Caffeinated Cowboy is a cute drive-thru coffee spot. It is not really a place to meet up with friends, but what it lacks in ambiance, it more than makes up for with its coffee and pastries. They offer a great variety of both fun and classic coffee drinks, along with a nice selection of pastries. I ordered a French Toast Latte with a croissant. We placed our order on one side of the kiosk and drove around to pick it up, and it was ready by the time we got there. I was a little worried the latte might be too sweet, but it had just the right balance and excellent flavor. The croissant was fresh, soft, and exactly what I was hoping for. Prices are a bit higher than those at some chain coffee shops, but I would much rather support a small business. Next time I am in town, I am getting my coffee at Caffeinated Cowboy again. read more

Cute tiny new coffee shop in the neighborhood. I stopped by on my way to my nail appointment as I am always open to supporting small businesses. I came in through the drive thru, a couple of cars were ahead of me that were waiting to order. When I reached the window, I took a look at the menu decided to try the Bee Happy. I didn't notice different drink size or milk options, but when I placed my order I was asked if whole milk was fine, in which I said yes. I paid for my drink and proceeded to get stuck in that weird turn angle. Sadly it's terribly tight to turn and fear for others that may want to swing by with larger vehicles. But once I was able to get to the pick up window, I was greeted by a kind gentleman that confirmed my order then handed me my drink. The Bee Happy matcha drink was pleasant. I will definitely be back to try something new but next time I will walk to window instead of going through the drive thru. read more

This was our first time here. The small lone pink building in the middle of the parking lot stood out so much that it made it easy to spot in the shopping plaza. There is a "walk-up" order window to place your orders. And then beside the walk up window, there is the Drive-Up "Order Here" window where you place your and pay followed by a short drive to the other side of the tiny building to the "Pick Up" window. We did the Drive Through... and the staff is super kind and helpful. They answered questions we had, they offered recommendations, and even accommodated requests we had for one of the drinks. Something that I really appreciated was the fact that each window had a set of fresh flowers. It really added a nice touch, it is something small, but really made the interaction space more personable and cozy. The order: Toasted Saddle -Sipped it before mixing in the marshmallow cold foam, and it was delicious. Smooth, not overpowering and mildly sweet. Once I mixed the Marshmallow cold foam into the beverage, it became slightly more creamy... but if you want a more creamy version, I recommend requesting it be done as a latte. Toasted Saddle (Latte) -My friend let me taste his. He had mixed the Marshmallow cold foam, and his drink was creamy and sweet. An even balance of both coffee and creamy sweetness. Tira-Miss-U: -Another friend ordered this drink, i don't recall if they ordered it as a latte.... But it did look and taste very similar to the toasted saddle latte. These all had a forward tasting of sweetness with a subtle smooth coffee as the follow up flavor. I would definitely like to come back and get these drinks again, and all the other drinks so I can experience the entire "rodeo/menu" ! read more

I am embarrassed to admit that since they've opened I have come here every week. It is close to work and I love that I don't have to get out of my car. And I mean cmon it's pink! My drink is consistently good which I appreciate and the girls at the window are always so nice. I've also tried their breakfast options and they were also really good. They will most definitely be seeing me again lol. Also love that they finally have their branded name on a sticker on the cup. Random I know but it just adds a lil something read more

Stopped by Caffeinated Cowboys in Pleasanton on their grand opening/red ribbon cutting day, and it was a great experience overall. The drive-thru setup is super convenient, and even with the opening day buzz, the service was quick and friendly. I ordered the banana matcha, and it's honestly the best one I've had in Pleasanton so far. The flavor was smooth, well-balanced, and not overly sweet,you can tell they put care into their drinks. Really solid first impression. I'll definitely be coming back to try more off the menu. read more

Medicore coffee that is Starbucks quality level. Got the cold brew and it was on the same level as Starbucks so not anything great. Got the tiramsu but as a latte and wow that is the most artifical tasting drink I have ever had. I could not take more then a few sips before my mouth was coated in a film and dried out. Needless to say I did not keep drinking it. Also there are no prices on the drink menu, which is very strange. There is no shade to wait if you do walk up and it gets crowded in that tiny space quick. I would not recommend or come back. Much better local coffee shops in the area. Social media hyped this place up and it is 100% not worth it. read more

I was planning on going to the Philz directly across from this place (huge fan of Philz), but saw this cute lil drive thru coffee shop and decided to support a new up & coming business instead. This place did not disappoint with the Howdy Honey drink. It wasn't too sweet. This drive thru has one side to place the order and then you drive around to the other side for pick up. Customer service was nice but did take a bit to time to get thru the line - that's something to consider in case you're in a rush and just need a quick drink. read more

Small cute shack that sells coffee, matcha, Italian sodas, and breakfast foods! Service was kind of slow but it's understandable since it's a small space and they allow drive through. Expect a 15 min ish wait time even on a non busy hour. I got the Monkey Matcha and my husband got the French Toast Brew. Monkey Matcha was not really for me. First, it tasted too sweet. I taste more syrup than matcha. Second, the matcha color was a but off putting. Not the satisfying bright green I was hoping for. If you want to try it, I recommend getting it less sweet just because there is a lot going on. My husband's French Toast Brew was very good though. I really like strong coffees and it's not overly milky or watered down by the ice. Overall, if I were to come back, I would get the coffee instead. In addition to the drinks, we also tried their sausage and egg breakfast burrito. It was okay... I feel like the insides were very mushy... read more

The workers were so nice and accommodating. Price was average for a flavored red bull and iced latte for $15 and some change. The coffee was ok, a little strong for my taste, but not as strong as peets coffee. Was not well mixed for sweetness was inconsistent. The seasonal flavor for the red bull was good and i enjoyed that more than coffee. Honestly, it was ok but overly hyped. read more

The staff is super helpful, very friendly, and very patient. They can help you pick your perfect drink. 4 stars because the drive through is tricky.

This place is so cute! I saw it on social media and wanted to give it a try. For starters, I love the pink theme!! The staff is nice and attentive. You can park your car and order at the window or you can drive through, order at the order window and then pick up at the pick up window on the opposite side. I came for a coffee and originally wanted to try their honey bee latte but then I saw that they had a seasonal menu so I decided to try the maple bloom latte. I absolutely inhaled my latte. The coffee was very rich and the drink was not too sweet. The blackberry, maple, and salt all paired so well with this drink and I'll definitely be back to try more drinks and get this drink again. I also was craving a cookie so I got a oatmeal raisin cookie and a chocolate chip cookie. In all honesty the chocolate chip cookie was good but not memorable... the OATMEAL cookie was the best cookie I've ever had in my life and I don't like oatmeal cookies. It was the perfect thin crispy cookie so if that's up your alley go try it out. This is my new go to coffee spot when I'm in this area!! read more

I'm not usually a big coffee drinker, but the owner was incredibly kind and took the time to help me find something I'd actually enjoy. She recommended their signature drink, the Toasted Saddle, and suggested swapping the cold brew for a latte since I prefer something smoother, and it was the perfect recommendation. The iced Toasted Saddle was honestly one of the best coffee drinks I've had! You can tell there's real care behind both the customer experience and the drinks.

This was simply one of the best sandwiches I've ever had…read more Driving through Livermore looking for a good sandwich, and yelp recommendations came through for me! This place (obviously) has great reviews so I decided to go. And it certainly meets the hype The staff was very friendly--I let them know it's my first time there so I needed a bit of time to look over the menu--and they were very helpful letting me know the options. I got the Friday I'm In Love and it was amazing. Great size, absolutely packed with meat, amazing flavor. This was a 10/10. The garlic spread was delicious, the slaw was seasoned very well, and everything was very fresh and flavorful. Dutch crunch also had great texture. My only possible complaint was that the meat wasn't very evenly distributed as you can see in the pic, but that's a very minor complaint. To reiterate, this was one of the best sandwiches I've ever had. Unfortunately I'm not very close to Livermore, but anytime I'm close by in the future, I absolutely want to stop by again. I highly, highly recommend this place for a sandwich!

The Americano sandwich has completely tasteless cole slaw and capicola that was inedible. Then poppers were hard and had a miniscule and thin piece of jalapeño. I literally had to to open one up to see if it actually had jalapeño in it. No heat, no taste, and hard. Avoid this place at all costs.

Let's start by saying that this is not my first choice for a Friday night social engagement. Mostly…read morebecause I don't like crowds, downtown hangouts, open seating, food with live music, loud music unless it's a concert-only event, etc. So why was I at this happenin' downtown P-town spot on a Fri night? Because my friend's band (shoutout to Bored of Directors!) was performing and of course that means I'm there to support him. The scene was everything I would normally avoid like the plague (or the "razor throat" strain of Covid-19 as it may be). Nevertheless, this place is cool! Very chill, not pretentious at all. Glad I scoured previous reviews so I knew what to expect: go past the front door and tables, down the alley to enter at the backyard; order drinks at the left side of the bar, food on the right. Picnic type tables scattered about for shared seating. "Stage" area set up in the corner. The beer selection was great, servers were friendly and helpful (and patient with us newbies). We did not have food so I can't comment on that. The band was awesome and played a mix of songs from 1970s thru 2000s. People were dancing, singing along. It was a great night! Not something I would choose to do if Bored of Directors wasn't playing, but when they come back around, I wouldn't hesitate! So go, have fun! There was a birthday celebration happening at a few of the tables in the front yard. Guests looked to be in their 30s to early 40s so I'm guessing that's the regular clientele here. Oh, and we found parking across the street in a center where a lot of businesses are. Some of the spots are reserved for the businesses but there are plenty that aren't. Or you could just risk the wrath of the Pleasanton PD and hope you don't get ticketed or towed. And of course, designate a driver before imbibing!

Solid. Super old school burger stand that looks like its been here a while, like before 680 was…read morebuilt, like when Pleasanton was more of a farm community versus an upper middle class to affluent town. Not sure how long this burger joint has been here, but I've always known of it by passing by many, many times over the course of 30+ years. But only tried just recently. There's seating both inside and outside. Inside the walls are totally covered with pictures of classic cars/trucks and interestingly enough of horse racing culture, since the county fairgrounds are super nearby. Pics of horses from past generations and their jockeys and owners. I thought that was an interesting local imprint. Mushroom Swiss Burger ($11/4*) So 'giant burger' is in their name. Even though the patty itself isn't monstrous, maybe a 1/3 lb at most, it is quite sizeable, much bigger than most fast food versions. After scarfing down my burger, I'd say I was slightly fuller than eating a double at In & Out. But this was also almost double on what I'd pay at In & Out. But since I'm a quintessential old schooler myself, I'll pay this price of admission here, no prob. The Burger Patty: Nice and juicy. Good quality and just flat top griddled. I had to season my patty with a little salt n pep from those packets. There's a special sauce that flavors the sandwich, a mayo/ketchup blend is my guess. The Produce: They use shredded lettuce and everything was quite fresh. Just very messy as lots of things will spill out on each bite. The cooked mushrooms were a little light but still noticeable in most bites. The Cheese: The 'swiss' labeled is basically a white colored American cheese, super soft and gooey. Not my fave, but a burger may be the only time I welcome American cheese. The Bun: They use basic sesame American buns. Super factory quality, but again for the basic American burger experience, I think this is fine. Just wished they toasted it more, as it became a mushy mess after even just halfway through. I'd say the bun was my least favorite aspect of this burger experience. Onion Rings ($7ish/5*): My friend said he saw them use a frozen product to drop in the fryer. But damn this was one of the best onion rings I've ever had from a burger joint. Super crisp, just oily enough and no artificial factory flavor. I could taste the onion and the crisp batter, and that batter stayed crisp for the whole meal, even after it cooled a bit. These are a must here. Fries: I tried a small handful from my friends bag as we were sharing our sides. They are of medium thickness and they crisp them nice. They also salt them with a good shake, and the oil they use seemed very clean. Even at Mc Donalds I'll often get grossed out by fries cooked in old oil. Blech! Not here, quite proper. I'm throwing them a fiver, just to show that a fiver doesn't have to be mind-blowing or life changing. Just has to fulfill expectations with a smile, and make me leave satisfied and happy. Check, check...and check!

One woman walked by us twice passing the register and doesn't say anything, doesn't even bother looking at us. After 2 minutes the other woman finally makes eye contact and smiles but that's it. My husband and I decided to leave at that point. I don't mind waiting, but a "hey, sorry! We'll be with you in just a moment" goes a long way. We've had their burgers before and enjoyed them but after that experience we likely won't be back. It was a very off putting.

This was our first time ever and we could not have asked for a better experience, largely thanks to the manager, Kaiel from Brazil. From the moment we walked in, he was incredibly hospitable, kind, enthusiastic, professional, and genuinely personable. What stood out most was his consistently positive attitude toward every customer who came through the door. He made everyone feel welcomed and valued and that level of customer service is refreshing and rare to experience. Kaiel from Brazil truly made us feel right at home and it is clear he takes a lot of pride in both his work and his team. On top of the excellent service, the meal was absolutely delicious. We ordered a giant #17 Mike's Famous Philly to share and it exceeded our expectations. Everything was fresh, flavorful and made just right. The facility was also clean. When I mentioned that there were no more paper towels in the restroom, the team immediately took action, which really showed their attention to detail and commitment to customer care. Because of him, our first experience went above and beyond and we are already looking forward to our next visit. Excellent service like this deserves recognition! Thank you, Kaiel and team, for such a fantastic first impression.
