Ashley MowreyNovember 22, 2015If you like foamy cappuccinos, like cotton candy foam, this place is for you. I do love the interior, it's perfect for working and reading and the staff are really nice.
Take my advice and add a hard boiled egg to the avocado toast. Now one slice or two? 🤔
- The breakfast sandwich is one of my favorites in Oakland.
Look up rube in the dictionary and you'll find pictures of everyone who has paid $5 for a PB&J here. I was expecting something less basic
- If you want to try avocado toast for the first time, don't come here
