Coffee & Matcha Cart Catering in Oakland, CA
Lạc Coffee brings a Vietnamese phin coffee and hand-whisked matcha cart to East Bay weddings and events across Oakland, CA.
Lake Merritt and Jack London Square
Oakland's waterfront and lakeside venues have brought us some of our favorite East Bay weddings — receptions around Lake Merritt, warehouse spaces near Jack London Square, and backyard gatherings tucked into the hills. It's a longer drive from our shop in Newark, CA than our closest cities, but it's well within range.
We're the only cart in the Bay Area pouring Vietnamese phin coffee alongside hand-whisked matcha, which tends to be a novelty in a city with plenty of great espresso already.
