Cute coffee shop in the middle of a strip mall! We found this place on Yelp by searching for local…read morecoffee shops and this one stood out! The staff was friendly and there was plenty of parking in front and behind the cafe. It was well decorated, with big windows, an open-air bar, and cafe merchandise for sale. There was also a bulletin board advertising other businesses, a bathroom, and wifi options. It was a bit warmer this day, but there was a big fan in the front providing some air to the space. There was also a free or paid wifi option depending on the bandwidth one would need. I ordered the iced chai latte with caramel syrup and almond milk, which was a bit pricey for nearly $10. However, I will say it was delicious and made quickly. Probably the coolest thing here though was the co-working space. The front of the cafe had plenty of seating for people to talk or work. There was a hallway leading to the back room that had larger tables for bigger groups, implying more of a co-working or quieter space. Definitely appealing for people wanting a third space - will be back!

I came here to check out their inventory and try something new. I've never been to this type of…read morestore before, but was intrigued with the variety of items they had. When you walk into the store, the front side of the store is like a small café that you can have some baked good and pastry items with coffee and or tea. In the back they have Rose of pantry items, frozen items, refrigerated items, jams, tons of pickled items. The owner was very kind and welcoming. He asked what I was looking for and I told him I didn't have anything in mind. I was just checking something out and looking for something new to try and he told me that most items are in a different language, and that he would help translate and direct me which was very welcoming. I ended up getting a smoked mackerel, some amazing Wildberry jam, a cheese pastry, some of their house made bread, and some frozen pierogies Overall, I would absolutely come here again, I love to try new foods and recipes and I love the owner being so open with how to try new foods and how to cook it so I can get the best experience out of it. Would definitely recommend coming and allow yourself time to look at everything and speak with the owners to get their feedback, that's the only way to check out the store properly.

When you order coffee they also give you an option on the roast type. The pastry was good, but I prefer my pastries on the soft and chewy side vs toasted and flaky. The inside is cute with lots of seating. There were quite a few people working, studying and reading inside on a Sunday. There is also a small back patio and a few tables on the front patio. Parking is a bit tough as it's on the end of a bunch of store fronts but there's a small lot around the back.

The bread was moist, the homemade cream was creamy and delish with little mango chunks . I also decided to try their tiramisu latte. It was so good, creamy chocolateee smooth with a coffee kick, and the homemade whipped cream was so good. The tiramisu latte was so good I had to go back to get a second one as I gave my mom some to try and she loved it, lol. Service was great too, very friendly. The ambiance is fa French bakery with light earthy colors not too bright or dim. There's plenty of seating looking out the window. Parking is in front of the store too.

I think Bondadoso would be the perfect local coffee shop to walk to every morning. It sits at the…read morecorner of an area populated with tire stores and car services, and still does a robust business. Comfortable atmosphere and chill vibe... it always seems to have a dozen or more people enjoying conversation or working on their laptop inside, and several more enjoying the small porch outside. (Dogs are welcome on the porch.) They always have a welcoming and friendly staff and provide quick service. They have a large selection of teas and coffee for retail as well. This is definitely worth a side trip to enjoy a hand-crafted beverage, a small bite and to relax for a bit. It's a perfect option versus sitting in the service waiting room if you're getting service at many of the shops within a couple of blocks.

We asked them to remake it and it was STILL watered down. You guys need to learn how to pull an espresso that actually and actually dial in because it tasted watery.

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.

I struggled with deciding to rate this at a 4 or a 3 so I think I'm going to go with a 4 but…read moreconsider this a 3.5. To start, the employee working at the cash register was super friendly and gave great suggestions on drinks and food to order based on how sweet we like things or more coffee for we may want things to be. There isn't really any indoor seating space but they did build out into the parking lot with a few picnic tables and chairs for people to stay and eat their food. While we both really enjoyed the food - both of which were recommended by the employee - the coffee was not good at all. Pro: the avocado toast that we ordered had a curried chickpea salad on top and it had a delicious flavor. That was probably my favorite bite! We also shared half order of the blueberry waffle, and it had a type of granola on top that provided some really great textures. The food certainly impressed me. Con: Both of us felt like the coffee had none of the flavor that it was supposed to have (we both ordered the cardamom maple iced latte with macadamia nut milk) and instead, it just tasted like milk. It didn't even really have a coffee forward flavor. Since this is a coffee shop that was a pretty big disappointment. Overall, we enjoyed the food and service, but would skip the coffee.

We sat in the back and it was really cozy. There were upholstered chairs around small tables, more like a club than a coffee shop; I loved it! The front area is brighter and sleeker than the back; more like what I'm used to in a coffee shop. The pastries in the display case looked wonderful, but since we were going to lunch, none of us ordered anything other than coffee. I had a small cappuchino and I think others got cappuchinos as well, another small and two mediums. The small was $5 and the mediums were $6. The baristas were friendly and welcoming and made a great cappuchino. Highly recommend!

First time, staff was friendly and my cappuccino was good. Not great, but good. The Place was crowded, but not terrible. However, most people were on their laptops "working".

I asked for an espresso with a significant amount of steamed milk and foam. What I got? A dribble barley filling the bottom of the cup (which was to go, and I ordered to stay). Finally, they don't take cash. Cash is king. Would I go back? Nope. I don't know Walnut Creek very well but assuredly, there's other places that are more suitable for me.

He really enjoyed the sandwich and loved the sauce that it came with however he said the iced latte could be better. The sandwich was okay and I'm not a coffee connoisseur so I can't tell what makes a good coffee or not but I did try both. The apple almond was my favorite however I really wanted to like the pumpkin chocolate chip walnut cake so bad but I didn't... there's herbs or something in it that I was not a fan of HOWEVER my bf likes the pumpkin cake more than the muffin. So it's not that their food was bad but definitely personal preferences/taste. The waitress was kind and the place is small but such a cute interior. 100% the fact that the pastries were warmed up! Def an experience I recommend to try!
