Cinnamon roll, belly up and a vanilla latte.
Jessica K.

9am DJ? I'm not sure if he was actually playing anything, or if it was just a sound track. But there was a dude set up for something. I dunno. Cinnamon roll was okay. Nothing mind shattering. But decent. Breakfast sandwich. Was pretty good. Would probably order both again. The coffee was great. Good flavor. Not too sweet. Great spot. I can see why it was so busy.

Americano with cream cheese
Bret C.

Tried an Americano this morning and it was pretty good. Had a smooth taste and was not overly bitter. The barista wrote my name down as BRATT, which I'm not sure if that was supposed to be a joke or if she truly thinks that BRATT is a name. If it was Brad or Brent or a legit name, I could understand it, but Bratt? Anyways, glad to see they hire special people, they need chances too. Unfortunately they open too late for me to make this my regular daily go to for coffee. Would be cool if they opened at 5am so on my way to work I could get a good coffee and have the staff prank me.

Vanilla Latte
Anndora L.

Wow!! It was busy here! Folks working, friends chatting away and solos enjoying a great cup of coffee. You could feel the energy as you walked in. Ordered a vanilla latte and basil & tomato toast. Both amazing!

Cranberry Lemon Drop, Old Fashioned, Fried Cauliflower

A local coffee shop turned bar/restaurant at night?! I was going to write a review about just the coffee, but recently stopped by to have some cocktails and appetizers. Coffee is pretty good and so are their baked goods and food! I love their holiday drinks so I would highly recommend trying whatever they have posted. You order at the counter and you can either wait at the bar or sit down inside the bigger room. Their cocktails are also not bad! Happy hour is from 4pm-6pm. Nothing super unique but they sometimes add a twist to the classic cocktails and they're strong and not watered down. We recently had the hazelnut espresso martini and cranberry lemon drop and both were good. We also ordered the fried cauliflower and it was surprisingly really good! Very seasoned and the aioli that came with it was super garlicky and tasty! For both day time and night time their seating area is pretty open and there's never been a big wait. Parking outside is also street parking but it has never been a problem for me. I will be coming back for more happy hours and to try more cocktails.

Yummy Fall specials ~ all things apple!

It's very rare I work from a coffee shop, but while in the area I stopped by East Bay Coffee to get some things done. I remember back in the day I would come here for their open mic nights for warm chocolate chip cookies and connection. It's amazing how much this spot has grown! Parking is a bit tough because this is a spot 'in the know' for the area, so don't give up hope, street parking in front or parking across the street.around the corner with a bit of a walk may happen :) FYI also, check hours before heading over. Currently they are open from 7a-1p and reopen Tuesday-Wednesday from 4-10p, Thursday-Saturday from 4-11p. Also...they have cocktails and evening food now outside of brekkie food/pastries! Love to see this and have already heard the evening hours are super fun and yummy. For the Fall, take a look at my photo attached for a sweet look at their special menu additions. This go-around I ordered just a matcha in-house, but can't wait to enjoy more next time I'm in the area and need a WiFi moment or hang. Awesome digs, great staff, EB vibes through and through.

Butter lettuce salad and a Martinez cocktail
cami c.

Back to our local haunt, EBCC, to enjoy the evening bar and menu on a Friday date night. I enjoyed the Martinez cocktail, which is a take off a Martini. It's sweeter, but not too sweet, and served with a twist and a side car. W had house made lemonaid. The bartenders here are craft cocktail experts and take great pride in the craft! For dinner we shared the butter lettuce salad with tomatoes, radishes, and a delicious house-made Parmesan dressing. I love this dressing! Plus the butter lettuce is a nice upgrade from Romain or a spring mix. It's sweet and mellow with a lovely crunch, and makes for a pretty plate. Guests can add a protein like grilled chicken or steak to make the salad a meal. I've done so with the chicken plenty of times and it's always been grilled to perfection with lovely grill marks, but most importantly, perfectly cooked, moist, tender, and flavorful chicken. Tonight we also shared the crispy chicken sandwich with a side of onion fries. Don't get me started on just how delish those onion fries are! Trust me! Try them! And the sandwich? Equally off the charts! Pic is from a previous meal, but the chicken breast is lightly battered and fried to juicy, crunchy perfection! It's huge and stuck out on two sided of the bun! They sandwich includes cheese, house made pickles, a delicious mayo, all on a fluffy bun. Before saying our goodlaters, I had a dessert of a cream soda "shot" (they have a cute name for these little yummy drinks but I forget what they're called). I love this sweet delight that is topped with a little whipping cream. Gently swirl it and that cream expands--so its delicious and fun! If you haven't been to EBCC at night-- stop on by! Enjoy the atmosphere, the food, and maybe Trivia (Tuesdays), open mic night (Thursdays) or a special weekend night when live music is offered!

We headed out to the cute farmers market and trade show that was happening on Saturday. The town is super cute and there are a few restaurants around it. We quickly got our stuff and got in I would say 10 mins to closing... I know horrible of us! But I wanted to try it. So walking in I was happy to see that it was order at the counter and wait for your name to be called. So we didn't hold up anyone serving us. I thought this was a sit down but they call your name once your food is ready. We ordered two Bloody Mary's and two of the thick bacon breakfast sandwiches. The bill came out to be around $50 and then tip. The drinks were on the weak side, basically all tomato juice. I had to go order a couple of shots that were $9 each for well. That's like a drink price... then I asked for something spicy and was told to go to the condiment bar... I was looking for a glass bottle, not packets of Tapatio... just threw me off a bit. So yeah, drinks could be a litter stronger (I noticed they watch the bartenders and they use a measure to be exact, not more not less) and could be a little spicier. When the food was ready they called our name. It didn't take long which was greatly appreciated! What I wasn't a fan of, was how the food was in a to go container... not sure if this was just because we ordered late and they wanted us to get out? The taste was so good, fresh, and the thick bacon was delicious! Wish it had three pieces but two is nice. The bun was soft, the chipotle aioli was tasty, loved the fresh egg! Loved the price of it as well! $11.50!!! Awesome! We sat in the room with the stage, they have evening music. Lots of people hang out and are on their laptops. The place is very clean and everyone is super nice. I believe the owner/manager came up to us to invite us back for dinner. We will be back, maybe just stick to wine.

Salmon toast, add avocado. Sooooo good!!
Angela F.

Based on my last morning here, it was so good! Definitely worthy of 5 stars. The toast was absolutely amazing. Generally, service can be quite slow with a long line, so just be prepared for a wait. Great atmosphere though!

Brioche breakfast sandwich, latte, tomato toast, cappuccino, iced matcha latte
Davina C.

My sister and I needed a place to kill some time while having delicious coffee. We saw reviews for this place and went for it. I am SO glad we did! When you walk in there's a bar where you order. Come to find out this place closes in the afternoon and opens back up as a bar! I would like to come back for that. The seating area is pretty large and there is a stage for a live band. It was lively with some people sitting with their laptops. Clean bathroom! The coffee was delicious!! We had two each; latte and cappuccino and an iced matcha latte. The food options are good and also very delicious. The brioche egg sandwich was soft and comforting. The tomato toast had an earthy bread with perfectly ripe tomatoes. I would definitely come again when around this area.

Iced coffee and their menu
Jonny T.

So I never went here previously, but I decided to check it out for their summer series open mic night! It was a small, but spacious place. The food was absolutely delicious! We had the glazed pork belly, pesto pizza, fried cauliflower, and French fries. Every single morsel and bite, was so good! The service was equally amazing, and the ladies were super friendly and kind. My beautiful wife is a wheelchair user, and we appreciated that they have a ramp right outside the doors, with two separate entrances/exits! So thoughtful and well planned out. So bravo, East Bay Coffee, we shall return! Overall 20/10

Don't let the name fool you....coffee shop by day and a sleek lounge at night! Such a great spot that I stumbled on. It was the night before before Thanksgiving and I was in town looking for a place to have a few cocktails. A friend recommended this place but I thought pffftttt how does a place named East Bay Coffee have cocktails? I called to see if they were open & they were, they even had a DJ coming in that evening! We came had a few drinks & even had some food. Needless to say everything was GREAT! I had the pisco punch and the focaccia bread which were both deelish!! Vibes were a cross between an eclectic lounge & a place where u can meet for a book club. Pear steet used to be my jam when Gary owned it but it's changed a lot....now EBC is my new spot! Will definitely come back when I am In town! Pros // Love the vibes Great drinks Great food Service was perfect Hidden gem Close to freeway Cons// Street parking only

Side bar

As busy as it can get at 0800. Must be because drinks are really tasty and pastry in special the cookies!!! Ambience is a mix between a coffee shop and a night bar all in one place, the ideas the best. Order two chocolate chip cookie with sea salt OMG!!! Fresh melts in your mouth you can definitely taste the dark chocolate no salt but the hints of sea salt are there no overpowering in sweet just perfect. Blueberry lemon loaf, hmmm!! in the dry side, not a big fan. Lavender latte, smooth, no sweet but creamy Overall I will come back to try other pastries and other drink as well

Irene G.

Oh my oh my oh my I absolutely love the belly up breakfast sandwich. It is delicious. When you get a chance and if they have made pumpkin cream cheese bread, you gotta try it. It is so good.

Nice bar

The Factory Bar is one of those places that just feels right the moment you walk in…read more From the outside, it has that clean industrial look, but once you step inside, the space opens up into something warm and layered. Exposed beams lined with old Richmond street signs, vintage photos, leather chairs, soft lighting. It feels thoughtful without feeling staged. You can tell someone cares about the details. The drink program is strong across the board. Good beer selection, a nice mix of wine, and a full bar for cocktails and spirits. What really impressed me, though, was the quality of the cocktails. They are balanced, well-crafted, and made by bartenders who clearly know what they're doing. Some of the best cocktails I've had at any bar, not just locally. The staff is friendly and genuinely helpful. You never feel rushed or overlooked. It feels like a neighborhood place that also happens to take its drinks seriously. And the patio is a standout. String lights woven through the trees, heaters for cooler nights, tucked-away seating that feels almost like someone's backyard gathering spot. It's intimate and relaxed, the kind of space where conversations stretch on longer than you planned. This is not a flashy club and it's not a pretentious cocktail lounge. It's a well-run, character-filled bar that brings people together. Richmond is lucky to have it. Five stars, easily.

It was a beautiful weekend evening and we sat in a room adjacent to the main bar in super comfy lounge chairs. This room is where karaoke and other events take place. There's great ventilation, and it's just quite honestly a great space to chill with friends, and also observe all the fun Richmond memorabilia. We also sat in the outdoor space, a super nice garden area that is well-kept and a great option to enjoy on these beautiful sunny days. I had a watermelon margarita and it was so fresh & tasty, I thought it was already summer! Friendly staff and environment filled with regulars and newcomers alike. They seem to have food trucks regularly, and we ordered food to-go from the Brazilian truck outside. Deliciously unique! There's also a few spots nearby you can bring food in from (an ice cream/waffle shop next door and Tacos El Tucan too). We took a ride share, but street parking is available. Looking forward to coming on an event night to catch the local vibes.

From the moment we walked in, the hostess was warm and welcoming, and our server was exceptional throughout the night. The cocktails were also a standout -- the Old Mez, The Vintage, and even my Matcha Bliss mocktail were all . We started with the Brussels sprouts, mussels, and truffle fries. The appetizer portions were generous and satisfying. The mussels were cooked perfectly with a flavorful sauce that had us finishing every bite. The truffle fries were hot and crispy, served with ketchup and aioli. The Brussels sprouts had the perfect crisp in every layer, while the onion, apple, and bacon balanced the dish really well. Unfortunately, the lamb chops completely changed the experience. When the plate arrived, both my husband and I immediately noticed how small the portion was for a $45 entrée -- just a few lamb chops and four small carrots. Compared to the appetizers, it honestly felt more like an appetizer than a main course. I ordered mine medium rare, but my pieces came out rare and chewy with quite a bit of fat, leaving one bite of meat per piece. My husband's pieces were cooked more accurately, but his cuts were a little thicker than mine. For the price point, the dish simply didn't feel worth it or satisfying enough to be considered a true entrée. For two people, including tip, the bill was over $200. We would return, but next time we'd stick to cocktails and appetizers, because that's definitely where Chateau shines.
