I had a pleasant experience at the Bean Scene Cafe this past Friday. Parking is free and plentiful in the surrounding lots. There was no wait to order at the counter, and about 15 minutes for my food to be served to my table around lunch time. Staff was super friendly and helpful. I got the sausage & cheese omelette (with provolone instead of swiss), pancakes without syrup, and an iced mocha with nonfat milk. Wow, everything was amazing. The iced mocha had strong flavors of coffee and mocha. The side of pancakes came with a stack of two good-sized fluffy and buttery pieces, a yummy treat. The omelette was tasty, with the ingredients spread nicely making every single bite a savory delight. The dish came with toast which I discarded since I already had the pancakes. It was such a satisfying meal altogether.

Real Coffee made well. Old school coffee shop vibe. Nice lunch offerings. Atmosphere: Usually 80's and 90's music. Most people on devices some play games or having small meeting. Daily papers for sale And hats and T shirt merch. Coffee Refills $1.75. Central location in the heart of Sunnyvale. Solid service, sometimes it's very busy so it will be on slower side. Outdoor seating available.

Been here a million of times! Love the food and normally I order a vanilla iced latte. I have tried the slush drinks and they are always a hit! Service is really fast and the cafe has a cozy vibe. Perfect for dates, studying, reading, or hanging out!

Have been coming to this cafe for over 15 years. My favorite drink is the Black Forest Mocha!!! They also have pastries and lunch items. Great place to gather or work out of.

Visited this café early in the morning to grab breakfast and coffee, and I loved the vibe. There were groups of people sipping coffee, chatting, working, and reading,it felt like a slow, relaxed morning. I ordered the Black Forest latte and an everything bagel with cream cheese. The latte was really great, with a nice balance of chocolate and cherry flavors. Having tried many New York bagels, I felt the toasted everything bagel with cream cheese was a bit dry and hard. I'd definitely come back for the latte and the vibe, but probably not for the bagel.

I stopped by on a Sunday afternoon. The place had good crowd. I went for the fan favorite Black Forest mocha. It was very good with a strong chocolate taste. Mango mousse was just ok. I thought it was harder than I would like.

Came here with some friends to order coffee to go. I ordered the Black Forest Mocha. It was good! Loved how there were many choices of coffees that had different flavors. I will need to go back and try the others!

We swung by bean scene cafe for a quick breakfast. Luckily this cafe opens early compared to others in the area. We got the almond joy mocha and the Black Forest mocha. We also got everything bagels with cream cheese. The service was super fast. We expected the service to take longer cz of the line and were left pleasantly surprised. The mochas tasted amazing and the bagels were surprisingly fresh. The ambience is a bit dated but we noticed a lot of people coming in here to work cz of the abundant seating. Definitely a good cafe to check out in Sunnyvale downtown!

Definitely your neighborhood coffee shop. Family owned with a great staff. They are personable, professional, and they make you feel like a regular. My regular is an espresso and (sometimes) a biscotti. Over the years I actually haven't eaten here, but we have had pastries & desserts, which are very good! There is local art on the walls and an old school coffee shop feel inside. There are plenty of tables outside, but it can get busy on weekends. Luckily, there are plenty of benches around and there's nothing wrong with grabbing a seat on the curb since the street is closed to cars.

Lovely coffee and a quaint atmosphere. I ordered a cappuccino, perfectly done! My friend ordered a Philly Cheese steak and liked it.

I went on a Thursday between 2-4 p.m. and really enjoyed the space…read more Ambiance: The space is beautiful and bright, with large windows and high ceilings. It was very quiet during my visit, and conversations were kept to a minimum, which made it easy to concentrate. Even though it's located right across from a Caltrain station, I couldn't hear the trains at all. Parking & Accessibility: Parking was a breeze for me. I parked in the garage in one of the guest-reserved spots, and there's also street parking available. Since it's directly across from a Caltrain station, it's also easily accessible by public transportation. Seating: The café is connected to a leasing office, so be mindful of where you sit. The leasing agents do monitor the area and make sure café customers stay within the designated Coffeebar seating area. Drinks & Service: I ordered a loose-leaf tea and asked for it iced. The staff was warm and friendly, and as they handed me my drink, they said, "I hope you enjoy the tea." I really appreciate little details like that--it made the service feel more thoughtful and welcoming. Overall, I would definitely come back, especially when I need a quiet space to focus and get some deep work done.

Only one tall seat; wish there were more tall seats which is healthier :(…read more What can I say I love CoffeeBar despite all the cons.

I was worried about the long lines and potential wait since it was a hot, sunny day but there actually weren't many people at all. We were able to order immediately, waited a few minutes for our drinks, and headed into the church lobby to enjoy and chat without sitting under the sun. They have a fun seasonal menu, so I ordered their Whiskey Cream Latte (iced, decaf, not too sweet). They said they make their own whiskey syrup that enhances the coffee and leaves a slight, smokey taste. It was really creative and definitely gave the usual latte a little bit of a twist- I'd get it again. The ladies working the coffee cart were really nice and pleasant, making this a great experience that I'd come back for again.

I tried the maple matcha latte and thought it wasn't anything special. Not the worst i've tried, but nothing spectacular unfortunately. Felt like the matcha was a little grainy and bitter, not creamy and smooth how I usually prefer it. Maybe try their coffee instead as I saw most people drinking coffee and it seems like they have more interesting flavors for coffee compared to matcha!

I was surprised to see a scripture reference on the seal. As for the tiramisu, I tried the classic as well as the mango tiramisu. I wished the mango had two layers of ladyfingers (the spongy part) like the classic did; instead, the whipped cream was 2/3 of the layers instead of 2/3 being ladyfingers. The classic was great though, no complaints. I'm curious to try other flavors next. Service was quick as there was no line. There is one small table outside for seating.

This spot is a bit of a mixed bag--I love the tiramisu, but can't say I recommend the drinks. I…read morestopped by several hours before closing, but they were already sold out of almost half of the drinks menu, so my ordering was limited. It's a very small shop, and you'll most likely have to take your order to-go or scout for seating elsewhere in the plaza. I fully vouch for the ube tiramisu! It's a really cute dessert with a lovely smooth ube cream, and the Biscoff crumble pairs well with the nutty ube flavor. I am interested in returning to try their other tiramisus. Unfortunately, the drinks I tried (namely their cold brew latte and Hate My Boss signature) were not great. The coffee to milk ratio in the latte wasn't great, and the Hate My Boss tasted primarily of sugar, even at a less-sweet specification. I will say that I think their business is focused on its desserts, with their drinks as a sort of side attraction. Their drinks are on the inexpensive side, I'll give them that, but not so inexpensive that I feel like I can excuse their shortcomings. For what it's worth, the service was great, their store was clean (albeit a bit cluttered), and their desserts are tasty, so I can recommend it, but only for their desserts.
