Staff were friendly, very knowledgeable, and helpful. I ordered a mocha and later a red tea and…read morethey were both excellent. Definitely coming back! Baristas explained that they are up for trying different and sometimes unusual combinations for their customers. I wasn't adventurous this time, but it made me want to explore in the future. I came here to work, hoping for a relatively warm and cozy spot that wasn't too sleepy. I was not disappointed. The wifi was good, music was fun and unobtrusive. Decorations and layout gave a friendly, welcoming environment. Not only were the benches and padded chairs comfy, the ambiance was kept even in the bathroom. Spacious, warm lighting, cute bathroom with a great mirror and cool sink. I don't ever ding places for hospital-looking bathrooms (you know, fluorescent lights, questionable floors, sand paper toilet paper...) but this was one of the few where I was impressed. Good to know: Jaffa cakes are only available on the weekend Parking: Some of the streets nearby are resident-only parking so make sure to double check!

I ordered a cortado which was good while the hubby ordered the orange latter. We were told ordering it iced makes it a tad sweeter and that was correct advice. The latte was sweet but still delicious. I'd probably order it hot next time. It's a large space with merchandise, beans, and accessories for sale. They've also got a good sized menu for coffee and tea drinkers alike.

The focaccia was SOOOOO good and I'm literally tearing up thinking about it... The latte was lovely as well! Perfect level of sweetness. I forgot to take a pic but just trust me. Also, shoutout to the really sweet people behind the counter!! I've been having a hard week and it was nice to have a cute chat with them. They said their names but I can't remember (so sorry ) One was tall and blonde with super spiky hair and a sick eyebrow piercing and they were so fun to talk to! The other had glasses and a hat and a beard! They were super fun and nice as well :) Please let the staff know they're the goat! I will be back for sure!!

Finally writing a review for CoRo…read more Coffees are good, but not good enough to overcome the fact that every time I've come here (quick takeout if I'm passing through Berkeley), the service never changes. The staff here are just super unfriendly and unwelcoming. As in friendly with each other, but then present to customers as flat and uninterested like they're an inconvenience. It's amazing how that never changes considering the staff turnover that a coffee shop would get. Another mention -- with CoRo gaining popularity, there's been queues out the door in the mornings. People do use this cafe as a workspace, therefore seating can be limited and there's no policy (yet?) to help clear up tables. So the coffees start becoming a bit expensive to show up and have to take it to-go.

Love Artis Coffee!…read more My wife and I haven't been on Fourth Street Berkeley in a long long time! Thankfully while doing some shopping and after a great meal at Divan Restaurant a few block away we popped into Artis Coffee. Wow! It was after 4 pm but what the hell, I ordered a cappuccino and my wife order a defca cappuccino, several pastries and took in the HUGE space! Our cashier was very friendly and appreciated our humor and debate on whether to have a "decaffeinated" cappuccino or not. I convince my wife to order one and she loved loved loved it! My "hi test" cappuccino was spectacular, smooth and perfect! Honestly, It took me back to Roma where we had aour honeymoon 22 years ago! Bella! If you find yourself on Berkeley's Fourth Street and looking for a perfect roasted coffee make sure to hop into Artis Coffee and I know you will love it too!

Artis Coffee was okay…read more I had an Ube Latte, 12 oz, iced, with matcha and oat milk ($8.50 plus $2 tip) and it was good. Artis opened on December 7, 2013 and is located on the northern end of the Fourth Street Shops (a.k.a. Fourth Street Berkeley). This is a fairly spacious cafe with an industrial/warehouse, minimalist look. During my afternoon visit, it was busy inside and out on the covered patio. Lots of people on their laptops. Artis roasts their own coffee. Service was fine. I got a side eye from the cashier/barista when I asked where the water station was (it was my first time and I was unfamiliar with this place), but they were nice and polite otherwise. The water pressure at the self-serve faucet was too strong and sprayed water everywhere. Good for a coffee fix if you're in the area.

Since my husband was doing an iced Shiro, I went with a hot version of the Kuro. We both got whole milk rather than oat milk. While I loved both options the Kuro was definitely my favorite and did not disappoint. There's some seating options outside to enjoy your coffee and tons of vintage items to browse through inside while you wait for your coffee.

Truly amazing coffee here. They know their beans…read more The Friday morning we went, there was quite a bit of a wait since there was only one person dripping all the coffees and preparing the orders. Took about 25 minutes to get my two drinks. It was nice that ordering is through a touch screen which made things move a teensy bit faster. I'd definitely come back to indulge in really nice cup of coffee and give myself some extra time to slow down and enjoy.

Nice patio in the back area and a couple tables by the front door if you want to sit outside. They roast coffee beans here - a cute spot with cool artwork. They have awesome scones here, my favorite is the Brie cheese with fig -off the charts! I often have the Smashburger vegetarian paddie or avocado toast with an egg. A variety of beverages to include coffee drinks, beer and wine, and you can't beat a mimosa in a few flavors! Chill staff, and a friendly owner, Warren who is often on site. It's a space that's available to rent for special events as well. I have heard sometimes there's live music, most likely on weekends? Great spot for breakfast or lunch. So much better than the nearby corner bakery/cafe that serves food right off the Sysco truck. Oh, and the French toast is quite lovely too! Appears to be a lot of students studying, good vibes abound.
