“ By far my favorite coffee shop in Sac. The menu is so unique and the focus is on good quality coffee beans. It's not your standard coffee shop, so don't go in there expecting Starbucks. It's more like a cocktail bar with coffee and you can fully customize your drink down to the bean. Food is great and and the service is awesome. If you aren't sure what to order, they are more than happy to suggest something for you and will make you something else if you don't like it. Couldn't recommend this place enough! ”
“ Best food and coffee in Sac! Hard to find better beans, milk, eggs, bread, etc served anywhere for the price, creativity, and intention that Burnside brings. If you like high quality coffee, food, and service come here. Plus fun vibes. Sooo sad to be moving out of town away from the best ”
“ This PLACE. The staff (gentleman) was super friendly and knowledgeable about all the beans and flavors. He seemed to care about taking the time to walk me through “how it works”, and honestly this was the best cup of coffee I have had in Sacramento. I ordered mine “shaken and chilled”. This was the first time I was able to finish an iced coffee before the ice cubes melted. Drinks are very fairly priced. I cannot wait to return. Unfortunately, they do close a bit early at 4PM, so I will have to try to rush over on lunch breaks but I am anticipating my next cup already! Thank you Burnside! ”
“ Possibly the most incredible, unique coffee bar exprience you'll ever have! Burnside staff are so nice and knowledgeable. The coffee flights are so worth it and you can really taste how fresh it is. 10/10! ”
“ Vibe feels like chill cyberpunk with very friendly service. Food is absolutely worth coming back for. The coffee is stellar and unique. Pro tip: try the cold foam coffee options. ”
“ Incredible coffee and food! I ordered an espresso, breakfast sandwich, and fresh squeezed OJ. The espresso was dialed in to a science and the Sando was made with carefully sourced ingredients (no seed oils!). Fresh squeezed OJ to top it all off. If you are a coffee aficionado and like to eat quality food look no further. 10/10 ”
“ Burnside Coffee Bar is a unique entry into the 916's crowded coffehouse scene. Picture a craft cocktail bar, but make it beans. This place stirs science, flavor, and precision into every cup like it’s a chemistry final you actually want to pass. Pick your beans and watch the magic unfold. Or you can sip a flight like you're wine tasting. And you probably want to! The flavors are wild, from Melon Creamsicle to Bubble Yum. BUT. If you roll up with a Dutch Bros sugar bomb or a drive-thru frappe mood, keep driving. Burnside’s drinks are slow-crafted with surgical precision — which means yes, there might be a wait, and no, there’s no unicorn caramel whipped rainbow nonsense here. The menu? Not exactly beginner-friendly, but the staff’s chill and ready to guide you through your bean awakening. The vibe is a little cyberpunk dorm room with a side of goth. Not the coziest or most aesthetic, but you’re not here for the furniture — you’re here for the flavor alchemy. And flavor? Burnside delivers. If you’re a true coffee snob (or aspire to be), this is your new pilgrimage site. How I break down my ⭐ reviews: 1 - No. Not if it was the last thing on DoorDash. 2 - Meh. Maybe if I’m desperate, close, and high. 3 - Mid. Not texting the group chat about it. 4 - Hella solid. Planning my next visit. 5 - Shut up and take my money. Om Nom Nom. ”
