This is such a cute coffee shop that offers a little bit of everything. The atmosphere is chill and they have an outside patio in the back as well as inside seating but limited. I had their pour over and it definitely delivered with flavor and a good kick. I also tried the very popular Pistachio Einspanner latte and that was really good and now I know why it’s a favorite. The pastries are so cute looking and they pair well with their coffee. I ordered the Hokkaido Cheesecake and it was delish and the perfect size. The baristas are super chill and knowledgeable not to mention they have latte art skills. So if you’re in the area and want good coffee come check it.

Enjoyed visiting Burlingame and posting up here at Goodthing Coffee. They have plenty of tables in the back for you to hang out as well.
They’re coffee selection is really good. The banana latte was tasty and it reminded me of banana pudding with coffee. The matcha was great as well and I appreciated the barista adjusting the taste of it for me to make it a little sweeter.
I would love to come back here again and visit the area more. There’s a lot going on in this area and it seems very festive.

4 for the flat white.
5 for the walnut cookie & Hojicha brownie. The sweetness only comes from the chocolate chips. It’s rare to find here a dessert place that just has a hint of sweetness. The price is steep though probably because the ingredients are not skimped and masked by sugar.

I ordered the pistachio einspanner and the tiramisu cheesecake, and the total came out to around $23, which feels pretty steep for what you get. Unfortunately, both items were underwhelming. The einspanner lacked a strong coffee flavor, and the pistachio taste was barely noticeable unless you happened to sip some of the crushed pistachio bits. The tiramisu cheesecake was also quite bland — I couldn’t taste much coffee at all, which is disappointing for a dessert that’s supposed to highlight it. Overall, the place seems more Instagram-worthy than memorable in terms of flavor

They have really amazing Hokkaido cheesecake that’s worth a try!! We also ordered oragami pour over (costa rica) and it tasted good but light with acidity. The americano also felt on the lighter side using the espresso beans. Beans have good quality so we ended up getting the beans to make pour over at home. Def 10 out of a 10, hands down for the cheesecake!

a tiny space. the coffee was good but portion was smaller than i expected, there are better options out there. cheesecake was also good- i liked the silky layers of cream & fluffy cake but the price is kinda crazy. definitely worth trying once, but…

Found this gem while strolling through the neighborhood. The staff here are incredibly welcoming, they even surprised me with a complimentary Canelé, which honestly stole the show! It had that signature hard, crackly shell and an airy, tender interior that was perfectly balanced in sweetness. Pair it with a latte, and you’re set. I also gave their Hojicha Latte a go; while the milk was steamed beautifully, the tea flavor felt a little light. A bit more punch from the Hojicha would make it a 10/10. Still, a wonderful spot with great energy and top-tier pastries.

TL;DR: Above average flavor for an expensive half cup of coffee.
Goodthing definitely has above average options for a local cafe. Amazing cheesecakes and pastries, solid coffee menu, and an atmosphere that allows for a sit down to chat or even work if they aren’t too busy.
Keep in mind, the price per unit of anything here is very steep. As a cold brew bro myself, if you are reading this, you won’t get your money’s worth unfortunately as my picture shows if you order a coffee without ice, they will leave a great deal of space. You might be saying “of course! They can and should do that” and I would agree with you. Especially these days with margins of businesses being so tight, but…the cup is already smaller than your average size. And I’m out +$7

Got their guihua matcha with whole milk. It was very good but pretty sweet. The guihua flavor was pretty intense and nice. Sometimes it can have a bitter flavor when I’ve tried to make it at home but this was good. Pricey though.
