Coffee Cultures - Alameda

It just IS the best coffee in Alameda. Period. It doesn't matter what I order, the coffee is superior. Note to parents: there is no changing table and I feel like the atmosphere is a bit unfriendly to young children- the couple times I've taken my son inside only one barista seems to be un-annoyed by him despite his excellent manners (which I considered taking a star off for because let's be real... who on earth needs coffee more than parents?! But I decided against it, because again... the coffee is just so good)

This is by far my favorite coffee shop. This is my go to place for studying and sipping on drinks. I have come here on multiple occasions to do work and drink a matcha lavender (my favorite drink from them). There is a lot of nice outdoor seating. The servers are nice and always answer my questions when I'm interested in trying a new drink. Their soft serve they make in house is also delicious!

Loved the vanilla latter. There's some sort of spice in it that I personally love! Perfectly balanced and a beautiful coffee taste. Would recommend and dog friendly so extra props! Quick service. The hubby wanted a pour over but it was close to an hour before they closed and they couldn't do it so head up to go earlier if you want a pour over.

The drip coffee was bold and had good flavor. My wife liked her matcha latte. We also had an Ube Mochi cake which was amazing. The staff were friendly and quick. I’ll be coming back here.

Cute corner shop with yummy coffee! There isn't any designated parking area so you would need to find spots on the street. Service was quick, got our drink within 2 minutes of ordering. Also got a bag of decaf beans for home which they grinded for us (upon request). Would come again when I'm in the area!
