| - Making its triumphant entrance as Oakland's only independent coffee shop, Redhawk Coffee hits the nail on the head. The owner is passionate and amicable, bumping punk music and chatting with customers as he brews his product with enthusiasm. I can't really drink coffee right now, but I sampled my buddy's Vietnamese cold brew, and I was upset that I couldn't finish the bottle. They are very specific in labeling the percentages of coffee varieties in each brew. Whether intentional or not, Redhawk provides an educational experience for its campus customers. The atmosphere of the shop is very homemade, with old-school, Darwinian looking biological/zoological art strewn along the walls, further emphasizing shop's organic feel.
If you're passionate about coffee, trying to support local businesses, looking for a cool place to meet up with friends or colleagues, or just wanna talk chop with some awesome baristas, Redhawk is the hippest option available in Oakland.
