Nomad Cafe
6500 Shattuck Ave., Oakland, CA
Crema's Take
“Nomad Cafe is a genuine neighborhood gem where the baristas actually remember your name and the hot lattes are legendarily creamy—paired with banana bread so generous it doubles as lunch. Beyond the coffee, their banh mi sandwiches showcase real craft, with each component perfectly balanced and bread that's clearly made with intention, all served by staff so genuinely warm they make you feel like a regular on your first visit.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Family friendly.
