Reviews for States Coffee x Bread in Oakland, CA
Good coffee! The alley next to it leads to a back patio with plenty of seating, check it out if you're eating there.
They use very quality ingredients and you can taste it. Very good with the pour too! Also the girl working there was very nice... and helpful to guide me on choosing one of their special drinks, great experience. Read more
There coffee is great quality. The oat milk isn't may favorite brand, but it pairs well with the acidity of the Ethiopian roast.... Yum. ...And the people were cool! Read more
Whoever was the barista that took my order and made my drinks was rude and dismissive. I?ve never dealt with them before, never... seen them before, but the way he was acting towards other customers, and then he sees me. It?s like I wasn?t even wanted as acustomer there. I get it, as a fellow barista at another specialty shop. There are customers that you enjoy talking to, but thatdoesn?t mean you should chat them up for 5 minutes straight while someone else is in line waiting to order, then proceed to bestraight rude and dismissive. Out of respect as a fellow barista, I still paid tip, I still thanked them for the coffee, and Istill told them to enjoy the rest of their day. But no response back, just gave me my drinks with attitude, and walked away. Thedrinks weren?t even at temp, were Lukewarm and super dry. I like the way States espresso shots taste like, but after that wholeevent. I was about to throw my coffee away into the trash because that barista killed my vibe, and expectations of the cafe. I?drather stick with the states out on San Pablo ave since I?ve always had good interactions with them. But this location isofficially off my list of cafes to frequent. Read more
Just got a fougasse, capp, and cheddar scallion scone. Staff was super friendly and attentive, capp was freaking way too hot!,... fougasse was a dream. The scone blegh, wish they would stop getting Starter pastries, but I figure they keep the pastriesbecause this store used to be Subrosa and people that frequented it expect those pastries. They have this amazing bread that ismade locally, why not toast it and serve it? I think they would create converts. First time in and would go again. Read more
Coffee was amazing, great prices, & easy parking. The gentleman working has positive and contagious energy..he went above and... beyond for my experience. This is now the GO-TO coffee if your in downtown Oakland. Read more
Wonderful new coffee shop! We enjoyed our almond milk lattee & drip coffee. Amazing pastries here. Lots of gluten free options... on top of a pretty amazing pastry rotation. House-made sourdough is some of the best in the Bay Area! Nice area for outdoorenjoyment as well. Read more
Perfect spot to drop in and grab a coffee to go. Quick and friendly service as you'd expect, all staff I've encountered have... happily offered up some light chit-chat while you wait. No real inside seating but they have a cute patio on the side of thebuilding and some street-side seating as well. The weather wasn't really fit for outside seating most of the times Ivisited. Coffee has always been real good, quality beans and well prepared milk options. Read more
