The Pour Choice

Celebrated my sisters birthday brunch here at Pour Choice, I have to say this is my favorite spot in Sacramento area. I had an avocado toast with their 6 min egg and had all the toppings that I could add, it was so so good! The cinnamon bun had a wonderful taste, I could taste the cardamon in it. Also, I tried the shark board, amazing pear jam with a great selection of the cheese and prosciutto. Thank you so much for such a wonderful experience! I want to have a reason to come again, soon 😊

Stopped in for coffee before a hike in the area & ordered the specialty old fashioned bourbon coffee. Cute place, great atmosphere & baristas, & the drinks were delicious

I was done with work for the day and just felt like It was time for a coffee.
The Pour Choice was on my “To Try List” and this was a perfect timing.
They’re located close to downtown Auburn just a minute or two off the freeway.
The drive to the coffee shop is nice but one issue is parking…. which is off the main street and limited but lucky me I found one within a min with about 2 min walking distance.
The location has a very nice vibe and a antique feel to it. You walk up some stairs and voilà… you get to The Pour Choice
Today I tried Honey Latte and taste wise it was really good. Cashier and barista welcomed me as soon as I walked in.
Very solid coffee place overall.
Location 4 stars
Coffee 5 stars
Price 4 stars

Staying a long weekend in Auburn, I was worried I wouldn't find an interesting coffee shop as I usually enjoy. I was very wrong, "The Pour Choice" is an excellent coffee shop, right up with the top of those that I frequent.

It is in a beautiful location on the historic Sacramento Street in downtown Auburn. It has both a full service coffee bar as well as a wine bar for tasting and craft beers.

I had a regular mocha, it was very tasty complete with well done latte art. They had a nice list of different flavored lattes which I'll be sure to try on my next visit. The loaded banana bread with peanut butter and banana was exquisite and surprisingly not overly filling as I was worried it would be.

They have plenty of interesting breakfast and lunch foods or just afternoon snacks to enjoy. It was hard restraining myself from trying more of them on my morning visit, but I'll certainly be back so that I can get a taste of many of these.

There is plenty of seating, deceptively so - I initially thought it was only downstairs and in front of the shop, but was pleased to discover that there is more seating in the back as well as an upstairs loft seating area, upstairs side patio and a porch up above with a view looking out onto the main street - All of these were great options for enjoying a nice view or people watching.

The service was excellent despite there being many people enjoying their morning coffee and breakfast, the baristas all managed to keep up with demand with quality coffees and foods.

A surprising little bonus was a little flower shop set up in the front which was nice and added to the atmosphere.

Although this place is a bit pricy, nothing beats the atmosphere here. Coffee is absolutely amazing, my go-to is a hot vanilla latte in the winter and then the iced version for the summer. They also decorate for the holidays and seasons which makes it feel super cozy☕

Was in town visiting and met up with some people to catch up! It was the most perfect spot! They have balcony seating, outdoor area with more seats and indoor. Loved that they had a wine selection as well. Super cute spot to get work done or just hang around. The staff is sweet and it can get busy so be patient. Drinks will be called to pick up and food is delivered!

I liked the place absolute. You can sit both inside and outside - much space. Beautiful art in coffee. I took my fav lavender latte. They have toasts and banana bread. And different drinks

We travel with our pup even coming up to Auburn and visit The Pour Choice every time we come up! The service is great, the food and drinks are yummy, and there's a really nice atmosphere. We sit outside because we have a dog, you'd think it would be miserable during the 100° day but, it wasn't! They have a huge swamp cooler that cools the outside area nicely. It was so nice to have a place where we could enjoy food and drinks and not sweat to death!!! ... Also... You have to get the pretzels 🤤

What a hidden gem in Auburn. The coffee specialty drinks come out at exactly the right pace. The entire place has a great feel and the folks servicing are very nice. Drink makers are artisits and there is upstairs and downstairs seating. Overall a great experience.

Absolutely the best espresso in Auburn. High quality beans and high quality extraction. Attention to detail. I didn’t order any food, but saw some beautiful, avocado toast going past me. This place is top notch.

Fun place with lots of character. Coffee is very good as is the food. Plenty of seating upstairs but some of the seating is very uncomfortable. Highly recommend.

Swanky & cool spot. Shop was pretty crowded for a Sunday afternoon. I was probably 3rd in line to order so not unreasonable. Staff was very friendly. Lots of fun retail…makes for great small gifts or stocking stuffers. Ordered iced caramel latte. Baristas seemed pretty chatty with each other in case you’re in a hurry and don’t have the time to wait 25 minutes for them to prep your coffee order.

Wife and I drive out of our way to visit as much as we can. The coffee and avocado toast are amazing. Serves adult beverages, and even has a florist if you find yourself in trouble with your wife. Highly recommend.

Stopped here in Auburn on our drive from Sacramento to Lake Tahoe. Super neat little mining town with a rich history and then this great cafe spot! The coffee, breakfast sandwhich, and avocado toast we had were superb. Loved the layout of this place with the additional upstairs seating, side yard, and balcony, plenty of options. It's counter order and they bring out any food to your table.

They have a sort of open concept kitchen so you can watch the food prep. The place has a lot of character and would definitely visit again along this route on a future trip.

Great place and great coffee. This is the place we often recommend to our clients and friends who visit us. If you’re a visitor and looking for something better than Starbucks, you’ll love this coffee place. Oh, and they do have great food!

Unique, small, high quality coffee/beer/wine water hole (with a small kitchen as well). They have a large selection of beer on draft, also beer in a can for the patio. The outdoor area gets some sun but also has a lot of shade as well. It’s perfect for dogs! We can speak for their coffee: it’s high quality. They support a local microroaster in Auburn area and the it’s all light roast (for those who care about high quality beans). This is THE pit stop on the way to or from Tahoe. Thank me later. Cheers mate🤙🏼

Woo hoo I get to be the 1000 review!!!! Hi Melinda, Jordan and crew! Daren and I say hi. We love your place. It’s amazing thanks for keeping Auburn yummy and classy. I love everything on your menu.

Very nice latte called old fashioned and very nice service and the view is amazing, quiet, Cozy and couple-ish! 🌿☕😌

This place is incredible. Met the owners slinging beans at the Tahoe city farmers market and have been meaning to use it as a pit stop when driving up to the mountains...but after finally coming here it's going to be a must-stop! Amazing indoor and outdoor seating, creative drinks, it's fantastic.

Who doesn't love a good pun? Who loves beer? And likes food? Easy answer: this Local Guide.
The (sort of) young staff were great. They were very helpful with the draft beer selection and describing the menu items. The salads were a delicious dinner on a hot summer night.
I was really happy to find this remarkable place. I'm staying in a different part of town and wanted a little walk and found The Pour Choice by searching for "beer" on Google Maps.
I'll definitely return the next time I'm in Auburn.
