Being a campus type of business that caters to mainly college students, the boba was decent. Not the best but not the worst. I like how transparent they are when it comes to how many grams of matcha is used per drink. Lots of seating and parking can be hit or miss. service was really great and interior settings was dark but pleasant. read more

Parking: Medium size plaza decent amount of spots. Lot was packed but there's also street parking. Interior: Limited seating for medium size groups unless you combine all the tables. Not too buys. Clean and nice ambiance. Good study spot. Wait Time: 5-10min for drinks. None to order. Items Order: 10/10 Black Sesame Coffee $6.75 - black sesame flavor was strong and on point! coffee was also strong and sweet and creamy. WOULD REC 6/10 Strawberry Matcha $7.5 - very mid overall with the matcha and strawberry compote. would not recommend the matcha here read more

A cute little cafe located right next to SFSU that has both coffee and matcha for everyone. I've tried them through DoorDash and going in person and I can say their drink quality stays the same for both. Unfortunately, the last time I went I felt like the matcha taste was too strong for my liking but my wife loves their drinks. Drinks come out fast and the baristas are super nice. If I need a quick pick me up this place would definitely be up for consideration read more

I've tried their drinks multiple times, but it's my first time visiting their actual location. I really really love their matcha here. The ratio of matcha to the other ingredients is perfectly curated to my taste. It doesn't taste like grass LOL. The banana cream matcha is mt favorite. Nothing too special with the ambiance inside. Overall, this is one of my go-to matcha spots. read more

Was looking for Vietnamese inspired coffee like Da Vien in SoCal and stumbled across Jade and Java. What drew me was the banana and sesame Vietnamese coffee, which isn't something sold at most coffee and boba shops in the peninsula. Ordered the pistachio and sesame Vietnamese coffee. The coffee is strong! Can customize ice and sweetness levels too. Parking can be a bit tight as the lot is shared among many other shops and it's in the middle of Park Merced so can be a bit difficult to find. Ordering was a breeze and if you have Snackpass, you can earn rewards by continuing to shop there. At 7-7.50 a drink, it's about in line with other boba/drinks now so I think it's good value. Especially bc the coffee is strong! Will come back to try other coffees and their matcha drinks too. Matcha drinks look to be handmade upon ordering (not mass produced ahead of time, which is nice to see) read more

Very cute little coffee shop near the SFSU campus, and open late, until 7 PM! They specialize in Vietnamese coffee and matcha drinks with unique cream toppings, and also have some fruit tea options. You order at one of two kiosks in the front. There are small tables and a bench for seating, and a bathroom in the back. I could see this being a nice place to catch up with friends over drinks! I got a banana cream matcha with oat milk ($0.80) and an extra shot of matcha ($3). Everyone else got Vietnamese coffee and between all of us we tried the salted cream, banana cream, and black sesame cream coffees. I loved my matcha and the banana cream had such strong banana flavor. I'm not sure if I would've liked it as much without the additional shot of matcha, but I'll have to try it next time. I also thought it was a pretty reasonable price for a matcha latte, starting at $7.25 - some places are getting up to $10+. I'm not a coffee person, but heard that the coffees were strong and flavorful. Seems like a really nice addition to the area, especially for students. Would be even better if they could partner with a local bakery to offer some pastries, and a few more non-caffeinated options since there's only one on the current menu. read more

Such a cute cafe along the string of other stores in a plaza! I ordered the Banana Matcha Latte which was delish! I'm glad that there were actual banana chunks in the drink which gave the drink a nice additional texture. The foam of the latte was also perfectly frothed. Service was quick and the store was clean. Will definitely be back to try their other drinks! read more

I really enjoyed their sea salt Vietnamese coffee (ca phe muoi). I have been looking for this since coming back from my Vietnam trip. It's easily found in Orange County; less of a common offering in SF Bay Area, so I was happy to see that this place had it. I got one with less ice and regular sweetness, which I thought was too sweet but was better after the ice melted a bit. I also got one no ice and less sweet and I added some milk when I got home to thin out the strong coffee a bit. However, this sacrifices on the salted flavor. I think my ideal would be regular sweet and regular ice as intended. We also tried their creme brulee matcha which was fine. Not a super strong matcha flavor and leaned more watery than creamy. It would appease if you had a craving for a matcha latte though. Could not really make out the creme brulee flavor so I would maybe just do a regular matcha latte or another one of their flavored matcha drinks. This is located near SF state. There is a parking lot available. Somewhat limited seating, but I'm not sure how busy they get. read more

I've been here twice within the span of a week! I love how Jade & Java is a straightforward cafe that delivers on their drinks while also having a cute, unique aesthetic. I ordered the black sesame matcha both times I went...the black sesame cream top is just too delicious! It does make the drink more creamy for those who prefer something less of that. I took a sip of their vietnamese coffee and that tastes great as well, I would definitely order that in the future. Service was friendly and fast. I really like the car/minimal decor they have going on in there with the natural lightning and plants. It's located in a plaza so there's convenient parking available. read more

Heard about this place through social media and decided to stop by on a Sunday afternoon. It wasn't busy, and we got our drinks pretty quickly. The matcha itself was good, creamy, smooth, and had a strong, authentic matcha flavor. The cream toppings were a bit inconsistent. The crème brûlée topping didn't fully cover the surface of the drink. It was mostly a small patch in the center over the ice and only lightly torched. That drink also didn't reach the top of the cup, and I thought the cream would fill the rest, but it didn't like the black sesame topping did. Flavor wise, everything tasted as expected, and the matcha was definitely well made. I'd come back to try their Vietnamese coffee and other matcha drinks next time. I can see this spot becoming really popular, especially being so close to SFSU. There are a few seating options inside, so it's also a nice place to hang out and relax for a bit. read more

I finally stopped by over the weekend with my friend, and we got some tea and hung out at the café for a while. I got the matcha with coconut, which I was excited to see they had on their menu. The matcha was really high quality, and it was perfect mixed with the coconut milk. A solid 5/5 drink. read more

Cute new cafe near Stonestown & SFSU. Grabbed a drink after a tasty hotpot session at Mumu. There were so many good options between fruit tea, matcha and viet coffee. It was so hard to choose what I wanted. I eventually went with the coconut matcha and banana viet coffee. Looking for a WAKE ME UP drink?! That viet coffee is super strong and tasty pair it with one of the creme toppings gives it a good balance. Highly recommend for those coffee/viet coffee lovers. Not feeling coffee? Coconut matcha is right up your alley! Matcha flavor is definitely strong. Have a sweeter palette ? I recommend adding sugar or a topping to balance it out. Will be back soon again to try more of their matches, coffees and teas! Friendly and welcoming staff to help with any questions you have. read more

Cute new cafe hidden in park merced. They offer an extensive menu of specialty matchas and vietnamese coffee too. When you walk in, there are 2 self order kiosks to greet you. The issue I had was choosing a drink. I ended up getting the salted cream matcha, but I want to come by and try the creme brulee and black sesame cream matchas. Alas I had to control myself and did not order 2 drinks this time. The matcha was good, it tasted like something I would make at home. The salted cream was good. If they offered a bigger size I would probably order it, I drank my drink so fast. Will be back soon, parking was fairly easy and drink came out quickly. read more

New Boba Shop on the Block Car themed cafe! The owners organizes weekly car meets in the parking lot. Owners are nice and makes the boba themselves. Vibe: Slow R&B, hip hop, more masculine, young. Matcha and Viet Coffee specialty Self-order on two screens or they are able to help you too No hot food but they have a small fridge with cakes, packaged waffles, packaged muffins and sodas. Corners chips. So great to have a new boba shop around here. Pink velvet drink was good. The fruit teas are popular and sell out quickly. Hot tip: even after asking for less sweet it was still very sweet! If you don't like too sweet make sure to let them know. Lots of seating. It's black walls so it feels dark. read more

I was so excited to see another matcha spot open up near SFSU! The space has great seating, a killer playlist, and plenty of drink options to suit everyone's taste. I tried the Strawberry Matcha and the SunsetSki. The SunsetSki was incredibly refreshing, definitely one I'll be coming back for. The Strawberry Matcha had the perfect amount of sweetness and was beautifully balanced. I can't wait to come back and try more drinks to see which one is my ultimate favorite. I saw they had some snacks like chips and muffins but wondering if they will expand their snack menu or serve food in the future. Solid spot and I will definitely be returning :) read more

I like their matcha, ordered strawberry matcha with an extra shot and I really felt the difference! The banana Vietnamese coffee is good. I like their Vietnamese coffee but the banana cream sits at the top. You can leave it and try it or mix it but either way its a mild flavor. Wish there was an option to order more banana cream. Despite ordering at the machine, the baristas were soooo friendly... So much friendlier than anyone in the area... I love the cute girlies who were working on the day I went. Ambiance is clean and modern. I would go again, but I assume there is no reliable parking at peak times. It won't stop me though! Since I ordered both of strawberry matcha and banana Vietnamese coffee, when i finished both halfway, I mixed it and made some delicious slop. I think it was fun to drink but the caffeine was so strong I was tweaking out. 10/10 would do this all again read more

Loved each of our drinks. We got the matcha with banana cream, Vietnamese coffee with sea salt cream, manglow, and Vietnamese coffee with banana cream. The banana cream taste shows up when mixed in all the drinks we got and gave each drink an upgraded taste. Very sweet but yummy. The Vietnamese coffee is strong. The Manglow was yummy, strong milk taste but the mango jelly sweetness balanced it. Matcha was like any other matcha drink but the banana cream enhanced the drink flavor so well. Overall, I recommend this place to try! read more

Just moved to the area and happened to stumble upon this gem while returning my U-Haul next door. I love how cozy this lil spot is. Right next to SF state too! The drink menu was definitely captivating as it had the staples for sure- variations of the matcha latte, variations of Vietnamese coffee, and then fruity milk teas. Yum! I ordered the strawberry milk tea, aka "Pink Velvet". Super refreshing, not too sweet. Little pink jellies swimming in there also. In fact, I was writing this review the first time I came into this cafe and never finished it. I'm back again today and finally posting this! 10/10, gotta try Jade & Java!

Edit: please update the rewards app. The shop isn't even on Snackpass I FREAKING love this place. I visit my girlfriend over in Orange County, Westminster area every few months. It's a very Vietnamese prominent area so they have A LOT of Vietnamese coffee drink spots. I always went to 2 specific coffee spots for iced Vietnamese coffee - DaVien and Airoma. Those spots are SOOOO good that I'm always sad coming back home to SF because I could never find a spot that reminds me of those 2 places. I literally would order Vietnamese coffee from any spot if it's on the menu just to hope it's good. Decided to give Jade & Java cafe by accident when looking for lunch spots. Pricing is about $6-7 per drink. They're about Starbucks grande size. I will say compared to drinks in OC, I was getting Starbucks venti sized cups for $7 so it's a bit on the pricey side. Albeit, the flavor is very similar and hits the spot for me. I just wish one day they'll offer bigger size drinks as an option. Location is very easy to get to. Located a little bit past SF STATE within Park Merced. It's located in a small strip of area that has other food spots. There's a parking lot and also street parking right next to it. I've came here maybe 4 times now and never had trouble finding parking The kind of Vietnamese coffee I like is one where it isn't majority ice like most places. It isn't watered down. It's not just black coffee with condensed milk. It's exactly like this place has it where it's still pretty strong like Vietnamese coffee is known for but has a good amount of sweet to it. I love that there's a variety of options like DaVien and Airoma too. They have a crème brulee one which reminds me of the egg cream coffee, sea salt cream, black sesame, and banana cream. Would love to see a matcha cream one. PLEASE PLEASE Offer bigger size drinks and use small, crushed ice to get a nice icey, coffee sip each time for my big back indulgences read more

There's a tablet off to the side that you can use to order your drinks. If the line gets too long, a cashier tends to jump in to help with orders. I do appreciate the screen in the corner that shows your order number so you're able to track it. I usually opt for their Coconut Mango Boom and it's never too sweet. Overall, I think the experience is decent if you order ahead. It seems less worth it when there's a long wait. There's also not a lot of seats inside so it feels more of a order and go kind of place.

Would opt for lower than 75% sweet next time, 50% might be better - The coconut with black tea and cheese foam is really good. The coconut water mixes nicely with the cheese foam. You can't taste too much of the tea though, but the drink itself is still really good (and also unique- don't see too many coconut based drinks here)

This is my first time eating in-person as they close at 7pm. My basil popcorn chicken $7.75 didn't contain basil. They used to include it. The combo sandwich $10.75 was served on Dutch crunch bread. On the bread, I suspect they use a garlic mayo spread to make the sandwich less dry. The sandwiches are smaller now. My photos from years ago showed them to be about twice as high. For dessert, I wanted to try their snowball toast. Unfortunately, no ice cream was available. It took about 20 minutes for my food to come out at around 6:20pm. The young people that work here are attentive. Service has gotten faster since they put in the ordering kiosk. They play Mandarin Chinese music on the speakers. That made it annoying to eat in-person even though I'm Chinese.

I've had Cherry Blossom Bakery egg tarts before and really enjoyed them! The crust is perfectly flaky and the custard is lightly sweetened. SO YUMMY!!! Great as a dessert or snack! I've had my share of egg tarts and I think the ones Cherry Blossom makes are one of my favorites in the city. The lady who helped me was nice and efficient. There were many other delectable pastries in the display case, but I intentionally came for egg tarts. I'll have to come back and try other things, but I would still include egg tarts! I ordered a few egg tarts this time. I ate one fresh, but stored some in the refrigerator for a few days in an air tight container. They still looked good after 2 days! Amazing!! Many times I would do the same with other egg tarts from other bakeries and the next day, you would see a crack in the middle, wrinkly custard, or the custard would peel away from the crust. But no problem with these! They store well and taste heavenly! Oh, and they were $2 each. 5 stars!!!

The ambiance is not what you come here for anyways, so I'm not going to speak on that. Becuase it's not like you will sit down to enjoy Boba lol. The people that work here are all very knowledgeable, nice, and actually greets people! If your in the area, I would recommend them. It's not because they are the main shop here, but their flavours are on point. Thank you NAMELESS TEA AND COFFEE!

Before going to the one down in Westminster, more than a decade had passed since the last time I…read morehad stopped into a Bambu. Given that, it doesn't escape me that it took just a matter of months for my next visit to happen again. No real rhyme or reason as to why it didn't take nearly as long this time, but I'd be lying if I said that the Ube Halo Halo we tried didn't have something to do with it. While it ultimately wasn't what we ordered, the memory of what we had definitely got us excited to try more when my friends suggested coming here! Compared to the location over on Geary (and the one in Westminster, for what it's worth), this Bambu is better in just about every way. Sure, it helps that it's still relatively new (they opened about eight months ago?), but it's undoubtedly cleaner, feels a whole lot brighter, is a bit more conveniently located, and, most significantly, has way more parking available nearby. As for the menu, it had pretty much all of the usual offerings that you'd expect to find at any of their locations - che desserts, milk tea, fruit teas, waffles, macarons, and Vietnamese coffee. -- MANGO HALO HALO - Green Jello Base with Coconut Meat, Coconut Milk, Red Tapioca, Jackfruit, Egg Pudding, Crystal Boba, Mango Jelly, Pandan Jelly, Nata de Coco, and Topped with Mango Ice Cream While it didn't impress quite like the Ube Halo Halo did, this was still really good. Between all of the mangos (vs ube) and jellies, this felt a lot fruitier and lighter. However, it also didn't feel quite as creamy as the Ube one did, which I kind of missed. -- VIETNAMESE EGG COFFEE Sadly, the coffee is a pre-made mix, so they weren't able to modify the sweetness, but I appreciate that they added plain coffee to help dilute it. Even then, though, this ended up being really sweet. Loved how creamy the egg foam made this, though. Despite how I genuinely like this particular Bambu, I don't know how often I would come back since I don't typically crave che desserts and other places usually come to mind first when I think of where to get milk tea. However, should the urge or occasion arise to go to a Bambu again, I wouldn't hesitate to come back to this one, especially so that I can give their Yoonami Drinks, Smoothies, and Ube Mochi Waffle a try!

When we pointed it out, she did not offer to correct the charge or issue a refund. On top of that, the service was very poor. She walked away before I could place my order, handed him his drink, then walked away again. She stood near the food being cooked without acknowledging me, and after giving him his order, simply said "have a good day" and walked off again leaving me without even placing any order. Because of this experience, I chose not to order anything and left, as I felt completely ignored. Unfortunately, I won't be returning and I now understand why there was no costumers .

Update: I woke up this morning with a very sensitive stomach. I ate some chicken nibblers and drank the Oreo boba tea I ordered along with them and have been making frequent trips to the restroom. I really shouldn't have because everything must have been cross contaminated. With the way the shrimp was delivered, I have reason to believe this was an intentional decision made by one of the employees. The food was delivered as pictured which means that somebody saw the undercooked shrimp, put it in the container, shrugged, and sent it out for delivery. This place has people working that don't care about anyones well being. Never order from this place. I never will again.
