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

Temp & Time is a hidden gem in Palo Alto! It's not the easiest to get to - the cafe shares a small…read moreplaza with Drunken Monk and parking is extremely difficult so be warned. This cafe specializes in Asian inspired drinks, roll cakes, basque cheesecakes, as well as Japanese puddings. The interior is super Japandi / minimalistic aesthetic. Their desserts have also been officially marked as "not too sweet" by my inlaws so you know it's got that Asian parent stamp of approval! I haven't tried the basque cheesecakes and the puddings, but have been a repeat customer for their roll cakes. So far I've tried their matcha, coffee, and black sesame roll cakes and all are fantastic. Super strong flavors and the chiffon cake isn't too dry. I will say for a single slice the price is quite steep, but it /is/ located in Palo Alto so rent is not cheap I would assume. Also if you wanted an entire roll, you have to order 2 business days in advance.

I love me some good coffee!! Found this place randomly while visiting and glad I stumbled upon it…read more The line was a little long but it moves pretty quick. There's a few tables and chairs to enjoy your drink and/or pastry and it's shaded. The patio is pet friendly. We ordered the iced filter coffee and it was nice, strong and smooth. We also got their seasonal flavor orange cream latte and it was so delicious. The orange was light in flavor but enough to taste the orange notes and the consistency with the whole milk was decadent. Not too sweet. Definitely will come back when in the area again.

Certainly a neighborhood feel with dogs, strollers, and the typical guys on laptops. There was only one seat available and it was positioned in the back row facing the crowd. FWIW: I'm not a coffee sage who demand specific regions, roast or rules. Flight: cold brew, cortado, shot and latte. No sugar. Two types of beans with cards describing where they come from and what flavors to expect. Experience was pleasant, even though the place was crowded. The coffees themselves were just ok. I was told what order to drink them in and I finished (90%), all but the iced version - something about the light roast with sour notes really put me off. Reasons to return: People watching- excellent. So many strollers with human and canines in them. Stayed for 1.5 hrs Coffee- good. Didn't love everything they served but they were purposeful in teaching about beans and prep. Service- fine. Person taking the order was lovely, person serving the order was clinical. No smiles on this guy.

I wasn't sure when I'd get a chance to come back since I don't live nearby, so when I joined a book club meetup and found out it was being held here, I was so excited! I love how many different seating options they have. There are indoor and outdoor tables, a grassy area, and even swings, they really have something for everyone :) They also offer yoga classes in the outdoor area, and it looks like they regularly have different activities and events going on based on the posters they have up. As for the coffee, there's a cute little walk-up counter where you place your order, and they call your name when it's ready. The staff was really friendly, and I thought it was a great idea to have all the event and activity information displayed right by the ordering area. My latte was excellent, and I love that they offer ceramic cups if you're staying to enjoy your coffee there. I honestly loved the vibe of this place. It has such a welcoming, wholesome, community feel, and I can't wait to come back again :)

I saw they had a Seasonal Menu, so I tried the Strawberry Matcha Oat Milk Latte. I had to wait a couple of minutes for my drink and it tasted just okay. The matcha wasn't as rich as I'd like it to be. But I would love to try their Lavender Latte next time! The ambiance is also so nice, there's lots of places to work at both indoors and outdoors.

I finally had the pleasure of going here, and it wasn't too busy. The person who took my order was super nice and helpful in narrowing down items to try. Everything here is made to order, so they do recommend using the app. Especially if you are in a hurry. I ordered: 1. Vietnamese coffee with salted cream: Surprisingly, this was a little sweet to me. I do recommend sipping it, instead of drinking it through a straw to get the full flavor. 2. Croffle w/ nutella: This was crispy and chewy. The nutella gave it a messy yumminess 3. Egg, cheese, and bacon croissant: This was delicious and surprisingly it didn't have that greasy oily feeling. It is very hearty. 4. Perfect green smoothie: My co-worker loved this and found it very delicious. Perfect balance of all the items. I look forward to coming back soon and will pre-order next time.

Also, the bread they serve with it is ridiculous- perfectly crusty on the outside, soft on the inside...totally worth the carbs.

Solid little spot for flowers and coffee…read more Decent flower bouquets starting around $20, which I thought was pretty reasonable. They also have fresher bouquets in the cooler, so definitely take a look in there before choosing one. The Americano was surprisingly good. I wasn't expecting much, but it ended up being one of the highlights of the visit. Service was okay. The staff member was working alone and understandably focused on getting the drinks out, so there wasn't much interaction. Overall, a convenient spot if you're looking for a simple bouquet and a surprisingly solid coffee in the same place.

The…read moreinterior is both spacious and cozy at the same time, and there's just so much to look at - plants, art, vintage, animal skulls, cool furniture, mannequins, etc. Overall, I like this place more as a plant shop and less for coffee. I've purchased a little spider plant and an alocasia polly, which have both been great. The employees are knowledgeable about plants and give great recommendations, especially regarding succulents. They also have a fun selection of cards and gifts by local artists, although some of the prices are a bit unreasonable (like $40 for a tiny planter pot). The coffee shop is fine, but less exciting. Most recently, I tried the Bicerin off their seasonal specials, which was a Cortado with Nutella. I thought the Nutella would be somewhat mixed in for sweetness, but it was literally just a teaspoon of Nutella in my drink. I've tried their Chaga Matcha in the past, and it was also just okay. Will return for the plants and ambiance!
