I usually hit their San Marino spot, but this location still delivered the goods. The shop's a bit small inside, but service was nice. Grabbed my ride-or-die Koan-Im Oolong Latte and paired it with a donut from my favorite donut shop like I was assembling the perfect duo for a late night snack. The tea was lightly sweetened perfectly to my liking, smooth, and clearly crafted by someone who respects tea leaves more than I respect my sleep schedule. The cloud top was basically dalgona candy foam and felt like a bonus dessert after finishing the drink. Even with a lot of people waiing, service moved fast, in & out in about 7 mins. Quality tea, speedy service, and enough creamy foam happiness to make a milestone review feel deserved!! Highly recommend!!! Now for some poetry that's inspired my 1000th review: Warm glazed memories sift through my reverie. A pink box opened in the summer of 24. Days were bleak and hollow like a bakery shelf at closing. I saw the saddest eyes, soft as powdered sugar falling. Sweet like a dalgona cloud top koan-im oolong latte, but carrying a quiet ache no frosting could hide. That summer you saved me, like the first bite of something new when you thought you'd forgotten what butterflies felt like. The season changed and you suddenly disappeared.... just an empty pink box on the counter. Only crumbs remain now, where your strawberry-glazed humor used to melt into every moment like sugar on warm dough. My heart split like a jelly donut. Still, I'm grateful as the world is as it should be. I pass by the donut shop on 66 and smile. People think it's just about donuts. But once.... a long time ago, one saved my life. Děkuju, na shledanou, měj se via.

You can find there menu on a projected screen facing the wall where you order (which can be hard to see once you walk in). There is also a menu up against the walk where the self ordering kiosks are (but doesn't seem to be working). I ordered the popcorn milk tea with brown sugar tapiochi and tried the jasmine matcha latte. The popcorn milk tea with brown sugar tapiochi was just as I remembered it. It was delicious. Nice and toasty, just like popcorn. You get that milk tea taste as well. And the brown sugar tapiochi balances the toasty flavor you get from the popcorn. The jasmine matcha latte tasted like straight up matcha. Didn't really get any taste if the jasmine. But I guess that's cos matcha is such a strong flavor. I wish they had an option for light ice cos it seemed like the drinks were full of ice. The guy who took my order was nice. Received great service from him. He was very friendly. As well as knowledgeable about the menu when I asked for drink recommendations.

However it can be pretty hard to find. Overall: this place isn't bad and I'm glad I gave it a try. It would be great for a quick catch up with friends.

I'm a matcha person so I've only ever gotten their matcha, and if not just their strawberry hibiscus (no longer served), herbal tea, and strawberry milk. I love their selection of matcha: strawberry with chunks. One of the best I've had! Their blueberry matcha is pretty delicious also. The customer service is great. Everyone is kind and efficient. I'd say the baristas kind of keep to themselves though and aren't overly enthusiastic. But overall, still welcoming & nice! The atmosphere is simple with wood seating areas. I like it. However sitting for a long duration can be a little uncomfortable since there's not much back support, but luckily they have a basket with padded pillows to sit on. Recently they added tables along the corner nook area which is great! Aside from that they have little tray-like table tops to set your drinks on or laptops/books/etc; while working. There's also plenty of outlets which is a plus. Not to mention they always seem to have a good playlist goin' :) Oh! & they have outside seating as well underneath shaded umbrellas. My only complaint is it gets really hot in there during the hotter months. Especially since they're facing south and catch all the direct light early on in the day. Don't get me wrong, I love the natural lighting! It's just more prone to getting hotter & I'm not sure if they have A/C. I'm sure they probably do but it's never been exactly cold in there like most coffee shops, mainly room temperature. All in all Grid is a great spot! I highly recommend :)

I didn't really taste the biscoff cookie much though. Matcha is usually hit or miss for me (honestly, I still prefer making it at home lol), but their double matcha iced latte actually hits. You can taste the matcha, and it's super smooth and creamy without being overpowering. If you're into that richer, creamier style of drinks, this place does it right, highly recommend. It's in a shared plaza with markets and restaurants, so parking is easy. Also a great spot to hang out or get some work done, very spacious, trendy, and usually pretty busy, but drinks still come out fast (around 5-10 mins).

Our go-to is the Saltara; it's the perfect balance of sweet but not too sweet and creamy and an overall solid coffee--it is so addicting. I tried recreating it at home because I am not from the area, but I cannot do it justice. I consider this spot my favorite coffee, and, having had coffee up and down the coast, I think this place just knocks it out of the park. We usually take it to-go, so we have not had it there, but the owners are sweet, and they will make an effort to remember you. Just a low-key great spot.

For the pastries, it looked like a lot of the ones I was hoping from browsing online were not available. I ended up getting the biscoff cheesecake. It was on the sweeter side but it was very good. For the drink, I ended up getting the banana latte. Been on a streak of getting that lately so wanted to compare with other stores. I didn't get a lot of banana in the taste. At least it had an espresso shot for the caffeine fix and did not taste like the artificial banana. Nothing special there and stand out. For the interior, they had a few seating they primarily accommodated a few groups of four and two. I was able to grab a bench seat that had an outlet. However, there wasn't enough space for my laptop and the items I ordered. WiFi was available but it had a 90 minute limit. The store had a moderate noise level and stayed busy throughout the time that I was there. The service on the order was quick and they do bring it out to you. The store also has their own house espresso which was a medium dark roast. American Express is accepted as a payment option here. Overall, it was a decent work spot. If I come back, I'd prefer to try another drink and hope other pastries are available. Would recommend the biscoff cheesecake for those that want something sweet and the house coffee beans for those that like medium roasts.

Convenient and Customizable -- A Solid Go-To My all-time…read morefavorite boba spot was Sunright Tea Studio, but unfortunately it's closed down, so I've been on the lookout for a replacement -- and this place has become my current go-to. What I love most here is the ordering experience. There are multiple large touchscreens where you can fully customize your drink -- sugar level, ice level, add-ons, substitutions, you name it. I almost always go for zero sugar, and the fact that I can do that easily is a huge plus for me. It's the kind of flexibility that modern boba shops should all offer. The portions are generous and the prices are reasonable, which is refreshing compared to some other spots in the area. Is it the most amazing boba I've ever had? Honestly, no -- but the ability to build your drink exactly the way you want it more than makes up for it. There's also a large display screen showing order status, so you always know when your drink is ready. It's a small touch, but it makes the whole experience feel smooth and stress-free. I'll be real though -- I probably drink more coffee from the Starbucks across the street than boba from here. At the end of the day, coffee feels like the healthier daily habit. But when I'm in the mood for something different, this place is where I'll be.

The butterscotch latte barely had any flavor of coffee and was just mostly milk unfortunately. Originally asked for ice on the side, but decided to drink it in full, and the cup was still 1/5 unfilled (even with ice all the way at the top). Being $17 for 2 drinks, we were pretty disappointed about that. The volume of drinks are less than most shops, and it's mostly ice. Usually, I'm not the type to even finish half a drink, but I finished the whole drink. The cafe is cute, very clean, and could be a really good study spot or a place to unwind.

Although a few items weren't available--no lemonade, and they didn't have the cookies & cream donut I initially chose--they offered an alternative donut that was similar, though not quite to my taste. On a brighter note, my orange cranberry muffin was excellent, and my latte was perfectly made. My son really enjoyed his bagel and drink as well, which he said was delicious. There didn't seem to be music playing inside, but we chose to sit outside on the patio. There is a wall-mounted heater, though it provides more direct heat rather than evenly warming the space. Overall, despite a few limited options, the experience was pleasant. If I'm in the area again, I would definitely return and recommend what I did order. Checking avocado bagel sandwich and a plain bagel the Spanish latte strawberry tonic and since cookies and cream was not available I was opted to be given a Tres Leches type of donut it was okay

Walking in, the place felt really clean and modern but still cozy. Lots of natural light and you can see all their coffee equipment behind the counter, which made it feel like they actually care about what they're making. I ordered the sweet corn latte (which I was kinda unsure about at first lol) and a matcha scone. The latte ended up being surprisingly good, creamy, and slightly sweet. Not too heavy or overly sweet. The matcha scone had that nice slightly crispy top but soft inside, and the matcha flavor wasn't too strong or bitter. It's a really chill spot, good for catching up with someone or just sitting there with a drink. Nothing felt rushed and the vibe was just easygoing. Overall, simple, clean, and good quality. I'd definitely come back to try more drinks.
