Gio special on the left and Denver Omelette on the right! Both tasted delicious and were very satisfying!

Friendly service, covered outdoor seating, delicious food - got it all covered! We were looking for lunch after finding nearby Assemble was closed and we got lucky with Bubbaloo. Ordered inside and they brought our food to our outdoor table. The salmon sandwich and sourdough burger sandwich were tasty and they are generous with the fries. Our dogs were quite happy to share. read more

Bubbaloo Cafe - the tv and the great view they have - Sandwiches Near Me - Richmond, California

Someone has to be the hero and let Bubbaloo's know that their rice is garbage. I love their food but their rice is a bland nasty gummy mess. I thought the first few times that it was someone goofing up on the rice but no they honestly think that is how rice is suppose to be served. If you had sushi this rice is stickier than that. Other than that they have great chicken sandwiches , zucchini, loaded fries, lumpias and other items are great but that rice tho no The 1 star is only for the rice nothing else OH and the fact that they don't have a second line it takes 30 mins to get through to order your food read more

During the height of the pandemic we would ride by this place on our bikes and it seemed it was always closed. Well, now they have "re-opened" and apparently expanded their hours, Wow! we've only had breakfast but I have to say their Sisig breakfast actually had authentic Sisig, not the heavily toned down Sisig you get at mainstream places like Senior Sisig (having said that Senior Sisig is a great place for a meal). The Longganisa breakfast was also legit. Of course they have traditional breakfast too. The Menu is diverse and traditional at the same time. Kind of fusion but not over the top. The coffee bar is also great. An Oat Milk latte is easy to mess up, but the barista knew what she was doing. We noticed that many of the early lunch customers during this work week were big burly blue collar guys. I mention this because big burly blue collar guys tend to frequent places that provide good cost-to-quality/quantity ratios, and Bubbaloo Cafe does just that. Prices are fair, the ambience is nice, modern furniture spread apart, there is a roomy covered outdoor patio with piped in soft jazz, and a beautiful indoor mural. The staff is very nice and professional. Location is excellent due to the ease of parking and proximity to the Bay Trail via the Richmond Marina just behind the cafe. So you can consume an excellent meal and after, go for a nice stroll to work it off. Based upon the amazing breakfast we had, this will be our "go to" breakfast spot for us. We definitely want to try lunch next too. Highly recommend. read more

Solid sandwiches and fries. My go to place mainly because I work down the street. Had the philly steak and chicken Sando. Both are great.

I would give it 4.5 if I could, but since the staff was super nice and I truly did enjoy my experience, I'm giving it 5. I had the French Toast Combo. The eggs were great but the potatoes could've used a little bit more flavor. The bacon was pretty crispy, I liked it, but if you like yours with a bit more chew, you should ask for it. The French toast had the perfect amount of softness, but had a bit too much cinnamon caked on for me. Overall, the food was really good, with just a couple small things that could be done better. I'll definitely come back here though. read more

Bubbaloo Cafe - Short ribs - Sandwiches Near Me - Richmond, California

Ventured out to this spot a few weeks ago. Co-worker thought we should check it out. So far I've tried their hamburger, chicken Ceasar salad and their salmon sandwich. They're so good. The hamburger is juicy, thick patties and lots of condiments and flavorful. The Ceasar salad is HUGE and nice chunks of good tasting chicken. And last but not least their salmon sandwich is soooo good. Don't get discouraged by driving out to their location, it's worth the drive, their employees are nice, lots of parking, clean and great food. read more

The food is very good especially the bagels and the service is amazing with good ambiance.

This place was seriously, finger licking good! My boyfriend, son and I were a bit frustrated because we couldn't agree on something to eat. The place we finally agreed on was extremely busy their phone line was busy for over 30 minutes. If you live in Richmond, you know that we're limited on good quality food. My boyfriend happened to run into to place on Yelp. They looked amazing, so we took a chance and ordered Pork Lumpia, Banh Mi, Shrimp Skewered Cesar Salad and Short Ribs and OMG!!!!!! It was amazingly delicious. We all sat at the table making savoring noises. We will be coming back for sure! read more

Amazing food and customer service !!!! They were very welcoming. Definitely recommend them to anyone in a rush who needs a good meal

Delicious salads ! Can't wait to go back! They have great customer service. I was out the door in no time. I recommend coming here

I found this place on here and was looking for a quick place to eat, their Thai iced tea was the best I everhad, their fries tasted like McDonald's fries which Is really good and they actually have a huge menu, I've been 2 times and I got a Philly cheesesteak and the Louisiana wings, both delicious and it came out quick. read more

So happy to of found this delicious lunch spot in Richmond! Happened to be working in the area for the day and was craving some healthy food to keep me sustained through Bay Area traffic. This restaurant is tucked away in an industrial park and doesn't look like much from the outside. But dang! What a cool little hole in the wall! They have everything from artisan salads, fish and chips, soups and fun trendy plates. I had the lentil soup and side salad, and it was the perfect pick me up for a lunch. The only downside is the place was a little messy... granted it was in the middle of the much rush. But I had to find my own silverware and the tables were covered in the last customer's food. read more

My wife and I ate here for breakfast and really enjoyed the food. We shared the baguette breakfast sandwich and the breakfast burrito. Both were great! The bread and ingredients were fresh. I want to come back here for the Banh Mi and boba bar! read more

Friendly staff, cute neighborhood place, food is GOOD! I had the shrimp skewer salad the first time and today I had the Leeloo breakfast. *PLEASE add turkey sausage to your menu!!! Other than that I would've given 5 stars. read more

Everyone needs to visit this place for a good meal during lunch! Small business and I always feel welcomed as I walk in and order. Their food is great and their portions are great as well. I work around the corner and if I need a quick meal for my lunch, I know I can come here and get my money's worth. read more

Best tasting chicken teriyaki I've ever had! Generous portions. The side salad was fresh. Service was friendly and the food came out quickly. read more

My five stars is for the food. The food was delicious but customer service was more of a one star. There was no form of greeting at all from the cashier. She just starred at my boyfriend and I as we were looking at the menu and even when we were ready to order, she was still just starring at us and didn't say a single word until we put in our order. It was awkward, but I would definately go back for the food. read more

Only wish they were open on weekends! Salads are interesting and fresh, Bahn mih is delicious and the breakfast burrito is on point. Hard to find but worth it. read more

Really nice little breakfast place in Richmond. It's a little hard to find but worth it. The breakfast sandwich is HUGE! The breakfast burrito will keep you full all day. Really nice staff and good coffee too. It's worth a try. read more

I've had their blue cheeseburger, i love blue cheese so it was a great burger, tasted fresh and was very delicious, my son goes to the charter next door and loves their loaded fries and wings. Their bobas are also good. read more

I have to change my previous rating of 4 to 3. The Caesar Chicken Salad is my go to when coming here. Lately it's been a hit or miss. I was told yesterday there are multiple cooks. I like my grilled chicken cut in small pieces, however the last few times it hasn't been and the chicken taste a bit mushy. Not cool at all! read more

I had the portobello artichoke sandwich it was delicious. The cilantro dressing was tasty.

I decided to try this hidden gem considering the positive reviews. It was a complete disappointment as the grilled lemongrass chicken seemed old as if it was marinated too long and tasted as if was boiled instead of grilled. I felt a huge let down as I've had great experiences from many Vietnamese and Thai food restaurants in the Bay Area for years. I felt deceived or maybe it was a bad day on their part but at least I gave it a chance. read more

I work about 10 feet away from here so I go here a lot Espresso drink are pretty low quality and the coffee is really really really strong (to the point where it tastes bad) but the Vietnamese coffee is pretty good Everything for lunch here is pretty good but nothing really stands out as being amazing The plates are the best thing I think with the lemon grass chicken being the best read more

I looked online for a restaurant near the location of our visit to Richmond and Bubbaloo Cafe's varied menu and casual atmosphere was just what I was looking for. I was not disappointed! The Cafe is clean, has plenty of room for dining inside or on their patio, and the service was excellent. Ordering takes place at the counter and they got everything perfectly correct, even with my changing a side dish mid-order. The food was delivered to our table in a reasonable amount of time, was hot, and very tasty, with generous portions. Would go there again for sure! read more

The lemongrass chicken Banh mi and blue ribbon chicken sandwich were super delicious! Chicken was well marinated and tasty, moist, and grilled free to order. The veggies were fresh, side salad with cilantro dressing was super tasty, and the fried were crispy! The prices are shot high but you get a lot of generous portion size for what you pay for. The sandwiches are huge and good for two meals. The Vietnamese iced coffee is a tad sweet for my taste but still delicious. Would definitely come back here! read more

I ordered the Fish & Fries and changed my fries to Loaded Fries. The dish was awesome! Whoever made my food really took the time to prepare everything perfectly! The Fish was fried perfectly and my Loaded Fries were prepared so nicely I almost didn't want to dig in because it looked like it was prepared for a photo shoot! Thanks Bubbaloo Cafe, you never let me down! read more

Ordered the teriyaki chicken sandwich... big, fresh, delicious. It comes with a large fresh delicious garden salad (or fries). Nice spacious, casual environment. All for $8.50..well worth it. read more

Oily omelette and frozen cheap hashbrowns! Not bad for a quick coffee and snack but if you have it there options, avoid this cafe. The photos are misleading - the cafe doesn't open to the waterfront! read more

Really yummy! I had the Banh mi and my husband had the hamburger. Both were delicious. The bread that made the Banh mi was crisp and so good. I had the chicken version and it was well marinated and flavorful. There was an aioli on the hamburger that was really good too. Service was very friendly. read more

This place is just too good not to bring back to a 5. Get the salmon sandwich or the lemongrass chicken and rice. Split it. Yum.

Love this place. Location very peaceful, good timing with my food and the chef awesome guy..

The girl at the counter, long discolored hair. HAHAHA. The least you could do is be polite. It's not busy. It's nice in here, but if she doesn't step it up with her customer service, we aren't coming back. I work customer service, no matter how bad it is, you don't take that crap out on the customer. You don't wanna be here? Then quit. I would've given this place at least a 4 or 5, but this girl... Gave it a 3. What a waste, the art and setup is so pretty too. Oh wells! If your customer service is bad AT a customer service based location... THEN THATS ON YOU. read more

Ate here a couple of weeks ago. Unlike Albertino's review on day one, I visited on day that was sunny. By my calculations, it was 58.76 degrees Fahrenheit, winds were coming in at a mildish 10 mph from the northwest, and the forecast for the rest of the month was clear, which made it perfect for a latte but does weather really matter in a yelp review? I was hungry, not hangry just yet, but definitely hungry. Maybe a 6 out of 10 hungry; Not quite to need a Snickers. I wasn't about to turn to Aretha Franklin but apparently Albertino was there, cause dude reviews like a diva. Ok enough about stupid reviewers on yelp. I had the grilled pork banh mi and the shaking beef. I had to try them both! The banh mi was great. The addition of the avocado was perfect to cut the spice and give it a creamy texture. Then there's the dressing for the salad. Usually when you get a salad, it's nothing more like garnish for the rest of the meal. But the salad with that dressing made it absolutely amazing. With shaking beef, you really do need to start with good quality beef, and this did not disappoint. Extremely tender cubes of meat just rightly seasoned and perfectly quick cooked. So when the weather outside falls between 0 degrees and 120 degrees Fahrenheit. And the sun is hiding behind clouds or in full blast or anywhere in between. And you're enjoying the marina bay area of Richmond, come by here and get your grub on. read more

Was dragged over to what I call the Richmond's answer to SF's Moscone Center. by a friend who was visiting some incubator called Topline and hung at the cafe waiting for them. Anyway, last time I was in these parts was when they had that Cannabis Convention a couple of years ago. No, I don't inhale. Back to my review... For a cafe, it was clean and other than noticing the bathroom was sharable and had janitorial supplies in it, I think Bubbaloo deserves FIVE STARS. This is based on the area (Richmond) and that they can't have that much business out in the boonies.. matter of fact, should be called Boonie Cafe (hah). Serious, it's way out there, and my salami sandwich and accompanied fruit salad tasted so fresh and looked non-thrown together. I stayed there for awhile snacking cookies and brownies and they seemed fresh ... so either they make it there or order daily. I thought I was burdening them; kept asking for free stuff like hot water and extra sauce for the wings but they were cool and quite hospitable. Yes,I pigged out there a little but again, it's their attitude I found refreshing - so again, I do appreciate them making feel chill in Richmond. Oh, a plug to that Topline incubator next door - they have a CRM program to help all their little start-ups become larger start-ups. read more
