    A solid coffee shop! This place serves Paru matcha and coffee beans from Dune Coffee, which is a huge plus. The espresso‑based drinks and matcha are great. They have a small counter where you order, and there's usually a line -- sometimes it takes a bit to get your drink, but it's worth the wait. They also have an outdoor patio, which is a nice spot to sit. Their menu includes fresh, local, ingredient‑forward dishes and a nice wine selection that I haven't tried yet. Overall, a great spot for matcha, coffee, and a relaxed vibe.

    Outdoor space! This is a nice chill hipster spot very much needed on Adams Ave with lunch tables on a patio. I had a cappuccino and it had very strong espresso taste which was great, good coffee here. The strawberry ricotta bread was good but a bit expensive at $13 for it being a snack size. I appreciated the grandma plate and the baristas bringing it out of me so I didn't have to get up. Great for catching up with friends or a short WFH session, will def be back!

    Cute little coffee shop right on Adams! The guy who took my order and my waitress was super nice. I ordered the honey sea salt latte, vanilla matcha with Meyer lemon cold foam, and the tuna sandwich. The coffee was yummy, decent for the price. The matcha was not for me, i didn't enjoy the type of matcha that was used and I was sitting outside in the shade and it started to curdle. The Meyer lemon cold foam was yummy on its own, i wish i ordered it with my coffee instead. The tuna sandwich is delicious but it only comes à la carte. Would have been great with a pickle or some pickled red onions. I saved half and ate it later at home retoasted, with pickles and chips 8.7/10 for the tuna sandwich!

    This was a cute cafe that I visited in July of 2024. We ordered at the counter and sat outside. I chose the house cured lox and my friend opted for the cold cut sandwich. We chose got a tea and coffee, but I don't remember the names LOL. The salmon lox was really good and I got to try my friends sandwich as well. There was plenty of meat and the baguette was the perfect texture. Since it was a warm day, there were lots of flies buzzing around, so it made it a bit difficult to enjoy our food. I would love to come back and try their other menu items!

    Came across this spot while walking around the neighborhood and was immediately drawn to the huge outdoor seating area. There aren't any indoor tables, but the outdoor setup is spacious and inviting. I ordered a latte, which was good. There was also a DJ playing music outside, I'm not sure if it was a special event or just part of the regular vibe. In the backyard, there was a small cart selling chicken noodle soup that looked very popular as well.

    I popped into Bica on an early Saturday afternoon for a solo brunch and I was NOT disappointed! Both my hot latte (honey sea salt) and my iced latte (orange cardamom) were absolutely phenomenal. And don't pass up their food options! I had the Tuna Conserva sandwich - best tuna sandwich I've had in my life! Featuring local albacore, roasted peppers, mayo, green olive tapenade, and lemony arugula. 13/10 recommend! Service was excellent despite a bit of a line, and super chill vibes, even sitting at a table on the sidewalk. I'm looking forward to returning. :)

    The coffee here is really delicious! I got a honey sea salt latte and was surprised at how smooth the coffee was, and they got the mild sweetness just right with that hint of honey. Service was fast and friendly, ambiance was casual but inviting. Street parking only. The patio area was shaded and it was really nice to enjoy the warm weather outside. My friend got the orange cardamom latte and really enjoyed her drink as well. I tried the salmon and black radish kimchi tartine- it was beautifully presented and had an interesting combination of flavors. I can't say it was really delicious, but it wasn't bad either. I'd try some of their other sandwiches next time if I'm hungrier! The ingredients themselves were good quality.

    Cool coffee shop! There is a DJ in the back and the place was popping on a Sunday morning. Tried their lemon lychee latte, didn't taste the lychee at all but the drink itself was smooth and super tasty. I liked the light lemon hint. The honey sea salt was also fantastic!

    Not worth $17

    Stopped in for early lunch, got the tuna sandwich and a cold pressed juice $25. It was nothing special, tuna served on a toasted sourdough bread arugula pesto tomatoes it was good but definitely not 17 dollar good

    Only choice is huge pastry and small coffee. I prefer lg or even med sized coffee and a healthier portion of pastry.

    Think I'm kind of just over this place now. They only sell giant pastries and small coffees. I'd rather it be the other way around. I don't want to pay $6 for a huge carrot cake that three people can share or $4 for a small coffee. Can you please make smaller loaves for $4 instead and sell a large coffee for like $4.50? I don't know. But I go to a coffee shop for coffee. Not overwhelming amounts of pastry. Please reconsider your food and drink portion/sizes.

    I am a big fan of Bica. I ordered a hot Lemon lychee vanilla latte. It sounded so unique, I had to get it. It was tasty and not too sweet. The flavor combo is perfect. I didn't taste the lychee, but the vanilla and lemon really stood out. I'd order it cold next time. Matcha seems popular here too. For food, I went with the ricotta tartine. Oh my gosh. It was heavenly. I love how thick the bread is, the ricotta was creamy, not too cheesy. All of the ingredients used were fresh and balanced well together. It did take a while to get my coffee, but there was only one barista at the time. Ambiance is cute and quaint. There's only outside seating available. Free street parking as well.

    Mondays are industry night at Bica and wow, it was amazing! Bica also has dinner service in the summer and they host other events on their patio. The barista was so friendly and kind. We got teas and coffees to pair with our food from Ming Ouns kitchen (the Monday vendor feature) and we enjoyed our food on the outside patio. Vibes were immaculate and we can't wait to be back for their morning and evening hours for Bica. They also have a little pantry with wine and other items. Street parking wasn't terrible on a Monday night.

    Jam ricotta Tartine. Honey sea salt latte. Espresso cup.

    The ambiance was nice. Very relaxing. Only downside of going was the back yard seating area was filled due to an event. And there was limited seating outside the coffee shop. I do want to try the tuna sandwich and a pastry cookie. Unfortunately, there wasn't any when I went. Service was spectacular.

High quality and unique options with fun flavors. The shop is relatively small with seating in and outside. There are also records for sale and they have a really cool curated selection.

This neighborhood is filled with all kind of coffee/tea places, however Fuzz Coffee was a bit difficult to find as they didn't have much signage indicating their presence. A small sidewalk sign that said 'Coffee & Records' along with a label on the front window was the extent of the identification. Parking was either curbside, or you could pay for a space in a lot just a bit up the street which was what I did. The inside had limited seating consisting of a countertop along the front window and a bench with some stools that surrounded very small round tables. A merchandise rack was on the right wall when you walked in. A collection of vinyl records was in the back left corner. The menu board was posted on the wall to the right of the service counter. The choice of beverages was around a dozen, but a seasonal menu added a few more items. I ordered an Iced Latte with whole milk. The addition of Honey Cinnamon incurred a one dollar surcharge. The barista quickly prepared my drink as I was nearly the last customer for the day. I didn't taste much honey cinnamon flavor so that topping wasn't really worth it. The small tables were a bit awkward as they were elevated quite a bit higher than the stool/bench. The surface area could not have been larger than a vinyl record for comparison (see my photo). I gave a three star rating for my visit to Fuzz Coffee.

I tried the golden grove matcha (matcha drink blended with banana puree) and it was sooo delicious and refreshing. Of course, can't leave without trying their sweet croissants you see all over social media. Our group shared 2 - the midnight garden (pistachio + chocolate) and the strawberry roma (with a cheesecake filling). Both served warm, both are comforting and rich in flavor. The space inside is so much larger than anticipated, with ample of seating and beautiful dècor. There is so much to see inside, including a shop of imported Italian goodies like olives, jams, chocolate bars, cookies, and more. Staff is the friendliest I have met in a while, going above and beyond with taking our orders and being attentive. I look forward to coming back and bring a friend to try more of their sweet croissants and drinks. Getting there can be a bit tricky - if you miss the entrance, you'd have to make a U-turn or go around to return. But other than that, once you take the correct entrance there are signs leading to their parking lot.
