Caffe Dolce was an Italian coffeehouse located at 547 Main Street in Vacaville, California from 1992 to 1997 in historic Downtown Vacaville.[1] Caffe Dolce was featured in a 1993 Vacaville Reporter article about the emerging coffee culture and coffeehouse scene and in Vacaville and in the broader Solano County: "Vacaville's bustling Caffe Dolce and Java International are signs of upper Solano County's burgeoning coffeehouse scene."[2] According to I.M. Fuller, the article's author:

"Nestled in a renovated building, with parquet floor and ceiling fans, rich in browns and burgundies, Caffe Dolce was the most charming of our stops. It "feels" more like a coffeehouse, a place in which you can mull over Proust in a dim corner while devouring a jelly doughnut and a cafe latte. A real Paris cafe ambience; you keep waiting for Jean Luc to come take your order. Indeed, a wooden sign on a wall proclaims: "Sit Long — Talk Much." Ahh. Such might be the slogan for the proper coffeehouse."[3]

Caffe Dolce was a venue for notable Bay Area musicians such as the Dave Tyesi Trio (jazz band), singer/songwriter Brooke Fox, accordionist Rick Bez, and Fairfield-based harpist Linda Rice.[4][not in citation given] Caffe Dolce was a regular stop for visitors to the annual Merriment on Main celebration on Main Street, which has been a local holiday tradition for over 30 years.[5][not in citation given] Caffe Dolce was also the venue for several events hosted by the Italian American service organization Unico National.[original research?]

Following the closure of Caffe Dolce, 547 Main Street has been the home of other coffeehouses and restaurants, such as Caffe Baci[6] and Hana Sushi.[7]
