    Cute place with good service. I wouldn't say it's the best coffee house but it's definitely not the worst. It opens earlier than the mall does so it comes in handy. The service is good, staff is friendly and quick. At this point I've tried a couple of their items: Iced Chai 3/10, it was suuuper strong even with less chai and more milk, I couldn't even drink it. It made my stomach hurt so bad. Iced Caramel Latte 8/10, yummy but I wish it had more of the espresso. Iced white mocha 9/10, very good and not too sweet Coconut crunch blend 10/10, it's like a frappe & had the perfect amount of coconut taste. Cheese Danish 10/10 very good. Chocolate croissant 6/10, nothing special. They also get a plus for their crushed ice :)

    A cute little coffee shop inside the mall! I'm so glad to be an early bird shopper so I can have the place to myself! Good latte and a nice stop the next time I go to the mall.

    What can I say, it's coffee in the mall. I had a plain cold brew which was fine, just nothing special. My wife had an iced pistachio latte which was also fine, but my iced pistachio at home has quite a bit more depth than this one. If you need a coffee, go for it. If you are more of a coffee snob, you should pass this and go somewhere down the street when you head back out of the mall.

    I never knew this place existed because of its location at the mall, but I'm glad I saw it! It's a great to see another coffee shop other than Starbucks ( no hate, I love me some Starbucks! ). The shop was very open with lots of seating. I ordered a medium extra hot white mocha, and it was delicious! They made it just right and it was extra hot. The service was fast and friendly.

    Iced caramel latte

    Such a hidden jem! I got the iced caramel latte and cheese pizza. I would say skip on the pizza, but the iced caramel latte was honestly one of the best lattes I've had in all of Pleasanton! Their sizes are very nice; fast service and a cute Little shop next to Macy's.

    I came in on a Friday during the day as I was in the area. At first I couldn't find it since I didn't realize it was in the mall! But it's a grind took over the old Starbucks location. Honestly an upgrade! I was helped quickly! I asked for a nutty latte and asked how it would be. They said it was really good so I got it! Sure enough, they were correct! I used to go to it's a grind when I lived in SoCal and I loved it! I'm not sure if it's the same company here, but it's just as good! I will totally come back! the environment is a bit loud to do work but I still was able to get some things done while waiting for my drink. Staff checked in after to ask if I liked it and they shared the WiFi with me. Overall, great experience and nice staff! I'll be back and you should give it a try!!

    It was my first time at this cute coffee shop today called "It's a grind coffee." I loved the atmosphere here when I first entered. There's beautiful artwork and then I later found out that you can purchase them. They also have a wall of wonderful cups for sale. I ordered my first ever beautiful mocha latte. It was a perfect temperature and beautifully executed. I also ordered lots of food for my family. The pizza and quesadilla were delicious and made in house. The service here was just very warm and family oriented. Thank you all for my wonderful first visit here. I'll definitely be back.

    Solid coffee shop in the mall. Was greeted warmly upon my arrival and had an espresso and brownie. Both were spot on. Worth stopping by when you are shopping at the mall.

    It's a Grind took the place of Starbucks across from the Apple Store in Stoneridge Mall! So excited to see a small business open in a central location, and there aren't other coffee shops in the mall. I didn't get to try anything yet, but I'm enticed by the food options (hello all day breakfast items) and 24oz as a default size for most drinks :o Holy moly. I'll need to sit down and work here to properly enjoy such a mammoth size lol (and imagine the caffeine!). There were cute mugs and tea that they also sold next to the checkout line. Tables available both inside and outside. I'm looking forward to my next visit!

    staff were friendly and helpful. they promptly took my order. I ordered a marble loaf and a large iced americano. both were phenomenal. this place is great for study even though it's inside a mall. I guess that's the only down side.

    This was my first time here. As I was looking at the menu, the cashier told me, "Everything is good," I just thought okay but taste is personal. I decided to order a bagel with avocado spread and tomatoes. Unfortunately, I didn't enjoy it, the bagel wasn't baked properly, and the bread had a raw flour taste as I chewed. I wouldn't order it again, and a bit pricy. On the bright side, the caramel blended coffee was excellent, for a small it was 7 something which I though was pricy.

    Cappuccino! Well done!

    Delah Coffee is an absolute gem. OPEN to 12!!!!…read more From the moment you walk in, you can tell they put a lot of thought into creating a beautiful, welcoming space. There's plenty of private parking, lots of indoor and outdoor seating, and the upscale décor makes it a great place to meet friends, get some work done, or simply enjoy a quiet cup of coffee. I ordered the Caramel Macchiato, and it was easily one of the best I've ever had. Rich espresso, perfectly balanced sweetness, and incredibly smooth. The pastries were just as impressive. The Pistachio Baklava Nest was generously filled with pistachios and had the perfect balance of crunch and sweetness. The Biscoff Cheese Danish was another standout, topped with Biscoff drizzle and a whole Biscoff cookie that made every bite even better. The café also has a large-screen TV and clean, separate men's and women's restrooms, making it comfortable for longer visits. Whether you're stopping by for your morning coffee or meeting up with friends, Delah Coffee delivers excellent drinks, delicious pastries, and an inviting atmosphere. I'll definitely be back to try more of their menu.

    Location: Super elegant, chilly, lots of seating, overall very good vibes. The workers were nice,…read moredidnt have to wait to order which was nice and overall very welcoming even when they accidently spilled my drink they remade it right away. Food: I went here twice and every single time I get any of the shwarmas or meat pies, its cold. Not just a little bit, the entire inside and bottom is soggy cold. It tastes good, super light not heavy, but the coldness makes it unappetizing unfortunatly. Additionally, the biscoff cake was super dry for a milk cake, but the taste is still nice. The saffron and caramel cake are nice though, milky, sweet, pairs well with a hot drink. Drink: Dissapointing. Matcha, Chai, Latte, Smoothie, Refresher--I tried them all and was dissapointing. Matcha (latte, mango, and strawberry) tasted insanely water, same with the adani chai--which is something I look forward to at every cafe. I think increasing the milk content in the chai could really improve it. Coffee was also done poorly (iced and hot). Refresher was alright, super sweet but other than that it wasnt bad. The only thing that was the best was the smoothie. The mangorabian tastes like a chocolatey mango lassi, you can't go wrong with a smoothie. Room for improvement on everything. Overall: Very nice elegant cafe that is perfect for hangouts and doing work, the food needs to get warmed up longer to avoid coldness and all the drinks need to be improved to increase the quality of the taste. Looking forward to the change!

They sell a ham & cheese croissant, coffees, teas, lattes, and four flavors of Japanese shaved ice called kakigori, which is the star of the show. The texture of this shaved ice is like fluffy cool softness that melts in your mouth. It is different than the traditional shaved ice and it is far from a snow cone. We ordered mango and kinako (a roasted soybean flour commonly mixed with sugar). These are large desserts! It takes time to make them since there are fresh ingredients inside. The mango was superb with little bits of fresh mango buried inside the ice. Not sickeningly sweet like the syrups most places use. My husband's had little mochi pieces mixed inside. It is common to add kinako to mochi so this was a bonus and a nice surprise. The kinako dessert was sweeter than the mango. Please know that there seems to be no a/c in this little shop but she has fans going. We went in the late afternoon so it was really uncomfortable inside. I had to leave and wait outside until the dessert was ready. It's hard to take these home as it melts fast so we sat inside to enjoy them. It was like heaven in my mouth and it cooled me down instantly. You must be patient as it takes at least 10-15 minutes for her to prepare the desserts but it is worth the wait! There is a small parking lot right in front shared with other businesses. Located right off the freeway behind Burger King.

Ordered my crème brûlée Matcha drink, a Blackpink drink(strawberry w/Oreo type cookies on the bottom), ham&cheese taiyaki and vanilla custard taiyaki. This place exceeded my expectation! My son loved his drink and he usually doesn't like anything because he's a teenager lol. My matcha was so good. The quality of matcha was much better than other bakeries I usually go to. They also caramelized the sugar on the crème brûlée. The taiyaki came in a cute box. My ham and cheese was scrumptious and savory. The store was small and cozy with a warm welcoming ambience.

Biscoff Matcha: 6.5/10 matcha w/ a cookie butter swirl, topped with/ vanilla cold foam, biscoff cookie and crumble on top. felt like a good amount of sweetness, got it at 50% for the sweet lvl. wished the matcha powder had a more earthy and strong flavor. cookie butter swirl was nice, would've been great w/ a concentrated syrup to enhance the flavor. Biscoff Latte: 7/10 similar to the matcha, latte has a rich coffee flavor. not so sweet, which i enjoyed. just the same w/ the cookie butter from the matcha. needs more of a strong flavor profile for the biscoff taste. Macarons: 8.5/10 love getting the macarons! we got the salted caramel, fruity pebble, and strawberry cheesecake. they were all great! however, i felt like the flavor didn't shine through for the strawberry cheesecake. highly recommend the salted caramel.
