Oaklandia Cafe x Bakery
555 12th St #101, Oakland, CA
Crema's Take
“Oaklandia Cafe X Bakery is a spacious, laptop-friendly refuge that goes beyond the typical coffee shop experience with standout specialty drinks like lavender tea lemonade and a thoughtfully curated menu featuring everything from spinach and egg scrambles to an Oak Caesar Salad. The calm, welcoming vibe makes it equally suited for solo work sessions or lingering catch-ups with friends, though service consistency could use some polish. It's the kind of neighborhood spot Oakland needed—generous in its seating, generous in its options, and genuinely committed to being more than just another caffeine pit stop.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu.

I'm always looking for places to work on my laptop that aren't Starbucks, and Oakland is ripe with cafes. This one was on my list for a long time and did not disappoint. I had the spinach, egg, and cheese sandwich on a croissant. The cashier was an absolute delight and asked me…
