36 Best Cafes near Hercules

“The Best of the Best with the owner making the rating of her shop a 5 star! Yes, Michelle is very kind appreciates all customers walking in to make their order. What's even convenient for many of us who needs distraction as we wait for our order, there is a lotto scratchers machine. If your feeling lucky like I did... spent $30 on 1 scratcher and won $100. True story. I recommend their Avocado smoothie. The best Avocado smoothie in the Bay Area. I don't care and don't wanna hear it. Don't waste your money anywhere else. Go to Tapioca Cafe. Michelle makes the drinks better than her associates behind the register. She just knows how to make it. She's in the Boba game for over 10 years. Her donuts are made in house , not her house but at the shop very early in the morning. She's there all day every day and has the best kindest heart you will get to meet. Very professional, clean store. I could go on but I do have to mention that she is very Humble for a business owner. Mostly she could be seen in the back making sandwiches and washing the dishes and utensils that customers and associates have used. Her associates are just as hard working as she is, which I really don't mind tipping them in the tip jar every time I pay them a visit for my yummy taro smoothie. If you mention to her in question "Who's got the Best of the Best Avocado smoothie?" That's the secret 50% off . It only works at lunch and has to be mentioned before making your order at noon up to 30 mins after that, forget it. You'll get the... are you slow look. Don't take it personal, she gives me that look all the time then she breaks into her natural smile.“

“The perfect stop in Hercules, with a gorgeous view of the water. Had a taro milk tea, a chicken empanada (get the chimichurri!) & a guava alfajor — all delicious! The seating is only outdoors & is limited but it is a spot deserving of your business. Fast service & fantastic food & drink in a beautiful spot — what more could you ask for?“

“Food experience: 4/5
Service and

Beautiful Palestinian cafe. They offer halal chicken sandwiches and I only wish they would offer halal turkey and beef. But the quality of the chicken in the sandwiches is tasty. The cafe drinks are really special and highly recommend it. And the simplicity of their croissant flavors like the zataar and cheese croissant is really tasty. They have lots of Kunafa style desserts here too.“

“Thank You for the Vegan options!! 🌱“

“To start off, the staff and service was excellent and the atmosphere was warm and cozy. The Bloody Mary was a little underwhelming with the overall flavor and garnishes. The California Benedict and Bagel Delux were exquisite, unique flavors and a lovely presentation and the portion sizes were perfect on each plate. We left feeling adequately full but not overstuffed and very satisfied“

“I enjoyed visiting Cha Thai tea! The employees are always very welcoming and helpful with their recommendations. I really enjoyed this drink (I think it was a coconut avocado special? I forgot to look at the exact name of the drink) and pandan custard toast. I also enjoyed the mango coco the previous time I came here. They have a smaller, simpler menu that's not too overwhelming but the ingredients seem very fresh and tasty! I'll definitely be back!“
