Ordered from the kiosk. Pandan latte is not too sweet! Loved the pandan taste because it was not too strong.

I'm always on the hunt for a new matcha spot! Having the day off, I suggested to my companion we come here to try a new spot and walk the pup. The cafe is quite small and located in a plaza. You can order online or inside on their tablet. The ambiance is super casual and decor pretty minimal. There's a decent amount of indoor seating plus WiFi available. I found the service to be fast considering I was one of the only customers. If you know me, I am obsessed with pandan. I had to try their Iced Pandan Matcha Latte with Soy Milk. I got a regular size but they have regular and large for their drinks. I also love their other drink offerings such as ube, fruits, and horchata. I would love to come back to try them. They also serve pastries and baked goods. My Pandan Matcha was good, very green and the Pandan taste present. Matcha wasn't strong and I could taste the soy milk more. Did the job though! Alameda folks, Coffee and Tea Traders is a nice addition that's different from your chain coffee shops. If I lived closer, I'd come back, especially to try their other drinks. They're also easy to locate in Harbor Bay Landing with ample free parking.

I recently came here during my lunch break for a sweet treat and the drink pics looked irresistible, plus the sun was out, so why not?! The other bonuses were it's only 5 min from work and it's a small business! Working on Bay Farm, there's very little of choices since most things are on Park. So, this was a gem to find! Everything is self-service, you don't even get a greeting. In fact, I barely noticed anyone behind the counter until she got up to make my drink, haha! So, I didn't tip because for what service? I digress. I ordered the ube horchata drink which looked like a smoothie in the picture, but it was iced. It was still delicious and not too sweet. The tables outside are nice to sit while enjoying your drink especially when it's warm out. They don't have restrooms, but instead have 2 doors marked for "employees only". I'm sure if they wanted to, they could turn one of them into a restroom. I tried to come again in the morning before work since their hours say they open at 7AM. I parked and waited 15 min; it still wasn't open. It was disappointing. AND they don't have a lot of hot options for matcha. I 100% would prefer to support small businesses over a Starbucks across the street, but when you have early workers and you don't follow your listed hours, it might be hard to compete. Lastly, if you are a person who doesn't want any kind of interaction during your transaction, this place is for you. Personally, service adds to the consumer experience, but at least the drinks are good. ‍

Came here on a Tuesday afternoon so I was able to quickly order. I was excited to discover that this place sold Asian flavored items, for some reason I wouldn't have expected it based on the name and outside of the shop. I got a Thai Iced Green Tea which the cashier was able to make really quickly. It tasted delicious and refreshing. Definitely want to come back to try other items on their menu. Inside was very clean and much larger than expected. Would be nice to read or work from. I always see people sitting outside which seems nice to be around the lagoons.

Was craving a sweet treat and stopped by a nearby coffee shop! I saw the matcha pandan and immediately ordered it. Although I loved the drink, the pandan definitely overpowered the matcha flavor. It was quite sweet and I personally would prefer it a little less sweet! Very delicious though! I think for the price it was quite good as well. Service was very quick--there's lots of parking too as Coffee & Tea Traders is located in a plaza.

Stopped in for a blue (pea flower) matcha coconut latte and almond croissant. Venue is in the shopping plaza with Safeway and a few other restaurants and a nail salon next door. They seem to have a creative coffee and tea menu that I'd like to try next time. My drink was an interesting flavor combo and prices are reasonable here. They have an online menu to order ahead too. Wifi is also available here, with seating inside and outside.

If you're in Alameda on Harbor Bay Isle looking for breakfast options to go, I highly recommend Coffee & Tea Traders. It is also a great place to have a meeting with coffee and pastries and sit outside. You can always catch a group of people relaxing and connecting over coffee with their pets. Their breakfast sandwiches are delicious and so is their coffee. Their customer service is awesome and can accommodate any substitutions. They're also are a small family business across the street from a Starbucks drive thru. This place is a much better option with more food selections. Only bad thing is they do not have a restroom which can be tricky when drinking coffee. There is a Safeway and nail shop very close where you can use the restroom.

Excellence!!! I suggest checking out their drink menu online before you pull up. They have a ton of delicious looking menu items!! I find the drink menu exceptional. Especially for those who love a variety of choices. I would try something new everyday. I wish I lived closer to this coffee shop! Support small businesses!

Solid coffee spot! We came here on an early Saturday morning, so it was quiet and peaceful. This was my first time in the area and I loved the beach town/coastal vibes. There are tables and chairs inside and outside the shop. The back door leads to the harbor/dock, which has a magnificent view. I loooove Vietnamese coffee and this place offers a variety of options. I got the Ube Iced Latte Vietnamese Coffee ($6.65), subbed oat milk (+$0.70). I really enjoyed my drink. There was a good balance of ube and coffee, and the sweetness was perfect for my taste. My brother and cousin got the Vietnamese Salt Coffee ($6.65) and Vietnamese Iced Matcha Latte ($7.45), respectively. My brother thought his drink was slightly too sweet but otherwise liked it. My cousin really liked her drink. I took a sip of it, and I thought the combination of matcha and coffee was really good. We also ordered the Breakfast Burrito ($11) with avocado (+$1.50). It had cheese, eggs, and bacon in it. I typically like my breakfast burritos with potatoes, so I was a little disappointed to see none. However, I still enjoyed the burrito. It was nice and warm, a good little breakfast for the morning.
