Sana'a Cafe has officially become one of my absolute favorite cafes in the Bay Area! Every single drink we ordered was made exactly the way I wanted. If you're looking for a recommendation, you definitely have to try the redbull mojito it's the best refresher in the menu. On top of the incredible drinks, the cafe has such a good breakout area and vibe for hanging out with friends. 10/10 highly recommend! read more

From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by how clean and welcoming the place felt, filled with nothing but happy customers enjoying themselves. I was honestly a little nervous to come in at first because it was pretty crowded, but the second Bahar at the front cashier greeted me with such a warm smile, I immediately felt comfortable and welcomed. Now I'm sitting here enjoying the amazing atmosphere, perfectly balanced music, delicious fatayer, and the most authentic Adani chai I've had in a long time. It tastes exactly like home, and that feeling is priceless. Truly a place that makes you feel right at home. This will definitely be my after work spot!! ALLAHUMA BARIK read more

Brand new spot. Open for about 3 months. This place is fancy. Lots of table. You can scan the qr code on the table to order. Really friendly service. I got the iced biscoff latte. You really have to mix it. It wasn't as sweet as I wanted. But I drank it. Next time I'm going to try their Pistachio latte. I'll be back read more

Came here on a breakfast date with my bby. Had busy day ahead of us so why not treat ourselves! Our thing has been lately discovering new coffee shops. You order on a kiosk and from there the barista makes your drink. There are plenty of options of pastries to pick from. I love this new coffee shop so unique! My bby got a caramel latte and I got a hot coco both delicious! Definitely will stop by again! read more

Maybe they're known for other items, but it's not an excuse for their "matcha" (which I'm hesitant to even call it that) to be horrendously bad. On top of it already being expensive, oat milk substitutions were $1.50, and for them to serve me a drink that was 85% milk, 10% syrup, and 5% "matcha" is outright embarrassing. At that point, take it off the menu if you can't make it right. Luckily I got a refund, but service was very slow on a Saturday morning with two people working. Interior was clean, but I won't be coming back here. read more

Sana'a Cafe - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Hayward, California

A lovely spot for ambiance, but needs better quality control on food. The pros: a clean interior with cute trinketd, prompt service, and easy parking in the back lot. The cons: the pastries. The kids and I tried the chocolate, plain and pistachio croissants. Unfortunately, both the chocolate and pistachio were stale. The pistachio filling was overwhelmingly sweet, and the chocolate croissant had absorbed other food flavors from storage. I might come back to try the Qishr drink, I would think twice about the pastries. read more

Just came in to pick up an order from their app. I didn't see my coffee to pick up on the counter rack this time and it was past my pick up time. I asked about it and she got my name and said "oh it's not on there because we're out of pistachio" I said oh it's not updated on your app. Didn't even apologize and asked if I wanted another option. I had no choice it was paid for so I just got an iced coffee. The thing is, I wasn't even given an apology, or offered like a free pastry or an inconvenience item or a credit or anything in that sort because of the error that they made it was very nonchalant. I don't know if I'll come in again. I thought they were better than this from the 1st time I went in. I recommend that they should update everything on their app. In the future, I suggest that you call before you order anything from their app. Just be better next time with your customers especially if an item is out. read more

I love this location, it's conveniently on my way home so no having to detour and go all the way to Oakland when I want to indulge in a sweet craving. Sana'a's is definitely my guilty pleasure. The ambience is so nice, space is open and cozy, yet roomy. It looks absolutely luxurious inside and out! Service was the best. They were pretty prompt for how busy it was last Friday night at 8:30pm when I decided to stop by. So glad I did! I got the Pistachio Cheesecake my favorite 10/10 Beef Fatayer 10/10 Iced Biscoff Latte 10/10 From service to food to drinks, it was all amazing. I definitely recommend if you're in the area. read more

I used to work in Oakland and would always stop by their location there. Now that I work in Hayward and they opened a location here, I will be here every day! My favorite coffee. The inside is gorgeous. A lot of design. They have a moderate sized parking lot. Tons of delicious food options! Desserts are also so good. This might be my hands down favorite coffee shop I've ever been to. The staff is always friendly. The managers also roam the floor checking in on you and are nice to talk to! This place is unbeatable. 10/10 Everytime I come!!! Must try. read more

Sana'a Cafe - Brown sugar latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Hayward, California

My coworker had been talking about coming here since before they opened so we decided to just stop by and get some drinks for lunch. Interior is sooo beautiful and perfectly decorated. It is incredibly clean with plenty of really nice seating. Employees are really nice and the owner (i think?) talked to us for a bit and gave me a free cheesecake. They were so nice and service was fast!! I ordered a matcha latte with oat milk. It was ok! I think i should have gotten it with regular milk and i do like my matcha on the stronger side. Next time i'd like to try the biscoff latte or one of the Yemeni specialty drinks!! I also ordered some baklava (easily one of my top 5 desserts ever) and they were rlly good. My fave was the cheesecake the owner gave me!! Soft, fluffy cheesecake. Not too dense like a NY cheesecake. Graham cracker crust was amazinggggg and it had pistachio cream drizzle (i think) that paired sooo well. So delish, drooling thinking ab it rn lol. Can't wait to go here again!! read more

The latest Yemeni coffee and pastry chain offering a variety of espresso drinks, Specialty Yemeni iced and hot drinks, refreshers, smoothies, teas and traditional sweet and savory items. I've been to their other locations in Downtown Oakland and in Mountain View and really enjoy: :: Adeni chai - black tea, cardamom and cream - strong milk tea with evaporated milk :: Yemeni Mofawar - medium roast coffee with cream and cardamom Sana'a Cafe drinks are bold with strong cardamon and other spices. Pastries are decent and worth a try. If you like cheesecake, Sana'a Cafe's version has Middle Eastern flavors (rose, pistachio) lighter texture, less sweet and not as dense/creamy as American styles. Texture more of an unbaked cheesecake and not a fan...just a preference. Baklavas are flaky and not overly sweet. I prefer the savory items like the chicken muskhan (rolled flatbread with shredded chicken, caramelized onions, sumac, cinnamon) and fatayers (dough with ground meat, spices, onions and folded into a triangle) chicken and beef. Both delicious but wish they had offered some yogurt-tahini sauce to accompany. Service ok. Interior beautiful and spacious with plenty of patio seating. Private parking lot behind with limited street parking on busy Mission Blvd. read more

We are excited that this location finally opened. As with their other locations, the interior of the cafe is beautiful. We came here for a pistachio latte and also a pastry on a weekday morning. It was definitely a nice treat and a little pricier, but the ambiance of this shop is nice. The pistachio latte is a little more on the sweeter side, but still pretty good. The pistachio baklava was pretty good -- very crunchy, sweet and the pistachios were fresh. However, we do think the oil it was prepared with was kind of old, since it had a sharp taste to it otherwise the pastry was fresh, just had old oil. Overall, we are happy that this shop is in the neighborhood with a beautiful space to study and meet with folks, and a big parking lot. This is a great addition to the neighborhood. read more

Sana'a Cafe - Pistachio Bak lava and Pistachio Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Hayward, California

I really wanted to like this place but it gave very weird vibes!! First of all, it's beautiful and the display of cakes and desserts look so delicious. My coworkers and I came here directly after a lunch meeting. We were full but we wanted maybe a tiny bite of sweets and some coffee. We ordered a biscoff cheesecake and biscoff pastry along with tea, coffee, and a fruit drink. The drinks and cakes were good but the service was so strange. After we received our order, they had forgotten my coworker's coffee so he went up to the register to follow up and the immature boys started yelling at the cashier! He said he wasn't sure if they were related or siblings but that doesn't make it okay. At the end of our conversation there were still more than half of the pastry and cheesecake left because we really weren't hungry. We wanted to pack it up since we just had lunch prior. I went up to the cash register and the same immature boys were mumbling to themselves staring at us walking up and I heard one say "watch she'll ask for a box" which I did and they laughed and walked away and the girl, that they yelled at earlier, stepped up the cash register to help. What kind of a business is this? Very immature staff. Poor customer service. Very very strange & the poor girl they were berating for forgetting the drink.... I cannot in good conscience recommend a place like this. read more

Sana'a Cafe - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Hayward, California

Enjoyed my mocha here -- didn't just taste like chocolate milk as I've had at other places. I don't know if it was because the store was busy (lot of people there -- maybe due to World Cup on one of their big TV screens) but they made me order at the kiosk even though they had baristas there. Very good selection of desserts plus drinks. The parking is pretty tight but they do have a dedicated lot. Fun place to be if you want more of a social environment -- definitely too loud if you were trying to go and get work done. read more

I feel like I've been waiting forever for this cafe to open! I finally had a chance to stop by and I absolutely loved the space. Beautiful indoor seating with close attention to every detail. I also love they offer a variety of sweets, quick bites, tea, and coffee. It is on the more expensive side but this is a brand new establishment you are kind of paying for the experience and quality. The biscoff later was 100% worth it. Everyone was inviting and friendly I would come back! read more

Came here thinking it was your normal cafe place, but to my pleasant suprise, it is a yemeni cafe which is pure delight. I ordered the Mofawar, but it came with milk which I cant drink. MOE was helpful and replaced my order with an unsweetened cold brew Sana'ani which is fireee. He told me to wait, since he was getting it ready from a fresh batch for me. Great attitude & service! Place is clean, roomy, with wifi with lots of sunlight! read more

Waited an eternity for the Hayward location to be operational, and that sweet day is here! Been a big fan of their Adeni chai and have been to other locations but to have one right here in Hayward is!!!! Got the adeni chai, it was perfect. Also the rose milk cake which is really standard for milk cake. Service is efficient, and very respectful( which is oh so nice) . I love that this a big enough place where the intricate and traditional decor has space to shine. I'm also thankful there is a dedicated parking lot in the back so you don't have to look for parking on Mission Blvd. Although late at night the entire parking lot across the street could be empty and be useful to Sana'a patrons. What else can I say, life just got sweeter. read more

Such a calming quiet llace to enjoy some good coffee, tea, or refresher of your choice. Lovely staff that recommend the Mofawar and I loved that drink!

I also appreciate their hours open from 6am until 12 midnight. read more

Thank goodness for Sanaa! I hope ya'll put Starbucks out of business ;) TLDR; third space open later than anywhere else in this area, has solid wifi, great drinks and food items for every pallet. They are improving, give them time. I've been coming here since day 1 (they opened a couple of months ago). I've been almost every week since so I feel this is a good time to leave a review. Drinks? Excellent. I've tried their Sanaa latte, Yemeni latte, Matcha latte, Dirty Chai, Pistachio latte, and Adeni Chai. My go-to was the Sanaa latte for a while, but it changes week to week. Every single one has been great. There were times where my drink didn't taste right, but I always ask for them to fix it and they've always been very nice about it. Food? The best. I've tried almost every Fatayer and loved them all, except the Spinach. It was a little too bitter for my taste, but is probably yummy to someone else. I've tried the chicken muskan and the honey comb pastry, both delicious. Ugh and the biscoff cheesecake!!! The birds nest (next to the register) SO GOOD. You pretty much can't go wrong with anything sweet/savory here. Some things might not be for you depending on your taste buds, but doesn't warrant writing off the whole menu. Service, it was rough in the beginning , but I have noticed improvements over time. I can tell they are slowly getting their systems in order. They still have their off days, but I do not think that justifies a one star rating like some have left. People are human, give them a break. A note to other reviewers: businesses cannot improve if you don't let them know something is wrong. Instead of rushing to leave a negative review maybe talk to the manager/staff first so they can rectify the issue. I also don't think basing your review off of one bad day is fare (the day something was off with their online ordering system). Final notes: thank you for fixing the wi-fi and AC. The menu is also less confusing now compared to the old one. Keep making improvements. Ya'll are on the right track! So so grateful to have this beautiful, much needed, third space 5 minutes from my house. See ya'll soon! read more

Beautiful coffee and tea place in Hayward. The ambience of the cafe is cozy and a great place to catch up with some friends over coffee, tea, and/or pastries. I see myself studying or bringing my computer to do some work. Although, it was quite warm inside, so my friend and I sat outside on the outside patio. There is plenty of seating inside and outside. You can order on a self order kiosk. I ordered an iced adeni chai. This was a refreshing and the spice is not overpowering. The chicken fatayer came out warm. The outside was crispy and the chicken filling was flavorful yet a little dry. A sauce would compliment this pastry well. This place is located on a main street but there is a small parking lot and some street parking. I will definitely come back to try more pasteurized and drinks! read more

Walked in at 7:40 am, there's just the employees and two customers who are already sitting with their food & drinks. I order with the girl in the front since it's my 1st time here. I order an Iced Biscoff Latte Decaf and a Biscoff Danish total without tip is $15.09 (I did tip btw lol). Customer service is a little cold, maybe she didn't want to be bothered and prefers for customers to order through the kiosk or mobile!? Not sure, I sit and wait for my order which takes maybe less than 5 minutes. I say my thank you's and no response lol (hope her day gets better). My latte lacks the taste of coffee, it's basically milk with a spoonful of Biscoff , every sip is just chunks of Biscoff! The Danish is fine, tastes like a flat croissant with Biscoff paste slathered on top. Not sure if I will come back, at least to this location. I'll keep trying other Cafe recommendations. read more

Drinks were really good especially the Yemeni iced coffee. The matcha latte was decent but very sweet. Would definitely return for the Yemeni coffee. The baklava was very moist with just twist of chocolate. read more
