Avid Coffee
2365 Midway Dr, Santa Rosa, CA
Crema's Take
“This espresso-focused Santa Rosa spot pulls in crowds with killer value—their any-size Americanos are just $4—and a welcoming vibe that works equally well for serious coffee nerds and laptop campers. The outdoor seating makes it perfect for lingering over pour overs or pastries like their generously-sized salted chocolate chip cookies, though you might need patience during peak morning hours when it gets genuinely packed. Reviewers consistently praise the quality of their traditional drinks, especially the flat whites, though a few wish the food menu came with more detailed descriptions.”

I wish the menu was a bit more detailed but overall I enjoyed my food and drink. Avocado toast was good. The hardboiled egg add on was chilled which I do wish they had option to warm it and the Vanilla latte was delicious not too sweet. Overall I loved this place, the atmosphere and staff were very kind. Would definitely come back!
Felt nice. Here visiting from out of town. My brother went to Santa Rosa to play college ball. He gave me some nice spots to go to. He didn’t suggest this one so I enjoyed my coffee it was good and quick and easy. Good place to me. Didn’t taste the food but figure since coffee was so good food has to be as well. If they could get some good country music going in the back that be so good and a good vibe. Nice place got two more days might come back before I leave Friday so much to see and do here in Santa Rosa.
The Americano is $4 for any size, which is such a good deal. The salted chocolate chip cookie is really big and perfect for sharing. A lot of people come here to work, so it can be hard to find a seat at times.
Great place! We stumbled into this cafe while visiting family, and because we'd come straight from San Jose we didn't have time to drop off our pet houseducks. So we ate outside with them instead. Food was good, coffee was REALLY good, the place was absolutely packed so they must be doing something right. Our duck Bean really, REALLY wanted my fiance's muffin, and Wobbles kept eyeing my sandwich. So I can definitely say Avid Coffee is duck approved.
My visit was at 10:00am on Monday. Very busy and crowded, it took about 12 minutes to get to order. I got a flat white per my usual order. Got the drink quick enough and got a seat outside, due to all the seats taken inside. The drink was okay, nothing special and not very unique in flavor, the coffee that was used was nondescript and without any qualities other than just being coffee. It was well made and had a nice flourish on top, but overall nothing special. It was loud and right on the corner of a busy business area. I know that this is not the businesses fault but it does affect the experience. So yeah it is okay if you want a well made drink, but the roast/blend was bland and meh.
