Man, it's not that hard to make a decent espresso. I am assuming they are not paying attention to what beans they are using. The coffee is extremely bitter and has a taste of being over roasted. Quite frankly, unfortunately this is simply not good coffee.

Its a very good place to chill, I've been here like five times already! The food is amazing and the coffee as well.

Drink was delicious for a good price, comparatively. The clerk was friendly and my drink was made pretty quick! The parking availability sucks, not that they have control of that. But I enjoyed my drink and would definitely go back!

Great little coffee shop downtown. Service was great and my kid's and I enjoy stopping by there every so often to enjoy some drinks and a snack.

Best college-town coffee vibes in Merced. Two clean bathrooms and reasonably-priced depth charges. They have vegan options but not a huge overall selection (but it’s a coffee shop, c’mon).

Coffee Bandits is a locals seat down coffee place. You will see local artists, college kids and a kaleidoscope of individuals. The prices are fitting of a local coffee shop and have baked goodies and sandwiches they have some vegan/vegetarian options as well. Has local artists art on walls and is LGBTQ+ friendly. Has indoor and outdoor seating.The individuals working here are not your Starbucks/Dutchbros employees they don’t need your life story and they don’t want it. They will answer questions and then keep working until you finally order. So dont expect the most friendliest customer service but they will help because it’s their job. The coffee is good and the baristas know what they are doing. Pictures are of a vegan blueberry scone it was very good and a sugar free hazelnut latte total was $9.Vegetarian options: They have veggie optionsDietary restrictions: Vegan options availableKid-friendliness: I have taken my son here there isn’t anything to entertain a kid there but the environment is okay to where there is no glass tables or pottery so they can’t break anything. HahaWheelchair accessibility: There are no stairs and the restroom is big enough for a wheelchair.

Great workers, great drinks, great prices! Whats not to love, the workers are enjoyable to order from and are helpful, my one gripe is that the matcha can be somewhat inconsistent but their other drinks are more than perfect! Almost no wait too!
