    Matcha-Horchata
    Esmerlada R.

    This coffee shop is a 5 min walk from Cal-Train! So convenient if you're in a rush! I love the different esthetics coffee shops give, and this one had a very friendly cozy environment. I'm on my coffee journey! I wouldn't consider myself an expert, but for what is its worth I thought my match horchata was very good I'm on the hunt for good coffee shops and this one made my time there very memorable. I got a postcard of the coffee I purchased and it made my experience one of a kind! (Only complaint is when I order the woman who took it didn't give me the postcard I saw that the person in front of me get it for free with her coffee purchase so I asked and she gave it to me. I would say maybe consistency with that would be nice. Other then that I absolutely loved them) Check them out

    No straw so....

    I've been putting off re-writing this review for some time because I used to love this place so much, and kept hoping the poor sandwiches were one-offs done by a certain person, but after about a year of issues now, I'm going to have to rewrite my review. I've recommended this place to so many people, so it's a shame that I'm always disappointed with my orders now. And it also looks poorly on me when the same issues happen to people I've recommended this place to. I always order extra bacon ((as did my friend twice now because she gave them a second try based on my (former) love for the place and their sandy's)) and whoever makes the sandwiches now (gosh I miss Andrew) either doesn't add the extra bacon, or slathers it in mayo. See images of how they used to look vs how they look now. I've had to send my husband back for extra bacon on more than one occasion and today it's DRIPPING in mayo when I didn't ask for extra mayo. Amazed that this is the new baseline for mayo. They also didn't give us a straw and we are on the go today (seen of image in car), so now I can't drink my drink. Please make your sandwiches good again; I would love to keep being a regular, or even a customer of yours at all still.

    Cute little shop, lots of like cartoon figure stickers? Not sure if that was part of the name. Coffee was more on the sweet side - almost tasted like ice cream for my vanilla latte, but a good coffee. Togo cups felt like to go sodas lol. Would go again!

    Second time here since first time was 2 years ago. I got the BLAT sandwich and it was great. It came with a perfect portion and cut in half for you. I also got the matcha horchata. That was good too both flavors were definitely there.

    Iced Vanilla Latte (Your Way!)

    I got the iced vanilla latte and wow. The shot was pulled perfectly, great milk to syrup ratio. I've tried quite few coffee shops in SJ and this is the best. It's a very unique themed shop too. Parking is a bit hard so I parked in the Whole Foods lot, and it's a 2 minute walk over to their shop! Highly recommend you try them!

    Small but comfy seating. They also have seating outside.

    Just happened to find this place when I signed up my son for cooking camp a few doors down. It's a cute little cozy spot that have comfy chairs inside. I tried their matcha horchata and it's an interesting balanced drink. I can taste both the horchata and matcha without it overpowering each other. My friend and I got the same drink and we both thought it was good. Can't wait to try the other drinks too. Love the vibe here!

    Had breakfast from this cafe this morning. Ordered a bacon egg and cheese bagel, apple hand pie, banana bread, and an iced hot chocolate. Bagels have been one of my favorite foods since I was a kid, but lately I haven't had a taste for them. This morning I thought a bagel sandwich sounded good, but unfortunately I couldn't eat it. It was my issue, not a problem with the food. The apple hand pie was scrumptious. I liked that it wasn't overly sweet. The iced hot chocolate wasn't great, but that was because I ordered it with half sweetness and it needed more. I'm saving the banana bread for later, but I have a feeling it will be good warmed up.

    Good sandwich ft the coffee I threw away seconds later.

    I used to love coming here back when it was Hannah, so I'm not sure if this is due to the management change or the fact that my palate has changed, but I did not like my coffee at all. If you really like milky coffee or just don't really enjoy the taste of coffee, then this is the place for you! I personally enjoy a strong-tasting latte, and this definitely wasn't that. I really couldn't tell that there was any coffee in my latte, it just tasted like milk. I ended up throwing it away because it wasn't enjoyable to me at all. I'm giving three stars for the free cutie they added to our order, which was such a pleasant surprise and for the sandwich, which was pretty good.

    Fun pictures in my espresso!

    Stopped in for my favorite (and rare) off menu item Affogato. I discovered that the long time owners, who have honored the original Hannah's quality and many of the original items have decided to rename it to Bavetta Coffee, visiting the website will give you their take on the transition. Personally, it seems like the right time to take on the ownership. As a frequent customer, I appreciate the honor they have shown to the brand. You can look back to earlier reviews to see that Hannah's was one of the stable places to come and safely interact with other humans during COVID-19 a psychological life-line the original Hannah executed herself. For one, I'll be eternally grateful for that contribution to our neighborhood. Congratulations to Ryan and Salome for this shift and gratitude for keeping a quality coffee place in a challenging environment ('nuff said).

    Amazing coffee shop! I am glad we stopped by on our way back home. I was curious to try their famous A-A-ARON drink. It was a perfect combination of sweetness. The ladies there were friendly and helpful. We grabbed a couple of pastries, but I don't remember their names, so I'll describe them through pictures. Street Parking is available, restrooms were clean.

    I love the cute world building artwork and comics that this place does! It has a character (literally and figuratively). Plus, the barista who served me was super talented-- the coffee both looked and tasted amazing. I'll be coming back to try some of their other menu items!

    Came here on a Sunday with a friend at 4:30 pm! It was somewhat busy with interior dining tables filled. However, it was quick service to get your drinks. It's a cute, homey interior and hidden gem for the DTSJ community. There's street parking available and they have a bathroom for customers. I got a passion fruit tea, and it was so refreshing. I chugged that drink so fast since it was good! A good stop for drinks if you're in the area. Check them out!

    Mr Sunshine will brighten up your morning just as it did for me! I got their A-A-Ron and every sip just gives me joy. Relatively quick with their service and love the ambiance of the place. Going to be my go to coffee/brunch spot when I'm in the area!

    Really lovely little coffee shop that leans into that industrial warehouse vibe in the best way…read more The coffee was great--I ended up trying both on-tap cold brews on the day we went because I didn't realize that buying a bag of whole bean coffee came with a free coffee drink. With some coffees a second cup will give me a stomach ache (especially since I drink my cold brews black and bitter like my soul), but I had no problems with their cold brews! I also got the vegan stonefruit scone (baked by Sweet Dragon) and while a little on the dry side (common with scones), paired extremely well with the coffee and had good flavor. Husband got a cappuccino and a strawberry mini pie and was extremely pleased with his order. The service is friendly, but some things may have been new on the day we went. They almost forgot my cold brew until we asked at the counter, as well as stating that they didn't have anything to heat up my husband's strawberry pie (which seems odd, since a little toaster oven seems like a simple fix for that), but apparently it was fantastic at room temperature anyway. Seating was absolutely full when we got there and we were lucky to snag a table as another couple left, so it seems like a popular Saturday morning spot. Several folks were working on laptops, and it seems like a kid-friendly place. The decor is a clean and modern/trendy industrial style, which works well for the space, and the windows provide nice daylight. Overall, a good coffee shop and I am really happy to see vegan pastry options! My husband is getting into pinball, which was part of the motivation to come out and try Chromatic, so I am sure we'll be back again next time he wants to hit up Slingshot (in the same building), and I look forward to the coffee and treats!

The seating area is quite limited for the large crowd it attracts, making the atmosphere inside feel a bit chaotic at peak times. Fortunately, the baristas are super polite and work fast, keeping the long lines moving efficiently. The coffee menu and the retail bean selection are both impressive. I decided to try a dulce de leche coffee. While I was expecting a strong caramel profile of dulce de leche, the flavor turned out to be fairly subtle rather than prominent. It added a significant sweetness, but without knowing the order beforehand, identifying the exact flavor would have been tough. That said, the coffee itself was still refreshing The high quality of the coffee bean really shone through, delivering a rich aroma and the ideal caffeine kick for a breezy morning. Great coffee beans and fast service make it worth dropping in, even if the indoor seating situation is a bit tight.

    After dinner, we found ourselves on the hunt for something sweet. As we were walking by Cafe Maiko,…read morethe matcha-themed menu immediately caught our attention, as none of us can resist a good matcha treat. Originally, I was planning to order a matcha latte, but one person in our group was craving ice cream while another wanted tapioca. Thankfully, we found the perfect compromise: a matcha soft serve topped with tapioca that managed to satisfy everyone's cravings in a single order. I was pleasantly surprised by how bold the matcha flavor was. It had a rich, authentic matcha taste without feeling overly heavy or bitter, and the soft serve itself was smooth and refreshing. The tapioca was another pleasant surprise. Even sitting on top of the ice cream, the pearls remained wonderfully chewy rather than hardening, which is something I've experienced at other shops. Overall, it was a simple treat that really hit the spot. If you're a matcha lover looking for a refreshing dessert, Cafe Maiko is definitely worth a stop.

The only thing I wished was…read moremore matcha and less sweet, but I don't think they let you customized because they didn't ask me.

I've enjoyed a few of their specialty seasonal drinks but those have never become core menu items. I am talking some really great items like mango matcha's, strawberry matcha's, lavendar latte's etc that I have thoroughly enjoyed but their core menu is not something I ever want to order from. They have really great stuffed croissants but those are also seasonal! My office catered pastries from here once and I still think about the spinach and cheese croissant we had alll the time! I have never seen it in their case though. And while they are really great, ~$8 for a pastry is highway robbery. Parking here is very difficult and I think most people who come here live nearby enough to walk. You gotta hope to get lucky with some street parking as they have no designated parking areas. I've had several odd cashier interactions where I am met with blank stares and no dialogue as I order. Today took the cake, however. When I ordered, the cashier looked at me confused. I picked up their menu and pointed to the item one I wanted. The cashier had to come find me again after placing my order to confirm it again. They have a seasonal chai listed and 'can be made into a pumpkin chai by request.' There was confusion around it coming with a shot of espresso and because my stomach has been completely wrecked since I had it, I think the they must have put two shots into my drink. In the past 5 hours, I've used the restrooms 4 times and eventually projectile vomited. I don't drink coffee often and had this in ONE sitting. I realize this is a unique experience as I do not drink espresso often but wanted to share so you all understand how strong their coffee is and seeing as how its across SCU, it DOES make sense why so many people come here. Upset is the least of what I feel right now and can confidently share I will not be back. Shits fucked up. No pun intended

    I have frequented Blue Bottle at Santana Row since it opened, typically once or twice per month…read more Not a regular but also not a first timer. The coffee and service have been excellent, until today. First, my coffee order was lukewarm- which is not a problem to complain, just correct-- to which I asked barista to warm. She said she couldn't warm but she would make a replacement. At that point I asked "You don't want this back, do you?" holding up my cup. She said she didn't if I wanted to keep drinking it. About 3 minutes after the interaction, while she was making the replacement another barista told me that if they were going to make a replacement coffee it was policy for customer to exchange the coffee that was not up to standard. I was surprised so I asked her to repeat that. After she did, I surrendered the coffee, without comment. I was with company so I did not make a point to argue. I thanked the barista for making the replacement and she said to avoid issues ask for the coffee to be "extra hot" at the register. Frankly, I have ordered coffee at this location many times when the coffee was too hot & I needed to request a coffee cup sleeve or 2nd cup to avoid discomfort. But I have no problem asking for extra hot coffee. The bigger issue is that when I returned to complain that I had never being asked to exchange or surrender a lukewarm or incorrect coffee in order to get the proper replacement and that it is not good business, I was told the policy was to let customer make the decision whether they wanted to give the coffee back-- unless it was the discretion of the barista that the customer just wanted more coffee. The implication was clear-- the barista didn't think the coffee was too cold but instead that I just wanted 2 cups to myself. This type of judgement is ridiculous. What I wanted was to wait for a hot cup of coffee. So what if I was drinking the cold cup while I waited. Was it that important for you to throw it away? My response given this new information was "I will never order here again, but I love Blue Bottle so I'll be going to Los Gatos, not that you (supervising barista) would care about losing me as a customer." Then the cashier spoke up and said, "I'm sorry the cup was not hot but it sounds like you like the cup at Los Gatos... " so I may as well go there, to paraphrase his full comment. That was unbelievable to hear. The supervising barista continued that the information would be shared with the manager "downstairs"-- and I asked their name, as well. Regardless to say, I always tip the bill. And it's not a cheap cup of coffee. But I've always felt it is 100% worth it. However now I'm left with my feeling that not only the initial response but also the treatment of my complaint has been disappointing. Because where I order coffee is an experience rather than simply a transaction and that I like to go where I am appreciated rather than incorrectly judged, I am more than disappointed. The impact of being disappointed by one of my favorite coffee shops is really a bummer that makes me want to not to buy Blue Bottle there-- or at any other cafe or through subscription (which I also pay for 3 freshly roasted bags per month).

I've seen people study or do work in there but it's not the most quiet place. Staff is always friendly to us when we're ordering drinks. We tried the Guava Matcha with Guava Cream, and this was easily a 10/10 for me. The li hing powder on top adds such a unique, slightly tangy flavor that makes the drink really stand out. This is the drink we always order whenever we visit this place. We also tried the Double Matcha Melon Matcha, which was good, but I still preferred the guava matcha. My husband likes the Melon Matcha better though. The Vietnamese Coffee was very strong for me and on the less-sweet side. The Pandan Latte wasn't really for us either. It wasn't very sweet, and we didn't get much pandan flavor. We've definitely had better pandan lattes elsewhere.

I know these aren't identical drinks, but I've been craving something good with melon flavor, and this hit the spot. For the 2nd drink, I got one of our usual go-to's, the guava matcha. Pretty good overall. I've knocked on their prices before. Still steep and more than I'd like to pay for my matcha, but it IS good. Still, costs about $1.5-2+ more than other places in my experience.
