A short walk from my attorneys office and near Chinatown. On a hot day I found this place to grab an ice cold drink to hide from the sun and heat. To my surprise there were virgin micheladas and Bloody Marys !!! So of course I had to get a Michelada ( virgin) very friendly service, clean and larger than it looks from the outside. They have great menu for a small cafe including chicken sandwiches! My Michelada was soooo good ice cold perfect mix of tajin, lemon, celery and some slices of fresh tomato ! So crisp and perfect ! I ordered a matcha for my hubby and he loved it ! Looking forward to trying more on my next attorney office visit ! read more

Cafe Uccello - Virgin Michelada - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Oakland, California

Place looks awesome. I've actually been meaning come here for a while, but never a good time to do so. The service was excellent, I know I asked a lot of questions lol. The Angus burger was excellent! I love the sauce it came with, that spicy kick was so good. The burger is very good with it with out so if you don't have good spice tolerance, it fine. It doesn't make any less delicious. The sali matcha smoothie? Wonderful and not overly sweet. They do have happy hrs that I'm probably going to come by and check out a Sat at some point. read more

Came here for the first time and will definitely be going back! Super friendly vibes, customer service, and large menu including lots of vegan options! I got a hot rose cardamom latte with oat milk and it was delicious! There was also plenty of seating inside and a few people were even working on their laptops. I really liked the welcoming community feel of this cafe and will be recommending it to others! read more

I go here often and they're pretty good. Mostly coffee and drinks though so I can't speak to the food much. Service is decent, there are one or two workers with a significantly positive attitude and good energy consistently. A few more who could use some adjustment but it's Oakland so hey, whatcha expect? Ambiance is casual with enough seating to hang out even when it's a bit on the busier side. Prices can be a bit high considering quality control ain't always there but all in all it's fine. A good regular spot to grab something light. read more

My guy lives a few blocks from here. His go-to is a lox bagel with cream cheese on asiago bagel with a side of their garlic potatoes. I finally got to try it. Here it goes. Clean restroom, clean restaurant. Friendly service. Latte was nothing special, but it tasted good and was reasonably priced. I ordered a croissant with spinach, onion, egg and mayo. It was delicious. I am not a Mayo person. But this blended in nicely. Restaurant has extra tables so you can spaciously enjoy your meal while working on your laptop. Or enjoying time with a friend. Oh and my guys potatoes. Order those. Maybe not just before a first date. But definitely order them. I will definitely be back. read more

This local cafe is hands down one of my top 5 favorite spots in Oakland. My husband and I come here at least once a week, and my go to order is the California chicken sandwich (I always ask for no onions!). They serve the sandwich with homemade chili oil sauce *chef kiss*!!! If you're in the mood for it, I highly recommend the taro latte. Not only the food is delightful, but Jasmine and Richard are the other reason that keep us coming back. They are warm, conversational, and kind, which makes us feel so comforting just to be in their presence Last but not least, the space is so cool, we LOVE the drawings and being able to add to the creativity as customers. Thank you Jasmine and Richard for keeping the door open of such a gem of a place! read more

first time and definitely not a last time! food was so delicious and perfectly spicy. I got a egg cheese and turkey bacon croissant.

I love Cafe Uccello! The folks that work there are so nice and friendly and the food is terrific and the prices are more than fair for the quality and portion size! I love the turkey and the portobello mushroom panini (respectively). Their garlic potatoes are so delicious, my partner and I always have to get them when ordering food. We mostly come there for the delicious juices. My partner loves smoothies but hates bananas, which can be very limiting for him. Uccello has a big selection of banana-free options (and plenty with bananas, if desired). His favorites are the apri mango with chamoy spices (kind of like bebere/tagine spice) and the taro smoothies. The smoothies have milk, but the staff are more than happy to substitute with non-dairy milk. There are also chills, which are fruit juices blended with ice, which are perfect for hot days and lighter to drink. He also recommends the recovery juices for those days when he needs something more healthy feeling and restorative. We like hanging out here while waiting for May burritos next door. He'll get a delicious juice and I will sip on a Modelo while we wait. The ambiance is great for sitting around temporarily or longer, as I see folks camped out with their laptops and coffee. read more

me and my girlfriend decided to try a new spot this morning for breakfast, I got there bacon egg and cheddar bagel and my girlfriend had the turkey bacon croissant, to say they were delicious is a genuine understatement, it was outstanding, They also had a variety of spice options that are very customizable, so you can really get what YOU want. Not only was there food amazing their drinks were simply some of the best i've had, again they had a ton of variety and you can customize your coffee down to the type of grounds you want to use. And lastly the most important part the staff is very friendly and helpful. They a truly doing. a great job here!! read more

First of all this food is BUSSINNNN!!!!! I ordered the breakfast croissant with turkey sausage, egg and substitute cheddar for pepper jack. Along a dirty chai (house made chai with a shot of espresso) with oat milk. The croissant is nice and flaky. They use REAL eggs and REAL CHEESE. The turkey sausage got to be house-made because it taste like love. This is a great atmosphere to get some work done. They have a large sitting area that gives a homey feel with markers to write on the wall. I definitely made the right choice of where to have breakfast today and in the future because I will be back! The staff is super friendly. Each item was walked over to where I was sitting from behind the counter. Royal treatment :-* read more

Don't let the looks of a normal cafe fool you here... the food is exploding with flavor! Very plain and simple, but every bite is mouthwatering! Very clean and well kept spot as well. The service was quick and easy! Easy decision to return no doubt. Excellent hospitality. The 100% angus beef burger and garlic fries are a 10/10. That little side of chili oil they give you, do not overlook it... even though the food doesn't need it, it pairs extremely well with the burger and fries! Had to come back and give these fish n' chips a try and man they give you everything to pair well with this dish from tartar sauce, to fresh lemons, & to the malt vinegar! I was left speechless again with the simplicity of it and how flavorful it was. Riji knows what he's doing in the food menu here! The variety of food items here will have you coming back. And I topped it all off with a cool refreshing pineapple chill! Another highly recommended refreshment here! You won't regret any dollar spent here! read more

I came back here to try some of their food and a smoothie. Portobello panini: this is unfortunately the only vegetarian panini that they offer, so I went for it. It was pretty good overall; I liked the cheese and the condiments inside. It comes with a side of chili oil. When you take out the sticks, the insides tend to fall out though, especially the onions and the portobello since it's more slippery. I'm not really a fan of portobello though, so I hope they come up with different vegetarian protein options for the future. Sali matcha smoothie: it honestly tastes very similar to the honey matcha latte except with a slightly thicker and less liquid consistency, and no ice cubes. But this isn't a bad thing, it did taste good. I wasn't able to figure out what fruits they put in it since it was mostly overshadowed by the matcha. They have a lot of yummy food and drink options, so I definitely recommend it for breakfast, brunch, or lunch. read more

Great food, coffee, smoothies, service and vibes! A gem of a spot. Went every morning during a recent visit. Love, love, love.

The cookies smelled stale. The latte wasn't made with quality espresso. It tasted like Folgers and cheap creamer in a cup. The avocado bagel was barely toasted. The turkey bacon, egg sandwich didn't even have turkey bacon in it it was Turkey deli meat. I wouldn't eat here again. read more

Newish cafe a boon in a dying area. The food is elegant. The bright, community forward decor is thoughtful and fun. Our cashier is very friendly and engaging. I got their signature crab melt and my friend got a simple egg croissant. The mimosa is a good portion of Prosecco and OJ. read more

Such a small intimate cafe! I came in on a Sunday morning and there was a line the entire time. I ordered to dine in, and lucky enough got the last table open. I went from the Matcha Honey Latte & Crab Melt Panini! They made it fresh, so I waited for about 25 mins but it was well worth it! First off, the matcha was so so so smooth! I drank it al fast because it was that tasty. My crab melt had the perfect toppings and sauce they put on it was the razzle dazzle that did it for me! I would pay that price again and again lol . read more

Giving them 5 stars because there was no complaints for this being delivery ! Let's get into it ! I've ordered twice from here on door dash . I definitely have to give them another review for indoor service . But I was very pleased both times I ordered for delivery. Can we say HIGH QUALITY please ! Everything was fresh and real lol . The first time I ordered I got a lox Asiago bagel. It comes with tomatoe and spinach . And gave me the option to add crab meat , onions , and avocado . Real crab meat ! Didn't taste fishy at all . Smoked salmon was tasty . They weren't shy with stuffing my bagel I was very satisfied! Was even able to eat the other half a little later since it was so huge ! My second time ordering delivery I got the crab melt panini ! I was able to add avocado and portobello mushroom which was a thick nice piece ! So yummy . Also got bacon on the side and it was plenty and crispy . Oh my goodness ! First it came still warm which is highly appreciated. It's totally different when you're getting a bagel and having cold meat versus a hot sandwich . So happy it came warm still . The bread was perfect ! Toasted just right and wasn't soggy by the time it got here . Crab meat was again real crab meat .I can just tell that this place takes pride in using fresh high quality ingredients. I definitely recommend this place and will continue ordering delivery. Now I just need to get over there and say Thankyou and eat there in person ! read more

Love this place for their fresh juices, quality lunch offerings, and artisan coffees. The ambiance of this place offers great calm community: an excellent cafe for a casual meetup or lunch meeting. I love seeing this downtown Oakland local business continue to serve in these times and encourage anyone looking to support small quality businesses to make Cafe Occello a regular stop in their neighborhood routine. Personal fave: 1/2 carrot, 1/2 orange huice, lavendar latte, and a turkey egg breakfast croissant, or the sourdough BLT! read more

What a great spot to enjoy some coffee and breakfast (in the afternoon!). Walls covered in beautiful and playful art. Lots of seating options, in two rooms. Great service from staff. The lox bagel on asiago, breakfast croissant (with ham, egg, and cheddar), and banana bread loaf were all super tasty... the sauce that came on the side with our sandwiches was intense (but I have a low tolerance for spiciness). We enjoyed our drinks as well, the kale 1669 juice, and iced mocha. And no problems finding street parking on the same block on a Sunday afternoon. read more

My big baby. Couldn't wait for his wet burrito next door and seen a sign outside this place about a salmon bagel.. he couldn't help himself lol. So we went halfsies on a salmon bagel! I did ask them to fully cook salmon. I personally want a fan. He enjoyed it. Salmon was mad salty. I also ordered a Strawberry Lemonade Uccello Chill. Very refreshing & flavorful! Customer service though was a 10/10. The girl at the reg was so nice! She took order and cooked it for us. She even brought my stuff alll the way out to the car to me. Now that's great service! I would be back to try something else. read more
