Great little joint, right next to Lake Merritt BART station. Friendly staff, comfortable atmosphere, great food, and reasonably priced!

The owner Sifu runs a solid nook here. Study, read, coffee, sandwiches and smoothies. My favorites are the drip coffee which are made with the Ethiopian coffee beans he also sells, and the Laney hot sandwich: a delicious turkey, spinach, egg, Swiss cheese on an English muffin. Consistently good food and great prices. Small drip coffee is $2.75! It’s a treat on the go or for a small stay time for me!
Thanks Lane-E Kefa Coffee.

Cozy little spot with very friendly barista. The only thing I would change is adding more outlets so I could do homework here!

A special local coffee cafe with good coffee and tasty breakfast sandwich. I ordered a delicious breakfast sandwich with egg, spinach (generous portion), and ooey gooey melted Swiss cheese on an English muffin. Folks here go above and beyond. I had my breakfast and coffee in the cafe. Friendly guy at the register made my coffee in a mug and brought to my table. When I asked for half and half he steamed a little and added to my drink. The person preparing the breakfast sandwiches to order also brought my sandwich to my table and was friendly. This is a great place to hang out alone or with others for coffee and/or breakfast. They have a lunch menu too, but I didn’t hang around long enough to try that menu.

I can’t imagine my school mornings without a chicken sandwich, it’s the best one I’ve ever had. Warm and friendly service.

I ordered a double espresso cappuccino. The employee charged me the price for it but gave me an extremely foamy single shot latte size drink. I thought coffee was going to be good since it has a 4.7 star rating but it’s probably for the food they have because coffee was horrible. Don’t go for coffee! Also, the employee literally preferred to act like he was busy rather than take my order or ask if I had any questions and when he was ready to take my order he said, “are you ready?” Should have used that time to just walk out. The place also smelled like cigarettes. Will not be returning here.

Went in to grab some coffee and breakfast sandwich. The coffee was warm, not hot as it should. I ordered the egg,spinach & Swiss sandwich and I thought it took a while. The sandwich was underseasoned and lacked flavor overall. However it was fresh. The best part was the English muffin, it was nicely toasted and crispy on the outside.I generally avoid giving average reviews to local business but I was disappointed at this place given the fact it has high reviews! Probably it was just bad luck for me today.
