Day-O Espresso

Cool spot for a quick drink. I am glad they are around. The girls are always nice and friendly.

Don’t get me wrong: I love the Columbia Day-​O. But I live closer to Jamestown, and it’s a more attainable stop when I’m looking for a quick stop on my morning commute. I won’t make that mistake again.
The Jamestown Day-​O has delicious (and not overly sweet) raspberry smoothies, but the WORST service! The «barista» with the blonde bob haircut was so extremely rude, she ruined my entire morning. When I ordered, I asked for no whipped cream on my smoothie, since dairy interferes with my medications. She put extra. When I pointed out the mistake she rolled her eyes, scoffed and mumbled something under her breath. Took the smoothie, scraped some of the whipped cream off, and slammed it on the counter. When I went to pay, she snatched my card up and didn’t even give a receipt before slamming the window in my face.
I will not return here!

Always super good! Love all the girls too :) they’re so quick and sweet. They all care about the customers

Day-​O has always been awesome and consistent! In all the years we have been going there we have never been disappointed!

Stopped in for Latte’s before our visit to Columbia. OMG such awesome Latte’s! Better than Starbucks! The service could have been a little bit more friendly.

Disappointed in the poor quality beans and watery coffee. As bad as overly burnt acidic beans are nothing compared to my wife’s corn syrup filled torani flavored latte that we just threw away bc of the sweetness.
If you expect to taste espresso in a drink and not just a bunch of syrup then just drive on to Starbucks where you can at least taste the espresso in the drink.

They now carry locally baked gluten free muffins that are delicious. They could fool a wheat water any day.

The best thing about this business isn’t the incredibly delicious smoothies (MARIONBERRY, omg…), nor is it the awesome blended coffee frappes. It’s the fact that they’re a local, family-​owned business who actively contribute to the community. They give away tons of smoothies to the local schools for graduations and they’re at a variety of events. A lot of the profits go to causes like orphans in Russia or (recently) a local 3-​year-​old girl with cancer. It’s cool to know that your money is going to a good cause.
All that aside, their drinks are great. The girls who work there are always nice and it just seems like an overall happy place. I miss it BADLY since I’ve moved away!

The blended mochas melt too soon and taste like chocolate milk. Need a better recipe. NO coffee flavor to the mochas at all. Basically you’re drinking cold chocolate milk with or without ice.

WOW! My Hubby and I stop at Day-​O every Saturday after our W.W. Meetings (I know) We are always so pleased with everything they have! From their coffee drinks, smoothies, teas… and they even make me a special blended Italian Ice! So refreshing! We are going to get everything on their menu to try it all!!! The drive thru is so convenient and fast! The girls are all so nice and friendly!!! Did I mention their prices… Very reasonable!!!
Goodbye Starbucks… Helllllloooo Daayyyyy-​O!!! (my hubby even has a song he sings when we go) Day-​O has two «forever customers»!!! Oh Boy… I need to go ToDay-​O!!!

I wrote my previous review just after moving here… and after a-many-a-day-o…they’ve never disappointed…6am or 2pm… Jamestown or Mono Vista… the service is the same, always cheerful, welcoming and awesome.
You can’t help but love a business that consistently gives back to the community (even if they don’t promote that they are) and that’s totally local. :) Thanks Day-​O!

I love all their drinks. I have tried most everything on the menu and its great!

Day-​O is a drive-​thru coffee house with locations in Jamestown, Downtown Sonora, and Mono Vista, none of which correspond to the address Unilocal shows.
So if you can find one of the locations and are thirsty I think you will find Day-​O convenient with a pleasant staff. They have mostly espresso drinks, frappes, and smoothies. Unfortunately I find the smoothies overly sweet and lacking actual fruit and the coffee poor tasting. The other espresso drinks are OK and I like the chai.
I have to admit its personal taste. I don’t like sweet drinks and there’s a heavy emphasis on them here. The thought of an Italian soda PLUS peach syrup AND whipped cream makes me gag. So I go for the coffee drinks and I find them lacking. I still feel I should give three stars because of the convenience factor and good service. If they would just put more focus on the quality of their coffee I would be a regular customer.

The map coresponds to the office location and the other reviews reflect the downtown Sonora location on Washington St. Friendly staff easy in and out location going North or South.

good lord I miss Day-​O so badly. In high school this was a morning or lunchtime standby (without horrible traffic through downtown, you can generally drive from the high school to Day-​O and back during the lunch period). In college we actually contemplated driving from the Bay Area home to Sonora just for Day-​O. It’s that good. The Tahitian Vanilla blended frozen frappé is seriously one of the best things you’ll ever taste. Really. If you’re in the area, do it.
