Crazy Mocha Coffee Co

Their cold brew is some of the best I have ever had. Coffee was smooth and had some amazing chocolate undertones

Decent espresso drinks. Generally better than Starbucks. Afternoon staff could use a little more training in steaming milk to improve texture cohesion and avoid large bubbles. Pricing is somewhat high, but to be expected given the location.

Crazy Mocha is a great study spot. More outlets than Starbucks or other competitive coffee shops. Also, the coffee is definitely better. It isn't burnt to garbage every time. Also, the food options are decent as well. The only reason I couldn't give 5 stars is because I've been in other Crazy Mochas with much better interiors.

One of the best kept secrets in Oakland. Most people skip right over Crazy Mocha in favor of Starbucks or one of the campus coffee places but this is a gem and a great local chain that serves a lot of regulars. Great coffee and always friendly staff. Not much seating room but, like I said, it's a well kept secret so it usually doesn't fill up too much. And there are plenty of outlets so it's a great place to do work.
