Really liked the gluten free beef empanada, and gluten free avocado toast was great, esp for $7.99. They also have GF chocolate chip cookie but today it would take about 10 mins to bake individually. My latte was solid, oat milk was creamy but somehow could use more kick. 5 stars for the overall lovely service , and 5 for the funky, neighborhood feel, and l, just so happy when places go the extra mile for GF and vegan, thank you!

We stopped in at the recommendation of our local hosts. If you’re a Starbucks person or a cop, don’t come here. This is a real neighborhood cafe. The community is outstanding, the people are incredibly nice and social, and the chai I had was amazing. Vegan baked goods are also delicious. Definitely a highlight of our stay in Oakland!

Casual, airy cafe with rad gift shop of goods made by local artists. Cafe workers were friendly, and the empanadas were delicious. I’ll definitely be back soon.

Wonderful coffee place! The menu has lots of really yummy options, the staff is kind and polite and service is fast. The atmosphere is cozy and they have lots of work from local artists around. I really liked the avocado toast, it had a sauce that was good.

This is the place to Lime in. Open air feeling, old school vibes and a part of the vibrant community that Fruitvale represents. I first tried a Mazapan latte in Newman, CA last September. This is yummy too and the guava coyota to go with. Plus great conversations with locals.
