Union Coffee Club sits at 1474 Myers St in downtown Oroville, inside the Historical City of Paris Building, and it held its grand opening on April 25, 2025. Olson House Coffee keeps its cafe at 2525 Feather River Blvd, south of the downtown grid. Those two addresses are the fastest way into Oroville coffee, and both belong to Oroville, not to Chico up the highway.


Oroville is the Butte County seat, with an ACS 2023 population of 19,855, a downtown built around Myers and Montgomery Streets, and Lake Oroville close enough to bring visitors through town. Its coffee follows its streets. Myers Street holds the downtown end, Feather River Blvd holds the south end, and Montgomery and Huntoon Streets fill in the blocks between.


This hub walks those streets in order. It names shops only by where they are and when they opened, because that is what a reader standing on a corner actually needs. Learn four street names and two boulevards and you can find every coffee counter in this city without a list.


Myers Street and the City of Paris Building

Start downtown at 1474 Myers St. That is Union Coffee Club, and the building around it carries a name older than the coffee: the Historical City of Paris Building. Explore Butte County, the county's tourism office, describes the shop as part of Downtown Oroville and places it in that historic building. The grand opening came on April 25, 2025, so the counter is still new to a downtown that has been pouring coffee on other corners for years.


A named building does something for a downtown that a numbered suite cannot. People give directions by it. They remember it after the tenants change. When a coffee counter opens inside a building locals already know by name, the address turns into a landmark almost overnight, and a newcomer can find it by asking anyone on the sidewalk where the City of Paris Building is.


Myers Street is also a practical starting point for a visitor. Oroville City Hall sits a few blocks away at 1735 Montgomery Street, and the downtown district, which the Downtown Oroville association promotes for small town charm, dining, shopping and events, is compact enough to cover on foot. Park once near Myers Street and the rest of the downtown coffee is a walk, not a drive.


The address itself is 1474 Myers St, Oroville, CA 95965. Write that down before you go. In a downtown this small, the difference between Myers Street and Montgomery Street is the difference between two different coffee stops, and both are worth the walk.


Feather River Blvd, South of Downtown

Head south out of the downtown grid and the coffee moves onto Feather River Blvd, a working boulevard rather than a walking street. Olson House Coffee keeps its cafe at 2525 Feather River Blvd, the address Explore Butte County gives for it. That is the south pole of Oroville coffee, a few minutes by car from Myers Street.


Feather River Blvd carries more than one kind of coffee stop, and the street numbers tell you the order you will meet them. Lots A Java runs a drive thru window at 1661 Feather River Blvd. Dutch Bros runs one of its two Oroville stands at 2366 Feather River Blvd. Olson House Coffee's cafe sits at 2525. A driver working south along the boulevard passes a local drive thru window, a national chain stand and a sit down cafe inside roughly nine hundred street numbers.


That mix is the point of this street. Downtown is for walking and lingering. Feather River Blvd is for a cup on the way somewhere, or a stop that fits between errands, and it gives the south side of the city its own coffee rhythm instead of making everyone drive back to Myers Street.


A drive thru window and a sit down cafe answer different questions. The window at 1661 Feather River Blvd is built for the commuter who has ten minutes and a steering wheel. The cafe at 2525 is built for the person who wants to stop the car and stay a while. Having both on one boulevard means the south side does not have to choose between speed and a seat, and neither format needs to pretend to be the other.


All three of those Feather River Blvd addresses share the 95965 ZIP code with downtown, which is a useful reminder that this is one city stretched along a river, not a string of separate towns. The boulevard is long, but it is still Oroville the whole way.


Montgomery Street and Huntoon Street

Back downtown, Montgomery Street is the civic street, with Oroville City Hall at 1735 Montgomery Street and another downtown coffee counter a short walk up the block. The Downtown Oroville district keeps its own place pages for its businesses, so a visitor planning a downtown morning can find what is open before walking over from Myers Street or Huntoon Street, both a short stroll away inside the same district.


Montgomery Street is also civic Oroville. City Hall sits at 1735 Montgomery Street, so the same street carries the council chambers, the permit counter and a downtown coffee room at 2040. Anyone with business at City Hall has a coffee stop on the same street, close enough to reach on foot before or after an appointment.


One more downtown street belongs on the map. JC Java sits at 1574 Huntoon St, inside the Downtown Oroville district, and the district describes it as a counter serving coffee and tea alongside sandwiches, breakfast items and baked goods. That makes it the downtown stop to remember when a coffee run is also a lunch run.


Put Myers, Montgomery and Huntoon together and downtown Oroville has three coffee addresses within a short walk of City Hall. None of them needs a car between them. That is the part of the city where a visitor can park, walk and try more than one counter in a morning.


Oro Dam Blvd. E. and the Chain Stands

The second Dutch Bros stand in Oroville sits at 2340 Oro Dam Blvd. E., and it carries a different ZIP code, 95966, from the downtown and Feather River Blvd addresses. Dutch Bros' own city page lists exactly two Oroville stands, this one and the one at 2366 Feather River Blvd, and both are drive thru pickup windows.


Chain stands are part of the honest map of any small city, and leaving them off would make the independent picture look emptier or fuller than it is. In Oroville the chain footprint is two drive thru windows on two different roads. That is useful geography for a reader, not a contest with the independents.


Oro Dam Blvd. E. matters for a different reason. The stand sits well outside the downtown grid, and the 95966 ZIP code on its address is a quick signal that this is a different part of Oroville from the downtown blocks and Feather River Blvd. A reader who meets the chain window there first still has the independents a short drive away, on Myers Street downtown and on Feather River Blvd to the south.


Oroville also has tea and boba counters, and they are good at what they do. They are a different category from the coffee shops on this map, and this hub leaves them to their own coverage rather than folding them in to make a longer list.


A Scene of About Five

Count the independent coffee shops on Myers Street, Feather River Blvd, Montgomery Street and Huntoon Street and Oroville comes to about five. Union Coffee Club, Olson House Coffee, JC Java, Lots A Java and a counter on Montgomery Street are the stops a local already knows. Five is a small number, but every one of them sits on a real street you can drive to this afternoon.


Five independents in a city of 19,855 people is a real scene, not a gap. A resident who wants a locally run counter instead of a chain stand has a choice of formats: a downtown room in a named historic building, a cafe on the south boulevard, a downtown counter on Montgomery Street, a coffee and lunch stop on Huntoon Street, and a drive thru window at 1661 Feather River Blvd.


Spread matters as much as count. Three of the five independents, at 1474 Myers St, 2040 Montgomery St and 1574 Huntoon St, sit inside the downtown district within a walk of City Hall. The other two, at 1661 and 2525 Feather River Blvd, cover the south side. That split means neither end of the city is left without a local counter, and a resident on either side can reach one without crossing town.


It is worth being plain about what this scene is not. It is not Chico. Chico's ACS 2023 population is 102,032, more than five times Oroville's, and Sacramento's is 524,802. Chico's cafes deserve their own coverage and have it. Oroville's coffee does not need them borrowed in to feel complete.


The same goes for the smaller towns nearby. Paradise, with an ACS 2023 population of 6,793, has its own story. This hub keeps to the city limits of Oroville, the Butte County seat, and the coffee that actually sits on its streets.


Why the Streets Matter More Than a List

A ranked list flattens five shops into five interchangeable names. The streets do the opposite. Myers Street tells you there is a downtown counter inside a building with its own name. Feather River Blvd tells you the south side has its own cafe and a drive thru window. Montgomery Street tells you a cafe sits a short walk from City Hall. Huntoon Street tells you where coffee and lunch meet downtown.


That is also how people in Oroville give directions. Nobody says the third best coffee shop. They say the place on Montgomery by City Hall, or the one in the City of Paris Building, or the window on Feather River Blvd. A good coffee guide should talk the way the town talks.


A visitor with a free morning can use this map as a route. Start at 1474 Myers St, walk to 2040 Montgomery St and 1574 Huntoon St, then drive south to 2525 Feather River Blvd on the way out of downtown. Four stops, three streets and one boulevard, all inside a city of under twenty thousand people.


For an Oroville coffee shop owner, the lesson is simple. The details a reader needs most are your street, your building, your hours and the year you opened, written down in your own words where people and search tools can find them.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where is Union Coffee Club located, and when did it open?

Union Coffee Club is at 1474 Myers St in downtown Oroville, CA 95965, inside the Historical City of Paris Building. It held its grand opening on April 25, 2025, inside a building locals already knew by name. Oroville City Hall at 1735 Montgomery Street is a few blocks away, so the shop is an easy walk from the rest of the downtown district and a natural first stop on a morning coffee route.


Where is Olson House Coffee's cafe in Oroville?

Explore Butte County gives the cafe address as 2525 Feather River Blvd, Oroville, CA 95965, south of the downtown grid. That puts it on the same boulevard as the Lots A Java drive thru window at 1661 Feather River Blvd and the Dutch Bros stand at 2366 Feather River Blvd. From Myers Street downtown it is a short drive south, and it makes a sensible last stop for a visitor heading out of town.


Where is JC Java in Oroville?

JC Java sits at 1574 Huntoon St, inside the Downtown Oroville district. The district describes it as serving coffee and tea alongside sandwiches, breakfast items and baked goods, so it is the downtown stop to remember when a coffee run is also a lunch run. Huntoon Street is within walking distance of Myers Street, Montgomery Street and City Hall at 1735 Montgomery Street.


How many independent coffee shops does Oroville have?

Oroville has about five independent coffee stops: Union Coffee Club at 1474 Myers St, Olson House Coffee at 2525 Feather River Blvd, JC Java at 1574 Huntoon St, the Lots A Java drive thru window at 1661 Feather River Blvd and another downtown counter on Montgomery Street. For a city with an ACS 2023 population of 19,855, that is a real and varied scene spread across four streets, with three of the five inside a short walk of City Hall.


Is Oroville's coffee scene part of Chico's?

No. Oroville is the Butte County seat and a separate city, with an ACS 2023 population of 19,855 compared with Chico's 102,032 and Sacramento's 524,802. Chico's cafes have their own coverage. Oroville's coffee sits on its own streets, from 1474 Myers St downtown to 2525 Feather River Blvd on the south side, and this guide keeps to the addresses inside Oroville itself rather than padding the map with a larger neighbor.


What street connects Oroville City Hall and downtown coffee?

Montgomery Street. Oroville City Hall is at 1735 Montgomery Street, with a downtown coffee counter a short walk up the same street. Union Coffee Club at 1474 Myers St and JC Java at 1574 Huntoon St are both a short walk from that stretch, so a visitor with business at City Hall has three downtown coffee counters within easy reach before or after an appointment.


Where are the Dutch Bros stands in Oroville?

Dutch Bros' own city page lists two Oroville stands, both drive thru pickup windows. One is at 2366 Feather River Blvd, on the same boulevard as Olson House Coffee's cafe at 2525 and Lots A Java at 1661. The other is at 2340 Oro Dam Blvd. E., which carries the 95966 ZIP code rather than the 95965 used downtown and along Feather River Blvd. They are the only chain stands this guide maps.


What building houses Union Coffee Club?

Union Coffee Club operates inside the Historical City of Paris Building at 1474 Myers St in downtown Oroville. Explore Butte County also places the shop in that historic building and in the Downtown Oroville district. The grand opening was April 25, 2025. Because locals already know the building by name, asking anyone downtown for the City of Paris Building is one of the easiest ways to find the counter on a first visit.


How can an Oroville coffee shop get its street and story told clearly online?

Put the basics in your own words on your own page: your street address, such as 1474 Myers St or 2040 Montgomery St, your hours, and the year you opened. Those are the details a visitor and a search tool reach for first, and they read best when the shop states them directly. Hillcane builds that kind of site for independent coffee shops.
