Oakland, CA 94610
Our Oakland coffee bar is located near picturesque Lake Merritt. This cafe inside a recycled shipping container is urban and industrial, with a soft edge thanks to the beautiful succulents tucked into every corner of the site. Drop in for an espresso when you're in the neighborhood, or grab a can of cold coffee to bring to the lake. The single origin coffees change monthly and we have lots of fresh roasted whole been coffee for sale, so we are sure to have what you like. Bring your friendly dog for a pit stop while lapping the lake, they're sure to make a friend. Enjoy sweet and savory pastries, grab-and-go salads, hot quiche and muddled fruit sodas. We also have Vegan Doughnuts on the weekends, and at Equator the weekend starts Friday.

Yum! We came here after a trip to Children's Fairyland about two long blocks away. I really enjoyed my strawberry matcha with 2% milk. The strawberry was in the foam, and my drink was very good...

This place is just alright. I come here because they're open earlier than some other shops. They have outdoor seating, but if it's the cold morning, they have overhead heaters on. There's not...
