"This bar and music venue in Uptown has the best greyhounds in Oakland. On weekends or nights when bands are playing (there’s sometimes a small cover), you may have to shuffle your way through the crowded bar area to get one, but it’s worth it - they’re refreshing yet stiff and made with hand-squeezed grapefruit juice. And while you’re waiting to get the bartender’s attention, stare up at the tall cubby shelves that are behind the bar - the dusty baby doll heads, painted portraits, and other dusty found objects will make you feel like you’ve stumbled upon an eccentric person’s estate sale." - Lani Conway

"Our passion and mission is to make coffee grown and harvested by women easier to find. Women are the "backbone of the coffee supply chain" and are often underrepresented in this global economy. Cafenated Coffee is dedicated to sourcing and carefully roasting coffee from well-established women’s coffee farm cooperatives. We've also made it easy to select a roast profile you like by choosing one of four distinct roast profiles. It's coffee that is good and does good."
