My first time at this Mall, I hit the jackpot of coffees. This coffee shop is a find!!! Tucked away in a mall, by Macy's men's section.. I walked into a roomy, well lit, clean tables, vast menu, pleasing decor kinda coffee shop. They have a wide range of beverages to select from. The staff is kind and receptive - I tailored my beverage so I can avoid sugar - and they did just that. They made my Triple Chocolate Mocha to my order request. Woot woot!! It tastes good! There's lots of food and you can feel peckish cause the food here will meet the needs! They also have a fun set of coffee and tea mugs displayed! Slightly expensive but hey worth it. The prices are reasonable. Give this place a chance, and you'll go back for more. The only thing about this place is they don't have paper straw. (Plastic is no good for the ocean). read more

A terrible experience. The salmon smelled bad. I do not recommend it at all--a waste of time!

Cute place with good service. I wouldn't say it's the best coffee house but it's definitely not the worst. It opens earlier than the mall does so it comes in handy. The service is good, staff is friendly and quick. At this point I've tried a couple of their items: Iced Chai 3/10, it was suuuper strong even with less chai and more milk, I couldn't even drink it. It made my stomach hurt so bad. Iced Caramel Latte 8/10, yummy but I wish it had more of the espresso. Iced white mocha 9/10, very good and not too sweet Coconut crunch blend 10/10, it's like a frappe & had the perfect amount of coconut taste. Cheese Danish 10/10 very good. Chocolate croissant 6/10, nothing special. They also get a plus for their crushed ice :) read more

Service is excellent and the drinks are amazing. I would take this It's a Grind over Starbucks 10 times out of 10. Yesterday my partner and I came here and tried the cucumber mint drink, so refreshing and the perfect drink for a hot day. Highly recommend. read more

The smoked salmon was terrible; it had a very strong, unpleasant smell. We ordered avocado toast, but they just served us a bagel with avocado on top. We couldn't eat any of it and left without finishing the bagel. read more

What can I say, it's coffee in the mall. I had a plain cold brew which was fine, just nothing special. My wife had an iced pistachio latte which was also fine, but my iced pistachio at home has quite a bit more depth than this one. If you need a coffee, go for it. If you are more of a coffee snob, you should pass this and go somewhere down the street when you head back out of the mall. read more

It's hard to.access if not going to the mall but needed, $Bux is long gone, but this is so much better and even though it's a Franchise...it works as basically nothing else w Espresso machine in the Mall. Macy s had a cafe and it is also closed at time of this Writ. One of the unique tastes here, is it's Chai although known for it's many mixed coffee drinks and flavours having ample enough syrups to enjoy whilst shopping the Mall inside. In San Leandro is an older one but have seen these around over the years alike Tully's and/or Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf now left in The City. That major in iced coffee drinks famously. I had a similar experience couple times I went since grand opening last year to, AnaSofia Z.'s I believe it's okay and food odors mix in a higher ceiling and kept even in a 1st floor setting here. By men's macy's doors down towards center court. Kinda pricey for a Breakfast burro but expected for Mall Lease prices increasing due to less vendors currently renting space differences. Traffic is less except on the weekends, they always have enough staff at this location inside but still training and different persons and like the options on the shelf, but don't know how long it's been there, especially loose leaf tea. Cups are unique and tasteful. I will return for the 5th time, next time and will try a different drink. To us the avacado bagel toast and the quesedilla had more value, than burrito pricing as much as the flavors. My accompanier had the Hot Nutty Cow which was unlike other drinks. So kudos DESI for them for that on the nationwide menu. Another good thing is sugar free hot and cold drinks upforth on the menu giving others a chance to enjoy a beverage while others only use a sugar free syrup only change to anything, ALWAYS defaults Vanilla. Seating is usually full, good for them, but we occasionally found out of the door seating chairs to enjoy our food and beverage seated there. Only a 3*5 due to box chai and the tables dirty but I asked someone they came around the corner and cleaned as we appreciated that. Don't have any photos today, but you will see for yourself next time you go to Stoneridge Mall across from Game Stop, that closed and was vacant blank black on our last visit last week. Ume was around the bend but favors bobba tea and their drive thru closed to re-open as Cowboy Coffee this week. read more

Service was very friendly an it is a cute little space to chill. I got a pistachio latte, w/50% of the syrup. So glad I did, it was still a bit too sweet. Food was just mid. I ordered bacon breakfast burrito. Bacon was pale and floppy, rice or potatoes, or whatever that was, was diced like it went through a hash grinder. I literally don't know if it was rice or potato!!! I didn't eat 1/4 of it and tossed it. Waste of $12 Croissant sandwiches weren't much better. I gave 4 stars for ambiance and service. Cute mugs and things for sale. Also, it is a franchise and I'd hoped that meant locally owned, but no, it belongs to relax the back store. read more

I never knew this place existed because of its location at the mall, but I'm glad I saw it! It's a great to see another coffee shop other than Starbucks ( no hate, I love me some Starbucks! ). The shop was very open with lots of seating. I ordered a medium extra hot white mocha, and it was delicious! They made it just right and it was extra hot. The service was fast and friendly. read more

Fast service and really smooth espresso drinks. Been here twice and both times been good!

Negative 1000 for the weird girl who took my order. Couldn't crack a smile n stared at my child like she was an alien . When I asked if she had an issue she asked why and laughed . Girl get yourself together you're in the service industry . Idc if she's the owners daughter read more

Such a hidden jem! I got the iced caramel latte and cheese pizza. I would say skip on the pizza, but the iced caramel latte was honestly one of the best lattes I've had in all of Pleasanton! Their sizes are very nice; fast service and a cute Little shop next to Macy's. read more

I came in on a Friday during the day as I was in the area. At first I couldn't find it since I didn't realize it was in the mall! But it's a grind took over the old Starbucks location. Honestly an upgrade! I was helped quickly! I asked for a nutty latte and asked how it would be. They said it was really good so I got it! Sure enough, they were correct! I used to go to it's a grind when I lived in SoCal and I loved it! I'm not sure if it's the same company here, but it's just as good! I will totally come back! the environment is a bit loud to do work but I still was able to get some things done while waiting for my drink. Staff checked in after to ask if I liked it and they shared the WiFi with me. Overall, great experience and nice staff! I'll be back and you should give it a try!! read more

It was my first time at this cute coffee shop today called "It's a grind coffee." I loved the atmosphere here when I first entered. There's beautiful artwork and then I later found out that you can purchase them. They also have a wall of wonderful cups for sale. I ordered my first ever beautiful mocha latte. It was a perfect temperature and beautifully executed. I also ordered lots of food for my family. The pizza and quesadilla were delicious and made in house. The service here was just very warm and family oriented. Thank you all for my wonderful first visit here. I'll definitely be back. read more

Food is very good quality ingredients. You can taste the freshness and quality in every bite. Coffee is delicious. Many options. Great service! So happy we finally have an amazing high quality coffee shop close to Dublin. read more

The people there get 5 stars for being nice, the food 2/5 stars. I walked in this place and it's so cute! BUT it smelled so bad like armpit not sure if the workers need deodorant or they cooked something with onions that made the place smell so bad. I had to eat outside from the smell. I ordered pastries. They were okay. read more

This new location is super clean, and the menu looks great! I really enjoyed my drink, but the service was super slow. The two young women working spent a lot of time chatting about other customers and co-workers, and moved pretty slowly... There were only about 2 other people in the shop at the time. We'll try again and see if the service becomes more efficient. The drink tasted great, though! read more

It's a Grind took the place of Starbucks across from the Apple Store in Stoneridge Mall! So excited to see a small business open in a central location, and there aren't other coffee shops in the mall. I didn't get to try anything yet, but I'm enticed by the food options (hello all day breakfast items) and 24oz as a default size for most drinks :o Holy moly. I'll need to sit down and work here to properly enjoy such a mammoth size lol (and imagine the caffeine!). There were cute mugs and tea that they also sold next to the checkout line. Tables available both inside and outside. I'm looking forward to my next visit! read more

This was my first time here. As I was looking at the menu, the cashier told me, "Everything is good," I just thought okay but taste is personal. I decided to order a bagel with avocado spread and tomatoes. Unfortunately, I didn't enjoy it, the bagel wasn't baked properly, and the bread had a raw flour taste as I chewed. I wouldn't order it again, and a bit pricy. On the bright side, the caramel blended coffee was excellent, for a small it was 7 something which I though was pricy. read more

The drink I received was awful, it ended up having a very gross chemical aftertaste and ended up giving me terrible acid reflux. Sure the employees were super nice and very fast, but that did not make the lasting effects of that coffee worth it. On top of all this, the AI "paintings" on the wall just made the place seem very off-putting, cheap and not worth coming back to. read more

Fantastic coffee and great company to go along with it! I always get their cold brew as a good pick up before work and it's amazing! Very chill vibe inside and a perfect spot to sip, study, and have a cup with friends. read more

Needed a predinner snack to fuel me up for a long drive home and passed by this coffee shop on the bottom level of the mall, next to Macy's. The inside is spacious, with plenty of seating. This would be a good place to pass some time and get some work done. I didn't try any of the drinks during my last visit but decided to get a quesadilla and add sausage as a protein. The food came out HOT - as in, I still couldn't pick it up with my bare hands 10 minutes later. The food was yummy - a good portion of eggs with melty cheese and savory bits of cut up sausage mixed in. I was just expecting a bigger portion given the $10 I had just paid though - I only got two pieces of quesadilla. read more

Unusual five star review for a coffee shop and a shopping mall. I think this is the perfect addition to the stoneridge mall. They have a comfortable couch and plenty of table space with electrical plugs for the computer. Services reasonably friendly and fast. Prices are expected. Drinks and pastries tasted good. This coffee shop is inside the shopping mall near the Apple store. Great place to come hang out if you're waiting for something at the mall or just want a place to work on the computer. read more

I probably should've just stuck to the coffee, but I felt like having a Matcha. The matcha was tasteless. A light green color probably one of the worst matchas I've ever had. I'm thinking this is a place where you just want to grab a quick coffee while you're shopping. I also got a bagel with avocado, no flavor and they microwaved the bagel So it was super chewy. read more

This place used to be really good for coffee. I have mostly tried their cappuccinos and it used to be strong and robust. Lately, the quality has completely gone down. The coffees seem to have a watered down or too much milk taste for the same cappuccino. I have been disappointed twice and I don't think looking at the other reviews this is a coincidence. If you are charging a premium price, you should provide high-quality coffee commensurate with that price point. read more
