    Breakfast items and hot items( we missed this since it was our first time here ) until after we ordered lol
    Maya M.

    I ordered the pandan latte and wow it tasted exactly like the dessert, just in liquid form. Comforting, fragrant, and absolutely delicious. I also tried the egg toast, which was so yummy, perfectly balanced with fresh arugula and a drizzle of chili oil that gave it just the right kick. My fiancé ordered the Yau Choy & Gruyere croissant with fried egg and sriracha aioli, and it was packed with flavor. Saucy, savory, and the egg was cooked beautifully. Everything felt thoughtfully made and full of flavor. Such a lovely spot for both unique drinks and satisfying bites -- we'll definitely be back

    Stopped by Lazybird Coffee for a spontaneous, late morning coffee and it was a pretty good experience. The line was a bit long, but moved fairly quickly. Customer service was friendly and adequate. I thought the space was nice, but a bit too small and cramped. It was quite crowded when I visited, so I had to shuffle around awkwardly while waiting for my order to make room for other customers. However, once the shop emptied out a bit, it was slightly better and felt more comfortable. The menu has a good variety of various drinks, pastries, and savory breakfast items, such as quiche, sandwiches, avocado toast, and even congee. I ordered an iced pandan latte along with a pandan waffle and chai latte. The pandan latte was refreshing and enjoyable, although the pandan flavor was more subtle than expected. I thought the pandan waffle was quite tasty. It was warm, crispy, and definitely had the right amount of pandan flavor I was looking for. My mom shared that the chai latte was a little too sweet. I also noticed a Rose Lychee Latte on the menu and hope to try it next time. Overall, I was satisfied with my order, and am curious to return and try other drinks & pastries in the future. I'd recommend stopping by Lazybird Coffee for a quick drink and breakfast snack!

    Tried a pandan latte with oatmilk which was creamy delicious! Friendly staff and cute cozy coffee shop. Blueberry lemon scone was so fresh and tasty! Love their breakfast foods too

    Eco friendly cold cup- pumpkin chai

    What a disappointment. I'm so sad to say, considering the cute logo as well as other positive reviews but I was just greatly disappointed by it all, especially considering the long drive I made to try this place. Primarily the customer service. Came in on a Sunday morning- it was empty inside, a couple eating outside so I can't even blame it on the business of the store. Upon arrival the cashiers seemed annoyed that we stepped foot inside, we order and are met with very short curt responses. Once it was time to pay the cashier just walked away from the front and I'm left standing there like...ok. The cafe is very small, a table or two inside but they had hydro flasks on the table like they didn't want patrons sitting down. We wait and they put the coffees on the bar and just disappear. Great. Now attitude is one thing but if it tastes good I'm going to look past it. The pumpkin chai was meh. It was ok. I've had way better. Now the honeycomb latte my sister got was just vile. Watery coffee, no honey flavor. We got a third drink since we made it so far, the banana matcha greatly disappointed. The vanilla cold foam had no flavor. The matcha flavor was just barely there, where was the banana? She was not in the room. Needless to say I will not be returning. Really sad considering the logo is so cuuuuute.

    Ube Latte with Oat Milk

    Went back here for 2nd time. Sadly wasn't able to get their White Chocolate Matcha as we came an hour before their closing. Was able to try their Ube crinkle and triple ginger though. I enjoyed eating the triple ginger cookie more than the Ube crinkle though as I can't taste much of the Ube in it. Their Pandan Latte is still the best one that I have to all Pandan Lattes I've tried. I can still taste the Pandan and I am still willing to commute for it. It's a small cafe but it's a good place to chat with friends.

    Cold brew with cream cheese cold foam, Samoa latte, morning bun!

    Very cute lil cafe with yummy drinks! Service was friendly, logo is adorable and lil dogs outside were fun (if u like dogs), the cream cheese cold foam was supa yummy!! Samoa latte was yummy and def sweet as well but not crazy too sweet, the morning bun was yummy and very cinnamony - pretty sure it was firebrand which is good brand! Nice lil place to stop by and get a fun drink with a fun pastery because they did have some fun pasteries and treats like an ube cookie or a choco coffee bread pudding !

    Tried Lazybird Coffee while in Alameda and I didn't know exactly what I wanted so I winged it with getting a Horchata Latte and honestly it was a great decision!! I loved it especially since they added cinnamon on top. I was surprised with the amount of food options they had, and since I went in the morning I got 2x spam musubis and they were still warm! This place only has limited amount of seating (it's a small-ish) place but still really nice and cozy. They had pastries in the front that looked delightful! Would definitely go back!!

    cream cheese cold foam, ube matcha and mango matcha, vegetable quiche
    Carla G.

    easily one of my fave local coffee shops! they were busy the time we went, but the service was still excellent! drinks and food came out at a reasonable time, so thank you to all the employees who got everyone caffeinated for the morning of thanksgiving! the ube matcha latte was delicious and mango matcha was great, the mango flavor just tasted a little syrupy. I might go every morning just for that veggie quiche! it's such a cute local spot that everyone thoroughly enjoys!

    Open faced yau Choi croissant
    Daphne J.

    Lazybird coffee is a charming little spot in Alameda. It is pretty small with only a handful of tables so it's more of a grab and go or quick sit down type of place to chat with your friends. They have an awesome selection of drinks and pastries that make it worth a visit. I tried the Ube Matcha latte which had a nice flavor overall. It wasn't too sweet, nor was it too strong but there were quite a few much of powder chunks at the bottom that threw it off a bit. The real star of the show was the open faced yay choy croissant. OMG!! 10/10! It was so unique and delicious that I'm still thinking about it and already planning my next visit just for that. Service was fine, nothing special, but it wasn't bad either. Parking can be a bit tricky since it's street parking only, so plan accordingly. I'll definitely be back and can't wait to try more of their drinks and pastries!

    When I charge my car in the AM, I'll typically swing by to pick up Gluten Free Goodies for my daughter. The Pandan Waffle is good. The babingka muffins are great! These taste like your at your auntie's house, and she's made a rectangular cake sheet of babingka. And you rush over to cut a slice of an edge piece because it's crispy and moist all at the same time... well, these muffins are forever edges! Every bite is crispy and moist! I typically get 6... The breakfast sliders look basic. They look like you should be able to make these at home. But, I highly bought I can replicate it. So I just continue to buy! It's the right amount of ham and soft scrambled egg with melt cheese in between a warm Hawaiian roll. The sauce... I'm not sure what it is! Some kind of aioli.. But it pulls it all together! So so good!

    Salmon avocado toast
    Amaya C.

    Such a charming little cafe in alameda. Stopped by to try an iced coffee. But couldn't resist a salmon avocado toast and it was so tasty! Nice fresh ingredients. 10/10. I ordered an iced honeycomb latte which came with dehydrated honeycomb inside. What a treat! It was so tasty. I will absolutely be returning. Parking is easy and staff is really friendly. Can't wait to try more of their menu items.

    Logo outside cafe
    Olivia G.

    I had a bit of an unpleasant experience that would lead me not to travel all the way over here again. I saw this coffee shop and the logo intrigued me. I drove 45 minutes to get here, tucked in the sleepy Alameda residential. I go inside and was not greeted. The cashier gave off an off-putting attitude and was very blunt. I ordered a matcha and a coffee to compare the two as well as a seasonal pumpkin chai. The inside of the location was small but I thought it was cozy. I later went in to buy another drink to try. Matcha: 0/10. I got the banana matcha and even paid extra for cold foam but it was disgusting. The matcha flavor was barely there and it tasted watery with not even a hint of banana. Horchata coffee: 8/10 delicious. Strong coffee and cinnamon flavor and really tasty Honeycomb coffee: 8/10 also equally delicious though I wish there was more honey-flavor to it. Pumpkin chai: 9/10 decent with good pumpkin flavor, not much of a floral aftertaste from the chai I was disappointed to be greeted worse when I went in for the second coffee so for that reason, I wouldn't recommend this place.

    Pandan Latte (Oat Milk) and Ube Latte (Oat Milk)
    Kyra K.

    If it's a dog-friendly cafe, you better believe I'll go! After coming across LazyBird on Yelp and pursuing their menu, I knew I had to come here. Companion and I came on the weekend, and I was a massive fan of the drinks and how dog-friendly they were. The cafe is small in size but super cute and minimalistic. There's about 3-4 tables for those to sit, chat, and work at. Some customers seemed to be working or studying. We agreed we could work from home here. There's also a spot to buss your own dishes, a bathroom, and dog treats! Service was efficient and our drinks came out fast. I love pandan and had to try their Pandan Latte. Their drinks come with double shots but I asked for one shot and Oat Milk. My companion had an Ube Latte with Oat Milk. The pandan flavor was sweet and strong. For ube, it was hard to taste it. The drinks were decently sized for the price. Overall, I love their variety of traditional and creative drinks and food items! Lots of Asian inspired goods which I'm always a fan of. I already know I'll be back with my pup. For those in Alameda and the East Bay, LazyBird is so worth the visit if you have a dog. Everything about it is great. With it located off Central Ave. parking is easy to find around the neighborhood. Can't wait to be back!

We ordered on the tablet near the front entrance. Some of us wanted our drinks to-go, so we ordered those separately at the register in the back. I ordered the Pesto Egg Toast and an iced Horchata Latte with oat milk, less sweet. The toast was yummy, and the portion was perfect for me. It was enough to make me satisfied. I liked the sunny side up eggs and pesto. The latte was also good. I could really taste the cinnamon in the drink. Even with less sweetness, it was still relatively sweet so I'm glad I adjusted it.

They had a nice selection of pastries, ultimately I chose a danish because I love them. This one did not disappoint. It was tender and flaky and went perfectly dipped in my chai. If ever, we are in the area again, I will definitely pay another visit. It was nice to step into a local place that wasn't a chain. I think the quality of staff and consumable offerings was just so much better than you would find at one of the other places.

    Such a cute experience, British afternoon tea meets Malaysian comfort!…read more I came here recently with my partner for our anniversary and was completely delighted with the experience. Heads up, this place is street parking only so come prepared! I would also recommend making a reservation since it is a smaller space (it was busy when I came!) The menu is pretty straight forward and majority of folks including us ordered a set for $45 each person. It comes with two choices of sandwiches, a scone, an array of sweets, and tea of choice. What makes this place so great too is that they allow you to pick sandwiches that are traditional to English Breakfast or you can go out of your way to pick traditionally Asian flavors. Between my partner and I we ordered: Meat floss sandwich (my favorite but that is because I have an affinity for meat floss), beef jerky (love how it paired with the creamy mayo), kaya jam with butter (a delicious salty sweet blend), and chicken curry (comfort food at best). We both enjoyed the scone with clotted cream and jam, very typical for afternoon tea, and in the dessert tier we got chocolate rocks (fun!), macarons, ube chiffon cake, and a strawberry sago pudding. Heads up everyone in your party gets their own tea set so you can mix and match to share with folks. Btw, they do have square sugar cubes, a nice accent. Overall, I feel like you should try this place at least once! Everything was great including our service!
