Peet's Coffee

Sweetest staff! I love getting the black tie! A must stop in Morgan Hill!

The coffee and food are very good. The day I visited, they were fairly busy and after placing my order, waited quite some time before receiving my breakfast item which came at a different time than the pastry that I also ordered. This was confusing given the amount of people waiting for there order and because of how difficult it was to hear my name being called due to the noise level.
Like I mentioned, the coffee is delicious and so we're the food items that I ordered.

Very clean establishment. The cashier went above and beyond. Plus the coffee was excellent as always. Better than Starbucks IMHO

Loved burista there, he brewed dark roast for me at 3 PM. Other stores would just say no after 11 am.

First time here and first time at a Peet's Coffee in general.

Full disclosure: I used to work at a law firm that got Peet's coffee by the truckload. (A bit of an exaggeration, yes, but not by much.) Every day, I'd come to work, and the place just smelled as if it were a coffeehouse! Of course, lawyers are famous for working through the night and needing coffee on IV drips to get through late-night powwows. And Peet's reigned at my law firm. But the coffee always smelled so STRONG that I never dared try it. (I'm a coffee weakling. I admit it! I do decaf and like it sweet and light--NOT dark, strong, and thick as petrol!)

However, I was there to meet a young lady whom I was asking to do the cover art for my upcoming novel. She's in high school and not a professional, but she is a TRULY talented artist. I love to meet people who have talent and passion and see if there's any way I can get them in the spotlight with/for their talent. And my book cover, I'd hope, would be a great way to showcase her talent. (And, yes, I intend to pay her. So this would be her first professional gig, and I can say one day, "Well, you know, of course, that I was her first paying client!" (I'm actually not certain she intends to go into art as a career or just keep it her hobby.)) And she (thankfully) agreed to do the job! Yay!

Anyhow, she lives in a different city, so Peet's was her choice for a meeting place that was centrally located between us. I got there early and ordered the hibiscus tea (served cold)! Yum! I LOVE hibiscus tea! And this had a WONDERFUL flavor. Very refreshing.

The people working at Peet's were friendly and QUICK! My tea was ready before I'd returned my wallet to my purse!

Anyhow, now that I know Peet's has hibiscus tea, I'll be back. And MAYBE one day I'll work up the courage to try their coffee. Maybe if professional baristas make it (and not a group of lawyers), it'll be better. Anyhow, I can't stand Starbucks coffee, so Peet's would have a loyal customer in me if I did like their coffee or their hot chocolate. (I love hot chocolate, but Starbucks even makes AWFUL hot chocolate, so I stopped going there because I never found anything I could drink and enjoy)! Next time I go in cooler weather, I'll try Peet's hot chocolate and see if I like it. (And hopefully I'll remember to post an update!)

5/11/22--Yesterday I was at my chiropractor and had some time before my next appointment, so I decided, since it was cold, I'd finally try out Peet's hot chocolate. And, hallelujah, it tasted like hot chocolate! It wasn't the greatest hot chocolate I've ever had, but it SOOO much better than the swill passed off as hot chocolate at Starbucks. I mean, HOW do you get hot chocolate wrong? I don't know, but Starbucks does, and I told the batista at Peet's that and made his day. He showed his appreciation in heartfelt laughter at my unexpected comment. So, yes, I can recommend Peet's hot chocolate.

Dominic was very friendly and had a great sense of humor! Glad I got to try Pete’s coffee for the first time and have such a great experience!

We had a very good experience here. We were also impressed with how the carrier handled a difficult customer ahead of us.

We enjoyed the friendliness of the staff as much as the coffee. Very good!

The chocolate croissant is small compared to what they used to be. The brewery croissant was dry.

Tried something different today that wasn't a winner. That's okay that's what exploring is about. The service continues to degrade. The baristas seem to be on some kind of control mission rather than providing service. I've noticed this with many other people and experienced it myself. I've exhausted my funds reserved on the pizza count and will discontinue attending. There's so much stress in the world today you don't need to have it when you want a cup of coffee :-)
