    matcha latte and coffee
    Madison B.

    They have a nice outdoor patio they have to sit in the morning and take in the sun. I got the matcha latte with oatmilk and it had a nice sweetness and overall a good matcha drink!

    Coffee flight
    Yasmeen A.

    I got the coffee flight with the La Cabra espresso shot and the pistachio pastry. Service was good. Plenty of seating inside and out. Coffee was pretty strong , a bit too bitter for my taste personally. Suitable for the real hardcore coffee lovers. My favorite was the pistachio pastry I believe it had some soft raspberry filling with chunks of pistachios. So so good! I will be coming back but next time I'll try the matcha.

    No wifi and a smaller shop, but nice drinks and regular prices. The locations outside isn't great, but its cute, spacious, and clean inside. I'd come back for some coffee. Just fyi, the matcha at 100% sweetness seems like 75% sweetness of other shops.

    Come here for good coffee, friendly service, and clean seating area. Found this place on Yelp while searching for coffee shops I haven't yet tried. I came on a late Saturday morning. The pastries were almost sold out, but they had one more Everything Croissant, so I ordered it. That was pretty good. For coffee, I had the Cubano and the Salted Maple Bourbon latte. They were both good, but I thought they were both very heavy on the milk. It was hard to taste the coffee. I'll probably come back and try just plain coffee. It's a really pleasant place to hang out at, so I don't mind giving them another try.

    What a lovely lil cafe! This coffee shop is located right across from SJSU on E San Carlos Street. Parking is generally available on the street, and there are some spots in a private lot behind the shop as well. I came on a weekday afternoon and it wasn't too busy. The cafe has light wood tones throughout, with plenty of tables throughout. The baristas were friendly and helpful in explaining the menu and various selections! I ordered the cubano and the berry pistachio croissant, both of which came out quickly. I thought the cubano was delicious and well-balanced, and the croissant was warm, toasted, and buttery, pairing perfectly with the jam filling. I overall loved my order. I was pleasantly surprised by my trip here, and I'll definitely come back to sample the other pastries and coffee options.

    I spotted this place near the San Jose University, the table outside with the chess bought my attention. So I decided to check it out and I have to admit the coffee is delicious! There are classic and signature options, coffee flights and ... very interesting croissants (I tried pistachio version, delicious!). The staff is just amazing. Also, There is a typewriter in the restroom! That's like a hidden gem itself from the museum:) Parking is available along the street and behind the building.

    Omg, I loved coming to this cafe. First of all, the coffee is amazing. I had never experienced a coffee flight the way they have one and am excited to go back one day.

    Came here with my friends as part of the San Jose coffee passport stops. It's a cute cafe right next to San Jose state. We had a selection of coffee and pastries. Everything tasted great and the baristas were super sweet to us. Definitely worth a stop by!

    AM Craft is a cute little spot. They have some unique latte flavors, which I always appreciate. The staff were really nice, too. The only downsides are that the parking lot at the little shopping area has very few spots (and a very steep ramp that'll cause your car to bottom out), and the shopping area is kind of rundown. Their shop is pretty nice, given the surroundings, though. Definitely give one of their fancy latte flavors a try. They are pretty good.

    Matcha Latte
    Diana G.

    Good spot for folx who like creamy lattes. I've had a few of their drinks over the years and my top recommendation is the Toasted Marshmallow for a latte. I appreciate that their drinks are not overly sweet; they are just a little too creamy for my taste. Service: Staff is friendly, and service is quick. Ambiance: The café is on the smaller side but has a bar area, indoor seating, and some outdoor seating. There is plenty of natural light inside and is minimally decorated with warm tones.

    Ride and a cup

    Been several times. Always something new to try. Quality roasts. And coffee flights, what?!

    Matcha latte (hot) $4.75
    Kat T.

    Discovered this cute little cafe in downtown SJ during a gap and it was a pleasant experience! The interior gives off a minimal/clean aesthetic while actually being tidy and wiped down. There is minimal seating inside and outside. A menu is posted outside, but you'll find another copy inside along with free water. For those dining in, there is a small cart to leave your used glasses and plates/trays. There was a large group ahead of me, but the actual time it took for my drink to be made was fairly short :D DRINK: *Matcha latte (hot) -- I am most definitely coming back to order this because the quality and price are by far the best I've ever had! With the matcha craze these days, I appreciate a cozy shop like this that won't make you break your break for a sweet treat or energy boost. You can choose between whole milk and oat milk (I went w/ whole). Despite not being asked about sweetness adjustments, it was perfectly "not too sweet" while maintaining a satisfyingly potent matcha flavor. I'm not exactly sure how to describe it, but it tastes more like matcha offered in European cafe's rather than Japanese matcha dessert places. Either way, it was delicious and my cousin kept wanting to take some sips of this latte after we left XD The latte art and creamy foam on the surface was such a lovely surprise too! Comparable to La Lune Sucree's which is also in downtown SJ, but this is now my new local favorite. PARKING: Customers can find residential parking and walk or meter parking. My drink was made pretty quickly, so this is a great spot for grab and go!

    Espresso comes with sparkling water
    Felix W.

    I got an espresso and a cortado. The espresso didn't look as dark as I was expecting and didn't have crema but it wasn't bitter or burnt. The cortado was well balanced. Based on the other photos I might give it another try if I'm in the area.

Occasionally burnt espresso but I love them too much to mind. I am a matcha snob to say the LEAST. Hands down best coffee shop matcha in the Bay Area. The classic iced matcha latte with honey is grassy and earthy and creamy and a little sweet. The iced banana pudding matcha latte had people lined up around the corner for months when it came out. It is deliciously worth the wait. Best banana cold foam in my opinion because it's made with actual bananas instead of flavoring so it's much more mellow. The double matcha they had for awhile is also awesome. Banana cold foam also goes great on an espresso latte. Now they let you add whichever cold foam you like to whatever drink which is great. Basically you can't go wrong. They are always changing up the menu for the new season and have lots of unique drinks on their menu. Not much seating inside at this location. The winchester Blvd one has more if that's what you're looking for. Their pastries are also all yummy and they sell their matcha powder for $60 for 100g which is a GREAT price for a great matcha. I would've gate kept this place but everyone already knows about it so I HAVE to show them the love they deserve!!

I need to go back because everything I ordered was iced and I want to try some of the hot drinks.

Ordered: Dark Iced Chocolate Mocha and Nitro Cold Brew Bathroom: Yes WiFi: Yes This was our second time visiting and while we went into it with high expectations because of how much we enjoyed our visit (2 years ago), we did notice a dip in customer service and beverage quality. The espresso shot used in the iced mocha was not fully dialed to hit that balanced note that we are used to. The cold brew tasted more muddy than the previous time. Overall, the customer service seemed more like us inconveniencing the team, as opposed to being welcomed into the space. We noticed after we ordered our drinks, a line formed, and no one was available to take orders for customers due to behind the counter conversations that seemed more important than serving customers. There were two gentlemen who had been there approximately 10 minutes before us, and went to the pick up station three times to see if their orders were ready (multiple customers got their coffee and tea drinks before them). A quick note on the customer service - as someone who worked in food service for a number of years, I could empathize with teams that deal with high volume of customers. However, what separates good from great customer service is the ability to communicate with your customer when times are busy, as opposed to ignoring them. There are seated areas but fill up quickly, and they do have an outdoor space to hangout as well. If I'm in the plaza area and need a coffee, after this experience, we would debate before going.
