Very rude and honestly prejudiced service I once again have to deal with. Being a black man in Santa clara you deal with this regularly unfortunately. Not just from white people, but other people of color as well. I walked in after going to the cupcake shop, purchasing one next door. I have a small box you can hold in the palm of your hand with a single cupcake. No backpack, no jacket. And shorts. I walked in, greeted the man behind the register, and went to look at the drinks.After seeing they had a large selection of drinks and that I hadn't seen many of them I began to browse the back wall full of single drinks. Then maybe after 5 minutes of browsing (I left the santa clara campus at 11:30 walking and went for a cupcake first mind you, not rushing) I am confronted by the man behind the register saying I have been there for 15 minutes and that I'm not allowed to just be in the store without purchasing something. I literally had two drinks in my hands looking between them both. Obviously not loitering. So I politely left. Unfortunately this is what people of color deal with. I know not to spend money where I'm not wanted. And the store owner will probably try to respond like many other people do with excuses, but telling an honest account is not badmouthing. It's just sad. Hope others will not have to experience it.
Quick and helpful not any of those I'm going to follow you around the entire store kind of people
Awful experience here with very shady business practices. Came here to buy some high end liquor and was told by the clerk, "Anything over $100, you have to pay cash and we don't accept credit card."(1) This was a straight up lie designed to try and take cash to avoid taxes. I've never heard of not accepting credit card over a certain dollar limit.(2) This kind of business practice is actually illegal, which will be reported to both the BBB and IRS/FTB.I typically like supporting small businesses, but this one will not be one of them given such greed and dishonesty. Unbelievable what some unscrupulous stores like this one will resort to these days.
Decent pricing nice store
Helpful staff kitchen has strange hours though.
Great variety but little expensive as compared to other stores like Safeway things like doritos
