The White Whale Room

Was passing through and wanted to try out the coffee shop. It's tucked in the corner next to the Alameda light rail station so there's a huge convenience factor. The decor is interesting with the copper bar stools being not the most comfortable, and the other tall chairs looking skeletal and-ironically- not for boney butts. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The turkey burrito was freshly made and delicious. My vanilla latte was on the sweeter side. Price is slightly high but not a deal breaker for the quality I got. Definitely worth a try!

I gave it a three because I had not ever been inside, it had looked quite busy, all the times I had passed by before. I wanted to go watch open mic night for comedians and they had recently sold the venue and closed. There was a note about where they were headed.

I have come here a few time since July and have had a great experience every time. The first time was with the owner and he talked with me for over an hour. The next few times were just for coffee and the bartenders/baristas have been great. And the most recent was with Erin and Conner who were both very helpful and friendly. They made it feel relaxed and like a place I could come back to to have a few drinks and a good time.

What a cool spot for coffee or happy hour! Yes, you can have your morning caffeine fix here and then come back later to share happy hour with friends. So close to lite rail station at Alameda, you can jump off, get something to go and get right back on lit rail to you final destination. If I were a commuter, I would make this my daily stop. A really cool interior design. Great place to hang out and work and just chill.

Love the breakfast burritos! They are not your typical run of the mill burritos. The decor is really fresh and interesting and it's in great location next to the light rail. The only down side I experienced was that their cold brew is too acidic for my liking. But their other beverages are great!

I was in today for an early Mother's Day treat. This place is so different and I absolutely love the environment! They had a dj spinning which was really fun. We ordered a variety of things to share and nothing lasted very long it was so good. The menu is simple and everything was really fresh. This is an awesome place to grab a coffee or a cocktail or coffee in a cocktail! The lightrail literally stops out front so you don't have to worry about a dd if you want to have a couple of drinks!

Great place to stop at the Alameda train station. They have excellent coffee and good wi-fi. The decor is really cool, and the outdoor seating is made from large curvy slabs cut from trees. Breakfast snack selection was not awesome, but there were some things available.

Made me feel as if I were on vacation in New York or San Francisco... I'm looking out at people coming off the light rail; best people-watching ever... The decor: Moby Dick meets modern art. The food is excellent and the coffee faithfully made. Funky AND elegant.
