Get a brownie. Thank me later…read more Venture Coffee was a bit of a surprise hit for me for a few reasons. I wasn't expecting it to be part of a church, and I certainly wasn't expecting the entire area to be under construction when I arrived haha. Although it was a little tricky to find the entrance due to that construction, it most certainly was worth it. The latte iced latte I ordered was delicious, the space was beautiful, the seating was ample, and the biggest surprise of the whole experience... the brownie might be one of the best I've eaten in my life. I will certainly be coming back. Can't recommend this spot enough.

I was also surprised that I liked both sauces the burrito came with (I'm not sure why I was surprised, I guess I just thought I'd prefer one over the other, but both were great!) They sell Saint Frank coffee and have a number of breakfast and lunch items available. There is plenty of parking since this is in a strip mall. The interior is cute and seems like a great place to catch up with friends.

I'm sure they were rushing to get everyone out of the store so that they could go home. Totally get it! Staff were very sweet, and the shop itself is very cute and cozy. Perfect place for hanging out! The rating mainly goes for the drinks itself...I had ordered the vanilla bean latte and my sister had gotten the matcha. We were both pretty disappointed with the drinks, as the latte barely tasted of coffee or vanilla for that matter. Just tasted like warm milk with a hint of coffee. The matcha was very bitter, no sweetness at all, and had some sort of cream foam on top, which tasted salty. My sister and I ended up throwing out our drinks later. Again, staff were SO sweet!! They handled the rush of last minute customers as well as they could. But for the price we paid for our drinks, we expected something a bit better.

Stopped by the Strait Coffee Roasters booth at the farmers market today. Austin, the roaster, is…read morevery friendly and approachable. He specializes in light-roast, single-origin (often rare) beans. He mainly sells bags of coffee but also serves excellent pour-overs--clean cups with fruit-forward notes. The bean selection was fantastic, spanning what he categorizes as Traditional, Rare, and Exceptional varieties. I picked up a bag of Colombia CGLE -- Las Margaritas Gesha Honey (Rare) and had a single-cup pour-over. Delicious, perfectly roasted coffee with tropical fruit flavors and no bitterness or off‑flavors. I'll definitely be back!

I've been visiting his booth at the farmers market for about 8 weeks now and I have tried about 5 different coffees. All have been great coffee from his lower end to his higher end beans. I just bought my first bag from him today, and I am looking forward to it after a bit of rest. It was roasted last night, so super fresh. If you haven't tried his coffee yet, stop by, let it cool a bit and sip it black. I promise you'll want to come back for more.

As soon as we walked in, we were greeted by Enrique, who had such a warm and welcoming demeanor. We took a moment to look over the menu, and he quickly picked up that it was our first time. After we confirmed, he asked about our coffee preferences--strong, sweet, or somewhere in the middle--and walked us through the seasonal menu with some great suggestions. My wife ordered the iced lavender vanilla, and I went with the iced café carmelita. He also asked if we wanted food, so we tried the lemon blueberry loaf and a turkey avocado sandwich. Everything did not disappoint. The drinks were amazing--Enrique absolutely nailed the recommendations--and the turkey avocado sandwich was especially memorable. While our drinks were being made, we had some friendly small talk with the staff, which added to the experience. The overall vibe was great. The team was super friendly and attentive--when a line started forming, other staff jumped in right away to make sure no one was left waiting. I'm really glad we stopped in and gave this place a shot. We'll definitely be back!

Would've loved to taste the bean more 4/5 stars - $4.50? Definitely a good work/study cafe on a random weekday

I had a very disappointing and uncomfortable experience at Lele Cafe in San Jose today.I was…read moresitting outside with my wife when another customer came up to us and rudely told us to get up and move because he claimed he had "reserved" the seat by leaving cutlery there. There was no cutlery on the table when we sat down. We absolutely did not remove anything. Still, he accused us of moving it and made the situation unnecessarily uncomfortable. To avoid creating a scene, we moved. After sitting nearby, I calmly told him that I was with my family and that he could have handled the situation politely instead of making accusations. His response was rude and dismissive, basically telling me not to bring it up again. I then went inside and explained the situation to the owner/manager. She admitted that she was the one who had cleared the cutlery, which means the other customer was completely wrong to accuse us. My expectation was that she would at least acknowledge this properly or tell the customer that we had done nothing wrong. Instead, she admitted and did nothing. On top of that, our order was just sitting there waiting, and no one even announced our name or made a proper effort to let us know it was ready. So not only was the customer experience handled poorly, but the basic service was lacking too. That was the most disappointing part. Customers should not be made to feel disrespected or falsely accused, especially when the staff knows what actually happened. A simple clarification from the owner could have prevented the whole situation from escalating and could have made us feel respected. The food or atmosphere does not matter if customers are treated this way. Very

I'm not a huge boba/milk tea fan so I guess take this as a review from someone with pretty…read moresuperficial knowledge. I tried two drinks, a Vietnamese iced coffee made less sweet and a 3/4 sweet peach... peach something. I forget the name, but the menu is small it's the peach one. Both were fantastic. Definitely on the sweet side but not "this is melted ice cream" sweet like I've had at some places. I'd still probably get the peach one 50% next time. The Vietnamese iced coffee was very intensely flavored, had a great texture, and for whatever reason wasn't as hyper-caffeinated as some I'd had. I've had some Vietnamese coffees that made me feel like I was going to bounce off the walls, this was more mellow. But it still has the strong coffee flavor I'm used to. The peach drink was super refreshing, full of peach flavor, but again the level of sugar wasn't cloying at all. And the little chunks of peach added a nice texture to the experience. Again, not an expert on milk tea/boba, but this was probably some of the best I've had, definitely the best I can remember. Inside the shop is a bit spartan but there's seating for a few groups. You order via a kiosk and then someone brings the drinks out to the counter, so it's a bit impersonal. They take credit cards and the parking lot is a little tight.

We ordered: - Brûlée Green Milk Tea: 4/5 - Be sure to mix it well, as the brûlée layer sticks thickly to the sides of the cup.

The peach and oolong flavors paired well and tasted refreshing. I'd definitely come back to try some of their other drinks!
