Love Equator Coffee- they always have great coffee and smooth espresso drinks. This is an interesting location by the Burlingame shore in the middle of Meta headquarters. It's so beautiful to walk around and relax by the water after grabbing a drink. Also love that they have so many breakfast items and not just pastries. Egg fritatta sandwich is very flavorful with a slight kick in fresh thick bread. A few different sweet waffle options as well- I can't comment on how they tasted since my kids devoured it before I got the chance... read more

Recently started enjoying americanos with a little cream. But the Shakerato from Equator is a GAME CHANGER for me! It's 2 shots of espresso, dark brown sugar and heavy cream, shaken until frothy. It is so delicious and the perfect little 8oz coffee! I crave these more than I'd like to admit. Tastes a lot more like coffee than sugar like Starbucks. 10/10 recommend this gem. read more

Ordered ahead of time online, so we could pickup. We came around lunch time on Friday and was able to park in their customer parking spot. Drinks were ready on the counter when we got there. Got the iced raspberry mocha and the top sips were so yummy, but then the rest of the drink was a too sour. I had stirred the drink, but maybe I needed to really mix it. I'd be willing to go back and try some more drinks. Not a home run, but it was difference and tasted rich. I thought the inside seating looked pretty limited. The outdoor seating options are phenomenal. The construction is really modern and new. Looking forward to coming back and trying more drinks read more

I think this is one of the best coffees I've ever had! Parking was a little tough since so many spaces are reserved for the building. The gentlemen were all friendly. I got the spicy honey latte and it was amazing! Very spicy, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. We also got the avocado toast and strawberry waffle and we gobbled them right up. I wish I lived closer because I would come here all the time! read more

I wanted to like this beautiful coffee shop so badly! This is one of the most stunning locations and beautiful places I've ever had a cup of coffee in. The shop is a little hard to find, but there is a big parking lot in the back behind the building with free parking for guests. The Bay Trail is a short walk away with gorgeous views of the water! This shop is located within all the Meta buildings, but open to the public. We opted for their iced chai latte and iced habibi cold brew cream. Unfortunately, both of these drinks were super disappointing regardless of how pretty they look! Both had a watered-down flavor and almost no taste at all. Luckily, they offer simple syrups and sugars by the self-service counter, as well as dog treats! My boyfriend & I needed to add in quite abit of sugar in order to taste anything, and even after we did, it still was really bland. Other than the drinks, the service was awesome and the interior is super cool. Prices reflect that of coffee shops in the bay nowadays. Very modernistic, bare granite, and they sell some of their products too! read more

Good coffee, good food, and good service. but the indoor space is limited. It's close to meta's office and the trail along the bay.

We have been coming here usually on the weekends. It's a nice area to walk a just sit. Lots of outdoor seating areas. Food and coffee are always good, but it usually take roughly 15 - 20 minutes for anything you order. We've had different foods, but i guess it takes that long for waffles or avocado toasts? Prices are high but they are good. We will be back only because they are the only thing around that area. Just know it will take a long time for your orders otherwise it's good. read more

Delicious coffee located in a Meta Campus, plenty of parking thanks to Meta. Ordered a hot mocha with regular full fat milk. Right amount of coffee, milk, and sweetness in it. Got a latte another time I went, good roast in general. Happy to go back for some caffeine when I am in the area. read more

There's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating available. I ordered the Brainwash Latte, which is basically a mushroom blend with espresso and milk. I was hesitant about this drink since I'm not a huge fan of mushrooms, but since I was on a spree of trying something new, I decided to give it a shot. I definitely didn't taste the 'mushroom' at all, it was more of a latte taste to me. But it was a nice latte to try for the first time. Once you have your coffee, I suggest taking a nice walk around the area, it has a beautiful lake view and is a great way to relax and enjoy your day. Recommendation(s): - Brainwash Latte Service: 5/5 Tip(s): - Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating - One gender-neutral bathroom - Take a walk around the area, it has a beautiful lake view read more

Tried my best to give this place a shot various times, but each time the service and quality in what was ordered was lacking. I appreciate the location and ambiance, and unique twists on their beverages, but it just doesn't make up for the let downs. read more

my go to coffee spot whenever i'm heading down south or in the area! super easy parking since there's a lot and very isolated location. it's located next door to Meta's office and Equator only has one door (made the mistake of going to another door and turned out to be Meta's lobby). i really enjoy their iced vanilla latte. it's not too sweet and you can really taste the two shots of espresso. if you sign up on the app, you can also order for pickup which is relatively quick. its also nice to be able to see the pastries that they have available! haven't tried the pastries but hope to come back soon read more

Equator Coffees - iced vanilla latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Burlingame, California

~*~*~ Covid take-out review ~*~*~ A brand new Equator location at the FB, uh, Meta offices in the part of Burlingame that no one ever visits, I was wondering if it'd stay open without much corporate employees around. Turns out, it is quite busy with quite a lot of people coming in on the weekends for their caffeine fix! The parking here is much easier than nearby downtown Burlingame, plus downtown doesn't have any nice third-wave coffee shops (it has the usual couple chains). On top of that, they serve very yummy waffle here! It's easily becoming one of our go-to coffee places. They have some seating, both indoors and outdoors. The outside seating is spaced out but always rather full and busy, so we get our food and coffees to go. Sometimes, the service can be a little slow and it takes a while to get your drink. However the baristas are always very nice, and I think they just couldn't keep up with all the orders they get. Please be kind! read more

Parking was very easy and this place was very easy to find. It has such. Great view. There was a long line on a Saturday morning, but the cashier and baristas were very nice. I got a matcha latte and it was pretty good. I also bought some beans and haven't tried it yet, but I'm looking forward to it. I definitely will be coming back here to try other drinks. read more

I needed a little pick me up so I decided to come here to check on their drinks. Their location is on the edge of where the Facebook headquarters are. There are a good amount of parking spots on the side for "retail" that you can park at. Walking into the coffee shop, it felt cozy and modern. There were plenty of people there working on their computers and others that were relaxing outside chatting with friends. The barista greeted me at the entrance and told me to ask her if I had any questions and when I was ready to order. I ordered an Iced Vanilla Latte with 2% milk ($5.75 before tip). Within a few minutes, my drink was ready. The drink was a bit sweet but once you let the ice melt a bit, it was okay. You can definitely taste the coffee within the drink so thats a plus in my book. Nobody wants a drink that just tastes like pure sugar with no kick. The coffee was on the stronger side, so if you're looking for something to help boost your energy, I'd recommend coming here. I'd definitely be back to try their season drinks next time and ask to adjust the sweetness. Overall: 4/5 Customer Service: 5/5 Parking: 5/5 Drink: 4/5 read more

Quick take: terrible second time I was pleasantly surprised by the seasonal drink mint matcha latte. It was so good I had to come back to try out other drinks. We ordered 2 drinks via app. Estimated wait time was 30 minutes on the app. So we walked around for a little bit then went inside to wait for our drinks. Waited 20 minutes inside because we didn't see our drinks on the counter. Our drinks were ready but they placed it behind a sign and we didn't see it. No one called out the order. Plenty of workers walking around behind the counter drinking coffee. Someone else ordered a cold brew via the app and that drink was placed right in the front for pick up. I went up to ask about our order and then the cashier brought out from behind a sign. Our 16 Oz. hot coffee was cold. My Iced Matcha Shakerato was a little watered down from the melting ice. It was a terrible second experience. My 8 Oz. drink was looking less than an 8 Oz drink which is tiny to begin with... $4.50 for a sampler of their watered down Matcha Shakerato. This spot is out of the way on a weekend. Not worth coming here if you aren't already working in the area. read more

Equator Coffees - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Burlingame, California

Located within Meta's building on the first floor is this clean and modern coffee shop. As I've written in previous posts, i'm not a big coffee fan and when I go to a shop I usually either get a latte or cold brew. Parking/Ambiance: parking is located next to the shop and is very convenient. Love how there is ample parking. In addition to this, there's plenty of outdoor seating which is great as the area around the shop is so clean and there's water near by! Service: The barista that helped me was super kind - wish I got his name. Everyone working that day seemed to be in a great mood Food: I got the vanilla cream cold brew and boy was the cream creamy! A little too sweet for my liking but once you mix it with the cold brew it's perfect. Will be back! read more

Small coffee shop that sees quite the foot traffic from the residents on a walk along the shore and the tech company this place just so happens to live on. Wait can be a little long but it's because of the small staff they have and how everything appears to be made fresh and on the spot which I can appreciate. Staff is really nice, very talkative. I got the vanilla latte with oat milk and it was not too sweet, not too bitter. Definitely has a kick that wakes me up for the day. For food, I ordered the avocado toast and my oh my 10 stars for that!! Absolutely delicious, the lemon zest adds this whole other taste to your regular ol' avocado toast and the bread they use it thick enough to withhold the ricotta, oil and avocado. Most definitely is a must try! If you're in the area, stop by for your coffee and toast to go or enjoy the indoor/outdoor seating they offer! read more

It is an absolute joke that you guys charge for hot water. I did not come to your counter for just hot enough. I ordered coffee and also asked for a cup of hot water which was going to be in my own container. It is ridiculous that you charge for hot water especially when you don't even provide the container!!! read more

Stopped here for pastries in the morning and loved the indoor and outdoor seating options. I didn't get a chance to try their coffee but would like to next time. Chocolate croissant- flakey croissant! I liked how there wasn't a lot of chocolate. Cinnamon chocolate swirl pastry - this one was my favorite but it felt a little more dry and dense than the chocolate croissant. I think it was less fresh? read more

Solid cortado! I came here on my day off and the drive was not too bad despite that it was pouring! I'm always down to try a new coffee shop and was excited that a location opened up in Burlingame. Ordered the cortado and the waffle with blueberries. Drink was made right away and the waffle took a bit longer. It was good but knocking one star off because it was quite pricey. My total was $13.00! The menu looks promising and will return to get some work done. They have a few designated spots for parking so that's always a plus! read more

This coffee shop is located in a new office complex and has abundant patio seating. You can buy bags of freshly roasted coffee as well as other merch. I ordered the veggie frittata breakfast sandwich and it was huge. It was loaded with evenly sliced avocado, chipotle sauce, and prosciutto. The bread was full of seeds and nuts and added a lot of variety in each bite. My americano was delicious and made very hot! Sip with caution! read more

Coffee is decent, ambience is mid. WiFi is unreliable. If you're looking to do some work on the weekends - this isn't it.

Came by on a bike ride and pleasantly surprised to see people there on a Saturday afternoon. Working on laptops and hanging with friends. Ordered a Habibi latte (orange blossom water, cardamom, vanilla) $5.50 hot (also comes cold). The baristas were super nice and informative and sincere. Also got an almond croissant which they warmed. Very tasty. The yogurt parfait was normal. Nice gluten free option. Will definitely come back. read more

Nice little coffee shop serving up some yummy drinks! Came by during a rainy morning to sit and enjoy some fresh coffee while watching the raindrops. Parking was super easy on a Saturday in the back parking lot. The place doesn't have much seating, but I don't imagine it gets that crowded anyway since lots of people just got their caffeine to go. Lots of outdoor seating but not utilized on the rainy day. I ordered the vanilla latte and it was the perfect amount of sweetness! Something that is getting exceedingly rare to find these days. read more

I pass by Equator Coffee in Burlingame on my way to work. I decided to try it for the first time this morning 2/20. I arrived about 4 minutes early prior to them opening at 7am. I stood near the front door and noticed the Manager I assume as she was sitting at the table right in front of me doing paperwork. She refused to acknowledge me and kept her head down. By the way it was freezing out this morning! she could not even look up and say a few more minutes we will open. Then when 7am time of opening she still sat at the table mind you right near the front door as I tried to open the door would not open. I then knocked on the door she gave me the rudest look and said try it now. I have to tell you she should not be in customer service! horrible person! now Sebastian the gentleman that helped me with my order was so kind and caring! he should be the manager as he knows how to treat customer!! read more

My favorite feature of this Equator location is the proximity to the bay! It is right on the water so it's the perfect place to meet to grab a coffee and go for a walk. Be prepared to wait 15-20 minutes for your coffee though. They do warn you ahead of time, but to me 15-20 minutes is a ridiculous wait time for a coffee shop. My friend ordered online ahead of time and still had to wait once she got to the store. They really need to streamline their processes. The coffee was fine. Not sure that the lengthy preparation process has added to the drink quality. read more

Nice to have this coffee shop in the midst of an office area. It's in a new Meta building right off the Bay Trail in Burlingame. Many coffee options from drip to lattes to fancy flavored coffees like lavender latte. They have teas and other beverages too. Surprisingly they also offer breakfast sandwiches and lunch sandwiches including panini. We ate lunch here and had a breakfast sandwich and a turkey panini which were both good and filling. Our beverages/coffee were good too. Food quality and reasonable but not cheap prices. Limited indoor seating and be prepared to wait a bit to order and for the staff to make your order. But it all tastes good. There is just not a lot of room to wait inside because you need to listen for them to call your name to get your order. They have an outdoor patio and there is lots of open space and tables to sit at just around the corner between the buildings with a view of the Bay. It's nice to walk nearby along the Bay Trail and see the water. read more

I work in one of the offices in the area. This review is strictly for the iced matcha latte. I am not a coffee drinker, so I tried the iced matcha latte with strawberry foam. Although it looks great for photos, it basically tasted like milk with a very faint hint of strawberry from the foam. I would not recommend coming here if you are planning to get the matcha. read more

Location: Is right next to the META office. Parking space will be plentiful early in the morning around 9am and fills up around 10:15am on a weekday. We also went during the weekend. Lots of parking space and less crowd. Food: Amazing! I loved their sandwich and tried the cherry blossom matcha hot. Its flavor is heavy on the floral side if you are one who likes unique tastes. Ambiance: Very limited seating. One long table for sharing and some seats along the windowsill, you can see in the photos. No high chair so it is not baby friendly. Overall: I would definitely come back! read more

It took me a little bit to find the place. I was using Waze and the GPS between Waze and Yelp is not accurate. It's the first building on the right ,the very first parking lot after the big field. You park and go around the corner to the left or the building. Was very busy... being Facebook/Meta and all. I came because I really wanted the matcha. But I guess they only do that during summertime. I decided on a peppermint coffee. The foam topping was tasty, but the coffee itself needed a lot of sugar. Probably wouldn't be back, it wasn't amazing or anything but I like trying new spots. read more

My kids like this coffee so we went together on Sunday morning. There were very few people inside, nobody ordering except us. We ordered mix of drinks, 4 together ,my tea was done right away. And then... we waited 20 minutes without any drinks prepared for us. After that I asked what is happening as there is literally no one ordering and only 1 person picking up online order. was told - we have many online orders we need to prepare! well, not only that is not an excuse with 2 baristas in empty store, but also after my question our drinks were out in 2 minutes... by other reviews I see the issue with wait time is a continuing problem so maybe the manager has some work to do on this topic. read more
