    This is a cool coffee shop with excellent vibes. I saw a bunch of people sitting and working on cubicles. There is even a self ordering kiosk behind them, even if they could have just got up and ordered in the front. Not sure if the engineers are startup founders. But it is cool to see a coffee shop that looks like office. Even in the front I found people just pitching and explaining software concepts. As for drinks, I went with an iced pistachio cream matcha latte. It was a good drink, could have been stronger on both pistachio and matcha flavors. I loved the Honey Cake. It was soft and fluffy.

    Tons of seating and free wifi make this a great place to work or study. The cafe is also very quiet, making it easy to focus. Their menu includes both coffee and matcha drinks. I tried the matcha latte, while my friend got the chocolate cream cold brew. We arrived pretty late (around 8 pm), so we were able to get 50% off selected pastries and desserts. Honestly, the bakery items were much better than the drinks. The drinks are made by a robot, which is fun to watch, but the flavors still need a lot of improvement. That said, it's still a great place to study, and I'd definitely come back, I'd just stick to the bakery next time.

    Cold brew with cold foam

    Yeahhh five stars. Someone really needs to call the health inspector because they PUT THEIR FOOT IN THIS!!! Never been here but they were super fast despite having hella orders. Never had a cold foam drink either but i am pretty sure that theirs is the blueprint. Smells good in there and the lighting is not harsh on your eyes. If you don't want to get mogged I wouldn't go here though, all of the baristas were cutie pies. Anyways bless the hands that made my food.

    pistachio cream latte

    Went on a Friday afternoon and it was pretty busy. There's a good amount of seating, but most of the tables near the front are no-laptop zones (though I saw some people using their laptops). Cute wooden aesthetic, but sitting on my wooden stool hurt after a bit. The back also has white boards along the walls for those who find that helpful. Free wifi and lots of outlets. There are also tablets to order from placed throughout the cafe. Free 2-hr street parking outside, plus free 2/3-hr lots depending on what zone in downtown you're in. I was able to find parking pretty quickly, but it can definitely be busy depending on when you go.  -iced pistachio cream latte (4/5): only comes in medium or large. I appreciated how customizable their drinks are (#shots, syrup, and the usual milk/ice), it's similar to Starbucks in that way. Overall the drink was good, nothing crazy. The pistachio cream didn't taste artificial which I appreciated, but the coffee could've been more aromatic  Overall, a cute spot to do work or hang out with friends. Drinks are on the pricier end (~$8), but would be open to going back to try other drinks

    Pistachio cold brew

    I didn't realize this place was robot made so I may have picked a real barista but I already paid so I'm trying it. The girl at the counter was friendly and helpful. She was by herself for a little bit so you had to order on the tablet. I was able to customize my pistachio cold brew to just a little bit of vanilla syrup which was nice. The pistachio cold foam wasn't too sweet but the flavor was a little light. Glad I got to try it though. It did get busy after a got there.

    Tried the black sesame latte and the pistachio matcha. The matcha was kind of mid, pistachio cream was alright, and the black sesame was the standout though not amazing. Ambience is what sells this place. Long layout, warm lighting, lots of wood. Some tables say "no laptops" but people ended up ignoring it, and the comfy laptop spots in the back were filled up. Staff was friendly, though a machine is doing most of the drink making. Good spot to work if you're nearby, otherwise not worth going out of your way for.

    A little gimmicky but fun to watch and the drink actually wasn't too bad. For the price, the cup is fairly big and not mini sized. The place was a bit full for a weekend but I think if it's less crowded on a weekday, it would seem to be a chill place to work from!

    Regular soy latte

    5 stars simply for the space!! This is the best working cafe I've ever been to. I've been working here daily for the past 2 weeks and it's amazing! Several seating for individuals and longer tables for groups. Outlets are available as well as white boards on the wall! A perfect place to get work done. It's not loud, with soft music playing in the background. I haven't tried too many of the drinks here, just a regular soy latte, which was good. I highly recommend this spot if you're looking for a quiet place to sit and work.

    Parking is a bit difficult, but there are plenty tables around to do work. It was a busy afternoon when I went. There's a self serve kiosk and it was fun to watch the robots make my drinks. There's also a really good selection of drinks, pastries, and snacks. For tables, there are places specifically noted not for laptops. I was able to journal here and relax. I ordered a pistachio latte and enjoyed the creaminess of my drink. My spinach and cheese danish was so perfect!

    This is my favorite place to study!! It's clean and big inside with lots of comfortable seating and outlets. The music also isn't atrociously loud like some other cafes. Very conducive for getting work done! They have a good selection of drinks and food as well. I only tried their caramel cream top cold brew which I thought was alright. I would probably try a different drink next time.

    Interesting coffee shop. It's very chic and the gimmick is there is a robot arm that is preparing most of the drinks. It gets the cup, adds ice if it's a cold drink, gets the coffee / drink, and puts the cup down. It's fun to watch it zoom around. There are iPad kiosks but you can also order with the baristas if you want. I tried the iced vanilla latte with decaf and thought it was fine. I did one less pump of syrup (so, 2 pumps in total vs 3) and I still found it a bit sweet so I'd try 1 pump next. My spouse got the iced pistachio latte. It was a bit sweet. He said he couldn't taste the espresso too much (but we did get decaf).

    Robot setting a drink down.

    A robot made my hot chocolate this morning. So you place your order on a touch screen, pay on the same screen, and the robot moves a cup to a machine which makes your drink then sets it on a counter. A human calls out your name. So this is basically ordering your drink from a vending machine and it tastes like it.

    Robot coffee place, not that yummy with no customization, very average future. Spacious place though, and bakery items sourced from Weee Instagram: TianTianEats

    Cute cafe on University Ave…read more We always go there when we visit Palo Alto. Their hot chocolate is really good. We get the Cioccolata in Tazza. It is thick and creamy (see video). Also, it is just perfectly sweet, not overwhelmingly so. We also tried their flourless almond cake - it was quite dry, brittle and tasted like toasted and ground almonds. Will return for the hot chocolate and pass the cake! There is no option for to-go (for drinks) and you pick your food at the billing desk itself. They serve with a smile.

    The coffee is good. I'll say that first so nobody can wave this away as sour grapes from someone…read morewho doesn't know what an espresso should taste like. Everything else about Cafe Venecia is a problem, and it has been a problem every time I've gone, including today. The outside tables are never cleared. Crumbs, coffee rings, somebody's abandoned napkin. No one comes out. Ask an employee about it and they'll point you toward a rag you're welcome to fetch and use yourself. That's the arrangement here -- you buy the coffee, you bus the table, you wipe it down, and the staff watches you do it. Today I asked for a bowl of water for my dog. The answer was no. Not "we're slammed, give me a minute," just no. So I asked whether they could put a little water in a to-go container instead, and was told, "Well, I can't give you a to-go container because we don't do them." Sit with that one. They don't do to-go containers, which means everything in the place comes in real dishware, which means the building is full of cups and bowls. They had exactly what I was asking for. They simply weren't going to hand one over, and they made sure I understood that by the tone. So: a café on University Avenue, with sidewalk seating, in a town where half the foot traffic is people walking dogs, has decided that tap water is outside its operating capabilities, and table cleaning is outside its operating capabilities, while charging Palo Alto prices is somehow well within them. There are a dozen places within three blocks that manage the coffee and the manners at the same time. Go to one of those. One star, and the star is for the beans.
