    Strawberry Matcha latte
    Megan S.

    I got the strawberry matcha and it was very creamy and the perfect amount of sweetness. The shop is super easy to pass but there is a small parking lot behind the store. You order on an iPad and the service is super fast. There is a good amount of seating inside as well. I was pleasantly surprised at how good this place was.

    We heard they ae known for their Asian soft roll cakes. We ordered 3 desserts to share. Black Sesame Roll Cake, so soft and filled with rich white cream and sesame cream. Hojicha Burnt Basque Cheesecake was very rich, nutty and roasty. Hojicha Custard Pudding is smooth and light.

    Love this store so much! Wish they closed later. Thai tea roll- 9/10 string Thai tea flavor - sweet- doesn't rlly tap into the bitter tea flavor but more the classic Thai tea sweetened drink Black sesame - 10/10 impressed everyone. Fine grounded black sesame but still a little grit for texture. Very strong natural black sesame taste. Matcha roll - 10/10 stunning flavor. Taste just like raw ceremonial grade matcha. Not excessively sweet a bit more on the strong matcha flavor less sugar. Delicious. Very strong flavor though. One roll is enough Coffee roll - 9/10 not bad standard mocha cake similar to paris baguette cappuccino cake. Classic mocha flavor Pink white sesame - 7/10 not my favorite. White cream is the white sesame and the pink is an artificial strawberry flavor. Overall taste like pocky.

    I have been very excited to try this place, but I've been holding off because holy moly the price is for a slice of roll cake kind of put me off. I'm used to Asian bakeries where the whole roll was maybe eight dollars, but I couldn't pass up the flavors that temp and time offered. I'm a sucker for tea flavored desserts, so they got me. You have to really pay attention when turning into their parking lot because it's easy to miss the driveway. I just ordered for pick up on their website,, and that was pretty simple. It's a small shop with very minimal seating so I'd say it's a safer bet to just take it home. All in all, I don't regret getting these cakes. They were a nice sweet treat for myself for my birthday, and it was fun to get a variety pack. I tried Matcha, Thai tea, Hojicha, espresso black sesame. I liked all of them, and the tea flavors were very forward, which I appreciated. The cream was a bit odd, the Matcha and Thai tea seemed to be regular cream, but the espresso, black sesame cream was almost gelatinous? And with the cakes that have half tea cream and half plain cream, I wish they were slightly more even? It was hard to get an equal bite of cream with cake. The cake itself was nice and light, yet also a little bit dense, similar to Japanese roll cakes. Would I try them again? The answer is yes. If they introduce another flavor that I'm really interested in, then I'm still a sucker and I would try it again.

    Tucked away and a bit easy to miss from the main road. Parking is limited, though there is a very small lot if you're lucky enough to snag a spot. The space itself is dainty yet cozy. I'd recommend ordering to-go, as it can get pretty busy inside. It's also best to come earlier in the day when their full selection of pastries is still available. My friends and I tried a few drinks and everyone really enjoyed them. I'd definitely stop by again whenever I'm in the neighborhood.

    Hojicha Strawberry Latte

    Cute little tea shop in Menlo Park! While small, it's bustling! There were many customers coming in and out while I was hanging out with a friend here, and I can see why! I ordered the hojicha strawberry latte with light ice and sugar. It's pretty much what you would expect from a hojicha strawberry latte, with the roastedness of the hojicha being balanced by the strawberry. It was a little light end on the roasted-ness though, but overall not too sweet. They also have a handful of various flavor roll cakes and cheesecakes, which I didn't try this time around. The interior is limited to 4 tables (each seating 2 people) and a handful of single-seating seats. They do not have WiFi available, if you were planning to bring a laptop to do work. Parking is extremely difficult as there's like 2-3 actual parking spots (otherwise it's very tight parallel parking along the very small driveway). Best option is street parking on El Camino (limited) or one street up on San Antonio St (more availability).

    Cute little cafe with aesthetic drinks and desserts. It is on the smaller side. There is maybe 4 tables and a bar seating by the window. There is a small/narrow parking lot shared with the restaurant next door. I stopped by here at around 2pm on Sunday. Was sad that most of the dessert items were already sold out! The only options were the black sesame roll cake, coffee roll cake, and hojicha pudding so we got those. I got the strawberry chrysanthemum tea while my friend got the rose lychee drink. Both were good and not too sweet. The texture of the cakes were perfectly soft. The cake was also very moist and the cream filling inside was good. I could taste the flavor of the sesame and coffee. I also enjoyed the hojicha pudding.

    Tucked behind Drunkin Monk, a small, calm spot with cute Japanese-style décor and a chill atmosphere. You order at a kiosk, wander for a bit, and they call your name when it's ready. I tried the hojicha strawberry latte at 30% sugar. Good flavor, but sweeter than I like since I forgot the strawberry purée brings its own sugar. Next time I'm going 0%. The hot black sesame latte with oat milk (also 30%) was the standout. Warm, balanced, and genuinely comforting. I also grabbed the limited black sesame and espresso pudding roll cake. Moist, bouncy, great sesame flavor, and the espresso pudding inside was delicious. Pricey, but at least it tastes like effort. Drinks and desserts aren't cheap, but the portions are big enough that it feels fair. Overall, a relaxed spot with solid drinks and a roll cake worth repeating.

    If you love great quality matcha and desserts that are super fluffy, moist, unique, and "not too sweet" I highly recommend giving Temp & Time a try! This very small and intimate cafe is a hidden gem in Downtown Mountain View. It's perfect for studying or just catching up with a friend. There are about three tables and a few bar seats at this location. Since this place has limited hours, I recommend coming here around opening (12 pm) b/c some flavors of roll cakes usually sell out pretty fast. Also, beware, this cafe is located in a small alley way (next to Drunken Monk), so the parking situation is VERY crammed. Be prepared to parallel park in a tiny area or park around a neighboring business to get here. During my most recent visit, I had a strawberry matcha latte w/ oatmilk and shared a thai tea and matcha roll cake with a friend. The matcha latte was smooth, deep green, grassy, and slightly sweet (50%). The strawberry puree added a nice touch of sweetness and didn't taste artificial. However, the star of the show here were the roll cakes! The thai tea roll cake melted in my mouth and had a perfectly soft and airy texture. The matcha roll cake was vibrant green and had a strong matcha flavor. I really enjoyed the marbling of both fresh whipped cream and flavored cream in each roll. It was done very well and looked beautiful! If you love matcha and Asian-fusion desserts, please give this place a try! I will be back here to try more of their delicious treats c:

    Flavor (4/5): Tried their black sesame latte which was caffeine free! Very nutty sesame flavor without being overly roasted. Not grainy either. Pairs well with another milk sub (oat, almond). Their hojicha cake was also decent! Moist and the cream was very flavorful. Instagram Worthy (5/5): From the parking lot and exterior of this place you don't expect it to be as cute as it is! Very Japanese/Korean cafe inspired for the seating, lighting hits right during golden hour! Cute cafe to get some pics in. Service (4/5): Self order on the kiosk, drinks came out pretty quick! Takeaways: Parking lot in the back is definitely challenging as it's not enough space. Cafe itself is small with limited seating when it gets busy. Very vibey tho!

    A small aesthetic cafe located behind Drunken Monk. I recommend coming early as most of the drinks we wanted to try were already out of stock by 1pm. There's a kiosk at the front next to a fridge displaying roll cakes and desserts. They looked so good we were so tempted to buy a cake, maybe next time! We ordered a strawberry matcha latte, hojicha strawberry latte, and a coffee cream latte. Highly recommend getting the hojicha strawberry latte. The coffee was too milky and the matcha was lost in the strawberry matcha latte. Since the drinks were on the pricier side, we definitely expected more. Our drinks came out a few minutes after ordering. The cafe is fairly quiet so it'd be a prime spot if you're looking for a place to study or get work done.

    The shop is very tucked away so it's easily to miss the turn. Parking is also limited. Ambiance is nice, clean and quiet. For me it's a bit too quiet since there isnt any background music. So it's a bit awkward for friends catching up. More for studying i would say since there's quite some good spaces and tables. There isnt any ordering experience since you order on the tablet. But the staff seems very attentive and accesible if you have any questions. For food and drinks, I dont have much to say. We got the hojicha and it's just okay. 30% sweet yet still too sweet for us. We also got the jasmine tea with house milk. Jasmine is definitely overbrewed since its so bitter at the end. I would say drinks are pricey for its quality. Cakes are decent. A tad bit sweet but acceptable for being a good treat once in a while. I was really tempted with their cheesecakes so i might come back for them.

    I've seen this place when I dined next door and finally got to try it with my friend. The parking situation sucks because the parking lot behind the building is extremely small and usually fill up fast with customers for the restaurant next door. I ended up parking along El Camino Real instead of turning into the parking lot. I got less sweet for the strawberry matcha and it was honestly still way too sweet. It might be the strawberry syrup but the drink was too sweet and the matcha flavor wasn't really strong. The inside is nice though. A great spot for studying or just catching with friends.

    When downtown Palo Alto took their affogato off the menu, I couldn't find anything at Blue Bottle…read moreCoffee in Palo Alto and San Jose that really stood out. But, I decided to try it again in case they had anything new. I had their Caffe Mocha made with their ganache chocolate. Interesting taste. Not bad. It was filled to the top before I remembered to take a picture. The brown butter blondie wasn't overly sweet. Service was okay. We ordered from the cashier and 2 of the 3 baristas disappeared so it took a few minutes. It was a bit busy. Seating on the inside against the wall and the 4 tables outside had a good turn around. I missed the affogato on the menu so I will have something to try next time I'm here.

The coffee shop was packed, even in the late afternoon, but we waited because we didn't see too many other coffee shops in the mall. Despite the long line, the baristas were upbeat and kept the line moving. In the mood for something refreshing, I ordered the NOLA cold brew with cinnamon and honey. My cold brew was prepared immediately, but my friends had to wait 15+ minutes for their Shakerados. The NOLA cold brew was sweet and refreshing - the light cinnamon and honey added just the right amount of sweetness to the smooth cold brew. We took our drinks to go, since we still had plenty of shopping to do!

    Been going to La Baguette for as long as I can remember…read more I usually get their sliced pound cake for a little pick me up during my shopping trips. I've tried lots of varieties, like marble, blueberry, seasonal flavors etc. and they're all good. They also offer a lot of different baked goods and cakes, and every food item I've tried has been good. I personally do not recommend their coffee though as the few times I've tried their drinks have all come out to be inconsistent (sometimes too sweet, too much milk, bitter espresso).

    We were looking for a pastry after getting coffee around the corner…read more Plenty of options here in the forms of pastries, cakes, baguettes, even sandwiches. Opted for a cheese danish and a butter croissant. When it was our turn to order the cashier provided a straightforward transaction. Grabbed our pastries placed them on the table we paid and she moved on to the next. We walked out and when we sat down noticed she gave us the wrong pastry. No croissant in sight. We were too far down to go back and get the right item. The cheese danish was not flaky which was a bummer. Very sweet glaze. The shop is set up nicely with all their offerings. Small space to wait in line to order. Seating outside. Customer service was dry. Not welcoming. Food was ok but not memorable enough to go back.
