Went it and the barista didn’t come out for 5 mins and told me to enter my order into an iPad. I mistakenly selected the cash option instead of card and he reprimanded me for it. Just walked straight out.

We are big fans of Shapeshifters! Excellent catering for our nonprofit that is affordable, big portions, and delicious.

Great little cafe. Enjoyed the breakfast burrito and breakfast sandwich. Simple and yummy!

Great little place for breakfast, lunch, or to sit with a coffee. I got the croissant breakfast sandwich and it was amazing. Iced coffee was also great, and for a great price.

This place is so charming. I ate on the back patio and it felt a nice sanctuary.

Great food. The server ( owner ) was a little smug and stand off-ish, but the food was great

Lillian Senior

The food is really good but the service was not customer friendly

On limited time so I stopped and got a breakfast bagel and dang it was really, really good! If I ever pass through this area again this is the place I'll stop at for more.

Love this spot for morning food and coffee on the patio and the adjacent cinema/brewery for evening events. This is an Oakland gem, and we need to show the owners as much support as possible.

The back patio/deck is really cool. The owner and staff were great and the coffee was amazing too!

Wish this was easier to grab a breakfast snack from. But when I’m here for meetings I don’t skip a chance for their house made sausage in their breakfasts!

Oakland is Oakland, but the cafe is cute.

Cool spot with great coffee and food. Gilbert was nice enough to make me a customized open face sandwich on tasty bread during later weekend times. Thanks!! Cheers

I had an order pickup but the app crashed and didn't show my order. The couple who own the place were really nice and friendly. They gave me my order without app confirmation. Really amazing customer service.

Finished some morning errands and wanted breakfast and coffee. Got the burrito with bacon and an iced mocha, just what I needed to start the day
