I had been looking for a good local coffee shop in the area and decided to give this one a shot and…read moreit didn't disappoint! First off, I absolutely loved the ambiance. It was so cute, cozy, and spacious. It was pretty packed when we visited, so there weren't many seats available initially, but we ended up finding one. I tried the seasonal pumpkin latte, and it was really good! I especially love when baristas take the time to make latte art, even when it's busy and it's such a nice little touch. My husband tried the green juice, which we both enjoyed, although we felt it was a bit on the pricier side for the serving size. I also tried the chili crisp toast and empanada. The chili crisp toast was definitely my favorite!! I loved it and would absolutely order it again! Overall, a really cute spot with good drinks, food, and a great atmosphere. I'd definitely come back!

I brought over their huge bowls of coffee and matcha which were excellent props :) Black Sesame Cappuccino (Large $9.20): I had a gift card, so I splurged on a flavored cappuccino. It was perfect!! Sesame can be a strong flavor, but I still tasted the coffee (probably because of how many espresso shots it had as a large). The interior is beautifully decorated just like their Danville location, especially the wall of plants. I also love the quiet room tucked away at the back near the bathroom, more speakeasy vibes. I wish they didn't close so early at 4:00pm!

We got the cardamom Turkish coffee which was really good. Service was unfortunately painfully slow - the place was near empty and I understand it takes time to craft the drinks but 15 minutes later we were still waiting! We also got one cheese borek which was great! The Place is also a little steep - three coffees ( two were double espresso size ) and a pastry ran at $33 That said the staff were nice, enjoyed my coffee and glad we gave it a try

I got off work and wanted to take my son to get a smoothie. It was after 7pm and my regular…read moresmoothie place was closed. We tried this spot and I was a little skeptical since they have coffee, smoothies, random desserts and pizza?? making a very mixed and random menu....usually not a good sign. I ordered the berry bliss smoothie and my son got the signature smoothie. The berry smoothie was average tasting for $12+. It was nothing special. I would have liked to add protein powder but the $3 add on was a lot so I felt slightly defeated in not having protein added to my smoothie. My son got his and said "it tastes like nothing". I thought he was exaggerating and I tasted it myself. No, he was right. It actually tasted like nothing. It had no flavor at all. I'm not sure how that happens. He threw it away. It was very disappointing. We also got the basque cheesecake which was actually pretty good. Overall, for a $34 price tag including a $12 smoothie that we threw away, would I come here again? No, I won't be back. But we tried it and this is my experience. Go see what you think.

You walk in and you see all the merchandise. The menu was simple and easy to order from. They even had an option to add CBD to your drink. My husband a simple cold brew and added CBD.

I decided to take myself here on a solo date one Friday morning…read more Parking is simple, with street parking and free garage across the street. This place is filled with people doing work, chatting with friends, and no one felt rushed. The barista was patient with me and explained that this place is completely vegan. The food also seemed to be on the healthier side, with attention paid to quality of ingredients. My oatmilk latte was deliciously creamy and I was shocked at how much I loved the lemon raspberry donut. The donut was moist , fresh and not too sweet. I sat on the comfy couch and journaled. I also liked that outdoor seating was available. I really love this cafe. I only wish I lived closer!

Unfortunately, my first impression was that the customer service could have been a bit warmer, didn't feel too friendly. I was also a little disappointed to receive my coffee in a to-go cup, as I had planned to stay awhile and would have preferred a mug. I noticed other customers were served in mugs, so that was interesting. The latte was also on the pricier side, it was between $7-$8 ! I ordered a pumpkin spice latte, which I did enjoy! It was nice and strong, and the latte art is always a nice touch. The shop was quite busy, and I ended up sharing a table with a stranger, but it seems like a popular spot for people to work or study. I appreciate that there's plenty of seating available, although the atmosphere felt a bit busy and the space wasn't quite as cozy or comfortable as I had hoped for a longer study session.

It tasted pretty standard. nothing amazing but got the job done ! Parking: BART parking complex ( free on weekends) Vibes: Really open with couches and chairs, great for reading or catching up with friends. Theres not really tables (more like coffee tables), so its not much of WFH/study spot. However given the quiet ambiance and open lighting, I really enjoyed this spot and got some work done on my ipad :) This location is tucked away, but if you happen to be taking bart on your commute, theres a pick up window which is great. Id probably stop by again if I was near bart WC !

It's amazing how this place has grown, and I'm glad to see what they've done over the years. Their roastery is based in Oakland, but they have started to branch out to Contra Costa and other areas of Alameda County, which I have found quite surprising. I decided that trying their newest store out in Walnut Creek would do it justice -- and indeed, it tastes just like the one I tried in Oakland -- vibes, coffee drink, and pastry, everything with it's local taste. I got an easy vanilla latte -- and a butter croissant. Both tasted just as yummy as they say in other foodies' reviews. The only downside is the guest patio next to their stop -- I wasn't even sure if I was even allowed to sit there. I wish they could have made it clearer for other patrons so that they wouldn't get confused like I did.

The service was great- I believe I met the owner and she was very friendly, bubbly, kind and answered all my questions! Went with the banana milk Vietnamese coffee and the Sakura matcha (swapped with coconut milk) The quality of the Vietnamese coffee is VERY good and I absolutely loved the banana milk coffee! Would get again!!! I enjoyed the Sakura matcha as well. I think my partner did not like the flavor combo of Sakura and coconut milk, but I still thought it was good. I love that this place is connected to the library as well. Definitely will be coming back to try more!

Drinks were great. My husband's coconut coffee affogato-style drink was really good. Icy- I would…read moresay -- rather than affogato, I think. Still really good. Smooth. My pandan coco latte was actually really well balanced. Most places skimp on the pandan flavor. I sometimes hesitate because of the bright green color. I know it's the natural color of pandan, I just don't like colored foods with unnatural colors like orange or blue. As a child, I wouldn't eat fruit loops and even though I love chocolate, I hated how coco puffs turned the milk brown. I deducted one star because my husband said no one acknowledged him when he came in. A man was at the register and he completely ignored my husband but when the girls were finished making his drink they greeted him. And I will say time and time again, I'm big on customer service. I won't return to a place with abysmal service. lol I will stand on my hypocrisy right now because these drinks were delicious and I would for sure stop by again if we're in town. We're from fairfield but we come out here a lot. Next time welcome people. I am always like wth when coffee shops feel cold, pretentious or angry. Did you notice a lot of baristas at small business coffee places are not happy and pull down the whole vibe. Especially the dark, moody trendy ones. Jeez.

I was extremely excited to try this coffee shop after being aware of their use of Straus milk…read more Unfortunately, instead of a first time pleasurable experience, I was left pretty disappointed. For starters , there was no acknowledgment/greeting upon arrival. This immediately made me not want to spend my hard earned money here! The barista didn't offer any help or clarification on the menu after I explained that this is my first time visiting. I was interested in trying some of their unique pastries but due to broken machinery , they were extremely limited on pastries. I brush that inconvenience under the rug, because that is obviously out of their control. So I proceeded with ordering a breakfast sandwich on a croissant, then the barista informs me that they are out of croissants , okay.. no biggie, so I told him I'll have the sandwich with sourdough with an additional up charge to add bacon and ham. 3 minutes after paying , the barista then tells me they are also out of sourdough... so at this point, I told the barista to just use whatever bread they had available. I then received my ice vanilla bean mocha , which was a 4/10 . Nothing spectacular about this drink. Would rather have my boyfriend make me a latte with his AeroPress. Lastly, I receive my breakfast sandwich and realized after leaving Lever Coffee shop that they failed to add my Bacon and Ham on the sandwich, which is a $1.95 up charge!! Mind you I came in for my coffee/breakfast 10 minutes after they opened!! As far as service and food, I wasn't pleased at all. Especially because I decided to try Lever coffee instead of going to my OG coffee shop (3 cross coffee in Castro valley). If management is reading this , please practice food preparation and quality of service a little better amongst your workers !!
