A good sized cafe on fourth street. They serve coffee and some pastries and it's a nice cafe to do some work. There's also outdoor seating which is great for people watching when the sun is out. I was here on a weekend around 3pm and there were only 2(?) baristas. There was a line but the wait for the coffee was quick. read more

Really Enjoyed my honey lavender latte and purple mochi iced donut at Artis on a rainy day -- service was great and considering the number of people in front of me (6 or 7), did not take long for the order. It's a nice large space with lots of seating. There are also several tables outside which are covered by the roofline so you can still sit out there on a rainy day. I definitely plan to visit again next time I'm in the 4th street shopping area. The other bakery items looked really good as well. read more

Cute cafe in the 4th street area of Berkeley! Sunday afternoon there was plenty of parking about a block away (4th and Cedar or Virginia). The parking right in front of the cafe is metered. Such beautiful modern aesthetics. Lots of people camped out here working in their laptops. There's some indoor seating and a hightop bench on the front patio. I ordered a matcha latte. It came with cute coffee art (heart shaped milk poured). It was also filled to the very top. I had to take a sip before walking with it. The matcha latte was not very sweet. But it was good. They have seasonal drinks as well. Google listed them as having juice but they didn't have any when I went. I didn't try any of the pastries. But I saw they have a little section of pastries made by locals to benefit Ukraine. They also sell chocolate, bags of coffee, books, and brewing accessories. I'd come back if I were in the area. read more

Great Coffee and great service every day of the week and Great location. Give it a try when your shopping on 4th St.

excellent coffee - love their lattes and mochas!! even more excellent staff and baristas.

We didn't get to order drinks during our recent visit but we ordered donut, croissant with Nutella and mushroom empanada. Least we liked was the mushroom empanada. It was clean and simple. I loved the mochi donut. It's not the usual light and airy mochi donut; it's heavy and thick. The croissant is crunchy and buttery. So good! Place was clean. They had a sign 50% off on pastries but it turned out not until 5 pm (they should really not put it out until 5). Staff was nice. Parking can be challenging. read more

I stopped at Artis to grab some coffee and work on my laptop for a bit. I loved the amount of tables available, and the cute interior aesthetic. I ordered the small hot mocha with oat milk. The latte art was a nice touch! However, the mocha tasted like dirt! Not sure if they used 100% cacao or 100% dark chocolate, but it was bitter and awful. I am a dark chocolate fan myself, however this lacked any semblance of a normal mocha. Not sure how the other lattes taste, but if you come here I would advise against getting their mocha. read more

A great place to journal, WFH, co-work or read. Shoutsout to the baristas who always play good music. I'm always holding up my phone to shazam whenever I'm in, lol. Big and open seating area, although plugs are a bit limited but has never been a big problem. My usual is their chai latte, and recently tried the rose petal matcha which was pretty yummy! Parking is sometimes tough since it's on 4th street and metered parking is a pain. Love that they carry pasties from local bakeries. One of my fav cafes in the area. read more

Visited Artis during the Fourth Street parade event. I was looking for an independent coffee shop within this beautiful shopping district, and this one had an interesting menu that made me want to drop in. Very spacious interior with many individuals having coffee meet-ups or doing work on their devices. The menu seems to rotate a few seasonal flavors. The coffees you receive are smaller than what you would traditionally receive at a Peet's or Sbux for the same price. My partner got the butter toffee cappuccino, and commented that the taste was subtle among the high quality bean but present, but the highlight was that the drink kept her awake throughout the night. I got a cold brew with the honey lavender syrup added - very tasty lavender flavor, but I had to add a splenda just to pull out the flavor more and get the sweetness to what I prefer. The staff were working very hard and quite friendly. Space is extremely clean and there is a single bathroom that carried a line when I arrived. I am curious to come back to try one of the delicious-looking piroshki in the window and see what the flavor rotation are. read more

Artis has been under a new ownership for the last couple of years, and they've really done a fantastic job of turning this café into a community place. It's a great place to just purchase and hang out, and drink great coffee. The barista always very friendly, and they make the best espresso with milk steamed to PERFECTION! I'm an artis fan! read more

This place was a little hard to find, but I feel so lucky I stumbled across it on my way back to Southern CA. The real highlight of my visit was my cappuccino. My barista, Isabel, took the time to chat with me about the different coffee beans and brewing techniques, which made the experience even more enjoyable. I can't wait to head back for another cup! read more

Artís Coffee - Cappuccino - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Berkeley, California

4+ located in the nice shopping area on Fourth Street in Berkeley, this place serves both as a nice place to fuel up on caffeine before exploring the area or as a place to lounge and study or do work. I kinda joked with my sister in law that if it were set in LA it would probably be people writing their script, but here it's prob a VC proposal or working on the next big app. When you walk in, you're greeted with a great looking space and delicious coffee smells. They have food items for sale as well, but we only one in there cause we wanted a little pick me up and something to hold while exploring the rest the street. The folks there are super nice and efficient as I could imagine this place being busy pretty much all day. I ended up getting a medium coffee and a bag of beans. Definitely a nice spot and would come back to grab coffee if I'm in the area. read more

Found on this place on yelp and was excited to try their sweet mint matcha latte! Walked in and found the place a bit dirty. The service was decent and the drink was outstanding. 4 stars only because of the sweet mint matcha latte. One of the rare best ones I have tried! The bathroom was super dirty and would not even flush! for a 12 oz, feel that it was overpriced! I would not spend $8 for a latte! read more

Artís Coffee - Sweet Mint Matcha Latte and Cappuccino - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Berkeley, California

One of my favorite coworking/remote working spots when I used to be a UC Berkeley student & still a favorite whenever I visit Berkeley! I really enjoy the location in West Berkeley and how far away from campus it is. The big open minimalist space is a great working environment but not sure if it's the remaining result from the pandemic since I only started coming here afterward. It can be pretty crowded & hard to find a seat all day since people tend to stay and work a while. A good amount of indoor & outdoor seating with good Wi-Fi, some outlets, and a clean bathroom. They also sell a wide variety of coffee/tea accessories! I am not too knowledgeable about coffee but I do enjoy the flavored lattes as well as the seasonal drinks. I mainly go for the pierogis and can never leave without one or two. Always had a good time working here! read more

I've been here a few times and I enjoyed their drinks. Drinks are a bit pricey, but a great place to go and study! All the syrup used to make the drinks are made in house (for example the mint syrup was made by the employees using real mint leaf). The store is surprisingly very spacious for a coffee shop. There were a lot of seatings and item displayed for sale. The staffs were friendly and helpful. I would come back here again! read more

While there's no shortage of unique coffee shops in Berkeley, I decided to try Artis coffee based on a recommendation from my parents. Located right in the heart of the bustling 4th Street neighborhood, Artis Coffee is an ideal pit stop while browsing the shops. The cafe feels clean and spacious with a minimalist design and natural light. They also sell other local goods, such as Dandelion chocolate, which is one of my favorite brands. When I visited on a Sunday afternoon, there was only a short line to order and plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. I ordered an iced latte with oat milk, along with two other latte beverages. When I checked in through Yelp, I received a discount on my order. The latte was very smooth and creamy, and the espresso tasted rich and freshly-roasted. While Artis Coffee is not conveniently located near campus, I imagine it would be a great place to study or work on weekends. read more

Artís Coffee - Iced latte with oat milk - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Berkeley, California

Usually when I try new spots, I like to get a cortado or flat white to get a more clear sense of their espresso. I couldn't resist the creativity of their specialty drinks though. Went for the "tahini mole mocha" - was really great. Much more subtle than I was expecting. Not sweet like I was nervous about - had a flavor of mostly natural ingredients vs pumps of syrup. Surprisingly not spicy either. The mocha component drives the flavor. I was happy that it was a flat white size as well (not as large as a latte). The espresso itself played nicely with the flavors - smooth, non-acidic. Will return. read more

Artis serves up an exceptional vanilla latte! It has just the right amount of sweetness that isn't too overpowering or artificial tasting. I think what makes it different is that they make their syrup in-house. Will be back soon for another vanilla latte! read more

Was in Berkeley off 4th street post lunch on a Saturday and I wanted to grab some coffee to get me through the rest of the day. Located in a busy area and there's street and neighboring parking. Super busy on a Saturday afternoon filled with people meeting up, studying, and both indoor and outdoor seating. They also sell coffee beans and some treats. I got a chai tea latte with oat milk and the chai was pretty good. My friend got a good brew as well and it wasn't bad. Not a bad local spot/cafe to meet up with people. Next time I'd probably try a latte. The workers were very friendly and efficient. Check in on Yelp while you're there for 10% off of your purchase. read more

terrible service late this afternoon. Maybe it's too much effort for the baristas to answer questions? Maybe they're just lazy? whatever, IDGAF. First time in. Never going back. Shoutout to the one non-dickish with the long curly hair, who stepped in to rescue me from the oozing apathy. Thank you for your compassion. It's really not that difficult NOT to be an asshole. read more

Dining method: Dine-in (counter-serve) Speed: Not really fast (I waited about 10 minutes for a coffee) Item(s) ordered: iced cappuccino with almond milk The short answer: Artís is a beautiful place to get your morning (or afternoon, like I did) caffeinated beverage. Their house espresso is smooth, bright, and flavorful. I would recommend Artís as a fancy stop on your fancy walk through Berkeley. The long answer: It's a gorgeous place inside and though there was some waiting involved, it's a relaxing, aesthetically-pleasing place to spend your wait. I ordered an iced cap with almond milk. It did take a while to come out. Also, they told me it was almond milk though I watched them put oat milk in it (and it tasted like oat). It wasn't important to me, but for allergen reasons, this is good to note! Price-wise, they are pricier, but it's pretty typical for this upscale area. Would visit again! read more

This is a really cool spot to grab some coffee. I was with a bunch of people from out of town, walking through the neighborhood, and we decided on this place to take a quick caffeine break. The space itself is massive, with modern vibes and scattered seating. There was also some seating outside, with a great view for people watching. This is the type of place that will satisfy any coffee lover. In terms of the coffee, the vanilla latte was pretty much what you'd expect. The coffee seemed to be of high quality and had a solid taste. If you're looking for the classic coffee shop with tons of couches and work/study areas, this might not your spot, given it is pretty loud and busy. However, it does the job if you're looking for something on the go! read more

It's been awhile since my last visit to this cafe in Berkeley since moving to the South Bay. Very spacious with tables inside and out. The coffee and mushroom piroshky was nothing great but nothing really bad. Maybe, it was the mediocre service that made it just OK. Or, maybe it was because I have had better piroshky at the famous Piroshky, Piroshky in Seattle's Pike Place Market. Parking here on 4th Street can be challenging especially on the weekends. read more

Super ride staff. I am building a smaller version of their roaster, so l asked if I could just peek at the roaster in the corner. He said.. super emphatically. NO, then turned away. I've almost never been spoken to so rudely. I could have done it without asking. But I was trying to be nice. Then I picked up the $5 Cortado... was cold. It's weird to say but I left shaking inside, the guy was that aggressive. read more

This is a really nice and spacious coffee spot! I came around noon on a Monday and it wasn't too crowded. Upon glancing at the menu, the one that immediately caught my eye was the cold brew milk tea. I've never seen or heard of something like that before, so I was super intrigued since I love both milk tea and cold brew. The drink is defaulted to come with oat milk which is great because it's what I'd prefer anyways. They also serve it with some orange peels on top, which later get mixed in. The drink itself was really good -- super smooth, not too bitter or sour, and the perfect level of sweetness. I'm not really sure where the milk tea part comes in though since I didn't taste it, but the drink was still good nonetheless. I'd come back to get some work done or just to try more of the menu! read more

I tried the Butter Toffee Cappuccino and had a taste of the mocha. These drinks were wonderful. The Butter Toffee Cappuccino tasted quite literally like liquified toffee with espresso. It is quite sweet by default however, so keep that in mind if you aren't a fan of such things. The mocha was the opposite - it wasn't very sweet. Despite this, it had an extremely deep chocolate flavor, which might have been due to the fact that it was made with Dandelion chocolate. Both drinks were excellent and I'm happy I tasted both ends of the spectrum. read more

Artis is located toward the north end of the 4th street shopping area. There isn't a lot of extended (over 1 hour) free parking in area, so if you've got a car, you're likely going to need to pay for parking. The lot at 1608 4th St is just a block and a half from Artis and the parking is $1.50/hr. The shop itself has a lot of seating but most of it was taken when we stopped in around 11am. I can see this being a great place to do work - tons of natural light from the big front windows to the shop, lots of seating, etc - but suggest getting there early if that's your intention. As far as the drinks go, we tried an iced matcha latte with oat milk and an iced latte with oat milk. Both drinks were good, but not amazing, especially given the price (~$8/each with alt milk). They feature pastries from Firebrand Bakery, which looked amazing, but we weren't in the mood for any food. If your primary goal is to sit down and work and you care less about the quality of your drink, this is a perfect spot. However, if you're looking for a really great latte, you'll be disappointed. I suggest walking 10-15 mins south to CoRo - they not only roast their own beans, but the coffee (espresso and pour over) is amazing. read more

Their matcha latte is probably the best in the area but comes at a pretty steep cost (even relative to the other 4th street options). Nonetheless, it makes for a nice treat. They also have a solid selection of pastries in the morning. read more

Really spacious coffee shop with great lighting and seating. We had an Ethiopian pour over and the toffee cappuccino and loved both. Baristas are really friendly and the beans are well priced. That toffee cappuccino is still living rent free in my head. We were pleasantly surprised by how much we liked it here. Looking forward to the next time we can come back ! read more

Y'all take your time & have attitude. Came in around 12:40. To the owner: please train them better on customer service! Remember, if the service is good you will get more returning customers! Coffee is good but for some reason couldn't get oatmilk on my pumpkin spice? Barista (male) said it's premade so I guess thats why (not sure if he was honest because he had some sort of attitude) I understand some people have bad days but that doesn't make it right to project bad vibes to your customers. read more

Too much milk in drinks. Served lukewarm. Pretzels dry and okd tasting. No one knew where a knife was.

In terms of coffee taste, this is probably one of my favorites in the bay area. Wish it wasn't as busy as it is. It's hard to get a seat

Good coffee, super rude service. Thought I heard my name called, walked up to confirm and got a stern "I'll call yours when it's ready" along with an angry look. Stood close by to make sure I heard correctly next time. Eventually heard my name and went to collect my coffee. I had to ask which one it was since there were 6 of them unmarked on the counter, and barely got acknowledged. The barista looked like I'd just insulted her children or something. Yikes, this place. Won't go back if I can avoid it. read more

The coffee drinks are mid at best - like they are designed by someone trying to be interesting who doesn't have a great pallet. It's also the most overpriced coffee around. For that cost, it should be delicious, not "well that was an... experience." read more

Solid 4 STARS! I love the iced lavender matcha latte! And yes, they make the lavender syrup from fresh lavender. They once had a mint matcha and I was obsessed with that one. Again, real mint was used to make the syrup. I can spend hours in here just studying. Also, they have indoor/outdoor seating and there's plenty of space inside. I'll definitely keep coming back here. read more
