Haven't been here in a while but the place is nice. The people are very friendly and they efficient. Only had two people working, but man they were better than an actual full staff. They were never flustered and had a smile on their face. Greeted me as soon as I walked in. They made my drink just how like it and there was great music selection being played inside. read more

This Starbucks location has quite good review. I came to this site sometimes many years ago. I liked it. It is spacious and surrounded by a mixture environment of resident and business. I come here again today after many years. It is still nice as it was. Nothing special or particularly good on food at this site as it is "Starbucks". However, the staff and the environment of this location are really nice and friendly! Feeling enjoyed to spend a hour here doing nothing in this early Thursday afternoon. Thanks a lot to the staff of the place to keep clean and neat for customers to stay and enjoy themselves. read more

One star because zero isn't an option. Today I had the pleasure of being handed the display cake pop -- yes, the one that's been sitting out all day under who-knows-what conditions -- because they ran out. Instead of telling me they didn't have any left, they thought giving me the dusty, possibly germ-infused display version was totally acceptable. I'm sorry, but that's not only gross -- that's a health hazard. How is that even allowed? On top of that, when I asked for a water refill (after they spilled the first one), I was told it was "against policy." Let's be clear -- they spilled it. Not me. But I'm the one left without water? The policy should be "don't spill it in the first place" or maybe "try basic customer service." Starbucks, I expected better. This was not just disappointing -- it was borderline unsanitary and absurdly unhelpful. read more

I placed a mobile order and by the time I got there, about 5 mins, it was ready for me on the counter. Because they were so efficient, I didn't stick around too long. I did notice the inside was very spacious and everything looked very clean. They also had a good sized outdoor patio where folks were enjoying drinks with their families. I didn't have any trouble finding 1hr street parking in front of the store. If you have to park down the block, you may enjoy a nice walk through the park. read more

Apparently a new policy was placed that no dogs were allowed in the store where previously they were able to come inside quickly with their owner . I was unaware of the change and the partner was completely rude about it . There are no signs indicating this change so how are we supposed to know ? The unprofessionalism displayed by the partners were completely uncalled for . Starbucks , please train your employees how to communicate in a more professional friendly manner also please ask that they reference dogs as animals and not pets as plenty of people in this community have registered ESAs.

There's only 2 Starbucks that I LOVE. This one and the Powell Bart Station location. This Starbucks never effs up my orders, it's clean, and for the most part- they are fast. To be fair- I mobile order everything but the few times I ordered at the counter, service was great and drinks were done fast. We live in that complex so there are a lot of Google peeps and dog parents. This place is super cute and gives free tiny cups of whip cream for dog moms/dads to give their furbabies. Those that use this location for meetings and work have plenty of tables and community tables to pick from. read more

Refreshing my update years ago. Yes - this place(zanker villagio) is still my favorite among the many that i go. Today- Koko (Kourtney) and ADIL helped me with some complicated payment transactions. They are patient, understanding and full of empathy. Koko is strong in leadership, decisive and she is also the "go to" person. ADIL is super patient and did his best to help. Few days ago - we also picked up some ground coffee to begin a compost bin in the garden. This outlet is really focusing on sustainability. We called few outlets asking for used ground coffee. Most of the places- they do not save the ground coffee or the coffee are mixed with other disposables. This outlet (zanker villagio) is not the nearest place from my house but i would go there for the awesome service! Koko and team- you guys rock and thank you for making this outlet outstanding! read more

Honestly one of the best Starbucks I've ever been to. I know they all serve the same stuff, but the service is what really made the difference here. I ordered a Caramel Macchiato and it took them about 5 minutes to get it to me! MOST of the other Starbucks I've been to take at least 15 minutes BUT it could have been due to the fact that it was a weekday at 8 AM because normally I don't order anything at that time. Parking: There's customer parking in the front from Zanker, but it's limited, so the later you come, the less there will be. I'm pretty sure there's additional parking, but if you're only going for a grab and go, the closer to the door you park the better. read more

Alright, for all the Starbucks I've reviewed, they all start with "What's to say, it's another Starbucks?" and I've never given 5 stars to a Starbucks because of the shear fact that they all sell the same old boring coffee pikes place and I'm sick of it! Then I discovered the Clover brewing system this location has (as I was whining to one of the baristas about pikes). Now I have options, the Ethiopian Sun Dried beans are so awesome and they can brew you a fresh cup in just minutes using this semi-automated french press style brewing machine. So far this has been the only Starbucks that I've been to that has this system so I felt compelled to write an update and bump them up to 5 stars... I also love that they are right next to Patxi's pizza, one of my favorite lunch spots so this is a win win... read more

Super friendly folks and large patio seating area are a plus. There is a park nearby where you can enjoy your coffee drink. That is if that coffee drink was enjoyable. Usually the mocha pumps hide the great variance in Starbucks coffee product due to beans, barista, water, and expresso machine. However, today I can taste a strong overtone of expresso sludge. The remake wasn't better. read more

I normally wouldn't write a review on a starbucks location cause I don't expect good customer service, but everything here is amazing. The customer service here is exceptional and the staff here are super friendly. Also the location is a decent size with abundant amount of wall outlets. They also have really nice outdoor seating where the sun faces. The best part is that I always ask for my coffee with nonfat milk and I don't have to monitor anyone here to ensure I get nonfat milk. At other locations I have to monitor the employees because I would receive their default 2%. They have never made a mistake with my coffee and even if they did, I am sure that they would not give me any attitude just to remake it. One time I adventurously bought a smoked butterscotch latte and I couldn't get past 2 sips. I was planning to throw it out and just get my usual. Since it was a full cup of liquids, I didn't want to just throw it out into the trashcan. I asked for them to throw it out into their sink. They asked me what was wrong with it and I had explained I wasn't a fan of the flavor and was willing to buy a new drink. They offered to just make me my new drink free of charge. That was amazing! read more

This starbucks has recently opened up at the junction of Zanker & Villagio, San Jose. I live in Crescent Village Apartments and had been craving for a coffee shop to open here. The nearest ones that I used to go to are in Rio Robles and Riveroaks Marketplace. I didn't give it a 5 star just because I could walk to pick up my coffee, the coffeeshop is huge and tastefully decorated. The outside seating is next to a batch of white roses and it looks beautiful. The staff is polite and helpful and I love the fact that there is ample place to sit even at busy hours.

I live near this Starbucks so I decided to not be lazy and walk here to get some coffee after my graveyard shift. This place is probably the biggest Starbucks I've ever been to, sweet! They were quick making my coffee which is great, and it was hot which is always nice (you would be surprised at some places who make it warm). But, they didn't put the lid on correctly so it burned my hand a little, so check and be careful. I also ordered a muffin and the lady taking my order forgot to give it to me, so when I mentioned it to the barista she rolled her eyes. Sorry lady I know you're busy, sorry to bother you.

The servers are friendly and quick, and there is a wide but not overwhelming variety of drink (mostly coffee/espresso and some matcha) and food (cake slices, waffles, and dessert toasts) options available. You can also preorder whole cakes from them. The coffee is decent, but I find that $7 is a little steep for a latte that doesn't really stand out. I can sort of justify it by thinking that I'm also paying for the lovely space to work as well. The desserts are also a bit pricy, at around $10 per piece (and the pieces aren't huge). Overall, I had a pleasant experience here and would absolutely recommend it if you're looking for a place to sit down for a while to read, study, or relax, despite the somewhat pricy menu.

The coffee was just drinkable and below-Starbucks in quality. Chai Latte is just a latte with chai flavored Italian syrup. I had hoped a place in the South Bay with chai in its name would have solid house made chai for chai latte but alas, no.

Since we did not sit inside I didn't check to see if there were outlets or such to comment. I ordered the corn milk, less sweet, however, I would say it was still sweet so if youre like me and prefer less you may have to speak to whoever is working directly to make it even less sweet as from the options I still think it was sweet. Still super good, I'm just glad I didnt do 100% sweetness. The worker also asked us to let her know if we wanted any additional adjustments, so that was very nice! I love corn milk and if that's something you like I'd recommend. The pandan jelly in it helped lessen the sweetness so I think keeping that in really balanced my drink. My friend got the peach lychee crusher which had a very syrupy taste to it. I would say if you dislike that type of flavoring then it won't be for you.

The flavor here is very strong -- you can actually taste the roasty nuttiness of the hojicha and it is not diluted at all. The earl grey addition gives that extra caffeine but also a great floral aftertaste that compliments the flavor of the hojicha well.

The foam is tasty and has a nice vanilla flavor to it. Definitely good consistency and creaminess. They have a good formula / ratio of cream to matcha it water - I ordered it 0% sweet and it was actually not too watery or bitter at all!! The oat milk sub I got + manner cream overshadowed the matcha a taddd bit but I was impressed that the drink was still good when stripped of its sweetener

Coffee and Chai is a great spot for studying as there are lots of tables and it's quiet. Our barista today also turned out to be the owner of the cafe. Such a sweet, accommodating man!! We got a masala chai, a cardamom chai, and a matcha latte- all hot cos it's so chilly in San Jose around this time of year. I preferred the masala chai, but both chai lattes were yummy! Spiced so deliciously and definitely helped warm us up. My grandpa got the matcha and was pleased with the taste as it was unsweetened but not bitter at all. Regardless of whether you need a quick pick-me-up, a local study/work spot, or even someplace to catch up, this lovely cafe should be the next place you try out!

Once upon a time, I tried a pistachio latte in my hometown and fell in love. I moved out towards…read morethis neck of the words and was searchin' searchin' searchin', and my thirsty heart led me to here! --- F O O D & D R I N K S --- The first drink I had at Qamaria was the Pistachio Latte with oatmilk and whewwww... easily the best pistachio latte I've ever had. The pistachio flavor tastes rich and legit without being overly sweet or covering up the coffee. A lot of pistachio drinks at other spots taste like artificial syrup, but this one is smooth, balanced, and actually complements the espresso. I also love seeing that deep green color in the clear cups--it just looks so aesthetic and makes the drink feel even more authentic. Honestly, 9 out of 10 times, this is what I'm ordering. If it's your first time here, PLEASE get it. Thankfully my husband is always down to be adventurous and order something different so we can still guarantee at least one pistachio latte on the table lol. His go-to is the Qamaria Latte with oatmilk, sometimes with cold foam. It sounds simple--espresso, steamed milk, cardamom, and cinnamon--but it tastes like comfort in a cup. The cardamom and cinnamon make it feel warm, cozy, and layered without punching you in the face with sugar. Nothing tastes artificial here. Everything feels intentional and made with care. Also, whether you dine in or take it to-go, the drinks always look cute. I LOVE the dine-in presentation though. The iced drinks come in clear glass cups so you can see all the layers, and the hot drinks come in these thick ceramic mugs that make the experience feel extra cozy. And I'm such a sucker for their tray setup too--everything matches the aesthetic so well and makes coffee dates here feel extra special. And don't even get me started on the milk cakes because they are dangerously good. My fave is the Biscoff milk cake. It's super soft, creamy, rich, and has the perfect caramelized cookie flavor without being too sweet. It paired sooo well with the warm spices in the coffee. _______________________________________________________ --- S E R V I C E --- Each barista I ever had was kind and super chill. I never felt rushed and they took their time answering questions. It sounds pretty simple but I feel like even with how busy it can get, they pace themselves accordingly behind the counter so that they are intentional and patient with their customers, and work in a consistent pace that gets drinks done in time and hands them off with care. Very contrast to a cafe where baristas are working so fast-paced that their interactions are short and it feels like that they just want to get the drink over with and passed off to the customer. It all goes back to Qamaria's baristas being intentional with the way that they work. Keep doin' your thing y'all. Love the flow. _______________________________________________________ --- A M B I A N C E -- It's funny because the first time my husband and I pulled up was after dinner on a Friday night. He was feenin' for coffee and was like, "What's even open this late?" Yoooo, finding out Qamaria Yemeni Coffee was open until 1 AM on Fridays and Saturdays instantly made us happy because now we got a late-night spot whenever the cravings hit. Most nights they're open until midnight too, which is dangerous lol. And let me tell you... this place gets CRACKIN'. We came around 10:30 PM and the line was out the door, but I'm so glad we stayed because the drinks changed our life. Even on a random weekday when I met up with a homegirl, we looked up from yappin' for hours and suddenly the line was wrapped outside again. Trust--it's worth the wait. The inside is warm, modern, and culturally rich without feeling forced or overly trendy. The arches, lighting, patterned seating, earthy tones, and artwork make the whole space feel cozy and intentional. Even when it's packed, it still feels welcoming and communal--honestly just proof this is THE spot to be no matter the time of day. People are studying, catching up with friends and fam, working, or just vibing over coffee, and it somehow all works together perfectly. It's the type of café that makes you want to slow down and stay awhile instead of grabbing your drink and leaving.
