    The outside feels busy, but once you walk in, it's a great place to study or get some work done.

    A coffee shop that has soy as an alternative? That made me incredibly happy :) Yummy mocha Helpful friendly service Thank you!

    Matcha Honey Latte

    Sweet folks... Matcha is unfortunately brown and not green. Wouldn't recommend. For food, the breakfast croissants are good with chili oil.

    The matcha is BROWN Someone said the matcha here is next to what she had in Seoul, Korea btw... Will try food instead next time.

    Not everyday you find a cafe with quiet working space, outlets, soft (&good) music, and AMAZING (properly made) chai! Highly recommend

    Friendly staff, quiet working space, amazing chai! Highly recommend for working from cafe vibes

    Soy, extra-hot white mocha that I don't even have to order anymore she just smiles and says, "Your usual? I absolutely love it here

    Everything about this establishment is exceptional. From the moment you arrive, you're greeted with a warm smile that sets the tone for the experience. The customer service is outstanding, the food quality is top-tier, and the ambience is inviting and well curated. You will not be disappointed at this location--staff presentation, attentiveness, and their willingness to go the extra mile are simply part of their standard of service

    Croissant with spinach, eggs, onion in the back is my guy's garlic potatoes and a lox bagel
    Angelin R.

    My guy lives a few blocks from here. His go-to is a lox bagel with cream cheese on asiago bagel with a side of their garlic potatoes. I finally got to try it. Here it goes. Clean restroom, clean restaurant. Friendly service. Latte was nothing special, but it tasted good and was reasonably priced. I ordered a croissant with spinach, onion, egg and mayo. It was delicious. I am not a Mayo person. But this blended in nicely. Restaurant has extra tables so you can spaciously enjoy your meal while working on your laptop. Or enjoying time with a friend. Oh and my guys potatoes. Order those. Maybe not just before a first date. But definitely order them. I will definitely be back.

    California Chicken Panini
    Yuyi T.

    This local cafe is hands down one of my top 5 favorite spots in Oakland. My husband and I come here at least once a week, and my go to order is the California chicken sandwich (I always ask for no onions!). They serve the sandwich with homemade chili oil sauce *chef kiss*!!! If you're in the mood for it, I highly recommend the taro latte. Not only the food is delightful, but Jasmine and Richard are the other reason that keep us coming back. They are warm, conversational, and kind, which makes us feel so comforting just to be in their presence Last but not least, the space is so cool, we LOVE the drawings and being able to add to the creativity as customers. Thank you Jasmine and Richard for keeping the door open of such a gem of a place!

    Turkey and Cheddar Panini
    Nathan D.

    I will drive out of my way to get the turkey and cheddar panini, it is soooo tasty!! Good mimosas as well!

    Macchiato

    Absolutely amazing bagels! The food was so so good! Jasmine is so nice! No matter how busy she is she always greats us with love!! The entire staff is as well! Thank you yall

    Apri Mango with chamoy smoothie
    Lee M.

    I love Cafe Uccello! The folks that work there are so nice and friendly and the food is terrific and the prices are more than fair for the quality and portion size! I love the turkey and the portobello mushroom panini (respectively). Their garlic potatoes are so delicious, my partner and I always have to get them when ordering food. We mostly come there for the delicious juices. My partner loves smoothies but hates bananas, which can be very limiting for him. Uccello has a big selection of banana-free options (and plenty with bananas, if desired). His favorites are the apri mango with chamoy spices (kind of like bebere/tagine spice) and the taro smoothies. The smoothies have milk, but the staff are more than happy to substitute with non-dairy milk. There are also chills, which are fruit juices blended with ice, which are perfect for hot days and lighter to drink. He also recommends the recovery juices for those days when he needs something more healthy feeling and restorative. We like hanging out here while waiting for May burritos next door. He'll get a delicious juice and I will sip on a Modelo while we wait. The ambiance is great for sitting around temporarily or longer, as I see folks camped out with their laptops and coffee.

    Breakfast croissant with Turkey Sausage, Egg, and Cheddar
    La M.

    First of all this food is BUSSINNNN!!!!! I ordered the breakfast croissant with turkey sausage, egg and substitute cheddar for pepper jack. Along a dirty chai (house made chai with a shot of espresso) with oat milk. The croissant is nice and flaky. They use REAL eggs and REAL CHEESE. The turkey sausage got to be house-made because it taste like love. This is a great atmosphere to get some work done. They have a large sitting area that gives a homey feel with markers to write on the wall. I definitely made the right choice of where to have breakfast today and in the future because I will be back! The staff is super friendly. Each item was walked over to where I was sitting from behind the counter. Royal treatment :-*

    Is there a space/room available to hold a private meeting for 10?

    I believe they do! I would give them a call to double check, the restaurant staff is really nice.

    Is this a good place for a friend and me to sit down, chat, and do some writing? Looking for a somewhat quiet space to get creative :)

    No doubt! It's a nice quiet place early in the morning. I imagine lunchtime is not as quiet but it's a wonderful place, great food and really nice staff.

Got lucky and parked two blocks away. 10 of their beers on tap; the rest are guest taps. So of course, I had to try their $3 signature Lager - Too light for me, basically you get what you pay for. Next... Pale Ale - $7, now that's more like it! No IPA today, so I had to settle. My daughter got the Yard Bird, Strawberry Lemonade Beer. Suits her. Ready for my 3rd beer, when my daughter said she wanted to go home and party some more?!?! So I abided. Lovely's restaurant is also here on the premises. See pictures and other 5 star Yelp review. Ambiance - Cool space. Lots of semi private spaces that you can rent. See pictures or their website. Very kid and dog friendly! Unisex restrooms with outside sinks, thank you! NO parking! So bad on a Saturday evening that we almost did not come. Open 6 days a week - see picture or their website. Closed on Mondays. Service - Counters service. For both the bar and Lovely's. The outdoor bar has WAY faster service than the inside bar, just an FYI. Price - Affordable, especially for the Bay Area. Just left South Lake Tahoe and paid $9 - $10 + tip a beer there, but you know that because you are following. Owner Comment - Congrats to the building since 1919. Congrats on your success since 2021; glad we were able to visit.

I enjoyed all the brews I've tried here, and there's one I'm still on the hunt to find again from here -- it was simply salt and lime light beer?? Still won't stop talking about it.

We sat at that patio next to the fires and ordered a few beers from their long list. We also grabbed a pizza, as I had not had one in a while, and the chicken Tikka Masala Pizza looked good. I enjoyed my IPA while she enjoyed her Lager, and when the pizza came out, it looked fabulous. We dug into and both agreed it was amazing. We scarfed down that pizza and chugged our beers and had an amazing time as always at Drakes!

They have an upstairs and downstairs area. Just note there's not A/C, so the upstairs area can get warm on hotter days.
