The Breakroom

The breakroom is a cute little cafe in downtown oakland. They have small menu consisting of vegetarian and vegan sandwiches and baked goods. I like this place, its simple and it’s tasty. Definitely not as exciting as Love and Haight or Ikes, but still delicious. They offer sandwiches with fake meat and tofu and veggies incase you’re not faux meat fan. The veggie meat they use can found in a grocery store, it tastes like maybe smart deli or yves and all of it is vegan. The veggie ham and turkey are really good, but the veggie bacon and salami is seriously lacking. Don’t they realize that they can get the best vegan veggie meat only a few blocks away at Layonna’s? Today I got a veggie salami sandwich and the meat was only good when disguised by the bread and veggies. The club sandwich, turkey bacon and ham n swiss were are perfect tummy pleasers though. This place is especially appealing to vegans, they have vegan cheese, vegan mayo and a ton a vegan baked goods. They have amazing coffee but not a whole lot of exciting beverages otherwise. Other things that are not so great is the seating area is small and they close at 7.
