About Bicycle Coffee

Bicycle Coffee is a popular coffee shop in Oakland that also offers a selection of healthy eatery options. Their burritos are reasonably priced at $5 and they offer vegetarian muffins from Firebrand Bakery. The coffee is a local favorite, though it's worth noting that it's of the second-wave variety, with a focus on classic offerings like lattes made with dark, nutty espresso and well-steamed milk. However, those hoping for more specialized options like cortados or single-origin offerings may be disappointed. The mochas have been highly praised, with one reviewer declaring it the best they've had since their time in Florence, Italy. The location is in a walkable part of Oakland and has a casual, laid-back atmosphere, with limited seating indoors and a few tables outside. Customers appreciate the friendly staff, even when busy, and enjoy relaxing Sundays with iced Americanos or sitting outside for people watching. The cold brew is described as silky smooth, making it a great spot to unwind. However, some reviews mention poor customer service from certain staff members, which affects the overall experience. Despite this, the coffee and ambiance continue to make Bicycle Coffee a popular local destination.
