La Mancha Plaza — Local services in Oakland

Unfortunately, I will be giving this Plaza a low rating. I do enjoy shopping there, and a good donut, hair products are readily available there. However, there is now a serious ADA access violation on the premises. There is a closed gate blocking access to the Plaza on the Telegraph Ave side. Also there are personal planters, etc., blocking the front inside of that gate. We are receiving complaints that because of this accesibility violation, power chair users, wheel chair users, guide dog users, persons using co2 tanks, and persons using crutches or walkers cannot be expected to enter the Plaza through the DRIVEWAY !!..This is a hazardous situation, as quite often, drivers make a quick right turn from Telegraph into the Plaza driveway, to park in the lot. Also people leaving the Plaza on the Telegraph Ave. side, are in a rush to drive out. This makes a very difficult passage for mobility device users. It is also a code Compliance matter. Remove this gate blocking access to the plaza, and remove planters as well. The plaza must be ADA compliant...

It's often got a rough crowd but I didn't feel u safe. Donut shop is great and also sells cigarettes. Would recommend their croissant...

Eat at Von's kitchen here! Spicey pork lunch box!...
