Bistro Espresso

When in Arnold and he want some decent food. Try bistro espresso. Variety of beers on top if you're coming for dinner. When you eat here, you support the local economy.

So far everything I have ordered on the menu has been awesome. Even their breakfast burritos are soo good you want to eat yourself into a food coma. Their coffee is great. I always order their Salted Caramel coffee

Wonderful tri tip grilled sandwich, lively good eats

Definitely worth having breakfast here. Perfect location in Arnold CA.

Just a perfect place to sit with your friends.
The food is DELICIOUS! Biggest portions ever. Coffee is really good! Workers are the sweetest. The atmosphere is just fabulous✨
100% satisfied 🤩

Spent the weekend in the area and stopped here twice for coffee, love the feel of the restaurant, very relaxed, good food, and good coffee!

My friends and I camp every year during the end of summer; this year we went to Calaveras Big Tree State Park (which was amazing btw lol) Anyways, we usually get food together on the way home at a restaurant nearby wherever we camp that year. This year we went to Bistro Espresso (which is 6 minutes driving from Calaveras) and it was one of the best post-camp meal I've had so far. The first thing we noticed was how absolutely adorable the place looked, it has such a warm vibe to it. We were also a pretty big party (11 people) and they accommodated us with no problem. We were hoping for breakfast, but arrived during lunch hours which wasn't a disappointment at all bc the food was awesome regardless. All of our food came pretty quickly especially for how many people we had, and everything tasted so good. We all ordered a bunch since we had been camping and it was our first meal of the day, and there wasn't a single bad dish. We all passed around bites of whatever we ordered and it was all good. We could not stop gushing about how tasty everything was, everything even down to the ketchup (which was made in house). The staff was super sweet and even suggested we move around our seating situation to something more comfortable. Grateful that we picked this place on a whim to end our annual camping trip, it was the perfect cherry on top. Thank you for having us Bistro Espresso 😊

Fast and excellent customer service. Absolutely kicking coffee. I loved their smoothies too. They are made of frozen fruit and yogurt (not artificially flavored). Nice vegetarian options for lunch :-)

Good coffee, and chai tea. Good selection of drinks and food. We visited two times in our 4 days in town. Good service and our server was friendly. We didn’t interact with other staff. Will try their dinners next visit.

Love the food. Very tasty! Most definitely worth the wait & price. Lots of delicious different items to choose from.

Fantastic ambiance for being able to have a conversation. Good coffee, and enjoyable food! For you fry connoisseurs, the fries were perfectly crispy & soft. Will be back next time in area!

Excellent food! Comfortable, casual ambience! The BBQ was great and the salads are, too. We'll make this place a regular spot, and are looking forward to going back for live music on the outdoor stage tomorrow. I've attached a pic of my 8oz blue cheese burger for reference. 😎

Great food and the most amazing customer service! The bun on my daughters burger was a bit over toasted and they immediately took it back and fixed it. The food was yummy and we will definitely stop by again, maybe next time we'll get there in time to catch some of the breakfast options.

What a gem! Great little coffee/breakfast place. Drip Coffee was strong with good flavor. They have med roast too for those who prefer it that way. We went for morning coffee run and brough party of 11 back for breakfast. Great selection of breakfast items. (they were smoking tritip for weekend specials - tritip Philly omelet) pan cakes were amazing and I am more of an eggs and stake breakfast guy (they have that too...). Shot story long, 11 of us promptly ordered and found seating easily (they have a couple of large tables). Food was fantastic, no complaints. Portions were generous. Staff was very friendly. It's a smaller place like many in Arnold but they have it laid out efficiently and our meals came quickly in spite of how busy it was. Seemed like a lot of locals frequent the place... Had to throw all the stars at this place.. Must try!

This place has really good food, and great coffee. Everyone here is friendly and nice. It's a great place to settle in and relax with friends. Also they have Ice cream, shakes, and smoothies. Great atmosphere and music on Saturdays & Tuesdays in the summer. I will definitely bring all my friends and family here for lunch when they visit.

Cute spot to stop for lunch. Food is decent, service is friendly and I loved the deck. Caveat is they struggled to handle allergy requests. I think it’s just a training issue? But if you don’t have food restrictions it’s a solid lunch spot.

Clean, well-managed, efficient, and family-friendly restaurant with ice cream bar across the lot under the same ownership. Both locales satisfied three food-thrill-seeking kids and capped off a great day-trip jaunt into the mountains with relaxed atmosphere and a comfortable setting that speaks well of Arnold, California!

The new location (cedar shopping center) is great! Just stopped for a drink and a donut after the Arnold Firecracker race. Lots of seating indoors and out. There’s a kitchen for food and a bar for beers and wine.

In a cold winter morning, when every restaurant is closed, you go to this only open restaurant and it SURPRISEs you. A cozy place with a friendly staff and good food. What else do you want to start your day?

Excellent food. Best breakfast burrito I've ever had!
