Rose Pizzeria team debuts Cafe Brusco; specialty coffee and blooms arrive in Downtown Oakland
"Last year, the New York Times crowned Rose Pizzeria one of the best pizza spots in the United States. Now, the team behind the celebrated Berkeley staple has opened the doors to a new venture, Cafe Brusco, right down the street from the pizzeria. The all-day cafe features house-made bagels baked in the sister restaurant's pizza ovens along with coffee and pastries from other local vendors, including Good Luck Bakery. Cafe Brusco will also begin offering wine in the near future."
"Sweet treats in the form of coffee, matcha, bubbly teas and fluffy cookies are the draw at Olivia Coffee and Flower, which recently opened in Uptown Oakland. Here, the Korean-inspired specialty drinks don't cut corners; the banana milk latte is topped with half of a beautiful, slightly caramelized banana, and the vanilla cream latte includes - you guessed it - a vanilla bean pod resting beautifully on the cushion of sweet cream. Light lunch items like caprese salads and Italian sandwiches are also available,"
Rose Pizzeria's team opened Cafe Brusco on University Avenue in Berkeley, an all-day cafe offering house-made bagels baked in the sister restaurant's pizza ovens. The cafe pairs bagels with coffee and pastries sourced from local vendors including Good Luck Bakery. Cafe Brusco plans to begin offering wine soon. Olivia Coffee and Flower opened in Uptown Oakland featuring Korean-inspired specialty drinks such as a banana milk latte topped with a caramelized half banana and a vanilla cream latte garnished with a vanilla bean pod. The Oakland spot also serves light lunches like caprese salads and Italian sandwiches and will offer fresh-cut flowers.
