The womlette was great, but everything else I've tried was mediocre at best, including different coffees, breakfast burritos, and a panini. The food was not very filling nor big and the coffee is passable if you like it with a lot of sugar, I wouldn't recommend it black.

Panini bread was too dry..like it was a few days old 🤦‍♂️

The best coffee to start the day! I loved the sweet and sour waffle 🧇 crispy bacon and 🍁 syrup the best combination!!

Got the Samos Coffee (must try if you love the Girl Scout cookies or just love coconut) and the bacon Womlette, basically an omelette that’s been put in a waffle iron. The novelty was cool and tasted surprisingly good. A little lacking in flavor, but nothing hot sauce can’t fix. Fun to try once, but not something you need to get again.

Very nice area, make sure to sit outside as they have lots of seating!

The place is quaint. They have outdoor seating. The coffee was good. However you need to order at the counter. I really liked having a place to enjoy my beverage outside under an umbrella. We had a nice table with a pleasant view of the surrounding area.

The food choices were limited to a small variety of baked goods, other sandwiches, etc. and some drinks. The drinks were basically coffee, tea and juices. We spent quite a while there and had no problems with hanging out for about an hour after we finished. The location was convenient, especially for those who live in the apartments in the surrounding vicinity.

I would highly recommend this place as a cool hangout to have a light meal or breakfast. The service was basically order and pickup.

Acceptable methods of payment were Apple Pay, credit card and cash. It’s very convenient to have these options, especially when you forget your wallet.

Overall a very good experience. 7.5/10?
I hope this was helpful

Strong coffee. Very good prices. I can't wait to try the baklava. They were playing deep house music which creates a fun atmosphere. Great outdoor seating.

I’ve been here several times and it’s the best coffee I’ve had in the Bay. I usually get the wild berry latte and it is always great! The outdoor seating is perfect for when I bring my dog along ?

Penelope’s is a GEM! It’s fire, man. Love the Greek ode. The coffee is STRONG. Vietnamese and Greek coffee are the strongest coffees I’ve had. Very nice crowd and service as well.
