A new café by Sightglass Coffee has opened at UC Berkeley’s Helen Diller Anchor House, marking a significant expansion for the San Francisco roaster. This is the first new location in six years and the first in the Bay Area in almost a decade. The café is positioned at a bustling intersection, providing greater access to students and the community. It aims to strengthen its presence in the East Bay while contributing to local initiatives.
• The café is located at 2169 University Ave, near UC Berkeley.
• A portion of the rent will support housing and scholarships for transfer students.
• The café introduces the Grizzly Peak Blend, its first Regenerative Organic Certified coffee.
• Proceeds from this blend will benefit the Edible Schoolyard Project.
This expansion is not just about coffee; it represents a commitment to community support and sustainability. By collaborating with local businesses and contributing to educational initiatives, Sightglass Coffee is enhancing its role in the region's coffee culture while making a positive impact.
