    Busy busy Starbucks! The baristas behind the counter move fast though -- everyone displayed a sense of urgency. Good for business to move everyone in and out! We ordered our usuals and sat outside to chit chat. It's a very busy corridor so prepare yourself for a wait. Don't visit this location if you're in a rush because you will be late. Good service from all the staff members we interacted with.

    Honestly never had an issue with this Starbucks like others have had. I've always been met with friendly and helpful service from the employees and I can sympathize having worked in the service industry dealing with Karens and people with impossibly high standards. The store is usually clean and my drinks come out pretty quickly especially when I order ahead on the Starbucks app. The store isn't huge, but it's comfortable. My go to is usually the iced Chai Tea Latte and it's one of the easier drinks for the employees to make so I order it a lot with oatmilk. Sometimes I add cream cold foam if I feel like treating myself too. This Starbucks is located in a pretty good location in downtown Millbrae and it's nearby the Safeway and Trader Joe's so it's a great place to stop by after grocery shopping.

    My favorite spot for coffee. It's a hit or miss, some staff make good coffee some don't. Staff are friendly and attentive.

    Pretty small place with few seats inside, but lots of them outside. The employees seem friendly, positive. The atmosphere is okay, but some weird people can show up and make it a little uncomfortable. The drinks are decent, like any Starbucks chain. My takeaway coffee is the Iced Brown Sugar Oatmilk Shaken Espresso. It's the only thing I really like out of their coffee.

    I left the car rental area of SFO and chose this Starbucks to get an espresso and some pastries. What I love about this location is the plentiful parking all around this corner location as well as in the surrounding mini shopping mall. Doesn't have much in the way of indoor tables and chairs but they do have outside tables with umbrellas...I suspect the umbrella won't matter in a storm but today was an awesome sunny day...so I just took my Starbucks break outside. The baristas were friendly and fast...had the pastry I wanted and was other wise treated very well. Definitely a better alternative to the Starbucks inside SFO and a good one to visit when I'm in the area.

    This Starbucks is so dysfunctional. I am a loyal Starbucks customer but I can't stand stores like this that don't take the time to train their employees on how to make their drinks properly. First off when I order a Pink drink they should let me know BEFORE they ring me up and take my money that they don't have it in stock. Secondly, when I order their non fat latte they need to pay attention to non fat milk for those of use that are lactose intolerant. Also, their employees like to give major attitude to customers who aren't regulars and give discounts to their friends at Trader Joe's. Umm...if you're going to give free drinks it should be to essential workers and not your friends. I've had a handful of negative experiences with this place and today was no different with my light iced nonfat latte having nothing but ice and no straw and me having to wait as they were talking about tip money.

    i've been to so many starbucks but this one definitely made a huge impression! every barista greeted those who entered and i really liked how cheerful the barista taking my order was. my go to drink this season is the iced gingerbread oatmilk chai! this drink was the perfect amount of sweet and cinnamon. parking is pretty bad because of it being located on such a busy street - but i like the abundant amount of outdoor seating especially since millbrae often has great weather!

    Busy getting orders together

    Coffee was standard Starbucks. Didn't enjoy my visit because the bathroom was filthy. Definitely not worthy of my Christian buttcheeks.

There's a limited number of seats inside, but they also have a small outdoor patio as well. Good place to hang out and chill if you're able to grab a seat. I ordered the Gui Hua Oat Latte, since that sounded pretty unique. There was other drinks that I was interested in trying like some of the matcha drinks, but I rarely see an osmanthus-inspired drink at coffee shops. It is made already with oat milk, so I didn't have to ask for any milk substitutions. I thought it was pretty good in terms of a latte, however, I wish the osmanthus flavor was a little stronger. The barista mentioned that the latte would have more of a floral taste, but it felt pretty faint. Cost was pretty similar to other coffee shops in the area, since it was $8-9 for my drink with oat milk already included. Other than that, would come back if I'm ever back in the area. I like the cozy vibes and fun drinks that they have!

    1st time trying this unique cafe in Burlingame. Had a delicious Guihua Oat Latte (osmanthus tea…read moresyrup) which you can get hot or iced and with coffee or matcha. Contemporary interior with only some seating in the front, but they also have a back patio with more seating. Very clean bathroom which is always a plus. Good amount of metered parking nearby and around the corner. Would definitely stop by again to try more of their contemporary drinks.

There was also a red bean/mochi bread that was interesting. I probably wouldn't get this again, but good to try. I'm curious to try the other steamed buns that are $8-9/per container of four. Portuguese egg tarts were $3.75/per which is a little expensive imo. We'll be back some day.

Regular HK-style ones are just okay too, nothing standout. Not cheap either (around $3 each these days?), but I guess you're paying for convenience on the Peninsula. That said, it's not bad at all, and when you're in San Bruno/Millbrae and don't feel like driving into SF Chinatown, this is one of the better local options. Not too many solid Chinese bakeries around here, so it fills the gap without being a total letdown. Best egg tarts are still at Golden Gate Bakery in SF Chinatown--no contest. Theirs have that perfect silky, jiggly custard and buttery crust that makes you want to go back immediately. Suzanne's is fine for a quick fix, but if you can make the trip, skip this and head to GG Bakery instead. Solid neighborhood spot if you're lazy like me and want something nearby, but don't expect it to blow your mind.

They have a similar set up to Crepevine where you order and pay before finding your seats. Their menus on the wall look similar too! I am not a fan of tipping before you even get your food, especially because if you want a drink or refill, you do have to get up and pay again... The food itself was good, portions are huge! It will definitely put you in a food coma for the rest of the day haha. We ordered the biscuits and gravy with sunny side up. I wish there was more gravy on the biscuit as it was just the top layer that had gravy. The eggs do have a heavy butter after taste. The chicken and waffles was my favorite. It's pretty much half a chicken, and fried well. All pieces were juicy and I love that they give you gravy on the side in a cup! Too bad they didn't give that for the biscuits. Waffle was light and fluffy. We couldn't finish the chicken so there was a little to take home. The mimosas were with freshly squeezed orange juice which was nice. It was a bummer when we went to get our second drinks the cashier told us we should have just gotten the mimosa kit. We didn't know that was a big bottle with OJ...but too late. I would definitely come back to try some other items. Food came out quick too.
