It’s a great experience! I loved it, it’s so easy, quick and the coffee is delicious!
Marvelous coffee, impressive technology, great promotion deals. Come over and try!!
Very unique place where coffee is served by a bot. You'll have to place the order from a kiosk in the coffee shop. Once you've placed the order, the bot starts making your coffee in the order it's placed. Once it's ready, you'll receive a pickup code which you'll input in another kiosk in front of the bot and it lowers the coffee for you through a pickup window. The experience by itself was very exciting and a must try. We had cap and chai latte and both were equally good. Would definitely visit when I'm back in the city
Cute gimmick. Good coffee at a reasonable price. Fun to watch the robot.
Be prepared to wait as much as a minute after you see the robot make your coffee before you get the pick up code. It can take that long for YOUR wireless provider to get the text to you.
Totally surprised with the quality of coffee this machine produced! Temperature and flavor are both on point. I highly recommend, not even for the novelty, this is just good coffee delivered fast. No absurd wait times. They even have an app you can order ahead.
Order from the kiosk and the robotic machine makes the ice mocha. Less than 2 mins. Fast and taste great! I will definitely try their other drinks next time like the matcha tea
Great coffee by a Robot Barista. You order your coffee through a tablet, then wait and watch the Robot barista make it. There’s a person in the coffee shop to help you with Q&A . Price was reasonable $4 for a small drop coffee. Totally diff experience down in San Fran.
Cool place - the hot chocolate is the best I’ve tasted here in San Francisco. The place was a bit hard to find, but it is inside the mall on the ground floor. Enter from the door closest to the park. Also, if you download their app you’ll get a free drink.
A good cup of coffee with a fun display of robotics.
I had a promo code and decided to try a cup on my way to work. Came in early today before the Metreon was even open and found them finishing up tuning the Intelligentsia coffee with one of the roasters. The interface was very simple and my latte was ready quickly. It was cute to watch the robotic arm making the coffee while I waited. By the end I had a latte that was just as good as any I've had in the city.
I'd be curious what's going on in the machine that actually dispenses the coffee and milk. Is the same sort of attention to detail (ground size, water temp and pressure, and milk steaming) going into it as when its made by hand? It'd be cool if some of those mechanics were see through to make the process even more transparent (sorry for the pun). Either way, it was a solid latte for way less than I can get at a regular cafe with a pretty high tech gimmick. I'll certainly be back.
This is a really fun experience! I love this cute little robot!!
The coffee is pretty decent - it's not the best in SF but it IS made by a robot which is pretty novel.
There is also a SECRET KIDS MENU - if you select no coffee beans, then you can get a hot chocolate or fluffy flavoured with syrups.
It's really cool to pre-order the coffee as you're walking there (they have an app and are offering $10 free credit on their website at the moment) and then see it waiting for you! The machine then picks it up and WAVES AT YOU!!
At the moment you can only pre-order one coffee at a time, but they said they are working on multiple orders.
The employees were really nice too - they went out of our way to ask us how their experience was and shared in our robot joy.
I was really surprised that a robot could make such a good coffee! No seriously... it was really good. And entertaining too. Their story is pretty cool is as well. They had coffee connoisseurs, who really care about their art, program the robot so that you get exactly what you are expecting... perfect roasted beans and your coffee served at just the right temperature.
Coffee: solid. It was good coffee, nothing mind blowing. You get to choose your own beans!
Entertainment: the robot arm only does the serving and setting up, the rest is an automated machine that pumps out espresso and milk. I wish it did more but it was cool to see regardless.
Service: great! You order from an iPad, get notified when the coffee is ready, and the wait wasn't bad.
Overall, I would get this coffee again if I'm at the metreon but I wouldn't go out of my way to come here.
