Ignored by staff for 5 minutes (just speaking spanish between then, 3 ladies working) at 1PM on 4/26. There were 4 other customers waiting.
Staff amazing great customer service , love. Coffee
Soooo good. The mozzarella tomato basil sandwich was very good and the caramel macchiato was the best I've ever had. The beignets are big and definitely worth the price. And the crepes are amazinggggg. I will be back if I ever find myself in the Bay area again!
A hidden gem just by the Fruitvale BART station! Back when I lived in Oakland, this was my Go-To spot for coffee or pastries! Definitely preferable over the big name franchises that is everywhere!
Breakfast sandwich was very overpriced. About $14 for just egg, spinach and pesto.
horrible this was so awful yuk!!!
I came here to get coffee and food and do some work today, however when I asked for their WiFi password they said they don’t have one. They do have WiFi they just don’t want to provide password. What’s the point of a coffee shop if we want to do work but they don’t offer that to their customers.
I came for a beginner, but I ordered a panini croque monsieur with a side salad instead, and I regret my decision. There was no panini press involved. Where is the cheese on top? It was a toasted ham and cheese sandwich with a wilted spring salad.
Although picture only shows the wilted pieces of my salad, it was enough to make me lose my appetite. The sandwich tasted good, but it's not what I wanted.
This place is clearly relegated for its beignets and crepes. I'll come back for the crepe or beignet next time.

I wish there were more places like this. It’s my first time here and it’s just so cozy in the morning. Amazing food, staff were phenomenal and friendly, incredibly refreshing. Get your coffee, relax and wake up here. Lots of seating too. Favoriting this spot for when I’m in the area :)

Good cafe near Fruitvale Bart. They have many pastry/dessert options including French style crepes made to order and all the standard coffee drinks. They have indoor and outdoor seating but there are always people lurking around and parking can be tough around FV Bart.

I like the beignets here & hoped to get some for our afternoon coffee.The sign says they close at 6pm on Saturday but as soon as we walked in at 5pm the woman behind the counter said they were closed. At least put a sign on the door that you’re closing early. This is how to deter future customers. I wonder if management knows they closed down an hour early. They need to hire better people.
