Best cafe in Stanford, California (CA) 2024

Pretty balanced comfort food. You can eat in front of a tv connected live to MIT 's CSAIL ~Jose

The staff at this Starbucks failed to make my order and when I approached them they were too busy to even sort it out. They kept me waiting without addressing the issue. When I approached them about it again after waiting and waiting, they just lied about it and said they were busy doing other orders and someone else must have taken my order which was untrue as I was waiting next to where orders were being dispensed. The lady in charge was so rude and non apologetic. Very abrupt and shouldn’t really be working in hospitality as she didn’t care about me or my order. I ended up getting a refund after they found my order in the register after 40mins. I have never experienced such bad customer service. Really appalling attitude by staff and management! I definitely wouldn’t return to this cafe. Students and staff at Stanford University deserve better really! ~Jimbo

This is below my office, so the location is a perk. They have a variety of gluten free options, which is huge for me. It was busy, either as a function of location or good food. I wasn’t a huge fan of my vegan arepa, but then again I may have gotten unlucky, or they’re more difficult to make vegan, who knows. My Vietnamese coffee was very good, and I trust they do other great types of lattes. I want to like this place, so I’ll try it again. They have a funky ordering system during covid where you can’t use the register, and must order on an app/online. Pro for safety, con for your first time ordering. ~M

Very good had a bowl of 🍜 pho. Was tasty. I wasn't planning to buy any food today, packed a lunch. There are two all gender bathrooms. There is an added to your pho bar $0.62 an ounce. Soup came fast, Wasn't crowded yet. I got there a little after 11. Getting crowded now. All in all a good experience a little over eight bucks out the door. ~Duncan
