Great study spot (not too crowded and lots of outlets). Drinks a solid 9/10, chicken pesto panini 7/10

This charming café is a hidden gem. It's the ideal spot to grab a treat and a coffee before heading over to the park

I loved the vibes, it was a great spot to study at with great natural lighting. there's a great variety of drink and food options to choose from to keep you full and satisfied to work hard! friendly staff also contributed to the good experience. would recommend!!

Stopped in once on a drive on a weekend. Nice selection of pastries that are not all the "usual" which I appreciated. The chocolate macaroon cookie was a nice size and so welcome. Yummy!

I decided to stop by while I was in Emeryville and ordered a passionfruit black tea for pickup. Service was quick and friendly. It was fruity, not too sweet, so I liked it since it does taste like a good balance between the bitter taste of tea and tropical fruit flavor. I saw the cafe also has outdoor seating.

I love this cafe and have watched it grow over the years to include a wine bar now! Pros: have yummy house made fruit scones that I highly recommend. The staff is friendly and will make lovely little shapes onto cappuccinos. They have: a small wine bar, pastries, food, drinks, TV, a quiet space, lots of seating indoor and outdoor and a clean atmosphere. Con: they need to descale their espresso machines more often so the cappuccinos can taste as good as they look Overall, great date, meetup or work cafe for a couple of hours!

Stopped by mid morning. No wait. Friendly staff. I ordered a chai latte and it was delicious. Plenty of seating inside and outside. Street parking available.

Black Diamond Cafe is a hybrid cafe/eatery in a commercial space behind the Public Market. Parking on streets or in garbage close by. Many tables inside with several tables outside. Serviced within minutes. Food/drink came in minutes. Offerings: bagels, craft beers, sandwiches, pastries, wraps, pannins, salads, specials, wings, hot/cold drinks. Sips: columbia house brand coffee pourover (4.25) -straight black sans sugar. Semi-bold, slightly harsh. Arabica beans? Profile smoother after awhile. Bites: everything/whole wheat bagels (3.75) -sliced, no spread. Eating it later @home.,trying out new bagels. Commercial ones too sweet. -the whole wheat tasted better, both not too sweet 4 stars worth repeating when other options appear. Associates cordial, customer friendly. Can customize reasonable requests.

I've passed by the cafe a few times but finally went in today - sure glad I did! A friend and I swing by did a quick coffee and bite while I charged my car at the public market Super chargers nearby. Parking is available on the street or nearby at the public market. There is indoor and outside seating. You pay at the counter and they give you a number, you collect your drinks at the counter but they deliver the food to your table when it's ready. The service was nice, fast and helpful. I got the challah French toast and an egg on the side, I was pleasantly surprised by the almonds and fruit on the plate - it all tasted great. My almond milk bb latte came with cute latte art which was also a nice surprise. My friend had a chagachino - these are apparently all the craze lately. She enjoyed it; tasted like a mocha! Available hot or cold. Definitely will be back soon to try a tea, I'm over due for some boba!

I am in love - this was exactly the kind of cafe I was looking for! During the weekdays, Black Diamond is one of the rare cafe's that close around 9pm - what's more they serve breakfast sandwiches all day and some more hot food that is perfect for a quick dinner!! What really sets them apart besides all the great menu offerings and lenient hours, is the atomsphere and space's conduciveness to working/ studying. Wifi is a given, and there are plentiful outlets and tables available for everyone! Furthermore, the restrooms are very big and clean, which is always a plus :) I had the Taro Latte (yum) and Red Thai Chicken Curry (wolfed it down) which was just perfect for my evening where I wanted to get some work done. Only downside (to no one's fault) is that I don't live in this neighborhood lol.
