Cute little shop, super friendly staff, awesome service!

Just a nice old-fashioned local neighborhood coffee shop

Great place. Coffee is ono of a kind.

I've been coming here for over 20 years. I love supporting this small business. They have organic coffee and teas, and smoothies, bagels, delicious pastries, healthier ones too. Every time I visit, I'm relieved they are still there.

Had a pretty terrible latte here. The espresso inside tasted burnt and bitter. Oat milk tasted like it was expired. The regular sized cup was $8 as well

We loved our caramel blended coffees! It was awesome and the pastries were good too! Great experience and wonderful customer service!

Excellent organic and fair trade certified coffee. Their espresso drinks are the best!

How this place has a 4.6 rating here is beyond me. It must be the family and friends! I took my 8-person riding group there on Sat based on the rating here and I regret it. Quite disappointed. My cappuccino cost $6 and it was no good -- bitter and off. $4.95 for single and $5.95 for double! He never asked me if I wanted single or double. $6 for a cappuccino in Castro Valley is a ripoff. For $5 I can get the best cappuccino in the top cafes in the Bay Area. I also got a piece of supposedly savory pastry with cheese and mushroom but the base was like a sweet cake. Pretty gross. When I told him he said he didn't make it! Well, you sell it; you should know. Btw he doesn't take any type of card payment in this day and age, which to me is a sign of dishonesty. I am being generous giving it 3-stars.

Extremely costly!!! I paid $7 for a latte. Probably because they use organic coffee. It has a nice cozy patio facing the street to sit and drink coffee.

Vince is the best. Best blended ice coffee drinks in the bay.
