Craving brunch and coffee, I discovered @PenelopeCoffeeandTea in Foster City—a delightful spot that did not disappoint. I began with the Fresh Belgian Berry Waffle, a thick, satisfying waffle topped with strawberries, blueberries, and whipped cream. Every bite was fresh and filling, a perfect treat for a sweet breakfast lover like me. Then came my Berry Cream waffle—a decadent dessert featuring a crispy-yet-soft waffle with vanilla ice cream, strawberries, caramel drizzle, and whipped cream. Absolute perfection! For my drink, I had Penelope's Samoas Coffee—a rich espresso shot blended with caramel, chocolate sauce, and toasted coconut. It tasted exactly like my favorite Girl Scout cookies—pure delight in a cup. My friend opted for the Cookie Monster, a bold espresso creation with cupcake, cookie dough, and salted caramel. She loved it, saying it reminded her of the ice cream version. This café is a fantastic place for brunch with friends who appreciate great waffles and coffee. Highly recommend!

Great atmosphere, I have been twice to try different coffees. I first tried their Greek one which was strong but good. Thankfully they warned me so of course I stuck with the large version and man was it worth it. Then next time I bought a chai latte and it was very good, slightly sweet but still great. I only give it 4 stars cause of an employee that worked there. She treated my wife very rudely when she asked for a meal with no eggs and told her they don't do it when the previous time we were there they did do it. After she was told they could do it by another employer they did it and she whispered some rude comments to a different employer. I had to bite my tongue because I want to come back for more as I am right next to it. Anyways it's a good place to hang out and do some work.

5 Food, 5 Service, 4.5 Ambiance; Yummy! Have the womlette (omelette in a waffle). Surprised with the tater tots, cheese and meat perfectly melded into a waffle. (See pics) Sweet waffles were tasty too. Everything was served with the correct accompaniments. Didn’t really need the toast but yummy addition anyhow. Ice coffee was strong and smooth. Wish they had an electronic menu with photos or self order kiosk with photos because there were a lot of choices, only one cashier and plenty of hungry people waiting for me to order. Plenty of outdoor seating, including a sofa and umbrellas if needed. Everyone left happy and satisfied. $45 3 people

My favorite cafe in the area by far. I reviewed this place 2 years ago and I'm happy to still give it 5 stars! I always get the Samoa latte and it's still great every time. The workers are always on top of it and have a great attitude. They also opened up their kitchen and it's superb. Their burritos and especially their womlettes are fantastic, although they are overpriced in my opinion. Regardless, I always tell my friends and bring them to this place.

Got the Samos Coffee (must try if you love the Girl Scout cookies or just love coconut) and the bacon Womlette, basically an omelette that’s been put in a waffle iron. The novelty was cool and tasted surprisingly good. A little lacking in flavor, but nothing hot sauce can’t fix. Fun to try once, but not something you need to get again. Very nice area, make sure to sit outside as they have lots of seating!
