This is definitely a central meeting place for Willow Glen. The coffee is good, service is great, but the line to get your caffeine fix in the morning can take long (or maybe it's my perceptional thing until I get my morning jolt).

It's a little difficult to find a place to sit outside when the weather is nice - especially on the weekends.

Good, strong lattes, but can be inconsistent on quality.  I think their iced ones are better than hot. Staff is friendly and service is quick.

I said, make it warm, and yet I still burned the whole top of my tongue. :( Plus, the chai could have been a whole lot stronger.

Nice froth though, and friendly service.
As a non-coffee drinker, I prefer Starbuck's to Pete's.

Great place to hang out with friends after a weekend run.  The place doesn't have loud, pounding music.  I'm actually able to hear what my friends are saying.  Staff is great and friendly.  They get the orders right!  It can get a bit crowded but the atmosphere is pretty laid back.  Both the coffee and tea are de-lish!  Not too hot, and tasty!  Parking lot is right around the corner as well.

My shirt smells so bitter right now. I sat in peet's grading some papers today :D I agree with "Gina C.": I LOVE a good strong cup of coffee. There was a sample of their Anniversary Blend in a cute french press, and I helped myself to two cups + free pieces of pumpkin bread. Their drip coffee was strong- just the way I like it!

although the company has changed DRASTICALLY over the years and not for the better, they now offer flavor syrups and their employee treatment has gone downhill. :-(  BUT, the coffee is still the same- dark, rich, fresh and fantastic!

i love this location, as the staff is incredibly friendly and always on the ball.  the best part of my morning routine!

Good beans ground to order, but as much as I try, I'm not keen on their beverages.

They always seem to have a funky taint to them.

I LOVE a good strong cup of coffee.  Peet's has the best.  Their coffee is just as delicious when I grind and brew myself.  The also have a  fabulous tea selection.  Many different kinds from all over the world.  

The only reason I didn't give five stars, is because I have received poor service in the past.  I find that the Willow Glen location is the friendliest, though.

After school, a good gingerbread latte or iced chai latte is always good. In "downtown Willow Glen" is Peet's Coffee & Tea, normally seen as that other coffee shop, with Starbucks and Willow Glen Roasting Co. being down the street. My family and I also get our coffee grounds from here as well. Their Holiday Blends are always magnificent, but for something year around, Arabian Mocha-Java is the way to go.
