Black Oak Coffee Roasters

I would absolutely stop here again on my road trip. You can see them roasting their own coffee beans behind a glass wall. The whole place is a little big and intimidating, but it smells wonderful. The staff is friendly and It has clean bathrooms according to my husband. Lots of whole milk, almond milk, oat milk, etc. Really nice latte options. I got the Mayan mocha. Rather than having just a little bit of red pepper or whatever it is. They sprinkle on top. It actually had more of a smoky dark flavor that I thought was really interesting and a nice change of pace. The chocolate chip cookies my kids ordered were delivered hot and gooey. The sandwiches looked very inviting but we weren't in a position to eat. If I had to complain about anything, it's that their parking lot was very small compared to how popular it is!. But they can't really do anything about that. Just a fair warning that it might be busy and you might have to park adjacent or next door and walk through some bushes. 5 stars

Great spot, with a chill vibe. Their specialty copies are really good, I definitely recommend the Lovers Lane latte and the lavender latte. Nice to smell coffee roasting when they do it. And their whole bean coffee or ground coffee offerings are really good as well. I’m glad that Ukiah has something like this as opposed to just the large corporate chain.

Huge, spacious coffee shop with high ceilings and large windows to light up the amazing offerings. We visited on a hopping Sunday. Even with the traffic, our wait was short and our drinks were fabulous. We tried the spring seasonal offerings and that lemon meringue latte may have changed my life - SO good! Picked up a t-shirt, and a strong desire to return to Ukiah for this great coffee!

Ukiah Black Oak coffee rosters is not only the best coffee shop in town but one of the best ones throughout the 101 route and, I dare to say, the Emerald Triangle. Upscale and community gathering place all at once. I always enjoy their season creations ( they tend to be on the sweeter side). I’ve tried all mochas, all amazing, with my favorite being the Borgia Mocha (there’s something elegant and subtly festive about orange and chocolate). Sometimes I order the espresso shake, which is a perfect afternoon pick me up decadent “I deserve it” treat for the 2hours ride back home in the Bay. Other days I go just a latte so I can taste the high-quality beans. I’ve loved everything I’ve ordered throughout the years. They have 10% off bagged coffee sales on Mondays. Their location is perfect, free parking: coming from the Bay Area is about 2 to 2 1/2 hours into the 101N, which makes it ideal to use restroom and hit the road back singing happy with coffee made to perfection and doubling as energizing incense in the car. Their food is amazing too (turkey pesto sandwich, quinoa salad and jalapeño cheddar scones super yum!)

This is hands-down the best coffee shop in town! They roast their own beans in-house, which you can truly taste in the quality and depth of their brews. I haven’t tried much of the menu yet, but the nitro cold brew is phenomenal—smooth with a rich hazelnut flavor and a clean finish. I especially appreciate that they serve it without ice, which keeps the flavor intact (unlike other places that water it down). The prices are reasonable, especially considering the quality. I also tried the chocolate chip cookie, which was $4—but honestly worth every penny. It was fresh, soft, and generously sized. The shop itself has a welcoming, cozy vibe with plenty of indoor seating—perfect for conversation, studying, or working on a laptop (free Wi-Fi included). It’s also proudly a safe LGBTQ+ space, which makes it even more inviting and inclusive. There’s also some outdoor seating for people-watching, and about seven parking spots in the lot plus street parking right out front, which is super convenient. My only gripe is that it can get a little messy. I wiped down my own table and there was food on the floor. If you’re looking for great coffee, a comfortable atmosphere, and good vibes, this place is a gem. I’ll definitely be back to try more!

I am glad we stopped by on our way passing through town. I love good coffee and this one was a home run. Great pastries and I had the lavender oatmilk latte.

So impressed with this coffee shop I can’t believe it’s so far from where I’m from but it’s great on your way up to 101! Super good gluten-free maple cookie as well and the coffee flavors great. One of the barista also designed the T-shirt so make sure you buy one.

Fun coffee shop with tasty treats. Blueberry muffin was delish. Ordered two of their popular coffee, lovers lane and brown sugar vanilla.

Wonderful! Great service, Great location, clean, cozy, Great food and coffee options

Coffee is really good and there are a lot of choices. However, they just gave me regular when I asked for decaf and I am going to be paying for it ALL DAY LONG. Ugh. My stomach is cramping and my hands are shaking. So... that isn't fun. Sometimes the folks at the counter are nice and sometimes they are really kind of mean or just too cool to be nice. The wait for your order can be long. I really need to talk about the bakery products, though. They can be tasty but aren't baked well at all. The croissants are heavy, underbaked, and there is zero lamination. The biscuits are more like scones and aren't even a little flaky - they are heavy and often underbaked, although tasty. The whole point about biscuits is about lamination and flakiness. These are drop biscuits, not rolled, so disappointing, albeit not as disappointing as the croissants which are dough bombs. They do, however, donate to the community and have a wonderful community space that is warm and inviting.

Simply the best coffee in the area. Lovely staff, nice place to sit down and a nice selection of baked goods.

This place is so spacious and cozy at the same time. They quickly helped us, I tried an iced mocha, none of the snacks, but looks like the food would be good too!

Wow what a great yelp find, thanks yelpers and mom! We were driving up north and I needed a stop so mom did some yelp sleuthing while I drove and she came across this place. Let me just say a week later and I am still thinking about that jalapeno biscuit I had. It had just the right amount of kick to it and kept me full and satisfied for hours. I also have to get a Golden Milk Latte any time I see it on the menu and this one did not disappoint. It had just the right amount of spice to it. The space was definitely chill and although we weren't getting coffee it was still pretty cool to see the coffee factory through the window of the cafe. I will be back especially to try some of their house made teas next time!

They open early and coffee was amazing! Had the Dubai mocha. Yummy! Why does a review have to be 85 characters?

Before driving back to San Francisco, we decided to stop by here to try their award-winning espresso and unique drinks. The interior is large and cozy with industrial vibes. Our order: Latte (Medium - $5.00): +Drinkable temperature: Hot, but doesn't burn your mouth/tongue +Whole milk made for creamy drink. +Cute latte art -Espresso could be stronger. Lovers Lane Latte (Medium - $6.00) +Drinkable temperature: Hot, but doesn't burn your mouth/tongue +Local wildflower honey and bee pollen added floral and fruity notes. +Cute latte art -It became a tad too sweet towards the end: If I ordered this again, I'd request less sweetness. -There was an L written on top of the handle, and the ink rubbed off onto my fingers. To prevent transfer, it might be better if they wrote on the dish instead. Café Borgia (Medium - $6.00) +Drinkable temperature: Hot, but doesn't burn your mouth/tongue +Combination of dark chocolate and orange was balanced and not too sweet +Cute latte art -There was an L written on top of the handle, and the ink rubbed off onto my fingers. To prevent transfer, it might be better if they wrote on the dish instead. Side notes: 1.) Their mugs are HUGE compared to typical coffee shops; A lady ordered a large, and it looked like a bowl. 2.) Free parking lot right outside. *Verdict: I'd love to try more of their menu when I'm in the area again!

Don't go to this place... ... if you want the rest of your coffee experiences to suck. This place is very good and I am always sad when I have to get coffee at cafes out of town

Service was fantastic, the atmosphere was open and welcoming and the late afternoon breakfast burrito was perfect. A well earned 5 stars!

Good matcha, normal pricing. Baristas were super nice, drinks came out fast even though it was busy. Interesting atmosphere, not sure I'd want to hang out there. Mocha seemed a little off

If you're in the Mendocino/Redwood Empire area, don't miss this spot. Had the most pleasant latte this morning at Ukiah is a ways up 101 from the Bay, but this shop has the friendliest staff, tastiest pastries, and the drinks were pretty dang good. I ordered the seasonal Coquito Latte, which had a rum coconut syrup and was SO nice. Perfectly cozy. An added plus was the outside patio was heated! Stopped on our road trip home from visiting family in Oregon and might just need to make this my last latte stop of the year and end it on a positive note. Next time I'm up in the Mendo area, I'm definitely going to try and find a way to come back.

Nice coffee shop but note it does get busy in the morning. Parking wasn't ample but they have their own lot. We managed to get indoor seating but they do have some outdoors too. I really liked the vegetable quiche. Very flavorful and the crust had a nice hard texture to complement the fluffy inside filled with onions and zucchini. They have a nice variety of other pastries they can heat up for you too.

Stopped by this cute coffee place on a whim. We were driving through Ukiah and decided to check it out. I ordered a chai latte which was delicious and my boyfriend loved his latte. Nice ambiance, fast service and friendly staff.

We go out of our way any time we are even remotely close to be sure we can stop and enjoy Black Oak. A fantastic mix of coffee drinks - always some fun specials- and a pastry case with good choices all the time. This trip was for a Peanut Butter Mocha and a Rosemary Nutella Mocha. What's great is no particular flavor overwhelms, each is a wonderful accent to a great cup of coffee. I am joining their membership club so I can have two different 12-oz bags of different roasted-on-premises coffee sent to my house

I stopped in here again on my way through town. I always go out of my way to get coffee here if I'm traveling. Once again, the lattes did not disappoint. Great coffee, and nice selection of bagged coffee including organic. I always buy fresh roasted coffee and always grab a bag of theirs on my way though. I love the ambiance of this place too. Nice spot for locals. If I lived in the area I'd hang out here a lot. Nice people working here who are really helpful. The guy at the register went out of his way to help me find the bag of coffee that was best for me. I'll be back!

The brown butter toffee cookies are delicious. The atmosphere is open and has an upscale industrial vibe. It's a great place to meet friends and enjoy a coffee or tea!

Posted this on google reviews, but loved it so much, I gotta come to Yelp too! So beautiful inside and I loved that you can watch the roasting process! Baristas were extremely kind and helpful in suggesting a coffee for me and it was so delicious. I also appreciated their support of local business owners by displaying some of their goods. It's a must visit shop!

This place was literally my beacon in the storm, Bomb Cyclone. I stocked up for my +2 hr drive in it. What did I buy: Everything, well almost Largest size black coffee drip (always fresh), a bacon/onion scone, mushroom quiche slice, caprese panino, chocolate seasonal cookie special, cinnamon cream cheese muffin. I would have bought more not knowing how long I could be detained on the 101, but I saved some for YOU. Enjoy as I know you undoubtedly will. Cheers

My boyfriend and I were just stopping by before heading back to SoCal and decided to give it a try. We are so glad we did! They roast their own coffee in house and make their own syrups! The staff was very kind and answered all of our questions we had. We ended up buying coffee beans from them! Can't wait to try! Orange Blossom Cortado: 9/10 Lovers Lane: 9.5/10

What a beautiful coffee shop. Hot chai latte was the best I've ever had. They have a small selection of pastries and 2 or 3 breakfast sandwiches/burritos. Pricey but you know that from the look of the place. My husband got the macchiato, which they warned was "a traditional macchiato". Looked like a shot of espresso with creme I think. I'd come back. It was busy and we were on the run but looked like a nice place to relax with a hot bevvy. A+

Excellent beverages, environmentally sensitive, great place to meet in Ukiah. Seating indoors and outdoor.

Have come to Black Oak a few times while heading to Trinidad and Mendocino. Delicious coffee drinks, lovely ambiance. I especially love the espresso milkshake. A great spot.

Picked up a nitro and cap on a Sunday morning. The shop ethically was nice and service was good. I think the nitro was solid while the cap was lacking in my opinion. The cap tasted bitter and the steamed milk didn't bring out the well rounded subtle sweetness I prefer in a solid cap.

Loved the coffee, the service, and the ambience. Next time I am in the area, I will stop by again. The pastries were also great, I had a maple snickerdoodle and it was sweet, chewy and very tasty.

As previously mentioned, I ordered a matcha latte today and it was plain. I had assumed that it would come sweetened. I wished they would've asked me whether or not I wanted it sweetened. By the time I realized, I already left. 3 Stars for service. Very friendly staff!

I don't even really drink coffee, but if you love sweet treats, their mochas and lattes are killer. If I drink coffee, I usually add salt to cut the bitterness. They add salts to their drinks for balance... SUBLIME. Lavender latte: I get a little nervous about how strong the lavender is going to be in a drink or food (sometimes it's a little too astringent?), and I got a little nervous upon smelling this one, but it was perfect. Lightly sweetened, floral but not overpowering, medium-bodied frothy milk goodness topped with a sprinkle of salt. (I just had a sip of my partner's drink, but I would get this again.) Peanut butter mocha: Chocolate and peanut butter, what's not to love? It tastes exactly like a slightly thick, quality hot chocolate with a smooth and creamy/milky peanut butter, touch of coffee, topped with a sprinkle of salt. Borgia mocha: This was less sweet, just like the lavender, and wonderfully flavorful. Think of a concentrated orange zest, slightly sweet, slightly bitter, and of course with a sprinkle of salt for balance. The peanut butter was my favorite, but I would drink any of them again. I also tried their cheese and onion scone, as well as the blueberry scone. Superb! Crispy outside, soft and melt-in-your-mouth inside, almost doughy in a way that I prefer. And of course... with sprinkles of salt on the outside! Supreme! Would get either again depending on whether I'm feeling sweet or savory.

Always a great place to meet friends for a coffee or pick up a coffee and a nibble to go. Their pastries are very good and the coffee is always exceptional and the people that work there are always happy and greet you with a smile.

To a delicious morning coffee sip, this is just perfect. Service is fast and excellent always. Ambience is great and internet access is a plus! One of my favorite coffee places in town!

Great coffee! Not ho-hum in any way. Local place that roasts their own beans. They have fresh baked goods. Love their lavender oat milk lattes. Service and atmosphere is wonderful.

I have traveled a lot and I am a coffee addict. I have never in my life had better coffee than Black Oak. Whatever I get it never disappoints. Fast service. Affordable love the space. Obsessed!

Tiny parking lot but worth the effort for delicious coffee - try their coffee drinks -- I had a delicious pistachio-sesame latte in December and a rosemary-almond latte last weekend. They also heap used coffee bean burlap sacks in a box by the door, free for the taking!

Coffee is always quality, well balanced and delicious as well as all of the baked goods.

DELICIOUS! This place is what you want if you're looking for a good cuppa and moody coffee house vibes. Pastries are tasty and drinks are full bodied & not too sweet. Giving it 4 stars because they only had one GF snack option. Celiacs want treats too and I gotta rep for my boo

Excellent coffee, modern hip coffee shop. Delicious sourdough croissant! Great service. There is an adjacent parking lot- no issue with parking

Very modern and industrial like building. I have never been to this town and was surprised a coffee shop as such existed. They do their craft well here. For being a $8 coffee (oat milk adjustment), it was worth it. They make their drinks to a t. It was so good.

An oasis on State Street a few blocks north of Perkins. Worth it going into town! Coffee is delicious, beans are roasted on site.

Good seasonal drinks. Fast service. Good location. Blueberry muffin is very good from this location.

We stop here every time we are passing by Ukiah (Humboldt Co to Bay Area runs) as we absolutely LOVE their scones and coffee. Hubby likes the peanut butter mocha, but tried the s'mores latte this trip - now he likes them both! I stick to my 16oz latte, but maybe next time I'll try the lavender latte (life on the edge!). TRY THEIR SCONES TOO!

Lasy week had a Veracruz pour over which was amazing! I drank it black, which I rarely do but it was just that good. ​This week I had a dark roast drip coffee which was terrible, tasted soapy and left a film on my lips. I drank half of it anyway because I was in a hurry and needed some caffeine, but very strange and disappointing. So... three stars?

I've been ordering Black Oak coffee beans to my door for years, ever since my workplace started serving it back in 2017. As someone who drinks their coffee black, I like my coffee to have a robust flavor but maintain smoothness. Both can be said for their Black Bart and Duomo medium roasts. Finally had the opportunity to try their coffees in person since I was passing through town, I was not disappointed. Of course, the coffees were great, but so was the service. I also tried a couple of their pastries and they paired well with the coffee - fresh and tasty! Enough so that I stopped by twice in during our less than one day stay. Safe to say I'll continue my monthly coffee subscription and will gladly stop by anytime I'm in town.

Black Oak Coffee shops are amazing! They turned me into a coffee enthusiast with their smooth, rich, wide selection of coffees. The variety of foods, both savory and sweet treats are delicious! The service is great and online ordering is quick and easy. There are two locations, in Ukiah and Healdsburg. Both places offer sit-down areas to enjoy your favorite coffee/tea and treat.

Love their coffee! I found Black Oak Coffee when I saw their coffee for sale at Costco. I was intrigued when I noticed they are from Ukiah and wanted to check out their location ever since then. I was in town recently and ordered a latte and a bite to eat. Everyone was very friendly and the service was quick! I ordered a cold Spiced Brown Sugar latte with oat milk and a bacon breakfast burrito. The latte was great as expected. It wasn't overly sweet, but had a nice balance with the oat milk. The breakfast burrito was piping hot and delicious. There was plenty of egg and bacon inside and their green sauce was excellent. I also purchased a light roast bag of coffee for a gift. They offer to grind the coffee on their whole bean bags. They have their own parking lot and there is also street parking available. Their indoor seating is big and spacious. There is plenty of outdoor seating is available as well. They have a new location in Healdsburg that I want to check out.

Best coffee in town. The mocha will change your life! Don't miss the pumpkin spice latte in the fall. You will never go back to Starbucks

Outstanding Coffee place!!! just wish it's not only nestled in Ukiah. I ordered a Mayan , half the sweetness and it's delicious beyond words. The serving cup is huge I had to take it to go - a good problem lol.... If you are ever visiting this little town, make sure you swing by and try their coffee and get a few bags of coffee beans too. Now that I am back home, making my cup of coffee using the Black Oak coffee beans, I still think of my cup of coffee in BOCR Ukiah.

First time here and I loved it! The parking was a little rough because they are currently working on the road. The parking lot is a little small but the building itself is pretty big with plenty of inside and outside sitting. Their menu looks amazing with lots of options and they also sell pastries and sandwiches. The staff was friendly and efficient. I went with an Horchata latte and it was pretty good, my only regret is that I asked for it not to be to sweet but I feel like it could of been just a little sweeter. I definitely will be back to try something else.

I'm so charmed by Black Oak! Been meaning to try this place ever since one of my friends raved about them a few years back. I was in town last fall and finally made my way there. I absolutely loved the vibes here. Super friendly and inviting staff, cute little patio setup, and a delicious breakfast! I rarely ever drink coffee. And if I DO drink it, it's because I really REALLY need a pick me up. I was running on just a few hours of sleep and had planned a coastal hike in Mendocino that morning. If you know anything about the drive from Willits/Ukiah to Mendo on the 20, you know that it's a super windy road that demands your attention. Yep, def needed some coffee before that drive. Ended up stopping here for a quick little breakfast on the way there. I actually didn't intend on eating it there, but their cute little patio was so inviting and the weather was nice, so I just said what the hell and went for it. The interior was closed due to COVID, but it was so cute! I have a thing for cozy coffee shops, and Black Oak is definitely an eye catcher. Sky high ceilings and warm décor. I'm all for it! Plus, the baristas were super sweet and helpful. Ended up ordering their spiced brown sugar latte and a classic breakfast burrito with bacon. As I mentioned before, I'm not really big on coffee. So, it makes sense why I wasn't the biggest fan of the latte. I thought that maybe it would be sweeter but the coffee taste was too strong for my liking. It wasn't too bad, but I'd definitely go for one of their teas next time. What's nice about Black Oak is that they actually have a nice variety of teas on their menu too. But that breakfast burrito, though! Now that was delicious! So simple but so thoughtfully executed. It was large and filling. Perfect for something quickish before my hike. Their little patio is small but inviting. They had the tables spaced out enough for social distancing and everything appeared to be clean. I can see why this place is a local favorite. The next time that I'm in town, I will definitely be coming back here to try out one of their teas and a different breakfast pastry or sandwich.

I would rate 6 stars if I could. Their specialty Sesame Pistachio Latte was one of the best coffees I've ever had in my life. plus friendly service, relaxing hip vibe... if I were a local I'd be there every day.

Freshly roasted beans,yum. I had a vanilla latte and my husband had a macchiato.We both shared a blueberry muffin,it was so good. FYI bakery items sell out quick! The jalapeño scone is delicious

Very terrible coffee I will never go back to this joke again. Over priced. There were funny guys lookin at me while I was trying to eat my cookie
