Third Culture Bakery Berkeley
2701 Eighth St, Berkeley, CA
Crema's Take
“This Berkeley gem specializes in hand-crafted matcha beverages with a rich, roasted depth that locals are raving about, paired with impossibly fluffy mochi muffins and donuts in creative flavors like Ube Coconut and Mango Passionfruit. The small, welcoming space has a wonderful vibe where you can watch baristas prepare your matcha drink fresh at the counter, making it as much about the experience as it is about the exceptional pastries. It's the kind of spot that becomes an instant favorite—approachable, family-friendly, and doing one thing exceptionally well.”

Yummy yummy mochi donuts and muffins! If you’re craving them, then check Third Culture out! So may to choose from. They were all sooooo. Soooo goood! We got the sesame coffee latte to match! I definitely highly recommend them when you’re in the area!!
