California Coffee Republic - Moorpark

The only place in Moorpark where you can get actually good espresso! (Sorry Carrara's).I'm someone who is really particular about coffee and find most coffee shops to make pretty mediocre coffee, but this place really knows what they are doing. I'd highly recommend trying the cortado.

So good I went for the first time today and the pumpkin ice latte was so so good !!!! Highly recommend this place I think I'm addicted

Best latte I've had, smooth, creamy and strong without any bitterness. I get sugar free vanilla latte with almond or coconut milk. I love it and I want one now it better to support this nice family business as well.

I was in the area passing through for a week and found this little gem in the strangest of locations. Glad I did. Amazing people and incredible coffee. Was really impressed with their roast and coffee. If you’re into top level coffee roasting and you like quality coffee then this is your spot if you’re in the area.

If I was rating The California Coffee Republic based solely on the coffee and food alone, I would give it a strong 4 out of 5 stars. Rating only on the service, management and organization, I would give only a 1 out of 5, being very generous. The California Coffee Republic has many young workers, no observable management or organization at all. My best friend and I spend one chosen afternoon a week to meet for a relaxing, adult moment of coffee and conversation. We did not find this at The California Coffee Republic. What we did find was a great amount of choas and disorganization. A young child, around the age of 5 or 6 was running in and out of the back of the coffee shop amongst the food cooking and preparation. At 1pm when we arrived, there were no pastries or scones left for the rest of the day, even though they did not close for many hours to come. After ordering, my cell number was taken so I could be texted when the food was ready. When I received the text, I went inside and stood waiting. I stood there for approximately 10 minutes and finally asked the young man making the coffees where I pick up my food. He told me to wait and someone would bring it out. I stood there another 5 minutes waiting and becoming increasingly irritated. Another worker came in from the outside, and I asked her where I get my food. She also told me to wait where I was. While I was standing there I heard another customer, who has also been standing there awhile ask where they get their food. In anger I finally walked outside and my friend went inside to wait. She also waited almost 15 minutes for our food. Not ok. While my friend was standing in there waiting, after I had already given up, California Coffee Republic called my phone with a reminder that the food was ready This entire experience is very unfortunate because the coffees were really good and the pizza was delicious.
