    Coffee for sale
    Veronica L.

    Wish they still had a hojicha latte - apparently discontinued 2 years ago. Trying their "sweet" latte w half caffeine espresso and oat milk which the order taker said is not overly sweet - and it's not! Just right level of sweet. Also picked up some of their Bella Donovan coffee to bring into the office. Clean counter and fully stocked with all you need for a caffeine boost.

    Great blue bottle location except there's not much parking in this area . I got the caffe latte and the sweet latte . They were pretty busy even though it was a rainy day and the drinks took about 10 min to come out . My caffe latte was great !!! Blue bottle was the place that got me hooked onto oat milk and the oat milk coffee latte was delicious .

    Iced Sweet Latte

    Stopped by this Blue Bottle location during my commute home for a caffeine fix. Great corner location with interesting architecture that really stands out. The area is very walkable with good foot traffic, and I noticed a comic store across the street. Parking in the back was convenient, though you do need to pay the meter. The interior design is impressive - the countertops looked super cool and gave the place a modern vibe. The barista taking our order was nice. Super friendly and took the time to explain how the sweet latte is made when I asked. Really appreciated his knowledge and willingness to help. The latte itself was delicious as always - I get the sweet latte with oat milk (which is their default option) and typically add a bit more simple syrup to make it sweeter. The table we chose to sit and wait at was dirty with food residue all over it, which was disappointing given the otherwise nice atmosphere. Despite the cleanliness issue, the excellent service, great coffee, and cool location make this a solid choice. I'd definitely come back if I'm ever in the same situation needing caffeine during my commute home.

    Latte and Nola Shakerato
    Jessica W.

    Very pleasant experience here. This is the location in the Oakland Hills, the nicer part. Drinks are fantastic as always no matter what location I go to. I finally saw their instant espresso here and had to snag a bottle to try since I've been told what quality it is. I was hesitant to stop by one in Oakland before the game but glad we did.

    I have been to several others Blue Bottle locations. The interior in Piedmont needs to be upgraded. Exterior has no logo. You would be passing by the shop not even realizing it is Blue Bottle. It looks like your neighborhood donut shop. People mostly take out here. For high end coffee, people do want to sit and sip. Coffee shops in the US are lacking of ambiance. In other countries, drinking coffee is a way to live. Something you enjoy and represent.

    hot matcha instead of iced/ no nola :(
    Sofia G.

    Showed up waiting for my mobile order and extra 5 minutes, until I asked about it only to be told that they no longer do the Nola (why have it available online?). When i reordered for an iced matcha latte instead, I got some attitude and a hot matcha. I understand not being in a good mood, I get it, but then on top of that I didn't recieve my order twice. The store wasn't very busy either, so it wasn't like it was rushed. Won't be coming back

    What looks like dead bugs and more trash

    How does this place pass health inspections, trash left out in the open. Staff doesn't even attempt to care that the place is an absolute mess. Thankfully Piedmont has many more coffee options available.

    Cafe mocha...so good!!

    This place is pretty busy but always worth the wait. I always love the Cafe Mocha, next time I will try the Matcha. I heard it's pretty good!!

    Hojicha Latte With Oat Milk
    Angelica L.

    Came here and ordered the hojicha latte with oat milk per a friend's recommendation. We waited for a while before the barista asked us if we were waiting for our drinks. We said yes so he checked and it seemed like they didn't receive our order. He made our drinks right away and gave us 2 free drink coupons which was really nice of him. The hojicha latte was a bit grainy, pretty bland, & just didn't have the right taste. My stomach started to feel weird as I was drinking it. My husband took 1 sip and also felt the same. I'm sticking to coffee moving forward.

I loved the ambiance, it felt we was in another country. The place was packed I have no idea where everyone parked haha. Very hard to find parking. The Adeni Chai I had was wonderful and I would get again. The lemon pastries I had were good & I would possibly get again. Both cheese pastries & meat pocket I didnt care for so much. I undetstand they are an acquired taste but me being Middle Eastern we have our own versions and I think that's why I didn't like as much. I would definitely go back and try more sweet pastries. They had a large selection I couldn't try them all haha. I would love to try more tea and coffee options as well. Go and try out several different pastries and discover what you like. It's cheaper than buying an airplane ticket to try another countries culture and delights. They also have outside seating which is especially nice on a beautiful day. Pro tip: take an Uber if you can. Parking is hard to get.

We went mainly for drinks and tried a latte, tiramisu latte, and a Spanish latte. The tiramisu latte and Spanish latte were both really good and definitely my favorites. Smooth, flavorful, and not overly sweet. You can tell the coffee quality is solid. We also tried the matcha drinks in vanilla and strawberry. I liked the strawberry matcha more. It comes unsweetened, so I asked for it to be sweetened and it was great after that. The vanilla matcha was fine too, just not my top pick. They're also dropping a new Ramadan drink soon, a date latte, which sounds really good and I'll probably come back just to try that. Overall, great drinks and a nice place to hang out.

Ordered the Ginger Honey Jobani as a hot drink, Biscoff Milkcake, Honeycomb, and a Beef Fatayer. There were several kinds of milkcakes which would have the texture like a tres leches cake. The Honeycomb had pockets of cream cheese and was drizzles with honey. The Meat Fatayer is like an empanada. The food and drink were very tasty.
