Way Station Brew

“Great garden out back, well-made coffee and delicious baked goods.”

Rebeca Stacey★★★★★

True gem of a place! Berkeley needs more places like this, instead of the endless chain restaurants all over Telegraph. Because it’s situated in a more residential area, Way Station keeps a unique quiet charm. Their coffee and food are always phenomenal (look at that latte art!) and the atmosphere is great—whether you want to work, read a book, or socialize.

Local vibes, local friendliness. An early morning breakfast soon after they opened, and not alone. A popular place with great coffee and pastries and bread made in house. Super friendly.

Visited this place on a Sunday morning for brunch. The savory brunch menu items did not look super interesting honestly and needed better presentation. Tried the avocado toast with egg and the cheese burger. The avocado toast was ok, but not great. The cheese burger with added avocado and mushrooms was very good actually, something to come back for!

Waystation is the kinda Berkeley neighborhood spot I hope never goes away. I came up in Brooklyn working at a place just like this that’s long gone. I miss it. This spot also has Lots of gluten free options. My Only One star deducted is for NO laptop plugs or chargers. I needed to do work while my car was being serviced at Honda of Berkeley but my laptop was at 10%. Would have LOVED to do it here with my coffee and breakfast, but alas. I also wonder if they are under new ownership? Ultimately come here & keep this place going. Apparently, they have game nights and stuff in the evening!
