Took my son there for lunch. Maybe the coffee is good but the sandwiches and service are not. The order was wrong and I had to ask several times for my sandwich which arrived about 15 minutes after my 5 yr old sons. read more

Fantastic breakfast joint that I feel is often overlooked with being mid block. But those in the know go. Amazing food and today having an omelet with ham that is delicious!!! Must try! read more

I'm giving the place a 3 star rating only because our orders were not correct. First I ordered the Gold Coast hash with no cheese and wheat toast. The cheese wasn't visible on top of the dish but rather melted under the hash browns. Sour dough toast was on my order. My friend's order was a scramble with no toast and extra hash instead. His order came out with wheat toast and potatoes. Aside from that, food was tasty and well portioned. Coffee and espresso drinks were also good. Great ambiance and service was just right. Willing to give this place another shot when I'm in the area again! read more

A million years later and they're still my favorite. The owners Monica and Miguel are an amazingly hard working couple that always make time for small talk no matter how busy it might seem. We love stopping here for quick on the go breakfast and coffee, lunch, or weekend lazy meals on the cozy and relaxing patio. I really like the waffle, oatmeal, burritos, breakfast sandwiches, and pastries which is just a small chunk of their menu. They also make THEEE BEST BLT's! I haven't the faintest idea why, but they are delicious. Our entire school has fallen in love with them and we'll get Wescafe to cater our events or host staff parties at the cafe. Always a blast. And can I talk about the coffee?! I don't remember where they said they source from, but the coffee and espresso are distinctively delicious, deep, dark, and robust. They have brown sugar and soy milk in addition to the usual stuff on the condiments bar so you can get things just to your liking. I mean, great food and coffee at a literal mom and pop shop? You can't go wrong. read more

Great place! Stopped in when I was traveling here for a seminar. The atmosphere is great and has a really cool vintage like setup. Also the employees were really friendly and nice. Had a great experience overall. Plus they have almond milk read more

This place is wonderful! I can't believe people would rate this adorable cafe less than 4.5 to 5 stars. I had the spanakopita and a small side salad and it was delicious. I enjoyed eating it on the back patio on a beautiful day. The energy of this cafe is very welcoming and so are the staff. If you don't come here, me and my gang of friends will. :-) read more

Burnt overpriced croissant absolutely rude cashier wouldn't stop tapping his finger when I went to get my cash out of my wallet. I would rather go to Starbucks and get something edible. I felt discriminated against because I was not of a certain complexion. read more

Today I ordered a turkey club and an order of French fries. I was so surprised how badly my sandwich was prepared . The French fries was soggy, undercooked and cold. It was totally inedible the sour dough bread was hard it didn't have any Mayo, lettuce was old, the outside of the sandwich has bacon crumb pressed in to the bread and the cheese looked like it was microwaved. I called the restaurant and complained to the manager how bad my sandwich was prepared. The manager offered to make me another sandwich and delivered it across the street and to be totally honest it was only a little better. The sandwich was prepared better but it was so dry and the bacon was cold and dry. I want to thank the manager for remaking my sandwich but I would highly recommended that the staff be retrain in making club sandwiches if they want to charge $14. I was so upset about the sandwich I didn't't even mention the fries, both items were thrown in the garbage. I'm sorry I didn't take pictures. read more

I just love this place!!!! They have a bunch of delish options, the bacon & potato quiche is really good, and the egg plant sandwiches are great. I love that they have a full breakfast menu, you can get anything from an all American pancake breakfast, to a Mexican huevos rancheros (eggs with a crispy tortilla and salsa) breakfast, as well as a bunch of other yummy options! I'm somewhat of a picky eater, so I love the fact that, when I'm in the mood for a custom (build your own) sandwich, they don't mind, my personal creation....... Roast beef, feta, and their homemade pesto sauce on a baguette, mmmmmmm, my mouth just watered! Give it a try, you'll be sure to be back! They specialize in coffee beverages, and have smoothies, fresh squeezed juices, a bunch of pastries, salads, soups, fresh fruit, and a bunch of other stuff! I love it! I think I'll stop by now, because I just made my self hungry. I'd give them a 5 star, but they lack more locations, now that would be awesome! All though they do have a creamery a couple doors down with a good selection of desserts, mmmmm warm brownie sundae, but my fav is the banana split with the RUM RAISIN Ice cream. read more

Wescafe - Sandwich and soup combo - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Alameda, California

Bad service - whether they were slammed or slow. When making their coffee to go, they use the steamwand in their wax-covered cups. You know what that means? Wax-covered coffee that you're ingesting. Staff barely speaks English (that's fine), but difficult to communicate. Their food is extremely bland. Had a BLT and a breakfast sandwich on different occasions - no seasoning, spreads, nothing... just a boring sandwich I could have made at home. Decor is cool, they have wifi. But really pretty disappointing. read more

I really love this place. First let me tell you about the staff they are very friendly and courteous. The food is outstanding and they have the best iced coffee in town. They just remodel the outside patio which is great if you have kids (I have two). The inside is great also. plus they have free WiFi. Overall I give it four stars because sometimes you do wait a little long on line to order specially on saturday and sunday mornings but I think they will take care of that problem soon. read more

Delicious food and very friendly staff! Huge servings. Brunch for 5 was $53.00. Right next to pinball museum which made for a great day!

The crepes are delicious. This is the second time that I've been here and each time is been wonderful. The staff ia incredibly nice and accommodating. Fast and close to home. Will be back soon. read more

If went around 8:45 am waited for 25 mins.to get my order I order french toast plate when I finally received my order I ask to view it I thenh told the serve the bread looked burned he said no only that it was dark . I took the order home sat down open the box and began to ear and found the rest burned this is a place I have been going to last couple of years.and picture read more

No way the best coffee shop/cafe in Alameda should only have 3.5 stars. Their coffee are amazing and their selection of foods and snack are unmatched in the island. I love this place and try to make it here at least once a week. read more

Apparently when they charge you $3.50 for a medium latte they really mean a small latte with two shots. I found this disappointing and annoying to think you are getting a medium latte and only get 6 sips of coffee. If you have three cup sizes then a medium latte should come in a medium cup. I also ordered a bagel the works. The slices of tomato and onion were so thick it was hard to eat without getting a mouthful of onion. My boyfriend had a breakfast burrito that he said tasted good but was really watery. I used to really like this place and the ambiance inside is nice but honestly with all these new businesses and restaurants coming into Webster street this place needs to step up their game and their customer service. read more

I've been here twice and both times service was extremely slow. Food selection is straightforward and simple but how can one mess up a sandwich? Asked for no mustard and no peppers but my salami sandwich came with peppers. Simple to fix on my own but they forgot my smoothie and didn't bring utensils and napkins. When I went back to enquire the server seemed perturbed that I was asking. I've always supported local businesses but poor service on two separate occasions makes me reluctant to patronize. read more

Not sure why I continue to give this place so many chances. Every time I order a breakfast burrito they screw it up. Today they forgot to add the eggs to my breakfast burrito. Today was the last time I go to WesCafe. It sucks because I want to keep it local, but luckily there are so many options in Alameda. read more

We tried Wescafe today. I was unimpressed. Service was good, but we got something we didn't order, and missed something we did. The sausage was clearly frozen patties, and the syrup...IDK what that stuff was, but it definitely wasn't maple. We won't be back. read more

Great smoothie. They forgot my order. I had to check in and they said they were still working on it but three people got their orders before me. They lose a star for that and they lose two stars for lying to me. Honest business is better business. I also didn't like how they handed me my food over the counter and served everyone else their food. They were not apologetic about it but made excuses. read more

Have been going to Wescafe almost every week for the last 6 months. They have a huge variety of coffee and food, so this is a great spot for breakfast or lunch. The atmosphere is warm and inviting: simple tasteful decor and a friendly (and personal after your first few trips) staff. If you are looking for a bustling neighborhood cafe with a great vibe and plenty of places to park with a great book or a group of friends, this is the place for you! read more

Horrible experience this morning, I accidentally picked up the wrong drink and the guy that made the drink just gave it to me because I accidentally sipped on it but afterward he decided to still talk about my mistake to another customer which was very unprofessional, the breakfast sandwich took extra long and was bland and very dry. Overall this place sucks, lazy workers, bad service and weak.... Breakfast sandwiches. I won't be back read more

This place is a great cafe. They have a large selection and the service is great. They also have gluten free bread which is amazing!! Make sure to try the macaroons, best coconut macaroon I've ever had! read more

This is my favorite breakfast /coffee shop in Alameda. Great food, lots of seating, and the large coffee is enormous. The people who work here are super nice, and it's just the right amount of quiet to read a book while having a giant glass of coffee. read more

For the last few months, I have been on a quest for a good breakfast/brunch place in Alameda and still have yet to find THE ONE. This place is supposed to be pretty popular but very meh to me. You go up to the counter to order and they hand you a number. The menu isn't very large and the food takes a while to come out. I think their best mark are their coffee drinks and not their food so if you're looking for a coffee shop to hang out at, this would probably better for that. I wouldn't take a family here for a breakfast meal though. There is plenty of seating and pretty spacious. read more

I don't know if this place changed owners in the last few years, but they used to serve flavorful food, and had an interesting sandwich menu. Came yesterday and ordered their black forest ham sandwich and it was the worst sandwich I've ever had: ham and sundried tomatoes were completely tasteless; the dijon mustard didn't taste like dijon at all, and the bread was stale. I figured they were using cheap ingredients so didn't bother to ask them to replace my order. It seems that they're serving overall bland food because they decided to go cheap. Funny, I believe they revamped the place a few years ago but not the food. read more

great atmosphere, but too bad the service was horrible. They forgot my friends order several times and by the time her food came out, I was done eating. Oh to make it worst, we had to get our own utensils. We asked two separate people and both ignored us.... read more

This is one of our favorite restaurants on the island. Walking down on the weekend is part of our routine. The food is consistently good-always fresh and tasty, never over-seasoned; the staff is friendly, even when it's hectic and they just put a permanent shade fixture up on the patio and plan to add more tables. New bonus: fresh made Hibiscus Tea, Watermelon Limeade and Cucumber Pineapple Juice. They don't offer them everyday so it's a delicious surprise to walk in and find something refreshing to try, especially on a sunny day. read more

If I could give this place 0 stars I would. Our food wasn't fresh. It wasn't even warm. The waiter complained when we asked for him to clean the table, when we asked for plastic utensils, and when we asked for warmed syrup. The cashier also complained when we told him that our food wasn't warmed saying "well what do you want us to do? Nobody has complained except for you" ... just a terrible experience at a terrible place. Definitely wouldn't recommend. read more

Best sit down spot in Alameda to have breakfast. Love the fresh squeezed o.j. Friendly service and lovely patio area. Weekend brunch is the best. Pastries are Devine. read more

Love the beautiful west end WesCafe! The owners and staff always return my smile. My foods and drinks are always ready within a reasonable amount of time, even when they get busy (on market days especially). The crowd is always varied - from City of Alameda employees, to mamas and babies, college students, and elderly folks on a walk. Everyone seems comfortable and welcome. I like doing laptop work there, or bringing a book. I tried the Marc smoothie last time I was in - it did not disappoint! It has about 8 different ingredients which all blend really well together, and it's named after my old boss (a Wescafe regular). Nice size, too. Try the back patio for a change of scenery! Wi-fi password is E55PRESSO - but they have helpful slips of paper at the register if you ask. read more

Gave it two stars because the girl who took our order was nice. Food was awful though :( potatoes were gummy. Eggs were super overcooked missing the cheese and they put rotten avocado on the top!! I get it avocado gets brown spots sometimes but this was like slimy brown. Had an anericano that tasted burnt. Won't go here again. read more

The spinach and feta croissant is everything! The employees are so sweet and I just love the vibes of this cafe. Such a gem!

Wescafe is great. Friendly, good food, great location and patio. We spend many a weekend miring there, especially after the farmers market. Any of the eggs Benedict are amazing and I love their take on huevos rancheros. read more

Dirty, chipped plates. Dirty tables. Staff takes your pasties and food with bear hands. Salad stale, tomatoes smell like meat - apparently use the same non lean knife. Potatoes old. After looking at their food, my hanger was gone!!! Some staff wearing their outside baseball hats!!! read more

Been going to this coffee shop every day for a week. The pastries are amazingly delicious and fresh! The people who work there couldn't be nicer or more helpful. Love sitting on the patio out back. It's pretty and its peaceful. My personal garden while I'm there! read more

This place is so-so. The eggs Benedict wasn't amazing and the coffee is extremely strong. I love strong coffee, but it's way too strong. This place is perfect for snacks and a drink, but that's it read more

I came here with a large group for a business lunch. I wanted to get the turkey sandwich on their menu however they were out of turkey. i substituted a hot chicken breast. I also ordered a full lental and veggie soup. The soup was very good and the sandwich was even better. We also took up two tables and stayed for 2 hours during a busy Sunday. They did not rush us and were very accommodating. A fantastic experience all the way around! read more

Wes Cafe is in a GREAT location for morning coffee near the casual carpool and bus lines. It's really cute inside and good for meeting a friend or working on your computer. It really needs to step it up on food and drink options!! The pastries look like the Costco variety and all the food options are basic. Coffee is often burn and all milk alternatives other than soy do not come out well. Green tea latte is beyond sweet. read more
