Closes far ahead of hours. Hopefully will go bankrupt eventually

Wow! The salsa music, the tropical smoothies, the empanadas, it all brought me back home to Latin America. Delish and feels like home!

A Bagel Letdown: Abe's Cafe 3 Star Disappointment

This place had the potential for a breakfast win, but sadly, it fell flat in most areas. Let's get this out of the way first: the atmosphere is, well, lacking. It feels more like a forgotten corner than a vibrant breakfast spot. Service wasn't much better - think disinterested and impersonal.

Now, onto the main event: the food. With high hopes, I dove into their bagel with eggs. Unfortunately, the bagel itself was a major disappointment. Small and underwhelming, it lacked the satisfying heft you crave in a good breakfast bagel. To make matters worse, it wasn't even toasted properly, leaving me with a mouthful of doughy disappointment.

The price point for this underwhelming experience? Shockingly high. For what I got, I could have had a far superior breakfast elsewhere.

Unless you're desperate and have low expectations, I'd recommend steering clear. There are much better bagel and egg options out there that won't leave you feeling ripped off.

Friendly neighborhood place, the Good Morning Yogurt bowl, with granola, banana and fresh berries is terrific. It was almost enough to get me to move to Berkeley!

Good people, good food. Had the daily special croissant sandwich. Incredibly fresh and packing with flavor. Eating here is a must and the cold brew was smooth and everything you’d want it to be.

Just a nice place to grab a coffee, or sandwich, or even a plate of chile verde. Delicious, consistent, and friendly, Abe's is one of the best.

Just an absolutely awesome restaurant with amazing, high quality food and actually gives you enough portion size.Kinda cliche but Abe’s Cafe has literally brightened my time at Berkeley lol especially these past semesters where it has gotten pretty tough and miserable. Thank you Abe’s Cafe for always making my day better every time I go!

Fresh bagel! ?
They don’t use any artificial seasoning so the taste is clean and delicious?
Their indoor space is not spacious, and only a few seats are available, but they do have many outdoor seats available!

# Hummus & Avocado Jalapeños Bagel ?

Made my drink THEN told me there’s a 5 dollar minimum for cardA little predatory. Would have much preferred if they were upfront with customers
