    This happens to be my favorite coffee in the Bay Area. It just has the best flavor HANDS DOWN. No bitter notes, just smooth ass coffee & espresso! The owner is straight to the point and makes a great coffee. My go-to is usually iced oat milk latte (no sweeteners) and it's PERFECT! Highly recommend for a bold smooth coffee with NO bitter aftertaste!

    Stopped by here for a chai latte when visiting friends in the area one time. It's a cozy tea and coffee shop (& some snacks) with all outdoor seating. The owner let me know that it would take a little longer to make the chai latte. Was best loose herb based chai latte I've ever had! Strong and aromatic too. Definitely a neighborhood gem for the locals.

    This is the BEST coffee shop of all time! I absolutely love it here. It is such a cute, inviting place on Piedmont Avenue. The staff is extremely warm, friendly, and funny and makes you feel right at home as soon as you walk in! They not only make amazing coffee, they also form great friendships with their customers - often memorizing regular's coffee orders and making them as soon as they step inside (so you get your coffee pretty fast). They're super efficient but also provide nice conversation while you're waiting for your coffee that makes you feel so welcome. The shop is so cute! It is small but perfectly sized and the line is often out the door as this is a go to coffee shop for locals and everyone! You can tell everyone from the neighborhood loves it because they have so so many regulars. They are often busier starting around 10am and later, but they're always super efficient so the line doesn't move too slow. The layout of the shop is also so cute - they have a Polaroid wall of all the dogs that come into the shop and the owner of the shop even gives treats to the dogs, which is so nice and sweet! They also sell coffee beans, clothes, cookies, and these beautiful handmade bowls and cups. The coffee is amazing. My personal favorite is the 89 - I can't live without it, it is perfect in every way. It is made up of half and half, simple syrup, and a shot of espresso, shaken over ice. I once heard it described as a melted affogato. If you like a slightly sweet coffee where you can still taste the coffee flavor, this is the drink for you. It has a perfectly smooth and silky (almost thick) texture, with a strong espresso flavor that is perfectly complemented with the sweetness from the syrup. I love that the syrup is not too sweet or artificial tasting and the coffee is delicious. I believe they use a Jamaican-Guatemalan blend, and it is SO good. It is deep and rich in flavor and tastes very high quality. I have also tried their cold brew, drip coffee, oat milk latte, and hot chocolate and each was better than the next! They also have a small pastry case next to the register that's full of baked goods. I have yet to try their pastries but they get them from Starter Bakery (which I know is amazing) and they look SO GOOD. All in all, I love this place - it is definitely one of my favorite coffee shops of all time and I will continue to come in every single week, both for the coffee but also for the nice conversation and friendly staff. They're genuinely such awesome people and always put a smile on my face! I also really appreciate how consistent they are - you will always be receiving the BEST service here and the BEST coffee ever. When I don't come in for a while, I find myself missing it so much because I always leave feeling happy, satiated and excited to come back for more!
