Proyecto Diaz Coffee
2201 Broadway, Oakland, CA
Crema's Take
“Tucked away in West Oakland next to Pacific Pipe climbing gym, Proyecto Diaz is a hidden gem that takes its craft seriously with thoughtfully sourced single-origin beans and a meticulous approach to espresso and pour-over brewing. The café strikes that rare balance between being a focused coffee destination and a genuinely welcoming gathering space, with plenty of indoor charm and a spacious outdoor patio perfect for lingering whether you're working, meeting friends, or fueling up before a climb. Skip the iced drinks and lean into their hot preparations—reviewers rave about the quality of the beans and the care poured into each cup.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Parking available.
