  • Hey friends! This review is about sustainability only. I so appreciate your attention to detail when it comes to how folks here can use reusable mugs, and also limit their impact on the environment via plastic pollution. The real silverware, the real glassware, the real mugs, the real spoon for the bowl of sugar, and the recycled napkins are an excellent touch! That said, I was a bit disheartened to see how many people were enjoying their coffee to stay, but in to go cups. I understand that these to go cups might be compostable. But a quick glance into the recycling and trash bins shows that there is no delineation between the two. I wonder if there are ways that the barista can work clearly articulate the for-here option, by asking if people are staying to work or meet a friend. I was also a bit disheartened to see the sale of plastic bottled water here. By 2050, there will be more plastic in the ocean than fish. And over 95% of the plastic that we try to recycle does not actually get recycled. But rather ends up in landfills, oceans, or burned in incinerators. By now, there are tons of options for at least better water. Maybe aluminum canned? Thank you for considering my feedback. All in all, I was impressed by your Sustainable offerings. Just would love to see some better communication to folks dining in, who would be able to skip the trash made entirely. Thanks again! Lovely courtyard too.

  • Seating: While there are numerous tables, especially outdoors, it can get crowded during peak hours, particularly when classes are in session. Finding a seat may require some patience. Power Outlets: Some visitors have noted that while there are outlets available, they can be limited, especially during busy times. It's advisable to bring a portable charger if you plan to work for extended periods. Considerations Only Halal food is (chicken Panini) Otherwise Great coffee spot near UC Berkeley with a chill vibe. Delicious espresso drinks — the Iced Strada Bianca Mocha is a must-try Cozy indoor seating with large windows + charming outdoor patio with string lights Perfect for studying, casual hangouts, or people-watching Can get busy during peak hours, so seating might be limited Friendly staff and relaxed, community-focused atmosphere

  • Nice, cosy coffee shop with light fare like sandwiches and pastries. Indoor and outdoor seating for nice days. My coffee here was rather good. I didn’t get sandwiches but those looked good too.

  • The location of this place makes it a perfect place to catch on the vibe of this university town. For most of the times this place has lot of traffic but it has lot of sitting indoor and outdoor to sit down and work. Regular black coffee tasted reasonably well and had a smooth yet bold texture. Blueberry scone tasted good and wasn’t overly sweet.

  • Amazing coffee! Give Bianca Mocha a try if you around.
