50 Best Cafes near Millbrae

“Great 👍 🔥🔥🔥🔥😜😜🔥😜😜😜😜😜😜🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥“

“This restaurant has it all. The food is outstanding. If you want pancakes that remind you of the pancakes that were so delicious and cooked to perfection by your Mom, Peter's is the place to go. You want a REAL fresh cooked hamburger and cooked to your likes, Peter's is the place. I've eaten hamburgers in alot of restaurants. No one and I mean no one makes a hamburger that comes anywhere close to Peter's hamburger! I can't make a hamburger that good in my own kitchen and believe me I've tried. The atmosphere is calm and relaxing. Great place to have breakfast or lunch with a friend and not be rushed. Peter and his staff makes sure each customer feels special. The portions of food allow you to have another meal at home. My friend and I can't say enough good things about Peter's Cafe. BEST CAFE IN MILLBRAE!!“

“My first introduction to brazilian food was a coxinha. I wanted to taste it before I got home, but it didn't even make it home, it was so good. I love the krispy texture outside and then the creaminess of the mixture inside, its just beautiful. And for those who don't like spice, this is the perfect amount of heat. I would have preferred to have a little spicier, but those who cannot handle heat,this is really good.
I also had their carrot cake and there corn cake. Both good.“

“I recently visited this place and had an amazing experience! They’ve changed the owner and upgraded the menu. It definitely deserves a five-star review. The food quality is exceptional, especially the bubble waffle-my fav item! The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful~ they were promoting new product and offered me a few samples to try. The boba is simply amazing I can't get enough of their fruity matcha—it's a perfect blend of flavors that I highly recommend trying“

“todo en general desde su café hasta su comida“

“Ordered an Ethiopia Guji Uraga and it was really good. Magnitudes better than anything from Starbucks.

I don't really get the bad reviews talking about bad or tasteless coffee. Maybe most people associate coffee with burnt beans combined with tons of milk and sugar, as served in some coffeehouse chains.

Watching the beans being roasted and transfered between the storage for green beans, roasted beans and the coffee machines via tubes is also quite a show.“

“Stopped in for coffee, a very kind gentleman agreed to sit with my 11.5 month old Golden Retriever outside. Nice woman behind counter said my dog was welcomed in, my dog doesn't have enough manners to go inside, yet!
Ordered an Americano, kind woman asked if I'd like an ice cube in coffee, as it was way too hot to drink. Glad she was thinking as it was perfect!! Still hot, love LOVE my HOT black coffee. Without the 1 ice cube, I would have to wait for caffeine consumption!
The other woman behind the counter was making a beautiful bowl.. not sure what it was but it looked delicious!!!! Going back this week to try !!!

The gentleman that sat with my dog volunteers with human society and he educated me on the correct walking leash for my dog and informed me of puppy classes!! Super grateful, as I just moved from Detroit!

Great restaurant to stumble upon! Highly recommend!“

“Great place and great coffee“

“Great coffee, friendly service, good for plane spotting!“

“We had food, coffee, and dessert, and enjoyed it all. A nice selection of games, including some more basic games for free. A cozy wood vibe, with beautiful board game art featured on the walls. Their music was fun, too! Wish I could take this cafe to my city!“

“Fiero Cafe is truly a hidden gem in San Mateo! From the moment you walk in, you can feel the passion and authenticity behind everything they do. Filippo Guarino, the owner, pours his heart into every dish, and it shows. His handcrafted Italian food is nothing short of extraordinary, fresh ingredients, rich flavors, and the kind of attention to detail you only find in true Italian cooking.

I tried the catzo sandwich, and it was fantastic, perfectly balanced and absolutely delicious. On top of the food, Filippo makes you feel like family, welcoming you with warmth and genuine hospitality.

If you’re looking for an authentic Italian dining experience in the Bay Area, Fiero Cafe is a must. Do yourself a favor and go, you’ll leave planning your next visit before you even walk out the door.“

“i i went to your cafe today but they said its close its only 2pm … in the flyers it said there close at 3pm .“

“Love the indoor/patio ambience Menu selection,,,food ,,,,especially variety of bruschettas Drink selection as well,,,, mimosas,,,sangria Would like more live music“

“The food, AMAZING. The Nutella crepe was really light and fluffy tasting and I wouldn’t consider it as an overpowering sweetness. The decor was really cute really gave a vintage vibe. The wait was kind of long (15-20 min)but not really considering there were two workers. (I think everyone was talking about 1 person cooking all the food and 1 person serving the food and helping out in the kitchen, and yes the cook is really old, very impressive)“

“I just had a chai tea latte with almond milk and a breakfast croissant sandwich (egg, cheese, avocado, tomato, lettuce) at Antigua Coffee Shop. The ladies here are so kind, the Christmas decorations are everything, and they’re playing Christmas music. If this is your favorite holiday and you’re in the city I’d check them out. 10/10 I’ll be back to try the banana French toast and omelettes.“

“good food Coffey and people“

“Fritters are great for a treat“

“They didn't substitute my beans but everything else was amazing that's it's 5 stars all around. Their Mole Poblano saves you a plane ticket to Puebla, Mexico to try true authenticity. You don't have to go to Puebla, just be near Daly City and stop at LA Joya Cafe“

“Amazing food & amazing staff!!“

“Salmon crepe, potatoes crispy. Walnut raisin French toast, six(6!) pieces. Coffee. Order at counter, brought to table. Friendly, helpful, staff. Presentation and taste excellent! And plentiful. Not noisy, easy to talk. Staff accommodating for 2 larger groups that came in, two small street tables. Service not too long, no rush. Will come back to try other items.

Kid-friendliness: High chairs“

“Great food and love the outside seating. so quant and cozy. Chinese chicken salad is delicious. very friendly staff. I only wish they had the nutrition info next to the items on the menu for those of is that like to keep track.“

“Good for a quick bite. I like the local feel of the place but it can get very crowded, especially on the weekends so I'm glad for the outdoor tables. I like to stop by when I'm going to hang out near Ocean Beach. The food is tasty!“

“Must try 🍽️
Berry French Toast ( Best ) 🍓
It had a chocolate filling ( tastes like Cadbury dairy milk), perfectly cooked, not too sweet and covered w strawberries.

Tomato mozzarella sandwich
Fresh , the bread was a little hard but the flavor made up for it!!
Comes with a side salad!!

Overall, the place was chill and cute. Perfect spot for a brunch. The food is a win. Totally recommend it to anyone who loves healthy drinks and yum food.“

“Located in the Ingleside neighborhood, Purtea offers a variety of tea drinks along with snacks to go with your drink. Upon entering the tea shop, patrons are greeted with a cute floral-themed interior. You can order via their kiosk or in-person with the cashier.

We decided to go with their classic milk tea and orange green tea. The classic milk tea was a true representation of milk tea, in which the sweetness and milk was not too overpowering and the tea in the drink still shined through. If you're read any of my reviews before, you know I love my fruit teas, and orange green tea is one of my absolute favorites. The orange green tea from Purtea does not disappoint and I would go back to order it again without a doubt. While I did not sample any of their appetizers and snacks this time around, I'll be sure to do so next time if I'm looking for a bite to eat.

If you're in the Ingleside - Ocean Avenue area and find yourself craving tea drinks or snacks, then Purtea is the pur-fect spot for you!“

“The ice coffee ☕ was delicious and pastries“

“Columbian food - very authentic, flavorful and hearty.“

“I have been here many times mainly when I am craving for a doughnut or when I am in the area where I am in need of a quick bite. They have a wide selection of fresh doughnuts made daily, sandwiches, coffee, refrigerated drinks and much more. The staffs here are very welcoming, well trained and understanding where I never had encountered an issue during any of my visits. You can dine in at one of their tables or simply purchase for takeout if you decide to. I have to say this place is a plus, because there are little to none doughnut shops within the area. I highly recommend this place to all doughnut enthusiasts, if you need a quick snack for the morning of if you just so happen to be in the area. I definitely will be back to tryout the other delicious options they have to offer.“

“Cute place, friendly service, nice atmosphere, great white hot chocolate.“

“I missed the drop off day for donating for the animals in need. Stopped by there this morning with a donation. Loved the greeting with a smile that I received when I walked in by the young man behind the counter. he was totally surprised when I handed him an envelope and explained that I had missed the drop off date. Now I know why this Cafe receives 5 stars, very friendly atmosphere. I will be back!!“

“Stoped by for a fresh breakfast to start the day. I was promptly greeted and helped to order an omelette. I dined in and enjoyed the breakfast. It’s nice to be able to get freshly prepared food close to the hotel to start the day out. I’m looking forward to trying out lunch next time in town.“

“very good prices recommend their peruvian coffee with a lox bagel. friendly staff“

“My wife and I really enjoyed our dinner at Acova. The menu is very interesting and varied. My wife had fish and chips and I chose the beef short ribs. Both dishes were super. Our server was helpful and attentive. We appreciate the fairly low noise level so we could have a comfortable conversation. Thank you.“

“The ambience is Japanese minimalist. Baristas are friendly. But more importantly the coffee is just perfect. My fave coffee spot in San Mateo. There's always a line though and if you want to sit in, good luck. It's a small place with not a lot of seating.“

“The bagels were incredibly fresh—crispy on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside, just the way they should be. What really stood out was the wide selection of bagels and spreads. The variety of cream cheeses and other spreads is just as impressive—perfect for mixing and matching. Definitely a must-visit for any bagel lover!“

“Corner shop with a tight, tasty menu. I had the breakfast burrito with chorizo and it took me back to a simpler time. My buddy switches between that and bacon because they are both so good.

The cafe con leche is sweet and delicious treat.“

“OMG these are the cutest! My favorite is the Mango passion fruit eclair, one time I got it with the filling still frozen inside and it’s seriously even better 😆 I wish we can have that option haha! Anyway best wishes and thanks for the pleasant experience as usual.“

“They make a really good flat white & their pastries are quite delectable!🥰“

“I had to stop by Royal Donut Cafe because of all of the great reviews I saw on Yelp! And I must say that I wasn't disappointed at all! The staff was awesome! From the cashier, to the cooks, and the server. And I even got a chance to meet the owner, Terri, who has taken over the business for the past 15 years! Definitely going to be a regular here! I ordered the vegetarian omelet! 😋“

“Great food and friendly folks. We love this place! Try the crab cakes eggs Benedict. Yumm“

“Absolute delight to get sandwiches from Steve's Café!!Our family favorites are Pesto chicken, Tuna melt and meatballs.Love the freshly baked brownies. Our school caters from Steve's and each time quality is superb and great tasting food items. Thank you so much for serving us.“

“I got a Salame Sandwich and small Mexican hot chocolate which I thought was good. I think the sitting area is decent but small with mainly bar stools. Luckily, the place wasn't crowded so sitting on the round table in the middle didn't feel squishy“

“Love this place. It's been here since I was a kid. The owner is such a sweet lady and the rest of the staff are too. They always greet you with such kindness when you walk in. The food there is hella good. I love the special chicken and rice plate they have. They also serve breakfast and lunch and donuts :) plus it's right in front of a bus stop and opens at 5:30am“

“Nice, quiet spot where you order up front and they bring the food to you. I got the eggs benedict and it was cooked perfectly. Also I loved the hash brown as it was one crispy, delicious rectangle. Bottomless coffee and nice people. Would totally come back.“

“Great coffee and atmosphere!“

“Banana Foster French toast and their freshly squeezed orange juice.“

“Had Breakfast here during our stay in San Mateo. Our Hotel was nearby and didn't serve breakfast, after a quick search, decided to check out this place. Glad we did, great Coffee and Food. This was the first place we visited during our trip to San Francisco. It's located in an Office Building, lots of parking. What we loved too was how everyone here knew each other. Staff were very warm and friendly. Will definitely visit again.“

“Opens early enough to stop in before work to get a little something. Basic breakfast and donuts so nothing exciting. I will give 5 stars to the woman behind the counter. She is friendly and kind. Great attitude for the small in & out environment.“
