Suggestions for Cafe, Coffee, and Tea House near Palo Alto

Karla • November 1, 2012A nice alternative to running into Starbucks, Pete's or even Philz. Can't go wrong with the pastries, sweet or savory.

Nil U. • July 30, 2023Try baklava, lokum and poacha with delicious Turkish black tea on original cups.

Catherine M. • May 13, 2018Loved their mocha with freshly ground cacao beans from Ecuador with quality simple syrup (or maple syrup). My 7-yr-old enjoyed her handmade chocolate milk (organic cow's milk with a dash of Nutella).

Gina O. • May 13, 2019The line was out the door so we knew it had to be good. We got the pesto and the jalapeño breads, the princess cake, tiramisu and mango mousse; all.of it was fantastic!! Great service too!

Dan R. • December 25, 2016It's in the most amazing space, easily the best iteration of a blue bottle. Possibly the best iteration of a coffee shop. The food is excellent, and (as at any blue bottle), get a NOLA or a cortado.

Roderick G. • March 30, 2013Great sandwiches. Go for the "Rueben!" You won't be disappointed.

Ziyan C. • January 25, 2012three words: iced mint mojito

Farah J. • September 4, 2018Everything is great about this place. Pastries, coffee, food, staff, and service.

Jones • December 31, 2020Damn, the pastries are good here. Monkey bread, chocolate croissant and ham cheese croissant were all excellent. Coffee was above average

Doug B. • October 6, 2013Start with a Tesora then work your way darker/lighter to find your favorite. Single cup brewing takes time. Be patient! It's worth the extra time. The cookies are awesome: try the candied popcorn one.

Renee B. • March 29, 2017Coffee and bakery items are delicious.

Lior G. • August 18, 2014Best coffee in Palo Alto. Hands down.

Raúl G. • August 27, 2021Inspiring place to take a coffee and work.

Christine W. • January 13, 2016Pumpernickel is my go-to as its rare to find in the Bay Area. But the Babka is mindblowingly good. If you've never had it before, try it. It's my new povitica.

Bia K. • September 24, 2013Amazing salads and iced teas. Try the red one with passion fruit.

Matthew C. • August 26, 2012Great corner breakfast joint. Everything you'd expect (including the wait) without pretension. Great hash browns- crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, a delightful rarity in these parts!

Paul M. • January 31, 2019Gotta to with a classic — Strawberry Matcha Latte (small, Oatly oat milk, no toppings.) Soooo creamy, perfect matcha taste, and just enough sweet from the berries.

Dushyant B. • September 4, 2019Comfortable seating, undiscovered so far

Alex B. • October 2, 2017Get strawberry fresh fruit with black tea. Strawberry boba or tapioca pearls

Paul M. • December 26, 2021Pro tip: you can order any usual drink (eg. cortado, cappuccino, mocha) and they’ll deliver. Don’t let the minimal menu turn you away!

Renee T. • April 18, 2015Fun and crowded food/coffee place to work and have meetings or just relax and enjoy some coffee.

Tim D. • September 27, 2018Get the liquid gold

JJ V. • June 22, 2016Open for 2 days. House smoked meats have been excellent w/sides

Shankar S. • June 24, 2013Great place for a meal or snack after a round ...... And a GORGEOUS view of the Bay

Glennia C. • January 17, 2010Great place to sit outside in the spring/summer! Like dining on a piazza in Florence.

Tobias S. • January 16, 2018It's a Peet's so you know what you're getting. Staff are very nice and friendly

Brett B. • June 22, 2018Sit outside and meet the locals and people visiting Palo Alto.

Gracie L. • August 22, 2013Awesome macarons; the triple layer chocolate, banana crunch, tiramisu and and cappuccino cakes are to die for. Frozen yogurt is great too; the people are so nice and helpful.
