Cup O' Jo
Welcome to Cup O' Jo, a hidden gem nestled in the heart of Clayton, CA. Located at 6054 Main St, this quaint cafe invites you to experience coffee culture in its purest form. With a rustic charm that feels like a throwback to simpler times, this local treasure is the perfect spot to unwind, delve into a good book, or even tackle some quiet paperwork.
Stepping inside, you are greeted by the eclectic decor that boasts a vibrant collection of art and music, reflecting the unique personality of owner Peter. It’s as if you’ve entered a cozy time capsule reminiscent of Berkeley’s boho coffee shops from the 1970s. The ambiance is warm and inviting, a haven for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle.

Cup O' Jo offers a wide array of expertly brewed coffees that promise to awaken your senses.

In addition to their superb coffee, patrons can enjoy a selection of bagels and pastries that are just right for breakfast or a sweet treat.

The heartfelt testimonials from patrons prove that this cafe is not just a spot for coffee; it's a community hub where you can support local business and enjoy rich, flavorful brews that remind you what true coffee should taste like. Mr. Powers advises, "Take the time and sit to enjoy your brew... you'll thank yourself," and truly, it’s advice worth taking.
