receipt for nutty cow latte (small) & Smoked Salmon Breakfast Sandwich (New!)
Heran T.

I got a latte & bagel sandwich and somehow spent $25. I appreciate the cashier's help and explaining items, but going over the receipt it didn't really make sense? nutty cow latte not bad smoked salmon bagel good but not worth all that

Review is for Chai Tea More of a milky, super sweet drink instead of chai. Didn't taste any chai.... just milk. But there's free cinnamon powder :) Get coffee next time. Plenty of parking, but it is a busy lot! Thanks!

Vanilla latte
Jenny H.

I got a vanilla latte with three pumps. It was perfect - not too sweet. I would like to say I really like how hot temperature wise the latte stayed. I was there for almost two hours and even within one hour the latte stayed a good temperature. I am tired of lukewarm lattes. The staff there are nice. The music can be a bit loud when you're ordering. I did some work there and I saw an outlet near me. The bathroom is not the best but better than nothing. There were no paper towels though. I'd come back. :)

Delish!!
Neelab S.

Amaaaazzzzing cafe! Very neat and clean. Workers are so friendly and lovely. Loved the Apple fusion vegan non diary drink. So refreshing. Their scone is one of the bests. If you are in the area, must try. Peaceful and calm vibe. I am not sure how they have 3.8 staring! They deserve 5 . It is close to the Costco I shop in and will be my stop for a treat moving forward. My kid loved their smoked salmon sandwich. Oh and last hugs not least, their prices are really good.

Iced sugar free nutty cow latte
Estefania R.

Ordered an iced nutty cow SF latte which was pretty good! They had a lot of syrup options and their seasonal menu seemed interesting. Would definitely come again to try more fun flavors.

cherry blossom and the sakura seasonal drinks.
Lily G.

We got the cherry blossom and sakura seasonal drinks and they are delicious! Especially the sakura with oatmilk was our favorite and if you're into sweet drinks it's a must! The workers there are so sweet and made our day! We will definitely be back!

This is the morning bacon burrito and the Speculoos Oat Milk shaken espresso..  which the nice lady recommended.
Susy A.

The people here are always super nice. The food is great and so is the coffee.. they have the ice I like, lol.The shop it self has a cool vibe and looks nice inside. Theres is a lot of variety if food, pastries and drinks.Come check them out!

Brown cow latte
Richard H.

Located next to the Alameda Walmart, this is a great coffee shop with delicious pastries, gelato and beautiful artwork to enjoy when dining in. The brown cow latte, which is a hazelnut latte(hot). We also enjoyed an iced mocha latte, which was also delicious. I will be sure to enjoy their delicious gelato on my next trip.

Artsy cup to buy too
Jim L.

Great selection, coffee, bagels, breakfast fare, ice cream? Art on the wall and jazzy music, Two workers, so slow if there is a line, but most people would cheap it at the McD in the walmart nearby, so you can fufu here without too much wait. Huge parking lot, and about 20 seats inside, 6 chairs outside, so over 10 areas to sit, so great place to chill. Not sure about wifi, but i can get att free wifi here. So, if in neighborhood, will comeback

Two chunky monkey's and one coconut crunch are a delicious and homemade, almond milk is made in-house! I'll definitely be back!
Mari M.

Chunky monkey was delicious, they add peanut butter & banana with coffee. J would add an extra shot next time. The almond milk was made in house, which was a bonus. We will definitely be back

Ice matcha

This is not matcha this is water for 5 dollars That's why this place it's empty we don't ask for quantity we need quality spend your money somewhere else people this is very disappointing

I've been coming here for over 3 years and have always loved this place. I know the staff well and it's been one of my go-to spots. I usually order the same thing, but today I decided to try the avocado toast. Honestly... what kind of avocado toast was that? The middle was completely soggy and brown, and the edges were stiff and stale. It didn't smell fresh or look fresh at all. I got my food at 8:21 AM and went straight to my car. The moment I opened it, I came right back inside. I wasn't rude or demanding. I stayed calm and just wanted to bring it to their attention. I didn't even ask for a refund or remake. The response I got was disappointing. The employee told me, "We don't offer refunds or exchanges," even after seeing the condition of the food. She also claimed she had just made it, but I watched it come out of a pre-made container from the fridge.... What made it worse was the attitude. She became defensive and hostile right away, pointing at a sign immediately "saying read the no refund!" like I was trying to start a problem which I wasn't. She took the uneaten food back and still said there was nothing she could do. As someone with years of food & management experience, this was honestly unfortunate to witness with a place you have been coming to for years ..... chile It's not just about the food it's about how situations like this are handled which led to me NOT longer being a customer... Really disappointed.

"4oz" scoop gelato, prob at BEST 1/4 cup when it should've been 1/2 cup
Debbie F.

came here for gelato, and had the SMALLEST scoop of gelato that i've ever seen at any establishment! asked for small, which is advertised as 4oz, which should've been ~1/2 cup size. what we received was barely 1/4 cup. for 2 smalls, paid about $9.50 i guess the plus side is that i shouldn't be eating too much dessert anyway :) was also odd that for our different gelato orders, didn't bother using a different scoop, or rinsing the scoop other food items looked pretty good though, so maybe will try it when shopping this area again. but i don't recommend this place for gelato.

Coffee Connoisseur here ‍ I've done coffee crawls in Portland, OR and have tried many different…read morekinds of lattes. I like to look for new spins on lattes to see what barista's are whipping up to make things unique. I came in thinking I was going to get a basic latte, but the Borgia Mocha caught my eye! I asked the cashier if it was a good choice and she recommended it. I was a little unsure how the two would blend and how much orange they would use in it, but it came out amazing! Honestly probably one of the top 10 unique mocha's I have tried and it was delicious! I loved the burst of refreshing orange that complimented the chocolate. The flavors danced on my tastebuds like two separate flavors that blended together as one. Each holding their own note that added value to the drink making it unique. I was instantly impressed and wish I found this on more menus! A classic mocha with a refreshing twist of orange was a pleasant surprise! I'm so glad I stopped in for a pick me up! I also loved all the art on the large walls and there looked to be plenty of tables and seating for people to eat and work at.

Pros: PLENTY of seating, this place is pretty big for a coffee shop, beans for sale, solid options…read morefor baked goods, enjoyable sandwiches, friendly workers. Cons: can be a pretty busy spot, not the most consistent, the specific beans I like aren't always available. Notes: Thought I had written a review here a while back as they are a part of my post Oakland airport tradition. My routine, fly into to Oakland, drive to Moussaka for lunch (rip the former chef/owner and restaurant), head 2 doors down to Zocalo for coffee on the ride home. If my flight was extra early and Moussaka was closed still, Zocalo was more than good enough to fit my food and coffee needs.

It was truly one of the best catering experiences I have had from the professionalism of the onsite staff to the exceptional quality of every dish served. I was unfortunately too busy managing the event (and enjoying the food) to take photos, but the menu absolutely deserves recognition. Highlights included the perfectly seasoned Farmer's Market Scramble, Chicken Apple Sausage, Lemon Ricotta Pancakes with Blueberry Sauce, and Herb Roasted Potatoes for breakfast. Lunch featured incredibly tender Short Ribs, perfectly glazed and moist Grilled Chicken, grilled polenta, and the best honey butter cornbread I have ever had. Our guests consistently commented on how outstanding the food was...and this group is not easily impressed when it comes to catering. A sincere thank you to Pinky and the entire team for delivering such a seamless and memorable experience.

Hidden gem! A part of me doesn't want to write this review…read morebecause I want to gatekeep this place! The service employees are very kind and were patient as I was super indecisive when ordering. The menu is HUGE , with many healthy options available. I love that the drinks are served in traditional Mexican clay mugs (ollas). The inside area is tiny, but there is plenty of seating outside, with heat lamps for chilly days. I love their yogurt bowl and chia bowl. Their chia pudding is THICK made with coconut cream- I've tried to recreate at home and I can't get it as delicious. We've loved their sandwiches, salads and burritos as well. Their warm come straight off the grill on the patio. Their chai, cafe de olla and fresh juices are amazing. They have alternative milk for anyone who is dairy free. On weekends, expect a 15-20 minute wait as they do get busy, but it's so worth it!

The drinks are poured into these amazing cups. They're beautiful! The mocha wasn't my favorite but the food was the highlight, so I'm not too upset. The service was quick, fast and the people friendly. Overall, I'd take my dad there.

While the food arrived fairly quickly, nothing really stood out, especially considering the prices, which I felt were a bit high for the overall quality. On a positive note, the restaurant has a beautiful, spacious interior with two separate dining sections, which creates a nice atmosphere. However, the service was disappointing. Despite the automatic 20% gratuity, our server never checked back to see how we were doing, refilled our water, or offered any condiments such as hot sauce. What made the experience more confusing was that additional guests arrived after us, so we weren't sure why we were rushed to order in the first place. Overall, the ambiance was nice, but the food and service didn't quite justify the price. Unfortunately, I would rather explore other dining options than to return.
