Located inside the San Francisco Caltrain station is this kiosk serving food and beverages. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Even though it's a grab and go spot, I saw that they roast and sell their own beans, which is really neat![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I ordered a small Raspberry White Chocolate Mocha ($5.95): +Creamy and balanced +I requested less sweet, and I'm glad I did b/c it was sweet enough for me. [[HIGHLIGHT]]-Very hot![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] *Verdict: 4.5 stars rounded up to 5 d/t service. I ordered and received my drink in ~5 minutes. In addition, I had some questions about the menu since there were so many options and the cashier was friendly and patient. read more

Tazza D'Amore Cafe - Enjoying a Raspberry White Chocolate Mocha on the Caltrain - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Francisco, California

This place is great when you're in a pinch at the Caltrain station! I was early to the Caltrain and forgot I hadn't eaten breakfast, so I ordered a bagel with jam. It was $3.75, which I thought was reasonable. They toasted the bagel, and gave me packaged jam, the kind you would see at diners. Service was friendly and quick. There wasn't a lot of seating around, so it was best to wait until I could find a table on the train to ea read more

Whatever you do, do not get the avocado spread - it tasted off / sour to me (like it had gone bad) and ruined the entire otherwise fine breakfast sandwich. read more

This place rocks! If you need a warm beverage or bite to eat before or after boarding the train, this is your spot. The service is friendly and fast and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the matcha latte is sweet (like I like it).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Come for the coffee, stay for Alan! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Seriously, the coffee here is savage.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I stopped in at this train station location during my afternoon commute looking for a quick bite and a caffeine fix, and they blew me away. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They crafted a powerful vanilla latte that officially sets the standard for what a latte should be.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Also, huge shoutout for the food quality--their bagels were incredibly fresh, which is a rare find late in the afternoon when most commuter places just serve stale leftovers. Beyond the food and drink, Alan's hospitality is what truly sets Tazza D'amore apart. He is an absolute legend and treats everyone like a regular from the second they walk up to the counter. The atmosphere is fun, the service is lightning fast, and the overall energy is unmatched. This is easily my favorite new commuter spot. 10/10 recommend!" read more

I stopped by for a quick lunch. By then stuffed croissants were out of stock. Spicy Thai chicken wrap was the main item I had. It was slightly less on flavor. Granola with yogurt came on good quantity. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Latte was ok.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Got off Bart on a cold, early evening and needed coffee, so googled what was nearby and this was the closest place that was actually open. It's more of a kiosk/stand type of place. I went up to the window, was greeted right away by a friendly barista and I ordered a small regular coffee. The coffee tasted good and was what I needed on a cold night. For a grab and go coffee spot, it did its job. I wish there were more coffee places open in the evenings in SF, but not many coffee spots stay open past 5/6 pm these days. read more

I was really disappointed with my experience. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The drink I received tasted awful because the milk was clearly burned. Instead of being smooth and creamy, it had a bitter, scorched flavor that completely ruined the coffee.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The barista appeared overwhelmed and seemed to be struggling to keep up with orders. [[HIGHLIGHT]]While I understand that busy periods can be stressful, the quality of the drink suffered as a result.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The drink should never have been served in that condition. [[HIGHLIGHT]]For the price I paid, I expected much better quality and attention to detail.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Unfortunately, this was one of the worst coffee drinks I've had, and I left feeling frustrated and dissatisfied.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I hope management provides enough support and training to ensure customers receive drinks that meet basic quality standards, even during busy times. read more

Located right inside the 4th st SF Caltrain station !! I saw they also had some stamp card action going on. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I got a matcha latte cuz it was 4 pm and I didn't wanna die of caffeine via coffee.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The matcha is super sweet and kinda artificial tasting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I kinda wish I opted for the coffee cuz it looked like they source their own beans and stuff[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

"If only there was some place I could get a quick breakfast on my way to work" I thought to myself, as I got off the train for the umpteenth time. I have literally walked passed the food court, not realizing that if you ask ye shall receive. And in most cases, before you ask. ANYWAYS I had a ham and cheese croissant, and steak burrito. Both hit that spot and gave me the fuel I needed to start my day at work not hangry. I was pleasantly surprised by the warmth of the staff, the quality of the food, and the speed of the service. Thank you! Passenger on Train that arrived @ 8am. read more

their was a lady i never seen before working there i usually see the otheir ladies. this woman didn't know how to make some of the holiday drinks i ask for even said she didn't know how to make them. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I asked for an apple cider latte and i got an hot apple cider juice instead of a latte version[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] plus dont get me started on an eggnog frap she didn't know what that was or that it was on the menu?. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I don't know what the barista thinks a good amount of syrup is but I got the coconut mocha and it was so unbearably sweet I could only take two sips before having to toss it[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] :( read more

So I was walking back to my office and was hungry and needed a caffeine refill, let me tell you the lady was absolutely ready for me! I ordered a breakfast sandwich with a large white mocha and not only was she efficient but she was friendly! This is a take it and go place but if you need to prep some use it he table provided. Ketsy my server was so friendly and super responsive! So shout out to her! read more

Slow service + preferential treatment based on looks. they expect a lot of tips and wouldn't move their limbs without it. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Mid tier coffee too. It was watered down.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Wonder how someone can get a single item order wrong must be that they didn't want to serve me. read more

Thank you to the lovely cashier who was so sweet to me in the morning. It's such a cute place to grab breakfast right off the cal train. Also so convenient. I was in a deep need for a filling and tasty breakfast. The bagel sandwich hit the spot. Definitely will recommend to all my commuter buddies! read more

Tazza D'Amore Cafe - Bagel Sandwich - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Francisco, California

3.5 stars- Really convenient shop in the Caltrain station. Some of their items are either cheap or averaged price. I'd say if you buy something, get their coffees or food items. Their "smoothies" are just a bit of Naked Juice and a whole cup of ice; you can add a banana but it will cost an extra dollar. Kind of expensive (about $6) for just those 2 ingredients. Service was nice and fast otherwise. read more

Service was fast, [[HIGHLIGHT]]the coffee was good[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]], and it's conveniently located for getting off or on the train.

Yeap, a cute grab and go coffee shop located right inside the CalTrain station across from Subway. Very convenient & super friendly. Condiments are provided outside! I grabbed a London Fog on the way to work and enjoyed it thoroughly. Loved the fact that she asked how sweet I would like it. Attention to detail! Will definitely be back to try out their coffee selections because the coffee menu is quite extensive. read more

Very rude and condescending cashier. Many other nicer places nearby. Avoid if you can.

The staff are always very kind :) I find the atmosphere and look of the business pleasant. The service is fast. I can pick up coffee within a minute while walking to my bus. read more

This is a small little coffee shop, conveniently located on the CalTrain station. They carry a good selection of coffee and teas. I ordered an almond latte and it tasted really good. They also have scones, pastries and other breakfast items. Very convenient for those that want to grab and go. Very friendly staff as well. read more

Update on my review. I needed to take the Caltrain this morning and had a few extra minutes to spare. Spoke with the owner and instead of a refund I chose an iced coffee and a chocolate muffin. The owner was really nice and apologetic. Overall he seemed like a really nice guy. Last time was a bit of a rush and I get it we all have those days. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This morning my iced coffee with hazelnut was very delicious[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] and my chocolate muffin was soft . Overall my opinion has completely change. I apologize for the bad review. 5 out of 5 for the service read more

Super great and quick (everything ready under 4 minutes). I usually get the breakfast sandwich which is killer however their other options are great too. Do not recommend the pre-made burritos however. Some homeless hanging around but if you stay inside it's great. Slightly high prices however. Go if you want a filling and yummy breakfast. read more

This cafe is located inside the Caltrain station. The employee was very friendly. He was quick too which I appreciate! That's great especially if you got a train to catch. I'm so happy they offer decaf options so I was able to try their iced pumpkin spice latte. It was sweet and yummy!! Also got a ham & cheese croissant and the employee toasted it up for me real quick and it was so so good. Would definitely visit again when I'm in town! read more

Great service, great smiles from the staff, latte was creamy, and the Ginger Almond scones rule. Inside the station, this little corner caffeine stop offers everything one could imagine for their early shot of espresso or sweet tooth if it so beckons. Good selection of baked goods such as scones, muffins and pastries. In fact, so much so that I bought out their entire selection of Ginger Almond scones (full of slivered almonds throughout the scone, not just on top) to bring to the team :) Thanks for making my grumpy pants commute better this morning! read more

There are some mornings (well actually, most mornings) where human interaction and productivity cannot happen until sufficient caffeine levels have been reached. Throw commuting on Caltrain into the mix... And you have a business! Tazza is one of these businesses that have popped up inside the Caltrain station, and they have kept me alive many a mornings with their simple but quick service. Of course, it's just a little stand in the middle of the station. No seating like a coffeeshop. The barista at the window will hand you a cup to fill with coffee if that's all you desire. There is also a variety of pastries in the window to provide sweet sustenance, but they're not very good from my experience. The cheese danish has made my stomach churn on Caltrain, which is a terrible feeling. Overall, Tazza gets the job done. I would only come here if I was taking an early train and didn't have time to make myself coffee at home. Seems like it could be a regular morning ritual for many. They do have a good set of coffee brews, and I like that it's mostly self-serve, so kudos to the existence of this place! read more

the staff are fantastic, and the owner makes a (generally successful) effort to memorize people's orders. [[HIGHLIGHT]]the food's good, as are the drinks.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] very conveniently located and quick. It's the best part of many of my mornings read more

Surprise coffee/baked items shop in the train station. We were waiting for the train and the kids wanted 'something'. This stand has smoothies made with Naked juice. It was nice to find a healthier alternative. We were greeted by a friendly employee and served promptly. The kids loved their smoothies. Great experience with service and smoothies at the train station. read more

Skipped breakfast because you didn't want to miss the Caltrain? Look no further, Tazza D'Amore is there for you! They have a variety of hot breakfast! I waited in line briefly. I would say about 3-4 minutes. The egg & cheese bagel with bacon appealed to me at that time so I ordered that. The employees here were friendly and efficient, in my opinion. Of course, having it made hot and fresh, waiting was expected. 5 minutes was acceptable enough for my edacious self to meet and greet my long-awaited bagel. I also bought a Naked smoothie (strawberry) to give my energy a boost. I'm not a morning person so I have to adjust my circadian rhythm to be in favor of my new ventures in the city. read more

Cute little easy in-and-out place in the SF Caltrain station. Grab a muffin, grab a coffee, and you're on your way. I don't know that I'd go so far as to say that the pastries or coffee are exceptional, but they're as good as other places and it's WAY convenient. read more

The service here is great! They remember your name, your breakfast and coffee - which is impressive, considering their busy location.

Tiny coffee windoow with a big heart and decent all-day menu! They serve up to-go bevs & snacks, pronto. Only in SF could you hop on the train with an avocado gluten-free toast :) read more

Tazza D'Amore Cafe - Everyone welcome! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Francisco, California

Super convenient for the train, being that it's right there at the station, swing by, grab breakfast and hop a train. Perfect... Only the line was long and disorganized. People were ordering and then just standing at the counter waiting for their hot sandwiches. My croissant (my breakfast pastry weakness) was not buttery and flaky and I would expect, instead it was like eating a bread roll. This alone is enough to make me not spend my money there anymore. I never even tried the coffee but I would recommend spending $1.25 at the newspaper stand next door or bring a to go because waiting in an unorganized line when you have a train to catch is just frustrating, even more so when the product isn't even all that great. read more

They won't provide provide tap water for free -- you have to buy bottled water for $2. Apparently it comes down from the manager. This policy is not only customer-hostile, it's also bad for the environment. read more
