Iced Chai Latte with extra chai
Lyn N.

Iced chai latte with extra chai & almond milk. Great location in the Town & Country Village. I forgot to order via the mobile app so I ordered in person. The chai latte was a nice break away from my go to drinks of caramel lattes or lattes in general.

Surprisingly I've never been into a Peet's coffee before. I recently moved here and have never lived anywhere that really has them. I was impressed with the food and beverage menu, merchandise and ambiance of this location in Town & Country. It reminded me a lot of Starbucks and apparently there's even an app. The layout is much like Starbucks although I prefer the coffee here. I got a dirty chai latte that was delicious and it didn't take long at all. This looks like a great place for a coffee get together or a place to get work done alone.

Stay away from the matcha it's disgusting. Peet's stick to coffeee only or figure out a better recipe. You can tell just from how it looks.

This location makes good drinks, has indoor seating, and has wall outlets and WiFi that is reasonable. That's all I really want out of a Peet's Coffee. It's almost always crowded, especially on weekend mornings as the downtown Palo Alto crowd and Stanford students get their coffees. The orders may be a little slow to come out, but it's understandable. And if all the indoor seats are filled, it's usually not too long of a wait before a party leaves, and plus there are plenty of outdoor tables and benches around Town and Country Village Shopping Center that are nice enough. There are also public restrooms next to the Diptyque store that are kept clean. I will rotate my order between iced vanilla latte and iced matcha latte. I tried one of the iced espresso drinks with condensed milk, don't remember the name, but I should have known better as it was way too sweet for my taste.

The best plant based breakfast sandwich

I am a huge fan of Peet's coffee! They have a wonderful selection of drinks with options for alternative milk if you are lactose intolerant or desire something different. They also have a simple and yet wide variety of pastries and sandwiches. I think when I appreciate the most about Peet's is that it tastes like coffee. Other places seem to overdo it with the sugar and sometimes it taste more like syrup and hot water than anything else. This particular branch is located near the Stanford University campus. You can expect to find all types of people working, studying, and conversing there. the day we visited happen to be my birthday and it was such a wonderful morning out. It was foggy, cold, and a perfect time to get something warm to drink and warm to eat. The service was amazing and very quick! Walking in, you are met with warm lights with warm tones the noise is average may be even quieter but definitely not a place that sounds like it's a mess. I enjoyed actually sitting down and having a cup of coffee with my fiancé. If you happen to be in the area looking for a good cup of Joe, and maybe even a short break from sitting in your car, be sure to stop by this place in the morning. it would do you well to help out the traffic and also a great time to start the morning a little more calm.

Great location, fast service and efficient staff. Really enjoyed the visit here the last few times and thought to leave a little note of appreciation for the great job they do at this location compared to some others I have visited in the past. Will definitely stop by for my oat milk latte again. Love the fact they have started carrying the parley milk!!! Yummy

Oat milk cold brew
Brenner Q.

Love coming here in the early morning just a little time to decompress from the week. Nice atmosphere, small and quiet. Friendly staff always with a smile even when it gets busy which I know that it's hard to do sometimes to when it's slammed...

Iced lattes pre-oat milk change

I've been going here for years because it, by far, had the best iced lattes. Now the oat milk has changed so I no longer like them but the coffee is still high quality. Pros: - High quality coffee, espresso isn't perpetually burnt like Starbucks - Good food - Recently added a new sandwich without egg which is really good - Genuinely nice staff who go above and beyond to help customers and build relationships with them - Good seating for doing work, nice big tables - Generally better coffee than other Peet's stores - baristas seem to have better training at this one - Staff puts up with high school students every school day at lunch, dealing with a lot of stress - Actually stay open and make drinks until the closing time Cons: - Just changed their oat milk to Chobani. It used to be Pacific Foods barista edition and it was high quality and creamy. - Can be hard to find seating sometimes. They recently remodeled and the high tables are super uncomfortable and disability unfriendly. The rest of the seating is good, but chairs are not the comfiest. - Used to be open until 9 p.m., now only until 7 p.m.

Matcha latte
Thrisha S.

I love peets! I also love their staff! They recently remodeled! I always get their matcha latte and chorizo flatbread ! It was solid! Parking is tough but I love it !

Arturo M.

Loved their coffee Also loved how their staff ( Blonde young woman ) was super helpful with my Awkward or demanding order which was Their Havanna latte with almond milk and I believe with about 6-7 shots of espresso total.... ( was on a San Diego to San Francisco and back to San Diego Drive Just for the kicks and giggles- time to think about life ) And that was one of three coffees I got lol... Definitely leaving Starbucks for PEETS coffee because of their continuous great coffee and professional staff

Golden heart latte...DELICIOUS!!!

Day Visited: Usually weekends around 8 AM Price Range: $$…read moreParking: Free Parking Lot, but fills up quickly especially during peak hour! Ordered: Hojicha Einspanner (go to), Espresso Tonic (go to), Seasonal Drinks, Pour Over Covour is one of our favorite coffee shops and we always come during the weekends! Highly recommend going early because the parking fills up fast, therefore, the seating in the coffee shop fills up fast as well. Our go-tos are usually an Iced Hojicha Einspanner and a pour over, Iced Americano, or an Espresso Tonic. We've tried their matcha as well, which is also solid! Every single time we have gone (which is usually when they open), there is already a line forming outside the door. Depending on how busy it is, we have waited between 12-18 minutes for our drinks (on the high end), but the drinks are always so yummy! They also have an amazing selection of pastries including an everything croissant, cookies, mochi, pistachio raspberry croissant, spinach and feta croissant, and a mushroom croissant to name a few! Their Hojicha Einspanner is sooo good. The Einspanner is so creamy and their Hojicha is the perfect, balanced amount of nutty flavors. Whenever I have ordered this drink, people are always eyeing to see what it is because the presentation is also that good! The Espresso Tonic is also a perfect summer drink and the shot was pulled perfectly. If you want to get some work done here, I'd highly recommend coming early so you can grab a table and to also bring your headphones because it does get busy and loud. They also have WiFi and one single bathroom. Thanks Covour Coffee!

Extremely. Underwhelming…read more Tried four drinks and a pastry. Cold brew is sour. Chalky matcha (psss, spend more as people can taste it). Diluted lattes. The coffee bean choice is in question here. Seems to be the root of all the bad drinks. Well the toppings are sub par as well. The everything croissant with cream cheese saved this from a ZERO star. The people who go here are not real coffee connoisseurs. Careful with the reviews. For the connoisseurs - the drinks are not refined. It's slapped together. It doesn't have the layering connoisseurs seek. Iykyk. I had so much hope, I mean, how bad can a coffee shop be if it's in a coffee town. The decor and vibe is nice, however.

A Hidden Gem for Coffee Lovers!…read more We stumbled upon this place while craving coffee after a heavy meal at another restaurant in Palo Alto. Tucked away in a cozy spot, it's accessible through an 'Insta-friendly' walkway between two beautifully painted mural walls--a hidden gem in every sense. At first, I assumed it was one of those trendy spots that people flock to more for the aesthetics than the actual coffee. But I couldn't have been more wrong. Our group ordered a variety of drinks, and everyone loved what they got. The service was friendly and prompt, and to our surprise, there was plenty of seating. While their signature brews feature some unique craft coffee blends, I went with a classic cappuccino--and it did not disappoint. Bold, flavorful, and beautifully presented, it was everything I hoped for. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in the area!

But it goes great with the Jordanian pancakes. - 4.0: espresso shot. A respectable Italian style shot with structure. But very sour. - 2.5: Dessert rose latte. Flavor is too muted.

This cafe specializes in Asian inspired drinks, roll cakes, basque cheesecakes, as well as Japanese puddings. The interior is super Japandi / minimalistic aesthetic. Their desserts have also been officially marked as "not too sweet" by my inlaws so you know it's got that Asian parent stamp of approval! I haven't tried the basque cheesecakes and the puddings, but have been a repeat customer for their roll cakes. So far I've tried their matcha, coffee, and black sesame roll cakes and all are fantastic. Super strong flavors and the chiffon cake isn't too dry. I will say for a single slice the price is quite steep, but it /is/ located in Palo Alto so rent is not cheap I would assume. Also if you wanted an entire roll, you have to order 2 business days in advance.

The service is also fantastic from everyone there. You may be wondering what gives it 3 stars instead of 5? They are always out of baked goods. We showed up at 12 pm today and there was NOTHING left and they were 3 hours from close. That is not a great way to run a business if you ask me. We ended up ordering sandwiches because they were entirely out of everything in the bakery section, albeit my gf and I were excited to try the croissants and could not because of this. 3/5 stars and I recommend that they work to optimize their goods because man are they losing a lot of money and clients as a business here beyond their drinks. Do not recommend coming here after noon for food as you can anticipate they will be sold out of almost everything. We ordered the avocado toast and ham, bacon, cheese, and avocado sandwich, an espresso shot and a matcha latte today. Their cold brew is fantastic as well!

I was surprised as I figured there would be tables to relax and drink coffee. However there was no line to order coffee. Coffee itself was ok. I wouldn't come here for specialty coffee as the drip was quite bitter and overly roasted (for context, I appreciate more light roasts). Also, when I was just asking what was on drip or espresso, the barista didn't know and was having a hard time having another barista answer her question. If a friend wanted to come t catch up, I would be happy to come. However, I would not come if I wanted a good cup of coffee.

The interior is pretty bright, with lots of windows which let in a large amount of sunlight (though it also means some spots could probably get toasty). The menu is very matcha forward, with a lot of drinks and a small number of choices of soft serve. I got a yuzu tea and matcha soft serve with mochi "topping". The mochi topping, they were placed at the bottom of the soft serve cup which definitely makes it less of a dexterity challenge to eat the soft serve while not spilling mochi everywhere. Service was counter service, with one staff member working it all when my party was there around 4pm. The yuzu tea was good. It was cold and refreshing which was superb on this hot day, with a light yuzu flavor to it. I liked what I got, but prices felt a tad high. Still, it was a nice spot to hang out for half an hour over drinks

I guess that it's known to have good coffee and nice exterior. It looks really nice inside but outside is way better due to scenic the atmosphere is.
