50 Best Cafes near Los Altos

“New “more than a coffeehouse” in Mountain View with a Venezuelan touch. Good ambiance and the menu offers an extensive list of items to please every taste. I got the “empanaditas” which are fried. Comes with cheese filling and ground beef. The red sauce was super hot. Caught me by surprise and I coughed and got teary eyes. It needs a warning! Coffee was great and look at that perfect heart work! Just beautiful. Parking during a Saturday can be challenging but a 2 block walk is a solution. Try it!“

“This feedback for the cafe at Seton Hospital. Unfortunately, I've been visiting hospice care for the past 4 weeks. I bought coffee and an occasional brownie from the cafe a few times. I have to say, no matter how busy it is, each person behind the counter has had the biggest smile and the utmost courtesy to each person in line, including myself. They probably don't realize that their smiles and positive attitude really help. Please let them know they're appreciated....and give them a huge bonus 😉“

“Highly recommended yummy yummy“

“Delicious food in a pleasant setting with great service. Recommended.“

“Haven’t had the desserts yet, but I loved the whole wheat and Lepain loaves. Nice that they will slice the loaves for you if you like!“

“Good food and nice portions, however I do think it is a little on the expensive side.

We tried the chicken schnitzel, the house potatoes, spaetzle and mushroom sauce. I really enjoyed the chicken and potatoes. The mushroom sauce was also very good.
I don't know why I keep ordering spaetzle, I think it is quite bland and oily/greasy. Not a fan

They have outdoor seating, indoor seating and a back patio. The staff was nice, I just wish they had a lunch menu option.“

“I love Next Level!
It's great for playing board games with my little kids - they have a shelf that's sorted by age.
It's also great for advanced strategy games. The staff give great recommendations based on what you like to play. They have lots of newly released and independent games that I hadn't heard of but ended up loving!“

“Amazing food, excellent place to attend an event and meet new people.“

“Ada’s is the best place for delicious food, friendly service and a real sense of community. On top of all that, it believes everyone can have meaningful employment and trains and offers wonderful work under the kind and generous care of founder Kathleen. It’s a community GEM!!“

“Indoor seating has reopened. Always the best coffee in town, by far!“

“Cafe Zoë is an incredible little community space that serves delicious beverages, food and entertainment. Kathleen, Zoë and the staff are truly amazing and provide great service. They are community minded and love how they support the arts as well.“

“First time visiting this place. This cafe seems to be a local favorite and I can see why. I had a ham&cheese croissant and a coffee - the pastry was delicious and the coffee came in a nice big mug. Local spots like this are always the best find!“

“One of the best up-and-coming pizzas in the bay. Plain cheese has always been great and I recently got the "Pub Grub" pizza lab special that had buffalo cauliflower and a house made ranch sauce, probably the best speciality pizza I've ever had.“

“We had a lovely lunch. Food and service were excellent!“

“Great small family owned and run bagel cafe. The bagels are fresh as can be, have a large variety and are reasonably price. They are the best and freshest bagels on the Peninsula. My wife and I love the lox cream cheese combo bagel. They don’t skimp on cream cheese, unlike Noah’s, served warm with great smells of the topping. Very nice outdoor patio to enjoy your brunch. They also have a variety of meat bagel sandwiches to choose from Al top notch and carefully made.“

“Location is a local food hall made of around 4 businesses.

Today stopped in to try their burgers. The company is called “Revival state burgers”.

decided to go with the OKC
- 2 patties
- potato bun
- grilled onions
- American cheese
- creamy garlic aioli
- Dijon mustard

It’s hard to not be bomb with that line up of ingredients. size wise it resembles the portion of a “double double” just minus the veggies. I know this isn’t a “smash burger” a little but of crisp/caramelization would take this over the top. Solid solid solid burger. Would come back for it.

Other things to consider, I have had the Ube latte from the coffee shop. That’s great also.

Worth a check out.“

“The lady who works behind the counter is extremely rude and unprofessional. Very snobby and no manners, she laughed in my face multiple times, and since then, I have not returned. She ruined the whole experience. I emailed and never got a response back. I'm not quite sure if this behavior is acceptable. But she had a gross attitude, a bigger, heavier set woman wearing glasses with hair in a bun.“

“Mr. Sun’s Boba has been my FAVORITE café in the Bay Area since December 2023. I love Mr. Sun Tea because (1) the ambiance is welcoming and perfect for both reading and working (2) the boba is healthy. The tapioca pearls are made FRESH in-house daily, without any chemicals or artificial additives.

My go-to order is the RAINBOW Boba Milk Tea with three flavors of boba. I love it so much that I also order Mr. Sun for my gatherings and catering needs.“

“Mi fermo spesso da Cafe Borrone per un caffè e una brioche, ma non riesco a trovare il locale nell’app Coverflex: accettate i buoni pasto?“

“Incredibly friendly atmosphere. Perfect for studying and sipping on a warm drink. Staff is friendly and genuine. Food is served in HUGE portions and you can’t beat the price. Have been here countless times!“

“이곳의 음료를 좋아합니다.
Drinks are nice! Boba is good texture.
Place has a lot of cute items.
Tiger Boba Milk Tea is great
Owner is kind, but little rude. I will say service is okay , 4 stars.

They have snacks and tiny claw machine. Also student pass for drinks.“

“Delicioso todos. Really enjoyed service and the food.“

“The book store was great!!“

“Frambrini's Cafe is upgraded and it is amazing! Extensive menu and big-portion dishes. I like the beautiful pink rose latte“

“Stanford in campus counter style cafe offering a blend of Southeast Asian flavours. One has to lower expectations given that this is within the university and caters to a diverse set of diners, so the tastes are milder vs the local Asian staples. A good representation nonetheless of Asian cuisine. The dining area is soley outdoors but relatively clean and provides a good campus spot to have ones meal and to meet up. No toilets available.

Vegetarian options: Counter style gives you options but ask servers on specific ingredients used

Parking: Stanford University parking system in effect while free parking lots are further situated with the use of free shuttles

Kid-friendliness: Ample options for kid's tastes

Wheelchair accessibility: Spacious seating outdoors but ordering has to be done by counter“

“샌프란에가면 마셔봐야하는 민트모히또아이스커피“

“Awesome place to enjoy good coffee, pastries and cosy atmosphere!“

“Where else can I find a crepe stuffed with cheese, avocado, egg and mushroom?? This was so delicious. The service here was amazing considering how busy it was and they went the extra mile to make sure I was happy with my lunch. Definitely if you are in the area and up for a quick and delicious mean DO stop in here. They have many vegetarian options true to their menu board and a case with a variety of baked goods 🤍🎈“

“I study here :) and it is quiet and not too many crowd here today.“

“The strawberry cake was delicious!“

“Jimmy's serves awesome food and his staff is the best catering crew around.“

“A true hidden gem in Mountain View. We love coming here for our Saturday morning bagel fix. The bagels are made in-house and have a fantastic texture, with some unique flavors like Swiss cheese, spinach, and jalapeño. Their homemade cream cheese is also a must-try. I'm a big fan of their Vietnamese coffee—it's got a unique blend that's unlike anywhere else. The place is simple but spotlessly clean, and the staff always wears masks. Just remember, there's no seating; it's takeout only.“

“Yummy delicious and super cool 😎“

“All time favorite cafe latte spot. With waffle & strawberries. At 7:30am!“

“Ordered the oolong milk tea with grass jelly. The grass jelly had great flavor and texture would definitely recommend! Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Also open later than most of the shops in Cupertino Main St which is a big win for those of us who crave a sweet treat at night!“

“These guys are amazing! They catered my daughter’s graduation party and it was delicious! They were very helpful, and they did everything from set up to cleanup! Thank you!!!“

“11/28/23 They now have Boba drinks and cold brew coffee, both of which I enjoy very much! The cold brew is great all by itself--was expecting to need cream and sugar, but it has a natural flavor that was great alone. The Boba is very well done here and neither overcooked nor undercooked. Try the iced mocha, and use decaf if you don't like caffeine as their decaf blend is very high quality and tastes great!Parking at De Anza is still free as of this date; no parking pass required at this time.“

“She is wonderful to work with. I have used her twice now. Once for a Mickey Mouse Twoodles cake and just recently for a baby shower. We got lemon for the cake and snickerdoodle for the cupcakes and when I tell you everyone loved them both. Her cakes are delicious and she does and amazing job with decorating them you send her a picture of what you want and she will not disappoint.“

“The best place to go for breakfast, lunch and dinner I was one of the first customers when opened up way back in 2007 if I'm not mistaken and I still go when I can. I quality has not changed one bit!!!!! And the owners are amazing!!!!!!!“

“I highly recommend this donut basket for everyone that need a jump start. Great wonderful service friendly people always asking about your day. Makes me feel like home. Amazing coffee delicious donuts with a lot of goodness.

Ps Jordy write this. I been coming here for the last 3 years. N trust me when I tell u they have the best donuts in Mountain View. I drive all the way out here from San Jose. Just for the donuts and the bomb ass coffee.“

“I recently visited Counterpoint with friends for brunch and had a fantastic time. We enjoyed the **Garden Omelette** with fresh veggies and Monterey Jack cheese, the flavorful **Veggie Breakfast Burrito** with feta and pico de gallo, and a refreshing **Seasonal Yogurt Parfait**. The **Breakfast Sandwich** with ham, avocado, and aged cheddar on a toasted croissant was a highlight. The friendly and helpful staff made our visit even better. We had a great experience and can’t wait to return!“

“Coupa cafe has very delicious food. They have many options, including vegetarian and gluten free. They have really good breakfast Burritos. I suggest you add shredded beef and add extra sauce, to give it more of a kick. If you like that. It comes with fruit and I usually get the mango ice tea with honey and powder sugar. If I just do one its not sweet enough. Yes it can be pricey so I dont indulge too much, but its a way to treat myself.“

“Good food, pleasant atmosphere, friendly staff. This is located inside the corner of the Computer Museum on the first floor. Surrounded on 2 sides by glass, when we went there the self driving car was parked to one side. We ordered a grilled cheese sandwich and got a hand made sandwich and a small, delicious, salad that we shared before touring the museum. If the day is nice, you can also sit outside and enjoy the food and the weather. Definitely recommend this restaurant as a good place to get a snack or meal while at the museum.“

“Love ALL of the menu options and seasonal baked goods! Specialty's is the best. You can order in advance and pick up your order or enjoy it there.

Peet's coffee bar inside the restaurant. My two worlds collide!“

“Cute cafe on Stanford’s campus. I loved the ample outdoor seating options! I got a burger which came with chips. It was good, but the burger patty could have used a little more seasoning in my opinion. The burger was also a bit pricey for the portion size you are getting, but that’s Stanford generally, so do not hold them against it. Staff is very kind & accommodating.“

“It was very nice. Food was great and atmosphere wonderful!“

“Mi favorito lugar para ir a desayunar algo fresco“

“Muy bonito lugar....y todo.bien en servicio de primera, la mejor atencion“

“Modern elegance combined with a cozy atmosphere, it is a great place to meet people or hashing out ideas!The cappuccino I ordered was expertly prepared, with a creamy foam and a rich, robust espresso base. What truly set it apart, however, was its temperature—served just right, it provided a satisfying warmth without being scalding.“
