Really nice place to grab a delicious breakfast sandwich. I had a sandwich with scrambled eggs, avocado,and bacon. Sounds pretty simple but it was delicious.

I had a nice long conversation with a friend while enjoying our breakfast and coffee. Clean bathrooms, friendly efficient staff, good food and coffee drinks.

This is my favorite spot for a sandwich and some coffee especially after a morning hike. My go-to recommendation is the Breakfast BLT. The bacon on it is mouthwatering delicious!! I’ve taken multiple friends and family here and they’ve all become fans too. If you’re already exploring Los Gatos, Purple Onion Café is absolutely worth the pit-stop.

Great fresh food, helpful staff. The only downsides are that it can get really busy at lunchtime because of students from the high school, and if you sit outside, be aware that it's a busy corner and can get quite noisy from the traffic. Otherwise it's excellent. I love the Ahi Superfood Salad, ate every bite!
