Bad Barista

Sweet little shop to enjoy an afternoon latte with a friend. High quality coffee is smooth and nice. Very pleasant barista.

Love this place! They have great prices and the baristas are very friendly. They always have fun specialty drinks. Very local community feel!

A great neighborhood coffee shop. Staff by hard-working folks who want to make sure they get your order right and deliver it to you quickly. Great range of drink options. Yummy Bakery treats. It's where a lot of people from our neighborhood meet talk or just hang out.

With a mix of emotions swirling within me, I feel compelled to share my review of the beloved neighborhood café I'm reluctantly bidding farewell to. A recent change in my job location means I won't have the pleasure of visiting this delightful spot anymore. Nevertheless, I can't help but sing praises for this hidden gem and the experiences I've had here. What truly sets this café apart is the exceptional service provided by the dedicated staff. The owners, in particular, go the extra mile to make every customer feel welcome and valued. Even during the chaotic morning rush and bustling mid-afternoon lunch hours, their attentiveness shines through. They consistently have my order ready, striking a balance between efficiency and quality. Now, let's talk about the café's offerings, which are nothing short of delightful. Whether you're a coffee aficionado or a lover of delectable pastries, this place has it all. As you step inside, the inviting aroma of freshly brewed coffee instantly awakens your senses. The coffee itself is rich, flavorful, and expertly crafted, making it the perfect way to kickstart your day. As I bid farewell to this café, it's with a sense of gratitude for the memories it has given me. The combination of excellent service, carefully crafted beverages and pastries, and a cozy atmosphere make it stand out from the competition. To anyone who has the chance to visit this neighborhood café, I wholeheartedly recommend giving it a try. Whether you need a quick caffeine fix or a peaceful spot to unwind, this café has got you covered. Treasure each moment you spend here, as it truly is a haven for coffee lovers and food enthusiasts alike.

Google said this was a donut shop. Its not. The muffins are really good yho

Love to stop here during bike rides for a quick pastry and cappuccino. This little shop makes the best cappuccino I've had in the US. Knowledgeable staff taught me why it was so good too!

I allow extra tIme before my nail appointment next door to have coffee and a treat. The owner Kim is wonderful and the staff us great. I started bringing my mother here as well, she looks forward to going.

Since our first visit, the staff has without exception been incredibly warm and accommodating. The food is fresh, often made in house and tastes fantastic. Go. Here. You'll be back.

Mom and pop place. Great staff, they remember all the regulars and their orders. Breakfast sandwiches are my favorite, choice of bread, croissant, or bagel. Fresh fruit salads.

Got a hot chocolate and a chai tea here on a cold rainy day. Both were delish!!! Hot chocolate was so rich and creamy! Chai tea was extra spicy! Perfect treats to take with us as we do our crazy holiday shopping!

THE BEST CAFE EVERYONE IN OAKLAND AND THE BAY SHOULD KNOW ABOUT THIS CAFE THE OWNERS ARE REALLY NICE AND VERY WELCOMINGG I TRULY RECOMMEND THIS CAFE -leilani😁😁

One of the better mochas I’ve had - incredibly smooth and well balanced (not overly sweet or underwhelming). Will definitely be returning soon for another and more ;}

Has a Homie kinda vibe to it. Coffee is delish. We love the bagels and donuts. Prices are fair. The people are great here! Just a simple little place for a good cup of coffee or tea.

It was one of the places my friends and I would hang out at, the staff was nice, the prices are great, especially since we were students, and I love their donut holes and caramel frapps.

I pop by some mornings for a coffee, and it's good coffee. Friendly and responsive staff. This cafe is really cute and often bustling with a sampling of neighbors in the morning.

I've been here twice and ordered cappuccinos, which didn't really live up to my expectations or the quality of other coffee shops in the area. Maybe I'm too picky, but the drinks were hot enough to burn and overly acidic with dull flavor. I'm not sure that the machine is getting a proper extraction on the espresso.
