Panama Bay Coffee

Sweet convenient little cafe right here in the heart of Kaiser 3701. Good grubs, fine tunes, nice peeps. Don't be shy now!!

Holy sh!t, white mocha was , cinnamon roll was beyond words, and chicken chipotle sandwich was amazing. Staff was great, and the ambience was that of a café. I wish we had one in Alameda, they would do amazing.

Cafe inside Kaiser at 3701 Broadway. Makes going to the medical center, pharmacy, or lab much more tolerable. Their sandwiches, drinks, smoothies, and baked goods are delicious. The people that work there are always very nice and welcoming and the drinks are made right away. It's a cute little shop at the back of the medical center with a nice display case for the food they sell. The chicken salad sandwich was delicious with little pieces of chopped apple inside. Yum! Highly recommend bringing your kids for a cookie or smoothie post lab work or shots.

Best pressed sandwiches and very sweet staff! They write nice messages on the coffee sleeves. It always makes my day!

Such a cute place. Absolutely amazing staff. So kind and cheerful! And the mango chai latte was great!! It's definitely a treat though because it's kinda pricey. I wouldn't come here daily haha

They have the absolute BEST CHICKEN SALAD SANDWICH. I drove 30 minutes just to get it. When I worked At Kaiser this was my go to for lunch. This sandwich is bomb highly recommended. I also love the energy and happy smiles they serve up with their food as while. If you ever in the area go try this you won't regret it.

As another yelper, Molly G., has stated in her review dated o/a 7/21/2016, the Panama Bay Coffee Company is not closed. The business is more of a coffee and tea station than a bakery, serving hot and cold beverages, bakery items (croissants, cookies, danish pastries, breakfast sandwiches, hot and cold sandwiches). Location: 3701 Broadway, at the end of of the corridor of the main entrance to Kaiser/Permanente. Upon entering the hospital, walk pass the pharmacy and small library of information on the left side of the corridor. Apparently, there is some misinformation from other yelpers that they are not in business. I do have proof that Panama Bay Coffee Company is opened during the day (morning and afternoon). They may be closed in the evening.My husband and I have stopped at this station all of last week, Monday through Friday, to purchase latte with three shots of expresso, croissant, ham 'n cheese croissant, danish pastries, turkey sandwich and bottled water.I have to be in this hospital for my visits to the Radiology/Oncology Department for medical treatment five days a week. Before receiving my treatment, we stop by to say hello to the employees and purchase something for breakfast.The station is basically an order to go, as there are no tables and chairs for dining on the premises. However, there is a sandwich board across from the business advertising their hot sandwiches. Coffee credenza has sugar, creamer, stir sticks, napkins, etc. Cart has coffee mugs, snacks, cereal bars, mason jars filled with teas. Display case is filled with baked items, cookies, fruit parfait, cold sandwiches, turkey wrap, etc. (Credenza needs cleaning...sticky residue of coffee on the counter.)Customer service: friendly and pleasant employees who aim to please the customers.Hospitals can be a little depressing at times, but having a coffee/tea station with pleasant employees serving people is a welcome sight. Thank goodness the Panama Bay Coffee Company is there; otherwise, we would have to go elsewhere (Oakland Medical Building or the Fabiola Building) to get something to eat and drink.

The food and services are superior. Baked goods are freshly baked every day. Delicious sandwiches. Generous portions. Friendly service. I go out of my way to stop at that Kaiser's lobby to buy food there. My favorites: banana walnut bread or muffins. You will thank me!

The food is very tasty. The service is very friendly. I plan my lab work so I can go there. I recommend it!

This sweet, small coffee shop is a gem in all of Oakland and makes my constant trips to Kaiser more tolerable. The amazing individuals that run it are absolute angels and put out some of the tastiest coffee and delicious bites anywhere in Oakland. My 7 yr old son accidentally lost his favorite hat when we were at the pharmacy this past week. It was a huge catastrophe as you can imagine. They had been so engaging, made him feel like a rock star & authentically, preciously interacted with him while we were getting him one of their melt in your mouth croissants! It made his whole day! They were playing, exchanging hats and just being the kindest, most beautiful people ever. We went back to look for it once we realized it was lost, but we should have checked in with the angels at Panama. At the end of their long, hard working day, they recognized his hat sitting there lonely on a chair. They swept it up and saved it for me as they see me there often. I came back the next day for my 3rd appt at Kaiser this week, AND THEY SHOWED ME THE HAT! I broke down into tears! Their thoughtful, altruistic, small act of human kindness absolutely melted my heart! This is a special local business that deserves loads of support & HUGE TIPS! Remember to support small businesses, and that small acts of kindness can completely change someone's whole day. We all need a little bit more love these days. Thank you to my sweet angels at Panama!
