Lovely little cafe, lots of character. Espresso drinks were delicious, dine in has beautiful mugs. It was a little busy but didn’t have to wait too long to get our food!
Nice cozy place with slow music. Coffee tasted great with scone. Very relaxing atmosphere. Loved the place and will definitely recommend.

The best little coffee shop in Silicon Valley. Of course, you have to appreciate quaint, unique, owner-run and loved and cared for places. In short - non chain.

Food tasted very good, good quality, I recommend their strawberry raspberry banana smoothie. They close their grill at 2:30 (30 minutes before closing) so if you want a hot sandwich, get it before then :) I enjoyed my tomato mozzarella panini and my friend really enjoyed the pastrami melt.
This is my favorite coffee shop! I go almost weekly. Great coffee and food. I’ve been going here since it opened in the late 90s. And it still has that cozy coffeehouse vibes that’s hard to find these days. And it’s been consistently good. My favorites are a mocha or cappuccino, the BLT sandwich, the chicken Caesar wrap or the breakfast sandwich. Always fresh ingredients. They have cozy indoor seating and an outdoor patio amongst roses and palm trees. Lots of parking! It’s the perfect spot to have a cup of coffee and read a book. Or meet friends for a simple and delicious lunch.

Cute little cafe in a run down strip mall. Eclectic collection of things. Decent choice of sandwiches, drinks and pastries.

Cozy, welcoming neighborhood cafe with something for everyone - old fashioned candies, stacks of National Geographic magazines, an extensive brunch menu, and cute mugs and serving ware that make you feel like you’re in someone’s home. In an era where the minimalist modern cafes have become ubiquitous, this charming neighborhood cafe is a special place to spend an hour or two.

It was a very busy time and the tables were full. The noise level was cacophonous. The line to the counter was a bit of a gantlet. That being noted, the coffee was delicious as well as the pastries. I had empathy for the lone barista doing everything, while I did observe somebody in the back area with a broom occasionally walking back and forth but not stepping forward to take orders or help.

This is a great little community café, that is hard to notice, if you don't know where to look, along Union Ave., in the Cambrian Shopping Center. Plenty of parking, quirky atmosphere with lots of teapots & coffee urns lining the window and shelves. There is a couch and a few small tables inside, as well as bar seating along the window, and some seating outside on the patio. Whether dining alone or meeting up with a friend or two, it is a cute little place to dine, if you are in the area; especially as, many restaurants in the area have shut down. The food is good and often comes with healthy side dishes. Sandwiches are served with a small side salad of cucumbers/tomoatoes/feta/onion, and a little side of fruit. Chai tea is served in a big glass mug and is delicious. Crepes are a nice option, but for some reason you have to ask for that menu or look for it on the counter, as it isn't posted with their other food. It is a quaint, teashop-vibe café, that appears to be a place some of the locals gather to catch up with each other. Unfortunately, it may not be around for much longer, as there are big construction plans for that mall, and they will likely be tearing things down, which is sad. It is a very nice, non-chain restaurant option with great food options.
this is a really good place to come to to finish some work. Drinks are nice and the faces here are friendly. There are not to many places that are as comfortable that allow you to work in peace
Warning: The internet gets slow when there are more people in the shop.
Cute and cozy atmosphere, the Prosciutto Panini is really great and the white mocha was tastey. Would definitely come back for a brunch date!
Great coffee, food, ambience, and service. We had cappuccino, smoked salmon bagel, pierogi, savory crepe, caprese salad, and everything was yummy.
