The staff are dope and always take the time to answer questions, and there are some fun items on the menu! Great little grab & go local spot (no seating inside as it's very small!). Good coffee and good vibes!

HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. People with food allergies, AVOID.

I ordered a hot matcha and specifically asked for oat milk. I confirmed that it was oat and not whole milk twice as I am lactose intolerant. Then, when I got my order it tasted funny. I asked one staff member if it was oat and not whole milk and shared I had an allergy they said they would check. The staff member who made my drink apologized saying it was whole and they both looked at me, shrugging. At this point, no one had asked me for a refund or offered to make me my correct drink. I had to be the one to request a new drink and the refund as I was battling nausea immediately. The one who staff member who messed up my order did apologize and agreed to my request for a refund…which I still haven’t gotten. The other apolgoized and then I told them “it’s okay, but you guys need to be more careful as I have an allergy.” No response. Everybody makes mistakes, but the lack of accountability from the staff at this company was awful. I am now sitting here trying not to vomit as I have meetings. Also, I have drank cow milk in years for spiritual reasons so not only was this a health risk but also a detriment to my emotional wellbeing. Safe to say I will never be returning.

Blah drip coffee. Mid muffin and pistachio berry croissant. Mocha isn’t great either. Sad to say, most Starbucks drinks and food are better. Service also really bad with folks who don’t even want to be there. Do not recommend at all.

Super tiny cafe. The coffee was really great and the pastries even more so.

Just stopped by this morning excited for the cold brew! It is the best. Though when I arrived in the store. I was not welcomed by either of the baristas. Yes it is a small shop but there were only three of us in the area waiting for coffee. No customers waiting, and it was raining outside. One of the baristas asked is to stand outside the shop. We really love the coffee but the service is not welcoming. Hope you can save this company that has a great product.

Weird that other reviewers complain about waiting their turn to enter the shop. It’s obvious the shop’s standing area is small and when you enter, is intuitive.

Their dirty chai latte and vanilla latte are delicious. I usually don’t like syrups bc they’re too sweet but theirs are perfect. The baristas are kind and very hardworking.

Perfect espresso drinks at great prices. No surcharge for non-dairy milks (THANK YOU). Wonderful baristas. Highly recommended.

Cute lil local shop in Oakland. I got the cinnamon latte with Almond milk. It was DELICIOUS!
Not too sweet perfect amount of cinnamon.
They make their syrups in house which a love.

I liked this location better than the ferry building location.
If you’re in the area make sure you stop by!

Great espresso and iced americano. Friendly staff. Veggie scone was killer--like cheddar broccoli soup in the best way.
