    Smoked salmon with kale Caesar salad
    Lindsay C.

    The place was very bright and open. Kind of loud inside, so not a great place to work but a great place to socialize. The portions of the half sandwich and half salad were very generous. The flavor profiles were amazing. You could taste the quality of the food. We did order a Matcha honey vanilla latte, which was really good. It was not bitter, didn't leave after taste, and you're able to adjust the sweetness which I really liked. I cannot wait to go back to try more dishes

    Maple crunch latte

    I love Otherside Cafe! They have amazing coffee and their food menu is great! Depending on when you arrive, there may be a line out the door, but trust me, it's good! The cafe itself is a decent size with seating on the patio (that actually stays pretty cool, even in the hot summers), it's got a lot of natural light and has a clean, airy feeling. Employees are friendly and attentive if you need anything. Do yourself a favor and get their maple crunch latte, it is out of this world delicious, I ordered it 1/2 sweet and it was perfection in a cup. My kids love to get the donuts, I'm not a big donut fan, but Otherside's are actually pretty good! I prefer the OG breakfast burrito and the tri-tip cobb wrap, seriously delicious! The Otherside Cafe is a great place to hang out and have coffee with friends, or a quick bite with the kids. I just wish we lived a little closer.

    Such a cute spot and everything they make here is reliably delicious. Sometimes this place gets really busy! But they're usually pretty efficient and friendly even when the line gets long. Nice places to sit inside and out. We ordered the spring matcha - delicious and sweet but not too sweet, at all. Also a very pretty drink! The salmon toast and the salmon bowl were both very yummy and felt nourishing to eat. I look forward to going back

    I got the Caesar Salad with an added chicken and was very pleased with the flavor. I love the avocado in the dressing which completely elevates the dish! My siblings got the other bowls and they seem healthy but I'd rather opt for a salad. It can get fairly busy, when we went there was a short line. Ambiance is clean and spacious with lots of seating indoor and outdoor. Plenty of parking available. Located in the new Row complex.

    Finally got to stop in sever weeks ago, to see what the hype was about! The hype is good! So, to keep this "Plain Jane". The food is good, the doughnuts are good (what can I say) along with the matcha! Have been 3 times, and it's been consistently good, which seems to be hard for some places. I've tried the Garden breakfast burrito, the OG breakfast burrito (easily top 3 favorite breakfast burrito) and a breakfast bowl (I can't remember the name of). Along with several doughnuts, and Matcha (one with just honey, other with lavender) and all of it was delicious! To wind this down, I get why people like this place. The service, the ambience and just the overall feel is nice. Almost reminds me of a place that would be, beach side with a view. All in all: Great food, service and ambience. Has now been a go to for me. Highly recommend!

    Quick service, and the food was so delicious! I got the Chia pudding, honey saffron latte, and my son got the avocado toast with blackberry tea. All good with a great atmosphere inside or outside.

    Salmon with a poached egg on sourdough toast
    Andre S.

    This is a local hotspot where the food is fresh, the service is accommodating, and there is seating both indoors a s outdoors. You will order at the counter prior to being seated at your table. The line can be a little long but the person taking your order is warm, friendly, and filled with patience. We had a rather large order. They will deliver your order to the table. The food is super delicious and seasoned to perfection. Yum!! We are so happy we found the perfect brunch spot Thank you Itherside Cafe!

    Ube matcha latte
    Rachelle G.

    Food: Every time I come here I'm not wowed by the food they have to offer. This time I got the Kalefornia salad and added almond chicken. It was okay--chicken a little tough and dry. The ube matcha latte had this bitter topping that I did not really like. But the drink is pretty! Service: you order at the counter and they bring you your food. They are very friendly. Ambiance: LOVE! You can come here for hours with your bestie and just catch up. Or you can come and do work (I see people doing this a lot). Very chill.

    Basil Vanilla Latte - Outdoor Patio Seating
    Tasha C.

    I'm was in Fresno for a short business trip and always try to seek out local coffee shops when I travel, especially when I need a good spot for a quick meeting. OtherSide Café was high on my list, and I'm so glad I made the stop. First impression: this place is huge for a local coffee shop. The space is bright, airy, modern, and effortlessly upscale. Honestly, if I could design my ideal coffee shop, this would be it. It was packed when we arrived, which is always a good sign, but be prepared to wait in line. It's popular for a reason. The barista who helped us was wonderful. I mentioned it was my first visit and that I love trying signature drinks. Without hesitation, she recommended the basil vanilla latte and explained how the basil adds balance and a unique flavor to the coffee. She was confident, thoughtful, and clearly knew the menu well. I also ordered the avocado toast and added two poached eggs for an additional $4, which I appreciated since it's a solid way to add protein. You're given a number after ordering, and because the café was so busy, we ended up sitting outside. The patio was also full, but it was a beautiful day and a great spot to sit. When our food and drinks arrived, the server kindly pointed out that silverware and napkins are self-serve at a designated station. We hadn't noticed it initially, so that's something good to know if you're visiting. Not a big deal, just part of the setup. The coffee itself was excellent. Smooth, well-balanced, and thoughtfully made. While I couldn't distinctly pick out the basil flavor, the drink worked really well overall and wasn't overly sweet. A solid recommendation. As for the avocado toast, the flavors were great and the eggs were poached perfectly. The bread was a bit heartier and crustier than I personally prefer, but that's a preference thing, not a flaw. Everything tasted fresh and well prepared. Overall, this was a great experience. The vibe is on point, the energy is lively, the staff is helpful, and the coffee delivers. I'll absolutely be back the next time I'm in Fresno.

    I think this is my new favorite cafe in Fresno!!! Their coffee/matcha is great (ube matcha was my jam) and their breakfast burritos are small but hit the spot!!! They clearly know what they're doing! We only got takeout but service was great and I'm obsessed!

    Miso Salmon, Golden Hour Latte
    Lester D.

    Fairly nice spot overall. The woman who took our order looked like she was being held at gunpoint (hope she's okay), but the woman who brought out our food was amazing. super friendly and attentive. The food itself was good, though a bit confusing. There was a random strip of grilled zucchini plopped on top of my plate that felt... unnecessary, and the green sauce was a little weird. That said, everything else tasted solid. I also tried the banana latte, which unfortunately leaned more artificial than expected. Not a bad experience, but not sure I'd go out of my way to come back.

    Spicy Egg Sandwich
    Aaron V.

    I have to say, I am thoroughly impressed with this place. They make solid coffee and really tasty food. The meal portions aren't huge either which is appreciated for a coffee spot. The service is some of the best though. They get people in and out pretty quick. We ordered a donut and they ended up not having anymore and came to us after our meal offering us a discount after giving us a substitute. Place flat out knocking it out of the park. The burrito is incredible. The breakfast sandwich is also solid too. I hope everyone comes into this place. Cheers!

    Zen Garden Salmon Salad
    Caroline B.

    Snuck in a rare kid-free breakfast date with my hubby and it did not disappoint. Tried a few new things instead of our usual spots and I'm so glad we did. The OG burrito was way better than expected, perfectly crunchy, loaded with real eggs, and packed with flavor. Even though it was busy, service was quick and super friendly for dining in. I've grabbed a salad to go before and wasn't wowed so I haven't returned in awhile ever since then. The golden hour iced latte was fire and the hot matcha latte was smooth and cozy. Donuts were a mixed bag, pumpkin chai wasn't my fave, but the matcha donut was so good! Can't wait to come back! Definitely recommend!

    Can I reserve for tom at 9 am for 12 people?

    I think you should call them. They usually do not take reservations.

    Is the breakfast burrito served all day?

    The breakfast sandwiches are served until 2 p.m., but the burritos are served all day.

    Can reserve a table for 8? It will be on 11/15 around 11:30? It's for a birthday lunch.?

    Good evening, what was the date and time you were thinking?

    Do you offer decaf?

    We do! All espresso drinks can be made decaf or we have decaf pour overs!

    Do they accept dogs on the patio?

    Hi Maxine. Unfortunately, we do not. The patio is fully enclosed and we have a full service kitchen, so, it’s not something we are able to do. Thank you for reaching out

The ambience was nothing crazy to talk about and it just looks like a standard small bakery with some seating. Typically when I have an experience like this I choose not to return. My friends have invited me back since then but after that first experience I just do not have any interest in going back.
