Nirvana Soul Coffee

What a great place for speciality coffee and lots of milk options. Love the spin on coffee favourites. And they make ‘off menu’ options too. Lovely people and best for an early morning brew, even decaf.

Tried this spot since we have heard alot about it. I really enjoyed the art and the customer service was very nice. We got an iced mocha extra chocolate with oat and iced latte with oat. Very very good 👍

Very cute spot, super friendly baristas and a perfect place to take a friend for a coffee date. The vibrant decor makes it unique and a vibe of its own. The reason for 4 stars is because I ordered a Matcha latte and the taste was off. I’ve ordered many matches from all over and this one just didn’t quite taste right / I think it has to do with the type of honey they use because I sweetened my drinks with honey. I would definitely give this place another shot.

This is my favorite coffee shop! The coffee is always excellent, with a wide variety of options to choose from. The atmosphere is great, with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, and the service is consistently fast and friendly. They also sell bags of their whole beans, which are really good for making espresso or cold brew. My favorites: - Cold Brew - White Rose Latte - Honey Lavender Latte - Iced Latte

I asked for less sweet and it was still extremely sweet. I couldn’t finish the drink and I could barely taste the coffee. It was a really nice space to work with easy parking in the attached parking garage and the employees were very nice, though, so I will probably be back to try the plain iced latte.

I love their coffee! Staff are super friendly. It was pretty buzzing even at noon.

I ordered this place very often. Eventually I brought half a gallon coffee to bring home and uses oat milk which is a bonus! Coffee is stronger than any other places and great taste too! Lavender Latte is my favorite and highly recommended ordering half a gallon to take home. It last me almost a week. (For Ube latte, it last about 5 days like they said. But lavender latte last a bit longer.)

The new location in cupertino for Nirvana soul. Amazing vibes with yummy sweet special lattes like San Jose downtown cafe. The staff is very friendly and serve you at their best. They have enough retail parking. Crunchy croissant and sweet tasty lattes are highlights.

Friendly and welcoming staff, loved that one of the staff enjoys shopping at Kill Crew too. Beautiful uplifting art. We got a teamosa, matcha and latte

Great coffee spot! There are about five tables inside plus some bar seating. The ambiance is nice and chill, and the workers are super friendly. I got the honey lavender latte (espresso, milk, lavender, and honey), and it was good. Service was quick, and they also have their own merch, which is cool. Would definitely come back!

Flavored coffee and waffles! I don't have a sophisticated enough palate to enjoy plain lattes so I'm always looking for places with extra flavor options and this shop had a ton. I ordered the golden child which is chai, espresso, milk, and turmeric. While the sugar and oat milk drowned out some of the spices it was still yummy for a cold day. I also got the bacon cheddar waffle as a snack and it slapped! Crispy waffle batter with savory chunks. Logistics: - indoor and outdoor seating - retail parking inside the complex the shop is located in, looking for parking entrances either side of the - very crowded and busy at 11am on a Sunday

What an awesome spot. Really fun specialty flavored lattes including rose, ube, and choc hazelnut. Super friendly and helpful staff too!

I love cafes with speciality latte options, which is why I was excited to try Nirvana Soul Coffee. This is a lively, cute cafe that seems to be pretty intertwined with the community based on some of the local flyers posted around the cashier/drink pickup area. When we arrived on a Saturday morning, there were a few people working on their laptops and chatting. We ordered two iced lattes -- the Celebration Latte and the Mabuhay Ube Latte. The ube latte was creamy and very aesthetic with its pretty purple color. The celebration latte had a mild birthday cake flavor which was a joyful sweet treat to start our morning. Overall, both drinks were delicious and I would come back!

I stumbled upon this cozy coffee shop and decided to try their ube latte. I'm so glad I did! The drink was expertly crafted, with a beautiful purple hue and a delicate foam. The flavors were rich and velvety, with a perfect balance of sweetness and ube goodness. Highly recommend this hidden gem! The servers are polite and friendly.

Matcha - 12/10! I really like sweet matcha and found the honey matcha drink they have to be very sweet but also super good! Ham & cheese croissant - 5/10. I didn't get a lot of ham in my croissant and that makes me very disappointed. Although it was decently priced, the lack of meat made the sensible price not matter. See picture to show the lack of sustenance I'm taking about. Employees - 10/10. Extremely friendly, sweet, and helpful! They were very kind and helpful with suggestions and making my drink the way I ordered it. Parking - 2/10. It's very limited from what I saw (street parking) but I didn't investigate what looks like a parking garage. People also double park others picking up a quick Ubereats or DoorDash delivery. Overall, I would come back if I was in the area for the matcha latte, but I wouldn't order breakfast again. It's a cute vibey place with sweet matcha and that's what I was looking for when I found this adorable hole in the wall.

I love supporting local coffee shops. I don't go to coffee often so I ordered the ube latte and that was a treat! Really cute place. I recommend the iced ube latte if you like coconut. They made it less sweet for me too. Nice ambiance and cool artwork.

I was pretty hyped up for this place. Great environment for a casual coffee. Most people take to-go and leave. I enjoyed the latte, and it was prepared with love and care. Waffle was solid and was a great complement to the latte. For people trying this place for the first time, make sure to double-check with the barista about sugar levels. My latte was pretty sweet. If that's an issue, you might want to go with something darker to complement the sweet waffle.

A tasty cup of coffee always makes for a great to pick me up in the morning. Nirvana Soul Coffee has a couple of locations throughout the Bay Area, but my go-to location is this Cupertino location. There is available street parking in the front of the store and I was able to find parking easily. They have an extensive menu of coffee from traditional espresso to specialty lattes. The Mabuhay Ube Latte includes espresso, milk, Ube, and coconut and it is a tasty blend of flavors, but definitely on the sweeter side. I would ask for less sweet next time if they are able to do that. For my second visit, I purchased some coffee beans. I chose the Simpatica house blend and it is pretty good for my home brew coffee. They also offered to grind the beans. Overall, I enjoy this local coffee shop and would recommend trying them if you're looking for some coffee in the area.

I love supporting local businesses. This one is very easy to do! Service is great. The drinks and pastries are varied and delicious as well. My Ube Matcha Latte "hit the spot" one early morning, on my way to work. The Matcha cookie was huge and very good!

There's so much to love about Nirvana Soul it's hard to begin. Coming into the shop you're met with a burst of art and color. The walls are wall to wall murals that will have you wanting to take photos. It's hard not to smile at all of the personality this cafe brings. Every barista seemed so happy and were a joy to talk to. There's a collection of merch to browse through and a refrigerated area if you want to pick up your favorite drink in a half gallon and pastries if you're in the mood for a snack. I picked up a tote with a half gallon of their honey lavender latte and a cup of lovers quarrel. There was a wait after ordering but what I could see I had come in just after a large door dash order. The lovers Quarrel is a spicy chai that really brings its competitors to its knees. The spice was the perfect kick mixed with rose to bring a complexity to elevate this tea to next level yum. The drinks here have a good sweetness to the for all my sweet tooth friends. But don't worry they have all your favorite traditional drinks and a mean cold brew too. Every step in this family/woman/black owned business is a complete joy that will bring Nirvana to your Soul.

So happy we discovered this place! We tried the ube and the celebration latte, and while we really enjoyed both, the Ube latte was spectacular. It had a great ube flavor with a hint of coconut milk (not fake coconut flavoring but like real good coconut flavor). We loved it!

I'm late to the game but so happy that I finally got to try this place! I came here with a friend and got their iced mabuhay ube latte. The drink was sweet and delicious and I enjoyed the ube flavor. My friend said their drinks are usually on the sweeter side (perfect for me) but you can ask the barista to make them less sweet. The cashier was super sweet and the store had a nice and welcoming ambiance and good amount of seating inside and outside. It wasn't too busy when we went so we were able to snag the couch in the corner. I'll definitely come back when I'm in the area but I hope they open more locations closer to the East Bay so I can try their lattes more often :)

Coffee 5 - Always great, I normally go for drip - Didn't get it this time, but in the winter I their Golden Child Service 5 - The staff at POS is friendly and always quick to offer a smile - Service is efficient - Management lets the staff show their personalities and that adds up Ambiance 5 - It's not just the coffee that will pick you up, the energy and vibe of the place will too - Great art, goods from local makers, and the music is ALWAYS bumping Environmental 3 - Nothing but paper or plastic (water) cups - No composting bins although most of the paper and napkins for their food items can be composted

I came here recently and got the Mabuhay Ube Latte. Staff was super friendly; I came closer to closing, so they needed to collect their outdoor seating, but they offered to let me keep sitting at the table/chair I was at. The space also has a ton of seating inside and out, although the outdoor seating is right against a larger road with a bit of a wind tunnel, so not super pleasant. The latte itself is really more of a sweet dessert, so don't expect any super serious coffee. It was decent, but too foamy and milky for me. The ube flavor wasn't quite as strong as I had hoped. Overall still good though! Not really up my alley of coffee, so likely won't be back, but if you're more into sweeter lattes, definitely give them a try!

I've heard about this place so many times and have wanted to try. First off, my wife and I were greeted by Cherlyn and treated with AMAZING service full of positive energy and a genuine smile. Obviously the vibe is super cool and the place is so clean. Chorizo waffle is boom! Celebration iced coffee is a go to. Cherlyn really represents this place well and shows she's proud to work here. Thank you Cherlyn

I used to go to their SJ location all the time and was happy to see they'd opened one closer to me. But after walking in one day and being completely ignored by all 3 employees, who just stood continuing their conversation while I stood there until I finally just ended up leaving. I haven't been since and have told everyone I know to avoid as well. Great example of how not to treat people and lose previously loyal customers.

I love coming here to hang out! Vibes are awesome and there's usually always somewhere to sit and no line. I always get the flavored lattes less sweet and both the ube and white rose are perfect that way! Also love the waffles here. Would definitely recommend!

7:30am on Thursday and Friday this week were really easy to pop in, order, and be on our way to work quickly. Orders this week were: honey lavender latte, caramel latte, and a cappuccino. The honey lavender had a nice flavor without being overpowering with the lavender. The caramel latte had a nice caramel flavor not just pure sweetness you may get other places. Unlike a certain mobile ordering coffee shop, the espresso wasn't burned in the cappuccino so it was actually able to be enjoyed. Lots of spaces to sit with varied seating. It was quiet given that it was slow so if you were aiming for an early morning coffee date with a friend you could actually have a conversation without having to strain to hear or be heard.

Nirvana soul is one of my favorite coffee shops. They're popular for their craft drinks, specifically the Honey Lavender latte. I dig the Celebration Latte and the Mabuhay ube latte, iced. They're definitely treats, very sweet. Aside from the drinks I like the vibe of Nirvana soul. They're friendly, welcoming, have good music, and decor is vibrant. Parking in front is very limited. Park in the parking structure just around the corner.

Good vibes and good drinks all around at Nirvana! I've heard so many good things about Nirvana and was stoked to finally be able to try it. There are some small tables inside and outside to chill with your coffee or take it to-go. Workers are so friendly and helpful! I also love that they have a kids menu with curated food pairings. I ended up getting my kiddo just a steamer but it always warms my heart to see kids menus in unexpected places. I usually have to awkwardly ask for just steamed milk at most coffee shops. Mabuhay Ube Latte, decaf. I was torn between so many of their options but ultimately decided on the ube latte. It was a perfect bittersweet balance between the ube and coffee; neither overpowered the other and it didn't taste overly sweet like most ube lattes out there. They also have a variety of waffles and pastries that caught my eye but my stomach had to say no at the time. I'd definitely go back to any of Nirvana Soul's locations in a heartbeat!

Pretty good place to study, but can't guarantee there is always a spot to sit. The coffee was really good, and wifi was fast here. Not a lot of great places for a charger tho.

Bomb ass lattes. Superb baristas. Music blastin' (but I just can't quit). Cute and colorful interior and vibes. Finally came in to try their lattes. I couldn't decide between the celebration or the vanilla. Barista: "They're both really good... but ok, do you like funfetti cake? You've got to be in the mood for the celebration latte. It's like drinking a funfetti cake. So if you're not in that mood, the vanilla is really good." She wasn't kidding. I got mine extra sweet with regular milk and it was perfect. Better than voyager or chromatic. It's my new favorite vanilla latte! Love that they have large sizes for their lattes, too. Also appreciate the realness of my barista this morning in explaining the options I was considering. It wasn't "you can't go wrong with anything here." lol Can't wait to come back and try more flavors. PSA: If you're looking for a quiet place to work, this isn't it. If you need to get shit done but need some extra energy and juice to get you through it, then check it out!

Unlike most coffee shops, Nirvana Soul is sourcing some genuinely excellent French pastries. I've gotten hooked on the chocolate croissants, and the plain butter croissants are also good. Make sure you say "yes" when they ask if you want it warmed up. The coffee is also good! Staff is always friendly.

Swung by Nirvana Soul to grab a quick coffee to go while in the San Jose area. it was early afternoon and quite rainy so this was the perfect beverage to warm up and get a small caffeine boost. I've never actually visited the coffee shop before; I'd only sampled them at the coffee festival, so I was excited to actually order a freshly made drink. I opted for the Mabuhay Ube Latte which consists of espresso, steamed milk, ube, and coconut. Okay this coffee is it. Lots of flavors going on, with the coconut standing out the most to me. I love coconut so I didn't mind at all. The sweetness of the ube also balanced with the bitterness of the espresso without being overpowering. While I just went into order quickly to go, the coffee shop was quite busy. The atmosphere is hip, vibrant, and casual with a number of people working on computers or just hanging out. Staff throughout the process of ordering was energetic and friendly.

in love with this coffee shop. everything i've tried so far has been so good. I also really like their rose latte with oat milk. can't wait for more visits and to try more drinks on their menu! the baristas are so friendly and helpful which is wonderful. they also have a couple seats perfect for sitting down and doing some work.

I fell in love with their banana chai latte! If you're a fan of banana milk, you'll definitely enjoy this drink. It has a subtle floral banana flavor, not the artificial banana laffy taffy taste. It's a cozy hot drink that's perfect for cooler weather. The chai could be stronger but it's still enjoyable. Staff are always chill here and it's a great space to get work done or catch up.

(Hugh Jackman voiceover) The vibe is sooo fantastic get in line for coffee cuz' it's gonna be a great day, bub! The wait in line is worth it! I'm super exhausted from a looong work week and really needed a pick me up off the floor coffee. The delish IG model knew exactly what I needed. Yes, she's telepathic! "Jean Grey" got me the Honey Lavender Latté w/ QUAD shots....because 3 aren't enough. SNIKT! Soooo good! She enjoyed the Ube Latte! Iced! (Noli De Castro cameo voiceover) Mabuhay! My gosh! I didn't even mention the pièce de résistance! The WAFFLES! The Waffles are a bridge to the multiverse and rectifies all the timelines! So hearty! Chorizo con Queso! Fantastico! So fluffy! And add the butter and maple syrup! It's like a Mraz song of Pancakes & Butter, but a Chilly Willy culinary masterpiece! Would order everything again! Woohoo!

This is a great and trendy spot for anyone who wants to chill, study, or work at a cafe with music and chatter all around! They were playing throwback RNB when I was there, so definitely a good time for my friends and I to sing along while working :) There's a decent amount of outlets around the seats near the walls and the booths are cushiony! Only downside is that there are a LOT of flies around the cafe and in the bathroom. The drinks I tried: - Mabuhay Ube Latte: I customized this with oat milk and requested less sweetness since I heard this drink was pretty sugary! I thought the drink was good and had a balance between Ube and espresso, but the sweetness from the Ube made the drink feel like a dessert. Not bad, but I'd probably get something different next time! - White Rose Latte: Great flavors going on with the white chocolate, but I couldn't taste any hints of rose in it. - Mushroom Espresso: Not sure what the exact name of this drink was but it had mushroom powder and espresso! This was surprisingly good and earthy! This is a good drink for anyone who likes more of an earthy and nutty flavors.

Came in on a weekend, and there were a few folks in the store, but it wasn't too packed. From the get-go service was amazing. Staff was very warm and friendly and offered up recommendations. The decor was vibrant and definitely set a nice mood for the café. We ordered a few drinks and some bites to eat (I am still thinking about how buttery and delicious the quiche was). My husband got the savory waffle, and really enjoyed it. He also had the Ube latte, which he said was pretty good. I got one with hazelnut, and it was delicious. I would definitely come back, as we are often in the area, and I'm looking forward to ordering that quiche again. :)

Cute coffee shop! Detailed breakdown below: **Service, 5/5** Very friendly and efficient staff. **Decor & cleanliness, 5/5** Super cute interior, but not as much room inside as the DTSJ location. **Price & taste, 5/5** I got a chorizo queso waffle which was solid -- warm and fluffy with crisp edges -- and definitely filled me up for lunch. **Other notes** Parking is super easy; parallel park on the street or use the garage.

Love the atmosphere at Nirvana Soul. Service is always great and drinks are good. Parking here may be a little difficult because the plaza is always busy. Mabuhay Ube Latte was good, but the coffee definitely overpowers the ube. White rose latte was good and light. Definitely would get again.

This review is long overdue. I have been visiting this cafe regularly ever since it opened. Nirvana Soul is owned by 2 sisters. The baristas are super friendly, the caffeine drinks are amazing, the space is beautiful. Nice, casual spot to hang out, get work done, read a book. Parking is always easy to find. Lovers Quarrel and Mahabuey Latte are my all time favorites. Of course their other specialty lattes are great.

We came in right before they closed and grabbed a couple of coffee's to go. We ordered the Hazelnut & White Rose latte. The service was great as our barista greeted us and asked if we had any questions about the menu. The hazelnut has a distinct flavor that pairs up nicely with the chocolate. It was decent, but I would probably try something different next time. I think the hazelnut was a bit too strong and overpowered the drink for my preference.

Nirvana Soul has the best coffees and best customer service! I'm so happy they opened a second location. I love supporting this business, it is black female owned! I love the vibes here and it's always so vibrant with positive energy all around. Nirvana Soul is the only exception I will have coffee, I'm more of a tea girly. I was able to put a couple items on hold over the phone, and the employee Emily was so helpful with some holiday recommendations. Upon arrival I was greeted by the store manager J and I think the cashier was Josephine (I hope I spelled that right). I ended up going with her suggestion of the holiday box, where you get three 8 oz holiday editions with a sticker pack for $69.99. The store manager was very generous and gave me a drink on the house! I ordered a decaf peppermint white mocha w/ macadamia milk on ice. Sooo good!! When I'm in the area, I do want to try one of their tea options!

Wanted to study for a bit, so I was looking for a cafe with seats, a comfortable setting and some good coffee. I've been to their downtown location, which is cute but I try to avoid downtown because of parking and its less safe. I love the cupertino location. It's smaller but super cozy and clean. Also, super easy to find parking right outside or in their parking lot. I ended up getting the lavender latte in a glass cup and spent a few hours there studying while listening to 90's r&b.

Had this in my drafts for a while, initially with 5 stars but bringing it down to 3. I first came during COVID when there was only one location open. I remember I got the hazelnut mocha and a giant cookie and it was so delicious and I was so happy. The ambiance is cute and typical cafe vibes which I love--different kinds of seating available (tables, picnic table, outdoor seating, bar seating along the rail up in the loft area, love seats, etc. They sell merch and coffee paraphernalia. I've returned recently and been to their other locations but the coffee just doesn't hit, especially for the price. It tastes milkier (less coffee taste) and the flavors taste very artificial--doesn't blend in well with the coffee and milk. Kind of like Starbucks' lavender coffee (artificial versus natural/floral). Service is always superb though! Baristas are always kind and drinks are made quickly.

Courteous. Nondairy milk options include macadamia milk. Ambience is nice. Electric vehicle charging nearby.

Nirvana has been on my list of coffee shops to check out and so happy I did. It was a great spot to work on my laptop and meet the wonderful staff. Even though I ended up getting a juice from Supreme Super Food I enjoyed the experience and will be back despite the drive. Also I LOVED the kid pairing. I never know what to get my kids when I go to coffee shops but these took the effort out of thinking! If only I brought my kids with me this time lol

Wanted to try this place out since I love discovering different coffee spots. The ambiance inside wasn't as peaceful as I expected, the music was too loud and forced me to raise my voice just to talk to my friend in front of me. The service seemed hectic, I was in the middle of ordering when the cashier literally just turned around, took food out of the oven, went to the back fridge and whatnot without even excusing herself while she was typing in my order. Seemed very unprofessional on her part. They also forgot about my egg bites, so we had to wait longer after reminding them that we were still waiting on them. The coffee wasn't too bad. The Mabuhay Ube Latte barely tasted anything like ube and was more coconutty instead. However, the breakfast sandwich was NOT worth $12.

Great atmosphere and coffee is amazing!!! I recommend the Golden child! Will be supporting this business for years to come!

I was going to my niece dance lessons and this coffee shop was located in the same direction. I have been to their downtown location before, so I look forward to trying their coffee again. Hazelnut Mocha: This was an absolutely delicious to drink. The coffee flavor was not overpowering to me and the hazelnut and chocolate profiles melded well together. I changed to macadamia nut milk as my choice and it was a great change. I loved everything about this drink and the staff were friendly to me the entire time. Overall I can see myself coming here again.

I just stopped in for the first time--how did I miss this place???? 5 stars all the way around! I could not have received a warmer welcome, really, what a happy crew and a most excellent start to my day. I tried Nirvana's Cold Brew, and it is the BOMB. Dark chocolate notes and high octane--better than Stsrbuck's UNCUT cold brew. Highly recommend

part of main street cupertino located in the back along vallco parkway...passing small outdoor seating area to enter...order counter with menu behind the wall...they do have a variety of interesting sounding specialty drinks and teas....waffles and small bites...standard contemporary interiors with varying seating options...taking a honey lavender latte $6.75...surcharge of $0.50 for oat milk substitute...add tax and tip to make it about $9 total for one coffee drink...price is steep, but coffee was fine...

First time at this location and just like the 1st street one it's such a vibe and Makia was so fun to chat with! Came here to do some work and get coffee! Love it! Check out her pressed juice too!!

Love the vibe, the drinks, the food, and definitely the service. Everyone was so nice! I ordered a fall special, sweet potato pie latte and it did not disappoint! Fall in a cup.

was in the area running an errand and decided to treat myself-- off to Nirvana Soul Coffee I went. I've never been there, but the reviews on Yelp were reassuring, so I went with it. The baristas were all so friendly and I picked up an ube latte. I assumed it would leave a disgusting after taste in my mouth (because of what I paid for it!) but was pleasantly surprised! It was DELICIOUS. Unlike other places with ube lattes, there is actually espresso in it! The ube flavor is noticeable, but not overpowering and artificial. I'm in love. Needless to say, I'll be back when I'm in the area :)

Tried the Ube latte both as hot and a cold drink; Much better cold, even on a cold wintry day. Service was courteous and prompt. Like most trendy establishments these days, the decor was instagramable.
