I really wanted to like this place. I went around 11am and ordered a cinnamon roll, a warm chai latte, and iced horchata coffee. The chai was good but nothing special, and I wasn't a fan of the horchata coffee. Despite having the cinnamon roll warmed up, it was surprisingly stale and lacking flavor. The drinks were okay but not sure they're worth the price. Unfortunately, I wouldn't recommend the food.It is cute and modern, but don't go in with the expectation to have a nice, sit-down experience. It's a small building with no indoor seating, and no bathroom--definitely a grab & go place. I can say the service was good! Fast and kind.

Honestly, before I came to this location, I was not a fan of Peet's! I had been to multiple Peet's locations and nothing ever really stood out to me.I started coming here 2-3 times a week because of how close my work is. This is where I learned to love the establishment. I am an avid matcha latte fan. For the longest time I was getting my matcha lattes here wrong! I always wondered why they never tasted that good, and I realized it was just because I wasn't tailoring it to my liking.Mirella is my favorite! She helped me figure out that I should substitute the simple syrup in the matcha latte with honey syrup, and I eventually learned to add extra matcha so that I could taste more matcha flavor. She and the other baristas are always super friendly, even when I stop by at 6:15 am on a weekday (I know everyone is just waking up too, but they're always up there with warm and welcoming attitudes).Definitely better than any other Peet's location out there. Wonderful people, wonderful drinks, everything is perfect. Wouldn't change a thing!(No seating inside or outside btw - just a grab & go type of place.)

The matcha lattes at Peet's are always on point! Also, the staff are all friendly and prepare the drinks with care! My first time here, I ordered a medium size and the person taking my order was very generous and she gave me a large. Today, the person preparing my order was so attentive to detail, he even called out to me to offer me a more comfortable size straw for my drink!

I live out of town where there is no Peets. When I come visit, the Homer Street store is the 1 I always come back to. The service,drinks,food and vibe are always that pleasant, Berkeley, laid back type of feeling. Mariela( I hope that's right) is always so sweet and a consistent. Now that Anthony is back????,OMG he is such a refreshing breath of air

I give this place 4 stars because of the people who work there are amazing and remember my order and it's always amazing. Except for the guy with the long hair and glasses. He's a complete a*** Rude and slow and can't make a drink to save his life. If I'm paying almost $8 for a coffee at least make it how I ordered it and give me what I pay for. All the other staff is great!! He's the dark cloud over that place.
Rude and terrible customer service here today from Victoria! I ordered a London Fog from friendly cashier Molly. Victoria proceeded to tell her incorrectly how to make it (telling her to make it with Chai tea instead of Earl Grey). When I corrected that and asked what the price would be, Victoria rudely ignored my question. She would not speak to me. Finally, instead of giving a clear answer on the price, she said, "I'll give you a receipt," like she wasn't willing to take the time to figure it out. We left. We weren't willing to put up with that rude service another minute. Won't be back. Ridiculously bad customer service.

They serve great coffee here. The latte was well prepared--not too bitter and with the right amount of milk. Cinnamon coffee cake was a great complement to the latte. Make sure they heat up the coffee cake! There is no seating inside but you will find a a long, small standing table if you want to lounge around a tiny bit.

I always try to support my local establishments. I have been coming here for over 15 years and have had good experiences with friendly efficient baristas. All I wanted today was to buy two pounds of whole beans, and I happened to be in a bit of a time crunch.When I arrived, there was only one person in front of me and no one in line behind me. I ordered $38 plus tax and tip of coffee beans. They made me wait until others behind me get their coffee's first. All the baristas were busy taking orders of patrons in line behind me and making coffee, accept for the man with long hair who was wondering back and forth not doing much. I signaled that I was still waiting for my whole beans to the woman who took my order. She asked this man to prepare my beans and continued to take orders from other people in line. Knowing I was in a hurry, he made sure to go as slowly as possible, irritated that he was asked to help me. At one point, I had to move out of the way for others and stepped on a bean which made a popping sound. He stops filling the coffee and turns around to gave me a rude stare as though I'd made that sound on purpose. (Huh? Am I supposed to be intimidated just because you're a foot taller than me?! I believe my purchase contributed to your pay. You did not deserve the tip!). He sarcastically says "thanks for waiting" while handing me my long awaited beans. It's really too bad as I liked this local establishment. But if this is the kind of "service" to expect, it's much more pleasant for me to buy my beans at Starbucks or Verve even if they are a bit out of the way.Learning opportunity: It only takes one experience like this to loose a repeat customer forever. I am also in the service industry and will use this incident to remind my coworkers if we can't deliver in a timely fashion, the patrons should still be treated with respect. As the old saying goes: Treat people the way you want to be treated!
