Iced matcha was not strong enough, so I will try hot matcha next time. Also iced strawberry matcha is nice. They made my order wrong at first (matcha instead of strawberry matcha) so they gave me the matcha for free—super kind, thanks!

Line is long but fast, and seating may not look available at first but it cleared up for me. Love the vibe and furniture.

Worth the wait outside! The Mission Mocha was divine. And the Ube Marscarpone Toast was as decadent as it sounds. Can't wait to go back!

Today was my last day working in San Mateo/living in the Bay and of course I had to come by for coffee and matcha. I have been coming here 2-4 times a month since they opened and will truly miss this place! The service, friendly staff, and high quality drinks really stand out and make this place my favorite coffee shop in the bay. I’m sad to say goodbye!

I love this place!!! The service is amazing. Every coffee is made to perfection from the temperature to the roast. Come early as this place is very welcoming but it can be busy quick. You’ll want to sit here and take in ambiance.

Trending little spot. Gets very busy at times. Nice drinks overall, mocha is a bit too sweet too me. They use Dandelion chocolate from San Francisco for mocha which is a great plus.

This is a great local coffee shop with friendly baristas and good coffee. If you come during a time when it is slammed (usually early morning and mid day) expect to wait a bit to make your order, but it is worth it.

My favorite coffee shop in the bay. The staff is so kind and the coffee is so good.

Match is good. Tahitian vanilla latte is good. Time from register to drink in hand was very fast! Time from entering line to getting order taken is 1,000,000 years. They will take 5 minutes MINIMUM at the register. Only come if you have an hour and like standing in line. There are other good places with less wait.

I ordered the miso caramel at 75% sweetness, and it was delicious. I think next time I'd like to try it at 50% but that's not to say it was too sweet.
