1888 Coffee Station - Oakland

Worst cold brew coffee I've ever had. Utterly disgusting. Barista obviously didn't want to be there. Homeless people bothering you while standing in line. Absolute trainwreck of a morning coffee experience. DO NOT GOFood: 1/5

The vegan scramble is just a pile of veggies, and it comes with sour creamFood: 2/5

Excellent Customer Service!!!! Delicious coffee and exquisite menu options. Employees are kind/friendly and knowledgeable in coffee and baked goods!!Better than Starbucks and Pete’s and beats out its competitors and great local coffee shop for Grand Lake/Adams Point!!!Will definitely be back for more HOT or COLD delicious liquid goo (known as coffee). (Yes, they have other drinks too. Haven’t tried yet. Gives me something to look fowards too!)Favorite items currently: Donuts ?, chocolate Croissants and ALL Latte’s!!!(They’re all delish)Rating: Too low for 5 Stars!!!Needs to be 10,000 Thousand Stars!!

I ordered coffee for me and my fiancee that took so long to get! Our orders were simple and the barista took long getting our orders. We had noticed a pattern. After we had ordered, there was a short line behind us. Right behind us was an African American guy and after were white people. The barista and everyone else in the place served the white people right away before us. I had looked at the guy with an awkward look, and so did he with me. Eventually my fiancee asked the lady about my coffee, at this point 15mins had gone by. The lady then reached right behind the coffee machine to grab my coffee. It was so odd because I saw her put my coffee there 5mins after I placed my order. The coffee tasted horrible. Wasn't what I ordered. And prior to that, a man came by with his kids and the barista immediately made their drinks. I'd say atleast 1min after they got their orders. Not sure if it was a race thing, but it felt racist. I thought I was overthinking it, until I saw the other guys expression and what my fiancée had told me after. Also they messed up her order as well. Shame, it's a cute hole-in-the-wall place. But people need to stop choosing favorites, especially race.

Great batista today but the coffee was okay, just a step up from Starbucks or petes
