It has always been a real treat to come here, but this is my last visit.I ordered a cappuccino. One of my pet peeves are all these places that have expensive espresso machines then ruin the drink - and more importantly the experience by putting a cappuccino in a paper cup.When I asked if this was normal (despite the very nice coffee cups on top of the espresso machine), the answer was yes.I threw it away after one sip and tasting all that nasty bits of paper fiber in a $7.50 coffee.What a shame. They did refund my money depute asking to question my honesty about throwing it away.

Great place for breakfast and lunch! They have a variety of fusion foods like sandwiches and crepes to choose from. We ordered: - Vietnamese coffee: coffee taste was strong but not bitter, and sweetened with rich condensed milk. The drink was the perfect amount of sweetness. Really good Viet coffee! - croissant sandwich: sandwich came out hot with the croissant having a nice crunch. Bacon was flavorful and crunchy. The portions are just right for breakfast/brunch and they give kettle chips on the side. - crepe with strawberry and banana: the crepe itself was soft and freshly made. Lots of chocolate sauce and added a scoop of ice cream. Overall, it's a good place for coffee or breakfast/lunch! The price point is good and they have many options to choose from. The staff are nice and accommodating.

If you're craving hot mocha while meandering in Hayward, I'd recommend stopping by! The staff were very hospitable and our barista brought our to-go drinks to our seats, so sweet! The mocha's were AMAZING. Removed the lid to find adorable foam art and I loved how it didn't overpower the mocha flavor at all. Despite being in a standard paper cup, it stayed warm for a long time. Definitely a plus during the cold and rainy season. I'd love to come by for the mocha again if I'm in the area and maybe try one of their sweet crepes!

Came here for breakfast with my grandmother this morning and this is such a cute spot. They have both indoor and outdoor seating which on a sunnier/warmer day would've been lovely. You order at the front and if you're dining in just find a seat and staff will bring your meal. We got the beef and mushroom crepe and the breakfast sandwich with bacon. The breakfast sandwich was made really well and is pretty filling. The beef and mushroom crepe was also delicious, the beef was cooked nicely and wasn't too chewy. My only downside was there could've been a slightly better filling to crepe ratio. The Americano that my grandmother got to drink was perfection according to her, however my jasmine green tea was oversteeped and a bit bitter. So if I come back I'll probably do coffee over hot tea here. Just note this place does not have its own parking lot, it's either street parking or parking in the downtown Hayward movie theater parking garage.

Not good, the food gave us a stomach ache & their coffee was watery. I wouldn't recommend!

Came in here for a quick bite and some coffee. Had a vanilla latte which was good. I also had a ham and cheese crepe, it was great in size but for me it did have too much mayo. It did make the taste a bit off.

Soon to be out of business coffee shop. They barely have any coffee and if they do it’s very dull. The staff didn’t even know what they sell.
The wife and I had a few hours to kill one weekday morning and we didn’t feel like driving far so we ended up at Atlas in downtown Hayward. The area has been cleaned up quite a bit from what I remember during my younger days. The restaurant/cafe looks nice, sort of like a poor man’s SF cafe. I ordered the veggie crepe and my wife the Nutella strawberry crepe. Mine was not good, it was very bland and tasteless. It had a clammy texture and I ate about half just not to be rude. The crepe my wife ordered was better as it is hard to mess up chocolate, strawberries etc. but it still was not up to par. The lady that took our order was also the cook. She was polite but rigid. I miss the Railroad Cafe in Livermore. That was my go to. Haven’t found another joint like that since it closed.

Crepes. Crepes. Yum. Love this place it is so tasty and just the best place to work, go on a date, meet with friends. They make all the juices fresh and the crepes too. Great fresh ingredients. Can be a little oily but I also got heavier meals. Wish I could walk to this cute place.Parking: Community parking across the street in a lot
It’s a quiet and nice spot. The coffee is not perfect, but the service is great. If you are not selective about your espresso drinks, then you can still enjoy your espresso at this cafe.

Didn't have food. Ordered an espresso drink that was horrible. She offered to remake it, still not right. They really need to hire someone who knows how to use the espresso machine. Won't come here again for an espresso based drink. Nothing like Eko.

Accidentally walked in 10min before opening but the owners were still welcoming and let me know they were booting up everything. They let me wait inside. Ordered: 3 breakfast sandwiches on a plain bagel w/ avocado. I was hoping we'd get wrapped up bagels to go but they came in styrofoam boxes and it felt a bit much for a to-go order. The owner added chips on the side, which was a nice treat.
