee quality and pricing are decidedly mixed. The team—particularly standout staff like Lucius—creates that rare cafe environment where you actually want to settle in for a meeting or slow morning, and the pastries and light food offerings give you reason to stay. Fair warning: the coffee itself and food pricing draw some sharp criticism from regulars, so manage expectations if you're primarily after an exceptional cup rather than an exceptional experience.

One star on the food. Way way over priced, burnt, and cold kesh. Potatoes were terrible. Coffee mediocre and over priced. Service is exceptional! Environment was neat!

It was okay. I didn’t hate and, certainly, didn’t love it. If you’re looking for something to fill the tummy- then it’s okay though nothing to write home about.

As someone who's been a regular coming in multiple times a week, this was the last time this place earns my business. I advise anyone that likes overpriced coffee to finding another coffee shop as the staff is extremely rude asking me not to loiter after buying coffee and bringing friends here. I've been a paying patron and it seems insane to me to treat paying customers like that. I just wanted to finish what was left of my 20 minute break after buying coffee here, instead I was asked to leave because I was "loitering" when the entire patio was vacant at 11 am. I will let my entire department know not to come here, shame.

5/5 stars! Old Soul Cafe is a true gem! The moment I walked in, I was struck by the beautiful smile of Lucius, who greeted me with warmth and made me feel right at home. The cafe's aesthetics are simply wonderful - a perfect blend of cozy and modern. But what really made my experience stand out was Lucius' exceptional service. He took the time to answer all my questions, offered recommendations, and even shared stories behind the cafe's dishes. His insight and passion for the food and drinks were truly inspiring. The food was, of course, delicious, but it was Lucius' hospitality that made my visit truly special. If you're looking for a place where you can feel welcome and indulged, look no further than Old Soul Cafe. Ask for Lucius - he'll take care of you like family! Can't wait to come back and experience it all again!"
