Staff were friendly, very knowledgeable, and helpful. I ordered a mocha and later a red tea and…read morethey were both excellent. Definitely coming back! Baristas explained that they are up for trying different and sometimes unusual combinations for their customers. I wasn't adventurous this time, but it made me want to explore in the future. I came here to work, hoping for a relatively warm and cozy spot that wasn't too sleepy. I was not disappointed. The wifi was good, music was fun and unobtrusive. Decorations and layout gave a friendly, welcoming environment. Not only were the benches and padded chairs comfy, the ambiance was kept even in the bathroom. Spacious, warm lighting, cute bathroom with a great mirror and cool sink. I don't ever ding places for hospital-looking bathrooms (you know, fluorescent lights, questionable floors, sand paper toilet paper...) but this was one of the few where I was impressed. Good to know: Jaffa cakes are only available on the weekend Parking: Some of the streets nearby are resident-only parking so make sure to double check!

We were greeted by the loveliest person when we walked in. He was helping someone in front of us…read morewho seemed like a lot, kept interrupting those around her after she ordered but the person running the front was patient and kind. I ordered a cortado which was good while the hubby ordered the orange latter. We were told ordering it iced makes it a tad sweeter and that was correct advice. The latte was sweet but still delicious. I'd probably order it hot next time. It's a large space with merchandise, beans, and accessories for sale. They've also got a good sized menu for coffee and tea drinkers alike.

Honestly I didn't know what to expect when entering this place -- other than the fact that I knew I…read morewas in for a treat of speciality drinks and more. Originated in San Francisco, they're locally roasted and transported to this side of the East Bay, and I'm so grateful it's steps away from the Downtown Berkeley BART Station. The seating is quite limited, so it depends on what time you get there -- but I will say that their drinks are PHENOMENAL. The aroma of the arabica beans really ring through the whole coffee shop, and their pastries are no different. I got their ube latte and sweet ricotta toast, both of which were absolutely delicate. The ube latte, paired with oat milk, made it absolutely creamy and sweet, without having to worry about the lactose portion of the things. Ambiance was okay -- I just wish it was a little more spacious, with better access to the coffee bar. There was a line there, but honestly, not too bad of a wait. The baristas were nice and very chill, and very helpful when it came to coffee drink suggestions.

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.

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!

I am a way station aficionado…read more Granted, they fucked up one time when they gave me pickles on my cheeseburger when I'm utterly disgusted by the smell and texture of it. Anyway, their sourdough bread with butter and jelly is everything. There was a time that I ordered it religiously. Now, the organic yogurt with granola is my latest obsession. This review isn't to just rave about the food, I want to give a special shoutout to the gal with the dark hair and cheetah top killing it in the kitchen. She has so much passion for ensuring that the orders are correct. Above all, the food seems delicious. As of now, I haven't heard anyone complain. To the owner reading this, give the gal a raise! ~Happy Holiday's
