Hours at these spots often run into the evening, later than a typical coffee shop, and many stay open on weekends when demand is highest in Berkeley.

Some locations in California are dessert-only with no seating, meant for takeout, while others have cafe-style seating for staying a while. Straws for bubble tea are typically wide to accommodate the toppings, and are provided automatically unless you ask for a regular one. Loyalty apps and stamp cards are common at chain locations, and ordering ahead through an app can shorten a wait considerably at busy locations during peak after-school and after-dinner hours.

What a gem, lovely people great customers service and the food is outstanding I got a merguez (beef sausage) sandwich the bread crunchy with a soft bite the meat is super fresh and well seasoned and of course I have to get the famous Algerian soda Selecto. That’s my new spot in Berkeley

We came here for afternoon snacks while exploring the area and ordered Capuccino and desserts. The look of the desserts is very enticing and inviting, I enjoyed the crunchiness, however way too sweet for our liking. The Capuccino was alright, nothing special. Happy we visited and tried some.

Had the best lunch in Berkeley this morning. I had the Merguez Beef Sausage Sandwich and I loved it! The bread tasted like just came freshly out of the oven and the sausage was delicious! Definitely check out this place if you are in the mood for a good sandwich, a sweet bite or just an artisan morning coffee!

Absolutely love this cafe—halal, a dangerously large dessert selection, and customer service so nice it almost feels suspicious. I somehow keep “accidentally” ending up there… even when I’m in Berkeley for completely unrelated reasons. Funny how that works. Their Margaaz halal Algerian sausage sandwich is a must try-I always have to order it 🙃

Belmo Café – A Rare Bakery Gem Worth the Journey At last—we’ve found a truly exceptional bakery. Belmo Café is an absolute treasure, offering baklava of every kind imaginable, each one crafted to perfection with delicate layers, balanced sweetness, and rich, authentic flavor. Beyond the baklava, their specialty French and Algerian pastries are nothing short of extraordinary. Every item reflects skill, tradition, and care—these are not everyday desserts, but culinary gems you savor slowly and remember long after. This is the kind of place that’s worth any trip, no matter the distance. If you appreciate genuine craftsmanship, refined flavors, and pastries made the right way, Belmo Café delivers on every level. I highly recommend giving them a try—you’ll quickly understand why this bakery stands in a class of its own.
