Preservation Coffee & Tea

Came and got a coffee ☕ because apparently downtown Modesto doesn't really have much going on at 9am on a Sunday morning 😕 but if it didn't, we wouldn't have found this cool little spot. Has a nice upper deck to hang out and do whatever on (including sleep) I assume the owner or manager are Star Wars fans. Live long and prosper 🖖

Went here for the first time with a couple of friends today and it was really nice. Staff was friendly and easy to talk to and all of our drinks were quickly made and delicious. The vibe of the shop was cute, with a little box tv and a wall of VHS tapes. Their was both seating up and down stairs as well as outside and yet they were almost all full (tells you how popular the place must be). Highly recommend if you wanna good quality cup of coffee to start your day.

I haven't had a true latte before, so I decided to have this place be my first latte experience. Did not disappoint surprisingly smooth and creamy foam. The server made a beautiful design. They had 2 outdoor tables, which were nice until 2 pm until you had full sun.

My favorite coffee of this particular road trip. Funky little spot with all local vibe. Well made cortado and was made to feel welcome.

A local business I love and support. I recommend the Serrano Mocha. A little bit of spice with that coffee and chocolate.
They have seating above the bar up the stairs.
Very nice place to relax and see local friends.
The realtor that placed a Starbucks just down the street should be ashamed. Support local business.

Absolutely fantastic latte! Baristas were very helpful and knew what they're doing. House-made lavender syrup and beautiful latte art with the perfect amount and texture of foam, and the music and atmosphere def passed the vibe check ... Thank you for an incredible experience!

Sooooo good!!
We had the Havana and Cafe Brule - delicious!
Wonderful, friendly service and the drinks were ready in no time - enjoyed them in the small, upstairs seating area. Downstairs and outside seating are available as well.

I got a double shot macchiato and my wife had gotten the espresso. The first sip and you get all the coffee flavor and it is strong. Not a huge coffee drinker but this will definitely wake you up. Taste good too

This was suggested by a friend for a meeting place. The time was 11am in a Sunday.

The inside is a bit small and conversations if hushed may not be heard at times, other customers may talk loudly, which may make it difficult to speak to your companions.

There are (4) tables that seat abouta total of 14 persons.

You have to walk through the front counter and prep area to use the bathroom; which was spotless.

The product was awesome. She had a Zephyr, I had the Coronado. Both were deliciousness in a cup.

The service was good and the wait was brief; we will definitely be visiting again.

Very cute local shop with an amazing variety of customized options! I got the zephyr latte (matcha with almond milk, ginger and agave) but would love to try some of the other options next time.

Very good! I have had the carpenter and the contractor from here and they were both delicious. Both had strong notes of chocolate but the coffee still powered through. Will be back to try the rest of their menu or to have another carpenter/contractor.

They make their own spice mix for the chai latte. The red velvet cake and the almond cake were really good! And not too sweet either.

Super nice folks, great drinks. Carrot cake and lemon merengue tart were amazing! Funky bathroom situation and cool upstairs seating - part of the charm.

Best coffee in town! Friendly staff as well - you can tell they enjoy the craft. Small space, but has a lofted seating area as well. Great stop for the art nights (every 3rd Thursday).

The barista was great and delivered on a couple of excellent coffees. Bathrooms are behind the counter if needed, just ask. ☕

This place is so queer (in a good way) and it makes me feel very welcome. They are super quick, always nice and not too expensive.

This is a no frills coffee shop, nice ambient. My go-to is the clubhouse mocha (iced) quick and friendly service and in a convenient location. Really good coffee, would recommend.

Nice small cute place. They focus on each custom coffee , loved it. Tried latte. I like cinnamon and it was great.

Great local coffee shop with good vibes. You can tell the locals like it and it's a nice place for some to just relax. The coffee was great and we even got a free snack from one if the vendors that sells her baked goods in there. Overall it was a great experience and I'd recommend it to anyone.

The atmosphere is very chill. I love all the cassette tapes and the choices of coffee. I will definitely be coming back.
