I have been going to AJ's for about 12 years. Today I ordered a large smoothie and asked if I could have a second cup because I have a 4 and 2 year old and they don't both need a small 16 oz smoothie each. I was told they don't do that here. I have always had a great experience with the young women that work here and today was my first bad one. It was the owner AJ that helped me. I over heard him talking to one of the girls inside about how he was an accounting major. I prefer to support small business owners but not when they manipulate you into buying two small smoothies so they can make more money. My kids didn't even drink their smoothies. Plus he charged me $1 per smoothie for whipped cream. They have officially lost my business, my husband came here regularly as well, he said he will never again. He told me I should have cancelled my order and left. I wasn't only ordering smoothies. I also ordered two large specialty coffees. My uncle frequented AJs as well, he said he will no longer go after I told him the story of today. I will be telling everyone I know this story. It's sad when a business owner vs his employee are the reason you won't support a place. In these hard times, a business owner should be going above and beyond, not being greedy. I would've even paid for the second cup, which he would've charged me $5 for probably based on his current up-charging and price gouging. By the way, two smoothies for my 4 and 2 year old cost me $14.50!!! I wish I had gone to McDonald's where the smoothies are made with more fruit base and my kids actually like them. They are willing to give me a second cup always. If you like giving away your money to a greedy owner then AJ's is your place!I would like to point out that I was not offered a second cup. I asked exactly for a large with two cups and he replied "we don't do that here. We have smaller sizers." Now if I had the option of being handed a second cup, why would he not offer this option? I think it is clear why. I paid $14.50 for two small smoothies and whipped cream was $1 upcharge, he never told me this. He just asked if I wanted whipped cream and I said yes. So each small smoothie was $7.25!

A lot of my friends have been to AJ's coffee and recommended to me as they liked their drinks. I really do like that they have a drive thru as I get lazy at times getting out of my car First glance, they do have a lot of options but not so much to overwhelm you! They do make everything organized on the menu so it's easy to order.The staff were kind & quick w/ their service so I really liked that. The order taker asked me multiple questions regarding my order to ensure that I got my order the way I want which I'm very appreciative of. I ordered their medium matcha latte w/oatmilk! It wasn't bad however next time I'll order extra matcha as it was too milky in my opinion. You do taste the matcha but me personally, I like extra :) As this is close by, this is another spot for me to check out as it's so convenient and near-by :)

I discovered this coffee shop in Dublin originally, but the Hayward location is more convenient. I love how the coffee shop is drive thru only. I am a lazy girl who doesn't want to get out of her car for a matcha. On the menu it does not say matcha latte, but when asked they do make it. I ordered a small matcha latte w/oat milk extra hot. I love getting extra hot since by the time I start to drink it, it is the right temperature. The lady asked me if it was hot enough which I appreciated. While taking my order she asked if I wanted an espresso shot added, I declined but appreciated being asked. If you pay using Apple Pay they charge a processing fee of 35 cents. I thought there was a law that prevents this? I'm unsure. Overall, their matcha & service is 10/10, def coming back again.

I recently discovered AJ's drive-thru spot in Hayward and it has quickly become my go-to spot for a caffeine fix. This charming drive-through offers an impressive variety of drinks, with the highlight being their pumpkin spice latte, available all year round! It's a treat for pumpkin spice lovers who can't wait for the fall season.The menu is extensive, catering to all tastes with a range of coffee, tea, and specialty drinks. Despite the wide selection, the prices remain reasonable, making it easy to enjoy your favorite beverage without feeling guilty about the cost. Every cup I've had has been consistently delicious, showcasing their dedication to quality ingredients and expert preparation.What truly sets this coffee drive-thru spot is the staff. They are incredibly quick, ensuring you're in and out in no time, even during the busiest hours. Beyond their efficiency, they are always super friendly and welcoming, making each visit a pleasant experience. Their cheerful demeanor adds a personal touch that you don't often find at other coffee.Highly recommend!

Very good service, nice and quick. Like the area it is in. Very claiming. Food was decent. Not bad for a drive thru only coffee shop. Glad to support a local shop.

If you're looking for a quick coffee place to make your morning a little better, this is the place for you! I have always supported small businesses during these times but especially Aj's Coffee. And when I say "small" business, I mean..."small"! This place is a cute little drive thru shop in the parking lot of a 7/11. This alone has always caught my attention and made me curious about what kind of coffee they have to offer! I live pretty close to this area and will always pass by so when I finally decided to try it out, it has easily become one of my favorite little coffee spots! Their menu includes flavors like Red Velvet, Oreo, Matcha, their famous "Mad Ajs" and more! Today, I got the Iced Snowy Mocha Latte which is basically their take on a White Mocha and its really good. You can always adjust your coffee to your liking too as I asked for it with Oatmilk and added Caramel drizzle. I got a medium and this coffee takes me a while to drink (meaning it lasts me a long time) which I like so that I can happily drink it throughout the day! A medium is basically a large here compared to other places so keep that in mind!!! My cousin got the Iced Red Velvet Latte (also size medium) and our total came out to $13.75, not too bad imo for pretty big coffees. I really love this place because of how convenient it is, how quick they are, and how much variety they have on their menu. I want to try out so many things they have because their flavors are super eye catching. Their staff is always super sweet too. Definitely a must to stop by here if youre in the area!!!

The coffee drinks and pastry's were fire!!!! And the young lady that was there did an amazing job with our drinks and her customer service, overall we had a great experience here! Would recommend this drive thru spot. This young lady deserves a raise handling that long line all by herself!!!!
