“Very good food nice place and relaxing atmosphere 👏❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“
“They upgraded on the Baristas! Yesss! Bravo guys👏👏
Old Review:
They don’t know how to make the drinks. Tried an oat milk latte, taste like regular milk. Tried the hot chocolate, taste watered down, tried the white mocha and again disappointed. I try it with fingers crossed just because it’s convenient but never again! I can make this by myself, but better.“
“The food varies day to day, but the drinks stay. If you like coffee, they have good options, if you like smoothies, they have you covered. The workers are friendly and helpful. There are plenty of tables, and comfortable chairs. A nice place to study or hangout between classes or when the cafeteria is closed.“

“So beautiful. So delicious. All the pastries look like works of art. I personally love the Horseshoe and Jalousie pastry. It’s not too sweet, wonderfully flaky, and very flavorful. The coffee is authentically strong which I really enjoy. The staff is welcoming and friendly. I truly enjoyed visiting and can’t wait to come back!!“

“Love this little shop! So convenient and they always have fun seasonal flavors like basil syrup. I normally do some sort of matcha and theirs is one of the best in the area. Made properly and with customizable sweetness. The baristas here are always super friendly and quick as well!“

“Loved every part of this cafe experience. My partner tried the iced cafe mocha and asked for a bit less ice than usual, and the clerk (also presumably the (co-)owner), was ultra accommodating, making sure that she got precisely the amount of ice in the cup she was hoping for, and the mocha itself was rich and delicious with just a hint of the bitterness from the coffee in the aftertaste, just how coffee should influence the mocha flavor, offering something close to a mouthful of icy dark chocolate. I had the Adeni Chai, also iced, and I loved it. The same clerk let me know that if I wanted a more traditionally sweet chai flavor he would craft that for me, but I wanted the unsweetened flavor, and the faint sweetness was perfect. I was tempted by the delicious looking sweets, but I’ll save those for my next visit. I know if I had expressed any interest that I would have been talked into trying at least one of the delicious offerings in the case, an exploration in Yemeni sweets. The vibe of the cafe was extremely chill and inviting with people sipping drinks, enjoying snack, immersed in conversation, or working on their laptops or smartphones with the ample outlets around the dine-in space. Parking is easy with a nearby public lot and ample street parking, truly a cafe oasis in the Dimond District.“

“If you're looking for a fun and diverse set of chocolates to try then this is the place. I only took a pic of one portion of the options available and I'm told the selection grows during the holidays. I can't wait to come back and explore more options.“

“I'm a recent customer here, about 6 weeks, but in that time I've tried to make this coffee shop one to visit often. The selections for food items seem interesting, but I'm a chai latte kinda guy, and this the staff does well. It's a neat, clean, and well ordered establishment, and the staff is friendly, and accommodating. A good place to frequent.“

“There were three in my party. We ducked in here to take a break from the cold rain. We ordered a chai, a golden/turmeric chai, and a caffé latté, all with oat milk. It’s our first try of oat milk. We all liked it a lot. The foam on my golden chai was lovely. I’d reorder it anytime. I tried my mate’s latté with oat milk, I can recommend it. The pastries we ordered were all worth the consumption. I’m so glad there was one pretzel cheese bun left. It was delicious even though it wasn’t warm. I highly recommend them. We also ordered a quiche, a chocolate croissant, and an almond pastry. They were all superb. The almond pastry which was super light and flaky tasted like baklava more so than an almond filling. I liked the vibe here. So often I want to grab my order and split, not here. I felt fine taking refuge from the outside environs. The staff were sweet regardless of their spoken English being nearly impossible to understand. It was cool assuming they were part of the refugee program. It felt good being a patron there and the inspired conversation it led to. I am sure my party was surprised I was already knowledgeable about the topic on current refugees. That made our café and conversation time only that much more enjoyable.“

“Nice small coffee shop, the coffee is quite good. They can improve their hours, my only gripe is that they don't open till 8 which makes it hard to get coffee from them in the morning. Overall the coffee is good, I have been there a few times“

“This place is very lovely. Super chill, zen. They even have a little water fountain on the side, super tranquil, love it! The macha is made fresh, the store is air conditioned (because who can drink macha in this heat!?). Great spot to get your drink, chill a bit and recover.“
“People keep asking on Reddit for good cafes to work at in town. Good Vybes is the spot, lots of sunny space to work in or outdoors. The Vybes are really good, if you're having a bad day, you'll find something that picks you up here. It's also one of the best tasting cafes in town. Mr. Good Vybes has some serious coffee knowledge. The text blasts are very informative and keep us in the loop of some great deals. The rewards are also banging. Just go.“

“This is the best, best, best place. Even picky teens lick their plates clean. I want everyone to go so they stay open, but I also want no one to go so it's not too busy for me to get in. Ha! I have loved everything I have eaten or had to drink, the space is large yet inviting, and the proprietors are the nicest people you'll ever meet. Just go, even if it's just to grab one of their fancy coffees.“

“♿️Cafe has a wheelchair accessible seating, entrance and toilet. Seating available outside in front of the cafe, in the cafe and in the back patio .
Wonderful family run cafe. Popular with many Glenview elementary families in the mornings before school. Excellent selection of coffees, teas and breakfast pastries and bagels. Great to sit inside or outside. And nice spot to get some work done. Customer service is personal and so kind. As we are regulars, they recognize our son, and they always say hello to him.
Parking: Street parking on Park Blvd varies. Sometimes easy to get a spot in the morning if needed, sometimes a bit challenging later in the day.
Kid-friendliness: Very welcoming
Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible entrance, seating and restroom“

“Beautiful atmosphere, cultural aesthetics, and a clean, simple setup. The Ethiopian combo was amazing; slightly on the spicy side, but absolutely delicious! We also enjoyed the coffee ceremony, which came with popcorn and such a beautiful presentation.
Definitely recommend this spot for a laid-back Sunday brunch or whenever you’re craving Ethiopian food in the morning. 10/10! will definitely be back! ❤“
“I like to sit at the sidewalk tables in the morning with the sun shining and I always enjoy the friendly banter w staff. Try the Wu Wei tea! Wu Wei. You could look it up :) And the cortado! Peace.“
“If you're a tea-a-holic or simply in the mood for some truly great tea this is the place for you. All the variety you could ask for and then some and the nicest welcoming owner who is happy to share her without a doubt professional experience and knowledge of tea and everything related to it. And did I mention the ambiance? Classical music, lovely decor and absolutely a delightful experience overall. We had a wonderful time, thank you "Sophie's Cuppa Tea".“

“Super awesome place! Was traveling out of town and I got the prosciutto toast with arugula and caramelized onions, and it was great!
The best part was how awesome the staff was with my son. He wanted a mango and peach smoothie which wasn’t on the menu, and they went out of their way to help us customize it into something he would actually like and he loved it.
We’ll definitely go again.“

“Friendly and helpful baristas with a lot of interesting drinks. I had the station 8, which is a golden chai. I didn't feel like it had too much caffeine. It's hard to find drinks like that for someone that is caffeine sensitive. It looked like there were a lot of interesting snacks offered too“

“Have been wanting to try this place for a while. We got the Karak chai with oat milk and a Kashmiri chai. Love that they have oat milk options! The 2 were absolute perfection! Parking won’t necessarily be easy as it’s downtown Berkeley. The cafe was spacious but is pretty packed with students and customers. We found a small table outside which was nice. Also, we took some karak chai blend home and have been enjoying it :) would definitely recommend!“

“A cool spot with great coffee and a nice atmosphere.
I tried the Yemeni coffee, and it was very flavorful and unique. They mentioned that they source the beans from Yemen, which definitely added to the experience. The place has a creative, artistic vibe and makes for a great hangout spot.
They also have a great selection of desserts, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. Free Wi-Fi is another nice touch if you want to spend some time here.
One small detail I really liked was their takeout cup design—it does a great job of preventing spills and keeping your shirt safe, which is surprisingly thoughtful.
The only disappointment was the chicken shawarma, which didn’t quite live up to expectations.
Overall, a great place to hang out, especially for the coffee, desserts, and atmosphere.“

“Loved my birthday dinner tonight! Portions small for the prices in our opinion. A scallops main dish with 3 scallops is small. Drinks were amazing, decor fabulous and great service. My son had to go eat more food afterwards as he was still hungry. Bigger portions would be good. Loved everything else! Great choices, appetizers, main dishes and creative drinks were delicious. Kind of surprised knowing they knew it was my birthday that they didn't offer me a birthday "something" to make it special. For these prices I would expect something.“

“In my never-ending quest for black sesame coffee, I was nearby and googled for one. Binge came up as having black sesame coffee and many others that I would try. Good thing, because when I got there, they were sold out of black sesame, but they had the banana coffee. I am so glad I got it. It was delicious – rich and flavorful, and it held up through the entire cup. Also, they use pebble ice, which makes a huge difference. With pebble ice, as your drink melts down, the flavors still are there because you can crunch down on the pebble ice with your teeth. Think about regular ice and how you’re trying to get those last flavors out of a cup, but can’t because the ice is in the way. Yes, I’ve thought about this way too much. I will 100% be back and try many other flavors, including the black sesame.“

“Vegan bakery with many offerings: donuts, cookies, pastries, coffee and tea. Very limited options that are gluten free, which is the only downside. The baked goods have great flavor and texture. The baristas do a great job with the coffee. I recommend if you’re in the area“
