The Waiting Room
961 Ukiah St, Mendocino, CA
Crema's Take
“Tucked a block off Mendocino's Main Street, this warmly-lit spot feels like a vintage living room where espresso excellence meets creative house-made lattes like cardamom rose, paired with an impressive pastry case of both indulgent and thoughtfully inclusive options. It's equal parts coffee bar and breakfast destination with board games, good music, and a convivial atmosphere that makes it perfect for lingering over a cappuccino with friends or settling in solo by the wood fireplace.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.
