    Yesterday I stopped by Philz Coffee downtown Burlingame to try their new seasonal Salted Butterscotch drink. The place was busy when I went, so service was a little slow, but honestly that's kinda expected during busy hours. I appreciated that they have wifi and plenty of people were working there, including me. The coffee was, hmm good ?!? I mean I personally didn't really get much of the "salted" flavor from it, just sweetness. But anyway, this is still a great place to work or catch up with friends.

    They have the best chai tea latte ever make sure you order it with honey and lots of spice. This location makes it the best I've been here many times over the years with my son-in-law always turns out really well.

    Pick up and order counters

    Love this Phil'z location! Located just around the corner from Burlingame Ave, this spot is almost always poppin'. For those who haven't been, you order with a person at a counter, then wait for your drink to be made. They don't do fancy lattes or anything here, just classic pour over style coffee. The differences come in the flavor notes in the bean blend(s) you choose. You can also mix more than one blend -- my favorite combo is the Philtered Soul & Tesora! You also get to select your "sweet and creaminess" levels. They have a few milk alternatives, as well as sugar alternatives like honey. SEATING; Inside along the pick-up counter, they only have a couple small tables and a couch that is often used for people to wait for their order. There are a few more tables and some window seating up front by the door and register. Outside, there are three longer tables and chairs to enjoy your coffee and people watch. They are big enough to accommodate groups of 4-6, or a couple smaller groups sharing. COFFEE: They have all the standard options for the Phil'z menu, plus new and seasonal items. They sell bags of coffee grounds and mugs as well, so you can enjoy it at home. You can get most drinks hot or iced, and they even have some fun "Featured Creations" such as the Iced Mint Mojito, Gingersnap, Iced Coffee Rosé, and Cold Brew. They also sell large bottles of their cold brew to take to-go. We've had them in our fridge on several occasions over the years! FOOD: They have a variety of pastries and sweets, along with more hearty options such as burritos and fancy toasts! I've tried many of their food items, and never been disappointed. SERVICE: Everybody I've ever interacted with has been very friendly. The people behind the bar making the coffee work super hard, yet always want to make sure your order is to your liking. The pour over style can take longer than what people are used to, so be patient, especially if it's busy. OVERALL: This is a great spot to grab some coffee and hang, or take your cup for a stroll up and down Burlingame Ave for some quality people (and dog!) watching. They also have an App that you can use to order ahead and have your coffee ready when you arrive! Shout out to the awesome staff here, I look forward to my visits each time! IG: @bbnem.eats

    One of my favorite coffee places from the Bay Area. Really enjoy this location for taking a stroll through downtown Burlingame. this particular location has some limited, indoor seating, but also some outdoor tables. Free WiFi and bathroom with baby changing table. My go to drink: iced mint Mojito (half oat milk, half creamy, keep it sweet).

    It was definitely not "made with love"

    Usually this place does a good coffee. Not sure what happened today. I ordered the Philtered Soul (hot). The coffee tasted bitter like it was a day old coffee. But it also had an "oil swirl" in the coffee itself.

    I don't mind spending a few more dollars and waiting longer for a good coffee. Philz makes each cup to order and they are good at customizing. I'm usually in a hurry or impatient and get a fast to go drink but sometimes I like to get something better and relax. Good place to hang out.

    First time at Maison Alyzée was on the evening of Thursday, October 26, 2023. Ray, Pete and I…read morewalked in shortly before 9 PM for some caffeine after our dinner event at Rise Pizzeria, just down the street. Maison Alyzée is a French fine pastry bakery café located on downtown Burlingame's main strip. Dedicated to providing customers with a Parisian escape through handcrafted elegant pastries and artisanal breads, the bake shoppe doubles as pâtisserie and boulangerie, priding itself on meticulous attention to detail. Upon entry, we were welcomed by a brightly lit and very clean venue. Ray and I were immediately drawn to the beautiful marble-topped white counter that encased a gorgeous variety of exquisite treats. The commitment to the elegance of French culture and modern creativity were evident in every luxurious pastry and cake on display. Maison Alyzée is an order-at-the-counter establishment, so we made our purchase with a friendly staff member at the register. Unfortunately, we were told that espresso drinks were no longer available that night since the staff had already begun cleaning the machines. Ok....I never understand businesses that start shutting down things before closing time. This just shows customers that team convenience of closing shop quickly takes precedence over customer experience, essentially omitting availability of items from the menu while they are still open. For this reason, I am docking a star. Luckily, they still had some cold brew available, so I ordered a Lavender Cold Brew with oat milk. Heads-up: Plant-based milks like almond and oat milk incur a $0.75 surcharge. I wish that the lavender was more like a simple syrup, so that the flavour was sweeter and less sharp. Maison Alyzée also offers a selection of breakfast, lunch, and brunch options. I definitely need to return to try one or two or a few of their ostentatious delights.

    Living on the Peninsula, we have plenty of options for exceptional coffee and pastries, which is…read morewhy the overall experience matters. I visited Maison Alyzee in Burlingame on a Saturday morning, and while the pastries were good, the service felt cold and dismissive. There was no rush, yet the staff was not warm or welcoming. I asked for my raisin au pain to be warmed up, and after waiting outside for about 10 minutes with no update, I went back in to ask. The response was "It's in the oven" was delivered rudely, as though my simple question was an inconvenience. Even when a café is busy, basic courtesy and communication should not be optional. Good food deserves to be matched by good hospitality.
