Good Thing

I've been dying to visit Good Thing for months and I finally made my way out to Burlingame for a cafe date. It was a Friday afternoon and we were able to snag a spot at one of the 2 tables at the cafe. The cafe isn't too big but it didn't feel cramped at all. They have free wifi and a few outlets, so we worked here for 2 hours.I was absolutely obsessed with how they decorated the place. The lanterns, mirrors, and art were very trendy. They're known for their Pistachio Einspanner latte but they ran out of pistachio for the day. We were a bit bummed but the worker said they have a Black Sesame Einspanner for the day. I love black sesame and this was one of the best black sesame drinks I've never had! It was so nutty, creamy and sweet! Don't forget to mix the drink throughly before drinking. Please add this as a permanent drink on the menu!I can't wait to come back to try their Pistachio Einspanner latte!

The urban angel is a must try! A little pricey but it's a nice splurge to have once in awhile It may be a bit sweet to some but I enjoyed it. I also like the texture of the pistachios on top. The shop is a bit small but there is a small waiting area in the back as well.

Just like how everyone has their preferences in alcoholic drinks, it's the same with coffee. I found the coffee they to be sour, as in its under roasted and possibly on the greener side (which is considered under roasted by most roaster). Some people like this, but many doesn't. Ive tried their latte and regular brew and found them both to be similar in taste, super acidic and not flavorful. As for the decor of the coffee shop, it was modernized with white walls, simple colors of soft pastels for decor and what seems like their signiture blue. However, the bubble font and blue they use in their logo very much reminds me of blue bottle coffee; specifically their Nola product line. None the less, don't just take my word for it. Come and find out yourself!

The cafe has a great vibe! It reminds me of an LA coffee shop with good music and decor.I ordered a matcha latte, a regular latte, and a chocolate walnut cookie. Everything was pretty good, though I wish I had asked to have the cookie heated up.It's a small cafe with a few seats and tables, along with some outlets. Certain hours tend to be busier than others. I love supporting local businesses and would definitely come back again!

TLDR: cute cafe, 10-15 seats, outlets, expensive drinks, go early for pastriesHeard about this new coffee shop in Burlingame. Comfy space, came around noontime, they were already out of pastries. Small but unique menu, my coffee was delicious but expensive! Will come back to try pastries. Nab a seat and spent the afternoon reading~

*Parking: Located in downtown Burlingame, metered street parking *Experience: I met up with a girlfriend here at 9:30AM on a Tuesday and it was not overly packed but had a decent amount of patrons. Seats are super limited, so probably won't be able to hang out here once it does get busy. Aesthetics were minimalist clean. *Food: I ordered the Cortado while my friend got the pistachio einspanner. We also got the Hokkaido milk and yuzu matcha cheesecakes. The coffees were mediocre, I wouldn't be running to get my morning cup of joe here. The cheesecakes were delicious! Definitely the highlight of the coffee shop.

YUM!!! I got the pistachio einspanner and it was chefs kiss, or shall I say baristas kiss? I love the cream and pistachio bits on top of the espresso. The drink is unique and most importantly, delicious. Time to try more drinks next time!

It's a good thing that I decided to take a stroll and tah dah - stopped at GoodThing Coffee. Interior is simple, clean. Ordered a strong cortado, served with a glass of water on the side, as well as guihua oat latte, which I enjoyed. The coffee, not sure if it was dark roast, but it was just what I needed. Would return to try the pistachio einspanner one day ...

POOR customer service. No complaints about the coffee but will not be back. $7 for a mini latte. I would not mind the cost if I was greeted by a kind and friendly barista. Unfortunately this was not the case and was treated poorly and with lots of sarcasm.

Matcha was really good. Tasted very similar to Maiko in stonestown. The black sesame einspanner is delicious and so unique, but I've visited it twice only to have them be sold out both times. I also think their drinks are super expensive for such a small cup... I get you're paying a premium for quality, but with all the ice they put in the cup, it's almost a few sips before you get to the bottom of your drink! This is a nice treat, but not something I would get regularly.
