We had a very disappointing experience here. The food menu is completely outdated and limited. They have pre-packaged sandwiches, bagels, and some pastries. I got a bagel with cream cheese and it literally came out with a disposable knife/cream cheese tub in a takeout sleeve to spread myself. The experience was completely not worth the price and disappointing for a dining in at a cafe. The overall quality was nothing better than a grocery store bagel. We also got a spinach & artichoke pastry and monkey bread, both were stale. Drinks were overly sweet and were not great quality. We've been to cafes all over San Jose and this is by far the most disappointing.
We bought a Spanisjh Latte and Matcha Latte,both were made to order and delicious! They Spanish Latte was sweet though not too sweet . Their service was prompt. The area to sit is small.
Coffee was excellent, however i came here primarily for a late breakfast only to discover they changed their menu over 6 month ago. I was disappointed that all the reviews and pictures show delicious avocado toast with a poached egg 🍳. It does not exist here anymore. 😢 Highly Recommended (5 stars) for coffee. But 2 stars for late breakfast options.
Saw the photos of the sliced avocado toast - but looks like it's changed to be the usual mash with greens on top. Was still fine, and the staff were nice. Guess I'll just be the first to add what the current avo toast looks like.
Voltaire Coffee is a hidden gem in downtown San Jose, offering some of the best coffee I’ve had in a while. The coffee beans truly stand out with a distinct flavor that hits differently in the best way. I tried the double shot vanilla latte and the caramel latte, both were excellent and crafted to perfection. The ambiance is cozy and welcoming, whether you choose to sit indoors or enjoy the outdoor seating. The latte art is impressive and adds a personal touch to the experience. The service is equally delightful, making the whole visit a hit. If you’re in San Jose and looking for a small, charming coffee spot with great vibes and even better coffee, Voltaire is definitely worth a visit!
