I was planning to write a review, but before I write any review I do read the others. Could be that we got lucky, as visitors from SoCal, visiting the Mission, but we had an absolutely wonderful experience here, the food was outstanding, mozzarella, pesto, tomato, with balsamic drizzle croissant is the kind of thing you would want as the answer to a meal you would have for the rest of your life if you could only have one meal😋. We also had the chocolate cherry scone and a bagel and cream cheese, both above average as was the latte👍. Not cheap, but in this day and age, nothing is cheap, the customer service was top notch and the ambiance is wonderful.

The pastries are homemade on-site, and sometimes, there are delicious FREE samples. A pleasant place to relax, read, or have a conversation.

We were just in town for a few days for work and decided to try Pink Owl to start our day before a long drive home.

We each had a tasty latte and croissant, the service was super friendly, very quick, and as stated, food and drink were quite tasty.

I'll be sure to visit next time I pass through town, hopefully next time I'll have a little more of an opportunity to sit and relax in the cozy seats and relaxed atmosphere.

*** Better prices, atmosphere, food, and service than the other caffe we visited.

Muffin was dried out and flavorless. Also coffee was weak. Floor and tables not cleaned. I won’t be back. Lovely comfortable place to hang out and staff are pleasant. Decent low level music playing in the background. Too bad the coffee and especially the food did not live up to expectations.

Great place for gluten free stuff. With sandwiches/toasts you get more food than with regular bread--since the slices are smaller, they just give two portions. I got toast with turkey and cheese and it was like 3 meals.

Even at my least lactose tolerant, I cannot fathom spending $1.25 on a dairy milk alternative. I can buy an entire carton of soy or almond milk for 1.25. I understand a slight surcharge (.25 or .50 being standard), and maybe .75 at airports or Vegas, but $1.25 truly made my jaw drop. My business is lost at that price. Management, please reconsider this. Sincerely, your lactose intolerant and angry clientele

I love them, each person.

My friend said the food here is quite tasty, but I haven't tried it yet. My matcha was also mixed quite well, but for me it wasn't very strong, I prefer more tea flavor.

The plus point is that there are all kinds of sugar for me to choose from, from diet sugar to stevia,... The space of the shop, in my opinion, is cozy and warm, creating a pleasant feeling and making us want to chat with each other. The shop is also not noisy even though there are many customers.

After a long week, I had a great nights rest. This was followed by my morning espresso at the Pink Owl Coffee Shop in San Rafael, California. I went inside this beautiful coffee shop on a casual...(was it a Thursday?) morning and proceeded to ogle the menu, the ambience, the casual conversations, the "clickety-clackity's" of various students and entrepreneurs on their laptops. As I ordered my coffee and pastry, I found a nice seat outside in the sun by the window. As I am not from California, I promptly moved from that good spot to another good spot...in the shade. While waiting for my pastry to be warmed, I was able to talk to a local guest and inquire on all there is to do in San Rafael.
This coffee shop is IT. You can enjoy all the have to offer and possibly a nice conversation with one of their weekly locals.
I think I stumbled upon a good one yall!!!

Let the Pink Owl Coffee shop be your next morning stop for a casual morning beverage and book or a quiet meeting with friends or coworkers.

Cheers!!!
