Peets just isn’t what it used to be.
I ordered a flat white in a ceramic cup- I got a flat white in a paper cup, I asked for a new serving in a ceramic cup, the barista (who said “well, they didn’t tell me”) dumped it into a ceramic cup and handed it back. I said, “there’s no foam on top at all”, she said, “well there’s hardly any foam in a flat white anyway.so i don’t need to make a new one.” Oh well, the New Peets!

Love this place. One of my favorite Berkeley coffee shops. Always clean and many seats near power plugs. The staff is pleasant, and so are the other customers. I feel my backpack is safe at my seat while away using the bathroom or getting a refill. I also like the menu - particularly the egg white breakfast sandwich. Most Peets’ have this, and I’m always surprised at how fast and yet still tasty it is. It’s my go-to anytime I missed breakfast.
My only issue is how SLOW the service is. My *mobile order is always a cold brew (which is already made!), but I always have to wait a long time…even if there’s no one in line & I’m watching/listening to 2-3 people chitchat (while one person is making drinks). All they have to do is pour my drink so I can be on my way since they don’t have to “make” my drink!...
