I've been rocking with Hippies Brew for 10-11 years now and have been following them ever since! I think I've been to every location lol! The coffee, the food, the cookies, the service and people are all amazing! Going to Hippies is kinda a Sunday ritual for my family and I! I haven't had a bad thing on the menu .. but I'm a creature of habit so I stick with my 2 favs: Rick Ross and Sorta Kinda Latte! You can't go wrong!I'm so happy they are open and I can't wait to see what else is in store for them! 10/10 highly recommend :) read more

Hippies Brew - Sorta Kinda Latte with cold foam - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Hayward, California

I was ready to place an order today at 12:50pm but for some reason DoorDash says you're closed. It says "Opens soon" but no info as to what time. The option to check a delivery time for later is grayed out, leaving no way to place an order. Very disappointing. I'll have to order from another restaurant. read more

I've written a review for their old location in San Leandro, but this new location should be deserving of an updated review as well! We were so sad that they closed their other two locations and were on a hiatus! So happy to see that they've opened a new partnership with The Neighborhood Grandma! The inside of the store has that same Hippie's Brew vibe as their San Leandro location; cute and cozy decor all around. They now have a kiosk which you can order yourself! We've been back twice since they reopened and we never hesitate to make the 40-50min drive from San Pablo/Richmond for some Rick Ross and Ice Luvs Coco!!! There are new menu items that we tried out on our recent visit. Ricky Ro$sayeee caught my eye. You can choose their Rick Ro$$ coffee or $orta Kinda Latte and it comes with a slice of tiramisu on top!!! Sooo good!!! It does get messy though! I wonder if you can request the tiramisu on the side or if they'll offer it as a stand alone dessert item too! We also tried their PHAT cookies; Richie Rich and Ying Yang. We chose to get them warmed up and it made it all the better! It was nice, warm, and ooey gooey!!! My fave is the Ying Yang (cookies and cream)! I see that they also added new match drinks!!! Will have to check those out the next time we come back, which will probably be soon lol. Wishing you all the best with this location!!! read more

Yes yes yes to Hippies Brew! How I've missed this coffee spot and was so excited to learn there is a NEW spot in Hayward off Eden Landing Rd. Tucked in a small lot shared with popular eatery Crave Subs and others, 'The Neighborhood Grandma's Coffee Shop' serves Hippies' Brew sips and cookies that are HUGE and oh so delicious. Pro tip: get the cookies nice and warmed up :)) I ordered the 'Crack Coffee' (cold coffee brewed for 18+ hours) and they mentioned to add the 'Frisco Fog Coconut Sweet Cream Cold Foam' atop ~ so good! You could literally use a spoon with that cold foam. The foam also comes in a Cinnamon Vanilla flavor too. I also ordered a 'White Iverson' jug to-go (white mocha) and a 'Ying Yang' cookies n' cream cookie. No notes! I appreciate the fun names for their drinks and shoutouts to pop culture and the Bay. Also the overall vibe of this spot is incredibly cool. Literally just like 'Grandma's house' ~ from the floral print seating to the fireplace, to the clocks on the wall. Cobra Kai was playing on the TV and we noticed the kitchen's wallpaper was a replica of the Wonka edible fruit wallpaper..so fun! The owners of the spot came to sit and chat with us for a bit and honestly, made my day and week. To sit with your community and just chat and invest time together enjoying coffee and convo..so priceless. Cant wait to continue to support such cool people doing cool things in the East Bay. Thank you for the laughs and love! *Also, stay tuned for more menu updates from them coming soon. They're only 29 days in!* read more

The place is close to my house so that's a bonus. The Yonce and Cowabunga Dude are personal favorites along with the cookies. The service is really great. The guy working there is really nice and very helpful. Even though they're not in the big store anymore, the trailer is still pretty cool. Even though it may be small. read more

We need more places like this. 5 Stars for creativity, its a coffee and matcha spot but they are doing it different here. I'll say its not as strong of a matcha for me but the flavor combination was really good and I'd come back for the coffees. Very creative drinks, friendly service, cute trailer location, if you drive too fast you'll miss it. If you're in Hayward definitely check this place out. read more

I was so excited when I heard that Hippie's Brew had partnered with The Neighborhood Grandma. I was pretty bummed when all their storefronts had shut down--where else was I going to get my beloved Yoncé drink? Luckily, I had a little time before work, so I made the drive over. Normally, Hippie's Brew has more of a hipster vibe, but since this location is inside The Neighborhood Grandma, it felt warm and cozy--like hanging out at Grandma's house. The team there was just as friendly and welcoming as always. They kept me updated on my order, which I really appreciated. While chatting, I mentioned this wasn't my first time enjoying Hippie's Brew. Right before I got my drink, another guest asked the barista for food recommendations, and she suggested the McLovin Sammich. I couldn't resist chiming in that it's delicious--but so is their Freakin' French Toast. I'm just so happy to see them back in business again! read more

I love Hippies Brew coffee. I have been coming to their establishment since College when they were located on Foothill Rd in Hayward. I was so excited to see they reopened on Eden Landing which is right near my job! Their breakfast sandwiches are delicious, and coffee always a great flavor. This was my first time trying the richie rich cookie and it was delicious! Staff were very friendly and service was quick. Cant wait to be coming by more often! read more

I'm so happy they reopened their location!! Their lattes are the best and unique, like no other place. This location also serves home-baked cookies from the neighborhood grandma. I didn't get a chance to try and I ended up grabbing the White Iversion drink. Sweet and Creamy! Interior was homey and decor feels like you're at a house. Fast service and you order on the tablet. read more

We live in Sacramento and since the first time we got Hippies Brew 3 ish year ago, anytime we're even close going close to the Bay we will make a point to come here! Everything is good - the freakin French toast never disappoints and is so filling. I usually get the Yonce or Sorta Kinda Latte (which are both delicious) but this time I got the Hay girl hay for pumpkin season and it is seriously the best pumpkin coffee I've had anywhere. Definitely try it while you can! I wish we could buy it in a jug but we didn't see an option for it read more

Hippies Brew - Bathrooms super cute with lots of little details, the cafe area is even cuter but was super busy so I didn't end up taking a photo - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Hayward, California

Delicious coffee & great food in the cutest little trailer. Nicholas (part owner) was lovely to chat with & just a genuinely good person. Support this local business! read more

There is nothing that can justify $10 smallest size coffee with majority ice. TEN DOLLARS for a medium (but that's the smallest size they got!) I told the guy that it's $7 on door dash- and he didn't honor it. I cannot justify $10 coffee. The drink taste good. I got the Rick Ross. But only a good five slips that you could enjoy. Also did not give me the caffeine kick at all. Just a sweet drink. Not worth it. Very upsetting when you want to support local minority-owned business but I cannot help but to feel ripped off. **Edit to add more below** As I do more research it appears that the coffee is actually $7. But the man said it was $10 and I Venmo to his personal account. VERY UNETHICAL and SCAM! It makes me sad because I just moved down the street and thought this will be my to go place. I am Asian woman, maybe he thought I was loaded and wanted to take advantage. VERY not cool! read more

im happy i found hippies brew again! i know they had closed for a bit but they are now in a little trailer on the site of a gas station. my personal favorite is the yoncé!! read more

Hippies Brew - Rick Ross Coffee and The Yonce Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Hayward, California

I came to the og hippies brew when it first opened and then I moved away. I had no idea it changed to a new name but I'm so glad I found it again. It's always a vibe in there and the staff is super nice and attentive to your order. They don't take call in orders but when you go and order on the kiosk the items come out really fast plus you get to look at all the stuff they have placed around the store. I got the ice loves coco, my friend got the yonce, and we split the freakin french toast. Everything was so good just like when the first place opened. You can tell they love what they do. read more

There was only one staff working today, so service was a little slow. however, staff was very pleasant, kind and helpful. it was worth the wait. the drinks and coffee were amazing! thank you for great service! read more

The drinks we got were amazing! We both got the Rick Ross and it was simply the best. I don't usually drink coffee often but I'd go out of my way for this one. Also the French toast sandwich was a great blend of savory sweet. All to top it off was the friendliness of the owners who were so fun to talk to. Will be going again! read more

Such amazing best coffee taste and unique flavors!! Definitely recommend! Love their Rick Ross drink always my go to! Just hard for them to find a permanent location with rent and overhead I'm sure being so crazy expensive but will definitely be following any Pop-ups they have so worth the hype! Service is always great and fast as well! read more

this place was super yummy and delicious! i got the yoncé coffee at 75% and it was sooo tasty and sweet without being too much, honestly such a good balance. i also tried my friend's french toast sandwich and omg it was bombbbb. i wish i had it fresh out of the oven because i can only imagine how amazing it must taste hot, but even later it was still so good and full of flavor. the vibe here is super chill too, definitely the kind of spot i'd come back to for coffee and food again. read more

Amazing customer service, exceptional food, and great vibes. I definitely recommend if you like savory and sweet.

Love Hippie's Brew!! So happy they are back in Hayward. It was a lucky coincidence that I found the location. The chocolate chip cookie was delicious. Can't stop thinking about it! The staff were so helpful and very kind! Will be going back again soon. read more

fast easy and quick service I would recommend this business drinks are awesome. Very tasty even the desserts great hospitality Homie vibes.

I came and tried the white Iverson drink (I got it cold) and I thought it tasted good and was nice! It didn't leave a long-lasting impact on me though; I don't feel like I have to come back super soon. It was very sweet, I drank some and then added milk when I got home and that made it more balanced. I liked the vibe of Hippies Brew Express inside and that nice staff who helped us. I think I would come back again on a Saturday morning to get a coffee and walk around the nearby farmers market with it! read more

Hippies Brew - White Iverson - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Hayward, California

Hippies Brew is what I get when I want something sweet with a hint of coffee LOL. I got the Brown Suga Baby (oat milk latte with mint leaves). It wasn't overly sweet and the mint made it really refreshing. Like I said tho, the coffee taste is really mild so don't be surprised. I also got the cinnamon toast. It was 5 bucks for 2 pieces. They were fine but def skippable. It's an express version so there's no seats. I came around 1030 on a Monday, they had a steady flow of customers but no long waiting. read more

Took a sad girl walk in downtown Hayward on my day off. I've always wanted to try this place but am always at work during their hours... but not today!! I liked the drink I got it was good balance of coconut and chocolate. Nothing overpowering and compliments each other well. Almost like an almond joy in drink form.. it wasn't too sweet which I would say is a win! Can't wait to go back and try some of their other specialty drinks. read more

Been waiting to try this place for a long time since I have seen many good comments through Yelp. We ordered 2 sandwiches and costed us about $30(plus tip) which I felt like it was overpriced. Honestly, I won't be back for sandwiches but might be back to try their coffee read more

I love Hippies Brew! The coffee is a bit over priced but it taste sooo good. I like to get the Rick Ross less sweet and light ice. Parking here can be a bit challenging since it is in a downtown area. This location is found connected to the Hayward Library and is less busy than the Union City location. I do see dogs outside often and it's a nice place to go for a walk after grabbing your coffee. The people working here are usually very nice and helpful. read more

one of the best coffee places in the bay. sad they kept closing down though. hope they open up soon

I reviewed their Smith (Union City) location nearly a year ago. I prefer their other location; but, this Hayward Express location is much closer to my husband's workplace. It gives me a reason to drive from the tri valley to stop by and say hi to him. Oh, and to stop at the Costco Business Center. Lol! I stick to the Rick Ro$$ since that's my favorite beverage here. I tried the 'yonce once (I hope I said it correctly) and didn't care for it. This location makes their drinks quickly which is awesome; but, Customer Service is non existent here. They don't smile here and I feel uncomfortable...almost uninvited if that makes sense when I walk in. It's a weird feeling that I can't put my finger on it. The employees here don't even crack a smile here. Basically, if you want your HB caffeine fix; expect to roll in and right back out. They definitely live up to the Express part. read more

Great drinks, kind & fast service, & a great location at the Hayward Public Library made our experience at Hippies Brew Express quite pleasant! This little café has limited seating but there are more tables in the actual library! I noticed that it smells so pleasant because they sell French toast and other breakfast options as well. I ordered the Sorta Kinda Latte which had brown sugar, cold brew, and cinnamon sweet cream. It was so, so tasty that I wish there was a location closer to me! I will 100% be going back when I visit the library again :) Thanks Hippies Brew for the great service and drinks! read more

Hippies Brew - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Hayward, California

This small coffee shop is part of the Hayward public library. They offer medium and large size coffees, some breakfast sandwiches and pastries. I usually get the Yoncè or the White Iverson. Both are delicious but also very sweet. If you are lactose intolerant or prefer dairy free milk they do have a few oat milk options. The coffee shop is very small on the inside with no indoor seating, there are some tables and benches outside to use. It also doesn't have a parking lot but there are usually places to park on the street. They also offer a online order feature, but it does end 1 hour before they close. read more
