I came in this morning to grab tea for myself and another person, and another person came in right after me and asked to use some napkins. The front counter person was so rude and disrespectful and told the person to leave. It really is quite disgusting to see a black woman treat another black woman that she doesn't even know with complete and utter disrespect as if that person was less than human. Was it really going to negatively impact your businesses to give out a napkin? Because I gave her pne from my pocket and my wallet wasn't impacted. I will definitely NEVER come back as a customer. You all are a disgrace to your community.

Edit 11/01/25: Some of the most nuanced flavoured lattes around. Had their banana bread and pecan pie lattes, which really taste accurate and impressively are not very sweet.

Without a doubt, my favorite place in downtown Oakland, my neighborhood. The place is spacious, warm and clean. Good and fast attention. The food is fresh, varied and they also have a very nice store. Thank you!
