In Short – In the wee hours, the strong smell of Peet's Coffee lures sleepy morning birds for their first caffeine fix of the day. These "Peetniks," the nickname dubbed to loyal customers, can be found reading the paper or chatting amicably while chipper baristas to brew a fresh, quality cup of joe. Originating in Berkeley, California, this coffee shop roasts and ships all 32 of its flavors daily to ensure the freshest beans available. Speciality blends, latte drinks, and iced beverages are all offered, each with the signature taste from their artisan roasting facility. However, coffee…

Best Coffee I've ever Had
by beangirl
I've never sat down here for coffee but I am a regular of buying whole beans to bring home. I've always had very very friendly service (often the same fellow who is professional and friendly) and when I get my pound to go I also get a cup of whatever is brewing to wet my whistle. Hands down the best coffee. I am a truly addicted Peet's fan and will continue to be.
- Pros: Best Coffee Ever, Friendly Service, Free cup with purchase of pound
- Cons: Hard to park in Harvard Square to pick up a quick pound of beans for home

A Taste of Home
by sfguitarist
Whenever I am in Boston and am missing the San Francisco Bay Area too much, I go to Peets. This Berkeley coffee institution is what Starbucks was modeled after. The owners were San Francisco Bay area residents who moved to Seattle and modeled it after Peet's and the rest is history. Great Northern California ambiance, great coffee (much better than Starbucks and, goodness sakes, Dunkin Donuts) and pastries. I love Peet's!
- Pros: Great coffee, great pastries, great ambiance.

The real deal
by miiki
Being an original Coffee Connection employee I was crushed when George moved on. Peet's defnitely fills the gap. The staff is super knowledgable when it comes to beans.
Professional and on the money. They rock.
I just don't get why Starbucks is so popular. Their coffee is really poor quality compared to Peets. Maybe it is because there aren't enough Peet's. [Hint Hint]
- Pros: Dead on Staff, Great Beans, Rotating "specials"
- Cons: , desperate? WF stocks, Not enough Peets!!!
The Details on Peet's Coffee & Tea
The Extras:
Grab a pound of the Arabian-mocha java; it is a world famous blend that costs only $13.
Save Money:
Instead of buying a pricey espresso drink, get a cup of house coffee---it is just as satisfying and still packs the necessary java jolt.
