I stopped by this Peet's Coffee in Lafayette today after work around 5:30 pm. The store was closing at 6:00 pm. I greeted the cashier politely, but unfortunately did not receive any response. I ordered a caramel macchiato, and it was honestly one of the worst coffees I've had -- poorly made and served with a very negative attitude. I had a long and busy day and was simply looking forward to a coffee to regain some energy before heading home. Instead, I left feeling frustrated and disappointed. Basic courtesy and consistency in quality should be part of the experience, regardless of the time of day. I hope this feedback helps improve customer service. read more

Haven't had a negative experience at this Peet's other than waiting way too long for a mobile order because of some printing order sticker paper issue they've had, but that was an unusual event. Most of my orders here have been on their mobile app. Pretty simple and straight forward. I tend to go for their cappuccinos, mocha, and vanilla lattes when I'm in the mood for a hot drink, and my usuals for cold drinks are their frappes (mocha, coffee, and espresso are my go-to) and their various iced matcha drinks. Their frappes/blended drinks are so good, and have been pretty consistent over the years. Love their whipped cream as well! Depending on the drink, they may charge for whipped cream which kind of sucks. A bit pricey for a regular habit, but I do like Peet's flavors. Pretty good beans as well! If you buy beans, you can get a free cup of coffee lol. Store has looked clean each time I've been, and can see myself studying here if needed. read more

Peet's is the best tasting coffee. It's not burnt like "Shard-bucks". Plus, their atmosphere is nicer. read more

Uhh get rid of the Ube or at least get real ube. That was terrible ube syrup and foam. yuck

The two women working the closing shift today were friendly, pleasant, courteous, and helpful when I asked the origin of the Cafe Domingo coffee and getting a few shakes of the Baking Spice to top off my order. Zoe and the other barista ( apologies for not getting her name ) brought a smile to my face. Good job, you two! read more

Best made drinks in the East Bay and I have hit them all. Their expresso is SO fresh, or just the expertise of the baristas here, not sure. But the expresso drinks are excellent as well as the customer service. Inside & outside seating, free parking. read more

I was just there to get a cup of coffee. Waited in line for a long time because a blond pony tail woman o have never seen with hair messy up in aobey taill ringing up was slow and very unprofessional . I go there all the time and have never seem Such chaos. I moced up my hand bag and she rudely said to me I'm still waiting on this gentleman so I was embarrassed. She was completely rude and unprofessional . She spoke back to me disrespectfully. I mentioned to her I have never been spoken to so disrespectful. She gave me flack back. I won't be going back. She is not a good person to do that kind of customer interaction with. I would fire her immediately. I have never seen such chaos. I won't be back. Awful customer service The worse part when I saw the chaotic line I almost left but decided to wait it out only for her to bark and me and than give me flack back was too much. I let. I won't be back. I have always been treated very well almost all went out of their way to help me. She is a nightmare and is extremely disrespectful. I have never seen her before . I won't be back. She was and is a terrible employee. Good riddance. I'll go to ohylz or anywhere else. Just lost a good paying customer read more

Peet's Coffee - H2O and my Ca-F-Fe-I-Ne :-) - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Lafayette, California

Ever since the awful Orinda Peet's remodel I've had to reconsider the Lafayette location. Well, after months of being a (mobile) regular, I'm happy to report that Lafayette has gone from worst to first. (Not that anyone cared; it's always busy.) But I do want to give credit where it's due. Service is great, even at peak times, coffee and food as good as ever. Now hoping that Peet's new corporate overlords don't screw it up. Thank you, hard working people of Lafayette Peet's! read more

Review #013 - 2023 I try not to write reviews for franchises since there are so many different locations that I visit on a regular basis that it's hard to remember which location is which. I placed an order on their app on Wednesday, Dec. 13th at around 4:15 PM, without double checking my previous order, before realizing that there was actually a mistake on the "reorder" option. I normally just hit the "reorder" button assuming it would be my unsweetened hot matcha latte, but today it wasn't unsweetened on my "reorder" option. After placing my order from my car, I quickly ran inside hoping that it wasn't made yet so I could let the barista know to leave out the sweetener, but I was too late. I told the young man it was my mistake and he was super sweet to remake it without sugar at no charge. He even gave me the first one on the house, even though it was my fault. I really appreciate the kind gesture and I am ashamed to admit that I didn't even ask for his name, but I hope he knows how much I appreciate him after seeing my review. Kindness goes a long way... read more

Peet's Coffee - 12/13/2023: My usual -- unsweetened hot matcha latte, but I accidentally ordered it with syrup and the barista made me a new one :) - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Lafayette, California

This location doesn't care about fulfilling too good to go orders. They are not open for pick up when they are supposed to be. Manager Trinh didn't apologize or care that a customer arrived to a locked, lights out store, or battled terrible traffic, or wasted gas. read more

Very nice ambience inside and the employees have always been very very nice and cool people overall. I've always had my drinks the way that I've ordered them and I've been going here for the past 10 years. read more

June 2025 is very different from 2024. The so-called baristas are too busy chatting with each other to actually prepare the orders efficiently. Today I waited at least 15 minutes for a simple order and received the wrong beverage. And that has happened now 3 times in the past 2 weeks. I guess I have to try and park at Orinda Peet's. Hopefully THEIR service is as good as last year's. I heard today that Lafayette Peet's has a new manager. Please quit and let's get a new one. read more

Ordered coffee. Employee made drink way wanted and not way ordered. Employee had attitude and was passive aggressive about the situation. Since when can you order what you want, not have it made correctly and get crap for it. read more

They missed or lost our order and we sat there for 20min before having to leave without our specialty drink. Asked for our money back before leaving but Manager was in the restroom and we couldn't wait any longer so we left without our money. Went back later in the day. and got our money back. read more

Maybe hit it at a bad time but staff was very unprofessional, made fun of customers in front of other customers... one was so incensed with having to work they had to go into the back room to scream... also ordered 3 drinks and then served two ... the blended drink was basically whipped cream only. I'm from out of town so am not sure if this was a one off or not. read more

Stopped by for some saint patrick's day cheer and ordered a medium blended matcha. Drink was festive and delicious! I'm only giving 3 stars because social distancing and limiting capacity was not enforced. While a sign states "no more than 9 person's in the store at a time" there was consistently 10+ customers, not including the 5 staff members working behind the counter. read more

Love Peet's and its coffee in general but this spot specifically makes the absolute worst coffee. I've had the same order for years now, I never get the same drink, occasionally I get a well made drink but otherwise it tastes horrible and is always made differently, usually by the same person lol. And attitude if you say anything about it. Wish I had another choice on my way to work. read more

My wife orders on the app daily! Order a few minutes in advance and your drink is waiting when you get there! They are always so friendly and accommodating. Her favorite! read more

Peet's Coffee - Large Mocha - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Lafayette, California

I gone to this location once...in 2010. It was a decent first time coming here. Fast forward 2021...It gotten better with ordering ahead with the Peet's app. I try this place out once again and I have to say that I gotten good service. I order my drink ahead and by the time I got there it was already done. That what I call fast service. This location is surely in a nice place. It is between a Safeway and Whole Foods Market. Take a walk in this shopping center with your Peet's drink and people will greet you. Check out this Peet's Coffee location read more

Peet's Coffee - Lemonade - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Lafayette, California

They do not take cash. It's absurd to charge $6-6 to a credit card. Add to that, services is slow and the drinks are not that good. Go to Starbucks. It's only a block away. read more

I don't know what's going on at this Peet's. I've been getting my coffee here for 10+ years and the last 2-3 times I've been in, I have had to wait 5+ minutes to even place my order while people are cleaning, refilling bins, mopping, in the back, etc. There is no one at the register taking orders for long stretches. What's worse is they walk back and forth in front of you doing these things and see you waiting, but don't stop and take your order. Seems like there needs to be some additional training. When there are 3-4 people working but order taking is not happening, something is wrong. read more

no bueno very rude staff. too busy talking and laughing with each other I paid for my coffee and was so put off I left without taking it read more

Peet's Coffee here is an oldie but goodie. small space but still dispensing good brew in a timely manner. since i'm not an early bird. afternoons aren't a problem getting coffee nor dark roast. brew: big bang, medium roast (s. 2.40) -pretty strong brew for a medium bean. as "strong" as dark roast but without the heavy bold taste. read more

Peet's Coffee is good especially the Cafe Damingo however the service is poor especially the person that calls himself the morning shift manager who is rude and agruemenative. So stay away from him. read more

Great experience, great coffee! Also love how pet friendly they are, they happily make my dog, Della, a pup cup every time.

Rude customer service and I asked for a new coffee since the original coffee made for me tasted bland and nearly flavorless. They gave back the drink with no change to taste/ flavor. Was inconsiderate it was a brunette female that was acting inconsiderately. read more

Peet's Coffee - Outside area - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Lafayette, California

Baristas a really good at this location. However, I usually get a small latte which is $4.70 and I am not sure why most other times, at the counter they charge me $4.95. One of the young staff told me it is because now you have to bring your own cup and if you do they'll charge you $4.70 (the listed price) It is the first time I hear this. Is this possible? I did not hear this in other Peet's. read more

This location made me a Peet's girl. The employees are my absolute favorite here. They know all the regulars names, always have a smile and the whole place feels so homey. Coffee is consistently delicious. I cannot recommend this location enough. read more

This Peets has so much business and is so busy, and yet it's unfortunately located in a strip mall shoebox slot with a deep "hallway"-type feel, and a nightmare parking lot to boot! Heads up for a seat. I found spills on the floor, and like 10 too many folk sharing the oxygen space. Busy busy busy Whole Foods strip mall. But Peets is a comfort;& ain't I a fool for having purchased so many of those gift cards at the behemoth warehouser? Coffee IS solid here, beans or drinks. read more

Peet's Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Lafayette, California

For the first time ever I wish there was a feature where I could give negative stars. I went in this morning to purchase a pound of coffee. I had asked for a pound of Ethiopian and the girl behind the counter had a sad look and explain that she believe they were out of it and sure enough they were so I ordered a pound of Sumatra and again she said that they were out of that coffee too. I'd be grudgingly ordered a pound of Italian and wasn't offered any kind of discount or future discount because of the inconvenience. How does a large corporation coffee distributor run out of coffee when that's all they do? Poor management. Somebody needs to find a new occupation and I'm talking higher management because obviously they are not doing their job. read more

Oh my goodness, do I regret this terrible matcha frap. Which despite it being in the high 90s outside right now, I'm tempted to discard and dump. This tastes like slightly mushy water with two tablespoons of milk, no matcha flavor, it's actively unpleasant to drink. The whip cream, which I'd double confirmed at the register, was forgotten. I let the barista know. When she squirted it on, the canister had not been properly shaken so it just drooled out of the tip into a limp foam puddle. It looked sad and now I feel sad. This is all very harsh and I don't want to seem like an absolute dick. I worked at a peets years ago and possess no hater-energies for the employees, promise. This drink though... is still sitting beside me and will probably be poured into that bush I'm eyeing outside. read more

Major kudos & props to Hannah, Kelly, Kylie & Vivian at this Lafayette, Calif., store!!! (3518 Mt. Diablo Blvd., Lafayette, CA, 94549). I arrived this morning to buy a pound of Sulawesi and found Vivian in front of the dark store offering free coffee. The power had gone out at 5:30 a.m. due to PG&E clipping a line and the crew here drove to the Orinda store to fetch large insulated containers of hot coffee. Vivian greeted each customer with a friendly and genuine "Good Morning," explaining the situation and asking if approaching folks would like a free cup of coffee. The cheerful, take-it-easy, professional and top-notch attitude of Hannah, Kelly, Kylie and Vivian was amazing. What lovely people and a credit to Peet's! Peet's corporate: If you read this, please give them all a fat raise, recognition and pass along my note to them and the store. :-) Five-plus stars to these four fab peeps! read more

It is hard to imagine a slower staff. They have some agenda other than serving coffee. This is the worst Pete's. Updated - nothing ever changes...under staffed, slow, ridiculous read more

Amauter hour over here today. Asked for a Havana Capachino, JD handed it to me and said just stir the cinnamon in... More like a latte with way too much cinnamon. I went back to have them remake it and it was chaos... just left. Not impressed Lafayette Peets read more

Excellent vibe here. Staff knows their coffee. Welcoming staff, greeting for all. JD Wilson a great mgr. I visit often and will continue. Frank read more

Ordered a turkey bacon sandwich and waited and waited...until I asked about my order, the woman claimed someone must have taken my order...no, she never put in my sandwich in the oven as i observed she was more interested in socializing with others... the people in front of me did not take my sandwich read more

The coffee and side dishes are always good here and the staff is helpful and friendly. The manager JD is great and his employees follow his lead!! Stop in for coffee, you won't Be Disappointed. This store also supported Lafayette youth sports before, during and now at the tail end of the pandemic. read more

Why do the baristas always call out your name and have you come up when your drink is NOT ready yet? I was sitting nicely and chatting with a friend when the barista kept loudly calling my name. I went up to retrieve my drink and they said, "no. Your drinks not ready...we re about to make it!" Call me when it's ready, okay? read more
