Crema's Take

Thornhill Coffee House feels like the kind of neighborhood spot that genuinely cares, with owners so sweet they'll point you to the parking lot around back and a crew that remembers your usual order. Beyond the stellar traditional espresso drinks, they're winning people over with unexpected hits like refreshing green smoothies and breakfast bagels that keep regulars coming back, all served in a cozy, eclectic atmosphere that's equally welcoming whether you're settling in with a laptop or meeting a group of friends.

Ya'll, this place is great! Awesome coffee, great sandwiches and well-priced for the area. The staff are so welcoming and nice and accommodating. I will be returning here for regular coffee breaks in the future.

This place is the best! Huge menu, and incredibly sweet owners. They said the parking lot to the right of the cafe is okay to park in too for up to 1.5 hours, but I parked on the street which was easy to find on a Saturday afternoon. The patio is perfect, with one nicely shaded table and 3 in the sun, and the owners specified that it doesn’t close, so I continued to use the wifi studying past closing time. One note is they don’t take card, but do take venmo.

Kudos to the crew at Thornhill Cafe. Thank you for always taking good care of me. I love your green smoothies. They're refreshing and just make you feel good and your breakfast bagels are awesome. It's my favorite place to stop when I'm working in the hills of Oakland. Doesn't seem to matter how many people are in there. You still get us in and out in no time. You're the best!!

Thornhill Coffee House is an absolute gem! From the moment you walk through the door, you’re greeted by the warm and inviting aroma of freshly brewed coffee. The atmosphere is cozy and eclectic, perfect for a relaxed catch-up with friends or a productive work session. The baristas are incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about their craft. They take the time to recommend brews based on your preferences, and their espresso drinks are simply divine. I highly recommend trying their signature Thornhill latte, which strikes the perfect balance between rich espresso and velvety steamed milk, topped with a hint of sweetness. The selection of pastries is equally impressive. The almond croissant I enjoyed was flaky and buttery, making it the perfect complement to my coffee. They also offer a range of vegan and gluten-free options, ensuring that everyone can find something delicious. The community vibe is palpable here, with local art adorning the walls and frequent live music events adding to the charm. It’s clear that Thornhill Coffee House is not just about great coffee; it’s a space where connections are made and memories are created.
