Powderface

Excellent beignets and excellent customer service. I arrived early to pick up an order and they were able to accommodate me and did so with a smile. I did not sample any of the other baked goods, but they looked GOOD, especially the coffee cake. Thank you! I will be back!!

Id been trying to get here solely for their beignets. If you've been to NOLA and spent time at Cafe Dumonde,you'll be hard pressed to find something as good.This places comes close. They make it when you order so it is fresh and like at Cafe Dumonde you'll be bathed in powdered sugar when you eat. I also ordered anl Mexican spice coffee. Very good.Service is excellent and the line moves fast. Definitely have some regulars, commuters and have their regular customers orders down. Their crepes looked great so I'll be back to try those. Another local small business to support.

I LOVE Powderface's coffee! The beignets are fine (actually, kinda bland TBH, and the sauces seem "cheap" like the caramel is not real butter caramel)But they have the absolute BEST coffee cakes ! I wish their pastries had signs so people could know wtf they are. lolThe service is always fine. The location is a stone's throw away from me, so I'm biased on the sense that I can walk there in 2 mins, so I obviously appreciate that...especially due to the fact that it's gotta be difficult dealing with some of the patrons around this area.Due to that fact alone, I appreciate them for being here and staying open. (Especially due to the difficulties of owning a small business and especially in Oakland, where city leaders are some of the worst. Not to get political, but it's true.)The ambiance in the place is a typical cafe. It's got plenty of outdoor and indoor seating, which is great!

Had been wanting to try this place for a long time. Honestly. Pretty good. I will say, eat as soon as you get them. They're not good later. They get a little soggy. Service was just so-so. Coffee was just so-so. But yeah, the beignets are great as long as you eat right then and there.

Staff is friendly and welcoming. Food was good as always. Have been coming here for over 10 years and this place never disappoints.

I love it here. A cute little coffee shop that serves the best beignets! The prices are reasonable and the staff is friendly

Service was good and Vietnamese coffee was even better! Hella strong but kinda pricey....

I was so disappointed with the experience I had today. 3 people who came in after me got their orders before me and 2 of them ordered the same thing. When I pointed this out to the lady she tried to argue with me. I said I'm not going to argue and I hope you have a wonderful day. I got to my bus and opened my sandwich to find that the croissant was burnt. Bad service and a burnt sandwich for $10. Soooo not worth it. Never again

This is one of the few spots around that serves beignets!They are fairly cheap too. You can order three beignets for $5. They go great with a cup of coffee. This place could probably use a touch-up. The presentation is a little lacking. However, the service is decent and the crepes are delicious, so I keep coming back. Two items to try:(1) The jalapeno bagels. They are delish. Load it up with egg and bacon and cheese. You won't be hungry for a longtime after that.(2) The smoothies. They are better than Jamba Juice. Made fresh with good quality ingredients.The area is a little dicey. So please be safe.

The service was prompt. The mocha was excellent and I'm very picky with my mochas and it's very good. I highly suggest coming here and the inside is cute. Lots of seating.
