26 Best Coffee Shops in Alameda

“The best place ever. Love them ❤️ 💕“

“Favorite coffee shop in Alameda! Everything from food, delicious coffee always and their continued support for local artists!“

“The Biscoff latte is AMAZING — not too sweet and you can definitely taste the good coffee in it. I went here everyday while I was staying in the area.

The indoor dining is cozy and the outdoor area is a nice spot to chill and sip your coffee in the morning. There’s a kiosk inside for self-order which is a plus for me as well.“

“A lot of people had been raving about Mango & Mint. I finally made it there yesterday for the first time and ... it was even better than my expectations!
I ordered the spring rolls. They were so fresh and so tasty! 👍The flan is also a must eat! 🙂The waitress double checked on the ingredients of the sauce to confirm if it was GF or not.
I loved the food so much I returned today for more spring rolls and flan. The waitress greeted as if I was a regular as she recognized me from yesterday. 😉😊
Check them out; they offer much more than what I opted for.“

“We visited Alameda in April to attend a celebration of life for a family member that we lost suddenly. Our family was in town from all over the country, and we found Cafe Jolie Petit near our hotel. They took such great care of us, fed us meals on three or four consecutive days, and we could not have asked for better service or food during an emotional time. Pastries (Koiugn Amann!), Monte Cristo, and the coffee bar were our favorites, but everything we had was delicious. We hope to be back for happier circumstances at some point, and definitely will return!“

“Great view of Coast Guard island !“

“Nice clean location in Downtown Alameda. Spacious and clean. Everyone was civil keeping conversations low.“

“Delicious coffee and a beautiful local shop!! Smells delicious inside and the people there are always friendly. Wifi and comfortable seating too!! Mocha is perfectly balanced not too sweet not too bitter. Will come back for the fresh fruit smoothies and banana nut bread with chocolate 🤤“

“Lovely and cozy coffee shop with a bright, modern vibe! Lazybird Coffee is a perfect spot to relax or get some work done. The coffee is rich and smooth, and the food is fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. I especially enjoyed the brunch dishes and specialty drinks.

The staff are friendly, welcoming, and quick with service. The space is clean, stylish, and very comfortable. Prices are reasonable for the quality. Highly recommended if you’re in Alameda — I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Unique Special Order Cakes. Made my granddaughter's 16th heart shaped Birthday cake and she was totally pleased with the results. It matched her wishes exactly. Cupcakes were super delish! Thank you Rosanna for all your help!“

“This place serves joy by the cup and happiness by the bite. The coffee? Bold enough to turn any morning around. The tea? A perfect hug in a mug, no matter the weather. And the pastries? Golden, flaky bites of pure magic that might just ruin other desserts for you. The vibe is cozy, the staff is friendly, and my taste buds are still doing a happy dance. 10/10, would abandon my kitchen for this place again.“

“solid espresso drink game from baristas.“

“This tea garden is a charming place with a peaceful atmosphere. I ordered a sustainably sourced tea and the pot was beautifully presented on a quirky display stand - a real delight! The salmon toast was rich and flavourful and clearly made with high quality ingredients. However, compared to other fair trade options nearby, I enjoyed my visit and would happily return for a special treat!“

“Thank you for the great friendly service“

“I can not express how impressed and blown away I was visiting Neptune’s today “on accident”. I was driving past neptunes today and we ran into car trouble right in front. We got out and pushed the car into the nearest parking lot which happened to be neptunes. We had just bought a used car in the neighborhood and was trying to make it home and the battery just died. We spent some time pulling out the battery and ran next door to the auto parts store to buy a new one. Out of the blue an employee walked us out some water and said “I saw you out here and it’s hot. Wanted to give you some water and ask if you needed help. “ blown away by his kindness I thanked him but we had it covered. Once we got the battery replaced I decided to get breakfast from Neptune’s to show my thanks for their hospitality. Wow was I blown away. The breakfast was amazing , the coffee on point and the hospitality was unmatched. I give 5 stars for all in. My youngest son said. That guy is a good man! And I agree if you’re looking for good service and great food. Stop here! You won’t regret it.“

“A bit slow and pricey. I wish they cooked the eggs differently for the bagel sandwiches. I am not sure if they are using powdered eggs, but the way they prepare them in thin folded sheets makes them dry and unpleasant. Bacon was also shredded and dry. The sausage was great though, and the quality of the bagels are good.“

“I am surprised I hadn't done a review earlier! The Bad Barista people are very nice, full service (remembered that we might want Splenda and added it and cream for us to decaf espresso Americanos for $3 each and added ice for Chris.) really good blueberry muffins too! Squaffins are great! I'll have to try a breakfast sometime too.“

“Super good skinny Latte w oat milk 👍😊“

“Wescafe is my favorite coffee shop.“

“I enjoy coming to this place for mochi donuts, and their milk tea. I didn’t notice they got rid of this chair where you took photo ops but they still have a lot of cute designs and there’s a bathroom to access and it’s pretty clean.

Short, wait time and there’s inside and outside seating

They also have different promo, new items and information about catering for events“

“Best ube dessert I've had yet! And the apple pie cake at Christmas was delicious. The cupcakes come across dry to me, but the actual cakes are impressive.

Google seems to think this is a dine-in spot -- not really. There are a couple outdoor tables from that's it.“

“OMG! The Chicken Mole dinner was off the hook! So flavourful tender and juicy....the mole sauce was perfect! Highly recommended. I can't wait to try the meat loaf! 😋“

“I was working at a cafe, just like any other day, when a lady came by and asked if I needed a coffee refill. I was so pleasantly surprised and happily said yes! To my delight, she even brought it over to my table (with a new lid).

I’ve visited many coffee shops, but this small act of kindness made this Starbucks stand out as the best one I’ve been to in recent years.

I forgot to ask her name, but she truly made my day!“

“I had no idea they have a MandRo Teahouse in Alameda but I'm glad it does. I normally go to the ones in Fremont and Milpitas so I know that people come here for Bingsoo (Korean shaved ice). Although it's using Korean name but I'm fairly certain the owner is actually Chinese. The shaved ice here is extremely fine and as a result super smooth and delicious. I prefer this over the coarse Hawaiian shaved ice.

My favorite is the matcha or original flavor but a lot of people seem to order the mango one.

This location seems to be much less crowded than the other places and has more seating as well. However parking can be a pain because of limited street parking and its location. You order through the kiosk and just wait for the number to be called.“

“Great customer service and plenty of parking :)“

“You must come here to taste the breakfast“
