Coffee options definitely hit. Matcha was eh, more on the lighter/milky taste. The salted cream on top was good though. Service was nice and quick. Place is cute and small.

I had been hearing a lot about this place and finally got a chance to try it, last time I stopped by, I didn't realize they were closed on Monday! I asked for a Creme Brulee Viet coffee, and my coworker stopped by to grab one for me. He said the place wasn't too packed when he went, and the service was quick. I looked at the coffee and thought it looked pretty good already, mixed it up a bit, and took a sip, and wow, what a combo of the Creme Brulee with the jolt of the Vietnamese Coffee. I enjoyed the flavors that it brought and wish I had finished this earlier in the day, rather than later in the afternoon. Truth be told, I had a harder time sleeping that night than when I normally have my regular cup of coffee ;D.

Such a cute cafe near SFSU, when I went parking was easy to find. Going into the Cafe it's super easy to order, drinks are made per order but service is quick. It's a nice place to sip on some matcha and chill, I was there for a quick break before heading out to the city. Great pick me up and the banana matcha had a natural banana flavor! I know some places can taste a bit artificial and I didn't taste that here. I also like the option to add an extra matcha shot to make it stronger. I totally want to visit again when I'm down in the city again.

Tried this spot for the first time, my friend ordered through doordash. First of all, it came in a super cute cup with a cute sticker. I decided to try the banana cream matcha (regular sweet), I felt that the matcha and cream ratio was very good. I also liked the fact that the banana didn't taste artificial like some other cafes. Matcha was strong enough that you can taste the matcha which I really enjoyed. Overall, it was a very tasty drink. I would like to try the salted viet coffee next time or the creme brulee viet coffee.

Janessa M.

I tried their banana cream matcha latte and it was really good! I'd definitely come back again to order an iced matcha latte. I also tasted their crème brulee Vietnamese coffee and loved the flavor. I feel like you can't go wrong with any of their drinks.

Being a campus type of business that caters to mainly college students, the boba was decent. Not the best but not the worst. I like how transparent they are when it comes to how many grams of matcha is used per drink. Lots of seating and parking can be hit or miss. service was really great and interior settings was dark but pleasant.

Found a place that has good Viet Coffee. I am obsessed with their Banana Creme and Salted Creme Viet Coffees. Nice STRONG coffee as a base.

The cutest shop in a little strip mall serving up the best hand whisked banana matcha lattes. You have to check it out. Such chill service. Seating inside but none outside!

Quoc H.

Parking: Medium size plaza decent amount of spots. Lot was packed but there's also street parking. Interior: Limited seating for medium size groups unless you combine all the tables. Not too buys. Clean and nice ambiance. Good study spot. Wait Time: 5-10min for drinks. None to order. Items Order: 10/10 Black Sesame Coffee $6.75 - black sesame flavor was strong and on point! coffee was also strong and sweet and creamy. WOULD REC 6/10 Strawberry Matcha $7.5 - very mid overall with the matcha and strawberry compote. would not recommend the matcha here

Was looking for Vietnamese inspired coffee like Da Vien in SoCal and stumbled across Jade and Java. What drew me was the banana and sesame Vietnamese coffee, which isn't something sold at most coffee and boba shops in the peninsula. Ordered the pistachio and sesame Vietnamese coffee. The coffee is strong! Can customize ice and sweetness levels too. Parking can be a bit tight as the lot is shared among many other shops and it's in the middle of Park Merced so can be a bit difficult to find. Ordering was a breeze and if you have Snackpass, you can earn rewards by continuing to shop there. At 7-7.50 a drink, it's about in line with other boba/drinks now so I think it's good value. Especially bc the coffee is strong! Will come back to try other coffees and their matcha drinks too. Matcha drinks look to be handmade upon ordering (not mass produced ahead of time, which is nice to see)

A cute little cafe located right next to SFSU that has both coffee and matcha for everyone. I've tried them through DoorDash and going in person and I can say their drink quality stays the same for both. Unfortunately, the last time I went I felt like the matcha taste was too strong for my liking but my wife loves their drinks. Drinks come out fast and the baristas are super nice. If I need a quick pick me up this place would definitely be up for consideration

Elaine S.

Very cute little coffee shop near the SFSU campus, and open late, until 7 PM! They specialize in Vietnamese coffee and matcha drinks with unique cream toppings, and also have some fruit tea options. You order at one of two kiosks in the front. There are small tables and a bench for seating, and a bathroom in the back. I could see this being a nice place to catch up with friends over drinks! I got a banana cream matcha with oat milk ($0.80) and an extra shot of matcha ($3). Everyone else got Vietnamese coffee and between all of us we tried the salted cream, banana cream, and black sesame cream coffees. I loved my matcha and the banana cream had such strong banana flavor. I'm not sure if I would've liked it as much without the additional shot of matcha, but I'll have to try it next time. I also thought it was a pretty reasonable price for a matcha latte, starting at $7.25 - some places are getting up to $10+. I'm not a coffee person, but heard that the coffees were strong and flavorful. Seems like a really nice addition to the area, especially for students. Would be even better if they could partner with a local bakery to offer some pastries, and a few more non-caffeinated options since there's only one on the current menu.

Cielita C.

I've tried their drinks multiple times, but it's my first time visiting their actual location. I really really love their matcha here. The ratio of matcha to the other ingredients is perfectly curated to my taste. It doesn't taste like grass LOL. The banana cream matcha is mt favorite. Nothing too special with the ambiance inside. Overall, this is one of my go-to matcha spots.

I've always wanted to try their matcha since they have so many different flavors. From original matcha to OG Vietnamese coffee. i came for the matcha and I ordered two different ones: matcha with banana cream & matcha with crème brûlée cream. I asked the employee if the drinks are super sweet or mild, and she recommended me to get regular sugar. I love the both because it's not too sweet like she recommended. You can definitely taste the matcha even at 100% sweetness. read more

The drinks were just okay. I was happy to try a new matcha and viet coffee place in this area! I got a banana cream matcha to try. The drinks came out quickly. The matcha tasted rather powdery and not top-quality, similar to culinary grade matcha powders. The saving grace of the drink was definitely the banana cream. It was so creamy and tasted like real bananas. It immensely improved the drink and slightly overpowered the matcha which was good imo. The less sweet option was a perfect amount of sweetness for me. As for the price point, it runs on the more expensive end ($8.10 with tax included). I would not get the matcha again at this price given the quality. Seating and indoor anesthetics were nice and looked like a good study spot. Overall, I would come back to try the viet coffee, but I hope they can get better matcha. read more

Stumbled across this cafe near SF state. The interior is pretty cute, decorated with greenery and there's many tables to sit at (could be a study spot). There's an automated kiosk that you can place your order at. We got the: - strawberry sunsetski : mango tea and strawberry puree - strawberry matcha : I got the less sweet option with oat milk. It didn't taste too authentic or strong in terms of Matcha flavor. Additionally, the strawberry purée on the bottom just tasted like muddled strawberries. Points for fresh strawberries but the two didn't taste well integrated to me - passionfruit orange: nothing crazy, tasted like watered down sweetened orange juice If I could give the shop 3.5 stars out of 5, that's what my rating would be. I think for the options offered in this area, it's a nice addition. In terms of drink taste and price point, I would probably look elsewhere. read more

I like their matcha, ordered strawberry matcha with an extra shot and I really felt the difference! The banana Vietnamese coffee is good. I like their Vietnamese coffee but the banana cream sits at the top. You can leave it and try it or mix it but either way its a mild flavor. Wish there was an option to order more banana cream. Despite ordering at the machine, the baristas were soooo friendly... So much friendlier than anyone in the area... I love the cute girlies who were working on the day I went. Ambiance is clean and modern. I would go again, but I assume there is no reliable parking at peak times. It won't stop me though! Since I ordered both of strawberry matcha and banana Vietnamese coffee, when i finished both halfway, I mixed it and made some delicious slop. I think it was fun to drink but the caffeine was so strong I was tweaking out. 10/10 would do this all again read more

We ordered the strawberry matcha and the slated cream top matcha. Both were very solid and not very sweet (which is my preference). They allow sweetness adjustments so if you want it to be sweeter you could totally do that. Mad props to the store for using real strawberry for their matcha. When you drink it, you get a good amount of chunks. The salted cream top was my favorite out of the two and I would definitely get that again. read more

Came here during their grand opening and was very impressed with the ambiance and aesthetic. There's iPads for self-service ordering, but the staff is still very attentive, friendly, and welcoming. I was beyond satisfied with my strawberry matcha. You can tell from the first sip that they only use quality ingredients. Fair pricing for quality and size of the drink. This is definitely a place where you can hang out too, there's bar tables and lounge chairs. Plus their music playlist is great. A great location for students. They also serve some snacks and desserts. I'll definitely be stopping by again whenever I'm in the area! read more

Jade and java is a great spot for exclusively Vietnamese coffee with a twist that the Peninsula has lacked for quite some time. Between blue bottle and all the rest, we have plenty of European style coffees...almost too much to choose from. However, for years the Vietnamese coffee seen has been relegated to whatever you can find at your local Pho place . Anything else would be have you driving all the way to San Jose. Not anymore! We ordered the black sesame cream coffee. Between the rich coffee flavor and subtle black sesame cream it made a delicious combination we haven't had elsewhere. My only gripe was that it could use more cream. Definitely looking forward to my return and sampling the other coffees. read more

We decided to get 3 different drinks here to see the range of how good their offerings were. The three drinks we got were the Banana dream, Salted cream matcha, and the O.G Vietnamese coffee. The best drink was the Vietnamese coffee! It was both strong and perfectly sweet. I wish we had gotten 2 of these! Unfortunately the other two drinks were not the best. The banana dream had a strong jasmine flavor but the banana tasted artificial which clashed with how strong the tea was. The normal sugar level in this drink is also a bit too sweet as well. I think this drink can be good, there just needs to be tweaking to the recipe. The matcha was our least favorite. The foam was very thin and tasted okay. It was different from other foams I've had. I'm not sure if this is a different foam than a cheese foam but this one is strictly savory. The matcha itself did have a weird flavor. It did end up tasting like seaweed a bit. This could be due to the salted cream + matcha mixing, creating a savory drink = an unexpected flavor profile. I really wanted to like this one! This spot has kind staff, great ideas and good coffee. I do hope that they can revisit some of the recipes or have more consistency with how the drinks are being made. If you're coming here the coffee is the way to go! read more

Y'allllll this was the BEST banana matcha I've tried so far! I rated it a 9/10 (I wish they offered lactaid milk instead of oat or other substitute)!! My friend rated her strawberry matcha 8/10, she liked it just didn't like that it was strawberry puree. Service was superb, barista was super nice and even guided me on how to make the banana foam at home so good. This is more of a spot where you get your matcha and go, they do have 3 tables inside but it's not giving a cafe you work and study at. So happy that there's finally a good matcha spot on this side of town in SF! Must try! read more

This location is in need of a morning coffee spot but they don't open until 930am which forces us to bring our business elsewhere.

I rarely leave reviews, but this place was honestly disappointing. If you're looking for something that tastes mostly like milk and sugar, you might enjoy it. As someone who's tried a lot of matcha spots, this was easily one of the worst I've had. There was no umami flavor at all., just plain sweetness. The syrup was good, the ambiance was cute, and the service was great, so it's not all bad. Unfortunately, the matcha itself was the letdown. I haven't tried their coffee, but I wouldn't come back for the matcha again. read more

I ordered a black sesame matcha for my first drink and the drink came out quick with a friendly greeting.

Honestly don't ever want to see this place go, I would literally cry! It's so close to my house and it's actually good, couldn't ask for any thing better. Also the wait time for the drinks is crazy short! Highly highly recommend! read more

I was visiting the city and stumbled upon Jade & Java near SFSU -- and wow, what a hidden gem! I decided to stop by on a whim and tried their ManCoCo, Banana Cream, and Salt Cream Viet Coffee, and let me tell you... I'M HOOKED. Each drink was seriously next-level -- rich, creamy, and full of flavor. Probably one of the best experiences I've ever had. If you're anywhere near SFSU, do yourself a favor and stop by. You'll thank me later read more

Heytea

Pro tip: ORDER AHEAD Heytea is a chain I've always liked,…read moreand I am pleased to get another consistently tasty drink from this Daly City location! It's located in Westlake shopping plaza so there was ample parking, even on a weekend during dinner time. I had ordered online ahead of time as I had a coupon expiring soon. 10% ain't much but ykw it's honest work. I have been meaning to try their guava drinks forever, and finally today I got the guava grape, which can be made with or without jasmine tea. I got it the recommended way, with the tea, as well as less ice and less sugar. The drink was ready when we arrived. The store smells delicious as all Heyteas do. We waited a few minutes for a worker to be freed up, and were on our way, drinks in hand, 5 minutes later. The guava grape drink tasted just as I hoped it would. The guava and jasmine tea gave each sip a delicately earthy, floral flavor, and the crispness of the grape and the chunks of fresh grape brightened up each sip. This drink was just as good the following day as it was fresh, an important metric for me as the slowest drink-finisher I know. I will definitely be back to this Heytea if I am in the area. I saw that they brought back their blue coconut matcha with coconut jelly, which is my favorite matcha drink from them, so I will for sure get that next time!

When I was healthier, I would stop by 2 to 3 times a week on my way back from the pool I do physical therapy at for a smoothie or a vegan oat milk tea, and occasional less healthy delicious treat on my splurge day! Everything my husband and I have had there is delicious, I have tried so many things. Their eggettes are the best in the neighborhood, the matcha is my favorite. Their seasonal food and drinks are always awesome and so tasty. The soft serve is dangerously delicious with the best flavors and seasonal sundaes. The staff is great - kind, friendly, helpful, etc. etc etc. As is the ambiance, the great music, and fun claw machines, merchandise, etc. What a wonderful gem in our neighborhood. I forgot to add the reason I like it so much is because you can adjust the sweetness level, they have more than one alternative vegan milk, and lots of ways to customize your order. Most smoothies and milk teas are way too sweet for me. I do 25% and it is perfect! You can also customize your toppings, which type of boba or other extras you want as well!

On the bread, I suspect they use a garlic mayo spread to make the sandwich less dry. The sandwiches are smaller now. My photos from years ago showed them to be about twice as high. For dessert, I wanted to try their snowball toast. Unfortunately, no ice cream was available. It took about 20 minutes for my food to come out at around 6:20pm.

On an Ocean Avenue stroll on a sunny day during the heat wave I landed at Cherry Blossom. Inside you will see baked goods along with customized cakes. I had got the durian roll. It didn't have a smell to it and actually the scent was welcoming. It didn't have the funk it smell or taste like some I saw on my social media feed.

Bright space that is clean, seating by the window, bathroom for customers, and plenty of parking nearby in the mall. Walked in and smelled the pandan, definitely tempted to order a waffle.

Order: Bambi Favorite, fantastic drink on a hot day. Pandan jelly, red tapioca, grass jelly and coconut milk provides a refreshing mix with chewy toppings.

Before going to the one down in Westminster, more than a decade had passed since the last time I…read morehad stopped into a Bambu. Given that, it doesn't escape me that it took just a matter of months for my next visit to happen again. No real rhyme or reason as to why it didn't take nearly as long this time, but I'd be lying if I said that the Ube Halo Halo we tried didn't have something to do with it. While it ultimately wasn't what we ordered, the memory of what we had definitely got us excited to try more when my friends suggested coming here! Compared to the location over on Geary (and the one in Westminster, for what it's worth), this Bambu is better in just about every way. Sure, it helps that it's still relatively new (they opened about eight months ago?), but it's undoubtedly cleaner, feels a whole lot brighter, is a bit more conveniently located, and, most significantly, has way more parking available nearby. As for the menu, it had pretty much all of the usual offerings that you'd expect to find at any of their locations - che desserts, milk tea, fruit teas, waffles, macarons, and Vietnamese coffee. -- MANGO HALO HALO - Green Jello Base with Coconut Meat, Coconut Milk, Red Tapioca, Jackfruit, Egg Pudding, Crystal Boba, Mango Jelly, Pandan Jelly, Nata de Coco, and Topped with Mango Ice Cream While it didn't impress quite like the Ube Halo Halo did, this was still really good. Between all of the mangos (vs ube) and jellies, this felt a lot fruitier and lighter. However, it also didn't feel quite as creamy as the Ube one did, which I kind of missed. -- VIETNAMESE EGG COFFEE Sadly, the coffee is a pre-made mix, so they weren't able to modify the sweetness, but I appreciate that they added plain coffee to help dilute it. Even then, though, this ended up being really sweet. Loved how creamy the egg foam made this, though. Despite how I genuinely like this particular Bambu, I don't know how often I would come back since I don't typically crave che desserts and other places usually come to mind first when I think of where to get milk tea. However, should the urge or occasion arise to go to a Bambu again, I wouldn't hesitate to come back to this one, especially so that I can give their Yoonami Drinks, Smoothies, and Ube Mochi Waffle a try!

Everything is takeaway here, and the modern orange packaging is as well designed as the beautiful pastries. Laminated pastry and croissants here are sculptural and tall. My duck prosciutto, turkey fig and brie pastry was firmer (and harder and flakier) than expected, likely because the pastry is compressed tightly to hold its shape. The filling was a delicious combo of flavors.They also make croissant cubes, and other marvels. There are four small tables in the cafe. They serve coffee drinks, including a viral cold brew Banana Caramel Explainner, which I skipped because the pastry was already so rich. The kitchen is helmed by chef Nasir Armar, formerly pastry chef at a couple Michelin starred spots: at Sorrel & at Saison. The team here is friendly and polished.

I did manage to get two sesame cookies - overpriced and not good ! The drinks were also less than stellar--the latte was pretty weak and lacking the flavor I was expecting. My banana salted cream latte just didn't hit the spot. The matcha was good! Overall, I'm not sure if I caught them on an off day, but based on the hype and what I was expecting, it just didn't quite live up to it that I wished I had purchased my coffee elsewhere.

I ventured to Juniper during the late morning rush, and while there was a line out the door, it moved quickly and the bakers were hard at work keeping the pastries stocked throughout the morning.

While I was tempted to try one of each, I was on a mission during this visit to try the black sesame kouign amann. When I placed my order at the counter, I was served a fresh-from-the oven kouign amann - this rarely happens! I couldn't resist trying a piece as I left the bakery, and it was indeed exquisite. The black sesame kouign amann from B. Patisserie is my gold standard, and Juniper's version is a close contender. While the black sesame flavor is much lighter and the texture fluffier than the B. Patisserie version, I liked the abundance of the crispy edges (as well as the year-round availability). I will certainly be back to try more of Juniper's pastries.

The lady that I was watching was there for the matcha and I can understand why now. We tried the Yuzu Matcha Air Cloud and a Caramel Latte because I felt like we needed to try the coffee since it's a Coffee shop though I have to say I was not a fan of the coffee. We arrived just before the line outside started to form. There's seating available inside with a couple of people that seemed to be working. We originally sat in the middle section with the small round table that can't be moved but then a table opened up. There's a gender neutral restroom available that always seemed to have a line though I guess that's what happens at coffee shops. ~~Service: Good. It was quick to order and surprisingly very quick to receive our drinks as well. ~~Best Part: The Matcha. The coffee was a bit too bitter but it could be due to the fact that I do prefer to drink dark roasts. ~~Worst Part: Nit though maybe it's just me where we were expecting there to be a trash at the entrance so that we could throw away our cups as we were leaving but I guess there's no room for the bins at the beginning so you have to walk to the back towards the restroom to throw it away. ~~Tips: Get the matcha. I wanted to get the velvet but it looked so basic compared to the Yuzu matcha air cloud. The Yuzu flavor itself was refreshing in the foam form but I'm very basic when it comes to flavors and shouldn't have mixed the foam in because it was messing with me. ~~Return: Probably not. I wanted to check the receipt because somehow 2 drinks was nearly $20 but I realized there wasn't even an option to get a receipt.

This is hands down one of the best coffee shops around! The atmosphere is perfect for hanging out with friends, relaxing, or even pulling up with some cars to chill. The coffee and service are always top-notch, and you can tell the people here truly care about creating a welcoming vibe. I also want to clear something up, there have been some negative rumors floating around about racism, and let me say from my own experience: that is completely false. The owner is one of the kindest people I've met, and Calvin is just as genuine. They always treat everyone with respect and go out of their way to make people feel comfortable. If you're looking for a place with great drinks, good people, and a fun, friendly environment, this is it. I highly recommend it to everyone, definitely a spot worth coming back to again and again! read more

Oh my gosh. Such a cute and chill cafe. A lot of matcha places are mid but this is my new favorite. There's only one person behind the counter but I didn't wait long for my drink. Banana cream matcha: 4/5 This thick and creamy matcha was delicious. It's definitely more decadent so if you're looking for something more light and refreshing there are other options. The matcha flavor is strong and I like my matchas to be sweet and this was perfect! Coconut Matcha 5/5: The literal best matcha of my life. The coconut flavor was delicious and not overpowering. Coconut milk can have a slight tart taste to it but this coconut milk did not taste like that at all! it was creamy and fresh. Highly recommend! read more
