Coffeebar

This was my first time ever going to this coffee shop. I've always seen a lot of people go into this building with a briefcase or laptop, but I honestly thought it was an office building and not a workspace/coffee shop!! Lol. I was rather shocked to see it was a coffee shop, and I liked all their seasonal winter drinks! I wanted to try the Nordic water, but the barista said sadly they got hit really hard on Sunday with a bunch of coffee lovers and they ran out of the mixture. I decided to get a regular latte with almond milk and a gluten-free blueberry muffin as well as a chocolate croissant! All three items were delicious, and I was really surprised how creamy the almond milk was on the latte!! Almond milk usually taste kind of flat to me, but this almost taste like a hemp milk or perhaps a macadamia nut milk! I was very impressed!! Not to mention the gluten-free blueberry muffin, and the giant chocolate croissant was so flaky and crunchy with the perfect amount of chocolate inside!! Inside, there were two different work areas one could go to while the register area was towards the middle of the store. I really wish I could work from home and sit in this coffee shop all day and order lunch, a salad and maybe some avocado toast with a nice glass of wine! No joke they had all of that and more!! The only thing I would keep from giving them five stars is the area in which you're supposed to wait/ stand as you're waiting for your drink. Since this was my first time here and it was a Monday around 11 AM, there seem to be a lot of people coming and going by the pick up counter. I stood off to the side, but I felt as if I was getting in everyone's way either in front or behind me. Lol the restrooms are also to the right hand side, so perhaps they were all going to and from the restroom or getting a booth?! Nevertheless, I didn't want to stand in the back of the café, where you could doctor up your drink because there's a trashcan there, but | felt I would block the walkway for people coming out of that seating area as well. Lol. I will definitely go back again, and I can't wait to try that Nordic latte!!

This place wins stars for ambience. Cold brew and energy bites were great; choc croissant is a bit on the dry side, needing more flakiness. Cafe au lait is heavy on the dairy, despite using 2%

While it's spacious and good for studying, to be honest, the coffee was worse than I expected for the price. I've never seen a $7 latte served without any latte art. The same goes for the americano. It used to have good crema, but not anymore.

The Coffee Bar is one of those rare spots that nails both style and substance. It’s a spacious, beautifully designed space that manages to feel both lively and laid-back. The baristas are genuinely kind—no pretentious vibes here—just good energy and great coffee. I had the light roast flat white, and it was everything I want in a cup: bright, smooth, and flavorful with zero bitterness. And don’t sleep on the peanut butter protein ball—it’s the kind of snack you think you’re being “healthy” for ordering, but then you end up craving it for the flavor alone. Whether you’re catching up with a friend, getting some work done, or just soaking in the scene, this place delivers. Already looking forward to coming back.

Ambience is nice and it’s great for studying. It can be pretty crowded though especially once school hours are over. Prices are pretty high tho — an 8oz coffee is almost $8. Insane. I like coming here for the study vibes but I cant justify coming often because of the prices as it adds up. I will say that I wasn’t super impressed by their coffee or matcha.

Their orange cranberry muffin was soo delicious. Definitely must try. Also their croissant, very flaky and tasty. But, got disappointed with latte. They said they don't have cups and served in to-go cups which is okay. But, the latte was really light and didn't have coffee aroma. Previous times I had visited, their latte used to be good - maybe depends on the day. I prefer their redwood city location for latte as they are consistently excellent. Also, getting a seat inside during the weekend is impossible. Most people work there and occupy entire table - when we visited we saw one person per table with their laptops even if it was a four seater. Maybe they could change this seating policy.

Great find! After a 3 hour trek to our taekwondo tournament this was a welcomed treat. The coffee was not made up of sugar and the muffin & lemon cookie were fresh and tasty. The inside was spacious with space to watch a wall sized TV.

Busy coffee shop when we arrived. I think it could be because of car show at the parking lot. Our cashier was not that friendly. It could be because the shop was very crowded. I prefer the Redwood city location. We ordered latte and waffle. They are yummy. Something is misleading. I see that cold latte comes with 16 oz. I said I wanted 16 oz, and the person said it only comes with 12 oz.

This is my second Coffeebar location after visiting the Truckee one, and Menlo Park has the same relaxed, elevated vibe I liked there. It's not just a coffee shop -- they serve alcohol and food as well, so it works for everything from a quick caffeine stop to a casual meal. We ordered a matcha latte and the autumn spice tea latte, and both were solid. Well-balanced, not overly sweet, and great for a cozy afternoon. I already know I want to try their rooibos chai next time. For food, we shared the chicken and rice dish. Generous portion, plenty of avocado, and it tasted fresh and healthy without feeling boring. A great option if you want something more substantial than pastries.

Got a pumpkin latte, it was ok but they put so much cardamom on top I couldn't taste the pumpkin for a while... and I don't like cardamom so.... The veggie panini was good, nothing special. Visually it was underwhelming. The bread was crunchy. You can't go wrong with cheese, Basil & tomatoes... definitely wants worth $14... The place is spacious and packed! Staff are nice. But we ordered for here and they gave it to-go and person after us had ordered to go and gave him for here. And it took a long time for our stuff to be ready. So service was a bit off...

This is a really cute coffee shop in Menlo Park and probably the best coffee shop I've been to for studying. They have really comfortable booths and a huge variety of seating. The food menu is amazing. My only disappointment was that they couldn't take the cheese out of the breakfast burrito since it's premade. Instead I had the hot oats with peanut butter and it was delicious. I also had a dirty chai latte with oat milk that was amazing. Not too spicy, not too sweet. I liked the music selection and that it wasn't too loud. This is a great place to work, solo date or a meetup!

Coffeebar is a cute coffee shop in downtown Menlo Park. Has lots of parking and great vibes. The lion on the outside door reminded me of lion king. Inside looks like a Starbucks converted into their own. I really love the look of this place and their drinks are great too. I usually get a hot mocha here and it's never failed. If I didn't have to hurry to work I would definitely take my time and enjoy this place. Coffeebar is a staple

I'm a huge fan of this coffee shop and their coffee. I love the interior design with it's nature feel and tree-trunk tables, etc. The coffee shop is huge with plenty of seating. There are different things going on in here from people just chatting it up with their friends, individuals studying and doing business work. I love the diversity, not to mention the radio station that was just on this morning was awesome! They were playing Teddy Pendergrass! The flap sign menu is such a great idea. Every so often, the board flips the menu into a new saying/quote. They have a good variety of pastries and sweet goods along with an actual lunch menu and afternoon wine for the adults. I tried their dark roast which was the Giuseppe flavor. It's pretty bold with a silky texture. I also like how they sell coffee by the 8 oz cup which is awesome because sometimes, a 12 oz cup can be a bit too much. Refills for drips are $1 which is reasonable. The employees here are nice and very friendly. There is no complaint from me. I like Coffee Bar and what they have to offer!

This is a great, spacious cafe for working or chatting with friends! I love the ambiance, and the staff here are so friendly. Most importantly, the drink selection is awesome--with so many options to try! I can't wait to come back and explore more of the coffee menu. The cinnamon roll was surprisingly good; it looked really sweet but wasn't overly sugary, just what I was hoping for! I'll definitely be back. There's free parking right in front, along with street parking, and many great restaurants nearby. It's the perfect spot to visit before or after a meal!

Coffee and food are really good. The service is great everyone is nice and helpful. The atmosphere here and vibe is cool. I come here about 2 times a week and it's always busy but they are fast. Seating is limited, most people camp out and work so that plays a big factor in finding a place to sit. If you're doing a grab and go it's usually quick.

This place has a very cool vibe - dog friendly place. The people taking the orders were smiling and relaxed. The avocado toast was great and the rice bowl was yum. I really enjoyed the lavender mocha. There was a car show going on - felt like I was in Monterey but didn't have huge crowds - just people who enjoy cars and loved sharing their passions.

I came back today after a few months away, having visited regularly before I graduated. Unfortunately, this experience was quite disappointing compared to my previous visits. When I ordered, the cashier was unusually terse, sticking to one-word questions--"name, size, to-go?"--with no greeting or friendliness. I asked for a latte and a cookie, warmed, to have here, but the cookie was handed to me in a bag instead of on a plate. I clarified again that I wanted it warmed, and she microwaved the cookie--with the bag--for about 30 seconds, which made it so hot I could barely hold it. The barista who called my name seemed rushed, even though there weren't any customers behind me. I noticed her set down another customer's latte so abruptly that it sloshed and spilled on the counter, which she didn't clean up. When she set down my drink, she did the same thing, although luckily it didn't spill. The coffee and cookie themselves were still good, as always. However, I was honestly shocked at the decline in service, since I've consistently had great experiences here in the past. I made a special trip to get some work done here, but after today, I'm considering other options for the future.

I ordered a matcha latte and wow where is the matcha? :( I got pure milk so disappointed after what I paid

Hailing from the Lake Tahoe area, I went when they first opened, and giggled at their linguine coffee stirrers. I told myself I'd come back for the "bar" part of the shop but mostly failed to do so. I visited multiple stores including on the ski slopes, and told people about this large beautiful space. One critical thing that has gone downhill in the past few years is the coffee. There are a lot of top notch roasteries and baristas all around the Bay Area, and while I can settle for an average espresso if there are good pastries, the varying quality of the pull is a dealbreaker. I still like the space and would hang out here whenever I'm in downtown (although that has diminished since good coffee places have opened up across the tracks). The space is still nice, the staff is still friendly, but perhaps my taste in coffee has moved on.

It would be nice if this store was on doordash. We have to go to Redwood City Coffeebar for food and pastries when we put orders through doordash. * Environment friendly (recycle, compost, landfill supported), personal cup disocunt -$1.00 Good coffee, hard working smiling baristas. Pros - Tall seats in the front - Personal cup discounts - Nice Gibraltar and small coffee options Cons - nice part of the outside seating is gone; it's all parking spot now :( Closes 6pm everyday.

The grumpy lady at the counter spoiled our Sunday breakfast . Why do they hire people who obviously hate their job? Food good though , fortunately.

Good coffee. Nice staff. Large with tables for groups. Indoor and outdoor tables. Booths.

I got a double iced mocha which was about $6. I liked that it wasn't too sweet. I also got the huge chocolate chip cookie which I had higher expectations for. The dough is nice but I wish there were more chocolate shards throughout. The music selection was very fun indie rock which was a good vibe. There's a lot of seating but also a lot of people. Only some tables have outlets. Free wi-fi! Ample parking in lots nearby with a 3 hour limit.

I have gone here a few times during my lunch break from clinicals. Friendly service and a pretty chill spot. The sandwiches to me are average and a bit pricey in my opinion, but the coffee is really good!

I love coming here after work. They have the best coffee and the best pastries. They also have a good selection of food if you're hungry for more than a pastry! I loved their seasonal latte. I will be coming back and ordering that again. There's seats and tables for you to sit and study if you need a free Wi-Fi so that helps a lot when I have a lot of homework to do. Can't wait to try all the other drinks from their menu would definitely recommend. The ambience is amazing in there as well.

It's so nice to find a fairly large sized coffee shop around the area where you can sit and do work! Their matcha latte is my go to and has a pretty good deep, slightly bitter matcha flavor which is what I prefer when it comes to the taste of matcha lattes. The chorizo breakfast burrito is super solid and though not huge, will leave you satiated. Would definitely return to try the breakfast egg sandwich! Don't forget to grab a giant chocolate chip cookie to go to share with someone! Parking is plentiful in the parking lot!

I love Coffeebar! This is one of the best coffee shops around! Coffee is amazing, it is seriously one of the top best spots for quality coffee which is generally always made well here. I love their food and pastries, have tried quite a few like veggie or sausage burrito, salads, avocado toast and a great variety of pastries. Their earl grey bun is so delicious and always sells out pretty quick, I highly recommend it! You can have pastries microwaved to warm up. The employees here work really hard, many of them are really easy going and helpful when ordering. I love their crew. And when I say they work really hard, I mean it. This place is packed like non stop. Sometimes you're lucky not having to stand in a line for long, other times it will take a bit to order your coffee so keep that in mind. It's not a drive through express service. They don't have a drive thru btw. The only downfall to this place is finding a seat anywhere how busy it is. Especially during cold weather, inside gets packed with people taking up chairs and tables for ages. Lots of laptops around and people pretty much never leaving the coffee shop. I think what makes this place most challenging is the customer base that frequents this coffee shop which is not the coffee shop's fault. Let's just say the customers are not much friendly or welcoming. Even though you pay tip, it is appreciated if you pick up after yourself. But a lot of customers don't and just leave stuff around like entitled savages. The staff here picks up and cleans after customers but it is super busy so it's hard for them to keep up sometimes. I commend the staff servicing such difficult clientele in this area. They usually run out of in house mugs so I recommend to bring your own mug otherwise you'll have to get a to go paper cup quite often. Often they've been out of saucers as well. I bring my own water glass as well. They have a water dispensing area. I just prefer to use less disposable cups and have my own coffee mugs when I can. They have a coffee mug program too where you pay monthly and you can have your coffee mug reserved there for use I believe. I haven't tried it yet because I bring my own coffee mugs instead when I can. I love drinking out of house mugs than paper cups. It's up to you, if the compostable paper mugs don't bug you as much then you're fine either way. Always get your receipt, I do via text. Often there's so many orders and your spot in line might get lost etc. I just politely remind them about my food order. It takes some time to get your drink and food as like I said they're super busy all the time pretty much. There's some outdoor seating that's nice, indoor is comfier I think. Booths are always claimed for hours, it's kind of a miracle if you get to sit on one as like I said customers here spend hours on their laptops, zoom/phone calls and are so self centered as the whole world apparently evolves around them all the time... I am so appreciative for the amazing coffee, food and staff that puts up with these entitled customers. Yes I tip and I'm happy to support the staff here who are working really hard to keep up with so many orders and I do put away my trash. I find it to be a courtesy of decency I'd like to exhibit. There's a parking lot for the coffee shop and street parking as well. Often they can be packed. Give yourself some patience when coming here to spend the time to find parking, a spot to sit in and your coffee and food to arrive. They're busy because the coffee shop is awesome. I love the music they play here, always good beats whether it is indie, r&b, the playlists are amazing. I love coming here and enjoying their coffee and food many many times. Highly recommend this coffee shop!

Cute coffee shop with plenty of seating. They also have a parking lot right next door and plenty of street parking! My friend really enjoyed their jasmine rose tea. While I was here I tried their cheddar scone and ube latte. While I didn't try their other food options, they have an expansive food menu that includes both light bites and more heavy items. I noticed that by mid afternoon they had run out of most of their pastries and some milks including coconut milk. Overall enjoyed the vibe here, love the large amount of space and friendly workers. It's a great place to catch up with some friends or do some work. Their hours are quite awesome, opening in the morning at 6:30 and closing at 6pm.

Iced ube latte was mediocre, had a slight ube flavor but I was hoping for stronger. Jasmine rose latte tasted better. Accurate flavor profile and milk foam was made well. Earl grey morning bun tasted just like Earl grey tea, but the pastry itself could've been softer. There is indoor and outdoor seating if you want to work, study, read, or do whatever. However the only tables available when I went were kind of dirty and I had to wipe them down myself.

We were trying to find something to drink after brunch and my friend found this place on Yelp! The interior was so cute and there were a lot of people studying.     I got a matcha latte with oat milk and it was so good!!! They also had small bites like avocado toast and pastries. I thought it was cool how the menu sign changed letters. The cashier was also super nice!     I definitely recommend coming here if you need to study or if you just need a coffee break to start your day if you're in the Palo Alto area!

I have been going to this location to study recently and have had their iced matcha latte with oat milk and chicken rice bowl. The iced matcha latte didn't have a super strong matcha flavor and tasted more like milk. The chicken rice bowl was good and the green goddess dressing tay went with it paired well. This will likely be a new go to spot for me. The staff was friendly and the place is a great environment to meet up with people or do some work.

This is a fantastic spot for a quality coffee and getting some work done. The café is spacious, with tables well spaced out. I wish they would extend their hours since they close at 2 PM.

This is one of the hidden gems of Redwood City coffee scene. This entire lane looks like it's built for tourists, and there are a lot of restaurants, small little coffee, shops, and boutiques built an amazing vibe there. When you enter this coffee shop, you would see open seating, and their system is pretty well designed to go place the order and take the available Table or perhaps share a table with somebody and have a little chat with somebody. We took a regular cappuccino, a coffee or breakfast with sandwich shakshuka Their services grade but I felt that it was not well organized. They could have been even faster. We saw the orders coming in for others who came after us but still I would go back and enjoy a good vibe and have a nice coffee. They were really nice.

One of my favorite spots--Coffeebar is a gem. It's the perfect place to study, with a steady flow of fellow regulars and frequent flyers. The vibe is always welcoming, and the staff genuinely go out of their way to make your day better. Huge shoutout to Felmer, who noticed I was having a rough one and surprised me with a freshly brewed coffee. That small gesture meant a lot. Kindness like that keeps me coming back.

I went with my friend, she had a friend that recommended this place. Located right there by Oak Grove on Chestnut it just left a bit of a sour taste in my mouth. I mean clearly if I wanted to be in a study hall at a University on a weekend I could be. It just really is distracting. Especially when these people are taking up a whole table and have not bought anything. So frustrating. All the poor patrons that have to sit outside, or have no place to sit. Consequently since study hall was in session ;-) we had to sit outside. I will say that their almond croissant was great, the coffee not so much. Perhaps it since it was lukewarm and in a big chipped cup. So that was really not my favorite. So without too much negativity and complaining here, what was good? So the service and the people that worked there were great , their pastries were nice! So there you have it. ;

I stopped by this coffee shop a few days ago and really enjoyed it. It's pretty spacious inside, you don't feel cramped. Nice music, good coffee selection, and a couple of tasty pastries made my visit here enjoyable.

Just the absolute best coffee shop - great great drinks and I always stay to order the lunch. They make the healthiest, and tastiest lunches. Such a welcome alternative to croissants and carrot cakes. Great staff, great music and good crowd. Lovely interiors that make you want to stay a while. Also, if you haven't already give their peanut butter and banana toast a try. Thank me later! :)

Spacious, friendly service and delicious food. Stopped by a few weekends ago for a quick lunch bite before errands. I ordered the breakfast burrito and a lemonade, both absolutely (and surprisingly) delicious. The space itself is very large with a decent amount of parking in the vicinity, along with some outdoor seating. It's usually pretty crowded, lots of students camping out with laptops, so you may need to go at slightly off times to find a seat (we were there around 1pm on a Saturday). Overall, your typical coffee shop in terms of atmosphere, coffee quality and vibes, but the food quality was really impressive- would definitely stop by again.

One of their busier locations, I'd recommend visiting after morning bustle (9am or later) and order ahead.

Food - delish drinks Service - friendly and welcoming w/ a a smile Ambiance - busy with lots of patrons Thought it was just me, but when I hear cute little school aged kids that say "Is the music extra loud in here?!? I chuckle and in my head I say yes I can't hear myself think and I guess it drowns out other folks' conversations. Bring noise canceling headphones if you want to relax or work on your computer.

Bleh. Ordered a plain iced latte along with some kind of special menu tea latte (London fog or something?) - both basically tasted like water with a splash of milk. Super diluted and flavorless. Really disappointing. The inside is nice and I can definitely understand why students love to chill here. It's a great vibe, although there was a homeless dude loitering outside and leaving a pungent cloud of piss smell wafting around in the air. Super uncomfortable when you're trying to hang out and drink / eat, so we quickly downed our drinks and BOOKED IT.

The matcha latte was good but they accidentally made mine hot instead of iced. Cinnamon bun was surprisingly incredible. Great place to loiter on a weekend or study. Great pastries

Coffee used to be great and sometime it still is. Though you will never know what you are going to get! I'm there mainly for coffee but have stopped going. If you are ready to wait for 15 minutes and sometimes 20 minutes for your coffee then go ahead and order your coffee there otherwise coffee bar in Redwood City is 10 times better.

Perfect vibes to get some work done at a cafe. - The music they play here is chefs kiss and they have lots of seating areas like booths and bar seating as well as outdoor seating. - Lavender latte was floral and not too sweet, earl grey bun was so delicious and cheddar scone was a savory treat with good consistency. - Service is also very good and nice people! - Wifi is free but a bit slow

Love the ambiance! Great music and aesthetic inside for a remote work day. The coffee is amazing! Try a dirty coconut chai latte or the honey almond latte. The food, however, is not astounding. It's good, not great. In Menlo Park, the bar is pretty high on quality. For that reason, I withhold the fifth star for the price point.

Very nice coffee shop / bar! Great for meeting my clients and do some business. I like their drink menu.. I mostly get my black coffee and it tastes good!! Very convenient where you order, and get your coffee and sit. It's a lively and social place.

This is a nice place to have a coffee catchup with friends or even to set up to work for the day. The coffee selection was great and there were a fair amount of vegan options as well. The shop itself had a good ambiance about it and it was well-equipped for WFH folks in the area. The coffee was well-made. I wouldn't say this would be a destination coffeeshop for me, but definitely a nice place to set up to work for the day when in the area.

Came here for getting some work done on a Tuesday morning. The place was packed by mid-morning, and I was able to find a seat on one of the long tables. Loved the natural lighting and fast Internet. There are many outlets along the windows, as well as the booths in the alcove. It very much is a place with a work-from-the-coffee-shop energy, at least on the weekday I was there. The weekend might be better for more relaxing cafe vibes. The minus one-star review is for the quality of the coffee. I got a regular latte and it was just very milky - not a strong espresso flavor that I usually expect from other coffee shops. I was also confused why my order came after other customers' larger (multiple coffee) orders despite ordering ahead of them .. not a huge deal though. I would come back again for the productivity vibes and environment but not so much for any unique or strong coffee.

The pastries are really sweet, a little too much for me. The coffee drinks have a lot of bitterness, and i say this as a regular espresso drinker. Music is pretty loud, and i find it very hard to focus when working here. Furniture is aesthetically pleasing. Staff is nice.

Coffeebar is one of my go-to spots for studying! This location has a large parking lot and lots of seats inside, though on weekends it's sure to be full. There are also outlets along the walls! I've tried a few drinks from here, including americanos, lattes, and a seasonal drink-- their Autumn Fog Latte. I've also tried their smoked salmon cream cheese sandwich. While the drinks and food are really good, they are all very expensive. However, you're paying for the high quality and great ambience. My only advice is to avoid coming here on weekends because it can be really chaotic.

This location is a bustling spot with solid food and higher-end coffee shop vibes. It's a very common place for menlo students to study after school and for middle-aged folk to chat or hangout. Service is good but nothing special; however, it is very pricey, and the small size thin mint latte I got was XXS.

Seocnd review for Cofferbar - this place never fails to disappoint :) Feeling like venturing out of my comfort zone ordering my usual matcha latte, so I tried their pumpkin spice latte today. And whoa - so good!! Not too sweet like I expected! They make their pumpkin spice in-house with just the right amount of sweetness and balance it with a dash of sugar- salt! Simply amazing! It's seasonal so come try while it's still available ;)

Super cute place! It's so spacious inside with big windows and very modern and simple interior design. We came by around 11a on a Saturday morning and the place was packed. Service: 10/10. Everyone we interacted with from cashier to barista was really nice, pleasant, and friendly. Drinks and food: 10/10. Lavender latte with whole milk - Could taste and smell lavender. Very creamy and sweet. Vanilla latte with whole milk - Creamy but wasn't as sweet like we expected! Earl grey morning bun - What's a better way to start off a Saturday morning with sugar rush?! It was soooo delicious. Definitely could taste the earl grey and easily could feed up to 2 people. The bun was so soft and fluffy too!

This is the spot to go to meet a friend for coffee, read the newspaper or clickity-clack on your laptop. It's a large coffee shop with indoor and outdoor seating - high tops, long tables, a few booths and a small bar area. Lots of natural light. Service is great - the staff is welcoming and super nice! The tables and chairs could be cleaner though. Guessing they're not clean because as soon as someone gets up to leave, someone else scoops up the spot. However, it seems that they generally don't bus tables and dishes often [see pic]. Pro Tip: music is LOUD. I'm talkin' MJ's greatest hits on blast, so I wouldn't take any important calls or work projects in there. Still a nice vibe.

Came by for coffee the other day and it was a tasty experience. Parking is available on the street or in city-owned garages as Broadway is closed to cars. There was plenty of seating outdoor as well as inside the coffee shop. There were numerous pastries in the modern and super high-ceiling coffee shop. Ordered an 8 oz mocha and it was tasty. Temperature was on the warmer side. The latte art and foam was good. Espresso was smooth. $5.5 for a mocha.

Always a good coffee. There are mostly students studying in there. You can clearly sense a silicon valley student town vibe in there. Staff is all very friendly. Baked goods are yumm as well.

Great, dirty chai latte and a full pastry cabinet! This location is always bustling with good energy.
