Cafe X

AWESOME. A COFFEE-MAKING ROBOT! it lets you choose the blend of coffee you want and dispenses it. The robot also does the cutest little waves. Coffee was surprisingly good albeit a little expensive at 7.25 but it didn’t ask for tip so it cancels out for a regular Californian price latte. it offers oatmilk as well! The matcha is great and tastes like actual matcha. 10/10 would recommend.

This was fun. A robot making my coffee. When I got to the kiosk the screen was locked up. I had to manually cancel out each part of a large order then it worked. There were 3 kiosks The menu is simple. I got a late. 6.5 but no tip. Had a bit of a hassle it wanted a first name and initial. Just setting up with initials did not work. The coffee was made and presented on the counter. When I accepted the drink the robot put it in the cube for me to take. You need to put on the top yourself and no pattern in the milk. It tasted a little cinomony like there was a little carry over from another drink. It's a fun novelty

In A Nutshell: -The automatic robot coffee barista at SFO in Terminal 3 is cool to watch. -However, the quality of the Americano was just meh. -You are definitely paying to watch the robot do it's thing, as well as watching it wave hello to you in-between orders. Overall, for a little over $6, you get an average coffee, but a cool robot show you can enjoy. P.S. Soon your job will be replaced by a robot like this in the near future!

A cute small cafe in SFO airport terminal- which has a robot barista. You need to place order and pay online after scanning the QR code. Definitely it’s fun to watch the robotic arm preparing your drink. It’s quite fast- my iced Mocha ( with Ghirardelli dark chocolate) was great. I loved it, although it was a bit pricy that I must admit.

This machine is terrible and I would give a 0 if I could. I bought the honey creme cold brew but the machine is out of coffee. So instead I got a cup of only milk and I paid $6.25 for it. Also, the cup is really messy because the empty hose is trying to fill coffee but it was empty. So instead, it was spraying droplets. I wanted to get a refund and the contact for Cafex was almost impossible to find. Zero support and still waiting for a reply for a refund. I was very angry and upset with what I got.

The Theranos of coffee. They just put a bunch of different coffee machines in a box, and use a robotic arm to operate those machines. Literally the Theranos model. That might have been forgivable if it actually did it’s job—but it doesn’t. It brewed my drink and then put it down on the counter totally out of my reach. The family who ordered before me didn’t get their drink either—the robot apparently just threw their cup somewhere in the little booth. Save your money and go to one of the many coffee places around. Even if it manages to serve you, do you really want coffee from machines that don’t seem to be cleaned regularly?

This is definitely an only in San Francisco experience for sure. Had a layover on the way to Reno. All the other coffee shops were closed, so why not? This coffee was incredible and made by a robot. Needless to say, it was an experience and I was happily surprised. Would recommend if you are flying through.

Pretty cool to witness. Meh drink,
