“Been here a few times and really like the spot. The drip coffee is delightful, but I’ve also gotten some really burned milk when I ordered a latte and another coffee for my wife. Hopefully they can work that out. Will continue to support this spot.“

“We recently went here after not going for a while and the food is just incredible. There was a time after they switched owners a few years back where things were a little bit rocky, but we recently went and it was incredible. Get the deviled egg sandwich. Highly recommended.“

“I’m highly recommend it ..I’m here every day“

“We ordered the house milk tea with boba and the twilight taro with boba - both with less sugar and less ice. They were both delicious! Personally I preferred the milk tea - but I tend to like that more usually anyways. Parking was a little difficult but service was quick!“

“All the in-house made items are amazing! Love this place! There is no day that isn’t made better by stopping here! 💗☕️“

“Lors de notre séjour à San Francisco nous avons découvert Le Marais Bakery. Nous avons ADORÉ, la nourriture est délicieuse et le service vraiment très chaleureux et très professionnel. L’équipe est souriante et au petit soin. N’hésitez pas à vous arrêter pour déguster les délicieuses viennoiseries et/ou les autres plats proposés, vous ne serez pas déçu(e)s!!“

“Awesome coffee and a very comfortable space to sit and enjoy the coffee.“

“This coffee shop is a must-visit in Novato!
Their Tuxedo coffee, a delicious white and black chocolate mocha, is clearly a local favorite. They also boast a great selection of tasty smoothies and a large menu with plenty of breakfast options. Despite a steady line of customers, even on weekdays, service is extremely fast – both food and coffee are ready in no time! While the scrambled eggs were a bit bland and the sandwich was just okay, the exceptional drinks and speedy, yet friendly, service make this a fantastic and relaxing spot.“

“Great coffee great service most of the time. People working there need to learn to communicate and let customers know when they are backed up so when they make an order, they understand how long it will take instead of letting them know after the fact.“

“I am proud to recommend Mrs Craig Vanessa for a selfless and reliable investment service. I was constantly looking for a reliable platform to invest and my friend introduced me to her platform and I realized this is the best platform to invest on because she maintains discipline in her investment relationship and strategies to ensure the complete transparency and credibility of her investors. She helped me gained $16,000 with just a capital of $2,000. If you want to be financially successful invest with her ASAP via WhatsApp through Facebook: Mrs Craig Vanessa“

“Delicious breakfast today at Kitchen Novato. I had a custom egg white omelet with spinach and avocado. it was SO delicious and fresh. I also had a double espresso which was fantastic. My server Phoebe was friendly and knowledgeable. wonderful experience and looking forward to my next visit!“

“This is my second time here, and I have to admit—I forgot the name after my first visit and had been trying so hard to remember it because the rare beef pho is hands down my favorite I've ever had. I was literally dreaming about it! I was ecstatic to stumble upon it again (especially since I live almost 2 hours from San Rafael).
The food is just so good. I’ll definitely be back for that rare beef pho again!“

“visiting from Portland and trying to dine local. This place was clean, prompt service and the food was so fresh and delicious. Looks like a place lots of locals come, always good. Good dog watching.“

“Fantastic tea and I’ve really only scratched the surface at R of T. I’ve been drinking the Cinnamon Cardamom tea for over 20 years and now buy the bulk 250 bag count. Perfect for in the evenings and before bed when a caffeinated hot beverage would otherwise keep a person awake.
The flavor is unmatched as I’m certain their other flavors must be.“

“Thai coffee beans caught my eye when this place showed up in a search. So, we went to check it out.
Location is in a strip mall close to the 101 freeway on-ramp and is surrounded by budget stores. Surroundings are modest and even though they have a couple outdoor seating options, the proximity to the freeway and associated noise made it less attractive to us. Indoors was pleasant but basic. Coffee and other beverages menu is extensive. A roaster is on display and they sell their beans by the pound. We had a flat white and a latte. The espresso flavor was nice, aromatic and smooth, a medium roast is my guess.
We would have liked to get a couple pastries but the choices did not look appealing. Asked the person at the cash register if the baked goods were made in house. Got a flat no and no further attempt to sell those products. So we passed and had just the coffee beverages.
Espresso drinks are reasonably priced and the quality was good, so we might go back when all we are looking for is just coffee“

“Cute mom and pop Korean cafe. Feels like a very casual Korean mom meal. Nothing fancy, but definitely prepared with love. Prices very reasonable and all house-made. Good banchan and good texture on the multigrain rice. Healthy and legit. Very happy to see the owner is actually a Korean and not a Caucasian person making mid-fake Asian fast casual food lol. Will def come back and keep supporting this business!“

“This place was really amazing. The weight staff was all great. They helped me out with a small issue. I had with my diabetes by providing me with some orange juice because my blood sugar had gotten low. I truly appreciate him doing that for me. Thank you so much and I will come back again next time I’m in San Diego.“

“A staple Mill Valley place to visit. Seems very popular on the daily with locals and visitors alike. I’m not a big coffee-drinker but I’ve been several times and can attest to the great atmosphere and pretty good food/drink options. Food options include sandwiches, pastries, and sweet/savory waffles. Indoor and outdoor seating available. However, because it’s so busy, if you sit down to the left of the entrance (opposite side from the counter where orders are placed), it’ll be hard to hear your order called. At least my experience has been this way where I’m waiting a while for my order to be called, finally get tired of waiting, walk over to check in with staff, only to find that my order is sitting on the counter but I never heard it called.

I got the veggie frittata sandwich and enjoyed it but generally, the food is a bit pricey for the portion size in my opinion. The drink I got was fairly good I think but honestly, not very memorable/standout because I don’t really remember it.“

“I love their lattes great staff very friendly!!!“

“Been coming here since I was a kid back in 1980’s Lorraine & Phil are very Sweet!? I feel like family here !!!“

“Beautiful place. Top notch friendly service. Delicious coffee. Sublime location.“

“Thank you Marin Coffee Roasters for supporting the Lucky Run this past Sunday to benefit Novato High School's Safe & Sober Grad Night. We appreciate you! Safe and Sober Grad of Novato“

“Absolutely delicious coffees and pastries!“

“The best. Fast, super tasty breakfast sandwiches and burritos, and delicious chai. Oh and they always give your dog a treat! A bonus is that when you tip them they profusely thank you, like much more than I would expect. I always tip but I do appreciate when it is acknowledged, and they always do!“

“The quintessential Fairfax experience.People watching over great house roast coffee any dreamy Marin day.One never knows who you might see in this formerly funky hippie town turned to upscale suburbs.There is a lot of genre to pick from.Weekend mountain bike thrill seekersCoastal hippies to gentrified Marin locals.They all swirl and mingle in the downtown intersection anchored by this hipster coffee house

Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs“

“The atmosphere was amazing and the food Devine. Service couldn’t be any better“

“After the first time, I can't stop myself from going back. As you know, San Rafael has wonderful coffee shops. I have not found a bad one this year. Now, The Peets' down by San Rafael High School has a student effect for Adults. I usually hit it about 7 p.m. Heading North of the Border. I need to be alert but, rested. I get that here, Good coffee, kick back chairs & free Wi-Fi to stay up to date. After the service I get, I like to tip...“

“We were driving through saucalito and stopped for some breakfast, ordered some orange juice, eggs benedict, pancakes, and smoked salmon open faced sandwich. Eggs benedict were delicious and poached perfectly, sauce was delicious as well. OJ was delicious and freshly squeezed, fruit was fresh, pancakes were delicious. Cute atmosphere and comfy casual tables.
Definitely recommend!“

“I went to Graffeo yesterday to pick up 14 bags of dark roast coffee (which is delicious), and had occasion to watch Joey prepare the bags. What an artist of efficiency!! I can’t imagine how anyone could do a better or faster job of grinding, bagging, and sealing bags of coffee—all while being very pleasant and customer-focused.“

“The best cappuccino in Marin hands down! Been going there for years -- the service has been consistently excellent and the pastries and cakes are quintessential Italian delicacies! Gary and Jeannie Rulli are the dedicated hands-on proprietors -- wonderful people and a blessing to our Larkspur community🥰!“

“I have always loved the Gloria Jeans drinks in fact I used to work at the Ontario Mills Mall in Ontario California at Gloria Jeans there it was owned by Katie Chuck a very nice lady to work for but unfortunately she closed her business I miss working there that was back in 2002 -2006 4 years I had worked for her I still know how to make every drink we had back then cold and hot drinks speciality drinks which were the holiday drinks I remember the measurements to brew coffee ☕️ for the day when you work there for that long everything sticks with you but as for today I’m sure many things have changed as the years went by but I do still see some of the same coffee beans we had back then I wish we had one here in applevalley California we used to have one in the Victorville Mall years ago but that one has gone out of business as well years ago please ?? someone bring Gloria Jeans back to the High desert of California Applevalley California we need one here desperately I’m so sick of Starbucks they overroast their beans which gives the drinks a burnt taste of course they will deny it there is nothing like a Gloria Jeans coffee ☕️ hot or cold simply the best you can’t get any better then Gloria Jeans Coffee..❤️“

“the ambience and great cuppachino“

“Delicious and extraordinary.“

“The girls who were working there this morning were FABULOUS! Audrey made my bowl with EXTRA granola, and I mean a heaping portion!!
I got my Hawaiian bowl and I was expecting a small size like Jamba Juice usually gives, but for $14 you’re getting a huge açai bowl!! So happy!!
So delicious!“

“Very good coffee. The workers there are courteous and fast getting your order to you. I usually stop at this Novato location after I get off of a Golden Gate Transit coach from San Francisco, get my coffee, sit at one of the outside tables and relax before calling a LYFT car to go and visit with relatives. PEETE'S great coffee would be so much better if it could be served at a temperature where I would be forced to sipp it.“

“The fish and chips are delicious!! Im a Brit so eaten a lot of them and must say that these were definitely in the top 3! Fish was super fresh and the batter nice and light.
I also had the huevos rancheros for breakfast on a different day and they were also great, nice blue corn tortillas!
Has a lovely back patio or you can sit out front and people watch. Dog friendly ?‍
Very friendly servers and chill relaxed vibe.“

“FIRST TIME HERE TODAY! MY SISTER TOLD ME IT WAS BETTER THEN STARBUCKS AND I CAN SMELL THE COFFEE SMELLS GREAT!! ALSO BONNIE WAS AWSOME GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE BONNIE THANK YOU!! STARBUCKS WILL NOT HAVE MY MONEY FROM NOW ON IM COMING TO THIS COFFEE PLACE“

“Clean. No trouble finding parking. I went to this location twice in one week. Both times it was not crowded. I'm sure they get rushes, but it was nice to be able to get in and out with ease. Walk in only. No drive thru. Standard Starbucks quality coffee. Nice location.“

“This place is the best and I hope they never close! I grew up in the area but now live out of the country and my family has relocated to the east bay but I still make the 60 min drive all the way to Jelly Donut whenever I come to visit them. The owners are super friendly and generous, often throwing in an extra freebie too. We've tried 4 other donut shops in the east bay and none are even close to as good as these. Long live Jelly Donut!“

“When I went there, they had no lines and the churros were only $2.84 for 3 churros. They were very kind to me and quick to serve. I was craving for churros and started searching. Lo and behold, there is a churro restaurant just exclusively churros set aside sandwiches and smoothies but now I know there is a churro place when I am craving for churros

Parking: Good luck finding a place to park as their parking lot is a shared lot.“

“I'm so glad I visited this place on a beautiful sunny Sunday! Can't believe I always walked by it. It has an amazing selection of fine chocolates with excellent customer service! Will visit again to try out a couple more chocolate bars. A nice gem which showcases a variety of chocolates from around the world!“

“Ordered the mini Tortes during the Covid-19 stay time and got them in 24 hours at home and they were incredible! Well with it. Recommend for those gluten free and they have vegan friendly items!!“
