20 Best Coffee Shops in Burlingame

“We had food, coffee, and dessert, and enjoyed it all. A nice selection of games, including some more basic games for free. A cozy wood vibe, with beautiful board game art featured on the walls. Their music was fun, too! Wish I could take this cafe to my city!“

“Great coffee! So many cool choices. Unfortunately the lady who served me yesterday was somewhat standoff-ish and even though there was nobody behind me she made me feel like I need to decide quickly. That wasn’t cool. Apart from that, the coffee was tasty and with the addition of their house made pistachio butter. I thought that was unique and tasted superb.“

“Great tea, and great English tea and sandwiches. Best tea blends I’ve encountered outside China and amazing nibbles especially the chocolate chip cookies All my tea I brew at home comes from here highly recommended“

“The veggie frittata sandwich on gluten free waffle bread was excellent. Small and a little pricey at $14. Lattes are $7. Habibi one was great.

In a business park but nice. No parking. Clean. Long wait to order at 8 am, 15 minutes then wait for food. tho it didn’t seem that crowded. Staff seemed busy and focused on tasks, not especially friendly. Flat affect from all of them. Not sure why. But still tasted good!“

“Best coffee in San Carlos... by a considerable distance.“

“Love my chi tea And egg bites“

“Sweetness for Match latte is perfect. Love it.“

“Rocio and alllll the women working here are amazing and know what they're doing. Great at updating you if they're out of anything. They also do an amazing g job at remembering your routine order next time around or giving suggestions you may be open to.“

“I was picking up my wife from SFO and arrived around the neighborhood way early. Not even Panera was open at 5. I was so glad that a donut shop like this opened at 5am so I could get some food.

Store looked pretty clean and I was excited that I could get a hot savory item like #3: sausage, egg and cheese croissant. There wasn’t really room in the shop to eat so I started munching it in my car. It sure hit the spot at 5:30AM. I saved half of the croissant for my wife and got her several donuts.

The donuts tasted pretty good too. I’ll be sure to visit if I have to get to SFO early again. I gotta try one of those bigger donuts next time.“

“Well the setting is inside of family fare on Burlingame and 28th the lady moved a little slow but was friendly it was a nice little area that you can sit down at and enjoy your coffee and talk to someone and the only problem I have is for a small coffee it was $6 that is absolutely highway robbery. Other than that it was okay“

“I recently stayed at the Marriott for a business trip and had the pleasure of enjoying Starbucks coffee and food on two of the three days I was there. The coffee and food were consistently amazing, and I thoroughly enjoyed the friendly and helpful employees on the first day I visited. They had a great positive energy that made my stay enjoyable.

However, on the last day before heading to the airport, I encountered a particularly rude cashier named Jessica. I was patiently waiting in line for her to finish with a customer when she mistakenly assumed that I was “cutting” in front of another customer because I stood on the other side of the cash register. This customer had already mentioned that they were only looking, but Jessica persisted in forcing me to move myself and all my luggage over to the other side, even though I was the only person in line.

Shortly after, a Caucasian woman approached the counter and did the exact same thing I had done, yet she didn’t make any effort to move herself. Instead, she happily took her order. This incident was the only one I had with a barista, and the rest of the staff was incredibly sweet and kind. It seems that Jessica may need some additional training to improve her customer service skills.“

“We were looking for a south India restaurant near Milbrae as we didn’t want to drive south or east just for dosa. We found this restaurant in Burlingame which is not far from Milbrae/Airport. We were skeptical but start from the service, food everything was top notch. We ordered dosa and Andhra Chicken Curry, we asked for spicy and it was just awesome. Highly recommended if you are staying near the Airport area.“

“Must try 🍽️
Berry French Toast ( Best ) 🍓
It had a chocolate filling ( tastes like Cadbury dairy milk), perfectly cooked, not too sweet and covered w strawberries.

Tomato mozzarella sandwich
Fresh , the bread was a little hard but the flavor made up for it!!
Comes with a side salad!!

Overall, the place was chill and cute. Perfect spot for a brunch. The food is a win. Totally recommend it to anyone who loves healthy drinks and yum food.“

“First time here. Love the place awesome coffee..gingersnap and pastries. Very friendly staff.“

“Hands down the best bakery in Mountain View area“

“This place is by far one of the best breakfast/ brunch spots in the area. I made a visit here with my previous girlfriend, since we were craving for some good brunch and we were in the area. Upon arrival, their was a bit of a wait, but I did not mind since I am a very patient person. When we were called, the staffs gave us an option to dine inside or at one of their outdoor tables. We chose outdoor since it was a warm and beautiful day. Their menu consists of breakfast platters, sandwiches, shareable items, special dishes, drinks and much more. It was our first meal of the day, so we ordered basically whatever sounded good. Everything was made to order which is always a plus because freshness matters. When our food arrived, it was more than we expected and it was enough for a second meal. The staffs were welcoming, well trained and understanding which made our visit a satisfying one. I recommend this place to all breakfast lovers, if you are looking for a quick bite in the morning or if you just want to try something new. I definitely will be back to tryout the other delicious options they have to offer.“

“Tpumps is a great place to get boba at a decent price. Not too long ago, they raised their prices by 50 cents, which is disappointing but understandable. My go-to at Tpumps is the blackberry peach black tea with boba, and it always hits the spot. The pearl-tea ratio isn't the best, but the drink is still very worth it. I can appreciate the amount of customization this boba place offers, from the long list of flavors, to the many topping choices, to the amounts of sweetness and ice you can request, to the option to add milk. That's what makes it different from the rest. The staff at Burlingame are particularly excellent. A customer once mistook my order for their own and left, and the employees quickly noticed and remade my drink. Overall, a fine boba place, 4/5.“

“Food and service like any other starbucks.
However the bonus is the location. I was waiting to pick up someone from the airport and found this to be a good place for that with a coffee. Just 5 mins from the Airport and a better parking situation than the phone waiting area :)“

“This is my favorite boba shop in the Bay Area!
They use Straus fresh milk, Califia almond milk, and Oatly oat milk — all high-quality choices in the market.
Their boba is also amazing — always soft, chewy, and just the right amount of sweetness.
What I love most is that their drinks are never overly sweet, unlike many other shops.
Their seasonal watermelon drinks are super refreshing and perfect for summer. You can even see piles of fresh watermelon behind the counter, so I’m confident their fruit drinks are made with real, fresh ingredients.“

“Step into France. The croissant are perfect - and so many choices. I love to go on homemade pasta day.“
