ZombieRunner Coffee

New location in Mountain View! Glad to see them finally open!

The baristas are amazing and helpful. Very friendly service. Can’t wait to keep coming back to enjoy a cup of coffee or two from them.

Great coffee and friendly staff.

The only place in the area where you can enjoy mocha and actually taste the coffee and dark chocolate. They care about the quality and taste adding minimum amount of sugar to any beverage or food items.
Neat little place with some vegan and gluten-free treats :)

Wonderful service and fantastic product. They take pride in what they make. Their in house cold brew is rich, bold and refreshing! And they use quality products. The owner was warm, friendly and super helpful. Their other staff we’ve interacted with was incredibly sweet and kind. We’ve never had a bad experience at either location - Palo Alto or Mountain View. Keep up the great work!!

Also, any dummies giving a very undeserving one star and complaining about “No seating and a very small menu. Not enough choices for our Coffee Club” is laughable. Go sit your ample bottom at a mega chain coffee store where quantity overrides quality - they’re completely missing the point of the ZR business model and mission statement.

I am not a coffee connoisseur though I do not like Starbucks. This coffee was actually quite good. Strong and hot. Not burnt or bitter.

I came here the first time because the name caught my attention. I'm not too proud to admit that. I will return for the Golden Zombie! Really, really good.

Coffee was okay, far better than Charbucks, but not the best in Mountain View (Red Rock).

The barista was kind of smug, and would not fill a reusable travel mug. I get the caution around COVID, but if the owners pay attention, use a reusable mug so as not to waste more paper cups.

I've been a loyal customer of ZombieRunner in Palo Alto, and while they are readying their new location in Palo Alto (across the street from the original store) I am happily ordering my beans online and driving to Mountain View to support their new location in Mountain View. They have a wide variety of carefully selected beans from all over the world, and if you buy the beans, you can usually get beans roasted within the last few days. Their espresso drinks are ijust superb. I always bring my out-of-town visitors to Zombie to prove the superiority of their drinks and their beans, and they are always amazed - there is just no comparison to other coffee places (you'll never go to Starbucks again!). You can also mail order your beans. I highly recommend ZombieRunner!

Tasty and creative drinks, mainly cold brew and espresso!! I like the nitro cold brew - pretty strong, so you might want to get the "nitro cream" which has half and half, but I didn't want to pay the extra dollar.

They also sell cold brew concentrate, coffee beans, and fancy tasty chocolate bars. The chocolates from Dandelion are local to the Bay Area (San Francisco) and make a great gift. I'm really happy to find them here - I haven't found them anywhere besides the Dandelion store in SF, and ZombieRunner.

The people working here and at the California Ave location are very friendly and helpful too!

I do wish the location was a bit easier to get to/park at, or located closer to other things (like the one on Cal Ave). Maybe for the third location 😊

OMG I just found this coffee place on California Street in Palo Alto and a friend told me they were in Mt View RIGHT NEAR ME in Los Altos!
Folks, this is the richest coffee ever and I love coffee. My husband is a Peet’s man and thot this fuller bodied, richer and smooth!
It’s a must try. Never had a coffee so wonderful.
It’s unfortunate they open at 9- will probably miss the going-to-work group.
You’ll never regret your stop at this coffee shop!
( and I k ie no one in this business)😌

This is THE BEST coffee!! I buy their beans and chai tea for myself and as gifts for friends, who tell me things like, “This is the best coffee I’ve ever had!” (I have had three friends tell me that.) My brother-in-law had a gourmet Italian restaurant which served the best Italian espresso. Now he only drinks Zombie Runner’s Italian espresso because it is so outstanding. I love their Night if the Living Blend beans and their lattes with oat milk and their Golden Zombie which is a cold brew coffee with oat milk and a special zombie turmeric spice blend. The owners are runners and know how to reduce inflammation. Taking a tip from them about using turmeric to reduce inflammation, I am drinking their chai spiced tea every day and add a little turmeric to each cup - after two weeks of this my long-term, chronic foot pain is so much better that I can go hour-long walks again! What a big improvement to my life! Thank you Zombie Runner for the excellent coffee, tea, granola and music too!
