Probably the worst coffee in a while. I ordered a flat white. I got a tasteless concoction of hot water milk and rather what felt like flavor of coffee

lots of seating, sleek ambience, and AWESOME concept! im a lovergirl, and all their drink items (juices, coffees, smoothies) are love themed it is so cool i have never come across anything like it. it would be good if they did hot coffees in the smaller sized cups (you can only get 16oz which is a good amount but i dont always want that much) but anyway it was good! i got their “light my fire” and it was very sweet but i was in the mood for it and the flavour was very nice. i also LOVE that they give a hershey’s kiss with their coffee because yum. i definitely want to try their pour over next time!

Stopped in for a latte. The woman helping was super kind and helpful with suggestions. I tried the Redemption half sweet and loved it. Would’ve loved a bit more ice but it was good. The teen kids all tried something different and everyone enjoyed their picks. Restrooms were clean and so was the seating area.

What a pleasant surprise! I honestly didn't think a sandwich could taste this good. Fancy looking but with good prices and great service

The place looks like a coffee shop and has a vibe that way too. However, the coffee is undrinkable. My espresso tasted like the wash-water of an ashtray.

I ordered a vegan empanada which did not taste good. When I spoke to the person who seemed to be in charge, he basically said, "well, we have this pamphlet that shows the ingredients and you should have looked at that." I told him that no one had showed me this pamphlet which was under the counter. He was like, too bad. Very unfriendly. Also the drink was nothing special and for this tiny inedible empanada and iced tea, the charge was $16. I will not be returning.

Walked in for the need of a bathroom. At the counter there is a sign that states to use the bathroom, it’s $3 per person. I paid for a water so that my friend can use the bathroom. When we paid, she went to one side of the the door and so i went over to stand with her, but when i did that, a cashier stopped me and asked if i am going as well and that I have to pay. I told her that it was just my friend, the cashier then taps on the man whom I assume is security. He is intimidating looking to say the least… but when she tapped on his shoulder, he turned and said “you know you have to pay for the bathroom”, I then go “yeah I know, she is just going” he then says “good” and turns around, but it was the way he approached us that made me feel intimidated. This is illegal to say the least

This is not the local business I would choose to support. All the students know that this is not a friendly or welcoming place to spend your time. The drinks aren’t bad, but if you want to pay the whopping $8 for a drink (go to Strada, Sodoi, Souvenir, Peet’s or Caffeinated instead for better prices), they will still change the Wifi password halfway through your study session and then badger you about whether or not you bought a drink when you ask for the updated password (even as you’re holding the cup). The experience just feels hostile.

If you’re the owner and you’re reading this, please reconsider the way you approach talking to customers and cultivate the energy of your establishment. This is coming from someone who really wanted to like your cafe, but has always left with a bad taste in her mouth. There are better cafes to support in Berkeley.

As many have noted, staff is impolite and eager to get customers out of the store. The music inside is also very, very loud. Will not be returning.
