Located at 205 University Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94301, Kenz Coffee Bar @ Oklava operates as a coffee shop serving Palo Alto in California. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it.

In Palo Alto, coffee shops cluster around downtown offices, college campuses and the main commercial streets of residential neighborhoods, and the independents usually close by mid-afternoon while chains stay open into the evening. Across California, drive-thru coffee stands and kiosks fill the gap in suburbs and along highways, and roasters often sell bags and brewing gear at the counter. Check the listing for hours, whether the cafe takes mobile orders, and its Google rating and recent reviews; parking is easiest at suburban locations, while downtown shops rely on street meters or nearby garages. Loyalty programs are common and worth joining if you are a regular.

Hours are published for 7 days a week. Typical hours are 8 am–10 pm. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. No phone number is listed for this business, so the Google Maps link on this page is the best route for directions and any contact details Google has on file. Its website is kenzcoffee.com, where you may find menus, price lists or booking options.

Really enjoyed this Turkish-style cafe. The staff was friendly, the tea was good, and they have a great selection of delicious baklava. I also like that they’re open late, making it a nice spot for tea and dessert. The only downside is that the baklava is quite pricey for the size. One suggestion would be to have a separate area for laptop users, especially in the evening. This feels like the kind of cafe where people come to relax, enjoy tea and baklava, and catch up with friends, so having people working on laptops right next to them can make the atmosphere feel less comfortable.

Super cute coffee shop with delicious desserts and aromatic coffee. I ordered a cappuccino and toast, both of which were excellent. The cafΓ© itself has a very pleasant and cozy atmosphere, making it a great place to relax, catch up with friends, or simply enjoy a good cup of coffee. Definitely worth a visit if you’re around Stanford!

I found this cute little Turkish cafΓ© in the Stanford area and decided to stop by on a weekend morning. Parking is available nearby, though not necessarily right in front of the cafΓ©. The place was almost full when I arrived, but luckily I was able to get a table right away. Most of the tables don’t allow laptops β€” I’m not sure about the exact timing or rules β€” but they did accommodate me at a different table where I could sit for a while. They also offer free Wi-Fi, which was nice. I ordered a small cup of Turkish coffee, essentially their version of espresso, and it was served with a piece of Turkish delight, which was a lovely touch. Their display case was full of tempting Mediterranean/Turkish/Greek treats β€” various kinds of baklava, Turkish delights, and other sweets. I tried a mozzarella-stuffed bun and a slice of pistachio baklava, and both were incredibly fresh and delicious. Everything tasted thoughtfully made and high quality. If you love baklava or Mediterranean-style pastries, this place is definitely worth a stop.

Super cute coffee shop with delicious desserts and aromatic coffee. We got a latte and carrot pistachio baklava. I'd say latte was slightly on the stronger side - we liked it. Baklava was also very tasty, it was sweeter than the baklavas I've had in other places. If you're not a fan of sweet, you would want to try something else. But the cafe atmosphere itself was very pleasant.
