    Great place for a quick bite & coffee before a flight. Order at kiosk or at the counter. Friendly staff. About 5 min wait for coffee after ordering.

    Breakfast sandwich, Avocado and egg

    Easy coffee and breakfast after going through SFO security and on to your terminal/gate area. Join the line and order your breakfast sandwiches, hot or cold. Coffee is delicious too. Ice Latte Breakfast Avocado Egg sandwich

    illy Caffe was perfect for a morning latte. I had the chai tea latte with oat milk and a cheese danish, YUM! Service was fast with nothing line. Very clean looking cafe for the airport.

    Got an iced latte with almond milk. Very happy that they offered sugar free syrups. The latte was very smooth and the espresso was not bitter at all. They have a nice assortment of pastries and even breakfast sandwiches that looked really good.

    Han and cheese croissant was cafe quality

    Friendly staff. Fast service. Good food. Delicious tea. I don't write much. Crowded, but efficient.

    Almond rose latte and a berry scone

    Almond Rose latte! Yes! What a delightful way to find some peace as you wait for your flight. Not as busy as the other airport cafes but certainly worth it. Plenty of seating available some with lovely views of the runways.

    Giving a star for the lady who rang me up - she was pleasant and trying. My Americano was not good. The station to add to your coffee was cramped and should be split in two so there is a better flow. The place was dirty and dusty very off putting. The self serve kiosks were broken. Just a big bottleneck and a waste of time and money for coffee that was equivalent to the free coffee on the plane. The pastry case looked sad too and not fresh. Illy is usually associated with quality and this was far far far from that. I'd love if someone speaks with me.

    They have a good variety of sandwiches and baked goods.

    Solid coffee shop opposite gate B9 at the gorgeous new Harvey Milk Terminal 1. Stopped by for a matcha latte before boarding my flight. They have a good variety of sandwiches and baked goods as well as a "take away freshness" section with yogurts, sodas and water. The self-order kiosks were non-operational so I had to get in the rather long line, which fortunately moved fairly quickly. My drink was ready in less than 2 minutes, and I enjoyed it while people watching and writing this review, as I still have a while before my flight boards!

    Ugh I don't know why I always forget that I do not like the Vanilla Clove Latte here, it has a longering aftertaste that will give you slightly bad breath. Temperature of the drink was good. The cashier was super efficient at moving the line and using both registers. The drinks were also made quickly.

    Fav spot to get breakfast at SFO! Food & drinks always deliver. The line may look long but once you put your order in they pump it out. Friendly staff and lots of seating. They call out your name when your order is ready. Matcha Latte - 5/5 - Great matcha flavor with the bitterness coming in along with a subtle sweetness. Caffe Mocha Iced - 4/5 - Strong coffee flavor with a sweet dark chocolately taste. Egg & Avocado Panino - 5/5 - This breakfast sandwich is AMAZING. Soft baked ciabatta, silky fresh & generous avocado slices, melted cheese, and an orgasmic creamy (garlicky?) aioli. Egg & Sausage Panino - 4/5 - Soft and warm ciabatta, classic sausage patty, melted cheese, along a chipotle-like mayo. Was a solid choice too if you want meat.

    Illy is great and I know what I'm getting when I order. Can find it in the middle of the B gates section. It's legit espresso which sometimes is kind of difficult to find in airports and the stores use those nespresso type machines which is nasty. Last time I came in the afternoon so got a macchiato. It was good, so 4 stars for that, and yeah while I'm about to complain in an airport about prices, I do feel the prices are weird here. It's like $5.25 for a macchiato and $5.75 for a cappuccino. The milk is the most expensive item in a drink like this? Weird baseline. Anyway quick and easy, I'm sure I'll come back.

    Maybe people were grumpy before having their morning coffee, but I was pleasantly surprised by the quick and speedy service at this location. When I approached, there was a bit of a line, it it moved quicky as there was one employee pre-taking food orders. I ordered a hot 12 oz lavender mint latte, a chocolate chunk cookie and an iced chai latte for my husband. I didn't see milk options listed and I almost forgot to ask for my standard 2% milk but the barista behind the counter was friendly and happy to make the accommodation. I received my cookie immediately and my drink was ready in less than 5 minutes. The chai was your standard chai, no fluff. I literally saw the barista pour Oregon Chai into the cup. The lavender mint latte was chock full of coffee and hit the spot. I would order it again for the caffeine boost.

    Really liked this cute cafe - it's located in the Downtown Burlingame area, so parking might be…read morechallenging, but there's a lot of public parking lots available with a short walk away. There's a limited number of seats inside, but they also have a small outdoor patio as well. Good place to hang out and chill if you're able to grab a seat. I ordered the Gui Hua Oat Latte, since that sounded pretty unique. There was other drinks that I was interested in trying like some of the matcha drinks, but I rarely see an osmanthus-inspired drink at coffee shops. It is made already with oat milk, so I didn't have to ask for any milk substitutions. I thought it was pretty good in terms of a latte, however, I wish the osmanthus flavor was a little stronger. The barista mentioned that the latte would have more of a floral taste, but it felt pretty faint. Cost was pretty similar to other coffee shops in the area, since it was $8-9 for my drink with oat milk already included. Other than that, would come back if I'm ever back in the area. I like the cozy vibes and fun drinks that they have!

    1st time trying this unique cafe in Burlingame. Had a delicious Guihua Oat Latte (osmanthus tea…read moresyrup) which you can get hot or iced and with coffee or matcha. Contemporary interior with only some seating in the front, but they also have a back patio with more seating. Very clean bathroom which is always a plus. Good amount of metered parking nearby and around the corner. Would definitely stop by again to try more of their contemporary drinks.

We came on a Saturday around 7pm and there was no line but the place was lively, we got lucky and didn't have to wait, probably because most people were still at dinner. Fork ordered: Tiramisu and a latte The latte was good. Nothing to get excited over, but well made. The tiramisu is a standout. It has this nice crunchy chocolate shell on the outside with a smooth, creamy center and just the right hint of coffee. As a tiramisu fiend, this is one I'd absolutely come back for. Spoon ordered: French flan I don't usually go for flan, but this one is different!!! I do absolutely love the custard layer in a fruit tart, so imagine that with a firmer texture and a richer vanilla flavor. It sits in this perfectly thin, almost hidden pie-like crust. It's honestly divine and highly recommended. Before we leave, we typically get a treat for the next morning to have with our chai. I love the banana bread and Fork goes for the croissant. Overall, such a charming spot for dessert and coffee, especially if you can grab a table outside.
