I was craving a good coffee this morning and found this place on DoorDash. Since I saw I was nearby, I ended up deciding to head over to check it out in person instead. The service was great- I believe I met the owner and she was very friendly, bubbly, kind and answered all my questions! Went with the banana milk Vietnamese coffee and the Sakura matcha (swapped with coconut milk) The quality of the Vietnamese coffee is VERY good and I absolutely loved the banana milk coffee! Would get again!!! I enjoyed the Sakura matcha as well. I think my partner did not like the flavor combo of Sakura and coconut milk, but I still thought it was good. I love that this place is connected to the library as well. Definitely will be coming back to try more! read more

Drinks were great. My husband's coconut coffee affogato-style drink was really good. Icy- I would say -- rather than affogato, I think. Still really good. Smooth. My pandan coco latte was actually really well balanced. Most places skimp on the pandan flavor. I sometimes hesitate because of the bright green color. I know it's the natural color of pandan, I just don't like colored foods with unnatural colors like orange or blue. As a child, I wouldn't eat fruit loops and even though I love chocolate, I hated how coco puffs turned the milk brown. I deducted one star because my husband said no one acknowledged him when he came in. A man was at the register and he completely ignored my husband but when the girls were finished making his drink they greeted him. And I will say time and time again, I'm big on customer service. I won't return to a place with abysmal service. lol I will stand on my hypocrisy right now because these drinks were delicious and I would for sure stop by again if we're in town. We're from fairfield but we come out here a lot. Next time welcome people. I am always like wth when coffee shops feel cold, pretentious or angry. Did you notice a lot of baristas at small business coffee places are not happy and pull down the whole vibe. Especially the dark, moody trendy ones. Jeez. read more

I came here near closing on a Friday afternoon for a quick caffeine boost. The staff were friendly, and there was no line when we arrived. We ordered the strawberry matcha latte and banana milk coffee! The matcha was a beautiful green color, but unfortunately the matcha flavor was quite faint, and the strawberry syrup tasted a little artificial to me. I also found the drink to be a little too sweet despite ordering it less sweet. The banana milk coffee was better! It tasted pretty much exactly how I imagined it would, although it was also a little too sweet for me even at less sweet. I probably wouldn't get the matcha again, but I could see myself coming back for a coffee, some food, or to study. The cafe is connected to the library, so it's pretty quiet, and there is free Wi-Fi through the library along with plenty of outlets. The seating is a bit limited, but there were several vacant tables and bar spots when I dropped by. There's also plenty of parking, either in the library lot or nearby. Overall, the drinks weren't quite my favorite, but I would come back to get some work done. read more

I came in to try their banana cream matcha. I got iced, the banana cream was delish, the matcha I usually like it stronger and felt too light for me. I also ordered their salted small banhi. It was good, the bread was fresh too. The ambiance it's a small coffee shop inside the Walnut Creek library which I love the convenience of both places in the same building. There's a few table and chair seating and more outdoors seating available. Parking is next to the building underground. read more

I wanted to try the banana coffee that I heard so much about. I thought it was too much banana flavor. I do love bananas though and banana pie. I thought I would like it. I also tried a chicken banh mi sandwich. It was alright. Kibis cafe down the street makes better banh sandwiches. They put very little cilantro which was disappointing. read more

I love that this is located in the library! How cute! There is a parking lot that is free until 10 am which is really convenient. A couple of inside tables and bar top seats. No line on a Saturday morning but I could hear the door dash/takeaway going crazy! I ordered a matcha latte with Ube foam and it was good! A perfect sweetness and neither flavor was overpowering. I'd come back again to try a different matcha. My friend ordered the croffle and said it was crispy and delicious. Staff was very sweet and patient. read more

Prologue Coffee & Tea is a small café operating inside the Walnut Creek Library in downtown (Walnut Creek has two libraries). Although the location is not prominent, pictures of their beautifully crafted drinks and delicious bánh mì sandwiches have been spreading across different social media platforms. So much so that they have been featured in reporting by several local media outlets. Out of curiosity, I decided to check this spot out with my brother and a couple friends on 08/29/2025. It wasn't busy when we walked in at around noon. A quick glance revealed a space that's tiny but well organized. We were greeted by Thuy, the friendly proprietor of the establishment. Since this was our first visit, it took us a while to figure out what we wanted. In the end, we each got a bánh mì sandwich and a beverage. Pricing was reasonable IMHO (see menu pic). I had the cold cut bánh mì and an iced coffee. I gave half of my sandwich to my brother, and he gave me half of his grilled chicken bánh mì in return. Both sandwiches were delicious! The baguette was excellent. It was crispy on the outside and soft and spongy on the inside. Thuy told me later on that she gets them from Duc Huong Sandwiches, a famed Vietnamese sandwich chain in San Jose. The homemade pâté, cold cuts, and grilled chicken were all delicious, and the produce was very fresh. The iced coffee was very good as well. We chatted with Thuy extensively before and after our meal. She told us she was a banker prior to opening this café. From our conversation, I could tell she takes pride in her work. We were all very impressed by her demeanor and business acumen. Should you find yourself in downtown Walnut Creek, do yourself a favor and give this place a try. You will not be disappointed. 5 stars. BONUS MATERIAL: - You can either park at the library lot, Civic Park, or the Broadway city garage a block away. - Contactless payment. - They have limited indoor and outdoor seating. read more

Took me ages to try this place. I love the salato, that's 100% the order to get and is worth every penny. I do it without a syrup, but you get a flavored syrup in there if you want it (built into the price). The Vietnamese was too sweet for me and the americano is way too watered down for me (this is everywhere really). Some of the best coffee in the area imo for the salato, nice depth of flavor and not acidic. read more

I went to the library and what a cute find that there is a coffee shop right there! The people that work at prologue are very nice as are the customers. I was standing in line trying to make a decision not realizing I was creating a line and I apologized profusely and everybody was so kind and kept saying no it's not a problem. Don't worry about it. They have so many different foods and coffee drinks. It's amazing. The coffee tasted really good and I'll have to go another time for the treats. The inside is really welcoming. I highly recommend it. read more

Their Vietnamese coffee with banana milk is amazing!!! I am a banana lover, especially in my iced coffee and lattes. I have tried several banana flavored coffee drinks, and this one reigns supreme. They are located in the Walnut Creek library, with an additional entrance through the outdoor seating area. The shop is also very cute and offers sandwiches and desserts. Highly recommend to stop by! read more

I stopped in Prologue because I was visiting the Walnut Creek library. I had no idea there was a coffee shop attached, so cool! I had to hop on the trend and try out the banana milk. I ordered a Vietnamese coffee + banana milk. I enjoyed it but wouldn't order it again. I think I would just get regular shots of espresso + the banana milk. The inside of the coffee shop is very cozy. They had a few tables and barstools if you need to sit down. They also have a variety of food options. read more

A coffee shop attached to a library? I'm in! I stopped by and tried the banana milk coffee along with a cold cut banh mi and both were so good! My daughter ordered an iced caramel macchiato and said it's the best one she's had so far. We were definitely impressed and plan on coming back. The only downside was the wait and how a bit chaotic it felt when walking in. I waited almost 15 minutes for just two drinks. That said, the pros definitely outweigh the cons. One of the best parts was being able to take our drinks into the library, sit down, read our books and enjoy our coffee. Win-win. Note: Only covered drinks are allowed if you plan to bring them into the library read more

Reminds me of this place that sold banh mi and boba that I used to study at during my student years. I saw the banh mi advertised and just had to try. They've got an eclectic mix of food and drink items to choose from: some more traditional breakfast items, sandwiches, and some traditional coffeees, and some Asian-inspired drinks as well (ube, matcha, Vietnamese egg coffee, etc.). For the banh mi, you can choose from a small or large size. Got to say, I was pleasantly surprised! Bread was nicely toasted and there was a good ratio of filling to bread. To be honest, I forgot about this place since it's attached to the WC library, but writing this review makes me want to stop by in the near future. read more

The drink was delicious, go support a local business. Great place and cool it is just inside the library.

Staff is always so nice. My order is always perfect. I usually get an iced coffee and Chicken Bah mi.

We've been coming here for over a year and it's just the best. Always happy to support a local business and Thuy the owner is so friendly and sweet. The Vietnamese coffee is strong, sweet and perfect. We've tried all the different bahn mis here and not only is the bread legit soft yet crunchy but the ingredients are fresh and tastes amazing! So glad to have this place in town. I've already been here many times and introduced my friends to it too. Happy to report their vegetarian bahn mis are top notch which is perfect for me trying to eat more plant based foods. read more

Saw this on TikTok and wanted to give it a try! We tried the Vietnamese coffee, matcha banana drink, and the cold meat bánh mì, and overall I had a great experience! The Vietnamese coffee was really good. It was super strong but not too bitter at all. It also had the perfect level of sweetness. Definitely a standout drink in my opinion. The matcha banana wasn't my personal favorite. It wasn't bad, just not something I'd go out of my way to order again. The banana flavor tasted a little artificial to me, but that could just come down to personal taste, I'm sure many others enjoy it!! But honestly the real star of the visit was the bánh mì. It was SOO good. Extremely fresh, full of flavor, and tasted very authentic. I would absolutely come back just for this! On top of the food and drinks, the shop itself is adorable and connected to a library, which makes it such a cozy and unique spot to hang out. Overall, a place I wouldn't mind coming back to and supporting! read more

This was our first time at Prologue. We ordered online for pick up at 1:20. We got our drinks around 1:30 with no issues! We got the Vietnamese iced coffee with a pandan cold foam and the binggrae banana milk coffee. Both drinks were very good we had to slow down so we could enjoy them! The coffee itself had a nice nutty chocolaty flavor! They had seasonal flavors that also sounded good! Definitely will come back to try more! read more

I visited this café and tried the Banana Cream Matcha. Unfortunately, it wasn't for me. I've had banana cream matchas at other places before, so my expectations were a bit higher. The flavor here tasted somewhat artificial, and I wasn't able to enjoy it as much as I had hoped. The bigger issue was the wait. My friend and I were waiting quite a while for our drinks, and we later found out they had run out of ice. I completely understand that these things happen, but it would have been nice if the staff had let us know right away instead of us having to ask. We ended up waiting until more ice was brought in, which made the experience longer than expected. read more

I finally had the chance to try Prologue! I had always wanted to try it, and the chance eluded me several times due to my needing to go home for my baby's nap or other parental challenges. Some toxic fumes at my gym, led me to head to the library where my mother-in-law who was visiting was hanging out. When I arrived she was in the cafe! This cafe is located inside the library. Finally, now here's my chance. She took my baby to storytime, and I finally had the chance to enjoy a drink here. The reason I wanted to visit so badly is for its very interesting menu from Coconut Coffee Affogato to Dalgona, there's a wide array of unique drinks! Plus, they have bahn mi on the menu which I want to order next time (with pate! yum). The prices are a bit high here, and they don't match the menu, which is annoying. The menu said $6.45, but it rang up at $7.25, so I don't appreciate that. However, the staff here is fantastic. They are great at explaining the drinks and being friendly about it. I didn't feel rushed (I did step aside to let someone else order) while I browsed, but was met with a smile and more explanations. I wanted a drink that had a dairy-free base, and the staff member was helpful! I ordered the Coconut Coffee Affogato, which was delicious! It's blended with coconut milk to a slushy consistency that I loved! The 16 ounce drink was plenty! I sat at a quiet table to work and thankfully, there were plenty of open tables, so I didn't feel like a bother. I'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu and pick up a bahn mi! Note, it does open before the library opens, so that's helpful! There's also free 30 minute parking inside the library lot. read more

Was debating giving this 3 stars because I thought the banana matcha was too milky and the banh mi was mid but just realized there aren't a lot of Vietnamese coffee shops around the area. I messed up and should've ordered some type of Vietnamese coffee and will report back when I visit again. Banh mi - 8/10 Banana matcha - 7/10..I have tried plenty of banana matcha and it's my favorite. read more

This small little coffee shop has a big menu! Tons of drinks to choose from, not to mention their current seasonal menu offerings. I am all about Dubai anything right now, so immediately I knew I wanted to try their Dubai chocolate dalgona coffee. I could tell right off the bat that they use artificial pistachio flavor for the milk portion but I appreciated the real pistachio crumble on top. The eggspresso AKA egg coffee was good, but could have been more egg-y for that custardy feel. They were super friendly here though and service was fast! I like that they are connected to the library, and you can even bring the drinks through the library if you have the lids on. Since they are connected to the library as well, it was nice to be able to park in their private lot/underground garage to avoid the busy street parking. read more

Came across this coffee place on IG and I just knew I had to try it. I came here with my friends for a quick coffee break and just fell in love with how delicious the coffee is! We had the banana milk Vietnamese coffee. We definitely try to come here at least once a week to treat ourselves to this amazing coffee. If you're in the area, I highly recommend stopping by. I have also tried a few of the matcha drinks and they are also so delicious!! You can't go wrong with any drink here. The shop is within the Walnut Creek Library so if you come by, don't be alarmed that you're in the wrong place. There are a few 30 min parking spots and also other parking spots that you do have to pay for. read more

I have been meaning to try Prologue, so I finally had a chance to go. There is only limited free parking in the library lot so you will likely have to park further away if you're looking for free street parking since many of the neighboring blocks charge money for parking or do not allow people to park without a specific permit. There is a screen kiosk where you can order instead of talking to cashier but it's tucked off to the side by the shelves. There are two outdoor tables and free library wifi. You can walk into the library to find single stall bathrooms. We happened to be there right when the owner was getting filmed. I ordered a Hakone charcoal rose coffee, aka their charcoal latte, 16oz with regular milk, and got the vegan banh mi, large, which is 9 inches. I also tried my partner's Vietnamese egg coffee, aka the eggspresso. The charcoal was not too bitter, I was surprised since I thought maybe the charcoal plus coffee would make it taste more bitter and acidic but it was totally fine, even for me as someone who is sensitive to bitter tastes, and I like the floral flavor from the rose. The egg coffee is also pretty sweet. The foam is creamy and has an eggy and dairy flavor. I thought it was also pretty good. Both drinks are quite sweet. I would recommend Prologue if you like flavored drinks. The banh mi is also decent, I like the savory plant based meat though it's almost a bit sour in flavor, and the texture does resemble meat; it tasted like it was soy-based. I like the pickled carrot and radish but it probably could've been more strongly flavored. The jalapeno, especially the seeds, was spicy. But it is not the most flavorful banh mi I've had, although it was still pretty good. The bread is flakey, so just be aware if you're eating somewhere where you don't want to leave crumbs. Overall, I'd say the drinks were more outstanding compared to the food. read more

For a cafe connected to a library, really impressed by the drink and food offerings here! From seasonal drinks like Sakura Matcha, coffee and superfood drinks to hot food items and sandwiches. Ordered the Strawberry Matcha Latte and skipped on food on this visit. The drink came out fast, it was a great color, but felt like the matcha flavor was good but could be better. Great for those who like a milkier matcha latte. I also wish the strawberry on the bottom wasn't so jelly like? It tasted good with the matcha but felt like it was too processed and sweet, if that makes sense. I'm probably too accustomed to house made jams or marmalades. Service was quick and friendly, so early in the morning. Parking was easy, though locating the shop was easy to miss. Just know it's located on the corner of N. Broadway and connected to the library. Would come back to try their seasonal drinks! read more

Big fan of their Vietnamese coffee and Breakfast sandwhich on croissant bread is a 10/10! Added points for using sliced fresh avocado on their sandwhich . The iced Vietnamese coffee taste is strong but good, the sweetness level is 10/10, could be too sweet for some but the strong coffee really balances it out. Always great service, limited seating, and they sell merch, tumblers, and other cute things. FYI: They are closed on Sundays. read more

I've been hearing about Prologue Coffee & Tea in Walnut Creek from my cousin, and I finally got a chance to try it today. My first impression was that I was surprised to see how popular this place given its location inside a public library. So, I had assumed it would be a bit more hidden and lesser known. That definitely wasn't the case, as they had a quite steady flow of customers coming in. Now, as for the drinks, we ordered a few, and here is my review: Eggspresso - Clever name for a Vietnamese-style egg coffee. And because the coffee is Vietnamese, the coffee itself was superb. It was rich, bold, and strong. It was also very sweet--and delicious. The cream on top, which I assume was made with egg yolk (given the name), was also delicious. I would definitely get this again. Dalgona Coffee with Ube - The purple color from the ube was striking and gorgeous. However, I didn't get much of the ube flavor, as it was a bit overpowered by the coffee. Also, the amount of ice they put into this drink was offensively a lot--especially considering the price was $8. I think their "default" ice level should come with significantly less ice. Sakura Matcha - The cherry blossom foam on top was delicious, with a subtle floral note that I really enjoyed. I'm definitely a fan of it. However, the matcha itself could've been stronger. Pandan Coco Latte - While the concept sounded very interesting (and the presentation was absolutely beautiful), unfortunately, the pandan flavor/aroma was completely lost in the coffee. I wasn't very impressed by this one, but I do appreciate the creativity behind it. In general, the drinks were quite decent, though definitely on the pricey side. For some reason, the shop also felt very hot and stuffy on a day like today. I wish the AC had been working better, but since they share the space with the library, that might not be within their control. read more

Ive been here a few times already and loved the Vietnamese egg foam coffee, but unfortunately this last time I went, the coffee lacked a lot of flavor. The shop is inside of a library.

The bread isn't of great quality it almost tastes like regular white toast. Fresh ingredients overall though! read more

Prologue Coffee & Tea is tucked away inside its own wing of the downtown Walnut Creek library. You'd never know this place was there unless you were looking for it or well, if you were at the library! If you're craving a banh mi and expect to roll in on a Sunday (like me many times), that's going to be a problem because the hours of operation are the same as the library. Bonus points for having its own parking lot though for when you have a craving and don't want to be circling downtown Walnut Creek! For a small space, there's a lot of seating! The menu consists of signature drinks with an Asian twist such as Vietnamese coffee, dalgona coffee, banana milk coffee, a pandan coco latte, matchas and more. They also have teas and regular coffee drinks like espresso, pour overs, americanos, macchiatos, mochas, and lattes. Same goes for their food! There's regular cafe food like avocado toast, pastries, sandwiches, breakfast burritos, breakfast sandwiches and also food with an Asian twist like croffles and the banh mi salad! If you have your little ones who are 4-10 years old and forget to bring their food, fear not! There's food for them here too. They can choose between a hot dog or a PB&J a la carte or they can have a kids meal, which contains a hot dog or a PB&J, a goldfish snack, a juice or Water AND a surprise gift. I ordered the cold cut banh mi with extra meat and a vietnamese yogurt through the electronic stand by the entrance because the counter had a few people. I was able to make other modifications through the electronic stand as well! The food came out so fast. The banh mi was amazing. Bread was slightly toasted and the cold cuts and carrot/ daikon mixture were very authentic. I'd give this a 10/10! The Vietnamese yogurt (which they advertise as a probiotic yogurt) is something I was very surprised to see because it's usually only at the shops in chinatowns. If you know, you know. I definitely knew what was up and I just HAD to order one! The yogurt tasted great - just like the ones my parents made at home for me as a child. For $2.95 for a smaller container it did come off as pricey to me but oh boy, was my craving for Vietnamese yogurt satisfied! I wished that there was more! If you're looking for great tasting authentic banh mis and Asian inspired coffee drinks in Walnut Creek, look no further than Prologue! I'll be back for another visit soon when my next banh mi cravings attack. read more

Made the trip worth it by going to story time in the library, 10/10 recommend! I placed the order on the kiosk because the line was long. I gave my number for a notification, but never got one. When we got there after sotey time, my order was ready. The salmon toast didn't look like the picture. It was pretty basic for almost $14. The coffee was good, but only got the banana flavor at the bottom. Maybe I should have stirred it. The staff are friendly. I'd like to taste their other coffees as they're Asian inspired and I don't see their items in any regular coffee shop. Probably won't get their toast again, though haha. read more

This is the spot for Vietnamese iced coffee!! My absolute favorite is the banana milk coffee and I have my sights on trying the banana matcha soon too! This place gets PACKED so it will be hard to snag a table - I haven't been successful yet. The vibe is cozy and BUSY because everyone is trying to get some of their delicious coffee. The employees are very kind and very busy so you might have a wait a little to get your drink. If you're open to a little bit of a wait for a really good drink, I'd give this place a shot! read more

Quaint little restaurant inside the Walnut Creek downtown library. They have a variety of drinks, snacks and food. I read about the location and decided to give them a try. I ordered the Cold Meat Combo Banh Mi sandwich. I ordered the regular size. If you have a good appetite I would recommend going with the large. I ordered a small and it is a true size small. The bread is toasted so eat the sandwich there if you want the light crunch, soft roll and warm sandwich. The produce is fresh with carrots, cilantro, zucchini, peppers and more. Cold Combo is good with all of the produce. I didn't get anything to drink or snack but I noticed they have a good variety and some anime merchandise. If you are in downtown this is worth a stop and try one of the variety of items on the menu. read more

Stopped by here on the way to shop in the nearby area and saw they had a Vietnamese Iced Coffee with Banana Milk that caught my eye. This small cafe is located in the Walnut Creek library with a parking lot next to it. Parking is metered so you will have to pay, but if you're only here to grab a drink it's only 50 cents to park for 30 minutes. The inside is small and cozy with very limited seating. There's a self-order kiosk as well as a barista taking orders. The service was very kind and the drinks came out shortly. Vietnamese Iced Coffee with Banana Milk 9/10 - Loved this coffee, got the high caffeine from the coffee but with a nice touch of sweetness from the banana milk. I like my drinks on the sweeter side so this was a perfect caffeine boost for me. read more
