delicious pastries, very Italian spot, nice off-the-beaten path place too for breakfast/lunch

Nice little place....out of the way and not a pleasant walk in an industrial area with no sidewalks....

The rumors are true. This place is the bees knees. The fare is excellent and the staff is warm and helpful. Not the cheapest, but good things rarely are.

Food is amazing, got a pretty good Mocha. Attendant was super sweet and helpful

Ive been coming here for years and their food is always fresh, delicious, and reasonably priced. Great front counter people who are always pleasant and work as quickly as possible.

This is one of my favorites places to have a breakfast. I try to come here at least once a week. 1M% recommended! ❤️

Random days are the best. I was driving outside my usual confines to do a bit of donating.
While on my drive, I noticed a white pickup mirroring my moves. Eventually, I let them draw alongside. The driver was one of you 💕 he threw out a 🤙🏻. I was overjoyed and threw out a ✌️🤙🏽.
Found myself at Cafe Gran Milan and man oh man. This place, hidden from everyone, was packed to the rafters. A long line out the door and not a single unhappy patron.
I met a man and his partner who regaled me with tales of places as good as this. The man runs a bar called Toot’s. If anyone partakes, say hi.
The owner, staff and everyone who comes through these doors seem to be the happiest people on Earth.
I left satisfied wishing I’d found this place years ago.

This is a real deal European confectionery. What they do is clearly the best.

I had cannolo, and another party with ricotta and candied orange. And cappuccino. Great quality and taste. Highly recommend it if you are in the area. Let the industrial exterior not fool you
Hands down the best Italian cafe in the Bay area. Besides the efficient service and cute cafe set up, their food is just next level. Their foccacia is absolutely excellent: very airy and crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside, served either with delicious toppings or with their paninis. The toppings and panini fillings are simple yet very flavorful; you can tell that it's true italian craftsmanship. The whole experience leaves you craving more (aka very easy to overeat!) Their pastries are also perfectly light and sweet, and they seem to often have new items in rotation so there's always something new to try. Overall, kudos to the Chef. Always impressed every time I come and always spend way too much here (but happy to do so ?).

Ditch the donuts and treat yourself to a delicious pastry. Hidden little gem just off I-80 at the Central Ave off ramp. Fresh baked pastries with ample tasty fillings. Best pastries in the Bay area.

Hidden in the middle of the commercial and industrial office spaces, Gran Milan is a pleasant find. Italian Owner and Chef translates to excellent Coffee, Baked Goods, the Morning Bun Sandwiches, Paninis and Pizza! They bake everything in-house, make sure to try the Olive Bread sticks among other deliciousos! Simply, good food, good people, good service.
