Crema's Take
“Tucked inside UC Berkeley's International House, this espresso-focused cafe punches above its weight with consistently excellent drinks that even Australian coffee snobs approve of, all served by genuinely friendly staff in a clean, welcoming space. Beyond the solid specialty drinks and traditional espresso, they've carved out a loyal following with unique pastries like their "Third Culture" Chocolate Mochi donuts and a commitment to sustainability through Too Good to Go partnerships. It's the kind of hidden gem that works equally well for a quick caffeine fix, a meeting with friends, or settling in with your laptop for a few hours.”

This is my go to spot in Berkeley. The staff are really friendly, the place clean and always a good vibe and the coffee is consistently good! As an Aussie we are pretty big coffee snobs and I haven't been disappointed here. Grab their Iced Vanilla Latte while you're here!
Good drinks and pastries for a cafe on campus. They also make leftover pastries available on Too Good to Go which I love and have picked up a couple times. Look out on their social media for deals
Service was super fast and the drink is amazing.
Edmonds Café at UC Berkeley’s International House is a true hidden gem, offering a fantastic selection of fresh, delicious food in a welcoming atmosphere. Whether you’re a student, faculty, or just visiting, this café is the perfect spot to grab a quick bite or relax with a coffee. Their bagels are a must-try, perfectly toasted and paired with a fluffy, rich cream cheese spread that melts in your mouth. For those with dietary preferences, they offer Third Culture gluten-free pastries, which are just as delicious as their traditional counterparts. The buttery, flaky croissants are another highlight, alongside their fresh sandwiches, pizzas, and more. The café provides a cozy, inviting space with friendly service and a great selection of high-quality food. Whether you’re stopping by for breakfast, lunch, or a snack between classes, Edmonds Café is a go-to spot that never disappoints!
Edmunds is an awesome spot to grab a quick snack or lunch. Big fan of their "Third Culture" Chocolate Mochi donuts, pretzels and Chipotle Turkey sandwich. The staff is always friendly and welcoming when I come in on my breaks
