30 Best Coffee Shops in Pleasanton

“I'm deeply grateful to Inklings' leadership for cancelling your partnership with The Global Leadership Network and Global Leadership Summit, in light of this organisation's ongoing choice to publicly honour their unrepentant sexual predator founder, Bill Hybels, rather than publicly, unambiguously naming and condemning his decades of sexual harassment and sexual assault. I see you standing up with and for those who have been harmed by religious predators, exactly like Jesus did. Thank you so much.“

“It was my first time here, and I ordered a few different types of donuts. They were all fluffy and my family really enjoyed them. They also had cake donuts, but I did not try any of those. Even before it closed, the selection was still pretty good. I especially loved the staff member working there, she was very patient and kind and happy to serve the customers. I will definitely be coming back here and would highly recommend trying it out if you are craving a doughnut.“

“This Peet's location is one of the best locations in the East Bay! The staff is super friendly, the drinks are always good, and the vibe is nice too! It can get super busy and packed on the weekends, but that's always a good thing! People are always coming here to hang out, study, work, etc. I go out of my way to specifically come to this Peet's location; that's how good it is. The baristas know me by name and I feel welcomed! I recommend the iced caramel macchiato - it's amazing.“

“Love coming here. Great crepes and fun to have them make your latte with a photo of your choice on it. Staff always so gracious and attentive.“

“Small locally owned cafe run by a sweet lady. So far have tried the Roasted rice matcha latte, strawberry matcha latte, mocha, and strawberry milk. The strawberries are all fresh and puree made in store. They offer so many different drinks, so i will definitely continue to be back and try more.“

“Wonderful experience of the dosas full menu is excellent and taste of chutney and sambar is too good“

“If you're swinging by Stoneridge Mall or just need a reliable mid-week pick-me-up, It's a Grind Coffeehouse in Pleasanton is a top-tier spot to recharge. It has that easygoing, neighborhood vibe where you can just relax but the quality of what they’re serving easily competes with any specialty shop.

The Drinks:

* Cold Brew: Legit, incredibly rich, and full-bodied. It has deep, bold earthy notes that hit just right without tasting bitter.
* Black Iced Tea: Bold and refreshing with a subtle, satisfying tannin tang that shows they brew it right.
* Espresso: Consistently smooth, nuanced, and packs the perfect punch.

The Vibe & Treats:

The pastry showcase is a serious hazard to any diet. Their desserts are mouthwatering and make the absolute best mid-week treat. The team provides an authentic and connected experience every single time. You get genuine smiles and warm service rather than a rushed transaction.

Next time you’re power-shopping at Stoneridge Mall or just need a solid caffeine fix, do yourself a favor and grab a cold brew or iced tea from It's a Grind.“

“Services great and nice people who work in the store“

“Stop what your doing and visit Heritage Bagel now. Was visiting the Pleasanton area and saw the Donut sign from the street as I was passing by. I did a u-turn to see if they could fulfill my craving for a egg and cheese jalapeño bagel. Walked in and was greeted with two bright beautiful smiles and loud good mornings. That actually made my day because not many business greet u with genuine happiness when you walk in. I asked the lady if they could make a egg and cheese jalapeño bagel. She smiled and said of course. 5 minutes later I'm eating the best tasting and most fresh jalapeño bagel sandwich ever. The jalapeño bagel was lightly toasted with a soft heavenly crunch. The cheese was melted to perfection and the egg to top it off ? If you are in the area stop by for this bomb breakfast. Even if you aren't in the area still stop by. It's well worth it. I didn't get the lady and gentleman name that greeted me and assisted me. But I'm sure they will be there to welcome you with their bright beautiful smiles and loving good morning.

Parking: Shopping Center with plenty of parking“

“Absolutely love iSee Cream! The matcha here is some of the best I’ve had. Their soft serve is incredibly creamy. The staff are friendly, the store is clean, and the service is always fast, even when it’s busy.

I also love that they’re always coming out with unique seasonal specials. The quality of the ingredients really shows in every item. If you’re looking for great matcha, soft serve, or Taiyaki in the Bay Area, iSee Cream is a must-visit. Highly recommend!“

“Delicious and very cozy cafe. We had a turmeric latte and affogato which were both really good. I added honey to the latte and I think it needed pepper, and next time I might add a shot of espresso just for fun! I will definitely come back next time I’m here charging my car. The cafe is really cute and would be a great place to study and catch up with a friend. The service was really good, too. Super kind and down to earth.“

“My top place for comfort Taiwan boba tea!“

“Great service highly recommended :) ☕“

“Beautiful outdoor patio & setting. Very relaxing atmosphere while sipping great coffee!!“

“I had a Vanilla Latte and a Breakfast Sandwich. The latte was standard coffee house fare. I enjoyed it. The breakfast sandwich was fine, but it was definitely something I could have made at home. Store bought bread, quickly out together omelette and 2 strips of bacon. For $16 it should be better than I can make at home“

“So I had to rewrite my review of this Starbucks cause the last one didn’t do it justice. My name is John and I drive to this Starbucks in my Blue Chevy work truck Every day. I’m the kind of guy that is a hard-working man all the time. At the end of my day, all I look forward to is my coffee, a cigarette, and some good rock ‘n’ roll.

Everybody that works at this Starbucks gets my order out in lightning speed like they’re practically one of the avengers And I’ve never had a wrong order given to me or lack of quality ever.

The personality of this group of people that work at the Starbucks are absolutely amazing. Every single person has a unique way of socializing and great customer service like you would expect when you go to spend your money.

I don’t just go there for the coffee every day I go there for the people. If you want to go to a Starbucks where they make you feel like a friend or family go to this location and I guarantee that that’s how they’ll make you feel.

Today, one of the barista’s Abby, Who is my favorite, Decided to come out and just simply say hi on her break because she saw me pull through the drive-through which I thought was really nice of her. Some people just have a unique way of being friendly with others and I would describe her personality and smile like the same feeling. I get looking at a Christmas tree on Christmas morning..

So ladies and gentlemen, you can’t go wrong At this location! If you’ve read to this point, I commend you for not rolling your eyes if you haven’t already, but I just love good old-fashioned great customer service.

“I love this starbucks!!!!! They always greet me and know my order. Lindsay is the best employee there!!! She makes my drinks so good and talks to me. She recommended me the best and yummiest drinks.

However, I do have an issue with the tall gentleman who works there. He is always so rude and makes my drink disgusting. I also overheard him saying crude remarks about other women there, and talking about beating his girlfriend. Makes my experience there unpleasant and I typically avoid going if I see him.“

“I always find great outfits there!“

“first there great service“

“Friendly staff, nice place to meet lwith friends 😍“

“This particular location feels very homey, the staff is extremely welcoming and non judgemental. I'm homeless but they never treat me different. I'm looking for work, I really like it here in Pleasanton. I can relax here... I don't have to worry about getting robbed while I'm sleeping“

“I was dying to try the new location on Santa Rita. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. The young lady who helped me encouraged me to take my time. She took the time to ask me my preferences and familiarize me with the menu. My drink was hot and delicious. Highly recommend!“

“Perfect pastries. Yummy and fun.“

“I Absolutely love the fruit teas here I usually get the passionfruit peach black tea! very refreshing on a hot day. bobafinitea's creme brulee Thai milk teas are also one of my favorites if I'm ever craving some BOBA! my family loves coming here to also try out the donuts.“

“My daughter and I went because I was craving BoBa and there it was.Nice clean restaurant.We where greeted by a young guy working behind the register.We placed our order on a kiosk it was easy and fast.We got our drinks they where so esthetic and delicious. We both asked for less sugar and they where.Also the mochi donuts where also delicious.The ambience was chill.Customers came and went.They do have alot of business but they are quick.will definitely come back!“

“I find this place as good afternoon break!“

“Stopped by and ordered a spicy chicken rice bowl and thai milk tea. The chicken was perfectly crispy and they drizzled teriyaki sauce on top and made the rice flavorful (not just salty). Don’t forget to ask to add boba in the thai tea, they are just incredibly chewy!!10/10 would recommend this spot if you’re also looking for a one stop shop for both teas and snacks.“

“Honestly, the BEST Starbucks. Why? Because the employees are actually the sweetest people. They remembered my name since day one, they always make me laugh, and now have become friends! Sometimes I don't even want coffee but I just look forward to seeing the awesome people there - they make my day!“

“It appears the review submitted by customer Aying Chen is for the wrong business and product entirely. The cake in question is not sold by Paris Baguette Pleasanton, and the photo clearly displays branding for Tous Les Jours. Whether this was an honest mistake or an intentional negative review, it is concerning to see other users adding to it.

Hopefully, the Paris Baguette Pleasanton management and franchise team are aware and taking steps to address this“

“muy buena atención gracias“
