I'm not the biggest Peet's fan in the world. It's another coffee chain. I don't get the people who find Peet's cozier or more benevolent than Starbucks. But the coffee is strong and I like that. This particular location gets a thumbs up for hiring people who are not as attitudinal as some other Peet's locations. Thumbs down for not nearly enough tables outside. The traffic noise on Tassajara can be deafening so it's not always great on that side of the patio anyway but it would beat standing. When people are using the chained up tables and chairs in front of Amici's in the morning, it's a sign that there might be a problem.
