★★★★★ 5.0 Arlo · Dec 2025

Omg, this place is really cute with really nice decor and ambience. The staff were very nice and fast. We got two drinks. The White rabbit and lychee black tea. Both were delicious and at a reasonable price for boba in this area. Really enjoyed all the small business crafts that were for sale as well. Overall really sweet place. Definitely a good spot to grab a drink and a bite to eat and work remotely. Definitely want to come back soon!

Polaris Cafe is like a big oasis in the middle of a city. This is my new favorite spot to decompress and study. It is very inviting and relaxing. The staff are very nice and accommodating. The prices are reasonable. The vegetarian, breakfast, lunch, pastry and dessert options are a lot. The specials for today are butter chicken and tandoori chicken over basmati rice. I got my drink for $6. I am very glad to see that it is not packed. I can literally just sleep here. It look so peaceful with all the plants and granite tables + the beautiful fountain and scenery out the floor to ceiling windows. I’ll go the extra 20 miles to study here. I really love the concept and would love to have my own like this in the future.

Great atrium greenhouse vibe with light roast fruity espresso drinks from MczGlaughlins roaster up the street.

Love this little cafe! They turn out some delicious flavors. I get the breakfast burrito and it’s fire every time. So many yummy options for lunch too! The order ahead option is great too. Overall really cool atmosphere too with small little nick nacks and sauces to purchase.

One of the best breakfast burritos of my life. Lots of eggs and veggies and they didn't skimp on the sausage. $16 is pricey but so are most things in California. Come here if you get a chance- you won't regret it.
