Aman Cafe is a cool place to go when you want a modern yet international breakfast or lunch in a hip location. First of all they are a first class coffee shop serving an excellent brew, but they also serve Indian style Roti served American style with savory or sweet toppings, much as you might enjoy a crepe in an upscale American / French breakfast joint.

5 stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Aman Cafe is a true gem in Oakland. The space is welcoming and calm, with a vibe that feels like you’re stepping into someone’s home—intentional, warm, and full of care. You can tell everything here is made with heart.
