Crema's Take

Powderface brings a relaxed, community-focused vibe to Oakland's Fruitvale neighborhood, with inviting indoor and outdoor seating that's perfect for lingering over breakfast and coffee. Their standout offerings include French-style made-to-order crepes, specialty drinks like Mexican spiced hot chocolate and matcha lattes, plus an impressive array of pastries and light fare that keeps the morning crowd happy. Just a heads up that service can be inconsistent and they close at 5pm sharp, so arrive with time to spare and bring cash.

Great place to sit, have breakfast and enjoy the local community. My green tea latte was delicious and my morning crepe was fresh.

Closed at 3:45 p.m. today and refused service from me and a few others even though hours are until 5pm. Door was open and actively told us to get out and put a chair in front of the door. Weird but will be going to get beignets elsewhere!

The food here is good . I just wish the customer service was better . I arrived to their location 15 minutes before closing . I ordered a box of beignet and the cashier stated that she was going to make my order but that next time I should be jere 15 minutes before closing . I understand everyone wanting to go home but it was an unnecessary answer . If she did not want to do the order she could have just simply said no .

Good cafe near Fruitvale Bart. They have many pastry/dessert options including French style crepes made to order and all the standard coffee drinks. They have indoor and outdoor seating but there are always people lurking around and parking can be tough around FV Bart.

Mexican spiced hot chocolate was good. Got a breakfast sandwich with spinach and tomato. Was falling apart a bit but otherwise good. Staff were very friendly. Bring cash.
