We last minute wanted to do bánh mì catering for late night snacks at our wedding. We reached out to them about 2 weeks before the wedding and they were so awesome and accommodating to work with. We ended up getting grilled pork and chicken ones and they were an absolute hit. People were hoarding them too! I highly recommend working with them for your catering needs

They were super friendly, and when I asked the owner what to get she was really nice about making a drink that I like. I got a "Peach of My Heart" but had the Earl Grey changed to Oolong with their brown boba and it's delicious!

The folks who work there are friendly and lovely people! This is my go to spot for a quick pork rice plate, it's very tasty.

If you're ordering anything but coffee, prepare to wait a while. Also, for a mocha +1 extra shot was $8.00!! That formally beats out Starbucks and for smaller size cup. May want to provide just a bit better value considering

Love poppy kitchen! The drive through is so convenient and I love the food options. We frequently get chicken ball or the rice dishes. Great value for the price!

I love Poppy Boba Cafe. The drive-thru is so nice, the staff is always friendly and efficient, and the drinks are exceptional. I look forward several times a week to my black milk tea (with boba of course). I like that I can customize it with or without sugar or with oat milk instead of the standard way. And who can argue over free topping day on Tuesdays. Oh, and the food is tasty, too! Although the review says so, I am not from San Francisco!

It's tiny but it's mighty! We had the Mo'reo please and the Vietnamese iced coffee. Both were so good! The Mo'reo was creamy and had an Oreo in it! The Vietnamese coffee was a great pick me up. We also had the chance to order the grilled chicken bahn mi and I regret not getting two. Costumer service was 1000/10. If you get the chance, give it a try!

Found this place on accident while driving through the area! My boyfriend and I saw a "boba" sign so we made the impulsive decision to drive thru here and were so HAPPY we did! We got the Thai Tanic and the Pork Banh Mi - I'm not usually a fan of pork but this banh mi was the best I've ever had! Bread was soft, vegetables were fresh and the cashier was super friendly.

So cute! This little drive-thru had a lot of menu options and great service, my Iychee iced tea came with real lychees and my musubi was yummy.

******SIX STAR REVIEW!!!!!! Joshua, Andrea and Isai are exceptionally gifted baristas!!!!!! The Vietnamese style coffee they serve here is incredibly delicious, delightful and perfect, every time we visit. Their noteworthy service with smiles is absolutely positively fabulous. They are righteous people creating righteous things. They are Superstars. I also like the fact that Josh is a fellow "Chevy Guy" and his knowledge of engines, superchargers, racing and performance is next gen and phenomenal. It's a real treat to break away from our normal daily coffee routine and come here. My wife and I are now regulars at this Poppy Boba Cafe location, in good old Rancho Bernardo proper!!!!!! I give my highest recommendations!!!!!! Thanks again!!!!!! VRS "JJ"
