Nduja sandwich is insanely good.

The pork adobo aroma draws you in as the kamustska sign greets you warmly. The staff provides nourishment alongside a compassionate good morning. Nothing quite like supporting local to remind you that it is more than okay to be present.

The pulled pork adobo sandwich is sooooo good. Salad was really fresh. And the owner is so welcoming and friendly! Highly recommend this place.

I walked in, I was welcomed by the warm and cozy atmosphere that instantly made me feel at home. The space is inviting, with a charm that reflects Filipino hospitality—genuine, friendly, and full of heart. The owner and staff greet you like family, and the vibe is perfect whether you’re meeting a friend or just enjoying a quiet coffee break. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to stay a little longer.

We ordered catering for an event at work and Cafe Gabriela was amazing to work with–kind, responsive, flexible, and the food was absolutely gorgeous and soo delicious. I HIGHLY recommend their charcuterie boards, and their sandwiches (fantastic bread!) were also delicious. We're excited to continue going to them for our catering needs, and I'm excited to visit on my own as well!

Friendly staff. The 1/2 SANDWICH & 1/2 SALAD combo is a great deal for only $12. Very good value. I love that they cut the sandwich in half. It was tasty. The bread was nice and crunchy. I eat small portions and half of the half was filling for me. 😂 I can only imagine how big the full sandwich must be. 😮 I look forward to trying their Iced Latte and Iced Mocha, in the future. It's nice to see Half & Half offered as a milk alternative. I prefer my iced drinks Breve. 😁

Great little cafe/lunch spot in Oakland. Sandwiches were so tasty and the staff were super friendly! We ordered the half sandwich and half salad combo and the prices were so reasonable. Perfect amount of food . My son had the pulled pork adobo sandwich and I ordered the soppressata with mozzarella and we were both so happy with our meals. Limited space for dine-in but I still highly recommend!

Amazing sandwiches. Friendly service. Maybe the best caprese sandwich in the bay area... And I love the half salad option with the sweet vinaigrette which works really well as a little dip for the sandwich too.

Amazing fried egg breakfast sandwich. Delicious ingredients served on a fresh baguette. Very good pour over with their house blend as well. On top of the delicious food and coffee, the owners of the shop are truly kind and caring people.
