Nirvana Soul Coffee - Express
233 W Santa Clara St, San Jose, CA
Crema's Take
“Nirvana Soul Coffee brings creative, signature drinks like their standout Honey Lavender Latte and Ube Latte to a cozy corner spot with genuinely warm baristas who take care with every cup. Their caramelized pastries and donuts are worth the visit on their own, and the intimate outdoor seating makes it an ideal refuge for a meeting or solo coffee moment in San Jose. Just note that hours can be a bit unpredictable, so it's worth calling ahead to make sure they're open.”

I love their sweet bread all the donuts in caramelized pastries over at 10 they are so good must try
Good when I've managed to go in the past, but everytime I try they have a "be back soon" sign and the doors locked. I tried twice today and have seen this often.
One of the best easy coffee spots in the area! Have tried the Honey Lavender Latte, Ube Latte and the Hazelnut Mocha and all of them were a hit. Very warm hosts and cozy little outdoor seating. Really wish they were open until later in the evening. Tried the croissant from their bakery menu and it went really well with hot mocha.
Opened early Sunday morning, I stopped in for a honey lavender latte. As always, the barista was very pleasant and made it a heart in the foam. I believe her name was Lorena, but I found myself calling her Lolo on my way out…very friendly :) I’m really happy this location is here. While I enjoy going to their other locations from Cupertino to their OG SoFA and SJSU in San Jose, this location at the hotel DeAnza is a cool little spot for a quick coffee. If you are accustomed to their full service, non-express stores, just remember they don’t have everything that you would expect at a full-service location, but the items are still indeed very good and tasty. One love
Cute little coffee shop, adjoining the hotel. They have a much bigger store about 15 minutes away. Got the ice vanilla latte, and it was pretty good. The barista was great, and she was very welcoming and very pleasant to talk to. Got the coffee cake as well, but it was kind of disappointing. Was too sweet and crumbly for my liking. They don’t really have any seating inside because the store is tiny, but there is a solitary table and two chairs, if you want to sit outside. It’s quite pleasant on a sunny day. Next time, I’m just gonna get the drink and avoid the pastries.
