    The sweet Thai tea is creamy and the boba nice and firm: [[HIGHLIGHT]]clean and bright location.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] A new place to get my boba fix

    The walk up to September Coffee
    Steven K.

    A pristine new coffee shop offering a variety of coffees and teas, September Coffee invites customers to have a drink and stay awhile. Tucked into the corner beside CVS Pharmacy, I drove by September Coffee several times before I managed to find it. While the new shop's sign hadn't gone up yet, the shop felt like a spot for customers to make themselves at home. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Soft music played and the space was lit up with decorated Christmas trees. Customers sat at the tables chatting and working[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. I was in the mood for a boba drink and I asked for a Thai Brulée with Boba, but I was told that the honey boba had run out for the day. So I ordered a Tiramisu Green Milk Tea instead. It wasn't long before my drink was ready to pick up and enjoy. My drink came in Tan-Cha cup, and I took a sip. The cheese cream was thick and luscious and the cocoa dust tickled my throat, capturing the essence of tiramisu very well. The green tea hinted at smooth, green matcha, but the sugar in the drink tilted the drink toward the sweet side. The sweetness crowded out the subtle matcha flavors more than I would have liked. Overall, not bad for a first drink. September Coffee has potential, and the first impressions for drinks could be better. I'll have to return in a few months to see how business is doing and try another drink then.

    I was warned that my drink would have chunky ice in it but when I drank it it was unsatisfying.

    My friend and I came here after having dinner nearby in the same plaza. I had been wanting to try this place out, so it was a perfect opportunity since we were already here. The location is tucked away in the corner, right next to CVS and a dentistry. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There's a cute stone sitting area right outside in front, if you're feeling the warm sunshine. If not, there's plenty of nice seating inside the shop.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] There's plenty of parking everywhere - even some Shell chargers for EV if you're lucky enough, right in front. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There's cute decoration everywhere with quiet Kpop music playing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] After quickly looking through the menu, I went to my go-to and got the brown sugar milk tea with half sugar and regular ice. My friend got the same. We sat down and waited a few minutes before our drinks came out. The drink was good - we both enjoyed our drinks. My friend forgot to ask to have no boba, but I was fine with mine. The boba pearls were a bit harder than I liked, but not too bad. There wasn't much flavor to them, tho. Overall, I liked the drink I got - I think I would have liked it better with less ice next time. The boba pearls were decent, but I'd skip them next time or maybe try one of the other toppings.

    Tried a "messy taro latte", which is one of their newer drinks. Nice drink! Fresh taro, good amount of boba and coconut milk (although it's not very coconut forward). For $6.50, excellent value. Would definitely return.

    Kind of hidden in the plaza, but it's a nice spot! Inside is clean and there are plenty of comfy chairs to sit in. There's also free wifi! I got the cocoa special with tiramisu foam because I had heard the foam was worth trying. The drink itself tasted like chocolate milk and the foam had a subtle saltiness. It was also caffeine free! I also love the caps they use, I almost dropped my drink in the car but the cap saved me from spilling!!

    Came over for a boba drink after having pho in same plaza. I had the salted cream vietnamese coffee and it was solid.

    Recently got the super fruit tea from Tan-Cha and it was a great refreshing treat! Love that it wasn't too sweet at 50% sugar and included large chunks of watermelon, strawberry and slices of lemon and orange. The tea flavor was also pretty strong and helped balance out the sweetness. This location has a plenty of seating which is great if you wanted to stay for a bit. We just got our drink to-go but will definitely be back.

    Middle: mango cremia, friends drinks on left and right both were said to be tasty and recommended
    Kristi H.

    tl;dr Tasty drinks, but menu felt a little limited in variety, especially for non caffinated drinks. Service on Sunday afternoon was quite slow, only one person was visibly working both cashier and drink making My party of 3 came in at 3 pm for boba on a hot Sunday afternoon for our first time trying out Tan-Cha. I chose the mango cremia drink, as it was too late in the day for me to have caffeine. Their caffeine free drinks are marked with CF, but there were only a few. I settled on the mango cremia not knowing what was in it other than fresh fruit and mango. The fruit was grapefruit or pomelo (not sure) and added a nice little zing in the otherwise very sweet and tasty mango drink - I had ordered it less sweet to begin with. If you want a smooth mango slushie, I'd recommend! It was a hot day, but there was no AC or fans on in the store so it was rather hot inside. Not yet uncomfortable due to the iced drinks, but it would have been better with some airflow.

    Tan-Cha is such a guilty pleasure, especially because the taste is pretty consistent across locations. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I love the decor at this specific location during the holidays.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I love getting the uji matcha milk tea with tiramisu foam. Service is usually quick as this place doesn't typically get too crowded.

    I like the ambiance!
    Maureen M.

    Tan-cha is my favorite bubble tea. I always order Uji matcha here - you can really taste real matcha! I prefer this location because it's bigger and quieter than the other one. They have WiFi, a lot of table and chairs so people can just hang out or study/work if they wish. This is my go to place for boba!

The…read morecoffee was well balanced but the citrus chill was my favorite as it had a tart finish that brightened up the fruity notes in the espresso. I need to go back because everything I ordered was iced and I want to try some of the hot drinks. The banana bourbon latte was good, I wish it had maybe a more pronounced banana flavor and that the bourbon came through more. But the oat milk and the coffee were so smooth and luxurious that it made the experience enjoyable. Important note: with Mitsua market and the busy food areas there, this plaza gets incredibly busy! It's not the best parking situation, so know that ahead of time.

We ordered a Cortado and the Honey Sea Salt Latte -- both were excellent. The espresso was rich, smooth, and perfectly pulled, which really showed in both drinks. The honey sea salt latte had a really nice balance of sweet and savory that wasn't overly sweet. We also got a croissant, which was flaky and delicious. They clearly have strong breakfast options overall -- the cheesy toast pictured on their page looked amazing too. Everything felt fresh and thoughtfully prepared. This is a great spot for quality coffee and solid breakfast food. We'll definitely be back to work our way through more of their flavored drinks and breakfast toasts. Highly recommend!

There was a decent amount of…read moreparking (though it was quite early in the morning so that might be affecting it) and the space inside is relatively big with a lot of seating. There is a kiosk for ordering, as well as paper menus on display for you to look at, topped off with what appears to be a photobooth on the side that you can take pictures inside of for fun. I decided to get the Lavendula Latte, which the barista delivered to my table. I had forgotten to adjust the sweetness (though thinking now I can't remember if there was an option for that) but the drink had a nice balance of sweetness. Only complaint I have is that the menus lacks photos (not sure if it's lag or if there genuinely are no photos), but I'd say that the drink looks okay. You also have to use McDonalds wifi if you want to do work here, but the wifi's free and seems to be working fine so I'm not sure if that's really a negative. Overall, a nice place to work at with friendly service. I might consider coming back here again if I happen to end up in the area.

I was surprised to see Big Mug as I didn't know they had other locations besides the one in the plaza near El Camino Real. There was plenty of seating available. The service was quick and friendly, and the environment was cozy for the rainy day. The space is clean. There are cute items sold in the front near the cash register from local vendors. We got two tiramisu lattes. I liked how they weren't that sweet. It felt like a nice treat that didn't weigh me down. It was a good coffee run to have before eating brunch. I liked how the menu is extensive and there is something for just about anybody. We saw a photo booth inside, but didn't use it. Overall, I think this location is tranquil compared to the other Big Mug, and their offerings are hard to beat in terms of variety. I recommend going here for your caffeine fix!

You line up, pick your pastries and order your food if you are eating in and then pay at the counter. Then, they will deliver the food to your table.

It was a perfect combo. My friend got the chicken and croffle. She loved it. She said the chicken is most and perfectly seasoned. I took home, almond croissant, salt breads (garlic, chocolate and truffles), toast box, and ham & cheese croissant. Everything was delicious!

That said, they're constantly restocking, and the staff has a well-oiled system down. Even when it's busy, things move surprisingly efficiently. PASTRIES/BAKED GOODS: 9/10 I love their pastries and baked goods! I honestly haven't had anything that was a miss for me, whether it's savory or sweet. Everything I've tried has been delicious. FOOD/MEALS: 8/10 As for their meals, I thought they were good, but not quite as memorable as the pastries. I ordered the avocado toast, and while it was hearty and generously loaded, I felt like there was just a little too much going on. Both the salad and the toast were dressed a bit too heavily for my taste. COFFEE: 8/10 I also really enjoy their coffee. My go-to is the Latte Einspänner, and it pairs perfectly with their pastries. You can really taste the quality of the espresso, and I appreciate that it's not overly sweet. SERVICE: 9/10 The staff is quick, efficient, and constantly on the move. As I mentioned, they run like a well-oiled machine, even during the morning rush. AMBIANCE: 8/10 Seats fill up fast! If you're planning to dine in and you spot an open table, have someone in your group grab it while the other orders; tag-team it, lol. I also love the overall aesthetic. The wooden tables, sky blue and yellow color palette, and bright space make it feel warm and inviting. And of course, the giant glass displays packed with beautiful pastries are hard to resist; they're practically part of the décor!

You won't accidentally stumble upon it unless you make an effort to seek it out. Despite this, it seems to be well known by locals and the seating area gets full at times. There is plenty of seating inside, and some outside. Outlets can be found it some tables. It's a good place to work with your laptop. It's mostly tables for 2. There's a larger communal table, and some counter seating. Parking can be difficult. There's a small area in the parking garage for "guest" parking. It's almost always full and you will depend on luck to find one spot there or arrive in time when someone is leaving their spot. There is no parking on most of the surrounding streets, except for the small section of the road that curves underneath Lawrence. And that part is often full of parked cars. It can be frustrating and this parking situation will easily drive away customers to find somewhere else with easier parking. If you're fortunate enough to get parking, you will find that Coffeebar offers a decent coffee menu, baked goods, and some food if you need more than a snack. The people working behind the counter have all been very friendly and helpful. Their Chocolate Croissant is HUGE!!! They'll ask if you want it warmed up. Definitely do this. It is delicious slightly warmed up. I have tried their Iced Chai Latte, which was just OK. It lacked the spice I was expected from a chai, and felt a bit too milky.

Occasionally burnt espresso but I love them too much to mind. I am a matcha snob to say the LEAST. Hands down best coffee shop matcha in the Bay Area. The classic iced matcha latte with honey is grassy and earthy and creamy and a little sweet. The iced banana pudding matcha latte had people lined up around the corner for months when it came out. It is deliciously worth the wait. Best banana cold foam in my opinion because it's made with actual bananas instead of flavoring so it's much more mellow. The double matcha they had for awhile is also awesome. Banana cold foam also goes great on an espresso latte. Now they let you add whichever cold foam you like to whatever drink which is great. Basically you can't go wrong. They are always changing up the menu for the new season and have lots of unique drinks on their menu. Not much seating inside at this location. The winchester Blvd one has more if that's what you're looking for. Their pastries are also all yummy and they sell their matcha powder for $60 for 100g which is a GREAT price for a great matcha.
