Great pastries, delicious hot coco, and warm inviting atmosphere. I love the hole in the wall vibe and it opens up to this beautiful lil Cafe with a view of a cool building on the inside. Definitely will be coming back!

What a lovely spot! A very friendly family run cafe with tasty sandwiches and excellent coffee for lunch or breakfast. Best tuna salad I've had in ages and my friend raved about his chicken breast sandwich as will. Our mochas were rich.This is a hidden treat in the passageway that bridges 15th Street Oscar Grant/Frank Ogawa Plaza. Nice cafe umbrellas for outdoor dining and a small intimate indoor dining area. (Pro tip: If you sit indoors, keep going all the way in past the counter (or if outdoors, ask for directions to the bathroom to give you an excuse) to view the magnificent rotunda.

I firstly came here to have a hot matcha latte and kept coming for that every time. The taste of matcha keeps getting lighter every time.

This time I tried their bagel and I regretted. It was so bland.

Some customers are very loud when they are inside the cafe. Why do they have to be that loud?

From this point on, I officially stopped coming to this place.

Caffè Teatro in Oakland is a true gem! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with friendly staff who always greet you with a smile. The coffee is excellent—rich, smooth, and consistently well-made. Their food selection is fresh and flavorful, especially the pastries and breakfast options. It’s the perfect spot whether you’re grabbing a quick espresso or sitting down to enjoy a peaceful break. Clean environment, good music, and great service—highly recommended!

A perfect morning stop for coffee, pastries, and a light breakfast. Hyatt is incredibly welcoming and always goes the extra mile—asking for feedback on the new iced matcha and making sure guests feel genuinely cared for. I don’t visit every day, but every time I do, it’s a great experience thanks to Hyatt.

Can’t tell you how much I rely on Cafe Teatro. They are warm kind people, especially Sofia, and make the daily coffee routine a joy. The coffee is always strong and hot and the soup will warm your soul up. Please check out Cafe teatro next time your in downtown Oakland

I just got a basic hot chocolate and muffin, which were good. I also like how warm the place is. Looking forward to trying the breakfast sandwiches when I'm in the mood. The staff was friendly, and the place was clean and inviting.

This is my go to coffee spot in downtown Oakland. It’s a family run coffee shop and the owner Abdul is always welcoming. The cappucino always has the perfect amount of foam and tuna sandwich is perfect with the perfect level of taoastdness. Will be returning
