Packard’s is a Ramona institution that nourishes the town with wonderful coffee and baked treats! They have amazing lattes, smoothies, and scones!Their chocolate scones are honestly some of the best I’ve ever had in my life. They dissolve in your mouth and are perfectly balanced!You’ve got to try Packard’s whether your a local or are just passing through.

I highly recommend the Alaskan mocha (add a little hazelnut if you like it sweet). Say yes to whipped cream! And the Mexican mocha is also fantastic.

I have never been lucky enough to find a coffee shop has been part of the small-town community for over 27 years. This tiny little coffee shop offers speed of service that you would find any big city and I just absolutely had to have my favorite coffee alternative the ice chocolate milk with peppermint syrup the sweetness of which kind of made me wanna order a bucket size version of this drink it was so good.This shop offers a rare opportunity to enjoy a really good coffee and fantastic street side seating. The other interesting thing is is that you can actually text your order in so if you’re in a hurry and you’re part of this community why not text them? Show up five minutes later and your drink is readyI was very impressed with what I got here I could recommend this place enough it’s so quaint and charming and the town is so amazing I’ll probably come back here every chance I get.Stop by and try one of the many wonderful flavors that they have, they even offer sugarfree flavors for people that have dietary issues.

Really yummy coffee but seeing as I hadn’t been there in at least 10years the service was more then a little disappointing… I love the idea of texting our order in but until we were aware of this option two breakfast orders shouldn’t have taken over an hour! The three stars was for how yummy the coffee was!! And luckily we were staying close by so we were able to leave and come back.. just a little disappointed in the customer service side! We will give it another try and update another review!!!

The coffee is pretty damn good, but the lady thats always there(owner maybe?) is really....off-putting. 0 customer service skills, and always seems to be super crabby and just barely hiding it.always seems dead there. too bad, used to be busy all the time.youd think theyd try a little harder with a starbucks(🤮) right down the street now.

Great little spot. Came here to grab a few homemade pastries 🥮 for a family brunch we were having at our ranch, and a morning cappuccino. Left with some cinnamon rolls, strawberry filled croissant 🥐, and a few muffins. More than we had planned simplybecause it all looked good. And it all was good! Everyone enjoyed the pastries, and we enjoyed visiting Packards. The shopkeep was very friendly and quick despite being the only one there, hustling through orders like a boss. The coffees were on point too, well balanced with the milk and strong. We will be back next time we’re in town for sure.

The chai I ordered was delicious! I knew I had to try it when I saw that they brew their own chai. The breakfast sandwich was fresh and hearty. I can’t wait to try the crepes in the future!

Love Packards! Their food is delicious, coffee drinks are much better than you will find at those chain coffee spots... and you will get to support a family owned and operated business ♡♡♡

I hadnt gone here in 15 years, I was hoping they were still making it happen. Ordered 2 bagels for the road, it took 20 mins, we got cold bagels, 2 plastic knives, and a small side of cream cheese in a bag. Being from Ramona I assume this is how you do outsiders, but that doesnt help business. Toast, spread, send people on their way happy. You were not busy that day, we tip more than the order total usually when we visit new spots, but this was a sad experience.

I love love LOVE this coffee shop! Nora is amazing! Weve only been during the lockdown period, and they have been fantastic at still keeping things moving. They have done a few DIY cookie decorating kits and we took advantage of the Cinco De Mayo ones. The kids had a lot of fun with it and the cookies were delicious! Weve had a few coffee drinks and pastries that have been fantastic. We also ordered our sons birthday cake and Nora certainly delivered! It was one of the yummiest cakes weve had and the decorations were on point! Even if youre driving through, order a coffee! Its far tastier then the big chain coffees and you can still text in your order so itll be ready for you to pick up! We are looking forward to all the goodies that are whipped up here!

Review №19

Im new in town, and that can be tough, especially in Ramona where its a small town feel and everybody seems to already know each other, but Nora and the folks at Packards have made me feel so right at home and welcome from the very beginning! Friendly and good service, clean and the breakfast sandwich is delicious! They make their own chai tea so its not something out of a mix or a box. And it is pretty funny to have a TARDIS out in front LOL.

This is the BEST coffee shop! Their scones are FANTASTIC. I had Vietnamese iced coffee yesterday. Sooo good! Why the heck would anyone in Ramona go anywhere else for coffee, breakfast sandwiches or pastries?! And I havent even mentioned the Tardis...I wish they were in my hometown!

I have been going here for years. Nora is always there with a story or antidote and the friendly face that gives me my coffee. During this Pandemic there are times when she has to be there 7 days a week and long hours as many of our businesses to insure that everyone near and far feel that Ramona welcome. This time has not been easy on our little town businesses.I believe in Shopping Local.We all come together and support each other. We want those that come through Ramona to know our town is a stop and stay awhile town!

Review №32

Great, family owned, business_ which is loved by locals, as well as tourists/visitors.Crepes are delicious. ..until they run out.Outdoor dining/socializing patio is cozy, kid friendly, as well as service dog friendly. They will bring a bowl of water for your dog while you enjoy Ramona Main Street ambiance. There is also a book exchange mini library disguised as a oversized phone booth...However, the lilbook area does face the Main Street. Parent supervision as a responsible adult would be great for good business continued...all good. :)
