    Backyard Egg Sandwich
    Stephanie M.

    Very cute clean place. Staff is super friendly. The grounds are lovely and there are many places to sit. Breakfast food was great, will definitely go back for lunch!

    Chicken BLTA & Pepper Turkey Focaccia, hot chai latte & black iced tea

    I've been to Valley Goat before but recently discovered Backyard Cafe at Treehouse Hotel. Nice, cozy ambiance with holiday lights adorning the space. It gets busy during peak hours but a friend and I were able to enjoy a quiet breakfast. We were warmly greeted by Vanessa & Juni. They're so fun to talk to & super accommodating! Drinks: Hot Chai Latte Masala Chai Tea Black Iced Tea To go cups large size 16oz For here 12oz Breakfast: Buttermilk Waffle + Berries Breakfast Burrito Mushroom Quiche Lunch: Chicken BLT Rosemary Turkey Foccacia They also have quick options like pastries, prepacked salads, curried chicken salad, overnight oats, yogurt parfaits, etc. For drinks, they have freshly blended smoothies, coffee, tea, bottled juices, etc. Lots of options for everyone! Parking can be a doozy. There are signs saying the lot is full so complimentary valet only. Good luck finding a spot nearby Google.

    Mocha

    Cute place. Cute decor. Can be a good workspace if you want background noise but does get loud. Mocha was pretty good, good quality chocolate - came out quick. But price is pretty steep. Can be confusing on how to get to the cafe as it's part of a boutique hotel.

    My wife and I had a late start Sunday, we wanted to get here for brunch but didn't make it. We got here in time for lunch though and when coming around the parking lot, you can see how scenic this place looks. The giant warehouse building venue is the first place you'll notice and then once you start to walk over, you'll notice how modern these buildings look. We came here because we were mostly looking for a brunch location and were curious about the Treehouse hotel with their hospitality for pets too. We ordered the Ube Bae, matcha latte, Chicken BLT and Grilled Cheese as our first meal of the day. We actually enjoyed our meals, half the time of enjoying half of my chicken BLT gave me the thoughts of saving the other half for later and walk out with a To-go box . The seating within this area could seat probably 50 people max, the area is very bright and does hit the spot on that indoor barn house theme. They also have an open fridge near the front entrance where there was some grab and go food, some kombuchas and local beers. This place does give off a relaxing vibe with how the seating is, I'd come here if I want a chill place to edit videos, do some work or even be on a zoom call. The building is also close to a green house, a treehouse hotel, and I think there's also a craft beer steakhouse next door. I didn't walk in but, I saw was large TVs inside, the smell of smoke meat and people drinking beer from the outdoor seating. After some walking around, the greenhouse has a cute little vintage VW buggy inside and next to that was 10 V4 Tesla Superchargers if you got that NACs port, this would be a good spot to stop and check out the place!

    I stopped by Backyard Cafe, because it looked like a cozy little spot for coffee and a bite to eat. I was a little confused when I arrived, since it was part of a boutique hotel. It was also really packed. The food and drink were a mixed bag. The gingerbread latte and berry cronut? Quite good. The $16 egg sandwich? Extremely mediocre. Overall, I'm a bit disappointed by the experience. Even if some of the food and my drink was pretty good, all of that was $37 BEFORE tip. I just can't justify that price. Especially for a cafe at a hotel.

    Gotta check out the hotel lobby next door - gorgeous interior!!

    I heard about this place recently and was excited to try it. It's nestled right across from Valley Goat restaurant and next to the Treehouse hotel. The quaint and modern interior includes a great ambiance however the food itself falls a bit short hence why 4/5 stars. It is a cute little coffee shop with some distinct modern design. It is a bit on the casual side. You place your order at the front and then it's "seat yourself" kind of vibe. They have a limited selection of meal options but plenty of coffee and also lots of juice and smoothies options too! I got the Turkey sandwich and my husband got the BLT. It just comes with the sandwich, there are no sides like a salad, fruit or fries so that was a bit unfortunate. It would be nice if they added a side to their meal choices especially for the price. With that said, as they were tasty they definitely needed something else to elevate the dishes a bit. I do appreciate the small little touches like the spa elevated water and environmentally friendly cups and complementary games. So I'd say this place is great for a casual breakfast lunch, perfect if you want to get out of the house for a coffee and got some work or studying done, as well as if you are a guest at the hotel wanting a quick treat!

    Was here during Christmas since my family and I stayed at the Treehouse Hotel. The decorations inside was super festive. Love all the Elf in Shelf everywhere. Went early in the morning so not a lot of people yet, but plenty of workers. I had to try their mocha and enjoyed it. So my daughter decided to try as well. The quiche was delicious. They had games that you can play while waiting for your food,

    Food is delicious, staff is so friendly. Love how you can customize the hot food items and that they are made in the kitchen to order. The cafe de olla frappe & everything nice bagel were so delicious. The cafe is a large blue building located at the Treehouse Hotel Property. Currently parking is free at the hotel. Menu is on the Treehouse Hotel website. Hours were 630AM - 2PM. It's right next door to Valley Goat restaurant, their weekend brunch 11AM - 2PM is bomb too. FYI: The "for here" coffee cup sizes only come in 12 oz but the "to go" size also comes in a large. I didn't see any prices listed for the grab n go items in the shelves: chips, candy bars, sodas etc.

    Best best best in Bay Area! The environment... so good, so chic, so fresh! I can't remember his name, but the person working at the register is sooo friendly! His style perfectly matches the atmosphere. I have tried 3 coffees there, and all of them were great, but the MATCHA is the best best best! OMG!! Go right away and try it with almond milk. The downside is, sadly, they close at 2 pm. I wish they could stay open until 5 o'clock tea. Tip for the business: 1- please bring fat-free milk options. 2- please don't forget to clean up the tables more often.

    Banana matcha

    I have stopped by here to study a few times and love it. The space is very cozy and their matcha is good quality. I have mainly ordered matcha lattes and loved their seasonal banana matcha. The staff is friendly and they are pretty quick with orders.

    Treehouse is 100% my new favorite spot. The personality of this place is unmatched -- from the flatware signs to the outfits, the decor, even the coffee cups. Every detail feels intentional. It's such a well thought out space. It's connected to a hotel, so they're clearly set up for morning traffic, and they do it beautifully. They're open until 2pm, which makes it perfect for work sessions. This is officially my new workstation. The matcha? The best I've had in the South Bay so far. It did take a little longer, but I watched them actually make it from scratch and it was absolutely worth it. Super high quality. The latte was great, the pastries were so fresh -- everything felt elevated. Being there genuinely felt like being transported somewhere else. The concept is so cohesive, so relaxing, and everyone in the space just seemed happy to be there. The energy was calm, welcoming, and thoughtful. Every single person was kind -- even down to the valet. Parking is interesting -- it's a huge complex connected to Google, event spaces, dinner spots, etc., so there's plenty of parking but it fills up. You might have a short walk, but it's completely manageable. I cannot wait to bring people here. Truly could not recommend more. I'll be back again and again.

    loveee the decor of this place! so comfy and cute. workers were super sweet as well. i would definitely post up here for a good working sesh, has a great vibe and tucked into the Google campus so you have to go in and find it. i got the matcha n chill and 10/10 recommend it was SO yummy, fresh, and lowkey im still thinking about it - i need to get it again!! the only thing is the price tag ... $13 for my drink... but again it was super yummy so maybe i'll come back for it :'))

    A pretty cute cafe located in a really beautiful hotel. I only grabbed an overnight oats for breakfast and it was delicious. Would love to try their coffee next time!

I would like to try their strawberry croissant next time. Prices are a little high/ average for a fancy bakery, but at least everything tastes really good to make it feel worth the cost. There were a few blemishes on the croissant sometimes but it didn't affect how it tastes. The croissant sandwich was decent, but not the star of the show. I bought a matcha croissant as well and I thought it was ok, the matcha taste was pretty strong throughout, I just would like it to be more like a matcha cream filled croissant instead. Pistachio Basque cheesecake that my friend got was also ok. Probably not the best cheesecake I've had, but so so. Ambiance: large open space with tables. My friend and I were trying to get brunch at Giwa, but it was way too crowded on a Sunday afternoon so we came here instead. There was only a short wait and we found a table easily. Service: you stand in line and choose the pastries you want and can order brunch items/ drinks at the counter as well.

Because, once again, I was distracted by the quality of the food, and there would be no way for me to do anything else, but to eat! Today, I was in the mood for something more than a salad (much as I wanted to preset what I had the first time coming here, I made a concerted effort to order something else...), thus I chose the Forager Flatbread. It took less time to make this time (roughly about five minutes after ordering), and when it came out, I marveled at how it looked like a work of art! Just beautiful! Each piece of herbed formage blanc flatbread had a nice, crunchy bottom (but not blackened) and a slightly tanginess, with a a good amount of "hen-of-the-wood" mushrooms, sweet roasted garlic and a bed of arugula. My, oh, my! My first bite was a multi-level extravaganza! The crunch of the bread, followed by the aroma of the herbs and arugula, then the saltiness of the cheese, the sweetness of the roasted garlic, the earthiness of the mushrooms - all came together as just a wonderful work of culinary art! This being my first time eating today, my saliva glands just fired off at first bite, causing a bit of intense pain from too much saliva shooting out. But, seriously, this was a very delicious entree, that I enjoyed from start to finish! Bravo for this second joyous experience!

My coworker had Beef Asparagus which had beef, asparagus, rice, onions, and some other veggies that I couldn't figure it out. Definitely the best meal I've had since I've been there. It's unfortunate that the meals rotate every day otherwise I would buy that meal at least once a week. I'm glad I found one of my new favorite meals for work lunch!
