A must whenever I am in the area!…read more The layout of the space just makes it look crowded and full all the time. The line gets backed up because they have two kiosks you can order from. Your order comes out pretty quickly. My favorite thing to get is the matcha with the okinawa boba. So good. The matcha tastes great and the boba is perfectly chewy. The gelato is creamy and not too sweet. Highly recommend!!!

They are Just thick…read moreenough and spongy enough to hold the soft serve. - 4.0: Oat Rose soft serve: Available daily 10am-2pm. Oat milk, vanilla, cardamom, rose water, sea salt. Sprinkled with pistachio. Waaaaay too expensive at $8. It's the most overpriced soft-serve in the history of soft-serve. Also: The flavor is very muted. But it goes great with the Jordanian pancakes. - 4.0: espresso shot. A respectable Italian style shot with structure. But very sour. - 2.5: Dessert rose latte. Flavor is too muted.

Super impressed with how the staff handled the Sunday rush, keeping everything organized and warm (coffee and pastries came out together!). Love the vibe and that they have plenty of seating with a creative menu that makes me want to try everything. Definitely worth hunting down this slightly off-the-path spot. Already planning my next visit!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Temp & Time is one of the underrated matcha tea shops! When you drive on El Camino Real, it may be…read moreeasy to miss as there is a small entryway to the parking lot for Temp & Time. The inside has such a pretty aesthetic, with a few inside tables to How to order is with an iPad kiosk, so card payment only. The menu selection is nice and simple, offering matcha and hojicha options. There are also small desserts like cheesecakes, cake rolls whole or slice and tiramisu. This tea shop is nice to go to after work to relax and decompress for a bit. Items my coworker and I ordered- * Hojicha Strawberry Latte - light sweet, soy milk and less ice. Rating 5/5 * Hojicha Cake Roll slice. Rating 5/5 * Matcha Latte - light sweet, oat milk, less ice. Rating 5/5

Decor is cute but sleek, vibes are calm, bar seating by window and a few small tables with seats. Ordering is fast at the kiosk front desk which doesn't seem to have a cashier. Lots of tasty drink options with milk choices and customizable sweetness and ice level - much appreciated! Cakes were delicious and filled with freshly whipped cream. We had the hojicha and biscoff ones. Not incredibly busy - a lot of orders were takeout. Cons: A lot of things were out of stock by 1pm but maybe this is due to Mother's Day. Pricey but the items were high quality. Store is a small footprint with limited utilities (no WiFi, bathroom was temporarily out of order). Parking is very difficult- it's on el Camino so the cars are unforgiving if you're trying to parallel park, and the road parallel by a block is not much better. It has an alley and a very cramped space in the back for a lot. Expect to walk.

Super cute cafe in a nice location!…read more It's located next to a driving range and aviation center with plenty of parking. This cafe is super nice to visit on a sunny morning - I usually like to get a cup of coffee and pastry for breakfast and just chill outside and chat. The service is good and the coffee is always good and consistent here. I always order an iced latte and there's never been any issues.

I saw this new matcha place pop up when I was in the Palo Alto area so I made an effort to try it…read moreout. It's a little bit out of the way from downtown and Stanford. It was hard to find as some others have mentioned. There is no sign on the outside you can see from the street. Google Maps also led us through the back into the parking lot so I had to recognize the outside from Yelp photos. I got the matcha fizz and was disappointed. In my photo, you can see that I got no ice and the matcha drink ended up being less than half of the cup. It was mostly foam, and unfortunately, the matcha wasn't very good. My husband got the hojicha latte and said the hojicha also didn't have a strong flavor. The area is quiet and has lots of seating, but I think it missed the mark on decor, vibe, and the drinks in general.
