    This Starbucks is in a complex which looks little on the upscale side . Plenty of parking . They have few seating inside but outside there is enough seating. Can be hard to find a spot inside sometimes. Food quality is pretty much same as any other Starbucks.

    2nd drink they gave me.

    Ordered a drink through the app (which had a good amount of customizations), I went to pick it up and got the completely wrong drink (which did have the sticker with my name and my order on it). That isn't a huge deal, I went back and told the staff and they offered to remake it, which I thanked them for. I get the drink and although it was the right drink, some customizations were still missing. They did not care to take the time to fix their mistake and make my drink with care (with reading the order).

    Pretty holiday cup!

    This is my lunchtime Starbucks during the workweek! The baristas here were wonderful. Very friendly and answered my questions. Served me my drink with a smile on their face :) Also, I love that they have outdoor seating, so when it's sunny outside, I can enjoy my lunch while people watching. Great Starbucks!!

    This Starbucks requires mobile and in store customers to wait in one line and they don't pick up the phone when you call to cancel.

    I decided to stop by here since I was waiting for a takeout order next door at China Delight…read more The inside is decorated with images of their teas and doughnuts on the walls. They have quite a bit of seating. All their mochi doughnuts are displayed in a glass case. Unfortunately they did not have all the flavors available when I was there. I decided on the mango, biscoff, and fruity pebbles doughnuts. I also ordered a coconut pineapple smoothie and a peach green tea. I really liked that you can pick your level of sweetness. The young lady helping me was very kind. I asked her when the best time to come when all the flavors are available. She said in the early morning. Next time I'll stop by a little earlier so I can try some of the other doughnut flavors. All three mochi doughnuts were delicious. My favorite was the Biscoff flavor.

    The experience here used to be something special. About a year ago, I was a regular, and what kept…read moreme coming back was the freshness. The donuts were made to order, and I still remember the two young employees who worked there. They'd happily let you know it might take a few minutes because they wanted you to experience the product the way it was meant to taste. That kind of pride in what you're serving is rare, and it made a real impression. There's something different about that kind of enthusiasm coming from employees versus an owner. An owner has an obvious stake in selling you on something, but when the people making your food are genuinely excited for you to try it, that energy is contagious. You can't help but feed off of it. Fast forward to this year. My daughter loves coming here since we frequently visit the amazing Chinese restaurant next door (China Delight-highly recommend), so I've brought her a few times. Unfortunately, it's been a different experience. The donuts are always pre-made, and the focus seems to be more on cleaning and closing down than on having a fresh product ready for customers. To be fair, the staff is always friendly and I do appreciate a clean shop , but when I'm choosing between a spotless floor and a donut worth eating, I'd rather have the latter. I'll note that I usually come a bit after dinnertime, so maybe timing plays a role. But after a few visits with the same result, it feels more like a shift in priorities than bad luck. I genuinely hope this place finds its way back to what made it great. The bones are there. The location is great, the staff is kind, and clearly there's a customer base that wants to love this place. Bring back the fresh donuts and you'll earn those stars back!!

I ordered the Power Panini, which is a chicken sandwich with pesto, mozzarella, greens, and roasted tomatoes on multigrain wheat bread. Wow was it good. I loved everything about it, including the bread. It was pretty big, too. I asked the cashier if I could get plain apple juice, which wasn't on the menu, and she offered to make a fresh squeezed drink or one from store bought apple juice. I went with store bought and it tasted great. My sister had The Incredibowl, which is organic açaí, different kinds of fruit, granola, almond butter and milk, and honey. She seemed to enjoy it at first and then pushed it away when she got about halfway through. Not sure what happened. The cafe is small and cozy with just a few tables inside and a few more outside. We were the only customers inside, which was nice. The staff was quick to make our food and friendly. I also want to mention they had the best '70s music playing softly overhead. I'll definitely be back for another Power Panini.

    We came here today for lunch. This location is off of Cottle next to Marshalls…read more The inside is pretty small with about 4 tables for inside dining. We checked out the menu and then placed our order. The manager waited on us, and he was very nice. My husband ordered the Mighty Med salad, a kombucha, and a nutty bowl. I ordered the Power Panini with chicken and multi-grain bread and a green tea. Luckily, we got there when it wasn't busy, so all tables were available. Our food was brought out to us in a bag, which I thought was weird since we were dining in. My sandwich was hot and very delicious. The chicken was very tender and not dry at all. My green tea was iced cold and refreshing. My husband enjoyed his salad but thought the beef texture was off and tasted old. He said he wouldn't order it again. But the salad part was very good and fresh. He enjoyed his kombucha. He thought the nutty açaí bowl was just okay and didn't taste any peanut butter. We think they forgot to add it. I didn't like the nutty açaí bowl. I didn't care for the flavor. I prefer the açaí bowls at Palmetto Superfoods. I'd probably come back for the sandwich but nothing else.

    My favorite coffee shop in San Jose. I look forward to going every time. All their drinks are…read moreexcellent. I started with the vanilla bean latte with oat milk. Good hot or iced. 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. I would've gate kept this place but everyone already knows about it so I HAVE to show them the love they deserve!!

    A message to management…read more Love the place, but for the love of God Please fix the cup TOPS for the hot drinks Every time I go to take a sip I end up getting stains on my shirt because the hot liquid leaks from underneath the tops onto my shirt for the hot drinks. This has been a known ongoing issue for a number of years and has never been addressed Please, for the love of God get better tops that don't leak. The place doesn't need another remodel it needs better tops that actually work. It's not hard. Just find a better supplier that has cup tops that actually work. I don't like using straws because it backwashes the drink. And I don't like cleaning stains off of my shirts every single time I go to get a coffee from academic. So please for the love of God fix the ongoing KNOWN top leaking issue... And if management actually gives a crap and it gets resolved, fingers crossed, I'll update my review.
