50 Best Cafes near Mill Valley

“Once again, I had a wonderful experience shopping at Sweetwater. Many thanks to Sales Engineer Mitch Dazey who did a great job. I'm glad that he was able to get a Korean made instrument. Competitive pricing, good discounts, excellent customer service, items thoroughly and carefully packed. I will definitively recommend anyone to shop at Sweetwater.“

“I was hungry. They fed me. Mom and pop shop right next to the water. Wonderful place to enjoy breakfast or lunch. I got the Avacado toast and to be honest it wasn’t fantastic but it was not bad. It was a better option than fast food when looking for a place to eat on our road trip. I would like to try some other things on the menu before saying the food is good or bad. But overall the place is really cute and I enjoyed the experience“

“I absolutely love Muir Woods. So beautiful and peaceful. A trip to California must include a trip to this park.“

“Food is well priced and the atmosphere very pleasant.
Staff are very friendly and the shop has a lovely rustic feel.
The location is safe and I did not feel anxious leaving my car with all my belongings on the side street.“

“Great facility and staff for hands-on culinary skills learning.“

“This is definitely an insiders’ spot in San Francisco. It’s usually pretty busy from the street view so I decided to try it on a Friday and it was still busy. I don’t want to talk the place up. There’s no need for that at a five star restaurant. The proprietors of the establishment have their photo up with the Mayor. Word on the street is that this place is like a religion. The food was good. Changed my mind about a few things. Made me ask, what is food in San Francisco today? Would I go there again? Yeah maybe if I had 30 minutes on a Friday, but no and not because the experience was terrible, but because they had already mastered the art of business in San Francisco if not the world.“

“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.?“

“Such a great place!!! The coffee is delicious and the pastries are honestly some of the best I’ve had in SF. Everyone was super friendly and welcoming and Patrick especially took great care of us. Really enjoyed our time here and would definitely come back. Highly recommend😍“

“If you're looking for an exceptional place to get coffee and a Vietnamese Bahn Mi, you must visit Fresh Brew!

I was greeted promptly and did not have to wait long to order or wait for the food and coffee to be ready. You can tell the owner takes pride in his shop and was happy to have visitors.

The iced coffee was vibrant and perfectly balanced. Not too strong or watered down. It was refreshing drink to have on warm SF afternoon.
Instead of typical pork, I tried the chicken Bahn Mi. The baguette was crunchy on the outside and soft and moist on the inside. It was filled with fresh vegetables and pickled veggies along with the perfect amount of sauce. There was no skimping of chicken, just the right amount to make the sandwich filling.

My only small complaint would be the lack of seating. However, it's a small shop in a dense area of the City so that's to be expected.

Prices are very reasonable for the portions, no silly up charges. I would highly recommend this coffee shop for lunch. Next time I will go earlier and try one of the breakfast offerings.“

“Good food, friendly service, and a comfortable space overall. I enjoyed the breakfast sandwich, the cookies, and the hot chai. I'm looking forward to going back again soon. 😊“

“San Francisco’s most hidden gem“

“Nice cafe with a good selection of drinks and food right off the main thoroughfare. Upon walk in you are able to see a menu showcasing all of their drinks and food. They have acai bowls, a huge assortment of pastries, crepes, etc. everything has Brazilian flair which was cool. We ordered acai bowls which are big for their size and jam packed full of fresh fruit. Honestly, one of the best acai bowls I’ve had, presentation wise and taste wise. The coffees were also good, but nothing spectacular. The light pastry we ordered was very good and fluffy. You can see the assortment of pastries as you go through the check out, as it’s a bit like a school lunch line. I highly recommend if you’re looking for a trendy but quiet spot to have a good meal and a cup of coffee.“

“Five bright stars, Lissa darling!“

“I absolutely loved the breakfast! Despite the simple interior, every dish was beautifully presented with the attention to detail you'd expect from a Michelin-starred restaurant. The omelet and smoothies were fresh and delicious. I especially appreciated the European-style approach—clean, natural flavors without being overloaded with spices, heavy sauces, or grease. A wonderful place if you enjoy fresh, healthy, and beautifully prepared food. Highly recommended!“

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

“Highly recommend this cafe for its delicious (and super affordable) bahn mi sandwiches! I got the grilled chicken. The bread was warm and crunchy on the outside and fluffy inside. And the generous portions of chicken and picked veggies filled me up. The staff were super nice as well. Hidden gem!“

“The waffle is a little bit too dry. The waffle fries need a little bit oil or something for the Furikake seasoning to stick.“

“Both the salmon breakfast sandwich and the veggie sandwich are amazing! The bread is well done and salmon &eggs are fresh in the sandwich. They have a water dispenser there and a relatively clean restroom. Good atmosphere with the plants and seats by the window. Loved it!“

“Good food and excellent service! I highly recommend their coffee drinks. Also, the fresh squeezed OJ is such a treat. I am sure their non-brunch items are good but I am still obsessed with their breakfast items.“

“High quality matcha and delicious sandwiches!
We came on a trip visiting SF and stopped by for lunch. We got the strawberry cream matcha and the pistachio cream. By far the strongest matcha latte I’ve had but in the best way— you can tell they use high quality matcha.
For sandwiches we got the Tonkatsu with Pineapple and Fish Katsu with Shiso. The sandwiches were hot, flavorful and incredibly filling. We also got the crab and salmon onigiri, and would recommend the crab one.
The atmosphere feels like a cute study spot for students or to catch up with friends. Service was good as well.“

“Perfect for breakfast and lunch. Love these pastries 😊“

“We came here on a lark because we found parking a few blocks away while running an errand. Wow. The food is fantastic and the outdoor patio is so nice.

Best breakfast burrito I have ever had.
My partner loved the chicken rice bowl too which she ordered because she couldn't find anything else she wanted. She said she will be dreaming about the bowl now.“

“Great food and service. Great presentation“

“Such a cozy little cafe!
The food was delicious 👌🏻 We ordered the bacon, egg & cheese bagel and the ham & egg croissant, plus two iced blended mochas. Everything was fresh and made to order.

The place is small, which is what makes it feel so cozy and welcoming. The ladies were so kind and friendly, and you can really tell they care about the food they make. Everything tasted fresh and homemade.

Definitely a great little spot for a delicious breakfast and coffee.“

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

“Great coffee and service!“

“Highly recommend Best coffee in San Francisco ☕️“

“Great little find while touring the city! Had to stop by three times in two days. Fantastic sandwich’s and great pastries.“

“Been on a journey to find my ultimate diner pancake: crispy edge, golden surface area(both sides), perfect bite. I’m a sucker for pork sausage — and let me tell you — this is charred and seasoned to perfection. Best cup of drip coffee that’s ever graced my lips. And best of all, the service. I am a first time customer and Amber made me feel like a regular. Pork Store Cafe is a community hub. I will be making this my monthly ritual.“

“A fantastic hidden gem in San Francisco. Excellent food, reasonable prices for the area, and always friendly owners/staff. The cafe can be hard to find off the street, as you either enter through a parking garage entrance or an office building lobby.

It can get tight inside when they’re busy with limited seating and people waiting to order, but they stay busy for a reason. I certainly will keep going back, as Sutter Street Cafe has become my go-to quick breakfast spot in SFO.“

“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.“

“I got the (edited:not double matcha) matcha with matcha cold foam I honestly didn’t taste or see the cold foam on it. I got it 75% sweet I think it was still too sweet it seems like the matcha is good quality but is just too sweet for me I think there’s way better matcha places than this one“

“Love the cozy atmosphere here.“

“Très bon accueil, produits de qualité, à recommander.“

“Flavor Explosion!!! Raw, comfy, exciting, fresh, vibrant, alive, approachable Mexican cuisine with its own fun twist, while representing and respecting the classic flavours.

The spot is very cute. You can grab and go, or if you are lucky, yiu can sit inside or outside in their parklet.

Good wine selection, laking Mexican wines, but the rest of the drinks are great, especially their aguas fresas (killers).

We ordered their tamales bowl and the salad, both are worth every bite! Mouthwatering combo if you go with someone else.“

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

“Delicious and fresh almond crescent and Tasty latte, very enjoyable!“

“Solid sandwiches. I can’t speak to service or atmosphere because I ordered delivery but did enjoy what I ordered. I had the green dream with chicken added, and my wife an original and chia pudding. For my kids I ordered an Angelo, godfather, and bandiero.“

“Holy Cow! We came to see a concert and stopped for lunch. My finicky son said it was the best bacon burger he ever had. I got the Cheesesteak. I am from the east coast and know cheesesteak. this one was phenominal!! only able to eat half but the other half will get eaten. props to your place for making 2 travelers so happy!! thank you!!“

“Cafe International is a welcoming cafe in Lower Haight. The delightful owner, Zahra, is inviting and warm. The food is as outstanding as the coffee, making it the perfect spot to checkout. Be sure to stay for the live music.“

“Enjoyed meeting Ziad, the owner, today!“

“What a great Matcha spot! I really enjoyed the mango matcha and how unique it tasted. The staff was super generous as well as my drink had accidentally spilled outside and they offered to replace it. Thanks to the staff for a nice drink and experience“

“Picked up a too good to go box for lunch and it was great! Walking in I was immediately heartened to see the sweetest man manning the counter offering folks to try things and explaining the food options which all smellt incredible. The other staff who was equally as kind and welcoming grabbed my box. It was packed full of mac and cheese, sausage, beans and some cooked cabbage. All very delicious too! There was a chimmichuri type sauce on the sausage that was INCREDIBLE. I will definitely be back tgtg or not. What a sweet little gem!“

“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.“

“great value and delicious on- the- go breakfast selections. An independent establishment that enhances the neighborhood.“

“This was my first time visiting Oddcha while heading home from San Francisco, and it definitely caught my attention because of the great reviews.
We ordered the Coconut Bomb and the Thai Twister, and both drinks were excellent. They weren’t overly sweet and had a really refreshing flavor. The boba also tasted fresh, which made the drinks even better.
Ordering was easy using their kiosk system. One thing to note is that parking is located behind the shop. It was a bit confusing at first since the store is on a very busy road, but once you find the back parking area, it’s much more convenient.
Overall, a great stop for refreshing drinks—I’d definitely come back!“

“Such a cute little Cafe with it. Beautiful patio area for outdoor seating! Garden House Cafe run by Jeanette is a little place with menus to span from breakfast till after lunch. Outstanding pricing for San Francisco coffee cafe. Where else in SF can you go can have a double cappuccino for less than $5? Jeanette's other employee that I interacted with for my cappuccino order was great too. Chill place to go an relax with nice music playing on the stereo. Looking forward to a return visit.“

“Perfect unpretentious spot for brunch, lunch, coffee. Super fresh ingredients. Great workspace in historic Presidio buildings.

Updated: love this hidden gem! Note: they stop serving breakfast at 11:00 am sharp, and start lunch service at 11:30 am - so plan accordingly. Cash is preferred. Large portions.“

“Shoutout to Angelina’s Deli Cafe in San Francisco! Stopped by for a bite and everything—from the coffee to the pastries and the sandwiches—was absolutely amazing.
​If you're in the area and looking for a top-tier lunch or morning pick-me-up, this is the spot. Phenomenal food and great quality. We will definitely be back!“

“Came here around 9:30am from coffee. This coffee shop is in the lobby of an office building. Pretty easy to find and the staffs were very friends. The pastries looked good but we didn't get any since it is later in the morning. I ordered a Latte, 12oz. I was originally going to order their 16oz latte but the barista told me that it's a quad shot, nevermind. Good latte, not bitter, darker roast, no complains. Will definately come back again.“
