    Designed by @emilywilderdesigns & coffee by SacTown’s Ryan Harden. This is great addition to the artist’s lofts. Get the Apple hand pie or the savory sausage breakfast sandwich... also a secret menu ;)

    I'm a fan of Temple Coffee. This is their newest Sacramento location on K St. Pennies on the floor. Open design. More contemporary-industrial, like the old Nordstrom cafe back in the day.

    Game changer. Aesthetic. Culinary precision. CARNIVORES will enjoy. Great for groups (share meat platters), dates or just a cool spot to sneak to the bar, grab a burger (only available at bar) and drink. Desserts are ALWAYS on point thanks to Chef Matt Masera.
