Sidecar
Oakland
What we liked: great selection of cheap pastries, atmosphere, seating
What we didn't like: small drink sizes for the price
Sidecar Coffee and Bake Shop on North Craig St is a small local coffee shop with playful and comforting decor. The best part of this shop is the aroma coming from the kitchen and the great selection of rotating pastries and cakes; including: toffee scones, chocolate cherry cheesecake, moss cake, vinegar pie (claims to be similar to pecan pie), cookies and cream creme pie, cinnamon rolls and a great selection of breakfast sandwiches. The highlights from the drink menu include the princess cold brew made with sweetened condensed milk and the house made oatmilk! Also a great drink selection of non coffee drinkers including teas, yerba matte, and blueberry and creme sodas from nearby local businesses.
