The only disappointment was learning that they don't warm their pastries. When I asked if my croissant could be heated, the barista said they don't do that and suggested I dip it in my coffee to warm it up. It felt a little awkward and caught me off guard. It's not a huge issue, but a warm croissant with a coffee shop drink feels like a pretty standard expectation. Overall, the latte was good, but I left wishing the pastry experience had matched it.

Since my husband was doing an iced Shiro, I went with a hot version of the Kuro. We both got whole milk rather than oat milk.

Took about 25 minutes to get my two drinks. It was nice that ordering is through a touch screen which made things move a teensy bit faster. I'd definitely come back to indulge in really nice cup of coffee and give myself some extra time to slow down and enjoy.

This is a great place, and a wonderful addition to the San Pablo community.

If you've ever had Arsicault, then you'll understand what I mean when I say this place is a true contender. And the best part? You don't have to travel far, pay that toll bridge, or deal with expensive gas. Save all that and give this place a try! Do note: Canelé -- available Friday to Sunday Pastel de nata (Portuguese tarts) -- available Saturday & Sunday What I've tried: Croissant -- Yum, yum, yum! From end to end, it has that perfectly crunchy exterior, and not a hollow bite in sight. Every bite is flaky, buttery, and satisfying. Chocolate Croissant -- A must if you love chocolate. Rich, flaky, and indulgent. Almond Croissant -- Another delicious contender. Nutty, sweet, and absolutely worth it. Apricot Croissant -- Not bad at all. The apricot adds a nice touch without overpowering the pastry. Bostock -- This one was a miss for me. It looked beautiful, but it was missing that little finesse that makes you want another bite. Gâteau au Fromage (Basque Cheesecake) -- A bit pricey, but so worth the splurge because they really know how to nail it. One bite and you won't be able to stop until it's gone. Pastel de Nata -- Crispy edges with a delicate, creamy, and delicious filling. That crunch is everything. Canelé -- These babies sell fast, so make sure to get there when they open. I love the crunchy exterior paired with that soft, custardy inside. Yum, yum, yum! Chocolate Fondant -- Not bad, but not my favorite. I've definitely had better elsewhere. Chocolate Hazelnut Cake -- The flavor was nice, but I found this one just a tad dry. Bottom line: While not everything was a home run, their croissants, canelés, Basque cheesecake, and pastel de nata are absolutely worth coming back for. A hidden gem that delivers big on flavor without the long drive. Definitely worth the visit!

It's definitely a nice place to sit and enjoy your food without feeling rushed. The food was really good and everything tasted fresh. We enjoyed what we ordered and thought it was a great little spot for breakfast/brunch. The staff was also friendly and welcoming, and the service was good. Food: Carrot cake is not too sweet, has seeds & minimal berries. If you're looking for something sweeter, this might not be for you! The mozzarella basil scone was very tasty! More savory & very soft Overall, I'm glad we didn't give up looking for it because it ended up being a really cute hidden gem in Berkeley! Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area.

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!

I got the black sesame expecting it to taste rich and sesame-like, such as Kaizen in San Mateo, which kind of sets the bar for specialty lattes. I was disappointed that I spent 75 extra cents over the price of a regular latte to get a black sesame latte that tasted essentially exactly like a regular latte. The black sesame flavor was completely undetectable. Not sure if this was a fluke or what, but still disappointing.
