Burlap Coffee Oakland Reviews
A serene and peaceful place to be and relax and contemplate life while sipping some coffee or tea. The rustic wood grain tones established and atmosphere of calm in a hip and sophisticated way with some retro leanings. I came here because the trains were delayed for a while on Bart so I sat here in the early morning and sipped a chai latte and wandered around through this quiet spacious area with vintage paraphernalia and quite soft cozy couches. By the time I left, the trains are running normally again, and the log jam of people waiting on the BART platform had dissipated. I would like to recommend the vanilla scones, as the one I had added a little dash of elegance and softness to my already relaxed experience in this little haven with my tea. There is nothing absolutely exceptional about this space, but it is simply a clean and peaceful place to feel the sunlight on your face and drink some tea or coffe and wait for a while. There is a piano and some ornate lamps and lovely pictures on the wall.
I recall the bathroom being very clean. Which is always a relief anywhere you go. I ordered a breakfast sandwich made with egg and Spinach they did have a vegetarian option which was nice. They had box water which was cute and Some other options as well. They have a lot of seating which was nice and the grand piano was a great addition to the extra seating area they had. Looked like a very clean environment.
Looks like a place artists would meet. Cozy and a lot of space. Loved my banana mocha with oats milk in a mag. Didn’t even need sugar. Different art on the wall, too. Unfortunately, their Mighty Leaf teas were all in plastic mesh, and it is known plastics and hot water is not a healthy combo…
it’s a nice place to do work! beautiful artwork and seats. not much parking, so walk or take the bus. coffee and teas are delicious, food is great too. the owner and workers are super friendly ^_^ feel very at home here.
came here to get a oat milk latte, and it was more open and spacious than I expected very nice even though I was only there for less than 20 minutes. The atmosphere was amazing and plenty of places to plug-in if that’s your type of thing.
Good coffee!! Is 12 o clock at night and I'm wife awake like an owl. The ambiance was cute and the location priceless as we don't have many cafes open late in Oakland, let alone in this area.
This is such a cute cafe! I stopped by to grab a quick coffee while I was stuck in the rain. But definitely going back to spend some time there. It's great for working or reading a book. Cute and cozy vibe with great coffee and spread out enough with lot of seating, to get your work done. They also had standing tables!! The lady who made my coffee was so sweet too ☺️
Affordable prices on food and drink, great space for working. Love that there is no charge for plant-based milk and discounted pastries after $2. Grateful to find a chill and affordable coffee shop!
the owner and staff are wonderful! coffee is delicious and the ambience is super relaxing!

This is hands down my favorite coffee shop! The coffee here is consistently amazing. You can taste the care and quality in every cup. The owner goes above and beyond with customer service and truly cares about the coffee he serves. You can tell he takes pride in every detail, from the beans to the presentation. It’s rare to find a place that feels this personal and welcoming. Highly recommend to any true coffee lover!
the barista guy and owner is so nice. hot caramel lattes were amazing. very close to the bart and also a great little coworking space. they leave you alone and you can work for hours should you wish to. all in all, a neighborhood gem
Great cozy cafe! Right near Bart and excellent place to grand a coffee or starter bakery pasteries.
Great place for coffee and a breakfast sandwich after a red eye flight into the Bay, and it looks like a super cute setup for getting work done too!
Randomly tried this when we were in Oakland and it is so nice! Staff super attentive and helpful and the place is much bigger than it seems from the outside. Big back section with couches and communal tables. Breakfast sandwiches are really good too!
Great espresso drinks at good prices (no surcharge for oat milk!), excellent pastries and a couple flavors of Javi's empanadas. The baristas are very warm. The ambiance is the best part, though. Lots of seating and very quiet. Great place to get some work or writing done.
What a great little coffee shop! I was highly impressed with the atmosphere of this place, and it had a true local vibe. I liked my latte I ordered, it was very nice and frothy and I thought it was really neat seeing them use unique coffee mugs, ect. I enjoyed the salmon egg breakfast sandwich as well, I do recommend this place for the local vibe, and decent prices as well. What a neat little coffee shop!

Very friendly place for cup of coffee and a donut. Good cup of coffee. The bqriata was very nice had a mask on and there was a bottle of hand sanitizer on the counter. Was not hungry but want to come back to try their breakfast sandwich items and also their shakes. Very reasonable price. Quick and friendly service. Parking a little difficult.
Ethiopan drip coffee was really good. Breakfast sandwiches were delicious as well and at about $6-7 per sandwich. The interior was very spacious. Great spot for a quick coffee or to hangout and work next to MacArthur.
Great little coffee shop/ cafe. It has ample seating with solid wifi so its a great place to get some work done. They also have some solid breakfast sandwiches. The staff are very friendly, and while it can get busy from time to time its worth the wait.

Your cute bright blue neighborhood coffee shop. Good coffee, well prepared by kind people. They are worth your time and patronage.
Little bit pricey. Ambience is old. Staff is in a rush on taking orders. Free wifi
Espresso was nasty. Egg sandwich was just okay. Shop seems cute, just don't go for the espresso
