    Only ordered a drink here, so I can only review that. Small shop with some sandwiches, drinks, and pastries. Tucked away within a complex and a bit difficult to find. One table and a bar counter to sit looks perfect for lunch. This place also has WiFi if you need to do a little work. Off to drink review! 3.6/5 - Dirty Matcha - Tasted more sweet and milk than any expresso. Was hoping for a bit more coffee flavor and caffeine. Not sure how much is put in. Doesn't have the multi section aesthetic either as they mix it for you already so I can't figure out milk to coffee ratio. If you are more into sweet things this might be for you.

    La Matche Cafe is another hidden gem as it is relatively hard to notice when passing by as it is accross the street from Burlingame Plaza and it is located at the Peninsula Life Science Center on the lobby floor. I had a great experience coming here and the owner and the team are super friendly. They opened before the pandemic and have been serving workers nearby for years. The inside is small, but it's very cozy and has some seating available. Their matcha lattes and sandwiches were really good. They pride themselves on using fresh ingredients/fruit and not using powder. The Iced Matcha Latte ($6) was something I had to try especially when it is part of their name, but it did not dissapoint. This is definitely better matcha than any other shop in the area. It had just the right amount of sweetness and you can taste the matcha flavor. I had to pace myself and not drink it too fast because it was so good. I got mine with Oatmilk and you can also add lychee or boba as well. I got to try the Turkey Pesto Sandwich ($11.49) and Ultimate Club Sandwich ($12.49). Both were great sandwiches although I give the edge to the Turkey Pesto because I love pesto and all the ingredients were so fresh. If you are in Millbrae or Burlingame then I recommend coming here for a drink or sandwiches/salads. Parking can be a little challenging, but I think it is worth the trip here regardless.

    I work upstairs and this cafe has everything you could possibly want and need. Breakfast foods, coffee, boba, sandwiches, and desserts. Service is always quick and the ladies who work there are extremely nice. The mochi muffins are AMAZING. The chicken pesto is my favorite. You can't go wrong with any of the smoothies, boba, or coffee. Boba is a bit on the sweet side so I always ask for less sugar and they're able to accommodate me. So happy to have them in the building!

    La Matcha is a hidden gem! I did not find out about them until this year but since then, I've become a regular for their drinks and sandwiches. First off, the service is great. The ladies that run the place are very accommodating and friendly. Sometimes, there's a big rush around lunch so they will tell you an approximate time for when your order is ready. Second, I think any drink that they make is great. I usually get a strawberry banana smoothie (they even do less sugar) or an iced mocha but their passion fruit mixed tea is also delicious. Lastly, their sandwiches are well balanced and hit the spot. Specifically, I like to get the Ultimate Club with extra meat. If you have enough room, I highly recommend the mochi muffins for dessert There isn't a lot of seating but it is what you'd expect for a cafe. If you are craving a nice sandwich or a caffeine boost, give La Matcha a shot!
