    chocolate hazelnut lattes
    Andre M.

    Came here because of the Snoopy collab. They had a bunch of Snoopy merch, decorations and drinks, which were chocolate hazelnut. I got the chocolate hazelnut coffee latte and it was honestly okay. The chocolate hazelnut flavor was very overpowering, making it more of a dessert milk drink than coffee. I'm happy that I tried it but for the price I wouldn't be back. I ordered through a kiosk which was nice. They have a parking garage next door which made parking easy.

    May 2026: Iced Pear Matcha Latte & Iced Gauva Matcha Latte
    Tiffany N.

    Always a favorite of mine, but this was my first time visiting this California location after previously trying their Hawaii shop. The café is located beneath an apartment complex, and there's guest parking available in the underground garage, which made visiting pretty convenient on a Friday afternoon. I will note there may be limited parking depending on the hours you visit. There's plenty of seating inside along with a restroom so I can see myself working here for a long time. They also have self-ordering kiosks available, although one was out of service during my visit and the screen was a bit sticky. Service was quick, and our drinks came out surprisingly fast. I visited during their seasonal pear series, so I had to try the Pear Matcha since no other places really have it. It was light, refreshing, and the pear added just the right amount of natural sweetness without overpowering the matcha. My cousin ordered the Guava Matcha, which I've also tried before at their Hawaii location, and it's still one of my favorites. Overall, another great experience and a reminder of why this spot remains one of my go-to matcha places. I'm hoping the Pear Matcha becomes a permanent menu item because it was that good!

    3 chocolate hazelnut lattes & 1 blended chocolate hazelnut matcha
    emily d.

    Went with some friends to celebrate their Peanuts release, but came late and no more Snoopy!! Parking can be a bit tricky, but street or garage parking is plentiful and just a short walk away. Cute interior with two self service kiosks and was so excited to try this newer spot- got 3 chocolate hazelnut lattes (one with oat) & 1 blended chocolate hazelnut matcha (the rest whole milk). I think the foam was left off one drink, but they all still tasted the same- on the milkier side and pretty sweet. The matcha was solid as well, but the latte may have a stronger overall flavor as the blended drink ended up being more ice than I was hoping.

    Pear Matcha, Guava Matcha, and Strawberry Cloud Matcha

    Went here after a long trip! Parking is tough and under an apartment complex. Staff here are super friendly and chill. It's very clean and spotless. We ordered: - Guava Matcha - Pear Matcha Latte - Strawberry Cloud Matcha Everything was delicious and we finished our drink super quick.

    We stopped by to try out the drinks here, and we were pleasantly surprised by the variety of options. We both enjoyed our drinks and plan to come back. Definitely a good spot to meetup with a small group of friends.

    Hoijcha drink
    Kris C.

    Love always coming here and trying something new on the menu. By far one of my fav matcha drink places, but I def enjoy their hoijcha drink too! I love when they had the BT21 collab and they'll soon have a snoopy! One of the workers there Denise, so sweet and a genius barista! Check her out!

    Had this bookmarked for awhile. Strawberry chrysanthemum tea and yuzu dragonfruit tea were just okay. I feel that the dragonfruit was syrup and not the real thing for the pricey drink. The strawberry was overpowered by the chrysanthemum so it wasn't balanced. Free parking downstairs is a really big plus because there's literally no street parking. Service was awesome and friendly.

    Junbi has quickly become one of my favorite matcha spots in the Bay Area! JUNBI IS UNDERRATED AND IT NEEDS TO BE TALKED ABOUT MORE!! With so many matcha options around San Jose and nearby cities, this location still stands out to me for its smooth texture, balanced flavors, and consistent quality. The drinks are not overly sweet and feel thoughtfully crafted. I love how they use the RIGHT type of matcha, that pairs well with their flavors.. if you know what I mean, then you know! For the variety of items I tried, this is what I got: Strawberry jasmine green tea Guava matcha latte Blueberry lavender matcha Persimmon matcha with persimmon cold foam Mango matcha Strawberry matcha Matcha cold brew Guava cold brew Strawberry refresher Strawberry hojicha latte Rice ball flight with snow crab, salmon, and mentaiko My favorite was definitely the blueberry lavender matcha. Their cold foam series is honestly very good and adds a fun twist to traditional matcha drinks. I also really enjoyed the persimmon matcha with persimmon cold foam, which tasted refreshing and unique. From what I understand, this flavor may be limited or seasonal, so it is worth asking staff if it is still available. One item that genuinely surprised me was the Mango Mission soft serve. It is a matcha vanilla swirl soft serve topped with mango purée and chia pudding. It was very refreshing, unique, and the chia pudding added a texture I did not expect but ended up really enjoying! The space itself is very beautiful and very clean, making it a comfortable place to sit and enjoy your drink or dessert. They also sell merchandise and matcha products in store, which adds to the overall experience. The staff were super nice and attentive throughout the visit! Overall, this is still one of my favorite matcha spots that I would gladly return to!

    Hojicha latte
    Karina S.

    Loved the hojicha latte here! Got it iced on a hot day and have been craving a good hojicha latte for a while-I do wish there were more cafes that served hojicha along with matcha in the South Bay. Also tried some of the vanilla matcha swirl soft serve, which was quite sweet so I would probably try just the matcha next time. The inside was a bit packed and it was hard to find a table that would comfortably seat 5 people so we squeezed together at a smaller table. The parking structure is a bit confusing but nice that there is a garage available for retail parking.

    hojicha
    Jennifer

    This place is a favorite amongst many for good reason! They use high quality matcha (they have uji matcha ), hojicha, and loose leaf's tea. Truly an option for any milk tea lover. Taste: I get 0% sugar and the hojicha did not disappoint! They use fresh milk and strong tea, so I found myself finishing my drink quickly. I also really liked their vanilla ice cream. Parking: Very convenient underground parking lot right by them. Service: They've always been kind of accommodating. Truly a job to interact with!

    Flight of three rice balls
    Hong P.

    I had a little time after work and decided to try this place per recommendation from a friend. It wasn't busy and walked up to the kiosk to order. I selected the Madagascar Vanilla Bean Cold Brew with organic soy milk and a flight of all three of their rice balls to go. The wait was only a few minutes and I was able to get my drink and food. The matcha was delicious and with the vanilla bean just sweet enough without it being too much. Love the combination of flavors to balance out the bitterness of matcha with the vanilla bean. The rice balls I opened up when I got home and they put the nori into a separate bag and the each rice ball was wrapped up in plastic. I had a mentaiko, snow crab, and salmon rice balls. Once assembled they were absolutely delicious and still warm. Mentaiko was salty but so savory at the same time, the snow crab was the best since it wasn't super salty but also had some sweetness to it, and the salmon was really good. Honestly I would have loved another flight of these rice balls. Will come back to try some of the other drink options.

    Quick update: went back to Junbi for some delicious soft serve, and they are collaborating with Snoopy! They have cute Junbi/Snoopy merch and adorable Snoopy photo ops! Junbi is a cute matcha/coffee shop! The space is cozy and has chairs and tables to enjoy your beverage/treat. I ordered a Matcha Affogato soft serve with coconut flakes - the matcha was swirl with vanilla. The matcha is delicious and light, and the small chunks of ice give a great texture! The service was quick and the staff were welcoming!

    Hojicha Latte
    Leslie C.

    Cute cafe that serves a variety of matcha and other tea drinks. They also have ice cream! There's underground retail parking. The stairway leads right next to the entrance of the store. You can order online or at the kiosk in store. Staff is quick to make drinks and are knowledgeable about drinks being served. Any cold drinks ordered via their online website are put into a fridge while awaiting pickup. I felt the hojicha was a bit watered down and small for its price point. The ganbaru ceremonial matcha cold brew was not extremely rich in taste and also had a high price point for size. Overall, drinks are cute to look at and the teas are just ok. I did stay a while to do work using the wifi. The shop itself was comfortable and had electrical outlets for plugging my charger into. The restroom was out of order during my visit, but guests were allowed to use the retail parking's restroom (which was extremely clean and well kept!). It's a nice cafe to catch up with friends, get work done, and have a quick drink. Would love to come back to try their other desserts or teas!

Another awesome flavor is their mango; It's like literally biting through an actual mango. So good! I'd like to give Bibek, the employee, a huge shout out for taking his time with giving me samples. He's a nice and enthusiastic person who loves showcasing the flavors of Pints of Joy. I'd definitely come back again for a scoop!

Honestly there were so many options in the menu that looked really yummy, so you could order anything and come out satisfied. The service is really amazing. I asked them to make alot of adjustments for me and the waiter was really nice and accommodating, and the food turned out great!

We always ask for a table with chairs because I have back problems and can't sit in their totally worn booths and the host has never had a problem with that request. But yesterday the regular host wasn't there and we were told they were busy and we had to sit at the counter or in a booth because they didn't want to put us the two of us at a table for four (there were two tables available). We waited for nearly ten minutes and when I asked again if we could sit at one of the tables was almost rudely told no, they were busy. So we left and went to Joanie's on California Avenue. They were also busy but immediately seated us and we had a much better lunch. Sometimes it's good to change things up as we'd forgotten how kind and attentive all the of the staff are at Joanie's and how much better the food was. And both of our plates of food came out hot and perfectly cooked which doesn't always happen at the Creamery. I guess we just eat there for the memories. My husband said none of the staff at the Creamery seem happy except for the host so if we don't see him seating the guests, we'll just go to Joanie's.

I wonder if the rest of the cakes have gotten super sweet too? We loved this place due to balanced desserts - deducted one star due to the sweet cake I also deducted another star based on my experience with their croissants. The plain croissant is surprisingly sweet, seemingly due to a sugar glaze or syrup on top (see images) and it tasted old but a plain croissant should be buttery, flaky, and crispy, not coated in something sugary and it wasn't crispy at all. The thing is, a well-made plain croissant should have a natural amber sheen just from the egg wash, and there is no need for sugary syrup, but their croissants have a clear thick glaze that is pooled and caramelized on top, so it felt like eating a sweet bread. I had high hopes given how consistently great their cakes have been, so hopefully it's something they revisit and do better on. Their service history has been great, but as the years have gone by, it's not as friendly or inviting as it used to be (the place has gotten popular over the years, so we have noticed a few things are sliding downhill, so I am curious how this place will be over the next few years). The interior is small (no seating inside, but they do have a few tables outside), we have always taken it to go from here. I am hoping the rest of the cakes aren't sweet, we will try them and will update the review again

Pinkberry is a counter-service frozen yogurt shoppe located on the El Camino Real side of the mall. The small, but clean venue is compact, likely with a maximum occupancy of about thirty persons in the customer area. At peak times, especially during warm days, the compact store can get crowded, which can impact customer comfort and the overall experience, especially with only about two to three tables available for outdoor seating. The menu offers refreshing COLD BREW FRUIT TEAS, fresh fruit smoothies, rotating seasonal flavours of frozen yogurt, and a variety of toppings from cereal to fruit to Nutella. While they have a wide selection of toppings, they stick to a small menu of froyo flavours, one of which is always dairy-free. Classic flavours that are permanent residents are original and chocolate hazelnut. If you are indecisive over which yogurt flavour(s) to choose, the staff will happily provide small samples to taste. Z and V almost always go for the chocolate hazelnut over the tart fruit flavours. The STRAWBERRY HIBISCUS COLD BREW FRUIT TEA is also a delightful drink.

When I followed up, instead of apologizing or trying to fix the situation, the cashier gave me attitude and claimed she "never saw me," which is simply not true. There was zero accountability. I was then told I could either wait another 15 minutes or take an empty cup with low-quality yogurt -- followed by "what do you want me to do about it?" That response was incredibly unprofessional and disrespectful. Mistakes happen, but the way this was handled with dismissiveness and no effort to make it right is unacceptable. As a loyal customer, I expected much better service and basic courtesy. I left feeling frustrated and disrespected, and I'll seriously reconsider coming back.
