Casual place for lunch and brunch. I love their quinoa bowls and fresh juices. I'm vegan so finding a place that not only has options for me but it's also healthy is hard. Will be back.
Great local place. Doesn’t pretend to be anything it isn’t. Owner / manager Hazem (or Hazim) is very kind and thoughtful. He is a worldly man with many interests and a big heart. I enjoyed my large latte, and my partner enjoyed her hot chocolate (and is a regular here). Would definitely recommend!
It was okay; the place was clean and the server wasn't rude.
It's OK. Owner was a nice guy, polite, Coffee is fine, had a cup of drip. Atmosphere is loud refrigeration from drink coolers, and the place could use a cleaning, the pastries were in saran wrap from yesterday. Had a good walk getting here.
Place to start your day. Pleasant interior, variety of drinks, coffee, chai tea, cappuccino and so much more.
Most amazing customer service in the Bay Area. I talk to the owner of the café and he said they were in business for 14 years hoping to see this place go on forever. Nothing like supporting your local business
Amazing place with perfect atmosphere for students. Loved the salmon cream cheese bagel and is so affordable! Hazzim was pleasant and funny and adds a unique charm to your morning routine. Please stop by and support this local Berkeley business!!!
A favorite when I'm in the nearby! Peaceful, healthy made-on-the-spot sandwiches with greens on the side (and other choices) plus yummy snacky-desserts and always-good coffee. Engaging works by local artists on the walls. The proprietor may not say much, but if you're one who listens to life, his every action seems to me to speak volumes. I always feel restored after taking a break there, and even when it gets busy again as we emerge from the shutdowns, I remember that the wonderful vibe was unshakeable.
Cool beans, great staff, friendly atmosphere!!!!
Mudrakers Cafe is located in the outer edge of elmwood. I often come for cuppa joe and a bite before heading up the street to willard park. The place is relatively calm and quiet with the occasional of every now and then people moving chairs to adjust comfort and socializing. Don't let the size fool you, there's another room just up the staircase and there's plenty of outlets around to power your device. Service is always nice, the staff are efficient and eager to get you going. Menu price gradually went up over the years, but that's totally acceptable in today's economy. The owner is often seen there on most days helping out so you'll need to be patient when there are a few people ahead of you. Overall, it's a nice all-around coffee shop that serves the community with affordable made per order food and beverage without the hipster vibe. #elmwood #meteredparking #madeperorder #take-out #calmvibe #student-friendly #affordable #friendly #consistent #study #mediterranean #salad #sandwich #turkishcoffee #ultimatecookie #fruitsalad #pastry #candy #chips #seasonaldessert #muffin #bagel
