This place is a fantastic find. Wonderful creative food served in a clean, cool environment. Great place for a quick bite or just to chill with a slow French-style lunch.

The pear and prosciutto sandwich is probably the tastiest sandwich I’ve had in SD county.

This new restaurant was a delight!! The food was so good and fresh. The options were unique and had so much flavor. I would absolutely frequent this restaurant if I lived in the area!! Make sure you visit and talk with the daughter/mother duo that take care of you.

This beautiful French cafe is truly a hidden gem! The food is delicious, the ambiance is charming, and the customer service is exceptional. I've been there twice so far (once with a large group for a breakfast social and the second time on my own to pick up something to go). I love the orange blossom granola so much that I picked up a bag to go. I also enjoyed a latte, yogurt parfait, Nicoise salad, and a very special chocolate hazelnut beignet! Tout est délicieux!

A truly charmant experience. From the moment you step into The French Door Café, you feel as though you’ve been transported to a small café tucked away on a quiet Parisian street.
I ordered the Dubai mocha, and mon dieu… it was absolutely magical — rich, smooth, beautifully balanced, and utterly indulgent. Every sip felt thoughtful and refined.
What made the experience even more special was watching her bake pastries fresh on site. This isn’t just baking — it’s art. Flaky, delicate, and clearly made with passion, love, and true craftsmanship. She is quite literally creating baking magic behind that door.
A hidden gem filled with warmth, soul, and exceptional flavor. I will most certainly be back — encore et encore. ☕️🥐✨
This place is incredible. For an obscure office park cafe, it’s clear that word has gotten out: this place is on FIRE!!! The owner is a highly accomplished chef, French, but also raised locally. She is brilliant. Come here — before there are lines out the door!

We just had The French Door Cafe cater an event for us. Their food was OUTSTANDING! The quiche absolutely delicious and the side salad and pastries were so fresh. Truly some of the best bakery we have ever had! They agreed to cater for us on a day where they are typically closed, their delivery service was warm and friendly, and most importantly their food was amazing. Our guests raved about everything! I highly recommend them!
