Love the ROSE LATTE, got it with almond milk #vegan and so creamy and not overly sweet. The vibes are amazing outside, as many people mentioned, the trickling water fall and greenery is perfect for study/work. The baristas were so very kind. AND they have mason jars for dine in, love that. #saynotoplastic will definitely be back!!

Friends Coffee & Tea is a hidden gem! The owner and staff are so nice, friendly, and thoughtful. Friends Coffee & Tea helps train individuals with disabilities and provide employment. This is an amazing step to helping those who dont always have the same job opportunities.The rose latte was very strong, not sweet at all. The flowery taste was prominent. The drink itself is really pretty and topped off with honey.The interior is clean and spacious. Prices are reasonable. Friends Coffee & Tea sells ceramic cups, clay pots, and other goodies from local vendors.Support your local small businesses and enjoy some awesome coffee/tea. Its a great quiet, study spot as well.

Quaint little coffee and tea shop with small bites/pastries. The rose cafe latte is very good, fairly strong rose flavor which I enjoy. Its ran for individuals with special needs to learn work skills, so dont be impatient when you come here!

Great variety of coffee and pastry. Great display of pottery and gift ideas with excellent quality. Spending time here sipping coffee and enjoy browsing the display is very soothing. Very friendly staff. Proceeds help with special needs persons.

Love the specialty drinks. They arent the everyday tea and coffee drinks. The Grapefruit Honey Tea is delicious and refreshing. Tha Earl Grey Milk Tea is good hot or iced. Everyone is very friendly and helpful. I love learning about the various treats they have. The rose cookies are delicate and tasty. The shop is filled with wonderful handmade items: soaps, coffee cups, cards, paintings and handmade Lego candy dispenser. So glad to have discovered this gem.

I loved the service and the food at Friends Coffee & Tea. They have a wonderful mission and beautiful artwork and pottery sold in store as well. If you know any events or companies that can feature or even help promote/sell their cards/pottery/paintings, please approach them! I got myself a milk tea there. It was lovely!

This is your best neighborhood coffee shop in all of San Jose, and not only does it serves delicious and wonderful different flavors, but also Endeavors to bless the community and give back. It is a beautiful place.

Hibiscus Honey Tea is fantastic, and the pastries are much better than at the usual coffee&tea chains, even if it takes them a long time to be prepared. But what makes this really special is that youll be supporting Children with Special Needs who will be learning to work as baristas.
