Good News Cafe
155 17th St, Oakland, CA
Crema's Take
“Good News Cafe is a beloved neighborhood hole-in-the-wall near Lake Merritt where regulars come for genuinely warm service and a surprisingly robust breakfast menu that goes beyond typical cafe fare. The vibe strikes that perfect balance between a quick grab-and-go spot and a place worth lingering in, with cappuccinos and breakfast sandwiches that actually deliver, plus smoothies and light bites that keep people coming back for more.”

always the nicest crowd & nice employees too! i love coming there for a casual bite.
DO NOT GO THERE YOU WILL GET SCAMMMED!!!!!! if I could give them zero stars i would. I ordered two sandwiches that were $7.95 each bacon egg cheese and sausage. the guy working there charged me $20 for 2 sandwiches i asked for a receipt and saw that he had charged me $4 extra of meat which is ridiculous im expecting to pay $15.90 for 2 sandwhichs plus tax but instead im met with a pricing of over 20 bucks and to top it off he charged it as 2 totally different sandwiches that i had not ordered. I go and tell the guy and he tries to play it off saying its extra for the meat when it clearly says on the window how much a sandwich is. these guys are trying to scam people without them realizing it by adding 2x meat at $2.00 and ringing up different sandwiches that you arent ordering. DO NOT GO THERE UNLESS YOU WANT TO GET SCAMMED. and get this the guy said "its america" even more indication that they are aware of what they are doing SCAMMING PEOPLE!!
Small 'hole in the wall' but friendly and the breakfast and cappuccino got was yummy.
We found this place by chance and decided to stop for breakfast. The food was delicious, and there was a great variety to choose from. If we pass by again, we will definitely stop by!
Cute little cafe near lake meritt to enjoy a fresh morning coffee. It’s only take out.. they have a vast menu.. lots of breakfast and smoothie options to choose from. Will definitely keep coming!! I tried their veg sandwich and chocolate peanut butter smoothie. They were good!!
