50 Best Cafes near Corte Madera

“Fantastic bookstore, with amazing inventory, staff and cafe. One of my all time favorites.“

“I ordered Spice tuna salad 🥗 so delicious 😋 and very fresh 100% recommended❤️“

“This is my local go to when I need an excellent tasting coffee before work. They have an amazing selection of Brazilian options for food. I tend to lean on the tasty misto, or the bacon avocado egg cheese bread sandwich! And, if you like hot sauce, don’t pass up a chance to try theirs out!

The staff are always friendly, attentive, and the cafe itself has plenty of space. It’s bright and has plenty of good vibes the plants and decor.

Could be busy on weekend mornings, but chills out for lunch and onwards.

Always a 10/10 when I visit.“

“Had a great experience at Maison Nico today! I ordered a Pain au Chocolat and matcha, and both exceeded my expectations. The Pain au Chocolat was beautifully made - so light and delicate with those perfect flaky, crispy layers on top that you expect from a well-crafted pastry.
What really stood out was their matcha. Finally found a place that serves it the proper way - no added sugar at all! It's refreshing to taste the pure, earthy flavor of quality matcha instead of the overly sweet versions you get at most cafes.
I was fortunate to walk in without a line, but within several minutes there was a steady stream of customers forming a queue. That's always a good sign that locals know this place is worth the wait. The quality of their pastries and attention to authentic preparation definitely shows. Will be back to try more items!“

“One65 was an amazing discovery on our trip to San Francisco. Having spent the first half of our life in Montréal, Québec, Canada where it was hard to find a bad restaurant, we were absolutely amazed by this Bistro which looks more like a high end dining experience. The menu online & the photos attracted us to this location but we were amazed by the well timed service, the crisp white tablecloths, the table setting and the pleasant and calm atmosphere. My choices of charcuterie platter was perfectly sized; the chicken & the pork rillettes where a wonderful surprise. My husband had an onion tart with the crust as perfect as they get & which I envied. He loved his halibut, moist and tender and I raved over my grilled half lobster, so tender that I found myself munching on the shell parts as well. My bread pudding was not of overwhelming size & perfectly flavored. Don chose the Affogato (scoop of vanilla gelato « drowned » with a shot of hot espresso). We wanted to go back today but they are closed on Sundays.?“

“Amazing burritos. Bomb.com“

“Sandwiches are fantastic! Generous portions of fresh ingredients made to order. Fully stocked pastry case with classic and specialty treats! Friendly staff, great vibe,, totally affordable menu. LOVE!“

“5/5! Would come back again and smile about it :) great atmosphere, friendly staff, plants aplenty, yummy food, and even a little corner with trinkets for purchase. I got the veggie sandwich and would recommend! I tried the yuzu latte as well but don’t think it’s a good choice- if you love yuzu, find a yuzu lemonade or a drink where it’s not mixed with coffee. I was hoping it’d be a light drink to highlight the yuzu but it pretty much just tasted like coffee with a hint of yuzu (you’ll really need to stir up the drink to taste even that hint). I think it was a cool idea to include a trendy flavor in a latte but it doesn’t let the yuzu shine. It wasn’t bad but I just don’t think it was the best use of yuzu. I’d recommend a different drink.

Good work/study place! I’m always on the lookout for growing my list of the best spots in the city to work/study. This place is a medium sized cafe- not too cramped but not large. A fair amount of seating with good lighting, wifi, and outlets. Bathroom open without key needed.“

“Very nice place for breakfast with tasty food. The place gets busy on the weekends but the service crews have a system and they get orders out fast. The patio area was nice and our waiter was great. Overall good place to enjoy a great breakfast and excellent service.“

“Happened upon this space while on a puzzle hunt-walkabout thing. The breakfast sandwiches are killer, they have SO MANY kinds of Haribo gummy candy, and the folks are sweet as can be. There was not much room to sit as they were doing a little renovation work when we were there, but I’ll say it again, awesome breakfast sandwich!“

“This place has always been amazing! The Vietnamese sandwiches, turkey sandwiches, and beverages are always splendid. The staff is friendly. There's frequently a nice place to sit either inside or outside. Love taking their sandwiches to go as well! Highly recommend, it's a place I bring my friends to!“

“I thought this was an ordinary around the corner boba tea shop, the store presentation and their uniqueness really surprised me. Not only did they offer Vietnamese coffee made from equator coffee, they also offered a variety of matcha for matcha lovers like me. They pretty much have everyone covered. I also like that they have the option to do 0% sweet, which is extremely important for those who are health conscious.“

“A real local spot near Union Square. Eric and his family have made a great place for grabbing breakfast, sandwiches, and coffee. Great prices, and many locals come here that you can meet and chat with. My goto place for lunch, morning coffee, and small bites to eat. Also, the Vietnamese sandwiches are the best I've had in the city.“

“San Francisco’s most hidden gem“

“Went to this place because it was close to the place I was staying at while on a weekend trip and it turned out to be one of the coziest little cafes with the sweetest workers and best service. The food was great and coffee and hot chocolate were too. If I'm back in this area anytime soon I'll definitely go back.“

“Wow, don't miss this unassuming little gem. The veggie burger 🍔 was superb and he was happy to make it a lettuce wrap. Wifi too! I'd go out of my way to come here again - note that you have to go into the large building to see the entrance. My small complaint is that my cappuccino defaulted to a paper cup for my in house order, but I'll just specify next time. Highly recommended.“

“I loved this place, their sandwiches are huge and quality far exceeds the price, making it as worthy as it gets for lunch. Everyone was sweet and serviceable, loved this place, will continue to go pretty often! Had the Goodfella, delicious.“

“Genuine 10/10 hidden gem. I don’t say this lightly. Best soba I’ve had outside of Japan. Best value in SF hands down. And this close to Fidi? Absolutely insane. I don’t even want to write this review because I want to gatekeep this place for myself, but the cute couple running it was so kind I couldn’t help but want to show some support.“

“اكل حلال اسعار في متناول اليد تعامل قمة في الذوق“

“Apple fritter size is huge and generous. It is nice.

I also bought matcha green tea latte, there is no “no sugar” option, but it is not too sweet, still taste nice to my liking :)

Price is affordable in SF“

“Five bright stars, Lissa darling!“

“Wildly efficient. Came in during a lunch break behind a group of 15, and they came and took orders in the line and triaged tasks and to minimize waits. Only got the dirty chai, which again beat expectations and was perfectly balanced. Looking forward to exploring the menu more“

“Fantastic Coffee, Great Food, and Excellent Service!

Ashley’s Café in the Inner Richmond is a true gem! The food is fresh and delicious, with a great selection of breakfast and lunch options. Their coffee is absolutely fantastic—smooth, rich, and expertly made. Whether you’re grabbing a quick cup or sitting down for a meal, the quality is always top-notch.

What really sets Ashley’s Café apart is the excellent customer service. The staff is friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, making every visit a pleasant experience. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to come back again and again.

Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area!“

“This spot is such a great option if ur looking to grab & go for lunch. They serve delicious hearty meals at a great price point.
I found out about the place from too good to go, but will definitely come back to try more of their menu.

I was given a generous portion of rice, beans, vegetable , mac&cheese & salmon.
Everything was seasoned & cooked well, from the salmon that’s so tender & not dry, has great sauce on top. Flavorful yellow rice, the vegetables was crunchy & delicious.
If ur looking for a hearty & quick lunch stop by this place!“

“I had the elephant chai and it was delicious service was good, the peace looked funky, pricing was ok Unfortunately it looked like there was maintenance or renovation work being done and I was there at an odd time, but generally it looks like it could be quite pillar and cool.“

“Met for a Summer Vacation lunch today with my Bestie (who has enjoyed CAVIAR COMPANY before on several occasions). We are both teachers, so our downtime events need to feel extra special. Svetlana (Our AMAZING Server) made certain that we were treated to the perfect experience. Knowledgable about the food/wining pairings, but also beyond passionate about her joy for caviar/champagne. Menu prices might appear high, but you can mix and match items and share plates. EXTRAORDINARY!!“

“Highly recommend Best coffee in San Francisco ☕️“

“This family run cafe is the best. Get the Bibimbap!! If you eat in they’ll even do it stone pot style.

Vegetarian options: Any of the tofu specialties or sandwiches.

Kid-friendliness: They are the best with my kid. I delivered next doors so they’ve known him since day 1.“

“Love this place. It’s always good and fresh. The Nutella/ strawberry 🥐 croissant is yummm, a must have.“

“We stop Here every time we go through San Francisco. Their coffee is marvelous and the pastries we have tried are delicious. The atmosphere is definitely San Francisco neighborhood welcoming and the mural Inside reminds me of an Italian village. Don’t miss this stop.“

“The service is fast and effective, and the food is delicious - as you can see from the long lines of people wanting to eat there. We are traveling from Norway and Louisiana, but always visit Honey Honey when we are in town 🌹🌹🌹“

“If you are in an absolute hurry, this may not be the place. But if you have 20-30 min to order and eat, this is one of the best. A colleague and myself both at the chicken bacon sandwich. It was absolutely perfect. One of the best deli sandwiches I have had in a while. We had it on sour dough bread and used the hot red pepper sauce on every bite. What a great find.“

“Very polite staff. Soup was hearty, salad was fresh, and portions were generous all around. The cashier even threw in a free drink on account of it being a slow day. Lighting is gorgeous and it feels like a little pocket of good in the City.“

“Fresh and yummy!“

“A very cozy place in the financial district. Even though we went on a weekend, there were still a lot of people working there. Their pour over coffee is reasonably priced and they also provide coffee beans in the shop. I like the paintings they have inside. The coffee also comes with a postcard telling us where the coffee beans come from and the history, which I think is very nice. If you like coffee, I recommend giving this place a try.“

“Its been a while since I have been here. Loved it before, still loving it now. Food was excellent! Enjoyed the tuna tartare and the shrimp&lobster risotto! Shared the special apple bread pudding with cream! Service was attentive and thoughtful! The space beautiful in its natural light. Would always recommend.“

“Very good little Cafe and was an unexpected find on our last day in San Francisco, the food was really tasty and pancakes were really good, prices were fair, portions were generous, good selection of food on the menu and the service was brilliant, a must to visit.“

“I was gifted a box of chocolate’s as a thank you that was shipped to Ohio in June. They arrived perfectly. And OMG they were delicious! I savored those chocolates and smiled each time I indulged in one. Definitely recommend!“

“Exceptionally helpful & friendly staff cooking superb food in a very chill environment. A must visit in the city.“

“Delicious fresh dishes, a pity that there were no anchovies in the Caeser salad, but fortunately the lettuce was wonderfully crispy. Meatballs were also tasty, as was the quinoa salad. Had a glass of wine with my food on their nice terrace. The sun was shining, what more could you want? The only downside is that everything is served in plastic. But otherwise a really great address! Definitely go in if you're in the area!“

“A very charming café with a cozy atmosphere. You can even sit upstairs, and the girls at the counter were very friendly. The pastries were delicious, and it’s convenient that they accept credit cards. There’s seating both inside and outside, which is great. However, the only downside is that people are constantly smoking on their outdoor patio, and the smoke drifts inside. Unfortunately, I had to leave quickly because sitting in the smoke was unpleasant. I walked by the café a few more times afterward, and every time, someone was smoking outside.“

“Just stop in. You'll pat yourself on the back for discovering yet another San Francisco sought after gem, and why San Francisco has long been famous for neighborhood gems, like the Fueling Station.“

“Best roast pork around !!! For $12 are you kidding me ???“

“Great outdoor dining. Great food ! Great service !“

“The woman who I assume to be the owner is very sweet and attentive. The music creates a very calming and pleasant atmosphere. The plants are very pretty, especially on the back patio! There was a lot of great bougainvillea in bloom! The cafe is filled with paintings and beautiful pieces of art that adds to the charming vibe! There’s also a piano for customers to play—We didn’t use it, but is a really nice touch! The cafe appears so unassuming from the street, but is so large and cozy once you go in!

My partner and I both really enjoyed the sandwiches. I’d definitely recommend the vegetarian eggplant sandwich on a sweet french roll. The chai latte was a bit weak, though still good. However, the cafe latte with syrups was very nice! They definitely don’t skimp on the latte foam!

Great service, very sweet and charming business :)“

“Our first morning in SF and one of the few places open for breakfast before 8am. I had a turkey breakfast bagel and my wife had avocado toast. Both were delicious and freshly prepared, the number of people coming in after us showed how popular this place is“

“I had such a wonderful experience at this café! The food is so good. The coffee is absolutely delicious—fresh, rich, and full of flavor. What made my visit even more special was the warm atmosphere created by the staff.

The generosity of the owner truly stood out. It’s rare to meet someone who cares so much about both the quality of the food and the happiness of the customers. You can feel that this place is built with passion and heart.

If you’re looking for a café with amazing coffee, delicious food, friendly people, and an owner who genuinely goes above and beyond, this is the spot. Highly recommended—I’ll definitely be back!“

“Nice and relaxing place. Wish they have more food choices“

“Amazing place for breakfast and coffee! I highly recommend it.“

“The best cappuccino in Marin hands down! Been going there for years -- the service has been consistently excellent and the pastries and cakes are quintessential Italian delicacies! Gary and Jeannie Rulli are the dedicated hands-on proprietors -- wonderful people and a blessing to our Larkspur community🥰!“
