I ordered a 16 oz (large) coffee, but was served a 12 oz. When it was brought to our table, I politely asked about the size since it looked smaller than what I usually get. The barista told me it was 12 oz and mentioned it might just be a different cup, then walked away without really addressing the concern. I checked my receipt and confirmed I was charged for a 16 oz. I went back to the counter and explained that I simply wanted the correct size. Initially, I was told I would need to pay more, which was frustrating. After explaining again, she finally offered to remake it. For clarity, the drink hadn't been touched at all--I returned it exactly as it was. I really like this place and will continue to support it, but I hope the team can improve on order accuracy and customer service, especially when concerns are raised politely. A little more attentiveness and willingness to resolve issues would go a long way.

Coffee shop located in the heart of Downtown Pleasanton. I'm not sure this place took over another…read morebusiness at some point because the space is really large. It also has an old-timey study or library or at least a literary vibe to this place. There's multiple rooms, including a stage in the back room. I think they have events here. Service is friendly and they have classic drinks as well as some festive ones. I was here on St. Patrick's Day so I got something festive even though it was overly sugary lol. I ordered the Lucky Charms White Mocha. It was tasty, but definitely a drink I wouldn't be able to order on the regular. I was able to set up my computer and one of the side rooms and get some work done. This place seems to be a very popular place for studying and doing some work. Just a great place in a great area. They have a large lot and there's also plenty of street parking in the area, especially during the day.

They get their beans from an exceptional source for quality and fair trade practices (unsure if they share it broadly). They also roast the beans themselves! I had Ethiopian Yirgacheffe, light roast (my all-time favorite). Though I always enjoyed East African coffee, a trip to Ethiopia solidified Ethiopia as the core to coffee's emergence and the passion of growers. The owner was engaging, kind, and helpful. I highly recommend visiting Medleno.

Honestly, This place is an absolute GEM.

This place is small, basically big enough for you to order at the counter, check out the pastries, and see the coffee bean options. I came in on a Tuesday afternoon and was greeted right away. I ordered a hot vanilla latte and it was made right away. Prices are great, coffee nowadays is too much but this quality was well worth it. Only downside for me is that there is no place to sit. Other than that, I look forward to coming back! Loved the coffee from here!

I'll definitely be swinging by when I visit my folks!

Service is impolite. Totally perplexing…read more Great location, easy parking, nice decor. The ingredients are there. Staff: just not friendly. Feels like you are imposing on them to make you a coffee. Ran into a friend who shared the same sentiment before I said anything. And, they somehow did not make his coffee. After waiting politely for like ten minutes he asked about it. Did they not see the one person standing there waiting for coffee? They did not apologize for their mistake. They just made is coffee and gave it to him. My pour-over: tasted good. I've been four times and the experience consistently unimpressive. Won't go back. .

This is for the Morning Buzz blend whole beans only…read more I ran across the Airborne Roasting stand at the Hayward farmers market, and asked about light roast beans. I was told they only have medium and dark, but the medium tastes pretty light. I asked if the beans were washed or natural, and she couldn't tell me, and wasn't even sure what that was. I should have taken that as a warning that these beans were not the same level as Devout Coffee roasters beans, which is what I usually get. However, since Airborne was cheaper than the beans I usually get from Devout Coffee, I went ahead and bought a pound of Morning Buzz. This morning, I brewed a comparison between the Airborne Roasting Morning Buzz, and my last remaining light roast beans from Devout Coffee, which at that point was several months old, whereas the Airborne beans where freshly roasted. Well, even so, the Devout light roast beans were far superior in taste than the Airborne beans. The Airborne tasted too burnt, and lacked those subtle flavors that make coffee so enjoyable. It was just a one-note band with loud speakers. My recommendation is, if you like a light roast, and sophisticated flavors in your coffee, get something else. I understand a lot of people do enjoy the burnt flavor (Starbucks, anyone?), but I wish they wouldn't have told me the medium roast tasted like a light roast: it doesn't. Note: in the end, with lots of sugar, lots of milk, and some heavy whipping cream, I was able to have a nice cup of coffee-flavored sweetness.

Long story short, our plans changed and found Airborne Roasting on Yelp. We connected with Roland (owner), which turned out to be one happy detour to our new go-to coffee roastery. Jet Fuel' roast has a bold and intense profile that will keep black coffee lovers like my husband coming back for more. On the other hand, 'Morning Buzz' and 'Barnstormer' are for coffee fans looking for more caffeine or milder and sweeter flavors. The best part is we are so very happy to be supporting a family-owned, local business that provides wonderful products and excellent customer service. Also, if you reside in Union City coffee delivery is free!

Did not know of its existence after living in Livermore for over 2 years when did a Google search of best flea markets in SF B ay Area. It is hidden in a large warehouse business area off HWY 580 at Vasco Rd. It is set up with vendors with its own "small" antique shops. Beautifully organized with many beautiful things to find. Was amazed at many reasonable priced furniture pieces. If this "flea market: would get the word out, I am certain that it would bring even more vendors. It is worth to explore since not too many antique shops nestled together in the Tri-Valley area. Only opened once a month for 4 days.

Open to the public 3 1/2 days a month, got a chance to visit for the month of November (Nov 6 - 9). The service was awesome, if one of the store associates see you holding an item, they will ask if you want them to put it in a basket for you. When u check out, just mention your basket name and they will ring it up for you. Love it this way so you aren't carrying a bunch of things around since the hallways are really narrow. The warehouse itself has a hallway with a bunch of rooms and stairs to a second floor. Each room has a lot of decor that you can buy, even the ones hanging on the walls. It was really packed even on Friday morning when I went, but it was manageable. I spent an hour and a half here. They mentioned having an outdoor market on Saturday and Sundays but I went on a Friday so I didn't get a chance to see it. However, they might only do that for this month because of the rainier weather next month. Prices were decent. Definitely worth checking this place out. I left with some cute decor for my new place (:
