Academic Coffee

Great corner for coffee, super convenient for cyclists, with lots of bike parking. I had a drip coffee, El Salvador, roasted by Temple in Sacramento. Simple menu with the famous Mochi muffin. I'm looking forward to this being an anchor location for south #DTSJ.

Staff and owner are great. This place is becoming an important asset for San Jose. Perhaps the Best Coffee and pastries in Town (next to Forager and Chromatic Coffee) They know their craft and they utilize the temple coffee beans - which are just right (from sacramento)

I used to love the cold brew, drip, and Americanos at this place. Service is always great. The three stars is partly because they are still trapped in the Corona mindset- no indoor seating, no bathroom, plexiglass all over, warning signs on the door. The rest of the reason is that the coffee quality isn't quite what it was. It's still good - and it's a good place to go on this neighborhood - but it lost its edge and hasn't progressed. They had single origin espresso listed on the menu but didn't have any to offer. Also, the pastries ran out by 10:30 and they only had one savory option, even if in stock. The vegan muffin was amazing though. I like to support all coffee shops and don't like giving a negative review, so this is hopefully feedback for the shop to get focused on coffee quality as we all move on.

My favorite coffee shop in the Bay Area. Beautiful coffee & super lovely humans work here. Lots of care goes into the coffee sourcing and accoutrements. To stay coffee is served in local Habibi ceramics and hasami Japanese porcelain. Doesn’t get much better than this.

Yummmm. Their glazed donut tasted like air. I look forward to going back and tasting some of their eclectic lattes.

I always prefer a small local coffee shop with personal touch -- This is a good example :) Loved your coffee

Staff is super good :)

Lovely little coffee shop that has snug seating as well as a patio. The vibe in the shop is airy and fresh with big windows and plenty of sunlight. Sinful coffee preparations as well as exciting sweet treats makes it a favorite hangout for the young and energetic.

Great business. You have to try the pandan 10/10! Great spot to chill and do work on a Sunday as well. Only downside would be the street people. It's downtown San Jose and anywhere you go down here you have to deal with them. But the staff is great and respectful and can help out with any issues.

I used to live nearby few years ago and always came to this place. Today I returned back and enjoyed really the best matcha in Bay Area. Basically, I can drink it only in BB and Linea in SF, but this one was even better. Already planning some "business" trips to SJ to drink it over and over again!

Love this place, the plants are such a vibe!! <3 Definitely try their hot vanilla latte, I love it !! :)
