About Mohka House

Mohka House is a charming café with a welcoming atmosphere, spacious interior, and beautiful Yemeni decor. The staff is friendly and attentive, making customers feel at home from the moment they walk in. They provide good service and helpful advice on menu options. The café offers a variety of savory and sweet dishes, including many plant-based and vegan options. There are soy, oat, and almond milk substitutes available—though there's a small upcharge for choosing plant-based milks, it’s well worth it. Notable menu items include the Oatmilk Matcha latte, Oatmilk ginger milk, and the delicious Oatmilk chai. Their pastries feature savory vegan options, gluten-free and vegan cheesecakes, and the unique savory chocolate chip cookie with sesame seeds.

The space is inviting, with plenty of places to relax on a couch or work on a laptop or notebooks. Both indoor and outdoor seating are comfortable, featuring a mix of wooden tables and cushioned chairs, making it suitable for working, studying, or hanging out with friends. The café is open until 9:30pm every day, which is a major plus as many coffee houses close earlier. The interior has a cozy vibe, with pleasant non-English music playing at a reasonable volume, and the Wi-Fi and outlets support long stays. Prices are reasonable, often better than similar places. Mohka House is wheelchair accessible and has a warm ambiance, perfect for gathering, relaxing, or working while enjoying a cup of tea or a pastry. It truly is a gem in Oakland, offering an authentic cultural experience and a special place for friends and new connections.

Didn’t eat any food, but the chai tea was fabulous! Really loved how it was explained how it was unlike Starbucks.
Loved every part of this cafe experience. My partner tried the iced cafe mocha and asked for a bit less ice than usual, and the clerk (also presumably the (co-)owner), was ultra accommodating, making sure that she got precisely the amount of ice in the cup she was hoping for, and the mocha itself was rich and delicious with just a hint of the bitterness from the coffee in the aftertaste, just how coffee should influence the mocha flavor, offering something close to a mouthful...read full review
I was pleasantly surprised by this place! The matcha was whisked fresh right in front of me rather than being premade, which I really enjoyed.

Honestly, I didn’t expect much, but I was genuinely surprised by how good it tasted. It had a homemade quality to it in the best way. I’d definitely...read full review
