SoDoI Coffee Tasting House

I got the chai with a shot of espresso for my first time visit at SoDol, and the coffee tasted so rich and amazing!The interior is very interesting and fun! Lots of space to do work. Service was ok!

I have been here twice now and the seasonal selection is very intriguing, especially if you like specialty drinks on the sweeter side. The Salted Caramel Pumpkin Latte and the Chocolate Covered Strawberry Mocha are both unique and delicious. For the Salted Caramel Pumpkin Latte, it is more caramel heavy rather than pumpkin heavy so if you want more of a pumpkin flavor, probably shoot for the pumpkin pie latte. The first initial sips of the Chocolate Covered Strawberry tastes like an actually Chocolate Covered Strawberry, but from that point on, each sip just got sweeter and sweeter. I will say to have a straw or mixing stick so the sweetness is spread throughout the entire drink and you don't end up with a sugar bomb at the end of the drink. That being, if you got a sweet tooth, these sure hit it.Inside, there's a lot of seating to study and do work, however, both times I've been here, it's pretty packed even with its 30+ seats, so I guess it's just the place to be.Service is friendly and they are nonstop making drinks.Overall, satisfy your sweet tooth with these drinks!

A popular café among Berkeley students so it does get pretty busy on certain days at certain hours. I usually get their iced vanilla latte which is really good but I got their iced matcha latte and it was pretty disappointing. It didn't taste anything like matcha and was basically milk with sweetener with its pale green color :( Their red velvet latte is a pretty solid option if you're looking for a sweeter drink!

Better late than never! I found this fascinating coffee shop when the nearest public restroom was out of order a few months ago. I was surprised the barista let me and my friend use their restroom without questioning us or forcing us to purchase a coffee before using it. What a relief! I decided to try their Chaggacino since no other coffee shop ever served it in my life. It was creamy with oat milk, less mushroom taste, more of a sweet coffee latte. I feel a little smarter after that lol. Their decor is like studying in a theater set of a nautical scene with a working piano and a mural of famous activists. I could film a mini skit of activists as Pirates of the Caribbean. Maybe I'm experiencing a side effect of drinking the mushroom chaga latte.

Hands down my favorite in Berkeley!!Drink - 5/5- Go-to drink: Iced Hazelnut Latte (+ Oat Milk) Vibe - 5/5- I've visited Sodoi multiple times around 9am to step out from WFH. (Very busy by 11am!)- The music here is a vibe - Love that they play Niki here! - Aesthetics: Dark tone walls with murals and spotlight lighting. Feels like you're in an art gallery. Plenty of seats, too!- Plus, super clean and spacious bathroomCustomer Service - 5/5- Kind employees. One barista delivered drink to my table.

The salted ice caramel pumpkin latte is delishhh!! I also love their iced vanilla latte.

SoDoI is spacious coffee place with a lot of seating and huge tables, definitely great to come and study. The French toast iced coffee was good and in the sweet side so if you like the strong coffee flavor I recline to ask it for less sweater. The baristas here were really nice and helpful with deciding what to get and they were very welcoming. If you're in the Berkeley area I definitely recommend checking this place out.

Cool coffee shop with plenty of space for to do work/study. We were looking for caffeine to take to our drive home and this was on our way back to our parking. They had some interesting coffee options like mushroom coffee and chocolate covered strawberry mocha. The staff was friendly, the coffee was delicious, and the painting of the man with a surf board in the bathroom did scare me

The staff was very friendly and informative and gave me good insight on what to get. The space is lovely and lively and I can tell a lot of people spend time there! I wish the drinks weren't so expensive but that's life, but that's my only complaint.

A great coffee shop in Berkeley with a great atmosphere to study in. Tucked away in a small alleyway near campus, the cafe offers a variety of drinks and spaces for students to study. It has many outlets and free Wi-Fi, which is very convenient for students who want a change of scenery from campus. I usually order their Strawberry Matcha Latte or their Chai Latte with an added expresso shot. Their Strawberry Matcha Latte has a very creamy texture and their strawberry puree is very sweet. I definitely recommend cutting on the sugar level if you like to taste more of the matcha. Their Chai Latte is by far the best I had in Berkeley. My friends and I always watch them steep the tea per order and it is simply amazing. Sometimes I liked to add an expresso shot for an extra caffeine boost and it never fails me.
