Ultimate Grounds Et Al, Oakland CA

Love, love, love Ultimate Grounds! It's my neighborhood, family owned cafe, and a cozy spot for lunch in their lovely garden patio in the back. The staff are always sweetly courteous and friendly. The menu offers a variety of light breakfast and lunch options in addition to espresso drinks. Imo, they make the perfect BLT. Highly recommend it for a quick bite and coffee.

Lovely staff and great service in this neighborhood gem of a coffee shop. I love the iced chai lattes, my kids love the grilled ham and cheese on a croissant

I recently discovered this gem of a coffee shop in Glenview run by a Cambodian family. From their simple yet scrumptious breakfast options to their pocket-friendly prices, it's a brilliant way to start your day. The expedient service adds to the delightful experience. Highly recommend!

Love this spots egg salad sandwiches! Their chai latte is delicious as well. The owner is so friendly and makes this spot feel welcoming and warm!

Really good sandwiches and coffee. My friend and I were comfortable catching up for hours and eating well. Very welcoming and calm atmosphere!

Love this cafe in the neighborhood. Came here a few times for tea, coffee and breakfast. A few tables by the street, pretty spacious inside and a backyard with two round tables and a long one.

A coffee, milk and a ham egg cheese croissant totals $15.40.

We love them. Best bacon, egg and cheese in the Bay area according to my kids. Excellent coffee. They nail the basics and price reasonably.

Cozy. Good selection of drinks and food. No frills. Locally and family owned. Wifi. Great place to get some work done and enjoy a not overpriced meal or drink.

Consistent, clean, friendly, good quality! Mom/pop shop with lots of seating, plus a couple tables in the back area outside.owner recognizes me and knows my drink! Always a pleasure eating here.

The coffee and the food are both very good.

I ordered a white chocolate mocha, and the espresso had a great flavor.
I also ordered a breakfast sandwich with egg and bacon, which was cooked well and tasted amazing.
Lastly, the chocolate macaroon was delicious!

I recommend going here.

Great locally owned coffee shop! Nothing is earth shatteringly amazing other than their baked goods, but all is very tasty, fresh, and consistently high quality.

This place is worth supporting and runs laps around Peet's and the like.

Great cafe! Food and customer service is perfect, only downside is at times it can be hard to find seating because it’s a small place.

I absolutely love this place! The staff is so kind and friendly. Reasonable prices and quick service.

Super friendly local coffee shop! They serve Mr. Espresso coffee beans and have decent pastries and good simple breakfast sandwiches.

I stop here pretty regularly. The couple who own the coffee shop are really service oriented and offer delicious edibles (not that kind, good lord, take a deep breath). They make an excellent cup of coffee or a latte or cappuccino. Their breakfast and lunch selection will appeal to just about anybody. One specialty item they carry is cubed watermelon. I don't know how they do it but they ALWAYS have the freshest and sweetest bites. They open at 7 am and like I often say "you can't go wrong with this place"

This place was a great place to meet a Facebook Marketplace buyer. The shop owner was kind, and he seemed to know his customer’s favorite snacks. I especially liked the Rice Krispies treats and the Super-8 movie camera I acquired.
