You must try this local bakery/cafe! I love visiting and exploring local spots, especially when you can tell the owner(s) have put a lot of labor and love into their business.

Ambiance is peaceful and this is a great spot to get some work done. I’ve been here a few times and there will be people working at their tables.

Don’t get me started on their baked goods and desserts!!! The service is so warm and friendly and they were happy to answer questions I had about what Alfajores and Fugazetta were.

Highly recommend trying the alfajores (not too sweet!) and the fugazetta empanada. I also adore the spinach and cheese pastry. Get whatever you think you’d like. You won’t be disappointed!

Loved the warm welcome and the delicious sweets, croissants, and cakes with a unique Argentinian flavor. I'm glad I discovered this place—quick dine in or grabbing something to go with a hot cup of coffee. Highly recommended to stop by and give it a try!

My celiac friend and I checked it out one morning. There was plenty of seating on a weekday morning around 9am. Service was outstanding at Lolita - friendly, courteous and knowledgeable. Given it was our first time there, we had a lot of questions. We both felt like we got excellent recs to help us decide what to order. We both got a coffee drink each (they came in ceramic ware, yay!). My friend got the mushroom quiche and I got a scrumptious guava pastry. We were asked if we wanted our food warmed up. My pastry was perfectly warmed up - it got crispy, but not greasy. I would have preferred it to be a little less sweet, but my fault for not asking for a recommendation for a slightly sweet treat. My friend appreciated that the quiche was full of mushrooms and not super eggy. My friend and I were catching up after a long time and sat there for nearly two hours. We didn't feel rushed, nor did it feel like they'd forgotten about us. Just right hospitality!
There are so many other treats I want to try. I will definitely be back.

So glad this place popped up on Google search. Loved my cappuccino and had a roasted veggie and a butternut squash empanada. So good. Crispy on the outside and moist inside. Loved it. Now deciding on what to get for sweet…

Everything at Lolita Bakery Café is absolutely delicious! I’ve been there many times, and every single time I love it. Whenever I have friends visiting, I always take them there and they all love it too! The atmosphere is super cozy and welcoming, and the service is always great. Silvia, the owner, is a wonderful person, so kind and friendly. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a charming café with amazing food and a lovely vibe. It’s a true gem!

I've stopped by Lolita every few months for a while now. And it's consistently worth the stop!

Had the mate cocido and milohas recently. Both were great!

Wow! Wow! Wow! Exquisite bakery treats! This is the best kept secret in Silicon Valley. A true Argentinean bakery!! The owners take pride in quality ingredients, traditional family recipes, and old fashioned, customer service. You can try something new and appreciate the flavors and quality of craftsmanship. This is the winner for bakeries! ENJOY!
