Cami and Omar, you two make this place special. I walk past two other coffee chains just to come here because I know I'll get a great drink when either of you is behind the bar. You put real effort into every cup, and it shows. Thank you both for being awesome and taking such good care of Peet's customers. Cami even knows my drink before I order it, a Havana Cappuccino, half‑caf, light on the condensed milk. It's a small thing, but it makes a big difference. I'm glad to work near a coffee shop where I'm always treated well and can count on consistently excellent coffee. read more

2.7 stars, rounded up to the nearest whole integer. I've always considered the coffee at Peet's to be better than Starbucks' coffee. I have no idea why the franchise is named Peet's... I glanced at a framed "HISTORY of PEET'S COFFEE" infographic on the wall, but I didn't pay that much attention to it. I didn't research it, either. I am too busy with artificial intelligence research to go down a rabbit hole/conduct any "niche" research that is not relevant to my academic interests. Coffee is like a hug for my own brain-- that is the only reason why I visit cafes often-- for coffee! :) And of course, the ambiance Dictates... I mean, influences how much time an individual decides to spend at an environment. For me, I am always looking for a quieter ambiance so that I can focus on my studies/work. I don't mind overhearing human & humane conversations at times, but I usually just tune them out. I've spent time at one of the many Peet's coffee shops in California, since high school (which was many years ago-- when COFFEE ALMOST FELT ILLEGAL TO DRINK, although there is no legal age when children and youth are given the "ok" to start drinking coffee, as it is not an activity like driving). I forget which parent, sibling, or friend suggested coffee to me, while cramming for final tests. In my memory, the environment at Peet's coffee shops are consistently more muted-- both in the color schemes of the interior and the "inside voice" volume that they try to maintain (I think that that is their intended design...). I really prefer these sorts of coffee shops, over coffee shops that have started to feel more like karaoke bars or an open-mic night that I never wanted to attend. I don't think I am the only person in the U.S. who has noticed these "trends" and "CULTURAL shifts"... This particular Peet's, at this point in time, has some consistent elements and qualities. The lighting choices overhead suggest that the environment could be functioning as a part-lab, part-hospitality-establishment, and maybe part-something else. The coffee, tea, and the food choices remain consistent. It seems that they have expanded their brunch menu, for busy everyday professionals... I appreciate ordering something to-go, to save time. The baristas are conscientious. They handle diverse interactions with customers well, and I actually feel sympathetic towards them as about half of the traffic feels jarring to my nervous system (depending on the day-- and I don't even have to interact with them). If I were to rate only the quality of their service and conscientiousness (as a visitor), I'd rate my review higher. read more

I'm a Starbucks dude, but my coworker told me about a Horchata Latte that I had to try. When I was up to bat there was a little confusion on what I wanted exactly, but the Barista Steven handled my drink with perfection after telling him I've been up since 4:30am and giving him dealers choice. Oh and I when I took a sip, I have to tell you it is a solid 10/10, i don't know what he did, but the horchata cold brew drink he made was definitely made with love and made my Friday! Thank you Steven, I will be coming back just for handcrafted drinks. Oh & the flat bread chorizo breakfast sammy schmacked! read more

It's a Peet's after so their coffee has to be good. I had ordered their iced mocha on the app so it was ready when I showed up moments later. Great as it was not crowded at all and was able to find a seat inside. Will likely return if I am in the area. read more

Drove there cause it show it was the only Peet's open and I get there and it was close til 7am

Espresso is only as good as the barista making it, and I have had some of my best lattes and cappuccinos in the most unexpected cafes. This Peets location gets it right. The baristas here are excellent. They take the time and care to pull a proper shot, foam the milk correctly, and get the details right. My favorite drink here is the Havana Cappuccino, light on the condensed milk (this contains the sweetener). The ambiance is solid, with plenty of seating and a mix of people working or in conversation. The space is clean, well maintained, and consistently pleasant to spend time in. If I had any suggestions, it would be to warm up the cups they serve the drinks inhouse in. read more

Stopped in for a cup of coffee and to purchase coffee beans. Service was okay. Convenient location. Ambiance was fine.

Came here on a Friday afternoon, did a mobile order for a quick pick up! I ordered an iced white mocha with a turkey bacon and egg white sandwich! Love the rich flavor of the white mocha and the sandwich was still warm and tasty! Nice area and provides outdoor seatings! read more

Coffee's good, service is fairly quick, but the attitude is lacking. The crew, on the day I was there (July 25, 2025) was lackluster in their behavior and made me and my wife feel unwelcome. I guess they care about some of their clientele's names, and they want to shoo away other, perceived lessor types as quickly as possible. The funny thing is - I pay less, get quicker and way more friendly service at Starbucks. There's a reason it's a worldwide thing and this is well...mostly local. The female barista got the lowest tip I've ever given anyone, ever. That's a manifestation of my thoughts on her professionalism. Go for the coffee, not for the attitudes! read more

I love Peet's but this is not a favorite location. I always order my drink in advance (usually 30 min before) because I work uber and lyft. They are usually late making drinks here and watching the girl work with the twin flame sweater on, is like watching a Sloth. I get it it's early but watching Olivia make those drinks slow was like watching a sloth. This is not the best pizza to go to because they don't value integrity and they are SLOW here. read more

I was just there and I asked the cashier to please combine a few gift cards for Peet's that I have onto one gift card and they refused to do it. Infuriating!! read more

This is the best location ever all tanks to this barista named Olivia. I've been going to this location for two years now and I always look forward to seeing her at the store. I always get the same drink over and over again which is an Iced matcha and she always remember to pull the foam because i don't like it too foamy but when she makes it it's perfect. I recommend this location 10/10. Thanks Olivia !!! read more

Avoid this location, baristas care more about talking with each other than making decent coffee. I always get the usual but in this location it just tastes like watered down latte. It's too bad since this is a prime location. I'd rather drive down to the one on Sunnyvale Saratoga read more

Really lovely cafe towards the edge of downtown Mountain View. Nice coffees, good selection of pastries, and pleasant atmosphere. Spacious indoor and outdoor seating with a large patio area. The workers are always kind and friendly. They even have community umbrellas you can use if needed (provided from the city of Mountain View). read more

Great place to hang in downtown Mountain View. They have a nice inside and outside space. It's never overcrowded and a good place to work. The coffee is good and the staff is friendly and welcoming. I really enjoy grabbing a coffee here and work. read more

I love the baristas here, their friendly attitude and how they go out of the way to accommodate their patrons. The coffee, standard, and the more specialized drinks are always done excellently. The darker roast is good if you need a "glide in your stride" Holy Guacamole, I was unable to sleep all night. That java will make you do cartwheels in your dreams!!

Wonderful coffee, service a bit slow, there were a lot of online orders. The coffee was delicious! read more

This is my go to Peets and the team really is outstanding. CJ, CL, everyone there really do such an excellent job and the coffee is always top notch. I've been a strictly Peets person and have had coffee from around the world and always come back to loving Peets coffee above any other coffee shop. With that said, there are only a handful of this chain that are continually on their A game and this location is one of them (Brokaw and Pruneridge are the others). Kudos to this team, management, etc. ambience is always chill, and patrons are consistent as a result of the excellence. read more

Now there is only one... The El Camino Real and Castro Street location is now closed. This one on Castro Street itself, next to Sweetgreens is easy to get to, larger which helps for social distancing, and the staff is friendly. In fact, at least one of the baristas here used to work at the other location. Matcha Latte is still me "go to" drink of choice! read more

You have been warned. You will wait anywhere from 15- 20 minutes for your coffee. The order is wrong at least 50% of the time. When you tell the barista the order is wrong they just shrug their shoulders and turn around. I have ordered coffee with milk that was just black coffee. I have ordered dry cappuccinos (almost no milk) that have more milk ratio than espresso. Once I ordered a double macchiato with extra foam, it was 1 shot of espresso in a child's cup. They frequently run out of milk to put in yourself, no one acknowledges you, and then it takes another 5 minutes to wait for them to put some milk in a cup for you. On several occasions they said they never got my mobile order, that I ordered from a different location but I show them the confirmation email at this very store and they do not say anything. I cannot stress enough that there is no customer service training, no smiles, no welcomes, and zero cares about getting my order right. I feel bad for the one employee I heard complaining on her cell phone outside how understaffed they are and how unhappy she is. Where is the management? read more

I love this Peet's location. Most of the stand-alone locations I've been to have really good coffee beverages (as opposed to the locations within grocery stores, which sometimes have worse coffee than I make at home). This one is also still pretty new, and has a fair amount of seating. I think it attracts quite a few professionals who want to do an hour or so of work away from their desks or who have flexible work arrangements. Depending on when you go it can get pretty crowded, but so far I've always been able to manage a seat. There's usually a few conversations going on, but sometimes, even when it's full, a third of the store will overhear your particular conversation unless they're wearing earphones. I've inadvertently witnessed a few first dates that way .... In fact, I've headed there for an hour now! Hopefully just for a latte and to get a few things done, not to become a third wheel. read more

Over the summer I ordered via TooGoodToGo, which this location offers regularly. For $4.35 I got a couple of pastries, muffin and 2 cookies. I would buy again if I plan to be in downtown Mountain View, but I wouldn't go out of my way. read more

Ordered a simple cafe at lait and it was wrong. Barista had no clue which coffee was which in our order of only TWO COFFEES. Not to mention one was ready and given to us far before the other. She was the only one making the drinks, and I was fine waiting. However 2 people who ordered after us got their coffees mixed and delivered before the second simple coffee in our order. It was like she had misplaced one coffee in our order. Again an order of only 2 coffees. It was crazy. read more

Note: this is mostly a review of this Peet's as a study spot, and not necessarily a reflection on the coffee itself. Extremely spacious Peet's located on Castro street. I came in on a Sunday morning to do some work and was pleasantly surprised with the amount of seating in the Peet's. This Peet's is definitely designed for studying, with large windows allowing plenty of natural sun-light in, multiple large communal tables + ample window-side seating + outlets throughout. Bathrooms are relatively well maintained and service is prompt and friendly. Parking will have to be street parking, but there's ample spaces throughout. read more

Medium Latte costs nearly 6 bucks and location closes too early. Pros are that they have outlets and shop is clean. Too expensive.

Very serviceminded. The moment I step into the door, many of the baristas were welcoming me very loudly. The line was short. Only two woman in front of me. After I ordered my coffee, they forgot my order somehow!? Those customers who came after me got their orders before me, which was bit strange. However when I told the waiter, if one the cups were my order. He said no. Again after a while when I felt like all the customers after me got their orders. I started to get upset and forgotten. Come on! It's just one single cup coffee and not 20 cups! I told two female baristas that you've forgot my order and they finally had to make it for me! I like they're serviceminded by greeting the customers, but considered that there were not that many customers in the line. How can they forget me order? This is the first time that it happened to. I don't think I'll get back to this place. I guess Starbucks, Red Rocks Cafe or Alexander's are much more better in terms of serviceminded, tasteful and price!‍ read more

There are 2 young girls maybe at the store for the past 3 months who look like sisters who are super motivated and acknowledge customers and are very conversational and friendly! Both of these young ladies understand the value of delivering outstanding customer service! The girls should be hired as trainers to go train the other peets store staff to provide great value and service to customers! read more

Of all the Peet's I've been to, this has got to be the quietest. Maybe it was the time of day, 3:30pm on a weekday, but for such a central location, it was really quiet inside. The vibe was chill and you see lots of people busy at work and in power meetings over coffee. I had my usually medium Latte, which surprisingly had a bit of Latte art, really made my afternoon. Staff was friendly and quick. The decor was nicer than other locations, with leather chairs and the long community table in the center is a great touch. I will definitely keep this place in mind next time I'm in MV. read more

Always a great cup of coffee! One of my favorites when I have Connect going thru SFO

Hmm interesting that this pops up with the one on El Camino like 5 minutes away. What used to be a slew of failed restaurants has split the space in two for Sweet green in one half and Peets in the other. Blending in with the rest if the Fenwick building architecture it has the noveau strip mall thing going without looking too much so. Cold brew on a hot day while people watching isnt so bad read more

I'm so happy that New Peet's Coffee is so close to my house! Now I am a heavy coffee drinker officially Lol. Every part of this place both inside and outside are great. Even the restrooms are so clean and nice. I can say restrooms here are way better than many coffeeshops and restaurants Ive experienced. Staff are friendly and on point of course. I feel like staff here are more friendly than other locations from what Ive noticed so far. I always see smiles on their faces with friendly attitude,thank you for that. All I can say is I love this place. This is my to go spot for coffee and study for hours. Please keep a great work!! read more

I'm used to walking into a Peets and then waiting 10-15 minutes in line. It was a pleasant surprise to walk into the Peets in Downtown Mountain View and have virtually no one in front of me. I was able to place my order and was in and out within 5 minutes. The barista must have been listening to me place my order for a small nonfat cafe au lait because as soon as I paid and walked over to the bar, my drink was already there waiting for me. Great service, will definitely come back. read more

I have a question for the barista wearing a black & green plaid shirt that was working today 6/30/19 at this location: Is it really that irritating to you when a customer forgets to order almond milk in their drink instead of regular milk that makes them sick, because you charge an additional fee? Because if so, I am truly sorry. Maybe I'm spoiled by the Campbell location where the entire staff is super nice and accommodating or maybe I'm riding my high horse and expect to be given free things (lololol) but seriously! I came in to no line and even then the cashier Monzerat greeted me with a crappy "why are you here" attitude. I get it, I work customer service too and we all have our days but damn, I just wanted a cold drink, not to be made feel like I'm annoying you. When I realized I forgot to add almond milk I tried to get it corrected but the cashier was busy so I thought I'd let the barista know only to be told "to next time let the front know cause we normally charge for that" which I did and I offered to pay for another drink which she refused. I only got more confused because I didn't understand the need for the remark. I got my correct drink but shitty ass service so I wasn't happy at all. I seriously hope management sees this as I'd really hate for this to be a continuous thing on their end. Overall, I still love Peet's and will continue to support their locations except this one. That was not a good experience. read more

These guys are great. I work right down the way and stop in frequently. The service is wonderful and I've never had an issue with a drink or food item. Quick and accurate. Khang always helps me. He is so efficient with everything he does and always seems to be in such a good mood (I could take some pointers from him). The location is very clean and always seems to have a focused, yet welcoming atmosphere. I highly recommend this stop whether it's just to stop in and grab some caffeine or post up and write a book. read more

Lover of all things Peet's! This is one of their newer locations. So glad since the only other spots were Red Rock, who are super over priced, for 10oz drip alone is $3.25, like c'mon. Philz, charges are less or about the same except, they actually have a reason for such a price point, seeing they brew every cup from the time you order and fix it the way you'd like it. The other option was Strabz, who's company I've grown affinity towards over the years, for remaining consistent. Back to Peet's though! You can't ever go wrong with just plain ol' drip...it's at least my way of inducing some serious caffeine. Im pretty sure even their largest drip is still under three bucks. Their drinks are decent. Depending on the barista, again. Trained employees make a difference of course. So I just stick w/ drip Or americanos. Bc a barista can't really get those wrong. Anyway, decent spot. Let's hope it's stays that way. read more
