“I stopped by Oklava in Palo Alto for tea and baklava, and it was a wonderful experience. The tea was fresh and flavorful, and the baklava was absolutely delicious—perfectly sweet, fresh, and authentic. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, and the staff were very friendly. It’s a great spot to relax and enjoy a traditional treat. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Amazing neighborhood cafe. It's cozy, unassuming and well situated in a cute Plaza in midtown Palo Alto. The breakfast items are all delicious and well prepared, they roast their beans in house in a corner of the cafe and you may get lucky to be there while they do it, great aroma and a nice touch.

The place is run by a wonderful couple, they welcome their usual guests by name and treat the newcomers with much warmth and happiness. It is my happy place to go to go to start my day.“

“Coupa Cafe on Ramona Street in Palo Alto is a Venezuelan-inspired spot known for strong espresso in a cozy, always-buzzing setting.

It’s a de facto Silicon Valley living room where founders, VCs, and Stanford folks linger over laptops, coffee, and endless conversations

I however, get it door dashed in the morning for my first sip of the day

excellent coffee ☕️“

“4.5/5 overall! The Boba is so yumm here. Tastes different than the typical honey boba elsewhere. Their hot tea is nicely frothed instead of just microwaved in other tea shops. We love seeing their machine making boba.
One feedback: The toilet is often dirty or have no toilet paper. Something they need to visit every 2-4 hours to keep it clean and stocked. The owner is very sweet and attentive. ,decent cafe to hangout while sipping delicious tea, definitely recommended!“

“This is a Starbucks placed in the middle of the hospital. I hide out there until my husband is done with his treatment. I actually got a grande latte for four bucks. It's probably my favorite place to be on those days. Nice people...quiet surroundings. It doesn't get better than that

Kid-friendliness: Just coffee and sandwiches. Also water and soft drinks“

High Tea Set

“We’ve been to a lot of afternoon tea venues; Tea Time excels in the quality and variety of teas and foods. We started with the fun exploration of sniffing the sample tea jars in the showroom (there are dozens each of black, green, and herbal teas) to each make our selection. We’d pre-ordered High Tea with our phone reservation, and was happy that they will individually tailor the sandwiches to vegetarian, vegan, and other preferences too (while most tea places don’t). The quality and variety of savories and sandwiches was outstanding. The scone and chocolate cake were delicious. My tea was so good we bought a bag for home. Very kind and friendly service as well.“
