March 4, 2025: Red Bay Coffee is BACK! When their lease came up, they left the Ferry Building but have Returned with the RED BAY Mobile Van which is in the parking lot by the Larkspur Ferry Gate! Thankful that I get my Cru Hot Chocolate and all the clever drinks that I love from this independent-Oakland based workforce training business.Alternative milks and pastries are now coming from this Mobile Van Tuesdays through Fridays and Sundays (Tues-Friday + Sundays)! Nice to sit outside on the benches or tables with the great Bay View!!!

One of my favorite coffee shops in the Ferry Building! Vibe is always right... friendly service, spacious seating options and delicious coffee.I've been here several times and have to say although I enjoy a straight up black coffee, with no cream/sugar, I've dabbled in their espresso options and highly enjoy the Africano, a fun departure from the Americano.

Vegan / Veg / Vegetarian review:1. Charcoal Coffee with Oatmilk (5/5): Loved it! My favorite. Was good with almond / oat milk2. Sesame Coffee with Oatmilk (4.5/5): Loved this as well. Ask them to blend it really really well.3. Rose Coffee (4/5): Not good hot, better cold. Needed more rose syrup, and get it with less milk.4. OatMilk Mocha (2/5): (take away already bottled) based on the barista's recommendation. It was not good, low on calories but not tasty. Worth trying if you're vegan and want something on the go.The drinks are seasonal (or just change often? with no seasonality?)I really wish they had vegan croissants though :)

It was a chilly day down by the water so we decided to stop by Red Bay to grab a coffee! I am typically a plain coffee drinker and rarely enjoy lattes as I cannot stand milk but their charcoal latte always hits the spot!It has just enough charcoal taste to work and it is delicious! Served quickly and piping hot - it was just the perfect cup to empty while watching the bay and world go by !

One of at least two Coffee spots in the Ferry Building. We like to come here when we are in the Ferry Building because of the nice space and they have some yummy cookies. Service friendly. This is by an actual ferry terminal, so it can get busy.Located inside the Ferry Building.

This is very much so overdue. When Red Bay moved to the Ferry Building during covid, I never hear of the brand and then I tasted their coffee and it was love at the first sip and I mean it. I do not drink any other coffee right now, I started to order them on line when I brew at home and they are my favorite. If I am meeting a friend/date, it will be meeting at Red Bay coffee you best believe it. I love the space and what they did it with it, how open it is and welcoming and the coffee is delicious, simple as that. CC accepted.Non dairy milks - almond and oat.

Tried their famous charcoal latte. Drink itself was fine and tasty. Service here was a huge miss. Folks who took my order were more interested in chatting with each other and made it seem like I interrupted their convo by ordering. Zero greetings or pleasantries or welcoming. I asked if they had any food/pastries left, which merited the most unfriendly response back. To be fair, the barista who made my drink was very nice.

I ordered their holiday drink. It was delish, not super sweet. I also ordered their brownie. The flavor and center were flavorful. The edges were hard. There was a short line to order. Our drinks came out pretty quickly. We sat inside, there is chair and table seating inside and outside. They also have a small bar table sitting looking out to the bay.

5/5 for their candied yam latte! Always a +1 when there is no additional cost for non-dairy milks! There's usually a line at most places in the ferry building and Red Bay Coffee is the same. The line moves relatively quickly. They also had an iPad that you could order from while in line but the system seemed confusing...I would suggest perhaps having the iPad as a separate line.

I was debating between Blue Bottle and Red Bay. And ended up picking Red Bay bc my spouse picked up Blue Bottle. There's a kiosk where you can order from or wait for the barista. I opted to wait in line and wished I had used the kiosk.I chose this spot bc I wanted to try the Charcoal Latte and it did not disappoint. The flavor was actually pretty good. The only thing I wished was the espresso flavor to be stronger. My husband ordered the NoLo from Blue Bottle and that one had an actual stronger coffee flavor. If I am ever in the area I would love to try their candied yam latte.
