this cafe is BEAUTIFUL. the ambience is great, its large so you can usually find a seat even though it can get crowded during peak hours. however some of their drinks need some improvement. their espresso based drinks are usually solid, but both the chai and matcha taste super weak and watery. I don't know if they make their chai in-house or just use a concentration but please make it stronger, it just tastes so milky without much spice. Same critique about the matcha.

Delightful & spacious interior.
Coming out of central San Francisco had to take 2 buses, cross a highway 3 times, & walk 18 minutes — but pretty worth it.

A beautiful cafe / restaurant with brunch foods in a corporate building surrounded by biotech companies. Seems like there’s some space devoted for those that work there but mostly the rest of space is open to the public. The coffee is really good and it’s a great place to get some work done in a peaceful, quiet area. The outside seating is also really nice!

Very nice decor, very good food. Fresh soups, sandwiches, and entree dishes. Great for lunch, relaxing atmosphere, spacious, inside and outside seating.
Wish I discovered this whenever they opened. Beautiful space, good food, not overly crowded, ample parking. Tip: Buy a coffee, then ask for wifi. Let’s keep this running. Don’t be stingy. Also impressive conference rooms, will give one a try.

Excellent place to get a bite to eat near sfo. I got a croissant with egg. You may need to park farther in a different parking lot but it’s easy to find and walk to.

Very impressive building, so much seating inside and outside. The interior + exterior are incredible, but the location is in an office building district. It's about 30 min walk from the train station as well. My iced oat milk latte was pretty good, and customer service was great! Most people in there were working, but some groups of friends. Great place for computer work.

Unique place to study and/or grab a meal. Very bright and open, more open space than seating. I had a chicken sandwich with greens and it was very good.

A great place to go for lunch or afternoon coffee. Very spacious indoor seating as well as outdoor patio. The only downside is that it might be hard to find parking during lunch hours.
