Nice coffee spot in Cupertino with walkable area around the apartment complex! Plenty of parking spots, many options of coffee and non coffee drinks, nice staff and quick service! I got iced latte and it was quite good. There is a restroom inside. Overall it's a really fun place with paintings and posters around, big tables and outside sitting! read more

Bitter Sweet has a great ambience with green indoor plants, succulents and an aquarium. Seating is comfortable and the drip coffees are excellent. I recently tried a pho latte which was quite unique, and an orange scone that was delicious. I will not be trying the pho latte again since pho in coffee is an acquired taste. The owner is a bit strict about bringing pets inside, which was a bit of a downside for me. read more

Met one of my bestie's here earlier today for our monthly coffee catch up. Found this gem on yelp & chose it specifically for the Affogata! Of course I forgot to take a photo of my yummy drink (mearly perfect) and my friend had a yummy Turkey/artichoke panini served with fresh tomato that was delish. He also had a black sesame latte thar was top notch with beautiful latte art heart. The food & drinks were great and what makes this place a 5 is the ambiance & vibe (and good retro tunes & a fishtank with Nemo) Comfy chairs, few tables to work if that is yoir thing, decent parking availability, and easy to --very close to the cupertino Library. We will definitely be back for more sandwiches & coffee etc. read more

I'm rarely in SJ but decided to ride with hubby to work today, and found this cafe a few minutes away! I wanted a cute and cozy spot to do some work, and this was exactly what I found. First thing I noticed and loved was that there were a ton of plants, and lots of decorations catered to anime, superhero's, and games. There were some arcade games which was cute, and a fish tank (that definitely needs to be cleaned). I came here because I noticed some cool latte flavors, like Pho and Miso??? Unfortunate I was too chicken to try it, so I ended up getting the black sesame latte (half sweet) due to popular reviews. Service was straight forward and quick, not too much interaction. I asked for wifi because I had zero reception and they gave me a tiny slip of paper with a code on it, which only worked for 1 device for a designated 2 hours. Weird but fine, the wifi worked well. My drink was decent as well, the sesame flavor wasn't as pronounced as I would have liked, but the latte art was beautiful! My hubby joined me during his lunch break and ordered a red velvet latte to go, and I liked that one better. Overall I had a good experience and found what I was hoping for, so I would come back! read more

Interesting coffee shop with many interesting coffee me up like miso latte and pho latte. The interior is unique with a lot of action figure, plant and old arcade machine. It has limited pastries choices. One worker is friendly. One Miso latte is interesting. It has saltiness but cannot taste the miso. I like the arcade machine. The price is reasonable. read more

This place lived up to its name. The coffee and cake were both very good, but the service was poor. They have the menu at the entrance, not where you order, and if you have the audacity to ask questions because you didn't memorize it, the tattooed barista can't be bothered to help you out. He should be in a different job because he clearly hates having to deal with customers. It's a shame because everything else at the cafe is well done and maintained. But there is no shortage of coffee places to spend your money at where they actually make you feel welcomed. read more

Update.... Today was a great visit!! I swung in to grab two lattes on my way to meet a friend for a hike and the worker was fantastic - chatty, friendly and super pleasant The shop was quiet at 815 on a foggy Sunday morning, would have been great to sit and read with my latte I asked for extra hot and it was perfect!! read more

Came here on a Sunday afternoon with a friend to grab coffee. The ambiance inside is cool and inviting, with amazing decor around. I ordered the red velvet latte with oat milk, the barista ensured it wouldn't be too sweet, they made the drinks pretty quick and they tasted good! I was hoping to try some of their dessert but they seemed to have ran out of their bakery items by the time I made it. But I would still come back for the latte! Cute spot for a nice hang. read more

I hadn't been here in years and decided to get a coffee since I was in the area. From what I had remembered the coffee was okay, but the owner/worker wasn't super friendly. I walked in and immediately recognized the worker and his attitude. In the short 5 minutes I was there, he was rude to two different people. He also doesn't bother greeting or thanking his customers. Anyways, I ordered an iced lavender latte and it was... okay. Flavor was decent but the drink was tiny for 7 dollars. Honestly, you can find better coffee and service elsewhere! read more

Cute cafe with unique drink items! Located in a plaza so it was easy to find parking. The interior was cute, with an arcade game and some seating. Ordered the red bean matcha, red velvet latte, and hazelnut chocolate mousse. The matcha and red bean were light in flavor and the red velvet mainly had a coffee taste. The latte art was pretty. The mousse was good, but gets very chocolatey and sweet as you eat it. I liked the interior and decorations around! There were tables to sit by and a couch area. read more

Food and coffee is a bit overpriced. The reason for the 1 star is owner attitude and discourteousness. Super rude. I asked for a WiFi voucher, and he said you have to keep buying (i had already bought 2 items)... he said he needs to actively prevent people from his shop, i detected a racism in his speech, the micro aggression that is hard to pinpoint exactly, but definitely there. Never returning, never recommending read more

Definitely love the vibe and really great coffee, but the service was alittle cold and short. First time there and had unique flavors but Felt alil unwelcomed . I guess it lived up to the name . Haha read more

Black sesame latte was delicious with oat milk! Just one barista when I went on a weekday afternoon (I think it was the owner) and they whipped up my drink quickly. Heads up, they don't do personal cups. I usually bring my own to keep my hot drinks hot even when I dine in since I'm guilty of babysitting my drinks-but no biggie since my latte was so good I finished it up quicker than I normally would. Plenty of parking both in front of the shop and I think there's a garage. The vibes inside were very cozy today near the window as it drizzled. I liked the decor and took some moments to admire the walls of art and the huge plant near the door. I'd come back to try some other things. read more

Cute little coffee shop with enough tables for you to work. They have a lot of Asian based flavored drinks, which was really cool. Got the black sesame latte and it was good. Only thing I didn't like was that they had horrible reception. They offered free wifi but it was only for one device, so I was connected on my laptop, but my phone was basically a brick. read more

There's plenty of parking around and plenty of seating. Drinks are great. Highly recommended coming here. :) Heads up: If you're here to study, you are given a code upon drink purchase. It's for 2 hours and for 1 device only! Black Sesame Oat Milk Latte 5/5: Very good, not too sweet and strong sesame flavor. What really impressed me was that the oat milk was foamed quite well! The way cow milk vs oat milk is foams is slightly different and most of the time, the oat milk gets over foamed and ends up with lots of bubbles which disrupts the smooth texture of the latte. This cafe did a great job with the latte and I can't wait to try out more of their drinks! Service: Fast! Ambiance: This cafe is one of the few places left where they encourage you to lounge and chat. It's cozy with tons of places to sit and even more knick knacks to spot. And with drinks that are that fantastic, it's definitely a place to visit over and over again. read more

Bitter Sweet is tucked away in between some apartment buildings and stores. There is a small parking lot with other stores around. Vibe & ambiance were pretty chill - a lot of art and pokemon décor around. Fish tanks could use some cleaning, as one them was almost completely brown. Came with a friend and we both ordered a Vietnamese ice coffee and it did not deliver. We both felt duped cause it tasted more like an iced espresso latte. At least add some condensed milk to try to fool us! Was very unhappy with my drink and just gave the rest to my friend. Pastries are good, not too bad. They also seem to have a lot of interesting latte choices, so I'd probably check that out next time. read more

The coffee is great! Really cool indie interior. Unfortunately, service is very rude. I was sitting outside and moved an outdoor furniture piece. One of the workers rudely instructed me I can't do that, didn't like his attitude. Would go again if better service read more

I got the yuzu matcha and breakfast sandwich! I liked the yuzu matcha a lot! Both flavors were present, and neither one overpowered the other. The sandwich was pretty decent, but nothing too special. There's a decent amount of seating and the playlist was great. It is a little expensive for the serving size, especially the tiny drink, but it was definitely worth trying. read more

I got the frozen toffee drink which I didn't see on the menu but from Yelp and it was delicious! Not too sweet and had a great frozen blended texture. Getting the drink was super fast as well! Inside it is more of a fun chill hangout spot with all the cute decoration ranging from anime, Pokémon, etc. it's nice that they have some board/card games as well as some arcade games! Will definitely try out some of their food next time! read more

I just happened to stumble across this place when I was running an errand nearby. It had a good vibe with some couch seating, books, games, old school game machines like Pac-Man, and a big fish tank. They had some interesting flavor combinations, so I went with a black sesame iced latte with almond milk. They use condensed milk, but they were able to make it less sweet. The drink was smooth and not powdery from the black sesame. They also had interesting items like a miso latte and red bean matcha, which I would want to try another visit. It's definitely a place that makes you feel like you you want to stay and hang out while you enjoy your drink. Of note, Apple Pay wasn't accepted the day I went. read more

Employees are not very friendly, and my latte was overly milky. The ambiance is cool but would be better with a friendlier atmosphere.

The service is terrible. I've been here several times now and the manager, or seems to be so, is so rude. He seems uncomfortable and acts impatient, ex. sighing & rolling eyes, when you order. I totally get everyone has bad days, so I've come back several times but just can't stand the bad energy of the workers anymore. Aside from all that, the drinks are delightful. Hope whatever's going on with them gets better ! read more

Quick service, friendly enough. I had their version of a London fog, too much lavender for my personal taste, but still good. Husband had red velvet latte, recommended by employee when he asked if they had a vanilla latte. Very strong coffee. Shop was nice, decorated very cool with all kinds of fun things to look at. read more

Such a cute coffee shop! We came by on a Saturday morning for a to-go coffee run and this place was busssyyy. They have unique lattes such as Miso and Pho! Customer service: Friendly, quick, and efficient. We got our orders in less than 5 minutes. Red velvet latte - Creamy and NOT sweet at all. The taste was just perfect. Honey lavender latte - I was expecting this drink to be sweet but it was more bitter than red velvet! 0%sweetness imo. We stuck with whole milk so it was really creamy and delicious. read more

One of my brother's favorite coffee spots in Cupertino, and my husband and I finally stopped by. Decent amount of parking for a weekend. Interior had some eclectic decor and BEAUTIFUL plants everywhere. Every single one look well-maintained. I ordered and iced red velvet latte, and it was pretty good. Barista was a bit rude (even my husband noticed), so a point off for service. Overall, I'm not sure I'd go out of my way to go back, but wouldn't mind trying another one of their specialty drinks if I'm around the area. read more

The setting is interesting and a Heaven for Manga lovers!!! read more

I see a lot of reviews about the service and I will say it definitely depends who you get which shouldn't be the case but sometimes you'll get someone sweet and other times you'll get someone monotone and wants you to know your order and pay. The drinks are high quality and they seem to know what they're doing which shows because of how consistent they've been with their flavors every time I've gone. We've had the red velvet latte, affogato, and lavender latte. Unfortunately whenever I order a honey lavender latte the main person I usually encounter states just lavender which never makes sense to me if the menu says it includes honey but is never made that way. In terms of ambiance, the place is very spacious and cozy. The plants are a gorgeous use of their high ceilings and the puzzles give it that fun vibe. They also have fish tank which is very cute just keep your kids away from tapping the glass! Overall I'd recommend but I do hope they continue to improve because it's definitely a gem with further potential! read more

Walked here from the Cupertino library after returning some books. There is parking here too. Really busy on a Saturday morning. The place itself is homey, cozy but a bit on the same side. I would not come here for a date or a hang. okay for studying or self work. One unisex restroom in the back. Plenty of drinks and some unique items as well such a red velvet latte. I got a black sesame latte with milk substitute and a Vietnamese coffee for my husband - to go. They don't take your name or give you a receipt - No caps given as well. They are all in the back by the restrooms. My black sesame was good but wish there was more black sesame flavor. My husband loves his Vietnamese coffee but obviously not as good as Viet - town. Would return. read more

Found this gem in the South Bay. Bitter + Sweet is such a fun coffee shop that's great for getting work done or catching up with friends. Their menu is extensive with some unique savory coffee flavors as well. I opted for the red velvet latte iced and it was delicious. The service was pretty fast as well. They do offer individual WiFi codes per customer, so be sure to ask. They have indoor and outdoor seating. There is also a lot of parking in the lot, so that isn't an issue.

This is a cute little coffee shop that has a comfy and cozy feel to it. They have quite a few coffees that I had never heard of--one being the red velvet latte. I had to try this one and it was absolutely delicious. I also tried the Southwestern panini. The texture of the chicken mixed with salsa reminded me of cat food. It had a good kick to it but I would have preferred whole chicken breast or even sliced chicken for the sandwich. If you'd like a place to chill for a bit then this is a cute place to come to. There's not too much seating, so it's pretty intimate--having loud/private conversations might be better to have outside or someplace larger as people would more than likely be able to overhear your conversation. read more
