11 Best Cafes in Burlingame

“Amazing staff, sandwiches, and specials. Christine runs it and she's a great person. You'll love Yay!“

“sandwich great cookies. great friendly owners“

“The food there is very amazing!! Been going there for 2 years now! Met the owner Teresa since 2 years too! She's very nice and has wonderful passion for the sandwich business! As always, keep up the wonderful work!“

“Great food and love the outside seating. so quant and cozy. Chinese chicken salad is delicious. very friendly staff. I only wish they had the nutrition info next to the items on the menu for those of is that like to keep track.“

“Has a nice atmosphere and seems like a good place to get a little work done.

I had the breakfast burrito and I thought it was good but it felt more like a regular burrito than a breakfast burrito. It would be nice if they offered bacon / chorizo. It was a little expensive (around $20).

I would come back here.“

“Hands down the best Matcha in the area. Beautiful velvety texture, rich dense taste with perfect balance of sweetness/bitterness. Great steady caffeine high, pretty strong (I only get half a shot here). Their einspanner and sesame syrup are also chef's kiss 😚🤌

Nice clean open air store as well. I like that you can order ahead.

I give 4/5 stars for 2 reasons that keep me from going there more often:
- It doesnt open until 10am. I would love to see them open earlier! 10 is too late to wait for a caffeine fix, it kills me.
- No decaf options. Maybe consider stocking decaf espresso for those who want to enjoy your drinks later in the morning or afternoon.

Thanks for all you do!“

“⭐️Found this gem during a layover in San Francisco literally a 2 minute walk from my hotel, and I’m so glad I stumbled onto it. From the second I walked in, the service was outstanding. The manager was incredibly kind, warm, and attentive, the kind of hospitality that actually makes your day better, not just polite small talk.

⭐️What really stood out was when she noticed I was struggling to figure out how to get to the nearest market. Without hesitation, she offered to drive me there herself so I wouldn’t have to pay for an Uber. That kind of genuine generosity is rare, and it turned a simple coffee stop into one of the highlights of my trip.

⭐️The food was immaculate fresh, well presented, and clearly made with care. I also loved that they have outdoor seating with proper tables, perfect for enjoying your coffee in the sun or people-watching for a bit. The whole space was spotless, clean and tidy from the counters to the restrooms, which says a lot about how the place is run.

⭐️The atmosphere overall was relaxed but polished the kind of spot you’d want to return to even if you didn’t have a flight to catch. If you’re ever passing through SF, even just for a layover like me, this place is 100% worth the short walk. Highly recommend!😍❤️“

“Step into France. The croissant are perfect - and so many choices. I love to go on homemade pasta day.“

“I had to stop by Royal Donut Cafe because of all of the great reviews I saw on Yelp! And I must say that I wasn't disappointed at all! The staff was awesome! From the cashier, to the cooks, and the server. And I even got a chance to meet the owner, Terri, who has taken over the business for the past 15 years! Definitely going to be a regular here! I ordered the vegetarian omelet! 😋“

“Ordered a mocha to go and it was well made. There was plenty of street parking out front and seating inside and outside. Staff were friendly and not was clean inside. Everything looks so delicious and well made. I can’t wait to go back and try more. Perfect place to start your morning at.“

“Easy to find, plenty of parking. Very impressive office complex, very inviting common area with a short walk to the water side of the San Francisco Bay. Views of aircraft on final approach to San Francisco International Airport.
The coffee shop is clean and well laid out, kind of small, not very much indoor seating, but plenty of outdoor seating and tables.
Good servers, our order was taken promptly and correctly. Lattes and bagels, both delicious.
We would visit again.“
