    I usually get Red velvet latte or the Ethiopia coffee. If you want some Humphry Slocombe ice cream in South Bay then this is the place to go. Okay wifi speed. Very talented and friendly baristas.

    Ask for the Mocha "Fouzi Style". It's way better than the standard Mocha since the chocolate is steamed with the milk so its smooth and blended. In a regular Mocha it's mixed in with the espresso.

    Terrific, artfully-made lattes. They use quality beans from Sightglass Coffee. They also import ice cream from Humphry Slocombe: no need to drive all the way up to SF!

    Humphrey slocomb, red velvet latte, chipotle chicken panini. I think I'm in heaven. All their coffees are great! I'd suggest lattes for those who don't like black coffee

    Good place to get coffee in Cupertino. They have pourovers for three different types of beans. The place is cozy with indoor and outdoor seating.

    Try their London Fog, Karl the Fog. It’s great! Hope it stays. One of the best matcha latte in the South Bat as well.

    They have Humphry Slocombe Ice Cream, making this the only place I've seen with it in the South Bay. Get the Secret Breakfast (ice cream + bourbon + corn flakes? Yes please)!

    Now to use Internet you need to ask them for a ticket with access code. This is inconvenient, especially from mobile phone which remembers network and connects automatically next time you are here.

    Excellent coffee shop in a nice area of Cupertino. They can make a Flat White, even though it's not on the menu.

    Try the Affogato W/Humphry Slocomb Ice Cream - What's better than @Sightglass espresso and @HumphrySlocombe ice cream? #Affogato made with both, at @BitterPlusSweet in Cupertino!

    Bit of a weird little place. The tortes were like Australian lamingtons - that is to say, delicious.

    Their tea is quite tasty and they'll make any of them as an iced tea if you ask for it.

    Pretty underwhelming. I was surprised at the lack of presentation and food was pretty bland. Look at this picture. Does this look appetizing? It's also a mini English muffin. Not even full sized.

    Mocha with soy milk is great. It has 53% cacao so it's not sugary sweet like the coffee chains.
