Brought me back to my childhood in Saudi Arabia. The barista was welcoming and the overall vibe was quiet even with the music. I would come here to study. I ordered the orange blossom mint decaf and it was delicious. I should have gotten the Turkish coffee but my body can't handle the caffeine.

The aesthetic is 10/10 with the cool ceiling tiles and murals about Yemeni coffee history. It is way better than sitting in a crowded library basement. Service The staff is honestly so sweet. The server was super welcoming and actually took the time to say hi. You don't always get that when places are busy so it felt very community oriented. Coffee and Food I ordered the Heyma Latte and it was gas. The espresso is smooth and not bitter at all. The latte art was actually insane and I almost didn't want to drink it. They also have some wild sounding specialty drinks like a Dubai Latte and a Banana Date Smoothie that I am definitely coming back for when I need a midterm pick me up. Ambiance The marble tables and the lighting make it a great place to post up with a laptop or just hang with friends. It is clean, cozy, and just has a really good energy. Definitely adding this to the regular rotation. If you are tired of the same three coffee shops you need to check this place out.

What a delightful find after a morning of bike ride into Berkeley. We stashed our bikes and…read morequickly became immersed with the variety of colorful, tantalizing pastries beautifully displayed inside the cafe. Eclairs galore! Friendly server quickly got our tea and iced latte out. I also couldn't resist a chocolate dipped scallop shaped cookie which turned out to be two sandwiched together. Very flaky texture and lightly sweetened which was perfect. We saw that they also offered different savory sandwiches and a "French taco" lol. Will have to return and try next time!

My boyfriend and I grabbed a quick lunch here after studying next door at Heyma. The cashier was…read morereally friendly and answered all our questions. We shared the Merguez Sandwich and a Rose Pistachio Turkish Delight. They don't have any indoor seating but have a few tables outside. We waited about 10 minutes for our sandwich. The sandwich was delicious! We got it medium spicy and it was perfect for us. I would have loved it if it had a bit more sauce to it because it was a bit dry but the flavor was great. The turkish delight was so yummy and I thought it was also well priced. I'll happily be back in the future to try more of their foods and pastries! There was also plenty of street parking in the neighborhood.

Our second coffee stop in Berkeley brought us to Masterpiece Coffee…read more Since we'd already had our first cup, we decided to step outside our usual order and try something different the Kuro and Shiro lattes. They were good, but for me, nothing beats my go-to favorites: a classic Mocha or Vanilla Latte. Sometimes you just have to stick with what you love! The café itself is small, charming, and cozy. One unique touch is the little boutique inside, where you can browse while waiting for your coffee. It's a cute detail that adds to the overall experience. If you're exploring Berkeley and enjoy discovering local coffee spots, Masterpiece Coffee is worth checking out. You might even find your new favorite drink!

The turkey was some cheap weird tasting slices, and the salad had like cheap wishbone dressing on it. 1/5 horrible wouldn't order it again. The lemonade waa very bitter and sugary at the same time. I added a lot of water to it. The orange juice was bitter and watery. Overall at almost $30 it's definitely not worth it. I wanted to give this place 2 stars really. Ny coworker's Lemon bar was very stale and gross 1/5 stars. My coworker also didn't like the mocha and didn't finish it 3/5 stars. Parking is difficult to find, food was horrible, we won't be back since we didn't have a good experience.

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.
