Romo’s Cafe - Oakland

This is Gem and 5 star cafe.Amazing service, vibe, coffee and food.The outdoor area is amazing! This is a humble place if anyone wants to relax and enjoy coffee.I found my coffee place in Hayward.

Their strawberry banana crepe was super yummy. My friend had chia bowl and she enjoyed it too. We ate in the patio and I really enjoyed the atmosphere. I was so happy to discover this place.

The cutest place you would never realize was there!!! We popped by one morning for a quick bite and we’re not disappointed. Got the avocado toast, chia bowl, a latte and their coffee. Everything was SO good and the fruit was super fresh and deliciousFood: 5/5

Came here for brunch, ended up getting my food at lunch.Looking through the reviews I don’t understand how more people aren’t talking about the unreasonable wait or service. It took about an hour to get our food and during that time we saw multiple people served before us, a family ask for a refund due to the wait, and generally service that seemed discombobulated.When we first arrived and it was our turn to order we asked for a bit more time to review the menu. After a minute (at the most) we stepped forward to place our order but the same lady seemed to ignore us and we had to wait a few minutes for someone else to notice us. In Spanish this second lady asked the first if we had already placed our order to which the first responded that she waited but we were taking our time (guess she didn’t think we understood). After we had paid they told us it might take a bit longer due to a few parties that were there before us. What they didn’t warn us about was the number of ppl that would arrive after us and receive their food first, or that generally our party was not going to be prioritized like when we asked twice for water but during that time multiple parties placed received their complex drink orders.This place has a lot going for it since it’s a local shop with a nice environment and food, but the service made the experience so bad I won’t be coming back.

Such a gem!! You must try the cafe de olla along with the chia pudding- amazing! We inhaled the baguette sandwiches so you already know those were so good. I loved the outside seating area where you can soak up the sun and slow down while you enjoy some delicious food. We will need to stop here every time we’re in the area. The owner is the sweetest and will check in to see if you’re fully enjoying your meal cafécito
